The following items were discussed under the manager's report:
UNITED WAY AGENCY'S REQUEST FOR PROGRAM ENTITLED "CAROLINA GIVES": The county manager advised
the group that the United Way Agency would like to make an appearance on July 24th requesting an
endorsement of "Carolina Gives."
CIVIL DISTURBANCE: Mr. Dickerson explained the necessity of adding a provision such as civil
disturbance to the county's emergency plan. This plan is currently being updated. The emergency
coordinator further explained that Annex 14 was simply an annex to the Iredell County Multi -Hazard
Plan. The current plan we are operating under was approved by the board on November 1988 along with
its ordinances and provisions at that time. Some items which he would like to add pertain to
hurricanes, tornados, severe winter weather, civil disturbance, and mass casualty. All that is
required for annexes is the approval of the county manager and the emergency management coordinator;
however, Mr. Dickerson would like to get the Board's approval. The county attorney stated he had
looked at the annex and examined the existing ordinance. The county attorney advised he did not
_.... have any problems with the annex and that the resolution did not require board action.
Mr. Dickerson advised the complete report would be back for board approval.
PRESERVATION OF FARM LANDS: The county attorney briefed the Board on the Preservation of
Farmland Act and his recommendation that the Board consider this proposal, even though it wasn't as
simple in reality as it is on paper. At this time it is unknown whether it has been adopted in any
counties, but with the situation we are confronting now with an area of 700 to 800 acres of prime
farmland being considered for acquisition by the state which would be permanently removed and
destroyed as farmland, it is something the county should investigate. Our county agricultural agent
has been written a letter about this, and he has probably already looked at the act.
MOTION from Vice Chairman Stewart to appoint Ken Vaughn and Jerry Lundy (staff member) to
research the issue and to report back with a recommendation to the Board by the next meeting. They
may request such other persons to assist as they deem necessary to assist them. In the interim
period it is requested that they confer with the county attorney.
VOTING: Ayes - 4; Nays - 0.

purpose of discussing personnel and property acquisition.
VOTING: Ayes - 4; Nays - 0.

constructing a hazardous waste facility and for the resolution to be forwarded to the North Carolina

Asheville. This resolution would include a statement that the board is not in favor of incineration
at all.
