IREDELL COUNTY BOARD OF COMMISSIONERS MINUTES JANUARY 4, 1983 The Iredell County Board of Commissioners met in Regular Session on Tuesday evening, January 4, 1983, 7:30, Agricultural Center Conference Rooms 1 and 2. Present for the meeting were: Joe H. Troutman, Chairman Frances L. Murdock, Vice Chairman B. W. Campbell William A. Mills Samuel L. Ostwalt Staff present: J. Wayne Deal, County Manager Robert N. Randall, County Attorney Lois Troutman, Tax Administrator F. William Furches, Jr., Finance Officer Bobby Abernathy, Data Processing Director Alice Fortner, Clerk to the Board = CALL TO ORDER: By the Chairman INVOCATION: By the Chairman APPROVAL OF MINUTES: MOTION from Commissioner Campbell to approve the minutes from the meetings of December 21, 1982, and the Fmergency Meeting on December 30, 1982. VOTING: Ayes - 5; Noes - 0. PRESENTATION OF RESOLUTION TO DR. LONNIE M. LITTLE: The Chairman, Joe H. Troutman, presented a framed resolution which was adopted by the Board on December 21, 1982 (recorded in Book I, page 4403 of the Minutes), to Dr. Lonnie Little. ADJUSTMENT OF THE AGENDA: Chairman Troutman adjusted the agenda at the consent of the Board to hear from Tom Fox of the Iredell County Rescue Squad and John Fleming of the Iredell County Emergency Medical Services Department. FIRST RESPONDER PROGRAM (EMERGENCY MEDICAL SERVICES): The County Manager, Wayne Deal, gave the Board background information on the subject, stating Tom Fox came to him sometime ago, and Mr. Deal told him that he supported the concept of the program. Mr. Deal's concern was the legal liability of those people who would be involved in the First Responder Program. He said he would like the County Attorney, Robert N. Randall, to give his opinion to the Board regarding the legal status of the County in this matter. A list of those involved in the First Responder Program was given to the Board, of which five of the 18 listed members are already trained EMT's and employed by the County's Emergency Medical Services. Tom Fox explained that the first responders would be responding in their personal vehicles (which have to meet certain guidelines set forth by the Rescue Scuad), and the resvonders would sometimes be in regular Rescue Squad uniforms, but ; would always be wearing an identification tag. A copy of the rules and regulations for the First Responder Program was given to the Board members. The program plan is that the County ambulance would be dis- patched initially; if the call is a life threatening emergency and there is a first responder living in the area of the emergency, he would be dispatched. If the first responder arrives at the scene of the emergency first, he will administer emergency treatment until the arrival of the County's Emergency Medical Technicians, and at that time the County would assume the responsibility at the emergency scene. Tom Fox said the program had been added to the Rescue Squad budget, and he saw no immediate need for additional funds for the program, at least for two or three years. Chairman Troutman said a lot would depend upon how well the Rescue Squad mem- bers and the County's EMT's get along on the scene of the emergency. i After further discussion, it was the consensus of the Board that as soon as the | County Attorney advises the Board on the legal liability of the County, a decision will be made. REVALUATION REPORT: Brent Weisner, Ferriss Revaluation Project Manager, came before the Board to give the December report. Mr. Weisner said they had moved into Olin Township on Monday, December 2nd. He said the computer system seems to be working well. They have "verified back" a number of cards and they are looking good. Commissioner Campbell inquired about tobacco allotments, saying that he had a number of farmers expressing concerns about this affecting the value of their farm- land. Mr. Weisner said we would have the ability of adjusting the allotments ona year-to-year basis, if desired. There are anvroximately 700 allotments representing 900 acres in the county. ¢Y It was suggested that the Tax Administrator, Lois Troutman, and the revaluation company should have a meeting in the North Iredell section and discuss allotments with the people there. AUTOMATED TAX BILLING AND COLLECTIONS SYSTEM: Mrs. Troutman, Tax Administra- tor; Bobby Abernathy, Data Processing Director; Steve Harkey and Jim Long, consul- tants for the Ferriss Company; were present to discuss the captioned system. Mrs. Troutman said our present tax billing program does not have the capability to handle the special tax districts. She said by having the billing and collections program written by the same company that is doing the revaluation should cause it to mesh together well. Questions were raised by the Board members regarding cost of program, efficiency, and whether there would be a reduction in the work force if the program is initiated. An estimated cost of $20,000 was quoted for the program, which is $10,000 initially with $2,000 monthly for five payments. Bobby Abernathy, Data Processing Director, said additional hardware would be $10,000 for two or possibly three addi- tional terminals and a printer. Mrs. Troutman was asked by the Board to name the advantages of having the automated system. She said it would enable them to process the mail more quickly, and cut down on the number of people on the staff. She said changes will have to be made for the fire districts, the collections program is now on batch files, and it would cut down on the errors in back taxes. Mrs. Troutman said this would be the most pressing need she would have in her department. RECOGNITION OF BURWELL WHITTENTON, STATESVILLE RECORD & LANDMARK REPORTER: Chairman Troutman recognized Mrs. Whittenton, saying this was her last meeting to cover as a report of County news. He expressed the Board's appreciation for Mrs. Whittenton's good reporting. Mr. Troutman said Mrs. Whittenton had shown a genuine interest in County government, and the Board and staff had appreciated working with her. Mrs. Whittenton expressed her appreciation to the Board for its openness and the ease with which she was able to work.

Copies of maps showing the expansion areas and the site for the office were submitted to the Board.

He said the County Building Code had been in force since 1972; and in 1981, it became mandatory to enforce the State Building Code. Since the County Building Code is more restrictive in a lot of areas, it was requested that the County Code be repealed with the exception of the two above-listed items.

Mr. Coutu said the request had been approved by the olanning board and was recommended to the county commissioners for approval. R. D.

IREDELL COUNTY BOARD OF COMMISSIONERS FEBRUARY 22, 1983 MINUTES The Iredell County Board of Commissioners met in Regular Adjourned Session on Tuesday evening, February 22, 1963, 7t30. Hall of Justice Courtroom No. 3. Present for the meeting were: Joe H. Troutman, Chairman Frances L. Murdock, Vice Chairman B. W. Campbell William A. Mills Samuel L. Ostwalt Staff present: J. Wayne Deal, County Manager Robert N. Randall, County Attorney Lois Troutman, Tax Administrator Alice Fortner, Clerk to the Board CALL TO ORDER: By Chairman Troutman INVOCATION: By The Reverend J. R. Speece, Union Grove PUBLIC HEARING: The Chairman adjourned the meeting to a public hearing for the pupose of discussing alternate financing methods for Iredell Memorial Hospital. Chairman Troutman gave background information to those present, stating that in November (1982) Iredell Memoiral and Lowrance Hospitals had asked for a bond passage to do additions to the two county-owned hospitals. At that time the vote was against general obligation bonds. Since that time, several situations have changed --one of which the Davis Hospital now has its certificate of need for the amount of beds requested. Other changes are the economic outlook has changed, and the interest rate on general obligation and revenue bonds has significantly decreased. It might be said that the issuance of bonds is more favorable now that it was some months ago, he said. For that reason the county commissioners have asked the board of directors at Iredell Memorial Hospital to look again at their needs. Times are changing and unless we keep up we might be looking down the road at even more costs. Bill Mills was a representative from the county commissioners board to the hospital planning committee. The county commissioners met several weeks ago with the folks at Iredell Memorial to go over the six alternatives, and at that time we agreed to call for a public hearing for the purpose of hearing from our citizens on how they might feel about what is proposed. You will have an opportunity to address this board and speak your wishes. At the request of the chairman, Arnold Nunnery, administrator at Iredell Memor- jal Hospital, gave 4 presentation of the alternate financing methods as proposed by the planning committee, which is comprised of hospital board members, trustees, and William A. Mills, county commissioner member to the committee. Chairman Troutman asked several times if anyone from the audience wished to 22 Ay a a ound Mpeg t ” va a Vs oy ee os a ae hie 8) SA RRR RRS SEEARERAO RIB Sa speak regarding the financing methods for hospital renovation. No one present spoke for or against the financing. Chairman Troutman said during the meeting with the hospital board (a public meeting at the hospital), it was the consensus of the board of commissioners that Alternate 3 would be perhaps the best way to go at this time. Alternate 3 is 120,000 s. f. of new constructicn, a five-floor addition at a cost of $14.3 million for construction, of which since these figures were presented, there has been a little change. Now the cost would probably be $11.5 million in bond issues and $5.6 million or $5.7 million in hospital contributions. This would require no county tax money; there will be no county tax rate increase. This will be done by the issuance of revenue bonds. Mr. Troutman said because of the changes in the things mentioned earlier in the meeting and in order to "start the wheels turning," to go to bid and make this a reality, the board of commissioners has to adopt a resolution of intent to issue revenue bonds for certain improvements at Iredell Memorial Hospital. He asked if any of the other county commissioners wished to comment. Commissioner Mills addressed the board and the audience as the representative from the county commissioners to the long range planning commission for Iredell Memorial Hospital. He said he did not want to spend money for "pie in the sky," a term that was used by some folks during the general obligation bond referendum in the fall. He said the rooms were the top priority of needs. The commissioners will not use their taxing authority to levy taxes to pay off the revenue bonds. The bonds will be repaid through revenues from the hospital. Mr. Mills recommended Alternative #3 as the financing method. Chairman Troutman emphasized that should the board pass the resolution for the revenue bonds, the county is not liable for the repayment of the bonds, rather the hospital is liable for the repayment. He said Iredell Memorial Hospital, a county- owned hospital, in recent years has been run with top efficiency. From a financial standpoint Iredell Memorial has done extremely well and has both the capability of retiring the general obligation bonds and the revenue bonds. The board of commissioners in looking at the hospital from its administrative standpoint and financial information believe that now would be a good time to undertake this pro- ject and to become more improved in about 18 to 24 months and continue to provide the level of service that they do now. PUBLIC HEARING ADJOURNED. REGULAR MEETING RESUMED.

This would allow a single point of entry to social service and create a minicase management system, (3) That a single entry point form would allow better utilization of eligi- bility specialists and better balance the workloads, (4) That the State and Federal government coordinate the eligibility require- ments for the various programs which would allow each social service eligibility specialist to handle a client's total needs, (5) That the requirements to terminate the medically needy at the end of six months be eliminated since this requires unnecessary duplication of forms. BE IT FURTHER RESOLVED, that any additional workload requirements by the State or Federal governments be accompanied by one hundred percent funding to employ the additional employees needed to meet the requirements.

