withstand additional units.
Commissioner Boone mentioned he understood Davie County had a five thousand feet
requirement between towers. Allison said he knew of this requirement; however, it was his
understanding companies would likely challenge the distance in court. He mentioned discussions
with the Centralina COG staff and efforts to determine a reasonable distance.
LAND DEVELOPMENT PLAN: Commissioner Boone mentioned Brawley School Road
and that it was not listed as a collector road. Allison said it did not meet the criteria as a collector
road. In addition, Hwy. 150 is not a collector road; however, it is a minor arterial road.
CROSSROADS BEHAVIORAL HEALTHCARE/REQUEST FOR SUBSTANTIAL
EQUIVALENCY STATUS UNDER THE STATE PERSONNEL SYSTEM: The area director
for Crossroads, Mr. David Swann, said he had recently submitted this request to Yadkin County,
This Board approved the substantial equivalency status in a 5-0 vote. He mentioned he would
present the matter to the Sorry Board on January 20, 1998. The reasons why Crossroads desires the
status are:
1) The staff will be able to do in-house classifications. Swann mentioned that unless the
request was approved the State regional office in Winston-Salem had to approve all classifications.
The turnaround time can sometimes be two months.
2) The staff will be able to qualify job applicants in-house. Mr. Swann mentioned the same
reasoning for this matter. The staff would be able to review applicants in a day's time compared to
sending the information to Winston-Salem and waiting for a decision.
In other news, Swann reported the Statesville site continued to see growth. In December,
the facility had 93 new patients. He mentioned the need for a facility in Mooresville, and said he
would like to make a presentation about the matter in the next few weeks. In reference to the old
youth home facility (Twin Oaks Road), some Crossroads staff members are now moving into the
building.
ADJOURNMENT: Chairman Haire adjourned the meeting at 6:30 p.m. for a refreshment
break prior to the 7 o'clock meeting.
