RIBBON CUTTING FOR I -CARE READ START PROGRAM: Mr. Mashburn
announced the invitation to the county commissioners from I -Care to
attend a ribbon cutting ceremony sponsored by I -Care for the new
Head Start Program on Buffalo Shoals Road, to be held May 26, 1994,
at 3:00 p.m.
FLAG DAY PROGRAMS Mr. Mashburn announced a Flag Day ceremony
to be held on the courthouse lawn at 12:00 noon on June 14, 1994.
JOINT DETENTION FACILITY: Mr. Mashburn said he had received
a call from the Assistant Manager in Catawba concerning efforts to
pursue the possibility of a joint detention facility with Caldwell,
Lincoln, Catawba, and Iredell Counties taking part. Iredell County
is being asked to take part in the discussions with them. Unless
the board has some objections, Mr. Mashburn said he would notify
them that iredell County officials would meet with them and discuss
the possibility.
There has been some discussion of a feasibility study with
Sedgwick James. Iredell County is entitled to 30 hours of
consulting services in the area of criminal justice, and one of the
things they do is feasibility studies. if all three counties who
are members of the insurance pool (Caldwell County is not a member)
would use their 30 free hours, that would probably do a pretty
good feasibility study, Mr. Mashburn said.
This was attempted a couple of years ago with Rowan and Davie,
and then Rowan decided to go on its own. It appeared to be a
feasible project at that time. Mr. Mashburn feels this may be a
feasible project as well.
In the meetings in the past there was usually one or more
county commissioners in the meeting. There are two commissioners
on the Jail Management Task Force, and he assumed these two
commissioners (Hamby and Boone) would be the county commissioner -
representatives to attend the meetings.
ANNUAL MEETING OF TEE NATIONAL ASSOCIATION OF COUNTIES: Mr.
Mashburn announced this meeting on July 31 -August 4, in Clark
County, Nevada. The county commissioners must send in their voting
credentials by Iredell County stating who will be the voting
delegate. If no one goes from Iredell County, the North Carolina
Association will vote the county's proxy.
ADJOURN: Chairman Haire adjourned the meeting at 7:30 p.m.
The next meeting is a budget work session scheduled for 6:00 p.m.,
Tuesday, May 26, 1994, South Wing Conference Room, Iredell County
