In addition to the Medicaid Managed Care plans, EMS must also contract with the transportation brokers that are associated with the Plans, so that EMS may bill for Medicaid Managed Care Non-Emergency Medical Transportation services. Being the sole provider for this type of transportation in Iredell County we foresee the necessity to contract to continue services in Iredell County and submit claims following.

This item was placed on consent. Request from Administration for approval to award contract for the Main Library Mechanical Upgrade project to Associated Heating and Air: Project Manager David Saleeby said the Library’s mechanical systems were designed and installed in the early 2000s. At that time, proper air exchange was not incorporated into the building design and plans. Currently, the building has minimal fresh air coming into building, thus creating a negative air pressure wi thin the building envelope. Also, the air in the building stays and is reused before the fresh outside air is introduced by way of door openings and normal air leakage throughout the building structure. The library modification project will include exhausting existing air from the building and replacing it with fresh outside air. To ensure good quality of outside air, the intake will be at the roof level of the library building. The air exchange rate for the proposed system is 2.78 air changes per an hour. Currently the air exchange rate is minimal. As conditioned air is exhausted from the building, unconditioned fresh air is introduced to the occupied space. To recover the energy loss of conditioned air, an Energy Recovery Ventilator (ERV) is installed. The ERV project will supply fresh air for the building occupants and also recover the heating/cooling cost which would be lost in the air exchange. Recently constructed County facilities, (Detention Center, Public Safety Building and Government Center Renovations projects, all incorporated 7 June 1, 2021 Energy Recovery Ventilator (ERV) systems in their mechanical design, per current building code and environmental requirements. A bid opening was held May 12, 2021 and Associated Heating and Air was the lowest responsible responsive bidder with a bid of $902,000. staff proposes to carry a 5% ($45,000) contingency for any unforeseen items that may come up during the construction process. Saleeby added the request also includes approval for the County Manager to sign the documents. Commissioner Brown asked if the Library’s hours will be affected. Saleeby is hopeful that anything causing noise or disturb the Library’s function will be on the weekends or after 9pm during the week. This item was placed on consent.

VOTING: Ayes – 5; Nays – 0 PRESENTATION OF SPECIAL RECOGNITIONS & AWARDS APPOINTMENTS BEFORE THE BOARD (None) PUBLIC HEARINGS Public hearing to consider a request from applicant Christy Allen, of The Allen Team, Inc., to rezone approximately 2.95 acres along Stutts Road: Planning Director Matthew Todd said the property is currently zoned residential agricultural and the applicant is requesting straight general business. The property lies within the 2030 Horizon Plan as Corridor Commercial and is adjacent to other general business uses. There are watershed restrictions on the property which will limit a smaller scale general business use. Staff supports the rezoning and Planning Board voted unanimously in support of the request. Todd noted there has not been any opposition to the request. Chairman Mallory opened the public hearing. No one wished to speak. Chairman Mallory closed the public hearing. MOTION by Commissioner Brown to approve the zoning map amendment, and to make a finding that said approval is reasonable and in the public interest because the property lies within the 2030 Horizon Plan Corridor Commercial designation, it is adjacent to various existing commercial uses, and critical watershed restrictions should limit development to smaller-scale GB uses into the future. VOTING: Ayes – 5; Nays – 0 9 June 1, 2021 Iredell County PLANNING & DEVELOPMENT PLANNING STAFF REPORT REZONING CASE # 2105-1 STAFF PROJECT CONTACT: Leslie M. Meadows EXPLANATION OF THE REQUEST This is a request to rezone an approximately 2.95 acres parcel of land along Stutts Road, off Brawley School Road, from Residential Agricultural (RA) to General Business (GB). This is a conventional rezoning request, with no conditions proposed at this time. OWNER/APPLICANT OWNER: Marci Gallman APPLICANT: Christy Allen, The Allen Team, Inc. PROPERTY INFORMATION ADDRESS/LOCATION: 164 Stutts Road; more specifically, PIN#: 4636450987.000. SURROUNDING LAND USE: Adjoining and adjacent to this site, to the north and west, are a variety of commercial uses, primarily GB. Properties directly to the east and