11. Request for Approval of Budget Amendment #40 for the Purchase of the

Street: Finance Director Blumenstein said at the briefing that on December 21, 2004,
the board approved the purchase of the Piedmont Production Credit Building for
$299,000. She said that due to Carolina Farm Credit constructing a new facility, and
not desiring to relocate until the building was finished, the closing was delayed.
Blumenstein said everything was now in order, and a budget amendment was needed to
record an interfund loan from the Solid Waste Disposal Facility to the General Fund for
the purchase.
