Those present for the meeting were: R. B. Sloan, Jr., Chairman Alice M. Stewart, Vice Chairman C. Chandler Bryan Frances L. Murdock Staff present: Joel Mashburn, County Manager William P.

VOTING: Ayes - 4; Nays - 0. HEALTH DEPARTMENT - REQUEST FOR FULL-TIME LABORATORY TECHNICIAN: Mr. Joel Mashburn updated the board on the request for a full-time position in the health department laboratory. He said after reviewing this matter with Mr. Bill Mashburn, health director, and Ms. Shirley Bullard, Health Department, he concurs with the request. New federal regulations went into effect after the budget was adopted last July. These new regulations require a higher level of service to be qualified. In addition they have not had success in recruiting someone for 60% time in this position. No additional funds are committed for this year's budget, and no additional funds are committed in the 90-91 budget, Mr. Joel Mashburn, county manager said. MOTION from Commissioner Bryan to approve the request for a full-time person in the laboratory. VOTING: Ayes - 4; Nays - 0. UPDATE ON SOUTH IREDELL TRANSFER STATION: The county manager, Mr. Joel Mashburn, brought the board up-to-date on the status of relocating the transfer station in South Iredell. Mr. Mashburn reported the inability to get the proposed transfer station site zoned properly. He offered an alternative plan of building a new transfer facility on the present site. This would first require completed engineering approvals. Municipal Engineering Company of Raleigh is able to perform this type of work. It is believed that this could be done; however, ground water might be a problem. But it is believed by Mr. Woodie, the engineer, that this could be handled. The property the county is presently considering for a new site was turned down for rezoning by the Mooresville Planning Board. According to Mr. Joel Mashburn, county manager, this matter is scheduled to come before the Mooresville Town Board on December 10th. Chairman Sloan said he thought perhaps the county should back away from the project at the present time, because of all the extenuating circumstances. Mr. Joel Mashburn said he thought it might be advisable to let the engineers gather some preliminary engineering data without doing indepth work. A couple of core drillings could be made to find out more about the ground water. This could help compare the alternatives with a better understanding. Commissioner Bryan said the new transfer station would cost roughly a million dollars, which is a lot of money just as a transfer station. He wondered if the board would be willing to do the same thing for Statesville, if it cost too much to truck the garbage to the landfill. He pointed out that the board has been looking for a site in the south end of the county for nine months and has not been successful, and this was all for the benefit of Mooresville. He felt they should be the ones addressing the problem rather than the county commissioners. He recommended that the county notify the Town of Mooresville they would no longer accept the Town's garbage after June 30, 1991. If the station breaks down during that time, it would be sooner. Commissioner Bryan thought this was ample notice to the Town. The transfer station would be used for individuals bringing garbage; and, because of this decrease in useage, the station should last a long time. After more conversation, Commissioner Bryan made a MOTION that the Chairman write a letter to the Town of Mooresville relative to the transfer station problem. VOTING: Ayes - 4; Nays - 0. SETBACKS ON MOUNTAINOUS TYPE TERRAIN IN NORTHERN IREDELL COUNTY: This matter has been researched by the planning department, and Mr. Jerry Lundy reported he had found no county that deviates from its zoning ordinance to accommodate mountainous type terrain. He recommends that this matter be addressed before the Board of Adjustment, which would be a normal procedure. Commissioner Bryan suggested Mr. Grier be written a letter advisina him of the procedures since he was the one who brought the issue before the board during the time of countywide zoning. MOTION from Commissioner Stewart to accept the recommendation from Mr. Lundy, planning direc- tor, and not grant any setbacks for mountainous type terrain, but to go on a case-by-case basis and encourage any person who is confronted with a terrain problem such as this to take the issue to the board of adjustment.

The county attorney, Mr. William P. Pope, brought the board up-to-date on the background information. He said there was no way he could quantify the risks involved in spending these funds.

