7Fe recommendation would be that Iredell County Schools use this additional money
for the Troutman School replacement, which the school board said was the #1 project.
The funds for Mooresville and Statesville would be capital expenditures for relocating
the ninth grades at the high schools.
Mr. Campbell discussed the possibility of giving the schools more than the $15
Der student allocation proposed by Mr. Troutman. Mr. Ostwalt said he would not vote
for any amount over this $15 as he felt it would be fiscally irresponsibile.
Commissioner Mills said he would continue to work with the incoming board
toward capital improvements for the school system.
Commissioner Murdock said she would agree with Mr. Mills that education would
continue to be the #1 priority.
Commissioner Ostwalt asked that the board not specify that the Iredell County
School Board use the money toward Troutman School, but rather leave it as capital
w. funds to be used as the school board sees fit.
MOTION from Chairman Troutman to amend the budget to increase the capital outlay
funding level of the schools by $15 per student. The amount would be as follows:
Iredell County Schools 150,360
Mooresville Schools 34,200
Statesville Schools 52,995
Mitchell Community College 28,738
266,293
These funds are designated to be expended as capital outlay funds for reorganizing
Mooresville and Statesville Schools for the moving of the ninth grade to the high
schools and for capital outlay projects as designated by Iredell County Schools and
Mitchell Coummunitv College. (Amendment #10). VOTING: Ayes - 3
