POPE TO CHAIR THE HEARING: Chairman Sloan turned the chairmanship over to County Attorney Bill Pope, who began the hearing. ZONING HEARING: Chairman Pope set forth rules of procedures for an orderly meeting. At the request of Chairman Pope, Jerry Lundy outlined the zoning recommendation from the planning board. The proposed zoning consists of approximately 900 acres, bounded on the south by Town of Mooresville's extraterritorial boundary, on the west by Mazeppa Road (SR 2395), on the east by NC Highway 801, and on the north by Triplett Road (SR 2362). There is presently no zoning on this property. Mr. Lundy made a further staff recommendation to change the zoning on lots 20, 21 and 32 along Highway 801 from M-2 to RA. The total area recommended for M-2 is smaller by about 60 acres. This creates a distance of about 1200 feet from the highway to the M-2 zone, Mr. Lundy said. He also recommended that the board of commissioners consider a minimum of 50' buffer around the property and require trees to be placed on the property where M-2 touches the RA zoning, but not where M-2 touches the railroad. Mr. Lundy stated there were two requests before the board: (1) To amend the Land Development Plan; and (2) To zone the property. This comes recommended by the Planning Board, Mr. Lundy said.

Mr. Zimmer went through the study with the board members and answered questions the board had regarding the equipment, etc. Mr. Zimmer reported there were 23 wells owned by Iredell Water; 16 of the 23 are presently in operation. The sixteen wells produce two million gallons of water per day. According to the earlier CDM study, the projected need for year 2005 is a maximum daily demand of four million gallons. Additional capacity will be needed by 1995. The wells are 250' to 500' deep. He said the elevated water tanks are in good condition; the ground tank needs repainting. Commissioner Hedrick inquired when the tanks were painted inside. Mr. Zimmer said he would need to get that information. In reference to the pipelines, Mr. Zimmer said the lines were lain between 1968 and 1989. One- half of the pipeline is PVC; one-fourth is ductile iron; and one-fourth is asbestos cement. The board discussed a raw water source. A question was raised by the County Attorney regarding the value of rights-of-way. Mr. Joel Mashburn inquired if any of the wells would need to be replaced. Following this discussion, Mr. Bill Furches and the County's CPA firm gave a report on the financial status of the water corporation.

TIRE RECOVERY, INC., DEEP RUN, NC, DISCUSSION OF RECYCLING TIRES AT LANDFILL, MR. JOHNNY BRAXTON: Mr. Braxton presented his plan to the board. He explained the legislation that will be effective as of January 1, 1991, in reference to the new tax imposed upon the sale of tires, which tax will be used for disposal of the tires. Mr. Braxton proposed to pick up the tires at the landfill and transport them to Atlanta, where they will be shredded and used for fuel. Mr. Brax- ton's charge for picking up the tires is 36¢ for a car tire. It tax approximately 1300 passenger — to make up a tractor-trailer load. This would be $475; freight would be $385; total would be 860. Another suggestion Mr. Braxton had was to leave the scrap tires at the tire company, and his service would pick them up there. These would alleviate some of the personnel cost of the tire distributor as well as the landfill. After further discussion the county manager requested if the board concurs with this concept, to allow the landfill supervisor, the finance officer and himself to make a thorough study of the new legislation and bring back a proposal to the board from Tire Recovery, Inc., based on the new legislation, and the board can act on the matter at that time. Mr. Mashburn also remarked that he had received a letter regarding another program that pro- posed bringing a shredder to the landfill site to shred the rubber. It would be the county's responsibility to dispose of the shredded rubber. It was the consensus of the board for the manager to proceed with a final recommended plan. AUTHORIZATION FOR CAR ASSIGNED TO SHERIFF IN LIEU OF MONTHLY CAR ALLOWANCE: The sheriff currently receives $250 for monthly car allowance and is requesting an increase or an unmarked car purchased for his use. After discussion, MOTION was made by Commissioner Hedrick that the Sheriff's travel allowance be increased from $250 to $350 for the remainder of this budget year. The funds are to come from the Sheriff's budget. VOTING: Ayes - 5; Nays - 0.

It was stated if the board holds everything pretty constant the board could go next fiscal year without a tax increase. The board discussed a 43% increase for schools current expense. Dr. Williams has said with an inflationary increase the county schools would be o.k. Other suggestions for 90-91 budgets are more water and sewer funds; $14 to $2 million for asbestos removal at Hall of Justice may be necessary. Mrs. Carolyn Harris presented a Salary Schedule Proposal. The proposal recommended the steps be extended through 108. They now stop at 8A. The staff would like to put this proposal on the agenda in the near future. A discussion was held regarding an Organization Study that would be performed by an independent outside agency such as David M. Griffin. The manager named a couple of counties who had conducted a similar study. The board discussed the revaluation. Information on three types of possible revals was distri- buted. The manager recommended the review. There was a consensus that the review revaluation would be conducted. Other questions that need to be answered are the bid and contract. It was established that this would be back on the agenda for December 18th, at which time the staff plans to have all the required information and will be able to make a recommendation. Mrs. Lois Troutman also brought up the penalty on the Department of Motor Vehicle listing. There is currently a $100 no-list penalty charged if the automobile is not listed when the tag is purchased. The board needs to make a decision on the penalty charge and should give Mrs. Troutman some direction. Mrs. Troutman is removing as many as she can through the release method, but many cannot be released. The board discussed water line extensions and the CDM study that was completed in 1986. Two water districts are recommended in this study. Chairman Sloan said he would like to meet with the mayors of Statesville and Mooresville and resume the discussions of water and sewer extensions. The county manager is setting up a meeting date for the three elected officials to get together. The board and staff discussed the old court house renovation and the open house and dedication. The date for the open house and dedication was set for April 1, 1990, 2:00 p.m. The board members made the suggestion to invite either the Governor: Dan Quayle, Vice President: or Judge Fred Hed- rick, a North Carolina Supreme Court Judge; as keynote speaker. This concluded December 1st. The board reconvened on Saturday morning, December 2nd, at 8:00 a.m. Mr. Larry Hedrick and the County Attorney joined the group. The board began discussion at around 8:30 a.m., following the Continental Breakfast, with zoning matters. The first item was the proposed junk car ordinance. The county attorney was to check into the ordinance and reschedule for a January meeting. The board decided to eliminate the agenda briefings in January, which are both scheduled on holidays, 1/1 and 1/15. The board discussed the Water Supply Management and Protection Ordinance introduced by staff. A recommendation was made by staff to use a consultant to implement this ordinance. MOTION was made by Commissioner Crosswhite to accept staff's recommendation and use a consultant and move ahead on this ordinance. VOTING: Ayes - 5; Nays - 0. The board discussed capital needs and financing of the capital needs. The board discussed the Solid Waste Law revisions which call for a 1% levy on old tires. This charged is levied on the consumer at the time of purchase of the tires. The board also discussed subsidizing garbage collectors to go into areas where it is not economically feasible. It was thought it would not be good to build more transfer stations because of the changes in the solid waste laws. The board discussed the completed VISIONS plans and recognition of the people who worked on these various committees. The question arose about what happened to these committees once their jobs were completed. Chairman sloan said he would get in touch with Chandler Bryan and Joe Troutman and asked them to priortize the recommendations from the four committees. Revaluation was the final topic. The board decided they would make a final decision on what kind of revaluation to have at the December 18th meeting. The meeting concluded at 12:40 p.m. Next meeting is scheduled for Monday, December 5, 1989, 3:00 p.m., Agricultural Center Conference Rooms 1 & 2, Statesville. vy 4, (fe.

A petition is going out for signatures for the county-wide system, and there seems to be strong support for it. IREDELL COUNTY SCHOOLS, PROPOSED NORTH MIDDLE SCHOOL SITE: Mr. Mashburn announced the Iredel] County School Board exercised its option on the property that has been under discussion recently. This property is in the North Iredell County area. It is estimated by the school officials that a well and water tank for the school will cost approximately $300,000. The cost of extending water lines from the existing Iredell] Water Corporation line at Union Grove to the North Iredel] Middle School property will be approximately $150,778. The question arose as to who would provide funding for this project. In the past the only precedent that has been set has been that of the Mt. Mourne sewer line system, which was paid for by the school system. The ownership of this line has not been completely resolved at this time. In 1987 the County entered an agreement with Iredell] Water Corporation to run water to North Iredell] High School. This was done under a contractural basis with reimbursement to come from the Iredell] Water Corporation over a twenty-year period at no interest. No action taken. DISCUSSION OF PROPOSED ORGANIZATIONAL STUDY: Commissioner Murdock inquired when work would begin on the organizational study proposed in the FY 1989-90 budget.

Commissioner Stewart said she would like to involve other departments in addition to social services and health. It was decided that David M. Griffin representatives would be present at the December 18th briefing to present information to board. NO BOARD ACTION TAKEN.

Those present for the meeting were: R. B. Sloan, Jr., Chairman Alice M. Stewart, Vice Chairman Jessie S. Crosswhite Larry S. Hedrick Frances L. Murdock i Staff present: Joel Mashburn, County Manager Alice Fortner, Clerk to the Board F. W. Furches, Jr., Finance Officer Lois Troutman, Tax Assessor Jim Wall, Recreation Director Carolyn Harris, Personnel Director Jerry Lundy, Planning Director Chairman Sloan called the meeting to order at 3:00 p.m. DAMAGE FROM HUGO AT STATESVILLE CITY SCHOOLS: Dr. Carson, Statesville City Schools Superinten- dent, and the Statesville City Schools finance officer were present to discuss the damage occurring at Northview School because of Hurricane Hugo. They presently need funds to do the repairs from the storm damage and are requesting that they be allowed to use the capital outlay funds budgeted by the county ($166,352) to help defray these costs. These funds would be used first; and in the meantime. they would apply for the Public School Capital Funds Available ($245,246). When the insurance settlement and the FEMA funds are received, these funds will be reimbursed and the capital projects for which these funds were intended can be resumed. The county manager advised the board of the options available to the board in consideration of this request. PRESENTATION OF PLANS FOR ORGANIZATIONAL STUDY: Mr. John House of David M, Griffin gave a presentation of the methodology his firm would use in an organizational study. He also expressed his reasons for thinking an outside agency could do a better job of a study. The study is to include social services and the health department. The board inquired about adding mental health, but it was decided that this should be looked at as a separate issue. The contract for this work is to come back to the board at the January 2, 1989 meeting for approval. RECREATION DEPARTMENT - MATCHING GRANTS: Mr. Jim Wall, Recreation Director, came before the board to request approval of the recreation grants. Twenty-two thousand eight hundred fifty dollars ($22,850) is budgeted for this line item. Total expenditure recommended by recreation director and advisory board is $22,700. Mr. Jim Wall spent time discussing the Iredell County Athletic Association (ICYAA) with the board. ‘ — PROPOSED CHANGE IN SALARY PLAN: Mrs. Carolyn Harris, Personnel Director, was present to discuss the salary plan with the board. The recommendation is to add 2 1/2 steps to the existing plan, which presently stops at 8A. It is thought this would help address some of the problems in seeking new employees. DISCUSSION OF IREDELL COUNTY SCHOOLS REQUEST FOR WATER LINE TO THE PROPOSED NORTH MIDDLE SCHOOL SITE: Mr. Mashburn inquired what the board's position would be in regard to this proposed water line from the Union Grove area to the new site of the North Middle School. It is estimated that running the water line would be about one-half the cost of drilling a well and having an elevated storage tank. Mr. Mashburn said precedent has been set in a similar situation when a line was run to North Iredell High School, being paid for by the County, turned over to Iredell Water Corpora- tion, who is to reimburse the County over a twenty-year period. Another similar situation exists at the Mt. Mourne School when a sewer line was extended. The board reviewed other agenda items and placed some on consent. ADJOURN: Chairman Sloan adjourned the meeting at 5:15 p.m. Next meeting on December 19, 1989, 7:30 p.m., Agricultural Center Conference Rooms 1 & 2, Statesville. ‘ y a ? / _~ blLiu AtthHrlLe ville Clerk # av / APPROVED: / G0 4 pay 1216 IREDELL COUNTY BOARD OF COMMISSIONERS MINUTES DECEMBER 19, 1989 The Iredell County Board of Commissioners met in Adjourned Regular Session on Tuesday, December 19, 1989, 7:30 p.m., Agricultural Center Conference Rooms 1 & 2, Statesville, NC.