Mr. Randall asked that this matter be delayed until the next meeting of the county commissioners, which will be on May 17, 1983. PLANNING BOARD - NUMBER OF MEMBERS: MOTION from Cormissioner Campbell to change the number of planning board members from 12 to ll. In discussion the motion, it was established that the number of members would be addressed in the pronosed ordinance pertainine to rules and regulations for the planninp board, and it would therefore be unnecessary to have separate board action to cover the number of members to constitute the board. Consequently, Mr. Campbell withdrew his motion. IREDELL COUNTY SCHOOLS - MUTUAL EXCHANGE AGREEMENT: Commissioner Mills addressed the board, the news media, and others present reerarding the cancellation of the mutual exchange agreement with the City of Statesville Schools and Mooresville Schools. Mr. Mills said he was personally affected because one of his children is directly affected by the chancellation of this agreement. However, he said, he believed that the board will have to look at some of the ramifications that affect the board. He feels that this decision will have some far-reaching effects since the board will be asked to fund capital-tyne improvements for which the county is not prepared. As the average daily membershin total continues to decline, Mr. Mills said, it is obvious that Mooresville and Statesville will be facing some school closings, a a fe ae 4: eit Se PRIN Pi i SG Ss NRO ee Bi Rc CS, 22 while the county schools will be asking for funds to build new schools. Mr. Mills also said there would be far-reaching industrial complications. While the decision itself will not be a problem, he said he thought the systems would be in a turmoil over the next few years, which would not be conducive to attracing new industry, and this will affect the decisions made by the county commissioners in years to come in taxing and budgeting. Regardless of whether the board members support or oppose this issue, Mr. Mills said, the board needs to be aware that they are affected as commissioners. Mr. Mills said narents were not given time to prepare nor were the county commissioners asked to give input into this decision. Remarks were also made by the chairman and by Commissioner Ostwalt regarding the mutual exchange apreement.

CHAIRMAN TROUTMAN ADJOURNED THE MEETING TO A PUBLIC HEARING. 36 PUBLIC HEARING: Jeff Coutu, Planning Director, was present to discuss the proposed rezoning of property on State Road 1236, Stonemarker Drive, from R-20 to R-20, Conditional Use. Mr. Coutu said the planning board had approved a 3-year conditional use of this property and recommended this change to the board of commissioners. Ts es DELIA 1201 Scotland Avenue Charlotte, NC 28207 Mr. Dulin requested that the board deny the conditional use zoning change. He felt that a trailer on the lot would lower the value of his property and that of his mother-in-law. He said he was not sure that the Garvers (property owners requesting conditional use rezoning) could afford to build a house in three years. He urged the commissioners to deny this re-zoning. He also asked that the fact that the trailer is in place not be allowed to interfere with the board's decision. Garland Rachels Box 6, Route 162 Mooresville, NC Mr. Rancels spoke asking the county commissioners to deny the conditional use re- zoning. He mentioned the Bartletts who had attempted to move a mobile home out and put in a new one and his request was denied. He said there were at least six homes in the $100,000+ range, and asked that the board deny the rezoning request. Scott Garver Route 6, Box 595 Mooresville, NC 28115 Mr. Garver said he was issued a septic tank permit and when he came in to get a building permit, he was told he could not get one under the present zoning. He was told that he could apply for a zoning change to R-20 conditional use so that he could be issued a permit. Lucy Plummer Lincoln County Realtor Ms. Plummer said that Duke Power Company told her the area was unrestricted when she sold the lot to the Garvers. She said there was 1% to 2 acres on either side of the Garvers. Prior to the Garvers owning the proverty, it was used by the Girl Scouts on a recreational lease. She did not check the zoning with the Iredell County Planning Department, she said. Questions were raised by the county commissioners regarding the procedures for ac- # quiring zoning restrictions, septic tank permits, etc., in a construction process. Mr. Troutman stated his personal views in that (1) the realtor showed the lot without being fully informed of the zoning restrictions, and (2) the county has a problem in that they issued a permit for a septic tank in an uncertain situation. Robert N. Randall County Attorney Mr. Randall said it is the property owner's obligation to determine how the property is zoned. The county legally does not have an obligation in this matter. He said he believed Mr. Troutman was referring to a matter in the interest of convenience to people and Mr. Troutman would like to have this problem corrected. Mr. Randall recommended if the board granted conditional use that they should set a time limit on the conditions. PUBLIC HEARING WAS CLOSED BY THE CHAIRMAN: REGULAR MEETING RE-OPENED. MOTION from Commissioner Ostwalt that from this date R-20, Conditional Use, be placed on the property located on SR 1236, Stonemarker Drive, more specifically described as Iredell County Tax Map 2D-1, Block A, Lot 158. The following conditions are in effect: vide tia NA ee i 5 OR: GRD RR STRAT ABE 3/7 sie 1. That the presently located mobile home be permitted to remain on the property; 2. That the mobile home must be removed from the property not later than May 17, 1985: 3.

BARBARA CURL VERSUS SHERIFF REAVIS AND IREDELL COUNTY SUIT: Chairman Troutman issued a statement on the recent Judge's Memorandum and Order in the case of Barbara Curl, Plantiff, versus Iredell County and LeRoy Reavis, Sheriff. Chairman Troutman pointed out that the sheriff is elected and is by statute responsible for the run- ning of the sheriff's department. The only thing county government is involved in is the funding of the sheriff's department and does not make the decisions for the devartment. Mr. Troutman said the county commissioners, management, and those who come under the arm of Iredell County government are not guilty of discrimination and were not involved in the (Barbara Curl) case whatsoever. ‘9 69 Mr. Troutman said he thought it was important that the people of the county fully understand that the sheriff's decision was totally and wholly his, and should not reflect on Iredell County government itself. Robert N. Randall, County Attorney, said the attorneys representing the county and the sheriff's department have filed a motion with the Judge to allow until June 24 for a motion to appeal or any other trial motion. At this point, he said, no avpeal has been made or is recommended by the attorney. PRESENTATION OF A PETITION: David Parker, attorney representing a group of provertyowners from the proposed Heronwood development, presented a petition re- questing the following of the board: 1.) That public hearings be held on Section 105 of the county's zoning ordinance so citizens can have innut regarding planned unit develop- ments (PUD's), and 2.) That a moratorium be placed on PUD applications until the public hearings are held. The board accented the petitions as information. CHAIRMAN TROUTMAN ADJOURNED THE MEETING TO A PUBLIC HEARING. CLOSING 207' AND BRIDGE 176 OF S. R. 1933, PUMP STATION ROAD: This issue was addressed by the chairman. Watt Alexander, Department of Secondary Roads, was pre- sent and discussed the proposal to the board. No one present spoke regarding the closing and abandonment of the bridge. PROPOSED SECONDARY ROAD IMPORVEMENT PROGRAM 1983-1984: Mr. T. G. Brooks, Shelby Division of Secondary Roads, and Mr. Watt Alexander, District Engineer, De- partment of Secondary Roads, were present to discuss the proposed secondary road improvement program for 1983-84. Mr. Brooks said there were 1180 miles of secondary roads in the county and 72% of these were paved. He said the allocation of the secondary road funds was figured as follows: 15% for unpaved maintenance, 20% for paved maintenance, and 65% for new paving. The following persons spoke during the hearing: Alex Opper, Route 6, Statesville, inquired about the status of his petition requesting addition to the state system, to which Mr. Alexander replied that it was being mailed to Mr. Onper. Shirly Huffman, S. R. 1532, inquired if the state was planning to widen a bridge on S. R. 1532 or if a new bridge is being constructed. Mr. Brooks replied that it depended on the present structure, if it is strong enough with adequate support. If not, it will be replaced. Mrs. Huffman also asked about the completion date of the paving on S. R. 1532, and Mr. Brooks said he doubted if it would be completed by the end of the next calendar year (1984). Mrs. Huffman also asked why the road was being built with a different route than the present road, to which Mr. Brooks said the engineers used the shortest route because it was less expensive. Robert Whilhelm, S. R. 2367, inquired when the paving of this road would be vf oN - om nee jehte RON 2 oe _ 66 completed. Mr. Brooks said it was not scheduled to be completed until next July (1984). Mrs. Frances Murdock, County Commissioner, inquired about a side road off Old Mountain Road into Celeste Estates. She said there was no intersection sign posted and it was hazardous for school buses. People there are requesting signs and speed zones. Mr. Alexander said speed zones are handled by the Traffic Office, and it was usually left to the people in the community to make decisions about having these signs erected. Mrs. Murdock also inquired about S. R. 2400, and if it would be paved along with the paving of S. R. 2395, to which Mr. Alexander replied that it would be paved at the same time. TRAFFIC LIGHT AT INTERSECTION OF MURDOCK ROAD AND U. S. 21 AND HIGHWAY 115, TROUTMAN: Commissioner Ostwalt brought up the subject of a traffic light at the captioned intersection. The state officials said there had been traffic counts at the intersection, but the traffic count did no qualify the intersection for a light. He requested that the board write a letter to David Hoyle with copies to Billy Rose and Ray Spangler, the new division engineer. CHAIRMAN TROUTMAN CLOSED THE PUBLIC HEARING AND RE-OPENED THE REGULAR MEETING. ABANDONMENT OF 207 FEET AND BRIDGE 176 ON S.

Mrs. Adams lives at Route 6, Mooresville, and is a volunteer worker in the county school system. Chairman Troutman thanked her for her statement and said he would allow a dis- cussion neriod on county school funding following a brief intermission by the board. DAVIDSON DOWNES SUBDIVISION PLAT: Jeff Coutu, Planning Director, presented the captioned plat to the board, stating the county planning board had given its approval, based on the surveyor showing certain lots as unsuitable for septic tank construction. The county planning board, at the directionof the health department, did not approve certain lots that did not meet the required perk tests, and approved the plat with the exclusion of these lots. In discussing the plat approval, Commissioner Mills asked how that information i. “would be conveyed to the purchaser of the lot, saying it would be up to the real es- i tate agent to make the purchaser aware of the negative recommendation from the health department. Commissioner Ostwalt asked if there was any reason why the county could not notify the purchaser of these instructions. Robert N. Randall, county attorney, said it would be up to the purchaser to make himself aware of the septic tank problems on these lots, but that the board could cause the lots in question to be blocked out and remain unnumbered on the plat that is to be recorded at the Register of Deeds. This would be a "red flag" to any- one who looks at the plat and is interested in certain lots. Jeff Coutu, planning director, said there were 10 lots out of a total of 101 that were not approved for septic tank installations. MOTION from Commissioner Ostwalt that the board approve the Davidson Downes Subdivision plat as recommended by the planning board on the condition that all lots not suitable for septic tank construction be clearly designated as such on the plat.

