PUBLIC HEARINGS
Chairman Tice declared the meeting to be in a public hearing.
REQUEST FROM THE STONY POINT/EAST ALEXANDER VOLUNTEER FIRE
DEPARTMENT FOR PERMISSION TO INCREASE ITS AREA OF DISTRICT: Iredell
County Fire Marshal Gallyon, along with West Iredell Fire Department Chief Ronda Hoke,
Alexander Fire Marshal Russell Greene, the Stony Point Fire Department Board Chairman Roger
Starnes, and the Stony Point Volunteer Fire Department Chief Steve Lackey, attended the meeting-
Gallyon said the hearing involved the Stony Point VFDs voted -in tax district. The area Stony Point
desires to include has not been included in the past. The Stony Point VFD currently responds to
calls in the area, and therefore, requests for the tax money to be appropriated to it rather than the
county -wide district. Gallyon mentioned the West Iredell district would remain the same. He also
said the point-to-point description would be written and sent to Raleigh. Later, Gallyon said, the
district description would need further approval by the board of commissioners.
No one else spoke, and Chairman Tice adjourned the hearing.
MOTION by Commissioner Bowles to approve the request to change the Stony Point i East
Alexander Volunteer Fire Department's area of district.
VOTING: Ayes - 5; Nays - 0.
In reference to the previous request (petition from the Mayhew family to rename Bra" ley
School Road), Fire Marshal Gallyon said that with 911 addressing and the emergency
communications system, it would have been very costly for the county to make the address
changes.