RESOLUTION REGARDING COUNTY-WIDE TELEPHONE SERVICE: MOTION from Commissioner Sloan to adopt the resolution as amended, amendment encourging county-wide toll-free service, which reads as follows: WHEREAS, it has long been recognized that having to pay long distance telephone charges establishes communication barriers, and WHEREAS, we feel that such a barrier is perpetuating a division in some of the areas of Iredell County because not all people can communicate as much as they would like to, and WHEREAS, long distance telephone charges hamper business dealings, school communications between teachers and parents, and even encourage people to establish business and service relationships out of the county rather than in our own county, and WHEREAS, Extended Area Service (EAS) is the answer to our communications problems, realizing that negative response from telephone companies for the EAS service can be overcome by the citizens of the county working together to resolve this communications problem; NOW, THEREFORE, it is believed that this is the ideal time for the citizens of Iredell County to work together to gain the advantages of toll-free telephone service countywide, AND FURTHER, we encourage our citizens to assist in obtaining letters, serve on committees, or assist with petitions, and call either of the 1coal Chambers of commerce for more information and your offer of assistance.

SPRINGS MILLS - REQUEST FOR CLARIFICATION OF BOARD ACTION TAKEN ON NOVEMBER 21, 1989: Mr. Bert Walser, attorney, represented Springs Mills. Chairman Sloan said it was his thinking that the November 21, 1989 minutes accurately reflected the intent. He read the amendment as it was last past, which was "The amendment from Mrs. Stewart stating, ‘Adjust the penalty to one-third of the $6,291.26 or $2,097.15.' I understood that intent was the penalty would be $2,097.15." Chairman Sloan inquired if there was further discussion. Mr. Bert Walser stated that was what his understanding was. Commissioner Hedrick inquired what the basis was for the misunderstanding. Where was Mrs. Troutman (statement not finished) Mrs. Lois Troutman, Tax Asssessor: I specifically asked the board to tell me how much to release, and I was told to release $2,097.15, which was just one-third of the penalty. Even if I had been told release four thousand and something, I would have. Commissioner Hedrick inquired what the tape said. Commissioner Hedrick said it seemed to him that if Mrs. Troutman asked a specific auestion and we gave you a specific answer, that the board ought to go on that as opposed to (Statement not finished. ) Mrs. Troutman said whatever the board says. (not clear), But she said she specifically asked for a figure, because this has happened before. Commissioner Hedrick said we need to rely on what was said rather than what was paraphrased or. And if it's right, it's right. Commissioner Stewart said all she knew was what the motion said. Chairman Sloan said Mrs. Stewart made the motion, and that was my understanding at the time. I don't remember the communication, Mrs. Troutman. I'm sure you're accurate in what you're saying. 1 rperpre At Bot © 1 ror? Fo Fw 6b But I don't remember us talking about that. The clerk said she would be glad to check the tape. Commissioner Hedrick said just for information he would like to have a transcript of that particular tape. Mr. Walser said it may make Mr. Hedrick feel better. He has a copy of the newspaper's article summarizing that meeting. Commissioner Hedrick said with all due respect, he would rely on the tape. REQUEST FOR FOSTER CARE BOARD RATE INCREASE: Mr. Don Wall, Social Services Director, came before the board in reference to an increase of the foster care board rate.

At this time, he summarized the meeting with Mr. Ritter and reviewed changes that have occurred as a result of the Ritter meeting. The next step would be design development stage and getting ready to bid later in the year. The cost is estimated to be $8.6 million for the building and $497,179 for engineering and design, for a total cost of $9,181,639. Mr. Duncan said alternates could add or reduce this final number. In discussing doing test borings, Commissioner Hedrick suggested that Air Drilling, a local company, be contacted for a quotation. Mr. Joel Mashburn, county manager, made a recommendation to proceed with the design development phase of the project, which will cost $110,545. Mr. Duncan explained this next stage, which will take about two and one-half months. At the end of this period, Mr. Duncan said the board could be relatively sure they were within 5% (up or down) of the cost of the building.

PROPOSAL FOR ESTABLISHMENT OF A HUMAN RELATIONS COMMIMTTEE: Dr. Bruning came before the board to discuss the formation of a Human Relations Committee in Iredel! County, which would eliminate the need of the Equal Employment Oportunity Commission (EEOC) in Charlotte. He cited New Hanover County as having the ideal arrangement with a Human Relations Committee, and thinks it is better because it is more accessible to the public than going to Charlotte. They can give solutions to problems in a shorter length of time; they can give assistance; they conduct workshops, etc., for clubs and schools, he said. Dr. Bruning said this helps industries and businesses by settling claims in a faster manner, requires far less information, no lawyers required unless it goes to court, goal is not adversarial --it is negotiating. He said most important, it protects against frivolous charges. Ms. Betty Pickett was present from the State Council of Human Relations and spoke about the need for a Human Relations Committee. She said North Carolina is 1 of 5 states that has no fair employment law. The others are Alabama, Mississippi, Louisana, and Arkansas. Mr. Skip McCall was present from J. C. Penney Distributing Company, Inc. Mr. McCall said J. C. Penney supports the Human Relations Commission. Dr. Bruning reauested the County send two employees to Wilmington to get in touch with the Human Relations Commission and meet with people in the Wilmington area who use the commission. Sixteen counties now have Human Relations Committees. Dr. Bruning is proposing a budget of $100,000 for an Iredell County commission. Mr. Jerry Burgdoffer, president of the Iredell County Personnel Managers Organization, was present. He was scheduled on the agenda to address the Human Relations matter, but said he would not make any comments at this time.

Pope, County Attorney, advised the board that the staff had called to his attention they had received requests for building permits in areas of the county which are not presently zoned. The building permit requests are for structures that are out of compliance with the land use study and will be out of compliance with the proposed zoning of the area under the countywide zoning plan. In order to eliminate this happening further, it is being recommended by the county attorney that a 60-day moratorium be placed on building permit issuance in those areas which are not now presently zoned, since there may be other requests coming to the planning department pretty quickly.

MOTION Commissioner Hedrick that the board adopt an ordinance that would restrict any building permits being issued in all areas not currently zoned if the building permit calls for uses of the land other than stated in the land use plan.

Presentations from others will be heard at a later date. The chairman thanked the two school boards for the many hours of time they spent in preparing the merger plan. Mr. Jerry Ball, chairman of the Iredell County School Board, made opening remarks, followed by Mr. Jim Ashburn, Statesville City Schools chairman's opening remarks. Mr. Wayne Miller gave an overview of the school merger plan. A question was raised about the resolution of intent prepared for the county commissioners adoption. The intent calls for raising the per pupil expenditure of current expense to the state average by the year 1992. Commissioner Hedrick inquired whose state average would be used. The school officials replied it would be the N. C. Department of Public Instruction, Statistical Profile per pupil average. Dr. Williams said the County is now close to $70 to $80 of State average. Dr. Williams answered questions the county commissioners had in reference to the plan. A question was raised about the special education classes. Or. Miller said they planned to use Troutman Middle School facilities as a center for handicapped and special education. Commissioner Murdock inquired about maps showing the school districts, and asked if the East Elementary Middle School would be built if there is no consolidation, to which Dr. Williams replied it would be built. Commissioner Murdock inquired about the students who live in the Buffalo Shoals area, where they would attend, and also about the criteria for the new superintendent. She asked how the new superintendent would be chosen. Mr. Ashburn replied it would be a matter for the 13-member board to address. Commissioner Murdock inquired about boundary line changes.

Dr. Williams replied the paired education concept is strongly supported by the BEP. Dr. Miller addressed the second language to be taught in this section. Commissioner Bryan inquired how long did the school officials think the middle school concept will last, to which Dr. Williams replied he thought it would be a long time. Commissioner Hedrick inquired about transferring students from one school to another. Dr. Williams said both boards of education are sensitive to the needs of children based on individual situations. He referred to HB 1369 which deals with what is in the best interest of the child. Commissioner Bryan inquired if Mr. Jay Huskins' plan of merger was considered.

Commissioner Murdock inquired about a Mrs. Williams who met with Dr. Williams about some Changes in the boundary line at East Monbo community. Commissioner Hedrick inquired about the obligation of the funding on the next board of county commissioners. County Attorney Bill Pope said he talked with David Lawrence at the Institute of Government, and it is his opinion it is a very fundamental concept of N. C. law that one governing board, except in very rare circumstances, cannot bind another governing board. He made some further statements and said there could not be a legal binding on a subsequent board, but there might be a moral binding. In further conversation, he stated the educational part of the plan was the responsibili- ty of the school boards; the financial part of the plan is the county commissioners' responsibility. 249 1216 Commissioner Hedrick discussed the part of the plan dealing with no member of the school board could serve more than two consecutive terms. Mr. Ashburn said the City board can only serve two terms now. This came into existence when the City went to district representation. Commissioner Murdock inquired about the lack of provision for a vice chairman. Dr. Williams said that would be the decision of the board at that time. Commissioner Murdock inquired about the procedures if a vacancy on the board occurs in the middle of a term. Would the remaining board members make an appointment from that district? Who would make the recommendation to the board? People in the district? Other members of the board? Dr. Miller referred to a rule, GS 115-37. Chairman Sloan inquired about the busing issue. Mr. Ivey responded to his question. Commissioner Hedrick made further inquiries about obligation of funding in connection with capital projects. Mr. Ashburn said they would delay construction until they had the money to construct. Further discussion took place regarding the merger plan. Upon completion of the study, Chair- man Sloan recognized the new county commissioner, Mr. Chandler Bryan, who was in attendance for his first meeting.

Mr. John Robinson, chairman of the National Balloon Rally Charities, spoke for the group, advising they had been informed by the S.B.I. that three full-time officers were needed in the Iredell County Schools and Statesville City Schools for the D.A.R.E. program. The S.B.I. feels the education program is extremely important for the fifth and sixth graders. Drug abuse, alcoholic abuse and adolescent pregnancy are the three subjects that would be addressed.

Provided a profit is made from the National Balloon Rally, they are prepared to offer the monetary assistance for a three-year period. i Mr. Robinson stated there was a drug officer in 90 of the 120 school districts in North Carolina. Mr. Robinson said they would like to see the officers in place by September 1990. Plans are to pay the officers out of the sheriff's budget. They thought $25,000 should cover the cost of one officer. The commissioners discussed the proposal and thought the school boards should be involved in the request, since it would be viewed as a part of the curriculum. The matter was tabled until inquires were made of the school systems.

The cost of the line extension is estimated to be $147,375, according to Mr. White and his engineer. Mr. White advised the board the school system could erect a tank on the school site and develop a well at a cost $100,000 more than the cost of the water line extension would be, which is $250,000. Iredell Water Corporation has given its consent to put in the line, provided funds are available. Mr. White said it has been learned there are low interest loans available to finance the line; however, it will be necessary for the county commissioners to apply for the money rather than the school sytem. Commissioner Bryan questioned if the merger plan should be consulted to see if there are any plans for water and sewer in the planning for new buildings. In further discussing the low interest loan, the county manager said there is a $200,000 low interest loan available, but the loan would have to be made to the governmental agency. Commissioner Hedrick said he would like for staff to check into this further and let the board know something by the next meeting. I-CARE, INC., REQUEST FOR ENERGY CONSERVATION AND HOUSING REHABILITATION INCENTIVE PROGRAM: Mr. Paul Wilson, executive director of I-Care, Inc., and Mrs. Smith, staff member of I-Care, came before the board in reference to application of an Energy Conservation and Housing Rehabilitation - Incentive Program.

I-Care proposes to completely rehabilitate 27 houses which computes to $202,500. No dollar match is required. In discussing this with the board, Mr. Wilson says they already know of clients who would be eligible for this service. There are certain guidelines that must be followed, which are: (1) A person cannot sell the house’ for five years after the rehabilitation of the property has taken place. (2) A realtor whose property is rehabilitated for the low income family cannot increase the rent for seven years.

