MEDICAL WASTE AT THE LANDFILL: Mr. Mashburn showed photos and a video presentation of medical
waste being received at the landfill and how it endangers the health of the landfill staff. The
consensus of the board after this presentation was that after July 1, 1992 the county would no
longer accept medical waste at the landfill. Staff was instructed to go ahead and draft the change
required in the existing landfill ordinance for presentation at the next meeting of the board, which
will be June 16, 1992.
AGREEMENT BETWEEN TOWN OF HARMONY, SHERIFF'S OFFICE, AND IREDELL COUNTY REGARDING LAW ENFORCE-
MENT AT HARMONY: The sheriff is being requested to send someone to the Town Board meetings once a
quarter to keep the town board up-to-date on the law enforcement matters. The contract is being
placed on the consent agenda.
DISCUSSION OF THE COUNTY'S AGREEMENT WITH MITCHELL COLLEGE AND ASMO REGARDING TRAINING FOR ASMO
EMPLOYEES: This matter was discussed by Chairman Sloan who said he had met with Asmo on Friday, May
29, 1992. It seems that some changes have been made; however Asmo is still about $400,000 short.
Mr. Sloan and Mr. Joel Mashburn plan to meet with Mr. Alva Ward from the Commerce Department on July
11, 1992, to discuss this further.
SAFEKEEPERS - MEDICAL COST: As of May 26, 1992 Iredell County would owe $15,638 for medical
care under the newly proposed program. The NCACC position is they support the billing to the
counties for services charged outside; however if the state staff gives the medical assistance, no
charge should be rendered to the counties. The NCACC also opposes retroactive billing for this
service.
TOWN OF DAVIDSON AND WATER LINE ISSUE: Mayor Russell Knox of Mooresville wants to talk with
the Davidson board and will call Commissioner Haire. Mayor Knox wants to meet with two members of
the county commissioners and two members of his board again. Commissioner Haire was asked to handle
the matter.
TRI -COUNTY MENTAL HEALTH: Commissioner Haire arrived late at the briefing because she had been
meeting with the Tri -County Mental Health Board and persons from State office regarding matters with
the Tri -County agency. Commissioner Haire said she was to receive a written report in a couple of
weeks and she would share the report when she receives it.
COUNTY LINE SURVEY: Mr. Lundy reported they should be finished with the county line boundaries
in the next thirty days. They are not going to shoot the corners until all the resolutions are
signed.
NECK NECK: Mr. Mashburn has received a call from one of the assistant county managers of
Mecklenburg, who wants to meet with him in regard to Meck Neck. It was stated that Iredell County
would be willing to take Meck Neck into Iredell County but would not be willing to trade.
COUNTY FLAG: The staff was directed to come up with a design for a county flag for the
board's approval.
