requested holding off on Brawley and South Iredell School until the report is available. It is
estimated that it will take $12 million to do the requested changes at West Middle School, the
renovations at Statesville Middle School, and the major renovations at each of the five high
schools. There are no renovations being mentioned at the elementary schools.
The board mentioned a bond referendum or another type of financing for the school capital
projects. It was mentioned that one cent will generate approximately $443,500 under the 1992
property values.
In discussing the plans for the county budget next year, Commissioner Madison mentioned cutting
the departmental budgets by 10%. Mr. Mashburnh said he did not have a clear directive. He said he
would do the best he could to hold the line in the budget.
Commissioner Madison said he was thinking of 95% of last year's budget, exclusive of Capital
needs. If the staff can accomplish this task then that will help a lot with the school needs.
Commissioner Madison said he thought we should look very seriously at the sheriff's cars. He
especially mentioned the sheriff's cars in the community. Commissioner Mitchell inquired if the
county manager knew if the bailiffs take their county cars home in the surrounding counties. The
cost of food for the jail was mentioned.
WATER AND SEWER DISCUSSED: Mr. Carson Fisher discussed the water and sewer authority with the
board. He mentioned putting a letter together to send out to the members of the committee on water
and sewer. The areas of concern are:
1. What are the rates going to be?
2. How does the City entice the industries to be voluntarily annexed when they
no longer have control of the water and sewer?
The meeting adjourned at 6:30 p.m. and was to reconvene at 7:30 p.m., in the Commissioners'
Meeting Room of the Iredell County Government Center.