FUNDING OF THE THREE SCHOOL SYSTEMS IN IREDELL COUNTY: Chairman Troutman ex- plained to those present that the Iredell County Board of Commissioners had to fund euqal amounts to all three school systems in the county, therefore, there is no way from a monetary standvoint, he said, that the board of commissioners can fund the Iredell County Schools equal to the funding that the Mooresville and Statesville schools get, because these two systems have other sources of funds. Chairman Troutman said that a special taxing district comprised of Iredell Coun- ty with the exclusion of Mooresville and Statesville would allow a tax increase to the Iredell County School system. In order to raise the ADM amount from $242 to $306, which would be $1,004,288, it would mean a special tax rate of 6.74% ner $100 valuation in that area of the county outside Mooresville and Statesville. Mr. Troutman said Iredell County gives in excess of 50 per cent of its ad valorem taxes to the three school units. This has existed for the last several years; it exists again this year, he said. Chairman Troutman proposed that the citizens in the county consider a tax dis- trict to be voted on later this year, with the concurrence of the Iredell County Board of Commissioners. He said he was speaking as one person, not as a representa- tive speaker for the board, and he asked the Iredell County School Board to reconsider a tax district, and outlined two items he thought essential: (1) Establishment of a school tax district which excludes Mooresville School District and Statesville School District. The people of Statesville and Mooresville will not vote in this election and will not be levied for the tax for the Iredell County School System. (2) Because of the tremendous reaction for and against the mutual exchange agreement that has recently been revoked by the county school board, the chairman asked that the school board reconsider implementing the mutual exchange agreement for one more year. Mr. Troutman said he believed it would be essential to have this '* 69 agreement in tact in order to promote the passage of a school tax district referendum. Chairman Troutman said once the funding for the three school systems became equalized, then the county would be one step closer to consolidation of the three school systems in the county. He said it had been a long time since the county has had a school bond referendum, 1968. At that time figures used were quite elevated and the issue did not pass, but he believes that now is the time and under the right conditions to have a referendum to equalize the school funding. Several persons present spoke regarding the school funding issue. INTERLOCAL AGREEMENT FOR COMMUNICATIONS (STATESVILLE/IREDELL COUNTY): The captioned contract was presented for board approval; however, after a discussion by Commissioner Mills and the City of Statesville Fire Chief about the fire alarms for industries located within the city limits, the contract was tabled until the next regular meeting on June 2lst. LIBRARY ADVISORY BOARD: MOTION from Commissioner Mills to reappoint Mrs. Phillip Walker, Route 2, Box 118, Stony Point, NC 28678, to a four-year term on the library advisory board. This term is retroactive to May 1, 1983, and expires on April 30, 1987. VOTING: Ayes - 5; Nays - 0. RETIREMENT ~ NORA DEAL, SOCIAL SERVICES DEPARTMENT: Don C. Wall, director of social services, requested that Mrs. Deal be allowed to purchase seven years and eleven months in the State Retirement System. He said the cost would be $1876.76 for Mrs. Deal and $1765.67 for the county. After a discussion by the board, MOTION was made by Commissioner Ostwalt to allow Nora Deal to purchase additional coverage in her state retirement provided that she pays the total cost, both the $1876.76 and the $1765.67 for the county that she is asking the county to pick up. VOTING: Ayes - 5; Nays - 0.

Mr. Deal was asking that the county release its interest in these two vehicles to the people who are storing them in lieu of paying $300 for storage.

The county manager had recommended a 10% increase in the budget, which was $242 per vnupil. It was mentioned by Commissioner Ostwalt that the Iredell County School officials said they needed $245 ner nunil in order to receive accreditation by the state. Commis- sioner Campbell said he would support $245 ner student if the schools would stay in line with the salary increase that is given by the county for county employees. He said this would apply to those employees funded with county money. Commissioner Campbell added that he would also like to see the schools keep travel at 20 cents a mile as opposed to 25 cents a mile. Mitchell Community College was recommended to have a ten per cent increase in current expense and to give them a minimum amount they have requested which is $138,000 for snecial building project in Mooresville. This amount is to vurchase and renovate the old gymnasium there to be used as a statellite classroom. oo The county manager reported that regular canital for the three school systems is computed with the special capital on a per studen basis, the amount being $63.74 per student. The total figure for all three schools if $1,143,149, which includes Mitchell Community College. Commissioner Mills inquired about the asbestos ceiling problem in the three schools and gave a computation of the costs for removing the asbestos ceilings in the Statesville Schools. He said that he thought it would be a good idea for the county commissioners to earmark funds for the removal of the asbestos ceilings to be done over a three-year period. The Chairman asked that the projected costs be gotten from all three systems so that it could be included in next year's budget (1984-85). Mr. Mills said that he thought this amount should be funded over a three-year period, over and above the other capital outlay allocations. ‘ RECREATION - CONTRACTS: Rudy Davis, recreation director, and Robert N. Randall, LJ county attorney, were present to discuss this with the board. The recreation denartment is planning a Camp Iredell project and has asked the Iredell County Schools' permission to use the activity buses for this purpose. Con- tracts for the use of the buses along with the county's assumption of liability while operating the buses while on the county programs needed to be approved by the board. A discussion took place regarding the cost of leasing the buses from the county school system. That cost is 25 cents a mile and the county recreation denartment to pay for all gasoline and oil while being used by the recreation department. MOTION from Chairman Troutman that the county agree to the lease and that the liability be worked out by the county manager, and that the county recreation depart- ment pay to use the two buses and release the Iredell County School system from the time the county recreation department is using the buses.

The county manager, Wayne Deal, said he had recommended in the proposed budget a 5% increase for all employees and a 24% merit increase. The 5% increase would cost $200,000, and the merit (2%%) would cost $100,000. Commissioner Ostwalt and Campbell were against merit increases and recommended the 5% increase only. Commissioner Campbell said he was in favor of looking at some way to give salary increases which lets those at the lower end of the salary scale receive greater increases than what they would receive with a five per cent increase while those who were at the top of the scale would receive less than five per cent. (Vice Chairman Murdock entered the meeting at this point.) It was the consensus of all board members that a 5% across-the-board increase would be included in the budget, and the 2% merit should be deleted. CAPITAL PROJECTS FUND: The county manager, Wayne Deal, advised the board that he had included a Capital Projects Fund in the amount of $250,000 to be used for replacement of heavy equipment and purchase of more land for a new landfill site in the future. He said the board would need to adopt a capital projects ordinance which would set forth how the money would be spent and the conditions under which it would be spent. He said the county commissioners could change it in the future, if they desired, but it would be somewhat involved to change the fund. REVALUATION LINE ITEM: The amount of money allocated in the revaluation line item was discussed. Mr. Deal explained that part of this fund was to be used to finish the on-going revaluationproject and part of it was to be set aside for the next octennial appraisal, which funding is required by law to be done each year. DEPARTMENTAL BUDGETS: The board members and county manager discussed the in- dividual departmental budgets. Commissioner Mills asked that the county manager consider bidding all radio maintenance together, which would include the sheriff's department's maintenance also.’ Mr. Deal said he planned to handle it in this manner. In discussing the sheriff's department budget, it was decided that it would be left for a later date for approval. EMERGENCY MEDICAL SERVICES - FIRST RESPONDERS: Commissioner Mills requested that a notice be posted at the EMS headquarters notifying the county's EMT's of their eligibility to participate in the first responder program, if they desired.

Present for the meeting were: Joe H. Troutman, Chairman Frances L. Murdock, Vice Chairman B. W. Campbell William A. Mills Samuel L. Ostwalt Staff present: J. Wayne Deal, County Manager Alice Fortner, Clerk to the Board CALL TO ORDER: By the Chairman INVOCATION: By the Chairman STATESVILLE CITY SCHOOLS: Mr. Vester Boone, Chairman of the Statesville City Schools Board, members of the board, and Dr. Ben Carson, Superintendent, were present to discuss school funding with the board. Dr. Carson said they had escrowed $101,632 of the special capital funds received from the county for the 1982-83 fiscal year for the projected renovation at States- ville Senior High School. He said this project was included in the five-year plan, which has been projected by the school Board. Dr. Carson said he had no qualms with the per capital funding of special capital as volanned by the county commissioners; he believes this to be the most equitable way to fund special canital. However he said if the board of commissioners could fund a greater amount of special canital monev, it would heln their school system as well as the other two systems in the county. Regarding the current expense funding, Dr. Carson said that there was a differ- ence of $160,760 in the amount recauested by the school board and the amount proposed ae to be annropriated during 1983-84. He said this means that his board would have to gone! adjust the budget down to cover the difference in the requested amount and the anti- civated amount. Dr. Carson has given County Commissioner Bill Mills a letter outlining the amount of funds needed to take care of the asbestos ceiling replacement. Dr. Carson said that they had repaired as directed all areas that have a deterioration factor that is considered to be unsafe. They have some areas that are in the four and five per cent € level and have been advised by the consultants that it is not necessary to remove those at this time. Cost of asbestos replacement as submitted to Commissioner Mills is 52,477 sq. ft. at $147,460, which does not include boiler covering or pipe wrap. This price is based on 1981 figures. In discussing reducing the travel rate of county-funded travel from 25 cents to 20 cents as requested by the board on June 13, 1983, Dr. Carson said they were using the 25-cent per mile reimbursement as recommended by the state. g ‘@ sa ela 2 RS al: Ms 73 MITCHELL COMMUNITY COLLEGE: Dr. Poindexter, nresident of Mitchell Community College, came before the board to express his appreciation of the county commission- ers' support of the college. ROLL-OFF SOLID WASTE CONTAINER SITES: A discussion took place regarding future solid waste container sites in the county. Commissioner Mills requested that a plan be formulated for the entire county for these sites. This plan should project sites that would be the most used by the most citizens. The county manager, Wayne Deal, said an ideal site is one where there is a higher concentration of people and in a natural traffic flow for the people of the county. In Wilson County for example, he said, they have a box within a four-mile radius of every citizen in the county. While Iredell County is larger in area, it may not be feasible to do this, andwe should try to locate the sites in the natural traffic flows. Commissioner Campbell recommended that in the future the county look at vur- chasing sites rather than leasing the property due to the large facility investment the county must make at each site. Commissioner Murdock mentioned the civic club involvement in maintaining the sites. ANIMAL CONTROL: The subject of vehicle replacement (pick-up truck) was dis- cussed. A four-wheel drive vehicle is being requested because of the off-the-road driving that is necessary in this department. Also requested was fencing for the back yard area of the animal shelter, which would help prohibit vandalism. HEALTIi! DEPARTMENT: Commissioner Ostwalt requested an overall total on the health budgets in addition to the various programs being shown with separate totals. In the sanitarian division, the county manager reported that not enough justi- fication was given him to merit the increase in travel that was requested. It was discussed by the board that the radios installed in the 1982-83 budget were supposed to cut down on the travel. Chairman Troutman inquired about the hours that sanitarians are available to take calls for inspections. He said it was his understanding that if a person doesn't call in by 8:30 or 9:00 in the morning, they cannot get an inspection until the next day. Commissioner Ostwalt recommended that the board adopt a resolution instructing the health director, Bill Mashburn, to see that the sanitarians are making necessary inspections. MOTION from Chairman Troutman that the sanitarians make services available at all times and that people who are employed as sanitarians who do not answer the calls as dispatched on the radio and who are not in contact with the health department office be revlaced. This directive also applies to the health department employees who relay the information by radio to the sanitarians. This directive is to be typewritten and hand delivered to the health department director. VOTING: Ayes - 5; Noes - 0. 76 a ee (ihm ATI RR EO se RRL Further discussion of the increased number of calls made by the sanitarians took place. The reason for the increased number of calls, explained Commissioner Camp- bell, was the real estate agents asked the sanitarians to inspect the septic tanks on properties listed by them. It was requested that the county manager look at the possibility of charging a user's fee for the sanitarians' service. Rat Bait Program: This program has been recommended to be dropped from the health department, but after a discussion by the board, it was the consensus that it would be continued another year. The county manager said his reason for deleting the program was the risk manage-~- ment program and the possible liability incurred, and the fact that the rat poison can be acquired at a reasonable price from private enterprise. The final decision on the increase in travel funds for the sanitarians was that it should be left as it presently is recommended by the county manager, and e should an emergency situation arise during the year, the health director could come back to the board and request a budget amendment. Prenatal Program: In discussing the funding of this program, Chairman Troutman said he had talked with some of the OB-GYN's who take care of persons involved in this program, and it was their opinion that if these patients could come to their offices and be worked in their regular schedules for the pre-natal care, it would be more advantageous to the doctors. SOCIAL SERVICES: Four new positions were requested in this department, and the county manager recommended that the slots be funded but that they not be filled until later in the year. This would enable the county to get the federal and state funds at a later time that make up the funding, along with county money, for these four positions. In. capital outlay, the department was requesting a new telephone system that will cost avproximately $10,000. Commissioner Campbell said he believed a new sys~ tem was needed. It was the consensus of the board that the budget would be sent back to the social services director and he would be asked to cut $50,000. LIBRARY: Myrtle Freeze, who has been previously paid with an Emergency Services grant, was to be changed to the library budget. A discussion was lead by Commissioner Mills regarding loss of books at the library. Mr. Mills suggested that library cards should be made and mailed out be- fore a book can be checked out. Also, if a person doesn't return books, some restitution must be made before another book can be checked out. SPECIAL APPROPRIATIONS: The county manager discussed the special appropriations with the board, including a line item called "Other Fringe Benefits." The manager said this was for the reclassifications that he was recommending to the board that should be made. Statesville Airport: MOTION from Commissioner Mills to appropriate $5,000 to the Statesville Airport Authority for use at the airport. The airport authority Mai id. sil ess he» ys ns AMM ois PS Re Ne ce 7/7 st should come back to the county commissioners with a recommendation of expenditures for the county commissioners' approval. IV-D DEPARTMENT: A discussion took place on whether or not this department should be moved to the social services department. The board requested the county manager to make a report to the board in six months from the time of adoption of the budget on whether to continue the IV-D as a separate department or include it with the social services department.

