example did not include the other county departments that were being provided, e.g., sheriffs
department, EMS, etc. Pope reiterated that it was the industrial base that allowed Iredell County to
provide county services at one of the cheapest tax rates in North Carolina. He said that in order to

water, and one that paid good wages, it was a win-win situation.
