IREDELL COUNTY BOARD OF COMMISSIONERS
------------------------------
Chairman
Clerk to the Board
FINANCIAL ABBURANCE FOR LANDFILL: Mrs. Susan Blumenstein
discussed this memorandum with the board. A letter isrequired by
Department of Environment, Health, and Natural Resources giving
financial assurance. The county commissioners can establish a
financial instrument with a separate trust agency in the amount
expected to take to fund the closure, which at this point would be
$1.6 million. The finance officer may certify that the strength is
there by preparing and being able to comply with some of the ratio
indicators and show that in five years when it comes time to close
the landfill and in the thirty years following that the county does
have the financial strength to fund these costs.
Initially the county commissioners included $2.60 per ton of
solid waste that is collected at the landfill on what goes into the
lined landfill to be set aside for closure and post closure, so the
County is providing these funds in an escrow account so that at the
end of the period the money will be there to take care of this
expense. The money may have to be adjusted up or down based on
volume and inflationary increases, but plans are being made for
this future cost by setting funds aside now.
Mrs. Blumenstein said she has prepared a letter of
certification; and with the county board of commissioners'
approval, she will file it with the state. The state gave implicit
instructions on how to write the letter and Mrs. Blumenstein said
she followed the instructions to the letter, with her figures based
upon this fiscal year's end numbers.

12700 COMPANY MOVIE CONTRACT WITH IREDELL COUNTY: Mr.
Mashburn said this company wishes to use the front of the old
courthouse building on March 22, 1994 as part of their filming.
They are using the courtroom in the Federal Building, but wish to
use the old courthouse exterior for their film. This is the same
company that filmed The Amish Story and The Ryan White Story. They
will only be here one day. The only concern the County has is with
the handicapped access while the filming is going on, but the movie
company said they would allow handicapped persons to continue to
use the handicapped entrance during their rental time if someone
p wished to do so.
Mr. Pope has looked at the insurance coverage. He questioned
the "0" days notice of cancellation and thought that should be