BRIEFING The Iredell County Board of Commissioners met in Adjourned Regular Session for a briefing of the evening's agenda. The meeting was held in the South Wing Conference Room, Iredell County Government Center, 200 S. Center Street, Statesville, NC. Those present for the meeting were: R. B. Sloan Jr., Chairman Alice M. Stewart, Vice Chairman Sara K. Haire Doug Madison Frank Mitchel] Staff present: Joel Mashburn, County Manager Alice Fortner, Clerk to the Board Susan Goodman, Finance Officer Jerry Lundy, Planning Director Richard Franklin, Staff Engineer Bill Mashburn, Health Director Lois Troutman, Tax Assessor Brent Weisner, Reappraisal Director Chairman Sloan called the meeting to order. REVIEW OF THE KEWUANEE BUILDING RENOVATION FOR THE HEALTH DEPARTMENT: Mr. Gene Krider began the meeting by showing a drawing of the proposed renovations. He said the cost of the area for Tri- County would be $375,000. Tri-County has $75,000 available now. They would be willing to look at some type of lease arrangement over a period of time. They talked about the payback of $375,000. A fifteen-year period amortized will run $30,000; 10 year period for the same amount of funds would run $43,000. Tri-county doesn't feel they can handle the shorter period of time. Mr. Dan Bradshaw said his board reviewed the project last night and he received a very enthusiatic and unanimous endorsement to proceed. There was a discussion of their currently existing office space. Gene Krider explained some of the drawings and called on the health director to continue the explantion of the plan for the health department. In answer to a question raised, it was stated that new construction is estimated at $75 to $70 square foot. This price would be on the low end. In looking at the exterior, it was stated the overflow parking would be grassed. No building can go on the grassed area. Grassed area will meet the state requirements. They would be ready to go to bid in four to five months. There is no asbestos known of in the building. Froeling and Robertson did an assessment. The roof appears to be in good condition, Chuck Goode said. It is 15 years old. It was stated the next step would be to go back to First Union and look at increasing the loan. It was believed it would be good because interest rates have dropped since the original financing began. The life of this building is much longer than the ten years, which is the length of the previous loan. It was thought that a 15-year financial plan might be best. Ms. Goodman said the Supreme Court upheld the 160A-120 law for financing which allows a county to do a different kind of financing. She said it would be a lower interest rate, and the county would maintain the title to the property during the payback period, which is not the case under the current financial plan. RURAL ADDRESSING SYSTEM: Larry Dickerson talked about the rural addressing system. It was suggested by the chairman that Mr. Dickerson come back to the next agenda briefing. REPORT ON EMS TASK FORCE: Mr. Mashburn reported on this meeting with the recommendation that one more unit be added in the Mooresville area. An additional two people, untilizing the existing convalescent crew of four, is all that will be required. It is estimated that it will cost $60,000 a year for two additional people. That is for wages and fringe benefits. No equipment is needed. It was questioned if this would come up for enactment now or with the new budget in July. If it begins now, the funds will have to be taken from Unappropriated Fund Balance, because there is not enough money in Contingency to fund it. Additional funds will also have to be taken from Unappropriated Fund Balance to take care of the FLSA overtime with the fluctuating work week. This is estimted to be another $20,000. AUDIT CONTRACT CONSIDERED: Susan Goodman recommended a contract with Foster and McLelland at $20,700. This, she said, is much lower than other counties are paying, and the firm does very professional work. This is to go on the Consent Agenda. GRANT FOR HEALTH DEPARTMENT, INFANT MORTALITY RATE REDUCTION, 50%: This is a state grant for 50% of the time rather than the 100% of time requested in the grant. This will pay for the grant until such time as Medicaid payments begin to come in to cover the costs. At that time it becomes self-funding. This item was placed on the Consent Agenda for this evening's agenda. BONDURANT BUILDING, SHERIFF'S OFFICE: $3,500 is required for this office space. It is recom- mended for approval on Consent Agenda. TAX COLLECTION REPORT: This December 1990 report was submitted for information to the board. The board continued the discussion of various matters while the clerk left the meeting to prepare the adjusted agenda. The meeting adjourned at approximately 6:15 for a short intermission prior to the seven o'clock meeting.

If this is not done, the department can be fined for delays. A question was raised if the economy reverses, will there be a reduction in these positions that are being requested because of a slow-down in the economy at this time. Mr. Don Wall said the staff would be reduced by attrition if this should occur. MOTION from Commissioner Stewart to approve Mr. Wall's request for three Income Maintenance Case Worker II positions.