I-Care hopes to get $120,000 for first year funding. Mr. Bill Mashburn, Health Director, was present to discuss the program also, since the health department has an adolescent pregnancy program. Questions were raised about the possibility of overlapping service. Ms. Karen Smith said she and Ms. Becky Anderson, health nurse who handles the adolescent pregnancy program at the health department, havd discussed this and they had concluded that there would not be an overlapping service. Ms. Anderson coordinates with the schools; Ms. Smith would go into the schools if a client of hers that she met outside the school setting needs her assistance there. The program is for both young men and young women and is a preventive program. They--plan to work with and educate the parents as well as the children about sexuality. Their client socio- economic target is the low income family. , Projected staff is two counselors, one male and one female, and one program director. The board members inquired about qualifications of the staff. Transportation for the clients will be through UMPTA. The board inquired about a copy of the grant proposal; Mr. Wilson said he would get a copy to the county manager's office, which will be reviewed by Mr. Bill Mashburn, and subject to Mr. Bill Mashburn's approval, insofar as not being an overlapping service. After further conversation, MOTION was made by Commissioner Murdock to tentatively approve the writing of a letter to Mr. Paul Wilson at I-Care, approving their application for the grant, with the understanding that county staff will receive information from Mr. Wilson, and that Mrs. Smith and Mrs. Anderson will get together to make sure that the programs will not be a duplication, and that the program is agreeable with the health department.

