REQUEST FOR APPROVAL OF MOORESVILLE GRADED SCHOOL DISTRICT'S
BUDGET AMENDMENT ,#1: The following representatives of the
Mooresville School System were present: Frank Fields, Chairman,
Board of Education; Dr. Jane Carrigan, Superintendent; Dr. Bryce
Cummings, Asso. Superintendent; and Laura Thompson, Finance
Officer. Dr. Carrigan requested that Budget Amendment $1 be
approved for the following:
4.91xx.00.522 Roofing $13,470
4.91xx.00.532 Field Improvements 1,000
4.9199.00.699 Debt Service 330
4.91xx.00.522 Locker Renovations 12,300
4.9127.00.522 Burglar Alarms 2,500
Carrigan said the amendment was approved by the MGSD Board of
Education on November 4. The request simply allows the staff to
move money, but is in keeping with the total amount appropriated.
Dr. Carrigan mentioned she had been at a meeting on this date
concerning the N.C. Public School Building Fund for 1996 (Local
Match Requirements). She requested to add this to the agenda and
obtain approval. With the local bond money, Carrigan said
Mooresville would be able to build an entire school.
Commissioner Johnson asked if Mooresville would be "locked -in"
with its request if submitted to the State. Dr. Carrigan said the
State had not requested anything since last year. Chairman Haire
said it was her understanding the earlier the plans were sent to
Raleigh the faster an entity would receive its share of the bond
money. Commissioner Boone said the bonds were to be sold in four
sequences. Dr. Carrigan said this was correct, and it was
understood the systems that had everything completed would get the
money first. Commissioner Stewart said it would be to the school
system's advantage to return the plans as soon as possible due to
rising construction costs.
REQUEST FOR PURCHASE OF COMMERCIAL FREEZER FOR VACCINE
STORAGE: Ray Rabe, the health director, said his department had
applied for a grant for the purchase of a freezer to store a new
vaccine for chicken pox. The grant money in the amount of
$2,630.20 has been received.
Mr. Rabe advised that his staff could administer the pneumonia
vaccine if anyone was interested.