Reverend Gaston Boyle, Chairman, Cup of Water Board: The Cup of Water had re- quested $11,500 in their budget request, and it had been reduced to $7,500 by the county manager. Reverend Boyles said his board wished to use this additional re- quested funds for salary increases for their employees and to hire an additional counselor on a part-time basis because of the workload that exists at the Cup. Kenneth Wooten and Kenneth Reece, other members of the Cup of Water Board, were present. Mr.Wooten asked the board's consideration of the additional funding for the Cup.

CHAIRMAN TROUTMAN CLOSED THE PUBLIC HEARING AND RE-OPENED THE REGULAR MEETING. INTERGOVERNMENTAL AGREEMENT, COMMUNICATIONS: Several of the industrial managers were present to discuss the proposed agreement for the county to take over the dis- patching of fire calls for the City of Statesville. While these managers were in agreement with the concept of the county's handling the fire calls, they were concerned about who would manage the monitoring of equip- ment, etc., at the plants. The county had not included in the contract the handling of the monitoring systems at the county's emergency operations center. Mr. Taylor of Clark Equipment was in favor of having a private monitoring firm rather than using the county's EOC. Other company representatives, Mr. Spangler of J. C. Penney Company, was in favor of asking the county to handle this monitoring. Chief O'Ferrell of the Statesville Fire Department was present and discussed the City's position with the board. The county manager said it had been his thinking from the beginning that the county would dispatch the Statesville Fire Department calls, but there would be no alarm systems accepted. Mrs. Sells discussed her business and the importance of having a good alarm sys- It was brought out that there were 48 industries who have alarm systems located at the Statesville Fire Department, and that the board should withhold making a deci- sion until the City of Statesville advises the county what they plan to do regarding the monitoring system. MOTION from Commissioner Mills that there be an approved monitoring service to go directly to the Statesville Fire Department and also as a backup to the County's Emergency Operation Center. MOTION WITHDRAWN. Mr. Wayne Bumgardner, Bernhardt © dustries' Monroe Street plant, spoke regarding the monitoring system and said that he ought the County's EOC was the ideal way to go. It was mentioned that the 48 existing monitoring systems could be grandfathered in, but that no additional ones would be accepted, and then decided by consensus that this would be an unfair policy. MOTION from Chairman Troutman that the board accept the agreement as it is presently written without the private monitoring. 8 1 MOTION from Commissioner Campbell to table Chairman Troutman's motion until the next meeting hwen he has had more time to study the contract.

DISCUSSION OF FY 1983-84 BUDGET: Reclassification of employees: Commissioner Mills recommended that $30,000 be included in the budget for merit increases to be implemented after the first of the year (1984). The county manager said there would be 30 to 50 employees who would re- ceive the merit increases. Firefighting budget: It was recommended by Commissioner Mills that the capital for funding the new pumpers for the volunteer fire departments be increased from $18,000 to $25,000, effective in 1983-84. Also it was recommended that the current expense funding for the volunteer fire departments should be increased $1,000 in the 1983-84 budget, making a total of $10,000 current funding for each devartment, with the hope that it would be increased an additional $1,000 in the 1984-85 budget, for a total of $11,000 in current expense for each department. Special Appropriations - Commissioner Mills recommended that the Cup of Water be funded at $11,500, the total request from the Cup of Water's board. This funding 82 level would be appropriated with the understanding that this kind of increase will not be given again next year, only a nominal increase of a few percentage points will be considered in 1984-85. 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).

Chairman Troutman said the board would be glad to listen to Mr. Tate's presentation, but he must first present his request to the planning board before coming to the countv commissioners. Mr. Tate said he believed the zoning ordinance for Lake Norman as it is now written allows controlled and progressive growth and doesn't harm the environ- ment. He said the sewage disposal system pronosed exceeds the requirements of EPA as well as the requirements of the county. Regarding traffic problems, he said they planned to build a private road. For a buffer zone, thev plan to leave trees around the area, and neighbors will not be able to see the condominiums nor will it hamper their vresent view. Mr. Tate said the condominiums proposed would not overburden the fire service as they have wells that will produce more water than is needed, and they may be able to have the fire code lowered. Mr. Tate said the regulations as written are not going to produce a burden to the county. The available price is $100,000 which will mean that more affluent people of society will be the owners of these condominiums. Mr. Tate said it makes it economically feasible for the county to approve this condominium concept since it would be a tremendous increase in the tax base--$16 million worth of real estate, not including boats, cars, etc., that will be added to the countv tax base. He said new jobs would be created to build the condominiums which will be built over a three-year veriod. He cited residual effects as quality »rogressive growth, insurance purchases in the county, and other purchasing power, and pointed out that Mecklenburg's density is 17 units per acre where Iredell's density is 12 units per acre. Mr. Tate concluded by Saying that it is a question of whether or not Iredell Countv wanted this type of progress. If the density is lowered, he said they will not be able to build condominiums economically. His request of the board was that the county not make the Ordinance so stringent that the condominiums cannot be A eit se? Mit eb so I Aaltig Dees Pic a 84 built, and requested that there not be any changes made in the restrictions now in effect. JOB TRAINING PARTNERSHIP ACT; Mr. Leon Miller, Centralina Council of Govern- ments representative, addressed the board regarding the captioned project. The Job Partnership Training Act is renlacing the former CETA program. There is a Private Industry Council business throughout the six-county region of the JPTA (Iredell, Gaston, Cabarrus, Union, Lincoln, and Rowan). An additional eight members from other areas such as community college, nublic emnlovment agency, etc., comprise a consortium of twenty members which will make the decisions for the program. The administrative work will be done by Centralina Council of Governments, and costs for this administration will be a nvercentage of the nrogram funds. For the first 9-month period, beginning with October 1983 through June 1984, Iredell County is to receive a total of $636,356 for operation of this program. The concept of the program is for the initial training and/or retraining of workers in the private industry, training in community colleges (tuition and supplies only), training for prison inmates who are returning to the society, and high school training for the job markert. Commissioner Campbell inquired about the liability of the county in this program. The county attorney, Robert N. Randall, said the county mav have to share with other five counties for funds spent due to misaqualification, etc. Mr. Miller explained the COG has liability insurance that would cover liabilities that might develop.

The county manager, Wayne Deal, reported to the board that the county has completed mapning the majority of the county south of Interstate 40, and funds for the 1983-84 manping program are to convert some of the 400 scale maps in the southern vart of the county to 200 scale.

ADOPTION OF FY 1983-84 BUDGET ORDINANCE: Copies of the budget ordinance and the revised proposed budget expenditures were »resented to each board member. Mr. Deal said there were two minor changes in the budget ordinance this year: Section 9 added a provision stating that General Revenue Sharing Funds are designated in the ordinance to be used for the county's match for social services programs and for canital outlay for Line #74 in the budget. This was designated in the ordinance for clarification for theauditor. He said the General Revenue sharing Funds were being used for the same purpose, but this year it was being stated in the ordinance. The second change was the regular capital outlav for the schools which is based on $12.50 per punil was included in the current expense funds, which brings this figure to $257.50 ner pupil. Mr. Deal advised the board that there is a statement in the ordinance that Says the capital outlay budgeted for the schools is to be used only for capital outlay as contained in G.S. 115-100.6 (F) (acquisition of land, building acquisition and construction, acauisition or replacement of furnishings and equipment, acquisition of school buses, and acauisition of activity buses). He said if the 86 board anvroves, a letter will be written to the three school suverintendents, ex- plaining that regular canital outlay has been put in current expense and that the boards of education will be expected to qive the board of county commissioners a list of their priorities of their capital outlay projects. Mr. Deal said he and the county finance officer have contacted the finance officers for the three school systems and discussed this change in regular canital to current expense funds, and the schools do not seem to have a problem with the change. MOTION from Commissioner Ostwalt to adont the budget ordinance for 1983-84. VOTING: Ayes - 4; Nays - 0. Chairman Troutman commended the county manager for the very efficient way in which he presented the budget to the board. He said he believed this is a verv austere budget even though it does increase the tax rate from 55 cents to 58 cents. He said he believed the two things that were outstanding was the good collection rate that has been achieved by the county, going from 95.48% in 1981-82 to 96.2% in 1982-83. The other was reaching the goal of $300,000 in delinauent collections each year since it was begun annroximately five years ago. Chairman Troutman said he believed the county was getting on fine footing be- cause of certain items built into the 1983-84 budget which gives more flexibility to the oneration of county government. He was speaking of the capital outlay fund which has been set up for the landfill. Chairman Troutman said the two items that necessitated the increase in the tax rate were: (1) No growth in the tax base over last year, consequently, there was no way to acquire additional funds without raising the tax rate, and (2) The utility suits that have reduced the amount of taxes paid by the utility companies represent a substantial portion of the revenues required by the three-cent rate increase. a! MOORESVILLE/SOUTH IREDELL CHAMBER OF COMMERCE REQUEST: Commissioner Ostwalt discussed this matter with the board. Mr. Ostwalt attended a meeting at Cherryville regarding the proposed four-lane project of N. C. 150, from Shelby to I-77, north of Mooresville.