Haire Doug Madison Frank Mitchel] Staff present: Joel Mashburn, County Manager Alice Fortner, Clerk to the Board Chairman Sloan called the meeting to order and made some statements pertaining to the county's position at this time. He said the Iredell County Board of Commissioners is confronted with one of the most uncertain periods faced in several years. He mentioned cutbacks from the State and said the State is unwilling to raise taxes or cut back on spending. Most of the services are mandated by state to local government. The federal level is anticipated to be very critical and the local governments will feel the impact of this. The needs on the local level will not go away. He mentioned that the economy is slowing down. New construction is falling off and, among other things, unemployment has increased by 50% in the county, from 4% unemployed to 6% After making other comments, he asked those present to make comments. Those speaking were: Mr. Ladd: He was concerned with hunters on his property who were under the influence of alcohol. He reported they were trespassing on his property. He inquired if there is a fine on public drunkenness. He said he calls the Sheriff's Department when these hunters come on his property but it takes a while for the department to respond. Victor Crosby: Spoke about the telephone system that would allow people to call more areas without paying long-distance tolls. Commissioner Haire reported on the status of the toll-free telephone line to the county seat from all over the county. A meeting is set for Monday, January 28th, in Raleigh on this matter. Victor Crosby: Also spoke about the Williamsburg Sanitary District. He said they had been waiting for water for 28 years. He had some ideas on how he thought it could be financed. Mrs. Trivett: Spoke about her situation on Tabor Church Road. She lives in the middle of Tabor Church Road and there are water on both ends, but she does not have access to either line. Both lines belong to Iredell Water Corporation. Mrs. Mary Ann Sloan: Spoke about the school merger and inquired what the board thought about having a two-year delay in consolidation, which will give the superintendents time to finish their contracts. Chairman Sloan recommended the people call their school board members in reference to these school matters. Sam Hall: He welcomed the county commissioners to North Iredell] County. He spoke of his involvement with the committee to consider placing another ambulance in South Iredell County. He urged the board members to accept the committee's recommendations. He said he would be happy to answer any questions commissioners may have about the committee's findings. Chairman Sloan said Commissioner Haire reported to the county commissioners at the last board meeting (January 15, 1991). He said this is one of the items that would be discussed on the retreat. Commissioner Madison said he appreciated the people from North Iredell coming out. He spoke of the very positive aspects of Iredell County and said this is a good opportunity for citizens to become involved in the local government. Mr. John Huie spoke about a satellite library in Union Grove to serve North Iredell County. He said there is vast growth in the northern part of the county; they have a library in Mooresville. The Ruritan Club has purchased the old principal's house at the Union Grove School site. They are currently using the house for Ruritan meetings and other community gatherings. The Ruritans would be willing to offer this building rent-free for the county to house a library. People in the community would be willing to do volunteer work to staff the library, Mr. Huie said. Mr. Mashburn said he thought there were rules about the qualifications of a library staff person, if the county receives state grant funds. There will be a need for bookcases, a telphone, and for the county to pay the utilities, should the county decide to consider this program. The books that are currently stored were addressed. While there are quite a few books in storage, they are not what is currently needed and wanted by students and the general public, Mr. Mashburn said. He said books have become quite expensive, and it would be very costly to stock a satellite library. The new mobile library unit was discussed. This has been helpful to rural areas over the years, especially for the rest homes. gnten Chairman Sloan adjourned the meeting at 9:30 p.m. The next meeting is sch : .m, t eduled January 22, 1991, at 7:00 p.m., Troutman Town Hall, Troutman, NC. g uled for Tuesday, Mh ol St , i.

Staff will take further steps to contact Dr. Carrigan on this project. INFORMATION IN THE AGENDA PACKET REGARDING INDUSTRIAL DEVELOPMENT: Mr. Bill Pope made comments on information in the agenda packet regarding industrial development that came from The Charlotte Observer. Mr. Pope said he had opportunity in the past to see what could be done to recruit industry to the area. The Constitution of North Carolina does not allow expenditure of public funds for anything but public purpose, he said. Case laws have been established that giving money or land to a private company is not a public purpose. Special legislation has allowed Buncombe County to do heavy duty recruiting by giving away county assets. It is debatable whether this is a good policy or not, he said. When every county gets this type of legislation, then recruitment will become a "bidding" contest, and Mr. Pope wonders if anyone will gain when it gets to that point. Courts have not addressed the legality of the situation. The legislature may permit things which may not be Constitutional. The Institute of Government does not think it is Constitutional. The Department of Commerce is very interested in this. Secretary Broyhill said recently that North Carolina has led the nation in the creation of jobs. South Carolina is extremely aggressive in providing incentives. Chairman Sloan said one of the most heated controversies that has come before the board has been over this subject. It is clear to him there are strong feelings on this subject. REZONING, LESTER VAN DEMARK PROPERTY, CASE #9102-1: Mr. Jack Clanton questioned the vote of the board on the captioned matter.

