DISCUSSION OF TRAVEL AND TOURISM REQUEST FOR FUNDS: Chairman Sloan called the meeting to order
and the board began discussing the proposal for the Statesville Travel and Tourism Board. The two
questions to be answered were: (1) Are you goina to continue to extend these funds for anything
besides the civic center? (2) If so, how much?
Commissioner Stewart suggested that the county commissioners have a meeting with the
Statesville City Council members and iron out the plan for funding with the hotel/motel tax. The
board discussed when would be the best time to do this. It was suggested that the commissioners
request to get on the July 15th agenda.
It was mentioned that the City had funded the Carolinas Partnership and the Dogwood Festival
out of the Travel and Tourism Funds.
After further discussion Commissioner Mitchell said he would make a motion to extend the sunset
clause for an additional year and fund the Statesville Travel and Tourism Board at $27,000 or 10% of
the Hotel/Motel Taxes, whichever is less. This motion is to be made by Commissioner Mitchell at the
7:00 p.m. meeting.
Commissioner Alice Stewart said she wished to be replaced on the Travel and Tourism Board.
The board members also concurred that the Citv of Statesville should be notified that the
County wanted the use of the hotel/motel funds to be restricted to the Travel and Tourism Board and
for the Civic Center.
COLONEL SHARPE HOUSE: Mr. James Walker, director of the Iredell Arts Council, came to the
board in reference to an offer from Mrs. Knox who owns the Colonel Sharpe house. Mrs. Knox wishes
to give the house to the County. She has had $250,000 worth of renovations done to the house. She
has no heirs and wishes that the property be held for the public. Mr. Walker said the house could
be used for meetings and office space. The property has been declared tax exempt.
After further discussion, the board directed the county manager or his designee to look into
this. The county manager is to check the condition of the facility and look into some possible uses
for the house and report back to the board.
TURNER STIMPSON: Mr. Stimpson has requested to address the board about a possible position for
himself as a driver of a handicapped van throughout the county to pick up the elderly to deliver
them to the doctors' offices and other places they need to go. Mr. Stimpson has been voluntarily
doing this for about two years, but he now finds it necessary to earn an income and thinks this
would be a good way. He had proposed a budget consisting of a salary for himself, the purchase of a
van and a cellular phone.