PUBLIC HEARING - 1/2% SALES TAX LEVY: Those speaking were as follows: Mr. Arnold A. Lanney Statesville, NC Mr. Lanney stated he opposed the levying of the 1/2¢ sales tax because he believed some of the people in the county could not afford to pay the extra money. He especially addressed the extra tax that would be put on grocer’ es. Mr. Lanney asked that the county commissioners consider putting the tax increase to a vote of thepeople rather than adopting the increase themselves. Mr. Alvin Morrison pe Statesville, NC ‘age Mr. Morrison said he was in favor of the board implementing the 1/2¢ sales tax increase. He feels there are needs in the county that could use the extra money and that it could also help reduce property taxes. Mr. George Brawley, Chairman Mooresville School Board Mr. Brawley stated the Mooresville School Board had submitted a letter of endorsement of the tax increase to the board. He said he was at the hearing to personally endorse the sales tax increase. Mr. Brawley said he was opposed to a referendum on the tax increase issue and said the citizenry elected the county . commissioners to assume the responsibility of levy and asked that the board members exercise that authority in this instance. Joe H. Troutman, Chairman Iredell County Board of Commissioners Mr. Troutman pave the breakdown of the tax as recommended by the Legislature: 40% for school capital outlay and 60% for the county general fund. The earliest time it could be implemented, he said, was October he a9Oss William A. Mills Iredell County Board of Commissioners Mr. Mills questioned the board's obligation to increase the school funding level with the 40% from the pronosed sales tax, or whether it could be used as supplant funds for the present county appropriation to the schools. The county manager, J.

Vester Boone, Chairman Statesville City Schools Mr. Boone said he believed the intent of the Legislation was to have 40% of this proposed revenue piven the schools and felt that the county commissioners were legally bound to do so. Joe H. Troutman, Chairman Iredell County Board of Commissioners Mr. Troutman said he believed the additional levy is a fair tax. He had talked with several merchants who would need some time to change their computerized cash registers and suggested the implementation be delayed until the merchants would have ample time to have cash registers reprogrammed. Samuel L. Ostwalt County Commissioner Mr. Ostwalt stated he thought it was a fair tax and he was in favor of it. Frances L. Murdock, Vice Chairman Iredell County Board of Commissioners Mrs. Murdock said it would be helnful in financing school needs. 8:01 P.M. CHAIRMAN TROUTMAN CLOSED THE PUBLIC HEARING.

Mills, County Commissioner, gave a report to the board on a meeting he had attended as a board representative regard- ing water-sewer expansions in the county. Mr. Mills said he and Joe H. Troutman, Chairman of the County Commissioners, had attended the meeting. Mr. Mills said it was his opinion that water-sewer needs and planning therefor should be a county-guided program. He said he throught the county should go to the appropriate source--state or private enterprise--for con- sideration of doing a water-sewer comprehensive plan for the entire county to see what it was poing to cost. The plan should include the present systems. Mr. Deal, county manager, added that it would probably have to be a private engineering firm. The countv manager was directed to pet some cost figures to see what it would cost to do this comprehensive plan. STATEMENT FROM WILLIAM A. MILLS: Mr. Mills spoke to the board regarding a meeting he had attended on Thursday, August 11, 1983. Mr. Mills said at the request of the Chairman, Joe H. Troutman, and several other peonle throughout the county and in direct resnonse to a letter Mr. Troutman had received from Reverend Charles Roman, he attended this meeting to make a response to the intimidating acts of violence aimed at the Blacks. Reverend Roman had accused the county commissioners of "dragging their feet'' and not showing concern. Mr. Mills said he wanted to publicly defend the county commissioners because he believed the board had always been responsive to the county. The reason the board did not respond as quickly as it could have, he said, was that the board members had just spent two arduous months hammering out the budget. Each of the board members has been on vacation through most of July, and August 2nd was the first time the board members were all together. A matter like this needs to be discussed with ali board members, Mr. Mills said. The board members did discuss it and decided what they would like to do. Another reason for not responding as quickly, Mr. Mills said, was questioning whether it was the board's statutory responsibility to respond, Mr. Mills said the meeting went well; each incornorated municipality was represented. The county attorney, Robert N. Randall, Joe Troutman, Chairman, and Bill Mills discussed for one and one-half hours the concerns of the Black Community regardinp the unethical acts of intimidation that have recently occurred in the county. It was decided that each of the local poverning board in the county should exnress their concerns because it is harmful, not just because of the intimidating nature, but particularly for the reputation of our county and state, Mr. Mills said. 105 By mid-September, it was planned that each board in the county will consider this matter and there will be a unified statement made. Robert N. Randall said he was very satisfied with the outcome of the meeting, and that another meeting is set for September 15, 1983, 7:30 p.m., Annex Conference Room. Chairman Troutman expressed his appreciation to Mr. Mills, on behalf of the county board, for his attendance and participation in this meeting. SCHOOL CONSOLIDATION: Commissioner Campbell said he believed someone should take the lead in having a study made concerning the feasibility of consolidating the three school systems. He suggested a blue ribbon committee from around the county. Mr. Campbell said it had been suggested to him that the county commissioners have the responsibility to take the lead.

The corporation members informed the county commissioners that they had received bids on a water tank and foundation for $167,700. This tank is to be located in the N. C. 115 area. The companies bidding the tank and foundation said their bids would be no higher on a second bid for the East Iredell area. The company officials said a water tank is needed in the East Iredell area partly because of the new Davis Community Hospital which is being constructed on the Old Mocksville Road, which would lower the water pressure considerably because of the large quantities of water they would be using. The board of commissioners asked that the Iredell Water Corporation officials come to the September 20th meeting with some concrete ideas on payback of the county funds and long range plans for the corporation's expansion. % vA al cass hee AM RS he. 107 RISK MANAGEMENT : Mr. Haines and Mr. Armour of the Centralina Council of governments came before the board to discuss a total risk management program with the county.

County commissioners do not have the powerto enact or legislate laws, and, unlike municipal governments, do not have direct management or supervision of the county law enforcement agency, the sheriff's department. The county commissioners could very easily dodge this issue by saying we don't have a direct voice in this type affair. Some criticism J Re of this reaction would be levied, but this would probably be short lived. "The question the commissioners must ask themselves is what is best for our community and are we doing our sworn duty to uphold the laws of our state and nation if we do nothing? There is really no answer other than the commissioners should do everything in their power to see that all people can live freely under the law. In this type case the commissioners should use their influence to see that all available law enforcement is used to enforce the existing laws. But more imoortantly the commissioners should use their influence and reputation to appeal to all Iredell County citizens to question the violent acts of a few and take a moral stand on the issue. No one wants his house shot at or his family verbally or Physically abused. "When the rights and freedoms of a few are in jeopardy, the rights and freedoms of us all are also threatened. So the Iredell County Board of Commissioners hereby apveals to everyone in this county to look at what is hapnening to our community ees 11] as a result of such acts. We are convinced that the vast majority of Iredell County citizens are fair-minded and moderate in their thoughts and actions and simply do not want any person to live under threats. The commissioners hereby appeal to all our law enforcement agencies and personnel to bring the full power of the law to bear on such acts. We have a free wav of life because we are a government of laws and none of us should allow a few people to strip anyone's freedom away." Robert N. Randall, county attorney and member of the Mooresville Town Board, read a resolution the Mooresville Town Board adopted at its last meeting. This resolution gave the Town of Mooresville's position regarding violence and intimi- dation in Iredell County, which is similar to the position stated by the Iredell County Board of Commissioners. Mayor Kurfees of Statesville said the Statesville City Council had recently adopted a resolution of similar nature. The Town of Harmony Mayor, Ralph Kurfees, said his board had recently adopted a resolution with the same thoughts. Mayor Loren Powell of Troutman made a statement regarding his feelings on violence and intimidation in Troutman and Iredell County, which was the same as the other boards' positions. The Reverend Charles Roman made a statement as a representative of the NAACP, and said he appreciated the boards' position in this situation and asked that they carry out their resolutions if future intimidations and physical violence occurred. Joe Grady, Imperal Wizard, White Knights of Liberty, was given permission to address the public regarding his position in racial strife. Mary Suits, member of the Ku Klux Klan, spoke regarding the KKK in Iredell County. Mason McCollough, Iredell County News, and Alvin Morrison spoke regarding their feelings about the Ku Klux Klan activities in the past and at the present. — Reverend Roman was given permission by the chairman to address some of the remarks made by Mr. Grady and Mrs. Suits.

Rick Howard Stated he would yield his time to David Parker. David Parker, Attorney, Statesville Mr. Parker reviewed the proposed amendments and pointed out what he considered were the flaws in the amendments and made suggestions to the county commissioners. He spoke for approximately forty-five minutes and concluded with two main points: (1) Density - How many units per acre? y (2) Minimum acres clarified. Rick Howard Mr. Howard said his property at the lake adjoins the proposed planned unit development. He questioned the minimum amount of acreage necessary for PUD's. He said the proposed PUD's could be placed on ten acres with a maximum of ten units per acre. Steve Tate, Attorney, representing Castaway Shores Deve lopment ( Mr. Tate said he was not there to discuss the amendments as he believed they had been well covered by David Parker.

Bill Goodin, Sailor's Lair Mr. Goodin said he saw a sign on the property announcing the proposed rezoning for PUD's and came to the meeting which had been postnoned. He later called the planning office, he said, and asked to be notified of the future meeting, but was not notified. Chandler Bryan Mr. Bryan suggested that the county commissioners not exceed the present density for single family housing in setting density for the PUD's.

