level would be appropriated with the understanding that this kind of increase will

Iredell/Alexander Volunteer Fire Department: In discussing the new fire tax
district as captioned, the board agreed that since the county's portion was $3,000
that should be collected through the county fire tax provision, it would be adminis-
tratively less costly to pay this amount from the general fund rather than going
through the collection procedure in the fire tax district. It was the board's con-
sensus that this would be handled in this manner until it becomes economically
feasible to levy a tax in the district.
DISCUSSION OF SETTING A TAX RATE: It was the consensus of the board that the
tax rate should be set at fifty-eight (58) cents.
MOTION from Commissioner Mills to reduce the rate from 59.9 as proposed by the
county manager and budget officer in his proposed budget and set at 58 cents, that
the county manager make the corrections in the budget ordinance and that the dif-
ference between the tax rate and the amount offunds needed for the budget come from
the unappropriated fund balance (approximately $1� million).
