DECISION OF THE BOARD TO SAVE A REPERENDUN IN NOVEMBER 1994
POA GENERAL OBLIGATION BONDS FOR RENOVATIONS AND ADDITIONS TO THE
JAILS Mr. Mashburn said this had been discussed by the board at
their last retreat; however, it did not seem likely that there
would be enough time to do this because of the County's recent
involvement with Catawba County and Sedgwick James for the regional
analysis through a feasibility study for a regional jail. Since
the results of this study will not be known until late September or

MOTION from Commissioner Madison that the board not have a
referendum in November as previously planned.
VOTING: Ayes - 5; Nays - 0.

structured sentencing. The impact that this would have on local
governments was discussed, although there is no way of projecting

Sentencing, if they are not released to one of the other programs,
the county will have to keep them for longer periods of time, which
will negatively impact the local jail.
In addition to the Structured Sentencing Act, another bill was
