Mr. Woodie and Mr. Mashburn described the plans for the transfer station. Mr. Mashburn said they were still looking for lower cost alternatives before the project is bid; however, a design must be submitted to Mooresville in order to receive the requested rezoning. Mr. Woodie said the road cost was not included in the final number on the former estimate. The total cost estimate is $1,206,415. The total amount including Capital Outlay-Equipment is estimated to be $1,593,607.

Mr. Woodie said it would be 90 days from starting the design to sending out bid requests. Mr. Woodie said he wants to be sure the proper zoning is in place before they begin working on design. He feels that it will be six months before the actual construction work can begin on the project, and that it will take six to eight months to finish the project. There will be no operating costs whatsoever for FY 95-96 FY. Mr. Mashburn asked Mr. Woodie if he anticipated increases that will modify the projected cost given this evening. Mr. Woodie said he did not know what the construction industry will do. He does not expect any drastic increases. He asked the board to remember that they were estimating off something that is not designed. It was stated that there would need to be $1.5 million in the 95-96 budget year.