EBERT PROPERTY: Lisa Beckham, planner, presented the board with the recommendation from the Iredell County Planning Board and showed the layout of the property requested for rezoning. Walter Jones, attorney representing Mr. Ebert, said the approximate 147 acres, located in southwest corner of I-77 and NC 150 (Iredell County Tax Map 2J, Block A, Lot 1), was requested for rezoning to M-2 Heavy Manufacturing. At the present time the developer is planning to locate a plastic bottle and container manufacturing company on this property, but theproperty will most probably be used for offices and small businesses in the future. Because of the topography of the property, Mr. Jones said, the development would be limited to Light Manufacturing, and also because of the lack of rail and gas, water and sewer lines. Ron Hollifield said he was not totally in opposition to the rezoning request, but questioned why he needed the total 147 acres zoned M-2 to build a plastic manufacturing plant. He thought Mr. Ebert needed a comprehensive site plan to comply with the ordinance. Miss Beckham said under the county's zoning ordinance a comprehensive site plan was not required. Chandler Bryan spoke in behalf of the proposed development, saying a site such as this would give diversity in manufacturing and business because it is not Suitable for large industry. HERONWOOD SUBDIVISION REQUEST FOR REZONING: Heronwood Associates property owners, 156 acres located at the end of East Monbo Road and bordering Duke Power State Park, was requesting rezoning from R-20 Single Family Residential to R-8A Multi-Family Conditional Use District. This pronerty is described as Iredell County Tax Map 3D, Block A, Lot 52 and Map 3D-3. Mr. Bert Walser, attorney representing the developer, came before the board to present the developer's request. Mr. Walser read letters from some surrounding i property owners and presented conies to the board. He said the density would not exceed 2.5 units per acre and showed an artist's rendition of how the units would look upon completion. Mr. Walser asked the board to place conditional uses on the property and said the finished condominiums would cost $100,000 each. The following letters were received in support of the Heronwood rezoning: Josephine S. Cornelius Fay P. Redding 9401 Gaither Road Fredricksburg, VA Gaithersburg, MD 20877 W. W. Pharr Miles J. Boyer 3630 Pinetop Road Crescent Land & Timber Corp. Greensboro, NC 27410 224 West Second Street Charlotte, NC 28230 Bill Holland, developer of Heronwood, snoke briefly about the project. James C. Wasson was opposed to the project because he felt the water was not deep enough in this part of the lake and because he thought they would require 600 to 800 boat slips, which he did not feel the area could accommodate. > 6 es * i g b15 ti, Ed Welch spoke regarding information of 75 rental houses that Duke Power State Park was planning to develop. Judy Cannon questioned the boat slips and said she was opposed only to condo- miniums on Lake Norman. Mr. Holland, developer, said there would not actually be boat slips for each unit; there would be tie-ups. Jim Kiberly and David Parker spoke regarding the possibility of pollution be- cause of the increased number of people. Paul Thorneburg, who owns operty across the cove from the proposed site, said he was against the condominiums. Doug Thorneburg, son of Paul Thorneburg, said he liked the peace and quiet of the lake, and it would be lost, he thought, if the condominiums were built. un Franz von Steed, from Spring Shores, questioned the safety of the lake with the increased number of homes. Tom Handy also was opposed because of safety on the lake. Madline Hanson said she was opposed to the condominiums because she did not want to lose the peace and quiet of the lake. Chandler Bryan said he was opposed to the condominiums because of no county water and sewer facilities. He presented a petition to the chairman signed by people who are opposed to Heronwood. Alison Clark said she had a problem with accepting the sewage disposal unit. Bob Setzer, vice president of the Mooresville/South Iredell Chamber of Commerce, said he represented the chamber who recognized the need for this type housing. Ron Hollifield said he did not think the board had enough information to approve the requested rezoning. Mrs. J. C. Wasson said people who lived on the lake are outside a fire zone and " an additional fire department would be needed. “= CHAIRMAN TROUTMAN CLOSED THE PUBLIC HEARING AT 9:55 P.M. AND RE-OPENED THE REGULAR MEETING OF THE IREDELL COUNTY BOARD OF COMMISSIONERS. ROBERT O. EBERT PROPERTY: MOTION from Commissioner Ostwalt to approve the request from Robert O. Ebert, changing property from M-1 Light Manufacturing to Heavy Manufacturing. This property is described as Iredell County Tax Map 2J, Biook A, Let i. In discussion of the motion, Commissioner Mills said he thought the M-2 zoning should have conditional uses, and Commissioner Campbell agreed with Mr. Mills' proposal. Commissioner Ostwalt amended his motion to include Conditional Use, M-2 Heavy Manufacturing. In discussing the amended motion, the county attorney questioned the legality of making this change since the developer had not requested this particular type of rezoning, and ChairmanTroutman said he believed Mr. Ebert should have his representatives present to discuss the conditional uses.

Commissioner Ostwalt requested the board members be given the opportunity to individually study the requests, have a called meeting to discuss this matter further, and take final action at the meeting on October 4th. Commissioner Mills said October 4 was not a part of his motion, but he believed the board should go on record as giving an answer by October 4th.

Wayne Deal, and Don Wall, social services director, ovresented information to the board concerning requested budget amendments. It was reported that an additional $13,750 in federal funds would be received for protective services, and acceptance of these funds does not require additional county funds. Because of uncertainties in federal funding for the social services department at this time the 1983-84 budget was prepared, an amendment to the budget is necessary to increase the budget. Expenditures for the department would be increased $86,708 and increase in revenues for the department would be increased $163,451. 117 This additional increase in revenues from federal monies results in a decrease of county funds in the budget in the amount of $76,743 be used to reduce the amount of Fund Balance Unappropriated in the 1983-84 budget. In addition to the above two requests, Mr. Wall requested permission to activate one of the two Eligibility Specialists II positions that was included in the 1983-84 budget. The inclusion of these two positions was stipulated with the board's re- quest that the social services director should come before the board of county commissioners to request permission to fill the position when it was needed. MOTION from Commissioner Ostwalt to approve the budget adjustments Mr. Wall reauested. Commissioner Ostwalt, ex~officio member to the social services board, referred to a memorandum dated September 15th, requesting salary adjustment for the social services director. This adjustment was a one-step increase. Part of Commissioner Ostwalt's motion above was that Mr. Wall be given a one-step salary increase adjust- ment. When the board members discussed this increase, it was recommended by the county manager that this should be termed a merit increase rather than a reclassification, and it should be included as an increase along with the other merit increases that budget policy set to begin on January l, 1984. Commissioner Ostwalt amended his motion to designate that Mr. Wall be given a one-step merit increase to be effective January 1, 1984. VOTING ON MOTION AND AMENDMENT: Ayes - 5; Nays - 0.

He has been in touch with some of the people living in the area of this bridge and found they did in fact use the bridge and would like for it to remain onen if at all possible. This bridge closing was brought to the attention of the board several years ago, and the board had at that time written let- ters to the Department of Transportation and requested the bridge not be closed. Mr. Camobell reported that the Highway Planning and Research Division of the board of Transportation has asked the county commissioners to make a recommendation pertaining to the proposed closing of Bridge #228.

September 27, 1983 The Iredell County Board of Commissioners met in Adjourned Regular Session on Tuesday evening, September 27, 1983, 7:30 n.m., Iredell County Annex Conference Room. Present for the meeting were: Joe HE. Troutman, Chairman (arriving at 9:00 p.m.) Frances L. Murdock, Vice Chairman B. W. Campbell William A. MIlls Samuel L. Ostwalt Staff present: J. Wayne Deal, County Manager Robert N. Randall, County Attorney Lisa Bekcham, Planner Members of the Sanitarian Division of the Health Department Bill Mashburn, Health Director CALL TO ORDER: By Vice Chairman Murdock INVOCATION: By Commissioner Mills WORKSHOP ON AMENDMENTS TO THE ZONING ORDINANCE: Commissioner Mills said he had invited Rollin Johnson to the meeting to discuss placing septic tanks in the Heronwood area. The sanitarians said approval of any septic tank over 3,000 gallons comes under the State. The only thing the county gives is an application rate and a design flow rate. They can also look at tonography (site location). It was explained that this particular area had a .4 application rate, which means each square foot of drainage area is capable of taking .4 gallons of sewage drainage per day. The amount of useage ver household is figured at 120 gallons per bedroom per day, so a three-bedroom home would use 360 gallons per day. The three types of soils are Class 2, Class 3, and Class 4 (under Class 4 are 4-A and 4-B). These classes identify the application rates. Class 3 application rates are .6 to .4. Class 4-A is .4 to .2. In Class 4-B, the rate is unsuitable. The lower the application rate, the more drainage field is required. Usually Class 2 soils are something that are not found in Piedmont or at least in this section of the state. Class 3 and Class 4 are clay soils (fine loams). A project the size of Heronwood would be approved on the state level because it is over 3,000 gallons. The State has to approve the design submitted from an engineer. The local sanitarians would supply the soil data and make site visits. ghee Ai Si LN “PF 122 Mr. Johnson said for maintenance sake, it would have to be determined who would own the site, the homeowners association, etc. (Third party agreements would have to be studied by the State.) James Jennings, Heronwood Develoner, said there would be a pump for a certain number of units. A back-up pump would be available in case of an emergency. He said the system that is proposed is a very exnensive and elaborate system, and there would be a nitrification field on each peninsula. For 118 units, they are planning to have an eight-acre nitrofication field. Sewage from the island units will be brought back to the mainland. The project will be required to designate a 100% repair area for the nitrofication field. Jack Moore explained the difference in the soil tests from the Iredell Soil and Water Conservation Office and the sanitation devartment, saying the sanitarians go deever into the soil than the soil and water service tests. The range of application rates in the county in general area: 10% 02 5 to 209 -3 Middle 4 20% °3 10% -6 In discussing the sewage treatment plant, Steve Tate, representing Castaway Shores Developers, said they plan to use a sewage treatment nlant which is monitored by the Utilities Commission. This system requires a licensed operator employed by the owners of the system who sends in reports to the Division of Environmental Manage- ment on a weekly and monthly basis. These reports are on the quality of affluents. He also submits samples on a regular basis. The retreated water from the sewage is permitted to be discharged into the lake. It was estimated by Lisa Beckham, planner, that there are 139 tracts on the lake with more than 20 acres that have an appreciable amount of lake frontage. In discussing whether or not to allow condominiums at the lake, Commissioner Campbell said he thought if the condominium concept were planned, it could be an asset to the county. He believes Lake Norman is going to be used and did not believe they are proposing something that is shabby or will hurt anybody. He felt that such development should be encouraged for tax base, etc. Commissioner Ostwalt said he believed the key was control of lake development and that the county commissioners should regulate the density. Chairman Troutman outlined the items on which the board needed to make a decision, which are listed below with the final consensus of the board: 1. Height restrictions - 35' maximum 2. Above-ground sewage treatment facility to be buffered. Open space at least 45' or 3 times height of the building and property line Minimum acreage - 10 Density - 3 units ver acre where less than 50% open space; 4 units per acre with more than 50% onen space Open space - defined as everything except the condominiums 123 7. Liability insurance - $10,000 per unit The board deferred making a decision on the island development at this time. It was the consensus of the board that this would be rewritten and presented to the board at the October 4th meeting for final adoption.

RALPH YOUNT PROPERTY: Lisa Beckham, planner, discussed the location of the Yount property with the board. This pronerty is located on Zodiac Drive, described as Iredell County Tax Map 8M, Block B, Lots 86, 86A & 93. Requested rezoning is from Highway Business to Light Manufacturing. Mr. Gerald Yount was present for the discussion and was introduced by Mr. Ralph Yount. No one present psoke in favor of or was opposed to the rezoning. Mr. Yount explained his request and showed a map of the three-acre tract requested for rezoning. GERALD NIETERS PROPERTY: Lisa Beckham, planner, discussed the location of the Nieters property with the board. Dr. Nieters was represented by John Massey, States- ville attorney, who addressed the board in Dr. Nieters' behalf. The property requested for rezoning is located at the corner of State Roads 1100 and 1109, de- scribed as Iredell County Tax Map 2K, Block B, Lot 33. Nieters requested this oe ee e " ay i acai rte e . it ete ' eae . ' ° ' re : “ys ae anh aa . eS a Fe Cas : mre eee Ait lo Re BS. sas ishs aban Stade! Bs * we 124 property be rezoned from Residential Agricultural to Community Business. Dr. Nieters said he was planning to put a shopping center in this area, which will have a grocery store, drug store, branch bank, restaurant, etc., at the proposed site. Commissioner Murdock asked how this would affect the Brawley School, and Dr. Nieters replied he did not think it would have any effect. Mr. Davis inquired about the effects of the shopping center on the Brawley school students. Mrs. Dana Pittman said she could not see that there would be any danger to the children at the school. Commissioner Campbell inquired about the proximity to the church and the selling of beer and wine at the shopping center. Dr. Nieters responded that there may be a restaurant at the site, but it would have controlled consumption of beer and wine because it is a restaurant. There would not be a bar, per se, at the shopping center, Dr. Nieters said. No one else spoke regarding the project. CORRIHER WATER SERVICE: Ms. Beckham informed the board this request had been withdrawn by Mr. Corriher. Gene Duckworth, present for this hearing, inquired about notification of pro- perty owners in the vicinity of a requested rezoning. He was concerned if he would be notified if this matter came un again. Gertrude Ward said her son received a letter advising him of the public hearing. The citizens were concerned with the fact the notice was posted on the property for such a short time. Ms. Bekcham explained her notification system, saying she posted the property and wrote the adjoining property owners. In this particular instance, there were four adjoining property owners. She said she used the names and addresses from the tax office. Bryan Murray said during the planning board meeting there was extreme opposi- tion to this rezoning. There was a petition with 37 signatures protesting the rezonina. He said he spoke with Ms. Beckham a week ago, and she told him she thought Mr. Corriher was considering withdrawing his request. He questioned if Mr. Corriher could request this rezoning again, if possibly people living in the sur- rounding area would not be aware of the public hearing and would not be able to be present to express their views. The citizens present at the hearing were concerned about lettering on a water tank in their community. The planning board had instructed him to remove the lettering as this was a form of advertising and is not covered under the present zoning. Mr. Corriher had removed the lettering, but left an arrow. The citizens' concern was whether or not the arrow constitutes a form of advertising. Ms. Beckham had told them they would have to get a ruling from the board of adjustment on this matter. 125 Warren Pittman inquired if the board printed actions of the meetings. He was referring to legal notices that are run in the Statesville Record & Landmark, the most widely circulated newspaper in the county, which carries the legal notices of the county's public hearings. He requested the board to run the advertisements in the Mooresville Tribune for the benefit of Mooresville citizens who subscribe to the Mooresville newspaner instead of the Statesville newspaper. VICE CHAIRMAN MURDOCK ADJOURNED THF PUBLIC HEARING AND RE-OPENED THE REGULAR MEETING OF THE BOARD.