ADMINISTRATIVE MATTERS REPORT ON MCNEARY INSURANCE STUDY ON LOWRANCE HOSPITAL PROFESSIONAL LIABILITY LOSSES: Chair- man Sloan opened the discussion on this subject. He referred to the discussion at the briefing where the board heard a recommendation from the McNeary Insurance Agency in Charlotte, who gave a recommendation on a level of comfort for liabilities that could be sustained through lawsuits from previous patients at the Lowrance Hospital establishment. Chairman Sloan also spoke of a commitment the board had with the South Iredell] Chamber of Commerce for $2.8 million. Chairman Sloan made the following MOTION: That the county retain for the purposes of security of any future claim the sum of $480,000 which would represent a 98% comfort level, as projected by the McNeary Study. The balance we would consider to be turned over for use in South Iredell, and I move that we would ask the hospital board to reconvene and recommend how to spend the balance. In referring to the South Iredell Development loan, Chairman Sloan said previously at the briefing the sum of $800,000 was recommended to be held as had been reauested by them. Chairman Sloan said he thought this $480,000 was a compromise on what should be left with the County as security against future liabilities. Ms. Susan Goodman, Finance Officer, recommended that $100,000 should remain at the County for insurance expenditure and other administrative expenditures. Commissioner Madison said he personally felt that this is a overkill. The property at South Iredell Park is industrial property, and he felt if money is required for liabilities, while the funds may not be liquid, it is a very collateralized asset. He suggested that the board allow the disbursement of all the funds and retain the $2.8 collateralized asset at the South Iredell! Indus- trial Park until such time that the land is sold and decide at that time whether to continue to hold the funds. Chairman Sloan said if there is a need to pay out a claim and the development's loan has not been repaid, it would force the County to take some action. He also said that if the property is not sold as anticipated, the county will be forced to sell. Also, McNeary recommended that the funds for an anticipated liability be set aside and let the interest accumulate on this amount of funds. Chairman Sloan said he did not like having an unse- cured liability. Commissioner Madison said there are no open claims. He thought that the board was being even more conservative than what the McNeary representative was in the model they used in making their liability projections. He said claims can take one to two years to settle once they are filed. Commissioner Haire said based on the study made by McNeary, she concurred with Commissioner Madison. VOTING ON SLOAN'S MOTION: Ayes - 2 (Sloan, Stewart) Nays - 3 (Madison, Haire, Mitchell) MOTION from Commissioner Madison that we accept the $2.8 million as the collateralized security for anticipated liabilities and allow disbursement of the remaining funds to the people in South Iredell and send it back to the committee for recommendations on how it should be spent. The County should hold $50,000 to cover expenses they have incurred in handling these funds.

