Station was mentioned. Several commissioners advised they had been
contacted by the bidder (Holland Transfer) and were told there was
a desire to lease county trucks. It was noted that construction
was running behind at the station (completion
estimated
Hoo be
September or October) . With this delay, it appears
that nd
Transfer will probably have enough time to upfit its trucks and not
need to lease county vehicles.
It was the consensus of the group to not lease the trucks
since additional time is available for Holland Transfer to prepare
its vehicles.

REQUEST TO APPLY FOR LOCAL LAN ENFORCEMENT BLOCK GRANT
($23,107): Glenn Hedrick, Sheriff's Dept., advised he was seeking
permission to apply for a $23,107 grant that will require a 10%
match. Hedrick said the money would be used for equipment. He
noted that notification of the grant was just received so he
couldn't elaborate on what type of equipment. There is a deadline
to apply of July 11, 1997. Blumenstein said "seized funds" could
be used for the match.
YOUTH SOME UPDATE: Mr. Mashburn advised that the primary
houseparents recently submitted their employment resignations
(three-day notice). The Youth Home Board concurred with Mr.
Mashburn that with the departure of this couple, it will be almost
impossible to keep the home Open. The reasons are: 1) the other
two parents have not completed their training 2) the individual
from Youth Homes, Inc., in Charlotte that normally does the
training has resigned 3) the youth home has been plagued with
constant uth home, as

said he had been reviewing the following options:
1. Contract with a private company (Atlantic Child Development).
2. Contract with Barium Springs Home for Children.
3. Lease the home to another agency (Atlantic Child
Development).
Atlantic Child Development is a "for profit" group. CBA funds
could still be funneled to the County and then be used to pay any
"for profit" groups.

commissioners have a meeting with Marty Knisley of the Technical
Assistance Collaborative Company. A date of Monday, June 23, 1997,

M