south are still residential in nature. SIZE: The total acreage to be rezoned includes approximately 2.95 acres. EXISTING LAND USE: Vacant, former single-family dwelling. ZONING HISTORY: The property has been zoned, Residential Agricultural (RA) since county-wide zoning was established in 1990. OTHER JURISDICTIONAL INFORMATION: This area is considered entirely the County’s jurisdiction, and is not with the Town of Mooresville’s Long-Range Urban Service Area. OTHER SITE CHARACTERISTICS: This property is located within the regulated WS-IV-CA Critical Watershed Area for Catawba/Lake Norman. Proposed new development will be limited to the Non-Residential Low Density Option for 24% built-upon area. Being in the Brawley School Road area, the Non-Residential High Density Option would not be available at this site. The property is not located in a flood hazard zone. 10 June 1, 2021 UTILITIES: This site is currently served by well and septic only. IMPACTS ON LOCAL INFRASTRUCTURE AND/OR FACILITES TRAFFIC: Stutts Road is considered a minor thoroughfare needing improvements according to the current CRTPO Comprehensive Transportation Plan. The closest and most recent NCDOT traffic count, just north of this property along Stutts Road, had a traffic count of 4,600 vehicles per day in 2019. Overall traffic capacity for Stutts Road is currently unknown. The speed limit along this section of Stutts Road is 45 mph. SCHOOLS: This is a commercial rezoning and should have no implications on local schools. EMERGENCY SERVICES: This proposal has been reviewed by the Iredell County Fire Marshal’s Office and Iredell County EMS. Neither office addressed any concerns regarding the request. REQUIRED REVIEWS BY OTHER AGENCIES LOCAL: The applicant must provide a site plan to the Planning & Development Department for review to develop the property. Zoning requirements such as parking, landscaping, and buffering will be reviewed at such time. Erosion & sedimentation control standards will also be reviewed for compliance. STATE: Other than building code, there should be no formal state agency review at this time. FEDERAL: None at this time. STAFF AND BOARD COMMENTS STAFF COMMENTS: The applicant, Christy Allen, a realtor with The Allen Team, Inc., represents Landowner Marci Gallman in attempts to sale the property in question. Due to the adjoining self-storage facility and adjacent, growing business park, it is felt that a rezoning to GB will make this site more marketable. It is no longer as favorable/attractive for residential purposes. However, the smaller lot size and the Catawba/Lake Norman WS-IV-CA Critical Watershed restrictions in this area should limit or help control GB development at this site. Being relatively close to Brawley School Road, the parcel in question is inside what the 2030 Horizon Plan calls the Corridor Commercial designation. Corridor Commercial areas include existing commercial, office, and/or retail uses that exist along major thoroughfares and highways or areas that will include commercial development in the future, and can contain both large and small mixed-use commercial centers. These areas are both within and outside the Iredell County Urban Service Areas. They may be serviced by and incorporated into one of the municipalities at some point in the future. According to the plan, commercial uses within this area generally should include retail, restaurants, entertainment centers, automobile services, personal services, other commercial uses, and office developments. 11 June 1, 2021 The Planning staff can support the proposed rezoning request based on the following: The property lies within the 2030 Horizon Plan Corridor Commercial designation, it is adjacent to various existing commercial uses, and critical watershed restrictions should limit development to smaller-scale GB uses into the future. SITE REVIEW COMMITTEE: Staff performed a site visit on April 16, 2021, to post property and take photo documentation. PLANNING BOARD ACTION: On May 5, 2021, the Planning Board held a public meeting to hear the rezoning request. The applicant and land owner were present for questioning. No neighboring landowners attended in opposition. The board voted 7-0 to recommend approval of the rezoning. Public Hearing to consider the proposed Fiscal Year 2021-2022 budget for Iredell County: County Manager said the Board was initially presented to the Board in May 2021. The Board held budget sessions resulting in additions and revisions. The proposed General Fund Budget is $236,155,420. The budget maintains the tax rate at 53.75 cents per $100 valuation, and the All-County Fire Tax rate at 9 cents for $100 valuation. Chairman Mallory opened the public hearing. No one wished to speak. Chairman Mallory closed the public hearing.