NOTICES IN THE MOORESVILLE TRIBUNE: MOTION from Commissioner Ostwalt that the county staff be directed to put the same wording or similar wording in the Mooresville Tribune as is preser‘ » carried in the Statesville Record & Landmark in advertising public hearings of the county board. After a discussion of this motion, Commissioner Ostwalt withdrew his motion, and the county manager, Mr. Deal, was requested to make a recommendation on how to handle this matter and to make his recommendation at the next regular meeting of the board. ZONING ORDINANCE AMENDMENTS: In discussing the amendments presented to the board in Draft 4, Commissioner Campbell said he still had a problem with the proposed density. He believed this density would stagnate the development of the smaller tracts and would be working in favor of 100+ acreage tracts. Chairman Troutman said he would like to pronose that the board add "no island develooment" clause he had formerly proposed. (This clause had been deleted at the September 27th meeting since it was thought the Heronwood Island was the only island in the Iredell County portion of Lake Norman.) Mr. Troutman said he had since learned there were other islands that might be developed.

Wayne Deal, county manager, discussed the issue with the board and asked Mr. Lynn to discuss the length of bond term with the board. Mr. Lynn said in going with the 30-year term bonds, there would be more flexibili- ty of fiscal administration in repayment of the bonds. He said there was a difference Of $171,000 in the annual mayment by using the 30-year term, and Medicare revayment for interest is much better on present value basis to go long term (30 years). In conclusion, Mr. Lynn said the two key factors in his recommendation of a 30- year term are: (1) Flexibility in fiscal administration (2) Debt service charged in the first few years Mr. Allen Knox was questioned about his opinion as to the term of bond. mr. Knox said he was in favor of the 30-year term. 4 Ape De i : ie ARRON 127 In discussing the decision to go with the 30-year term, Chairman Troutman said he did not know what the public's reaction would be if the board goes with the 30- year term, but the people do not have the information that has been made available to the board in mkaing a decision, he said.

The intent of this district is to permit flexibility and provide performance criteria for Planned Residential Developments, which through the issuance of a special use permit: - permit a creative apnroach to the development of residential land; - accomplish a more desirable environment than would be possible through the strict application of minimum requirements of the zoning ordinance; - provide for an efficient use of land; - enhance the appearance of neighborhoods through preservation of natural features; - provide for recreational areas and open space; and - provide an opportunity for new approaches to living environment and provide an environment of stable character compatible with surrounding residential areas. Application for Planned Residential District (PRD) designation requires simul- taneous application for a special use permit issued by the board of county commis- sioners, under the vrocedures provided herein. 87.1 Permitted Uses. All types of residential construction, including single and multi-family (attached and detached), townhouse, condominiums, and customary accessory uses. 87.2 Development Standards.

VOTING ON MOTION AND AMENDMENT: Ayes - 5; Nays - 0. In discussing the re-opening of the public hearing for the purpose of hearing the Heronwood rezoning request, the Chairman, Joe H. Troutman, said he was not well acquainted with the new procedures for the public hearing and requested the county attorney, Robert N. Randall, conduct the meeting. After a discussion, at was the consensus of the board and David Parker, representing those opposed to the rezoning, that Mr. Randall should not conduct the meeting since he had been in- volved as legal counsel in a deed transfer for the Heronwood Developers. At the request of the Chairman, Commissioner Mills conducted the meeting. CHAIRMAN MILLS CLOSED THE REGULAR MEETING AND OPENED THE PUBLIC HEARING. The attorneys, Robert N. Randall, representing Iredell County; Bert Walser, representing Heronwood Developers; and David Parker, representing the citizens opposed to the rezoning; concurred that a regular public hearing should be held first, according to the County board's regular procedures. Following this hearing, the Special Use Hearing would be held. Mr. Walser and Mr. Parker agreed that all evidence presented under the regular public hearing rules would be admissable under the Special Use Public Hearing procedure. Because of the new regulations involved in a Special Use Public Hearing, the parties involved requested a short recess to prepare for their presentations. COMMISSIONER MILLS RECESSED THE PUBLIC HEARING FOR TEN MINUTES. CHAIRMAN TROUTMAN ASSUMED THE CHAIR AT THE CONCLUSION OF THE BREAK.

A. Croson Columbus, O $1,195,888 MOTION from ChairmanTroutman to approve the recommendation from the Hospital Board of Directors and award the contracts to the four low bidders (listed above). In discussing the motion Commissioner Campbell inquired about the availability of local construction companies. Mr. Nunnery said the law does not permit considera- tion of location in determining award of bids. VOTING ON MOTION: Ayes - 5; Nays - 0. Chairman Troutman commented on the bid prices quoted, that the prices had fallen since the beginning of the project. He said he hoped it would work out equally well in the bond interest market rate. All bids received for the construction of the hospital are filed in the Register of Deeds Office as a part of the minutes and are on file in the Office of the Clerk to the Board. REVALUATION REPORT: Mr. Ferris; Brent Weisner, Project Manager; and Lois troutman, Tax Supervisor; presented the board with the latest revaluation report. Mr. Weisner said they had finished with all the process with the exception of matching the county's billing files with the revaluation files, and they hoped to finish that in the following week. Mr. Weisner said they were printing final set of cards, which would tax approximately fifty hours. As soon as Mrs. Troutman and he ascertain they are correct, they will send them out. Bill Ferris spoke regarding the comparison of sales data. He said they had compared sales data from 1981 until the present sales data with the revaluation values and found the revaluation figures are right at 100% of the market value figures. He said they had done 99 different reports and these reports showed the appraisal is on market value. He said the revaluation figures were "strong values" and they proposed to defend them. The notices are going out the first week in November. Mrs. Troutman said they were getting a letter in the mail through Kenneth Vaughn's Office (Agricultural Extension) regarding application for farm use values. Chairman Troutman commended Brent Weisner, Ferris Project manager, for the e vilae ea OS we + AM ge oe 137 good job he has done on the reappraisal. CHAIRMAN TROUTMAN ADJOURNED THE MEETING TO A PUBLIC HEARING AND COMMISSIONER MILLS ASSUMED THE CHAIR. Bert Walser, representing Heronwood Developers, spoke for Heronwood's request for rezoning. Mr. Walser said he had not come prepared to follow the other procedures (Special Use Public Hearing). He said they had just brought "our group of people." Mr. Walser siad he throught the qeustion was, "Is this county going to allow condominium family housing on the lake?" "There is no more perfect place for rezoning on the lake," he said. David Parker, attorney representing the Chandler Bryan group opposed to the rezoning, introduced Chandler Bryan and his son, Chan, who sowed a slide presenta- tion of the proposed Heronwood site. Mr. Parker then asked all in the audience who were opposed to the rezoning to stand. Mr. Parker gave the following reasons for being against the rezoning: (1) Narrow lake (2) Road condition (3) Police protection (4) Fire protection (5) Changes in the character of lake (trees to buildings) (6) Erosion (7) Lower appraised value of single family dwellings Mr. Parker presented an affidavit signed by C. Chandler Bryan, a letter from Holland Realty and Mortgate Corporation regarding the effects of fair market value on single family housing, and a petition signed by residents of the area protesting "any amendment, change, or modification” of the property known as Heron- wood Property. (All these documents are on file in the Office of the Clerk to the Board. ) In rebuttal, Mr. Walser said the road was graded according to state specifica- tions. Regarding Section 131 of the Zoning Ordinance, referred to in the petition presented by Mr. Parker, Mr. Walser interpreted this to mean 20 per cent of the area of lots, not 20 per cent of the number of people residing in the area. He said until the new zoning ordinance was passed, the property was eligible for multi-family housing. He asked that "nuisance," referred to by Mr. Parker in his opening statement be defined. He said Heronwood Developers had originally gone to the planning board in 1981 regarding the proposed zoning for the condominiums. Dempsey Moose, Catawba County, spoke opposing the condominium development. ACTING CHAIRMAN MILLS CLOSED THE PUBLIC HEARING AT 10:35 P.M. CHAIRMAN TROUTMAN RESUMED THE CHAIR. In discussing what action the county commissioners would take, Commissioner Campbell discussed leaving off a portion of the cove, identified as sites 1 - 23, these remaining single family residences. The depth of this area would extend to the road. The board meeting adjourned temporarily so that the Heronwood Developers could discuss this proposal and re-opened at 11:10 p.m. = i eTRD + GA ot .. Saeuniiie sia bat Aes. 138 Mr. Walser proposed to the county commissioners that Heronwood withdraw consid- eration of the PRD area and that they would later have a formal survey of that area known as "Clark's Cove," which includes everything from the road to the water, from the back edge of the property down to the line, womewhere between #22 and #23, will be removed and remain single family dwellings. David Parker said this would not change his opposition to the project and listed the following: (1) Thinks Heronwood should reapply (2) Are opposed to the Heronwood project as a whole, will make no compromise. MOTION from Commissioner Murdock to deny the request from Heronwood for re- zoning as presented. VOTING: Ayes ~- 4; Nays - 1 (Ostwalt).

