report on the 1987 Legislative Goals Conference which was held in Fayetteville, NC, on January 14-
15, 1987. Commissioners Stewart, Crosswhite, and Murdock attended, along with the County Manager,

on January 13th. She reported on the Risk Management conference and said that she was glad to know
that the County Manager and Staff were "on top" of many areas where risk is greater to the County -
and its employees.
The Goals Committee had met four times and reviewed over 100 proposals from various counties
and the eight affiliate organizations. Some of the goals that were recommended were tax sales
refunds, salaries for educational personnel, recovery of administrative costs, transportation for
elderly and disabled, secondary road funding, separation allowances for law officers, law officers
retirement benefits, solid waste collection and disposal.
The association issued a statement of purpose which was voted on and accepted -by -the associa-
tion. She had a copy available for anyone who would like to read the entire statement.
Chairman Hedrick said he noticed the recommended legislation to fund one school administra-
tive system per county. Commissioner Ostwalt asked if any specific action was taken with reference
to consolidation of schools.
Commissioner Murdock called attention to the issue to seek legislation to ask the state to
provide sufficient funding to compensate for the supplementary salaries so that the counties will no
longer have to fund these supplementary salaries. Commissioner Murdock said she opposed this
legislation.
Commissioner Crosswhite said there were eight resolutions passed to be given to the General
Assembly. A copy of the resolutions was given to the Clerk to the Board for the files.
Chairman Hedrick thanked the board members for their attendance at the conference.
SHADY COVE CITIZENS ASSOCIATION, REGARDING SKIPPER'S COVE: Mr. Peter Meletis, representing i
the Shady Cove Citizens Association, spoke regarding the letter he had sent to the board members.
He is concerned with what he termed as a dilemma at Skipper's Cove. This cove is about 275 from
pier to pier at the widest part and 218' at the narrowest point. The residents who have bought
property agreed that the store now located there is fine. This is Skipper's Cove Marina, which has
been there about 20 years. He said the boat traffic there now is unbearable.
Mr. Meletis was requesting that the county commissioners contact the N. C. Wildlife Associa-
tion on behalf of this group and ask for a hearing regarding the citizens' concerns for guidelines
to protect the small coves at the shorelines of Lake Norman in Iredell County. He referred to G.S.
75A-15, which he believed would be of assistance in this matter.
After more conversation, Chairman Hedrick said the board would be glad to recommend that the
county manager forward this information to the Wildlife Commissioner and ask for a hearing and get
the Wildlife Association to identify any other coves in Iredell County that they should be concerned
with.