Murdock Staff present: Joel Mashburn, County Manager William P. Pope, County Attorney Alice T. Fortner, Clerk to the Board SLOAN: We are reconvening the meeting that was recessed last Tuesday, April 3, 1990. It became apparent to me that there was somewhat of a consensus developing among the county commissioners over the last few days, and due to that, I have asked our county attorney, Mr. Bill Pope, to draft a resolution incorporating the ideas and thinking of all the county commissioners. At this time I would ask Mr. Pope to read the resolution. POPE: Mr. Chairman, I have prepared a resolution, and I apologize in advance that it is excessively long and excessively worded. I tried to incorporate the ideas that various commissioners had suggested to me. Whether I succeeded or not will be clear when you discuss this. sini If I could I will read the resolution that I prepared. WHEREAS, for at least twenty-five years the governing officials of Iredell County have reques- ted that in order to reduce current expense inequities and capital expenditure inefficiencies, the three school administrative units located within Iredell County consider consolidation and merger, and WHEREAS, the Boards of Education of the three school administrative units for various personal, political, social and cultural reasons have not been able to agree upon a plan of consolidation and merger; and WHEREAS, this Board of Commissioners has been acutely aware of the value to all individuals of a quality education and of the value to society at large of its citizens to be able to read, write and possess critical thinking skills; and WHEREAS, this Board of Commissioners has also been made aware of the economic potential of this county, its factories, farms and financial and service industries and its capacity to develop and expand with an educated work force; and WHEREAS, this Board and previous Boards have made repeated and strenuous efforts to encourage the school units in Iredell County to develop a plan to consolidate the schools including (a) the consideration of withholding of funding; (b) the setting aside of a pool of nearly one million dollars and offering to increase the pool yearly; (c) the offer to employ outside experts to study and assist in preparation of consolidation plans; (d) the encouragement of legislation to mandate consolidation; and (e) encouragement of merger through various other means; and WHEREAS, this Board and previous Boards have made great strides in raising the current expense funding for Iredell County school children with a view towards ultimately achieving the statewide average within a reasonable time after the schools are consolidated and have communicated those oat plans to the school administrators for the purpose of encouraging them to consider and develop a plan of consolidation and merger; and WHEREAS, this board appointed a VISIONS Task Force on Education and charged it to investigate educational facilities and opportunities in Iredell County, and indicated to the members of that group that we would to the extent possible, implement their recommendations, and WHEREAS, in response to repeated urging, encouragement, and solicitation by this board, the boards of the City of Statesville and Iredell County Administrative Units have developed a plan for consolidation and merger (the "Plan") for presentation to this board and to the State Board of Education, and WHEREAS, said VISIONS Task Force has studied the plan and has presented its findings to this board, including the strengths and weaknesses of the plan, and WHEREAS, we have been made aware of (a) the tremendous amount of work involved in developing the plan, (b) the political courage of the members of the school board in adopting a plan in the face of the extremely emotional confrontations, and (c) the fact that not all members of the public like all parts of the plan and many desire that the matter be put to a referendum of the people, and WHEREAS, our own investigation and study has led us to conclude, and we do find as a fact, that consolidation of the Iredell County and City of Statesville School Administrative units will result in a wiser and more efficient use of the financial resources of this county and will result in a vastly improved educational delivery system with equalized funding, and WHEREAS, we do deem it to be the prerogative of the elected representatives of the school systems to determine the educational portions of the plan, with our own collective judgment being provided on those portions to the plan having to do with the levying of the taxes upon our citizens and distribution of same, and WHEREAS, we are informed and believed that the plan presented to us requires the moral but not legal commitment from us and our successors in office, whose legal commitment we cannot give, that we will levy sufficient taxes using either the supplemental tax authorized by G.S. 115C-512, or the general ad valorem taxes, to aid gradually over a reasonable period of time to attempt to achieve statewide average for current expense within the merged district, and renovate, remodel, construct and improve the educational facilities in a manner sufficient to allow the middle school concept to be implemented in the merged district and otherwise provide necessary funds for implementation of merger, and WHEREAS, the plan presented to us calls for us to declare our intention to meet certain finan- cial objectives, but does not call for us to contract away our sovereign power to decide the rate at which our citizens will be taxed, and WHEREAS, we do now have the present intention, absent adverse economic conditions, changing demographics, educational changes or other unforeseen events, to construct the facilities now anticipated being needed, and to gradually achieve, as our perceived financial condition allows, increased current expense funding, and WHEREAS, this Board and previous Boards have made repeated and strenuous efforts to encourage the school units in Iredell County to develop a plan to consolidate the schools including (a) the consideration of withholding funding; (b) the setting aside of a pool of one million dollars and offering to increase the pool yearly; (c) the offer to employ outside experts to study and assist in preparation of consolidation plans; (d) the encouragement of legislation to mandate consolida- tion; and (e) encouragement of merger through various other means; and WHEREAS, this Board and previous Boards have made great strides in raising the current expense funding for Iredell County school children with a view towards ultimately achieving the statewide average within a reasonable time after the schools are consolidated and have communicated those plans to the school administrators for the purpose of encouraging them to consider and develop a plan of consolidation and merger; and WHEREAS, the Board appointed a VISIONS Task Force on Education and charged it to investigate educational facilities and opportunities in Iredel! County and indicated to the members of that group that we would to the extent possible implement their recommendations; and WHEREAS, in response to repeated urging, encouragement and solicitation by this Board, the Boards of the City of Statesville and Iredell County Administrative Units have developed a plan for consolidation and merger (the Plan") for presentation to this Board and to the State Board of Education; and WHEREAS, said VISIONS Task Force has studied the Plan and has presented its findings to this Board including the strengths and weaknesses of the Plan; and WHEREAS, we have been made aware of: (a) the tremendous amount of work involved in developing the Plan; (b) the political courage of the members of the school boards in adopting a Plan in the face of extremely emotional confronta- tions; and (c) the fact that not all members of the public like all parts of the Plan and that some desire that the matter be put to a referendum of the people; and WHEREAS, our own investigation and study has led us to conclude and we do find as a fact that consolidation of the Iredell County and City of Statesville School Administrative units will result in a wiser and more efficient use of the financial resources of this county and will result in a vastly improved educational delivery system with equalized funding; and WHEREAS, we do deem it to be the prerogative of the elected representatives of the school systems to determine the educational portions of the Plan with our own collective judgment being provided on those portions of the Plan having to do with the levying of taxes upon our ciitzens and distribution of same; and WHEREAS, we are informed and believe that the plan presented to us requires the moral (but not legal) commitment from us and our successors in office (whose legal commitment we cannot give) that we will levy sufficient taxes (using either the supplemental tax authorized by G.S. 115C-512 or the general and ad valorem taxes) to (a) gradually over a reasonable period of time attempt to achieve < statewide average for current expense funding within the merged districts and (b) renovate, remodel, construct and improve the educational facilities in a manner sufficient to allow the middle school concept to be implemented in the merged district and otherwise provide necessary funds for implemen- tation of merger; and WHEREAS, the Plan presented to us calls for us to declare our intention to meet certain finan- cial objectives but does not call for us to contract away our sovereign power to decide the rate at which our citizens will be taxed; and WHEREAS, we do now have the present intention, absent adverse economic conditions, changing demographics, educational changes or other unforeseen events, to construct the facilities now anti- cipated being needed and to gradually achieve as our perceived financial condition allows increased current expense funding; and WHEREAS, after much prayerful and careful consideration, we find that the Plan as presented is prepared and presented in the best interests of all the citizens of Iredell County although not perfectly satisfactory to all, and find that the school boards of Iredell County and Statesville have adequately responded to our charge to bring forth an acceptable Plan. NOW, THEREFORE, BE IT RESOLVED by the Iredel! County Board of Commissioners; (1) The City of Statesville and Iredell County School Administrative Units shall be merged in the manner contemplated in the Plan heretofore presented to us. (2) We declare our present intention that we shall, as our circumstances allow, levy and disburse to the Administrative Board of the merged schoo! units sufficient funds to erect the needed facilities and to increase the current expense on a per pupil basis towards the statewide average; (3) We declare to our successors in office our Own moral commitment that the schools be adequately funded; (4) We declare to the public our commitment that our schools be held accountable for their performance and bind ourselves to developing an accountability system; (5) We direct that the Clerk to this Board forward the Plan to the North Carolina State Board of Education and encourage its immediate adoption; (6) We urge the Board of the Mooresville Graded School District to consider consolidating into the merged district and encourage continued dialogue to the end that this county be unified in all respects and that duplicate and overlapping programs be minimized; (7) We encourage Mitchell Community College and the School Administrative Units to develop a partnership for the efficient delivery of educational services in Iredell County, particularly in the areas of vocational and technical training. SLOAN: Do we have a motion relative to this resolution? HEDRICK: Mr. Chairman, would questions about this be in order at this time or more appropriate after a motion is considered, if one, in fact, is made. SLOAN: I have no problem going ahead with the questions now. HEDRICK: The only clarification, Mr. Pope, on our second page where we are referring to G.S. 115C-512, if, in fact, the board were to adopt this resolution, my concern is that with respect to (b) discourse, where it says, “renovate, remodel, construct, and improve the educational facilities in a manner sufficient to allow the middle school concept." Have we prefaced that in our WHEREASES that we would do that as to the extent of our ability to fund, or is that an unqualified statement that we will, irrespective of whether or not we feel like we are able to? POPE: Mr. Hedrick, what I have attempted to do by the resolution is to explain what I believe the law is. I believe that it is the law of this state that you cannot contract away your authority to levy taxes. And I believe it is that law that you cannot bind your successors, SO I may not have succeeded; it may be too wordy and too ambiguous. But what I have attempted to convey is simply what the law is, and that is the plan calls for you to appropriate certain funds. What you are saying by the resolution is that to the extent we can, all things being equal, we intend to do that. But we do not, and we want you to know do not, have the legal ability to tell you that regardless of the circumstances we will do that. And I would say further that even if that were not the law, which I believe it is. And I have had it confirmed to me by the Institute of Government. I believe that would be wise. I think my understanding, and the plan attempts to make this point, that the educational portions of the plan are the business of the school board, and the financial portions of the plan are your business. And the law, as it pertains to the finances, is, I hope, woven into the resolution. Did I answer your question? HEDRICK: Yes, sir. We at least have etched into the minutes that our intent is to do as good as we can. "We" being any board of commissioners subsequent to us, to the extent of the ability of the county, and I think the minutes will accurately reflect that. SLOAN: Other questions? Clarifications? BRYAN: I have a question, Mr. Chairman, of Mr. Pope or the rest of the members of the board, however it might best be answered. I have viewed the problem that we are having in the county 4s, I won't say a misunderstanding of what we are doing, but certainly some of that might be involved. The plan, as we speak of it, to me is not engraved or chiseled into granite. The demographics and political realities in this county change at such a rapid pace that obviously no plan can be set forth for an eight-year period with any success of ending up being the same at the end of eight years as it is contemplated at the first year. So I see the plan as a living, breathing plan that would be subject to change to reflect those political realities and demographics that will occur in this county. I also don't think, and of course I'm not trying to read anything into it, I really don't even think it would be healthy to come up with a plan that we say, "This is it, and that is exactly how it is going to be” for the period of eight years, come whatever might happen. So I sort of view this, I don't sort of view it, I view it as a framework that we are starting out with. I have been pre Aes 9 1260 involved in politics in this county, I guess, for over twenty-five years, and by politics I don't mean Democrat or Republican, I mean in trying to help shape and form and have some part in where this county is going, and I cannot remember a single board of commissioners did not in some way, shape, or form, ask for consolidation of school districts. Not because of the educational advan- tages. I really have no way to speak to that, and I don't believe any commissioner does. Our expertise should be in the realm of economics, tax levies, and what's best for the county as a whole. And that's the only decision I see that we can make. If there are fallacies in the plan, it certainly will show up at a fairly early date. And at that point it would behoove the board of education to take such steps as necessary to make the plan work. I do believe, and I am sincerely convinced, that it is in the best interest of the taxpayer to build school buildings where they should be built instead of where the boundary lines happen to be. So I just wanted to make the way, my position and the way I'm reading the resolution, that it is a living, breathing document, and it is subject to change. And where we speak to accountability I would like to see at some point during the year that the school board report to the board of commissioners on a yearly basis and give a public report of how the plan is doing, what the problems are, what the justification is, and whether or not the school building that's in the plan that is supposed to be built in Year #4 of the plan is still needed, or whether or not a housing development has all of a sudden sprung up with 500 new homes in a different part of the county, and the building has to be changed, or the location has to be changed. And I think that as good stewards of the tax funds for the county, it really should be our business to make sure that is done. So I would suggest as one form of developing accountability, not necessarily just for the school board, but for the county as a whole, and to let the citizens know what is happening, that somehow that be made a part and parcel of what we are doing. That is, a report be made so that it can be made public to the citizens. SLOAN: Thank you. MURDOCK: Mr. Bryan, when would you suggest that that be made to the commissioners? Say by June 1st? July 1st? Set a certain date for it? BRYAN: I certainly think it should be made before the budget is considered, before the schools come in to apply for the current and capital expense needs. MURDOCK: By January 1, possibly? BRYAN: Yes. Whatever date would suit the commissioners to fit within that framework. SLOAN: Further discussion? STEWART: Mr. Chairman, will we be given an opportunity to make a statement following the vote, or would you prefer we make any statements we have relevant to this vote prior to the vote? SLOAN: For my part, I don't really care. I would like to, before we get in real deep, I would like to get a motion on the floor. BRYAN: I MOVE THE RESOLUTION. SLOAN: Thank you, Mr. Bryan. Mrs. Stewart, if you want to go ahead, now is as good a time as any. STEWART: The merger resolution is, I think, quite eloquent in its wording and it addresses many areas which I support, such as better education, more equal funding and better facilities for all of our children. I have read this document, the resolution document, many times, and have also the merger plan, studied both of them carefully, debated them quite often, as you understand. Both the merger resolution and the merger plan have points in them that I can and do support wholeheartedly, but I want to state most emphatically the reason that I cannot vote for the resolu- tion adopting the plan for merger is the fact it does not call for a referendum or for a vote of the people, which I think is very necessary. SLOAN: Further comments? MURDOCK: Yes, I have one. I have heard quite a bit about, even many of the letters that I received, "Don't raise my taxes." And I see some of you shaking your head in agreement. Sometimes we get messages in mysterious ways. And I want it understood, I had made up my mind before I left my house to come up here. But as I started out my drive, some senior citizens drove in. And they said, "Go vote for it, we don't mind paying the taxes." HEDRICK: I guess I don't necessarily look at it as any different taxation, merged or not merged. Within the confines of this county boundary, we have, ever how many school children we have in there, they are our school children. We educate them; we don't educate them. The other existing school systems add supplements to them as they see fit and necessary, and if the merger, in fact, takes place, as I see it, the question becomes, will there be any additional funds to raise the county's funding portion up to the city's, or will, in fact, the city's funding, by virtue being merged into a larger mass of children, perhaps, be reduced somewhat. I think the latter is more appropriate. I don't think it will be reduced down to the level that the county presently funds only the county school student, but I don't think it's going to result in necessarily the amount of money being raised on the county student to be equal to the city student. And I don't believe that there are many capital expenditures in this plan that would be unlikely to reach us if we didn't merge. That is to say, I think still the schools probably need remodeling, renovating. I think probably we need to air condition the buildings that are going to be air conditioned in the plan. So it comes back down, as Mr. Bryan pointed out, to what is the commissioners’ role in assessing the plan as presented to us. And I think it deals with the financing of the plan, and not much past that. I think you eloquently hit it on the head when you stated that the boards of education need to address the needs of the education, and I think that the voters, if this plan is approved as the resolution is presented, I think they do, in fact, still have a very good and clear opportunity to have a referendum. And that of course being the election of the new school board as it would be voted on by the districts. And of course they would be the ones that would carry out the implemen- tation of the plan, however it exists. My fear is not that the plan would fail in a referendum, but my fear would be that the informa- tion and the issues brought about as a result of a referendum would not, indeed, be factual and relative to a positive approach to dealing with the issues. I said I wasn't going to use it, but I am going to use it, if you don't mind, the analogy I used in private to the chairman. And that is the first referendum that I know of failed on account of misinformation. And I would hate like whiz to throw the baby out with the bath water, so to speak, and have this merger issue, and that's what it is, it's a merger issue, it's not an issue about where a boundary line is going to be put, because boundary lines are always going to be changed due to demographics and change in population, as we develop. South Iredell is certainly developing much more rapidly than Iredell County, and therefore, there's all sorts of needs down in South Iredell that are perhaps accelerated over North Iredell. So those types of things you are going to have to look at on a year-to-year basis, and we certainly don't want to build schools that we are closing down before their usefulness is past. The referendum that I was talking about was probably 1925 years ago, when Pilate asked the people, “Who do you want to crucify?" Now they made the wrong decision, but they didn't have any choice in the matter, perhaps, because it was predestination. And I am not trying to be sacrilegious or say that this plan is as important as the life of Christ, because I certainly don't imply that. But the point is I think that we as responsible adults need to address the merger plan and be concerned with the education of our children, as opposed to, and I'm a parent. My child goes to Montessori School, by the way. But she was in the public school system, as my son graduated there. My wife and I both did. But I think we can get a better deal for our children with the merger, and that's why I'll vote for it, subject to the conditions in the resolution. SLOAN: Well, I've probably got a little longer statement. I have debated whether to make a long statement, and I felt like it is probably the only time I'll ever be able to speak to this without, when I can say what I want to say. So with the board's indulgence. I've received several calls questioning why we are meeting today at this time. There are several reasons. We wanted some time after the presentations Tuesday night to consider the com- ments. Some of us were not ready to vote Tuesday night. We have been asked the consider all input before we act. The real practical reason that we are meeting today is because it is the only time all of us could find to get together. This board has received public input and there's no further forum for additional public input scheduled. The only things left for us to do are to deliberate and act. At a public session, there is no hiding. I strongly suspect the results of today will be communicated throughout this county irrespective of the time we vote on it. I guess the worse thing we can do to upset a person is to do something that affects their family or has a negative impact on their pocketbook. This issue has the potential of doing both. We are considering voting on an issue which will affect a large percentage of the children in this county. Some will be affectived positively, some negatively. The goal of the proposal is to be in the overall best interest of all children. We are considering voting on an issue that will affect a large percentage of the taxpayers in this county. I could discuss and try to explain the pro's and con's of the proposed district lines, busing, curriculum, and many other issues, but I think both sides have pretty well made up their minds on all these issues, and I doubt what I would say would change anyone's position. I do expect that each of these issues will adapt to the dynamics of a changing and growing county. We could talk about the wars between the city and county over the years. The mistakes and personalities of past years should have absolutely nothing to do with the decisions of today. What I would like to talk about is what I view as my role as a county commis- sioner, and again, with the board's indulgence, what I view as the role of the citizens of this county. First my role as a county commissioner and relative to this merger. Two school boards have unanimously agreed, that is, all thirteen voting members, on eight of the nine points included in this plan. That is the school boards unanimously agreed to the attendance areas, pupil assignments, capital projects, and the governments. The only thing, the only thing these school boards did not unanimously agree upon was to call for a referendum. I'm sympathetic to those of you who are concerned about these issues. I have read considerable information about these issues, and I believe the school boards are addressing them. If there's been one shortcoming during the past fifteen months, it would be the lack of a forum to receive public input. I cannot agree that the actions of the school boards have not received widespead publicity. As a county commissioner, I am not in a position, nor should I be, to make these judgments regarding attendance areas, pupil assignments, curriculum. The school boards are far more familiar and qualified to address those concerns. I do have the significant responsibility to consider, when talking about funding levels, this county can support. And assure we receive our money's worth by requiring the school boards are held accountable. I believe the proposed resolution does this. The question of a referendum has been raised by many individuals. I have tried from the announcement almost fifteen months ago to be as openminded as I know how to be. I have attempted to read all the information I could find relative to the subject of consolidation. I have read every letter that I received that was signed. This represents the input of 282 people, and if you are interested, 161 were consolidation supporters, and 121 were against. I really have no idea how many telephone calls I have received relative to this question, but it would be several hundred. The calls probably ran 3 or 4 to 1 against consolidation. I read through and counted the petitions last night, which were presented to us Tuesday night. Mr. Austin indicated there was approximately 10,000 signatures here, and I concur with his count. I counted about 250 signatures asking one of 1261 1262 the county commissioners to force one of the school board members to run in mid-term. There was an additional 350 signatures expressing outrage at the Chamber for their support of consolidation. There were approximately 1900, 1900, signatures opposing consolidation because it said, "Consolida- tion could lead to widespread busing of young children, and require a big increase in county taxes." Had I been presented that petition, I probably would have signed it. I think all of us are against widespread busing of young children and a big increase in county taxes, unless warranted. The remaining approximately 6,700 signatures were on a very straightforward petition requesting a vote on the subject of consolidation. I understand from a call from Mr. Austin this morning there may be even more signatures. I have no reason to suspect this would not be the case. I cannot contest the point that there are several thousand people in this county who wish to vote in this issue. When people have suggeted to me that they want to vote on consolidaton, I have been asking them how would they vote. I have yet to find one who said they would vote in favor, which should not be surprising. This makes sense. I then follow up with the question, Why? Of those I've talked to, fully one-third to one-half, cite fears not included in the plan. Things such as a 30¢ tax increase, or busing from one end of the county to the other, splitting families up when they weren't going to be split, and a lot of these calls came from the fringe areas that are not affected by the pairing. The increase of the school size, when, in fact, 17 schools are actually going to decrease in size and 4 others increase less than 75 students, and further loss of discipline. All of these items are not included in the plan. If I had any idea this plan would be given a rational review I could and would support the call for a referedum. It has become evident that this will not happen. I'm fully convinced consolidation of the school systems in this county is in the best interest of all. Yes, some will never accept this. That has occurred in almost every consolidation in history. Unfortunately this is an emotional issue. I believe this is why the legislature provided for merger to occur in this manner. Other regions of this state have realized this. Only one of the past 14 mergers over the past twenty years has been by vote. How many of you would have voted for consolidation in the mid 60's? I'm convinced that's one of the best moves ever made for education in Iredell County. I did not go to a consolidated high school. There were 25 in my senior class. I went to college and had to compete with kids from large school systems. It was tough; it was unnecessary. How many of you would have voted to invade Panama? I don't know if I would have or not. How many of you would have voted for integration in the mid 60's? Unfortunately hard decisions must be made. Sometimes county commissioners must make hard decisions that are unpopular, but are, in the long term, in the best interest of all. Had this board responded to the outcry from the public over the location of the industrial park in south Iredell a few months ago, Iredell County would have missed the most significant industrial announcement in 1989 in North Carolina. Our duty required us to use our best judgment as to what was the best interest of the entire county. You elect individuals in our form of government to represent the best interest of all the people. This requires judgment and a willingness to make decisions that might not be popular. The day an elected official relies primarily on what might be popular for the basis of a decision is the day he has lost his effectiveness. The easy thing to do is go along with the public sentiment. It has been portrayed that a lack of referendum is an effort to call the citizens of this county ignorant. In my opinion, this has nothing to do with the question, and I would counter that those saying that are not in touch with the sensitivity of this question. This issue is emotional and this clouds the subjectivity of all. This is perhaps the toughest issue a county government can ever address. Once again, with the board's indulgence, | feel compelled to make a further comment regarding the role of all of us as citizens of this county. The letters, the phone calls, and the personal contacts have been appreciated by me, at least for the most part. I have received two phone calls at which I became a little short in patience, for which I apologize. I think one of those individuals is here today, and I do regret. I received comments from individuals who feel some have suffered intimidation because of their stand against consolidation. I have asked that anyone who personally felt intimidated to contact me. I have not received a response. Never should anyone feel retaliation because of a stand taken on any issue. I hope that never becomes a routine part of the American political process. I guess in speaking for myself as well as others, but threats, whether it be psychological, physical, or financial, are unacceptable, and I hope I never hear such again. We have elections periodically to settle how I represent you. I prayed for wisdom; I prayed for guidance; and I even prayed for the question never to get to me. After all is said and done, as a commissioner, I am bound to do what I feel is right and in the best interest of all the people. As a citizen, my children are in a paired area. Whether I'm on the prevailing side of this issue or not, I intend to support the school systems in this county in whatever form it takes. I ask that each of you consider doing the same. The only people you will hurt by not supporting the schools are yourself and your child. SLOAN: Are there further comments? If not all in favor of the motion to adopt this resolution, please say “Aye.” Ayes - 4 (Sloan, Hedrick, Bryan, Murdock ) Noes - 1 (Stewart) Let the record reflect a 4 - 1 vote. We had a couple of other items the county manager would like to discuss. Mr. County Manager. CORRECTIONS IN CONTRACT TO PURCHASE THE KEWAUNEE PROPERTY: The county manager apprised the board of some typographical corrections that need to be made in the contract to purchase the Kewau- nee property. Permission was asked of the board to allow the chairman to initial these corrections when the contract is executed. MOTION from Commissioner Murdock to permit the chairman to initial the changes in the document. VOTING: Ayes - 5; Nays - 0. INTER-DEPARTMENTAL TRANSFERRAL OF EQUIPMENT FROM RECREATION TO AGRICULTURAL EXTENSION SERVICE: The county manager requested the board's permission to transfer a pick-up truck with 93,476 mileage from the Recreation Department to the Agricultural Extension Department. At the request of Mr. Kenneth Vaughn the pick-up truck will be used at the fairgrounds. In answer to an inquiry from the county attorney, the pick-up truck is adequately covered with insurance. Vehicle #1GCDC14D7CS109592. MOTION from Commissioner Bryan to make the transfer of the pick-up truck from Recreation Department to Agricultural Extension Service. VOTING: Ayes - 5; Nays - 0. PROPOSED INCREASE IN FEES FOR DISPOSAL OF OLD TIRES: The county manager requested permission of the board to increase the fees for disposal of tires at the landfill. The present fee charge is twenty-five cents for automobile tires and fifty cents for truck tires. The company that is presently picking up the tires at the landfill (Tire Recovery, Inc., Contract #89-68, dated 11/21/89) is going out of business. There are other sources that can perform the same services; however, Mr. Mashburn said the cost of disposal was greater than the fee presently collected. Mr. Mashburn said based on State reimbursement, according to Senate Bill 111, the county would receive $37,800. Calculations have been made by staff that it would cost the county $92,000 to dispose of the tires; therefore, an additional $54,470 is needed to cover the total cost. In order to recover this cost Mr. Mashburn recommended the automobile tires disposal fee be changed from twenty-five cents to fifty cents and the truck tire disposal fee be changed from fifty cents to $1.50, which will give $54,500 on an annual basis. No action was taken on this matter. It will be considered at the April 17, 1990 meeting. CLARIFICATION OF A POINT OF RULES OF PROCEDURE OF THE GOVERNING BOARD: Mr. William P. Pope, County Attorney, stated a number of people had asked why there was no second to the motion on the Resolution in reference to School Merger. He said the Board's adopted Rules of Procedure that no second is needed on a motion. (IREDELL COUNTY BOARD OF COMMISSIONERS, Rules of Procedure, p. 5, XVIII. Second Not Required.)

