Capital Outlay for the schools, and (2) the funding method.

Chairman Sloan said the next issue was how to fund this $15.6 million. He turned the gavel
over to Vice Chairman Haire so he could debate the issue. He gave a history of the county commis-
sioners' involvement in the school merger plan. He said the county commissioners have encouraged
the merger process and have made a commitment to fund the current expense budget and the capital
needs. He reviewed where Iredell County stands on funding and ability to pay as compared with the
other 99 counties in North Carolina using some 90-91 data.
MOTION from Chairman Sloan to implement the eight cents supplemental school tax as stated in
the schools' merger plan.
