DISCUSSION OF IREDELL COUNTY JAIL MEEDS: Commissioner Boone
mentioned that a representative from J.N. Pease discussed several
alternatives at the agenda briefing.
Commissioner Johnson said that he had been a little uneasy
about a possible Burke/Catawba/Iredell arrangement. it would
provide some relief; however, a lot of tax money will be going
fifty miles up the road to Burke County.
NOTION from Commissioner Johnson to not adopt the Burke-
Catawba-Iredell Regional Jail Authority and pursue other options.
Commissioner Boone said that he had been the commissioner
appointee on the discussions pertaining to this matter. He
mentioned that the original proposal from the architects was to
build a large expansion to the existing jail; however, if the jail
in renovated to over 50% of its value it has to be renovated to
1995 standards. Boone mentioned that he had problems doing this --
the current jail was fine -- it didn't need to be any nicer. "We
just need more room. "There's people out on the street right now
that belong in jail; however, there's not room to house them."
