development corporation of the Greater Statesville Chamber. In both corporations, the board agreed
that a county commissioner and/or county manager appointment to these boards, if made, should be ex -
officio, non-voting status. No decision was made about resuming membership; however, the board is

which will be held on January 16th at the COG dinner meeting in Statesville.