APPOINTMENTS BEFORE THE BOARD IREDELL MEMORIAL HOSPITAL - REQUEST TO APPLY FOR LOW INTEREST LOAN TO PURCHASE A NEW CAT SCAN: Mr. Arnold Nunnery, Iredell Memorial Hospital Administrator, came before the board with a request for board approval of financing of a CAT Scan, to be paid from hospital revenues. He asked the board to approve a resolution and said the chairman and county manager would be required to execute a certificate on behalf of the board. The loan is from a low interest pool of funds, in conjunction with the Local Government Commis- sion. Because the County owns the land on which the hospital is located and other reasons, it is necessary for the county commissioners to give concurrence to the loan, County Attorney Pope said. Mr. Pope said he had reviewed the resolution to be adopted with the hospital attorney, Mr. Ligon, from Winston-Salem. The main point is that it does not pledge the County's taxing authority nor the faith and credit of Iredell County in any manner, he said. Chairman Hedrick said he would move to waive the reading of the resolution, to which the other board members concurred. Commissioner Bryan inquired how much of the income of the hospital is pledged in total for indebtedness, to which Mr. Nunnery replied there is about $16 million for the 1986 building. Three million additional dollars are pledged through two low interest loans, one for renovation of the maternity suite, and the other was used to finance the radiation therapy facility. The principal of the $16 million loan is being retired over a 30-year period, beginning in 1983. The other two low interest loans are seven years; the proposed loan for the CAT scan for seven years. This is not an insured transaction; however, the hospital has an AAA rating on the other bond issue, Mr. Nunnery said. The amount of the loan for the new CAT scan is $870,000, which covers site preparation as well as the new equipment. The old CAT scanner purchased in 1983 can be sold for approximately $60,000, Mr. Nunnery said. It has been completed depreciated at this time. Major improvement in the new scan is the resolution and a 3-dimensional picture. Technology changes so rapidly that this new one will need to be replaced in five to seven years, Mr. Nunnery said. MOTION from Chairman Hedrick to approve the following resolution in concurrence with Iredel] Memorial Hospital loan of $870,000, subject to the county attorney's approval of the documents. RESOLUTION APPROVING LOAN AGREEMENT BETWEEN IREDELL COUNTY, NORTH CAROLINA, AND THE NORTH CAROLINA MEDICAL CARE COMMISSION TO PROVIDE FUNDS TO FINANCE OR REFINANCE, OR REIMBURSE THE COSTS OF ACQUISITION OF, HEALTH CARE FACILITIES AND REIMBURSEMENT AND INDEMNITY AGREEMENT BETWEEN THE COUNTY AND MUNICIPAL BOND INSURANCE ASSOCIATION.

GRANT APPLICATION FOR GOVERNOR'S CRIME COMMISSION, TRI-COUNTY DRUG GRANT: Sheriff Clyde Lloyd presented the board with an application for a grant in the amount of $261,000 from the Governor's Crime Commission. The grant is called a multi-agency grant and covers Catawba, Alexander and Iredell Counties as well as the municipalities within those counties. There will be a tri-county drug task force, the sheriff said. The reason for the creation of the tri-county task force is because it is easier to get the State funds under this concept than under a single county applica- tion, the sheriff said. Budget for the first year is $171,281, which involves first-year purchase of some equipment, according to Sheriff Lloyd. The following is the amount each government entity would be required to fund: Iredell County $11,022.58 Statesville 3,674.00 Troutman 334.00 Mooresville 1,670.00 TOTAL $16,700.00 This is a 75/25 matching fund grant, with the counties paying the 25% for two years. Second year financing is $140,000, with a total funding of the counties of 25% of that amount also. Part of work of this task force will be working the interstates, the sheriff said. They plan to work the rest areas, stopping cars on the interstate that they think may be carrying drugs north and south on the interstate. There will be training of the officers, all covered under the grant. Funding for the grant, if awarded to the tri-county area, will not be until the 90-91 budget year. MOTION from Commissioner Murdock to let the Sheriff make the application from this Governor's Crime Commission Grant. VOTING: Ayes - 3; Nays - 0.

Mr. DeBruhl presented a copy of the project budget for Meadowbrook Subdivision Sewer. The budget totaled $140,000. Mr. Jerry Lundy, planning director and staff assigned to work on this project, said the assessments for the property owners for the cost of this project will be based upon the total cost. Final assessment will not be made until the project is completed and all the bids are in. Mr. Lundy is in contact with the property owners of Meadowbrook on an almost daily basis. 126'7 1268 RELEASES AND REFUNDS, MONTH OF MARCH 1990: Mrs. Lois Troutman, Tax Assessor, presented the ~ releases and refunds for the month of March.

He represents a group of citizens who are concerned with the traffic on Presbyterian Road resulting from the location of an asphalt plant belonging to Blythe Construction Company. Mr. Moore listed the following concerns of the people: 1. Safety 2. Quality of life 3. Devaluation of property 4. Loss of revenue in Iredell County These citizens were requesting that the moratorium placed on building inspections on March 6, 1990, which expires on May 6, 1990, be continued to disallow the Blythe people from getting a permanent location established on Presbyterian Road. Mr. Pope, county attorney, said he wrote the Blythe Industries and received telephone calls and a letter from them. The question has arisen as to whether Blythe Industries was established before March 6, 1990, when the moratorium was declared. Mr. Pope had requested information from Blythe in support of their statement that the plant was in existence before March 6th, and he is in the process of reviewing their information to make a determination on this matter.

The goals of these professionals are to provide the financial assistance needed for people to maintain an adequate standard of living; provide for the protection of children, older adults and the disabled; provide opportunities for personal self-support; and operate social services programs efficiently. They are not only striving to make people's lives better, they are also playing a major role in making the system of services better. NOW, THEREFORE, the Iredell County Board of Commissioners joins JAMES G.

Mr. Darrell Hinnant, State Director, conducted the first part of the program. He said the plan 4 was created in the last session of the General Assembly. North Carolina was asked to play a part and offer certain components and then the State would be able to use certain components in other states. Three sets of criteria were developed for designating a site. Each set of criteria addressed certain issues pertaining to the site selection. He used as an example the flood plain area. Mr. Tom Tribble, PEI Associates, gave a presentation using the maps to show how the various areas of the state were excluded from the selection process. After this presentation, Chairman Sloan inquired why not locate the site in a less populated area in the state. Commissioner Hedrick inquired if this would be a consideration before the final decision is made. The State official replied the socio-economic impact must be considered before the decision is made. 1281 The State Officials said Henderson site has 1682 population or 62 per square mile. The Iredell County site has 5529 population or 89 per square mile. Another criteria was the requirement of of 35% clay required in the soil, which eliminates the sandy soils in eastern North Carolina. Rowan County Commissioner inquired about the dairy farms in Rowan County. It was questioned about the use of the 1980 census data. Commissioner Murdock inquired about the route to the SA 9 site, the school buses will be traveling those roads. She asked what consideration will be given. The question was also raised if the incinerator and landfill will both be at the same site. Chairman Sloan inquired what exit from the interstate would be used; the reply was the Cool Springs exit. A question was raised about this being a two-lane highway. The State officials said they discussed this at length with Department of Transportation. It would not be possible to four-lane the two-lane highway. Commissioner Hedrick inquired what the reason for excluding sites near the State Parkway. He also inquired what was the reason for excluding locations near prisons. State officials replied because of possible evacuations.

FURTHERMORE, the Hazardous Waste Commission should take notice that Iredell County, together with neighboring Rowan County will do everything within its power to prove that the criteria estab- lished by the commission for site selection is contrary to state law, is based on insufficient data, and the findings are not based on verifiable information. In addition, the Board calls on its citizens to use restraint and reason in expressing opposi- tion to the locating of the proposed facility in Iredell] County/Rowan County. All efforts should be lawful and supportable by factual information. We will use every lawful means to fight this menace and we need the cooperation of all our citizens, but let's not engage in counterproductive or illegal activities.