REFINANCING OF AN EXISTING LEASE/PURCHASE AGREEMENT AND ADDITIONAL BORROWING FOR PURCHASING AND RENOVATING KEWAUNEE BUILDING ON HIGHWAY 21, NORTH OF STATESVILLE: to adopt the following resolution: MOTION from Commissioner Stewart ee RESOLUTION REGARDING A PROPOSED PURCHASE AND RENOVATION AND FINANCING ARRANGEMENT OF A HEALTH DEPARTMENT WHEREAS, the Iredell County Board of Commissioners desires to purchase a building and renovate it for a health department to better serve the citizens of Iredell County: and WHEREAS, the Iredell County Board of Commissioners desires to finance the construction of the necessary facility for the health department by installment contract with a financial institution; and WHEREAS, the Local Government Commission of the North Carolina Department of the State Treasurer reauires that the Iredel] County Board of Commissioners makes certain findings before the Commission can grant approval to the County's application for approval of this particular install- ment contract as authorized under North Carolina General Statute 160A, Article 3, Section 20: THEREFORE, BE IT RESOLVED that the Board of Commissioners of Iredell County, North Carolina in a Regular Meeting of the Board finds as follows: 1. The proposed project is the purchase and renovation of a building to function as a health department. The proposed method of financing is a fifteen-year installment contract between the County and a financial institution for the full amount of the purchase price plus renovations. 2. The purchase and renovation of the building to be used as a health department is necessary because the existing health department building, which was built in 1955, lacks sufficient space to efficiently and professionally provide services to the citizens of Iredell County. The overcrowded facilities at the existing building have forced the County to lease space at two additional in-town locations. Upon completion of the new facility, all health department services will be offered at one location. 3. The proposed construction of the health department is $3,400,000, which includes purchase of the building and land, design, and renovations. The County will give a Deed of Trust to the financial institution to fully collateralize the installment-purchase contract and no deficiency judgment will be allowed in the event the County defaults on payments. Using this method of finan- cing, there will be absolutely no pledge of the County's taxing authority. 4. The County Attorney has rendered an opinion that the project is authorized by law and is a purpose for which public funds may be expended pursuant to the Constitution and laws of North Carolina at this time. 5. Because of the expeditious nature of this project and the relatively small nature of the project cost, the proposed installment contract is preferable to alternative financing mechanisms as follows: a. Current appropriations in the County's operatina Budaet are inadeauate to fund this project. b. Currently fund balance available for appropriation is not sufficient to fund the project. c. The County does not retire enough debt annually to fund this project using the "two-thirds limitations." d. The proposed financing is preferable to a General Obligation Bond because the costs of authorizing and issuing bonds would be areater than those associated with the installment contract. e. Revenue Bonds are inappropriate for this project. 6. After receivina competitive bids for financing the project the board of commissioners has chosen, upon Local Government Commission approval, to finance the total cost of the project with First Union National Bank for fifteen years at 7.26% interest. The total cost of the financing agreement is $5,439,131, including principal and interest. The interest rate compares favorably to interest rates of recent general obligation bond issues. 7. Examination of the audited financial statements for the past three fiscal years of Iredel] County will show that the County's debt management policies are in strict compliance with North Carolina law. 8. No increase in the property tax rate will be necessary to raise sums to fall due under this contract in each fiscal year during the term of the contract. Funding for the debt service payments will be through annual appropriation in the operating budaet for the General Fund. 9. The County is neither in default nor has it ever been in default in meeting its debt service obligations. 10. The County solicited proposals from five local financial institutions to ensure the County was receiving the most favorable terms and interest rates. 11. The Board of County Commissioners hereby directs the finance officer to file an application with the Local Government Commission for the project as described. 1445 1445 This, the a day of May, 1991, IREDELL COUNTY BOARD OF COMMISSIONERS R.

Heretofore, the Mooresville Graded School District boundaries have been outside of the boundaries of the Town of Mooresville; however, with the recent satellite annexation and other annexations, a question has arisen about the possiblity of these two boundaries being congruous so that whenever the Town of Mooresville annexed property into the Town, it would automatically become a part of the Mooresville Graded School District. House Bill 543 has been introduced in Raleigh to "clarify these boundaries," and Representative Wayne Kahl has asked the board's recommendation on this.

It was the consensus that the depart- ment head, Jim Wall, would give prior approval and report to the county manager who would be taking the county vehicles home. MOTION from Commissioner Stewart to amend the County's Vehicle Policy to include the following under section titled "The Use of County Owned Vehicles," Paragraph A. 5. Recreation department staff would be allowed to drive county vehicles home after late night meetings, ball games, or coming back into town after dark on out of county meetings.

In attendance were: R. B. Sloan Jr., Chairman Alice M. Stewart, Vice Chairman Sara K. Haire Doug Madison Frank Mitchell Staff present: Joel Mashburn, County Manager Susan Goodman, Finance Director Jean Moore, Actina Clerk to the Board CALL TO ORDER: By Chairman Sloan The county manager began the budaet presentation by complimenting the finance director and her staff for their excellent work in getting the FY 1991-92 budget materials together and for compiling the information. BUDGET PRESENTATION: Mr. Mashburn advised that we would like to be in a better position of knowing what the State is planning to do: however, even with the circumstances confronted this year, aad we never know positively about our budaet projections. The county needs to be conservative during 1991-92. The current year has been fairly successful as the county has had an increase in the tax " base, and it is estimated that our tax base will increase by $223,145,977 to aive us a base of $3,231,590,152. New industries have moved into the county, and there have been no drastic downturns in real estate. The tax rate is recommended to remain the same at 59 cents per $100 valuation. It was also stated by the county manager that: - Due to so many uncertainties with the leaislature, no increase has been projected for inventory taxes: however, we should expect to receive at least the same as FY 90-91. - The amount of six and one-half percent is projected in intanaible taxes for the upcoming year. Some arowth is expected even though again it is unclear about reimbursements and the State. ‘ - A conservative increase (2%) has been projected for the sales tax for 1991-92, and it might be even higher. New shopping centers have been built, and more are being proposed. - An increase has been projected in the appropriation of the fund balance; and the entire $500,000 fund balance appropriated is to go into the Capital Reserve Fund. An 11% unappropriated fund balance will still be left, leaving the County in a good position. - FY 91-92 will be the first year the school supplemental tax for the Iredel1/Statesville School System will be used under the authorizing legislation. The general fund projects a 5% increase to all schools for both capital and current expense. ae - It is recommended that Solid Waste Disposal fees shall be charged effective October 1, 1991. The landfill is expected to generate enough revenue to operate as an enterprise fund. . A 4.25% increase in salaries and wages is recommended in the upcoming budget. This is necessary to keep our pay plan as current as possible. The 4.25% increase will allow the county to continue the merit plan which gives employees a potential merit increase of between 2.25% to 4.5% on an employee's anniversary date and an across-the-board increase of 2%, effective July 1, 1991. - A total of 16.5 new positions have been recommended in the proposed budget at a total cost of $260,144. The departments requesting the positions are: DSS (7): landfill (6); Sheriff/ Jail (3); and the Fire Marshal is reauesting a part-time employee being hired as full time. The county department heads were praised by the county manager for their conservative departmental reauests. Cut backs were made in travel, training and supplies. Chairman Sloan requested that the other board members begin to look at the budaet, and at the next meeting give some direction as to how they would like to begin their budget review sessions. 14 o-4 The county manager advised that should any additional documentation be needed the staff would be glad to try to supply it.

IREDELL MEMORIAL HOSPITAL - LOW INTEREST RATE BONDS: Mr. Arnold Nunnery and members of the Iredell Memorial Hospital board of trustees came to the board about the acauisition of bonds at a rate of 4.2 interest as part of a hospital bond pool in which Iredell Memorial is involved. They are working with some other hospitals to go together to form a pool to acauire funds for replacement and renovation of equipment and space. Mr. Nunnery said the board of directors has approved this request for bonds and recommends approval to the board of commissioners. Iredell Memorial Hopsital has an AAA bond rating. The bonds will be backed by a Letter of Credit issued from First Union » aie National Bank. The Iredell Memorial portion of the bond pool is $5 million and will be used for acquisition of capital equipment, Nunnery said. According to Nunnery legal arbitrage is allowable on this project, which means they will pay 4.2% to borrow the funds and can reinvest at 7% until the funds are needed for the eauipment. The indebtedness of the hospital is now $17.9 million, $ .5 million of this is pool loans. Mr. Bill Pope said he could not give absolute assurance that the County had no exposure on the bonds. He is less sure of this than in the past. In the most recent audit report of the county's books, the indebtedness for Iredell] Memorial Hopsital was "footnoted" in their audit reports, Ms. Goodman, said. This is something that the County has never had to do in previous years. Ms. Goodman, Mr. Pope, and Mr. Nunnery have spoken extensively to the Local Government Commission in this regard. Mr. Pope said in terms of possibilities, he did not know of any way to quantify the county's exposure; however, he did say he thought Iredell Memorial Hopsital is a well run and is sound financially. The board of commissioners discussed the possibility of putting off a decision on this matter until Thursday at 4:00 p.m., when the board is scheduled to meet for budget deliberation; however, if Mr. Pope can get in touch with the Local Government Commission, it may be that an answer can be given for this meeting this evening. Mr. Pope is especially interested in this since he will be out of town on Thursday and will be unable to meet with the board to give a recommendation at that time. CONSENT AGENDA: The board discussed items for the agenda this evening and placed some of them on Consent Agenda. 4 UPDATE ON THE LANDFILL PROGRESS: Carson Fisher, Staff Engineer, gave a report on the landfill * progress in the new equipment and the Gilbert contract.

