REQUEST FROM THE MITCHELL COMMUNITY COLLEGE BOARD

OPERATING EXPENSES ASSOCIATED WITH THE WORKFORCE
DEVELOPMENT TECHNOLOGY BUILDING: Dr. William Findt, representing
Mitchell Community College, requested supplemental funds to cover additional operating
expenses for the new Workforce Developmental Technology Building.
Chairman Tice reminded everyone that the Mitchell officials had mentioned the
probability of needing additional operating funds at a past meeting.
Williams said he understood the total expenses were $65,092. He asked why only
$55,000 was being requested.
Findt said the total cost would actually be approximately $130,000 but the
requested amount of $55,000 would greatly assist.
REQUEST FROM THE CRIMINAL JUSTICE PARTNERSHIP
PROGRAM (CJPP) COMMITTEE FOR APPROVAL OF THE FY 2006-07

CJPP meeting, a budget was unanimously approved. She said the baseline budgetary
amount was the same, but a few line item adjustments had been made. Navey said the
Partnership desired to apply for a Program of Excellency Award, and a letter of support
from the commissioners was needed.
REQUEST FROM THE IREDELL COUNTY RECREATION
DEPARTMENT FOR APPROVAL OF THE NORTH IREDELL PARK MASTER
PLAN: Parks & Recreation Director Robert Woody presented a master plan from Site
Solutions for the North Iredell Park. He said there were a few monetary changes from

plan due to the need to move forward on the project.
Chairman Tice asked how much had been received in donations.
Woody said $2,550. He said the fundraising campaign would now begin due to
having a master plan that could be shown to groups and interested citizens.