S. Highway 21, north of Statesville. KEWAUNEE FINANCING HEARING: Ms. O'Connor explained GS153A-165, which would consider the value of the property purchased as the only collateral. The County's taxing authority is not pledged as security for transactions of this nature, she said. The financing agreement will later have to be approved by the board. No member of the public spoke for or against the matter. Commissioner Hedrick inquired if an appraisal of the site would be necessary, to which Ms. O'Connor said they may require an MAI appraisal. The tax value is more than the purchase price at this time, Ms. O'Connor said. The County Attorney, Mr. Bill Pope, addressed the financing plan. He said there are two statutes under which financing could be done. The other one, GS 168-20, has been challenged by Wayne County. A law suit is presently on appeal on this statue, and because the appeal is not over, the bond counsel of New York will not give a "clean opinion", which necessitates Iredell County to use the 153A-165 statute. Under the 153A statute, the title of the property will be held by whomever does the financing, probably First Union, Mr. Pope said. No one else spoke for or against the financing.

REPORT ON KEWAUNEE BUILDING STUDY - J. N. PEASE, ARCHITECTS: Mr. John Hill, representative from Pease Company, presented the findings from the firm's study on the structural analysis of this particular building. Mr. Hill reported an estimated cost of $8.85 per square foot for the structural aspect, with a total square footage of 260,000. This would include the mechanical and electrical work and the footings and steel columns for the increased stress load of the building. In addition the Pease Company estimates an additional cost of $35 to $50 per square foot for upfitting the entire building. This would be for be 72,000 sq. ft. of useable space. No furniture is included. The total cost of the entire renovation is $3,310,000 for the entire 72,000 sq.ft., which is upfitting the entire building and includes mechanical, electrical, and structural iworky: After further discussion it was decided to examine the options, including looking at the possibility of not putting in the second floor.

PRESENTATION OF PLANS FOR JAIL AND LAW ENFORCEMENT CENTER RENOVATION: Mr. John Duncan and his associate presented the plans for the captioned project. They reviewed the plan changes since the last presentation. These changes brought about a decrease in the overall estimated price from $8.6 million to $8.2 million. This price included $745,000 in Contingency. During the course of the presentation, Mr. Duncan said they hoped to have the price down below $8 million prior to letting the bids.

Mr. Franklin was proposing that the board go with the water and sewer districts as proposed by the study. Mr, Mashburn, county manager, said the idea was to establish the legal mechanism. Mr. Pope said this type of water and sewer districts can be established without a vote of the people. The governing board has the authority to levy a tax within the district and issue certain types of bonds after a vote of the people within the district. After more discussion, the board decided to postpone further discussion of this until a pre- agenda session on June 4, 1990. More information will be provided the board.

COMMISSIONERS’ SECOND MEETING IN JULY CHANGED TO JULY 24: Mr. Mashburn suggested because of a conflict with the commissioners' attendance at the NACo Conference, rescheduling of the mid-July meeting would be necessary. The date was set for July 24, 1990, 7:30 p.m., Commissioners Meeting Room, Iredell County Government Center, Statesville, NC. LEGISLATIVE CONFERENCE IN RALEIGH ON JUNE 13, 1990: Mr. Mashburn announced this meeting. Three members of the board plan to go. PUBLIC HEARING ON BUDGET Chairman Sloan opened the meeting for the public hearing on the FY 1990-91 Budget. County Manager Mashburn read the following prepared statement: On May 15, 1990 I presented the Board of Commissioners a proposed budget representing an increase of only $683,214, or less than 2% over FY 89-90 budget. However, based on projected revenues, it was necessary to appropriate $1,770,718 in Fund Balance to balance the proposed budget, This will leave the County with less than 8% in unappropriated fund balance. Based on past experience, an 8% unappropriated fund balance may seem sufficient and may not create any major financial problems for us during the budget year. There is, however, a real danger that revenue could fall below estimates during the coming year and then the services provided by the County could be put in serious jeopardy. If the economy drops and taxes are off, if the General Assembly reduces its reimbursement to the County in Lieu of Inventory Taxes, as it is talking about doing, or if values should fall as a result of some catastrophic event, i.e. hurricane, tornadoes, closing of industries, or siting of a hazardous waste incinerator, or if expenses are above the projection because of some economic or natural catastrophic event, then we could be in serious trouble with the proposed budget. The proposed budget was presented as is because it was my sincere belief that the board of commissioners would not have been receptive to a budget recommending a tax increase. And indeed, one is not needed to fund the proposed budget. There are some things, however, that are not in the budget, and you should be aware of these: 1. Amount budgeted to Capital Reserve is lowered to $500,000. The debt service alone for the projects needed immediately will exceed $1.5 million. We need to either continue putting money into the Capital Reserve or we need to forget about building the facilities we so desperately need, and I'm not even talking about the needs of the schools. 2. There is no funding for water-sewer expansion to assist us in economic expansion. 3. There are 32 new positions requested, yet only 84 are being recommended. No new positions are being recommended for the health or social services departments; however, this may very well be false economy, especially in light of our infant mortality rate in Iredell County. 4. There is only a 2.25% across-the-board increase in salaries; however, if we continue to go at this rate in future years, our employees will continue to fall further and further behind the market for their classifications. I do not believe that all the above can be adequately addressed, even if the board considered a tax increase; however, I do feel the board should give more consideration to the appropriation from fund balance and use this only if absolutely necessary. Also, I think the board should rethink the lack of appropriation to the Captial Reserve. We started a commitment this past year and set aside $1,000,000. The need is just as great now as it was last July. Not that it will address all the needs; however, having received an adjustment on our Medicare funds for EMS, we can project another $300,000 in that line item. However, the other needs will go unmet unless the board is willing to take another look at its position on no tax increase for this coming year. The following people spoke during the public hearing. Anna Rice, Council on Aging Requested the board to grant their full request of $15,826. Lisa Kraft, Appropriate Punishment Options. Tri-County Mental Health Agency. Requesting a total amount from the three counties of $714,652. Dr. Larry Freeman, Counseling Center of Iredell Said thank you to the board. Bill Brown, Big Brothers/Big Sisters Said “thank you" for their allocation. 129'7 Chuck Saunders, newly elected school board member Spoke about school needs. Pam Simon, Fifth Street Shelter Spoke about Battered Women & Children's Shelter, which has a $250,000 budget. David Boone, make some general comments on the budget. PUBLIC HEARING CLOSED.

Pope, County Attorney Alice Fortner, Clerk to the Board Jerry Lundy, Planning Director Susan O'Connor, Interim Finance Officer CALL TO ORDER: By Chairman Sloan WORKSHOP ON PROPOSED COUNTYWIDE ZONING ORDINANCE: Mr. Jerry Lundy briefed the board on the proposed countywide zoning ordinance which is being recommended by the Iredell] County Planning Board for the county commissioners' adoption. Mr. Lundy gave a history of the proposed countywide zoning ordinance. The ordinance began with the Land Development Plan, developed by Centralina Council of Governments. They have had five public meetings over the county: Two were held in the Agricultural area, one arranged and another meeting became a public hearing, Mr. Lundy said. The others were held at Harmony, Central and Mooresville Town Hall. The board members discussed minor language changes in certain paragraphs, but essentially left the proposal as submitted. REVIEW OF THE GRIFFITH STUDY DONE AT HEALTH AND SOCIAL SERVICES DEPARTMENTS: A committee met on Monday, June 11, 1990, with staff members and members of the Griffith firm to discuss the studies performed by Griffith at health and social services departments. Mr. Bryan spoke regarding the study done at the health department; Mrs. Stewart spoke regarding the study at social services department. After their discussions, Commissioner Hedrick said he thought a letter should be written to the Griffith firm registering the county commissioners’ complaint about Griffith's inade- quate studies. The board discussed new position requests in the budget. Following discussion, Commissioner Bryan made a motion to approve the budget from health department with the new positions as submit- ted. No vote was taken on the motion; however, a consensus was reached by the board members. Commissioner Stewart recommended three of the four positions requested by social services director in his budget request. The board reviewed certain sections of the budget where they had questions. One question was raised about radios requested by animal control. Mr. Hedrick recommended the county staff to check into the sale of furniture at Furniture House of NC, which could result in a large saving to the county. The board reviewed some of the former adjustments they had made, such as Mitchell College funding, increased COG funding, increased Mooresville Chamber fundina, and increased legal fees. Following the review, Commissioner Bryan reviewed a three-year plan he had prepared, which addressed the capital project needs and tax rates during the three-year period. After considerable discussion, some of the board members thought they would like to have more time to review the material and the budget. The meeting was therefore adjourned until Monday, June 18, 1990, 4:00 p.m., South Wing Conference Room, Iredell County Government Center, Statesville. / ls : Pd ) of her faereDrad Clerk to the Board Approved: 7/24/90 IREDELL COUNTY BOARD OF COMMISSIONERS MINUTES JUNE 18, 1990 The Iredell County Board of Commissioners met in Adjourned Regular Session for budget session on Monday afternoon, June 18, 1990, at 4:00 p.m., in the Commissioners' Conference Room of the Iredell County Government Center.

C. Hazardous Waste Management Commission to change the location of the public hearing on the matter of the hazardous waste incine- rator and landfill siting in Iredell County. This meeting was previously scheduled for Mac Gray Auditorium, Statesville Senior High School, on July 26, 1990. The North Carolina Hazardous Waste Commission changed the meeting place for the public hearing to the National Guard Armory Building on Hartness Road in Statesville. Chairman Sloan said in his opinion this action is a deliberate attempt to deny the citizens of Iredell County an effective forum to voice their concerns about this vital matter. Locating this meeting in a facility that is inaccessible, will seat only a small percentage of those who are expected to attend, and is not air-conditioned, projects a lack of hospitality and sends a very negative message. The message we are getting is "we really don't care what your opinion is." The board of commissioners should go on record opposing this relocation and call on the N. ¢. Hazardous Waste Commission to rescind its action and to move the public hearing on the matter of the site of the hazardous waste facility back to Statesville High School, Mac Gray Auditorium. "I would appreciate this board going on record on this position and to direct a letter to be written to the commission to this effect," he said. MOTION from Commissioner Murdock for Chairman Sloan to write a letter stating the board's displeasure of the relocating of this public hearing to the National Guard Building and recommending that it be held at Mac Gray Auditorium, Statesville Senior High School, VOTING: Ayes - 4; Nays - 0.

