the North Carolina Department of Transportation for SR 1613 - Clinker Brick Road:
During the briefing session, Planning Supervisor Steve Warren said the Statesville office of the
North Carolina Department of Transportation had submitted a petition request for the abandonment
of a section of SR 1613, Clinker Brick Road, from the state maintenance system. He said the
adjacent property owners had made the request due to a security concern, and a gate would be
erected at the entryway. Warren said Clinker Brick was an 18 foot wide gravel road,
approximately 1,405 ft. in length, with a "dead-end."
2. Request from the Iredell-Statesville School System for Approval of a Budget Amendment
for the Appropriation of Sales Tax Refunds: At the five o'clock meeting, h-edell-Statesville
Schools Finance Officer Kay Fulp requested approval of a $710,120 budget amendment due to the
appropriation of sales tax refunds. Fulp said the system initially planned to spend the money on
gymnasium air conditioning, but due to cash flow concerns, the funds would be held in current
expense for any costs associated with the bond transactions. She said the gym air conditioning
would still remain as the priority usage for the money, if not used for the bonds. (Superintendent
Holliday, also present at the briefing session, added that Union Grove Elementary needed windows
in its gym.)
3. Request for the Waiver of Bidding Requirements due to the "Piggybacking Exception"
for a Solid Waste Wheel Loader: Purchasing Agent Dean Lail and Solid Waste Director David
Lambert said at the briefing session that Mecklenburg County in 2005 bid out a wheel loader, and
the contract was still current. He said the loader's cost was $110,980.00, but additional
adjustments would be needed making the total amount required at $129,221. Lail said Iredell
County budgeted $160,000 for the equipment, and he recommended piggybacking onto
Mecklenburg's contract. He requested a waiver of the bidding requirements, and he said this was
permitted by N.C.G.S.143-129(g).
4. Request for the Transfer of Homeland Security Assets to Municipalities: Assistant
County Manager Tracy Jackson said at the 5 p.m. meeting that assets purchased from Homeland
Security Funds needed to be officially transferred to the City of Statesville and to the Towns of
Troutman and Mooresville. He said the municipalities already had most of the items, but the
"official" transfer would eliminate the county from having any vehicle/equipment maintenance
costs. An asset listing is as follows:
