UNFINISHED BUSINESS
FORMS FOR VOLUNTEERS TO FILL OUT: Commissioner Boone inquired
about forms for potential volunteers to fill out when they are
interested in serving on a particular board. Mrs. Alice Fortner
said she had copies of the form and would update the form and
distribute some of the forms to the board members.
APPOINTMENT BOOKS UPDATED: Mrs. Fortner said the appointment
books for the county commissioners would be updated in the near
future.
NEW BUSINESS
LEGISLATIVE CONFERENCE: Commissioner Boone suggested that the
board discuss legislative matters that will be brought up at the
Legislative Conference on January 5th and 6th in Fayetteville.
There are a number of things being recommended by the state group
that Commissioner Boone said he did not agree with. Commissioner
Boon's suggestion to the board is that these matters be discussed
at the briefing on January 3, 1995, at 5:00 p.m.
MEETING WITH LHGISLATIVE DELEGATION: Commissioner Boone said
since the General Assembly will convene on January 21, 1995, he
thought it would be appropriate that the county commissioners
entertain our delegation at an evening meal and share the county
commissioners' concerns on what they would like to see happen.
Mr. Mashburn suggested a meeting for pre -budget discussions
for direction on the budget as well as meeting with the legislative
delegation. Commissioner Madison thought this should be two
different meetings. The board consented to issue an invitation to
the legislators for Thursday, January 12, 1995, 6:30 p.m., Julia's
Talley House, for dinner and meeting with the legislators, and the
board would then meet at 3:00 p.m. at the second meeting in January
(17th) for a pre -budget discussion and direction from the board.
COUNTY MANAGER'S MEETING
OTERR IIPCOMING MEETINGS FOR THE BOARD'S ATTENDANCE: Mr.
Mashburn announced the date of the Legislative Briefing on January
5 and 6 in Fayetteville. All five members of the board and the
manager are registered to attend. Mr. Mashburn is planning to take
a van for everyone. Commissioner Johnson said he would need to
come back earlier than the rest of the group, and would probably
drive himself to the meeting.
The joint City -County Meeting between Statesville and Iredell
County has been planned for January 10th; however this is not
satisfactory. Mr. Mashburn will make contact with Mr. Jack King
and try to arrange for a meeting on January 30th, at 6:30 p.m.
The Council of Governments meeting is set for Wednesday,
January 11, 1995, Statesville Country Club.
NEW COPS FUNDING: Mr. Mashburn said the Criminal Justice
Funds are being given to jump start on meeting the goals to combat
crime. The county will be eligible for two officers. He does not
have the details. The program began under the former sheriff who
had to let the State know through a Letter of Intent that the
County was interested in the funding. No application has been
submitted at this time; however, it is known that it will require
a local match of 253. Mr. Mashburn said he did not know all the
details, but they will receive them before the application is made.