IREDELL COUNTY BOARD OF COMMISSIONERS Chairman oe VOTING: Ayes - 4; Nays - 0. (Commissioner Stewart entered the meeting at this point.) Chairman Sloan adjourned the meeting to public hearing. PUBLIC HEARING COUNTYWIDE ZONING: Mr. Jerry Lundy, planning director, discussed the proposed amendments to the zoning ordinance and showed the proposed maps on countywide zoning. He explained the zones being proposed for the county. Mr. Lundy said the plan comes with the recommendation of the Iredel] County Planning Board. After his discussion, board members asked questions of Mr. Lundy. Mrs. Murdock requested the year be changed on the mobile homes from 1976 to 1971, The chairman then opened the floor for public discussion. Those speaking were: (1) Frank Lawson, New Salem United Methodist Church Community. Urges the board to adopt. Had seven neighbors present who supported his position. (2) L. B "Buff" Grier. Mr. Grier was speaking on behalf of 40 square miles of mountain land and asked the board to reconsider northwest Iredell County and treat it as mountain land, not as subdivisions. He said he was against further zoning north of I-40. He thought mountain land deserved special consideration. (3) LeRoy Templeton. He asked the area north of South Yadkin River be excluded from zoning. (4) Paul Kearns, Oakdale Drive, Statesville. Supports countywide zoning. (5) Doug Madison. Opposes the ordinance as proposed and recommends a committee to review further. (6) Harry McPherson, Fox Creek. Supports zoning, especially R-20 in his area. (7) John Watts, Loray Community. Inquired about grandfathering of industries. He supports countywide zoning. (8) Hal Jolly. Did not speak. Presented petition containing names of persons opposed to zoning. (9) Chris Shoobridge. For rezoning. Wishes it were more restrictive. (10) Joann Dalton. Supports countywide zoning. Would like to see more R-20. (11) Lonnie Troutman. Has mixed feelings about the ordinance. Is concerned about the proprie- torship businesses located on 64, 70, 21, etc. Asked for more work on the plan. Mr. Lundy was asked by the chairman to address some of Mr. Troutman's concerns. Following the public speaking, the floor was opened for questions. Questions were raised about the mobile home park zoning restrictions. PUBLIC HEARING CLOSED. Discussion by board members: Commissioner Murdock asked that 80.1 be changed to September 1, 1971 (mobile homes), Commissioner Bryan inquired about set-back requirements on terrain that has a slope of 30 or 40%. He also asked for further information on the question of small Pproprietorships, ways to accommodate roadside developments rather than always having to be at intersections. Mr. Lundy said home occupation speaks to small rural Proprietors. It has to be on the property where he lives with a maximum of 3500 square feet. It can be beside or behind the residence. Commissioner Hedrick made comments about the countywide zoning. He said it was recommended by the VISIONS committee on Quality of Life and by the Iredel] County Planning Board. The planning board held several meetings for the public to speak. Evidence of danger of not zoning is seen by the proposed location of the hazardous waste incincerator and landfill site and the potential businesses that could come in as a result of this undesirable project if it does locate in the county, he said. He mentioned the need of adequate water and sewer where development occurs, something that requires planning rather than reaction to a Situation. The countywide zoning plan has not developed without a great deal of thought, he said. MOTION from Commissioner Byran to adopt the countywide plan. 1302 Commissioner Hedrick asked if the motion includes the change of the date requested by Commis- sioner Murdock and the concerns addressed by the setbacks on the mountainous territory. Commissioner Bryan said he thought as a part of the record there will be a study made of the setbacks for the mountainous territory and changing the date on Section 80.1 to September 1, 1971. Mr. Pope, County Attorney, recommended the commissioners adopt the three items of the county- wide planning in separate motions. MOTION from Commissioner Bryan to adopt the amendments to the zoning ordinance. Chairman Sloan made comments he wished to be a part of the record. He said when considering the issue of zoning, several questions have come to mind. One he has heard the most is, "Is this the right time?" Honestly, I have to say I've asked myself that same question. I think some would have you believe that this was sprung on the county at this time in order to adopt it without attention from the public. For those who believe that, I doubt there's much I can do to change that thinking, but for those who are asking that as a legitimate question, I would like for you to consider the following. As Mr. Hedrick said, this is not a new issue. I've gone back through the (newspaper) clippings in our office, and I find articles dating back to August 1988. I'm told the process predates this by at least one or two years. The land use plan was one of the first steps of the process, adopted sometime prior to 1988. There have been several things that have come up during the last few months that have prodded us into this. As someone mentioned there is a moratorium. That was not put on lightly: there were a number of reasons that moved us in that direction. Someone mentioned SA9. I would point out to you had a corporation such as THERMALkem come into this county and said nothing to no one and purchased 350 acres of land, there is very little we probably could have done about it. As bad as it may seem, we are fortunate the State's involved in this because they have set forth some steps that we do have some input. So I would point out to you that this moratorium was placed in effect in March, which was well before any announcement having to do with an incinerator, and I can assure you we did not anticipate that announcement. I don't have a problem with the timing. I think this is part of the process that has been ongoing for some time. I think the next question that has been raised tonight and we have discussed it here without our commission is, “Is there a need for zoning, and if so, how much?" I don't think I found anyone, and I listened tonight, and I stil] don't believe I've heard it, that doesn't believe there is 4a need for some zoning. So I don't think there is a question as to whether there is a need Tor. 1¢, it's a question of how far we go. We have discussed this on a partial basis, but Mr. Hedrick brought out something I would like to read to you. It's from the VISIONS Strategic Planning, which was presented in 1988 to the county commissioners. One of our goals, several of you people sitting in here were involved in that process, so I think you can relate to where I'm coming from. One of the strategies developed by that commission was to protect our agricultural base. The strategy to do that was to adopt a countywide zoning ordinance. Let me give you their thinking. "The task force feels that the board of commissioners should enact a countywide zoning ordinance by 1989. Aside from the zoning along interstate highways, only areas in central and southern Iredell County are zoned, There is virtually no zoning in northern Iredell] County and other primary agricultural areas in this county. In order to limit the encroachment of residential development into these areas, it is felt that zoning on a countywide basis should be implemented. As North Carolina law states that a county zoning ordinance cannot have jurisdiction over bonafide farm operation, the task force feels that such a move would not have a negative impact on local farm community, rather it is felt that positive benefits would be realized as development pressures the more rural portions of the county to be mitigated through zoning." I guess one point I would raise that there is a lot of concern about the farming area, the thinking by more than us has been that zoning is one way to help our agricultural areas. I have also heard the comment, “if it ain't broke, don't fix it." Well the idea is not to allow it to be “broke” in the first place. And in my opinion this is one approach to do that.

PURCHASE OF KEWAUNEE BUILDING LOCATED ON HIGHWAY 21 NORTH: Mr. Mashburn, county manager, advised everything was now in order for closing of the Kewaunee building project. Mr. Pope ex- plained the statutory scheme that is being used for the financing. The building would stand for the debt, and the contract of purchase between Iredell County and Kewaunee will be assigned to First Union National Bank. Iredell County will then enter into a lease-purchase agreement with First Union for a term of approximately ten years with an interest rate of approximately 7.25% per annum. The annual rent will amortize the original purchase price and the cost of all improvements. The faith and credit of the county will not be pledged, nor will the taxing authority of the county be pledged. The worse case scenario, Mr. Pope said, is if the county doesn't make the payments, First Union will keep the building. If payments are made, Pope said, at the end of the term the building will belong to Iredell County. Mr. Pope said the existing Industrial Revenue Bonds on the property will be retired. North Carolina National Bank owns the bonds and they have consented to release this property from all liens it may hold. MOTION from Commissioner Stewart to authorize the Chairman or Vice Chairman of the Iredell County Commissioners and the Clerk to the Board to execute such documents as are deemed necessary by legal counsel to close the transaction in the manner contemplated here tonight, using the Statutory 153-A-165 scheme, and further authorizing the assignment of the contract of purchase between Iredel] County and Kewaunee to First Union National Bank, the execution of a lease purchase agreement between First Unional National Bank as Lessor and Iredell County as Lessee and such other documents as might be deemed by legal counsel to be necessary to effect the closing. VOTING: Ayes - 5; Nays - 0. Mr. Pope said the signing had to take place by June 29, 1990. Mr. Bill Mashburn, director of the health department, expressed his appreciation to the board for the purchase of the building for the health department offices.

KIM BYRD TO ATTEND GYNECOLOGICAL /OBSTETRICAL NURSE PRACTITIONER TRAINING: Mr. Bill Mashburn requested approval for Ms. Kim Byrd, charge nurse for prenatal clinics, to attend school at Emory University in Atlanta. The reason for this request is because the health department is without any permanent clinician to provide services in family planning and prenatal clinics. Private physicians are providing services now, however, this is on a very limited basis. Due to the high infant mortality rate, the health director indicated that a nurse practitioner was very much needed. The program costs, as far as the county's obligation, have been budgeted in the FY 90-91 budget. The state will participate in the financing of this training. The tuition of $7500 has been waived and will be covered by the National Title X Family Planning Program. The Emory Program is a part of the Regional Family Planning Center at Atlanta. The state will reimburse the county $1,000 for the costs. Basically the county would continue Ms. Byrd's salary while she is in the program. She would be in Atlanta for approximately four months and then would come back to Iredell for several months to do a residency requirement. Next, Ms. Byrd would be examined in Atlanta. The health director further indicated that Iredell is one of two statewide service providers to apply and participate, and as mentioned before, Iredell is a priority county because of its high infant mortality rate. Vice Chairman Stewart asked about who would fill in for Ms. Byrd while she was away and would any services be curtailed. The health director advised that other nurses would be extended and no services would be curtailed. Commissioner Murdock inquired about what the county's obligation would be. The health director advised that that the salary would be continued, room and board, travel expenses and the license fee for the State of Georgia would be paid. The amount of $4,000 (which is budgeted in training) minus the $1,000 being reimbursed from the state is for the tuition. Commissioner Hedrick asked about the policy pertaining to Ms. Byrd's commitment to the county after the schooling had been completed and what was the customary procedure to be followed. The health department advised that two years was the required length of time Ms. Byrd is obligated to the county after school completion. The county attorney stated that a letter would be sufficient from Ms. Byrd stating that she would fulfill her obligation to the county for allowing her to participate in the program and a provision would need to be included indicating what Ms. Byrd would have to do should she not fulfill her obligation (payback) to the county. The health director advised that his department would devise the letter /agreement. MOTION from Commissioner Bryan to allow Ms. Byrd to attend the GYN/OB School. Health Department is requested to submit letter of commitment from Ms. Byrd. VOTING: Ayes - 4; Nays - 0. SATELLITE JAIL BIDS: Ms. Caldwell advised that these were the bids for minimum security satellite jail to be in the lower level of the enforcement division to house weekend prisoners.

J. Brown & Associates 71 eae Commissioner Murdock asked if this would complete the renovation work. The county manager responded that it would as far as we knew. It is basically just going in and doing additional plumbing and installing a new entrance for fire codes. MOTION from Commissioner Bryan to give the bid to F & F Builders at $59,547. VOTING: Ayes - 4; Nays - 0. KEWAUNEE BUILDING FINANCING DOCUMENTS: The county attorney briefed the group about the county negotiating an option to acquire a building presently occupied by Kewaunee Scientific Corporation on Highway 21 North. The matter was originally scheduled to close on June 29; however, due to several people being out of town they were unable to close. The scheduled closing is now set for July 19. It is unknown whether the county can meet this deadline. The county manager advised that Kewaunee has asked for a delay of occupancy by the County. They would like to continue to occupy the building a little longer. Our original agreement stated they could occupy until the end of October. Kewaunee still would like to close on July 19. The county attorney reminded the group that the method agreed upon to finance the building was a method known as the lease purchase arrangement. Under this arrangement a party is found to buy the property and then lease it to the county under terms such that when the lease is over the property is paid for and then deeded over to the County. This is a method permissible under the general Statutes. The county can walk away from the transaction at the end of any given year. It might be at any given month; however, the documents state at the end of a given year with no penalty and what the county would have paid up to that time would have been rent. Naturally, the longer a party stays in the lease the more they would not want to walk away. The documents specifically provide that the taxing authority and the faith and credit of the county are not pledged to secure the lease so there is no penalty for the county to enter the arrangement. The lease purchase agreement has been reviewed and there are a few minor, typographi- cal errors, but nothing that would alter its basic content. A schedule of payments has been given, which shows payments to the year 2000. The agency agreement is necessary because the building is not usable to the county in its present condition. The bank is entering into this agreement because the county will have to do $700,000-$800,000 worth of renovations to suit its purposes. The lease is a standard document. MOTION by Commissioner Bryan and seconded by Commissioner Hedrick to approve the following resolution for the purchase of the Kewaunee property: RESOLUTION APPROVING THE EXECUTION AND DELIVERY OF A LEASE/PURCHASE AGREEMENT AND AN AGENCY AGREEMENT WITH FIRST UNION NATIONAL BANK OF NORTH CAROLINA IN ORDER TO FINANCE THE ACQUISITION AND IMPROVEMENT OF THE KEWAUNEE PROPERTY FOR USE BY THE COUNTY DEPARTMENT OF HEALTH.

The following items were discussed under the manager's report: UNITED WAY AGENCY'S REQUEST FOR PROGRAM ENTITLED “CAROLINA GIVES": The county manager advised the group that the United Way Agency would like to make an appearance on July 24th requesting an endorsement of "Carolina Gives." CIVIL DISTURBANCE: Mr. Dickerson explained the necessity of adding a provision such as civil disturbance to the county's emergency plan. This plan is currently being updated. The emergency coordinator further explained that Annex 14 was simply an annex to the Iredell County Multi-Hazard Plan. The current plan we are operating under was approved by the board on November 1988 along with its ordinances and provisions at that time. Some items which he would like to add pertain to hurricanes, tornados, severe winter weather, civil disturbance, and mass casualty. All that is required for annexes is the approval of the county manager and the emergency management coordinator; however, Mr. Dickerson would like to get the Board's approval. The county attorney stated he had looked at the annex and examined the existing ordinance. The county attorney advised he did not have any problems with the annex and that the resolution did not require board action. Mr. Dickerson advised the complete report would be back for board approval. PRESERVATION OF FARM LANDS: The county attorney briefed the Board on the Preservation of Farmland Act and his recommendation that the Board consider this proposal, even though it wasn't as simple in reality as it is on paper. At this time it is unknown whether it has been adopted in any counties, but with the situation we are confronting now with an area of 700 to 800 acres of prime farmland being considered for acquisition by the state which would be permanently removed and destroyed as farmland, it is something the county should investigate. Our county agricultural agent has been written a letter about this, and he has probably already looked at the act. MOTION from Vice Chairman Stewart to appoint Ken Vaughn and Jerry Lundy (staff member) to research the issue and to report back with a recommendation to the Board by the next meeting. They may request such other persons to assist as they deem necessary to assist them. In the interim period it is requested that they confer with the county attorney. VOTING: Ayes - 4; Nays - 0.

Commissioner Bryan raised 4 question about the June 19th meeting regarding the land slope in the northern section of the county. Mr. Lundy replied he had received information from some of the mountainous counties and was making an amendment to the ordinance. Chairman Sloan inquired about the M-2 zoning and said perhaps this might be a good time to tighten up the restrictions. In discussing the tax releases, Commissioner Bryan moved that the board not forgive penalties. There was no vote on the motion, but it was placed on consent for voting on July 24th. Several other items of business were placed on the consent agenda. The county manager addressed smoking in the workplace.

The county manager reported on the hazardous waste siting and distributed a copy of user fees in North Carolina. An additional budget amendment was added to the agenda on the setting up of the Tri-County Drug Task Force as a separate department. This involves Catawba, Alexander and Iredell Counties' law enforcements. The grant lasts for two years, after which time it should be self-supporting from the fines and fees collected, which go directly to the administration of the program, in this instance. Two drug officers and one secretarial position are needed for Iredell! County. The board gave approval of the grant application, and the acceptance of the grant along with the budget amendment are now on the agenda for approval. Ms. Goodman spoke to the board about the lease for vehicles to be handled under G.S. 160A-20. A public hearing will be held on August 7th. The interest rate is very good, Ms. Goodman said. It will be 6.9%. The money can be advanced and escrowed until purchase is made. It can be escrowed for 8.25 to 8.4% until it is spent, she said. Inquiries were made about the junk car ordinance progress. Mr. Lundy replied they are still in the process of doing the ordinance.

REVIEW OF THE WORK OF THE AGING TASK FORCE: Miss Anna Rice, Council on Aging, Ms. Gayla Woody, Aging Specialist with Centralina Council of Governments, and some of the Council on Aging Committee members; namely, Teresa Tilley, Sue Walser, and Janet Blafuss. The Iredell County Board of Commissioners appointed the agencies on November 7, 1989 for this task force and charged them to review the county profile prepared by the North Carolina Division of Aging and priortize aging service needs for Iredell County. They have contacted many and various organizations in an attempt to assemble all the needed information. The top three service needs were identified as increased information and referral, increased chore services, and increased transportation. If the board approves these findings, the report is then to be mailed to the Area Agency on Aging, where they will review and send to the North Carolina Division of Aging, where it will be included in the statewide plan for aging services.

Miss Rice said they had applied for the Lowrance Hospital Funds for a Mooresville/South Iredell Senior Citizens Center. Miss Rice said the Aging Task Force is recommending and requesting that the board of commissioners appoint a permanent, on-going planning task force for aging services in Iredell] County. The group has identified areas that need attention in 1990, and it is important they look more carefully at the aging population and plan more carefully, especially in view of the limited resources. Commissioner Stewart raised a question about the number of beds in the nursing homes and the certificate of need process. MOTION from Commissioner Stewart to direct this group to stay in existence until December 1990 and also that the board approve the information presented in this report and authorize the chairman to sign the report so it can be forwarded to the proper agency.

MOTION from Commissioner Bryan to approve the Budget Amendment in the amount of $11,022. This amount is to come from Contingency Fund. VOTING: Ayes - 5; Nays - 0. REVIEW OF FIRST CITIZENS PROPOSAL TO PURCHASE ROLLING STOCK ON A LEASE/PURCHASE ARRANGEMENT: Ms. Susan Goodman reviewed this proposal with the board. Russ Sprehe and Bill Leach, First Citizens representatives, were present to describe the arrangement in detail. The proposal is to lease/purchase/finance 100% of the motor vehicles over a three-year period. This does not require Local Government Commission approval, but does require review of the documents by the County Attor- ney and approval of the Board for the contract of Lease/Purchase. Mr. Sprehe said the Local Govern- ment Commission has reviewed the documents and they meet with their approval, although they have not certified to that. The County will have full ownership of these vehicles at the expiration of the lease term. It is very similar to any other type of commercial loan, Mr. Sprehe said. Funds will be placed in escrow and the County will receive some arbitrage on the funds; however, they do not have to file any type of arbitrage agreement for this short period of time, Sprehe said. Mr. Sprehe said if the Board concurs, the funds would be placed in an escrow account in September, and as a piece of equipment comes in the funds would be withdrawn from the account at that time. By the time the first payment becomes due, all the funds would probably be expended for the equipment, Mr. Sprehe said. The County can keep the funds in an Escrow Account for approximate- ly six months without getting into an arbitrage situation, he said. MOTION from Commissioner Stewart to accept the proposal to enter into an Equipment Lease- Purchase and Security Agreement with First Citizens Bank upon counsel's review of the documents, for purchasing vehicles for the county.

The farmers raised questions regarding the act, but gave no definite indication on whether the County should proceed with the project or not.

The site review is July 30,1990, 10:00 a.m., Raleigh. FLYING FLAG UPSIDE DOWN: The RICCE Organization has requested the federal flag be flown upside down in a sign of distress. Mr. Mashburn recommended flying the N. C. flag upside down until the hazardous waste matter is settled, and recommended that the U. S. flag should not be flown upside down because of the implication of distress, especially applicable during war time. Mr. Mashburn mentioned flying a green banner below the flag. Mr. Bryan thought it would be more of an impact if everyone did the same thing. Commissioner Hedrick thought all should be in unison and legal. It was the consensus of the board that the North Carolina flag should be flown upside down and check with the City to be in unison on other banners.

DEPARTMENT OF LABOR CONTACTED ABOUT EMERGENCY MEDICAL SERVICES OVERTIME: Mr. Joel Mashburn requested that the board give him permission to contact Department of Labor to request an extension of time on the matter of the Emergency Medical ‘Services overtime payment. He explained that the County intends to comply totally with the rules and regulations, but there are some differences that should be reviewed insofar as interpretation. This should be resolved by the time the board meets on August 21st, Mr. Mashburn said. Mr. Mashburn said he was requested by the County Attorney to invite a member of the Department of Labor to the next board meeting. Commissioner Bryan said one of the problems DOL has had with the rules in this matter is the interpretation. They are interpreting the laws the way it is written rather than the intent of the law, he said. He believed that a bill introduced to help clarify this would be helpful. He suggested that this be taken up with the delegates in Asheville at the annual statewide convention of county commissioners this weekend. PACKAGE TREATMENT PLANTS: Commissioner Bryan said he had recently stated he was vehemently opposed to package treatment plants and would vote against any that were brought up for approval by the board. He said he has reconsidered his feelings on this matter and thought it would be better to have a county ordinance strong enough, enforceable enough, and with penalties enough, so that if the County says it is all right to have these things, then the County should have a right to regulate them. Obviously the State does not have the manpower to do the regulations, he said. The Health Department says it would take one to one and one-half persons to monitor these on a monthly basis. Mr. Bryan said someone is: going to have to take the:responsibility for regulating the package treatment plants. He especially mentioned the state of the schools' treatment plants and the need for monitoring.

REPORT ON REVALUATION: Mr. Brent Weisner and Mrs. Lois Troutman discussed the 1992 Revaluation with the Board. Mr. Weisner said they are using the old maps in the revaluation process, and hopefully the new ones will be ready by the next revaluation. They are planning to send out questionnaires to property owners to solicit information on sales, cost of construction, and income information. They are planning to do this over the next year for assistance in the appraisal information. They are-doing a much-needed edit to the property addresses currently located on the property cards. The addresses they have now are very old and haven't been updated in years, and this will be a-great help to them. They would like to do retrievals with property addresses in the future. The most important part of the project is the field review. There are 6170 actual accumulative reviews of parcels completed, a little ahead of their schedule. This is the actual process of doing the street review of the property and doing a comparison of the existing information on the property card and coming up with a tentative appraised value that will be constantly reviewed during the project with a final review late next year before notices are sent out. They now plan to send notices the first of December 1991, and see no reason they cannot keep that schedule and start the hearings in December. They have projected to have informal hearings for a period of approximately three months and then address the property owners complaints and hopefully have Equalization and Review sometime in June 1992. The percent complete is 21.99%, as on the end of July 1990. This is a weighted average of the percentages listed on each of the items in the process. The are working in Bethany and Concord Townships and Statesville Townships. They are about 50% through with their first pass at Statesville and Bethany and maybe 10% complete in Concord Township. The procedure they are using is not taking out the property cards and doing in-depth appraisals as they did in 1984, They are taking out reports that have the crucial information like land value, acreage, size of the lot, 2338S square footage of the house, what the house is made of, exterior walls of the house, quality of house, outbuildings, etc. Basically they are doing a "drive-by" review so they can see the property and make sure the current data are correct. The sales ratios are based upon 1989 sales and the 1990 sales that are in, according to Mrs. Troutman and Mr. Weisner. ‘ . The Chairman thanked the staff for the report. RELEASES AND REFUNDS - JULY 1990: Mrs. Troutman, tax assessor, presented the releases and refunds for the month of July 1990.

Maybe in the bookkeeping you might write it off; however, he thought some of the young attorneys ‘might like to work on collection at a 40% rate of the amount collected. Ms. Goodman said on the new program, after four months it will be taken out of the tax office. At that time they could work with attorneys for current bills over four months old. MOTION from Commissioner Bryan allow these assets to be removed from the assets of the county, but not forgive the debt, and to authorize the County to employ such attorneys and collection services as the manager deems appropriate for such fees up to 50%. This will allow these assets to be moved from the county's books, but will not forgive the debts. Following further discussion, the county manager requested the board allow this matter to be tabled and let staff pursue the collection process between now and the September first meeting. USING THE MASTERCARD AND VISA FOR AMBULANCE BILLS: MOTION from Commissioner Bryan to begin accepting Mastercard and Visa for payment of ambulance bills.

A proposed ordinance entitled Wastewater Disposal Systems was presented to the board by Mr. Jerry Lundy. Mr. Lundy said this is Draft #1. In conjunction with the health department, they have basically made major changes to apply to all package treatment facilities irrespective to the ownership. Municipalities will be excepted from the ordinance. It will cover all commercial and residential systems. It will cover septic systems such as the Heron- wood and the school systems. It will also include the state systems. There was some discussion of putting a fee system, but further checking showed that most of the agencies paying fees will be other governmental agencies, so a penalty basis will be used instead. The health department would be the enforcement agency. The planning department wil) issue the permits. Following further discussion, Mr. Lundy requested the board members to get their marked-up drafts back to him so he could try to have the second draft ready at the next meeting. RECLASSIFICATIONS - SHERIFF'S DEPARTMENT: Sheriff Lloyd came before the board to request the board reclassify some of this employees. He would like to change some of the positions from Grades 64 to Grade 67, who are both doing the same type of work. Mrs. Carolyn Harris, Personnel Director, was present to discuss this matter. She said Centra- lina looked at the pay plan and put investigators at Grade 67, which is basically ahead of the road and civil deputies. It was a decision by the sheriff's department that they would like to have investigators on the same level as the road and civil deputies. What has happened is that civil and road deputies no longer have incentive to go to an investigative position because they are on the same pay grade, yet the investigators do a more advanced type of work with their investigations. The request of the board is for permission to take five employees, including the Victim Assis- tance position, to Grade 67 as Investigator and change the title, which is Investigator/Sergeant to just Investigator. Mrs. Harris said there would probably be enough funds in lapsed salaries to take care of the increase in salaries. MOTION from Commissioner Bryan to move all the Investigator/Sergeant positions from Grade 64 to Grade 67 as Investigators, and to move the Victims Assistance Officer from Grade 66 to Grade 67, as requested by the Sheriff's Department.
