OFFER 08 PROPERTY ?ROM IREDELL-STATHSVILLE SCHOOL SYSTEM:
According to the General Statutes, whenever a school system has
real estate it wishes to dispose of, the school system must give
the County government right of first refusal. A letter was
received from Dr. Jesse Register, Superintendent of Iredell County
Schools, offering a tract of land on Rickert Street. The land was
acquired in 1968 and is partially inside the city and partially
outside the city. It consists of about 15 acres and is valued at
$107,490.
The board looked at the property in discussion on the tax map
and after a short discussion, MOTION was made by commissioner
Madison to respectfully decline the offer from the Iredell-
Statesville School System for the property being offered.

CONSIDERATION OF HOME HEALTH TRANSFER DOCUMENTS: Mr. Sill
Pope said this matter was on the July 5th regular meeting and was
tabled for consideration at this meeting. Mr. Pope said he has not
prepared the documents. Since the original documents were
prepared, some changes need to be made, and they have not been made
at this time. The changes involve dates. The original date of
transfer was to have been October 1, 1994. The staff people and
the Iredell Memorial Hospital staff now believe that in order to
comply with all regulations, that it will not be possible to meet
the date. The transfer needs to occur at a quarter for the benefit
of the Medicaid calculations, it has been suggested that the
effective date be changed from October 1, 1994 to January 1, 1995.
A couple of other dates in the documents will also be affected by
the change of the transfer date. For example, the hospital had
agreed that it would continue to collect the old accounts for the
County until March 31, 1995. That date would be pushed back three
months. All of the dates recited in the document would be pushed
back exactly three months, Mr. Pope said.
Other than the date changes, no changes have occurred in the
documents of which the county commissioners have received copies
prior to the last meeting, Pope said. He said the documents, he
believed, are in order, and are consistent with the board's
desires, and he does not know any reason why the board cannot act
upon them.
Chairman Haire said it was her understanding that the transfer
could not be implemented, to which Mr. Pope agreed. The documents,
however, can be approved, Mr. Pope said. He distributed a
resolution that recognizes there is a restraining order in effect,
but approving the documents, subject to being used at such time, if
ever, the restraining order is dissolved. He thinks this will make
the legal issues clearer to the Court, so the Court could see this
is the transaction that is contemplated. Mr. Pope thinks it will
allow the Court to proceed to resolve the matter and make some
determination more efficiently and expeditiously, by having the
documents for the Court to review.
Chairman Haire inquired about a motion to authorize the
publication of a notice to the public, summarizing the contents of
the legal documents. Mr. Pope said part of the transaction is the
transfer of the operations of the home health agency and the other
part is to lease the space that would be vacated by home health at
the Health Department, to Iredell Memorial Hospital. if the county
commissioners want to lease that space, a very fair lease
arrangement has been negotiated, Mr. Pope said. A condition of
leasing County property is publishing a notice summarizing the
contents of the proposed lease and stating that the board intends
to consider acting on that lease at the next meeting (August 2,
