CALL. TO ORDER by Chairman Johnson.
REQUEST FROM THE JUVENILE CRIME PREVENTION COUNCIL FOR
APPROVAL. OF A RECOMMENDATION REGARDING THE ALLOCATION OF
REMAINING FY 2002-03 FUNDS ($9,505) FROM THE DEPARTMENT OF JUVENILE
JUSTICE: Carl Duncan, the Chairman of the Juvenile Crime Prevention Council, said $9,505
was remaining in juvenile justice funds. He said the council had previously recommended
$25,000 for VisionsWork Youth Services, but the program did not work out. Demean said later,
the State reduced Iredell County's allotment of juvenile justice funds by $15,495 due to the
budget crisis. Ile said the remaining funds would revert to the State if they were not locally
used. Mr. Duncan said the council met in December and recommended for the money to be
distributed to three programs already receiving juvenile justice funds (SCAN, Barium Springs
Home for Children, and Project Challenge).
The county manager said that Barium Springs' local match (30%) for the state funds was
supplied by the county. He said he wanted to clarify that no additional funding was needed.
Duncan said this was correct -- no additional funds were needed from the county.
REQUEST FOR APPROVAL OF A RESOLUTION AU'T'HORIZING THE
PURCHASING AGENT TO DISPOSE OF SURPLUS PROPERTY (TWO GENERATORS
& AN UNDERGROUND STORAGE TANK) BY PRIVATE NEGOTIATED SALE: Support
Services Director Jim Vernon said two generators were at the Iredell County Government Center -
South, and they were in relatively good condition. He said, however, parts for them were no longer
made, or listed by the Caterpillar/GE dealers. Vemon said also that (1) the electrical transfer
switching components were no longer available and (2) the original manufacturer was no longer in
business. Ile said the staff felt it would be better to dispose of the two generators rather than trying
to "uptit" them for any of the county facilities. Mr. Vernon said some departments or facilities
needed generators and the staff would be supplying additional information about these requests in
the near future, but the two at the ICGC-S were not conducive to the county's needs.
ADJOURNMENT: Chaimian Johnson adjourned the briefing session at 6:25 p.m.