PUBLIC HEARING: (1) J. Moore Reid Request for rezoning of property located on Alcove Road, Residential Agricultural to General Business. Ms. Beckham showed the location of the property and said the request came with favorable recommendation from the planning board. David Wright spoke regarding placement of a billboard on this property under the proposed rezoning. No one else spoke about this property. cubec aca wine A ARO Mea 8 ' ay 143 (2) Pauline Z. Chappell request for rezoning of property on US 21, south of Troutman, from Residential Agricultural to Highway Business. Ms. Beckham showed the location of the property and said the request came with favorable recommendation from the planning board. Mrs. Chappell was present to answer questions regarding the rezoning request. She said a machinery show was planned for the proposed rezoned area. Robert N. Randall, County Attorney, said all the surrounding neighbors were in favor of the proposed rezoning when it was on the planning board's agenda. No one else spoke regarding this project. (3) Vance Gregory request for rezoning of property located at Hunting Creek and I-77, from Residential Agricultural to Highway Business. Ms. Beckham showed the location of the property on the map and said the request came from favorable recommendation from the planning board. No one else present spoke regarding this property. (4) Luther E. Campbell request for rezoning of property located at Hunting Creek and I-77, from Residential Agricultural to Highway Business. Ms. Beckham showed the location of the property on the map and said the request came with favorable recommendation from the planning board. Mrs. Esther Moore, who lives in the vicinity of the proposed rezoning, inquired about what would be constructed on the 3/10 acre located on the eastern side of I-77. Ms. Beckham explained the majority of the propety in the proposed rezoning lies on the western side of I-77. Mr. Randall said even though the 3/10 acre is requested for rezoning, in order for a building to be erected there, the building would have to meet set-back require- ments, etc., which makes it improbable for the location of any business on that side of the interstate. No one else spoke regarding this property. CHAIRMAN TROUTMAN ADJOURNED THE PUBLIC HEARING AND RE-OPENED THE REGULAR MEETING. J.

CHAIRMAN TROUTMAN ADJOURNED THE MEETING TO A PUBLIC HEARING. CONTINUATION OF PUBLIC HEARING ON ZONING AMENDMENTS: This public hearing began i on October 18, 1983, and was adjourned to this time so that certain changes could be made in the amendments prior to final adoption. Commissioner Murdock inquired about the type of signs used for posting the property. She was interested in the metal signs similar to the ones used by the Town of Troutman. Commissioner Ostwalt made the suggestion and it was the consensus of the board that the five-day notification period provosed in Section 130 should be changed to ten days. Ron Hollifield was present and discussed his views on certain changes being made by the amendments. He questioned having a duplicate set of zoning maps in case of fire at the planning office. He suggested that they may be recorded at the Regis- ter of Deeds and throught it would be worth the expense to have this done. The authenticity of the maps was questioned since the maps may be changed by anyone going into the planning office. It was pointed out by the county attorney that all changes in zoning are recorded in the minutes of the county commissioners’ meetings, designating the specific map numbers, block numbers, and lot numbers bhing changed by rezoning. Mr. Hollifield questioned Section 142 of the amendments where presumed errors are grandfathered. Chairman Troutman and the County Attorney explained that this procedure is in keeping with state statutes and is practiced by the General Assembly. This practice is to cover bona fide errors that cannot be corrected otherwise, the chairman said. a CHAIRMAN TROUTMAN ADJOURNED THE PUBLIC HEARING AT 9:00 A.M., AND REOPENED THE REGU- LAR MEETING. ADOPTION OF THE AMENDMENTS TO THE ZONING ORDINANCE: MOTION from Commissioner Ostwalt stating, "In view of the time that has been spent on this matter, the board of commissioners waives its policy of having two readings and in this case moves ; final adoption of the drafted amendments revised by the planning board, presented to the county commissioners on October 25th, and as revised in the meeting this evening." VOTING: Ayes - 5; Nays - 0. 145 Chairman Troutman by consensus of the Board adjusted the agenda to hear from Mr. Bill Morrow, member of the Water-Sewer Needs Planning Committee. WATER-SEWER PLANNING COMMITTEE REPORT: The county manager, J. Wayne Deal, had mailed the county commissioners a summary of the committee's recommendation. At this time Mr. Bill Morrow, chairman of the committee, gave a formal report to the board. Mr. Morrow said it was the unanimous decision of the committee to recommend to the county commissioners that a consulting engineer be employed to do an overall study of the water and sewer needs of the county. Commissioner Campbell inquired if there were not other studies done by other agencies that would suffice. Mr. McCall, chairman of the Iredell Water Corporation, said they had made a residential study of the water needs for the area north of U. S. 70/64. He said they would be glad to have their study consolidated with the proposed study for the entire county. He thought this would help in getting a comprehensive study of the county's needs. He said they had done no studies regarding sewer needs. Commissioner Mills said he believed the county needs to look at getting propos- als on a comprehensive county-wide study. A person who does such a study will draw on all these existing resources, he said. Commissioner Ostwalt said he believed the board needed to get the county manager to seek out through whatever sources are available those persons who are qualified to do this study and let them give us a quotation on this. He also asked if the planning committee's recommendation is for both water and sewer needs over all the county. Commissioner Campbell inquired if it were feasible to discuss sewer needs in North Iredell. MOTION from Commissioner Ostwalt to authorize the county manager to talk with consultants in this field and let them make proposals. These proposals would then be brought back to the board for a decision. Following this, the board would let bids for a comprehensive study. VOTING: Ayes - 5; Nays - 0. It was the consensus of the board that this work would proceed as quickly as possible. Mr. Randall, county attorney, said the regional planning with Centralina Council of Governments may have data that would be helpful in this study. REVALUATION REPORT: Mr. Bill Ferris and Mr. Brent Weisner, Ferris Company, and Mrs. Troutman, tax supervisor, were present to discuss the revaluation values. Mr. Ferris believes the values are very close to market value. He said the notices were to be mailed within a few days and said they were going to use the appointment method to discuss values with taxpayers who have questions about their values. He asked that the county commissioners refer the citizens who question them about the values to the appraisal company and ask them to call and make an appointment. Whalada chy TORESER aaa 3 ‘eu Ne 146 TOBACCO ALLOTMENT ASSESSMENTS: Two farmers from the northern end of the county were present. They were concerned about the taxation of the tobacco allotments. Comissioner Campbell questioned this tax also, saying that he believed there was no value on the allotment unless a person was going to grow tobacco. He said he be- lieved it was like a milke base that dairy farmers purchase. Mr. Ferris said the Machinery Act requires the taxation of tobacco allotments, and it was his feeling that the county should adhere to this law until it has been changed or repealed. He suggested that these farmers get together and talk to their legislators and see what they can do to get the law repealed. REFUNDS, RELEASES AND AFTERLISTS: MOTION from Commissioner Murdock to approve the refunds, releases and afterlists as presented from the tax supervisor's office. VOTING: Ayes - 5; Nays - 0.

Wayne Deal and EOC Director Chuck Gallyon were present to discuss the scheduling of the personnel in thekOC. It was recommended by the county manager and EOC director that a system similar to the one used in the sheriff's department be used in this department also. This requires five persons, with four working set shifts and one operating a floating shift. The person working the floating shift serves as a relief to each of the other four during times of annual leave, sick leave, or other required absences from the job. This person would also use the remaining time to carry out wen other duties as assigned by the EOC director. Mr. Deal said this would not require any additional funds in the current budget year, and would require $3,970 in additional funds in the 1984-85 budget year. MOTION from Chairman Troutman to approve the fifth position for the emergency operations center. VOTING: Ayes - 5; Nays - 0. HEALTH DEPARTMENT - MISCELLANEOUS REQUESTS: Bill Mashburn, health director, came before the board regarding requests for his department.

MOTION from Commissioner Campbell to approve the physician extender position rather than contract the service as we are presently doing. Commissioner Campbell also requested approval from the county commissioners for the TB budget. This request is for an increase in the revenues for the TB program, resulting in an additional $9500 allocation from State funds. VOTING on the physician extender position and the TB program increase in funds: Ayes - 5; Nays - 0. County Attorney Randall advised the staff to get with the risk management people at Centralina regarding the risk management insurance for the physician extender program. Jobs Bill Act - Additional Funds to County: Mr. Mashburn informed the board that the federal Jobs Bill Act provides money to the county for health services for the unemployed. An additional $8,336 will be received by the county for the Maternal Child Care Health Program, and additional $1,100 will be received by the county for RM i ce 149 the Adult Health Services. These funds were approved by the health board and recom- mended for approval by the board of county commissioners.

This ordinance places restraints on the use of land and its improvements by establishing minimum standards. Prior to the adoption of this ordinance, land and improvements were used and plans were initiated to use land and improvements in a number of instances according to standards below the standards established in this ordinance. It is recognized that the strict application of the provisions of this ordinance to circumstances emanating from past actions and past intentions as regards the use of land, when no standards or lesser standards were in existence, could yield hardships. It is recognized further that properties which do not now conform to the provisions of this ordinance could be allowed to be used in such ways without violating the spirit of this ordinance. Accordingly, the following sections refer to distuations, in which lots have been platted prior to the adoption of this ordinance with dimentsions and other characteristics which are not in con- forming with the standards of this ordinance to treatment of existing uses and structures not in conformity with the standards of this ordinance; to standards for the reconstruction of damaged structures whick do not conform to the standards of this ordinance; and to changes in zoning, subsequent to the adoption of this ordi- nance, as these might affect conformity of parcels of land, their use or improvements thereon to the standards of this ordinance. 60.2 Nonconforming Vacant Lots. This category of nonconformance consists of vacant lots for which plats or descriptions have been recorded in the office of the Register of Deeds of Iredell County, which at the time of the effective date of this ordinance, June 1, 1983, fail to comply with the dimensional requirements for the districts in which they are located. Any such nonconforming lot may be used for any of the uses permitted by this ordinance in the district in which it is located, provided: 66.262 Such vacant lot of record does not abut another lot of record to which it can be combined as provided for in Section 100. Lot of Record. 60.2.2 Minimum requirements of the district for front yard, side yard, rear yard, height and unobstructed open space shall be complied with. 60.3 Nonconforming Occupied Lots or Buildings. This category of nonconformance consists of lots, occupied by buildings or structures at the time of the passage of this ordinance, that fail to comply with minimum requirements for area, width, front yard, side yard, rear yeard, height, unobstructed open space and other requirements for the districts in which they are located. Structures and buildings on these lots may be improved, enlarged, and extended, provided as follows: 60.3.1 Any such improvement, enlargement or extension of buildings or structures shall comply with minimum requirements as to front yard, side yard, rear yard, height and unobstructed open space for the district in which they are located. 60.3.2 The existence of a nonconforming condition on a lot, parcel or tract of land shall not provent the construction of additional buildings or structures on said parcel, lot or tract so long as said building or structure itself meets the require- ments of this ordinance. 60.3.3 Nonconforming conditions such as absent or substandard buffering, parking space, landscaping or loading space, existing at the enactment of this ordinance on premises used for a conforming use may be continued so long as they are not enlarged or otherwise made less conforming. The construction or erection of structures or buildings shall not be considered an enlargement or extension of such conditions. 60.4 Nonconforming Open Uses of Land. This category of nonconformances consists of lots used for storage yards, used car lots, auto wrecking, junk yards, golf driving ranges, miniature golf, and similar open uses where the only buildings on the lot are incidental and accessory to the open use of the lot and where such use of the land is not permitted to be established hereafter, under this ordinance, in the district in which it is located. A nonconforming open use of land may be continued except as follows: 7 diac a Ua ihe ide 60.4.1 When nonconforming open use of land has been changed to a conforming use, it shall not thereafter be used for any nonconforming use. 60.4.2 Nonconforming open uses of land shall not be changed to any but conforming uses. 60.4.3 A nonconforming open use of land shall not be enlarged to cover more land than was occupied by that use when it became non-conforming. 60.4.4 When any nonconforming open use of land is discontinued for a period in excess Of one year, any future use of the land shall be limited to those uses per- mitted in the district in which the nonconforming use of land is located.
