PURCHASE OF KEWAUNEE BUILDING LOCATED ON HIGHWAY 21 NORTH: Mr. Mashburn, county manager, advised everything was now in order for closing of the Kewaunee building project. Mr. Pope ex- plained the statutory scheme that is being used for the financing. The building would stand for the debt, and the contract of purchase between Iredell County and Kewaunee will be assigned to First Union National Bank. Iredell County will then enter into a lease -purchase agreement with First Union for a term of approximately ten years with an interest rate of approximately 7.25% per annum. The annual rent will amortize the original purchase price and the cost of all improvements. The faith and credit of the county will not be pledged, nor will the taxing authority of the county be pledged. The worse case scenario, Mr. Pope said, is if the county doesn't make the payments, First Union will keep the building. If payments are made, Pope said, at the end of the term the building will belong to Iredell County. Mr. Pope said the existing Industrial Revenue Bonds on the property will be retired. North Carolina National Bank owns the bonds and they have consented to release this property from all liens it may hold. MOTION from Commissioner Stewart to authorize the Chairman or Vice Chairman of the Iredell County Commissioners and the Clerk to the Board to execute such documents as are deemed necessary by legal counsel to close the transaction in the manner contemplated here tonight, using the Statutory 153-A-165 scheme, and further authorizing the assignment of the contract of purchase between Iredell County and Kewaunee to First Union National Bank, the execution of a lease purchase agreement between First Unional National Bank as Lessor and Iredell County as Lessee and such other documents as might be deemed by legal counsel to be necessary to effect the closing. VOTING: Ayes - 5; Nays - 0. Mr. Pope said the signing had to take place by June 29, 1990. Mr. Bill Mashburn, director of the health department, expressed his appreciation to the board for the purchase of the building for the health department offices.
