and the county manager, Wayne Deal, discussed with the board the Enhanced 911 emer-

Mr. Deal reported to the board a new development with the Enhanced 911 system.
He said a proposal will go to the North Carolina Untilities Commission to have an
area instead of the total cost being paid by the county. This proposal would add
' 25 cents per month to each telephone user for a period of eighteen months. If the
Utilities Commission grants approval, cost to the county will become a rather small
factor. The main factor will become the order in which counties apply to have the
system installed.