They think the DOT at Shelby is responsible for them. SCOTTS CREEK ROAD AND OLD WILKESBORO ROAD INTERSECTION: Commissioner Mitchell said this parti- cular interesection presents a hazard. He asked if there was any way that the DOT could look at the interesection and help to make it safer. TRAVEL AND TOURISM: Mr. Shuford, owner of Bummer's Restaurant, came before the board in reference to the Travel and Tourism funds. He said he was going to resign from this board. Mrs. Judy Lazenby was with him and they asked the board of commissioners to try to get half the funds back in the county's coffers since Statesville is planning to spend some of the funds this year. REPORT ON LAW ENFORCEMENT BUDGET: Sheriff Clyde Lloyd came before the board to give some cuts he had made in his budget. He is cutting $5,000 out of training, $5,000 in ammunition, $39,445 for a bailiff position (includes all required gear and car), $14,400 for deleting the reauest for a plain car. This totals a $63,845 decrease. It was mentioned that some of their mandated services have increased.

The following commissioners were present: R. B. Sloan Jr., Chairman Alice M. Stewart, Vice Chairman Sara K. Haire Doug Madison Frank Mitchel] Staff present: Joel Mashburn, County Manager Alice Fortner, Clerk to the Board Susan Goodman, Finance Officer CALL TO ORDER: By Chairman Sloan SCHOOL FUNDING DISCUSSED: Mr. Mashburn reported that he would like to recap the rules pertaining to the appropriations for the school systems. According to GS 115-C-429, the county commissioners can fund according to purpose, function, and projects, but cannot fund by line item. The board then discussed how the funding would be done, but decided they should wait until they had first decided the amount of funding. In a straw vote, the board voted by a majority to fund at the level in the General Fund budget, which will be 5% above the amount funded last year. This is for both capital and current expense funding. The majority of the board members in the straw vote chose not to initiate the school tax district funding at 74¢, as proposed by the manager. The board then discussed the 44% salary increase for county employees, which is 2% across the c board and the other 24% in merit salary funding. ADJOURN: The board adjourned for dinner break at 5:15 p.m., because Chariman Sloan had left at 4:45 p.m. and the board members wanted to wait until Mr. Sloan returned before resuming discussion on other matters. lt ro La ie The board resumed the meeting at 6:00 p.m. and discussed the youth home budget, the revaluation and the 911 coordinator. FIRE TAX DISTRICT: MOTION from Commissioner Mitchell to go back to the original amount of the fire tax district rate of 3.8¢, which will be no increase and will leave the excess funds in the fire departments' fund balance, and leave it up to the fire commission how to disburse of the funds.

RECREATION DEPARTMENT: The board voted unanimously to leave this budget the same as it was last year. Don't include the Capital projects. SCHOOLS: Further discussion of the schools began. An additional 5% in Current Expense would bring in $355,793. This 5% is not based upon the number of students but is actually 5% over what the schools received last year. There is $97,773 in additional Regular Capital Outlay which is based on a per pupil allocation. There is also $4,493,620 in Special Capital. Commissioner Madison said he wanted to keep the money in the instructional areas. The board also discussed funding $2,554,200 for the East Middle School.

At - Nhe aa. “Clerk to the Board APPROVED: Wha /¢) 1472 IREDELL COUNTY BOARD OF COMMISSIONERS BUDGET SESSION JUNE 11, 1991 The Iredell] County Board of Commissioners met at 4:00 p.m. on Tuesday, June 11, 1991, for a budget session. The board planned to meet in The South Wing Conference Room of the Iredell County Government Center; however, because of an overflow crowd in attendance, the meeting was moved to the County Commissioners Meeting Room in the Government Center. The 250-seat capacity is all that is allowed in this room because of City fire codes; therefore, because people were standing around the sides of the room and in the back, Chairman Sloan adjourned the meeting to reconvene at 4:30 p.m. at MacGray Auditorium, Statesville Senior High School, on North Center Street, Statesville. At 4:30 p.m., Chairman Sloan called the meeting to order at MacGray Auditorium, Statesville Senior High School, as stated above. Remarks made by Chairman Sloan: This board has been discussing the school budget for several months now. The last few days have brought numerous accounts of the motion and the vote taken by the board on the school budgets at our last meeting. This board has been divided over the proper course to take on the school systems. We have tentatively arrived at a compromise. Our agreement will allow the construction of all the capital projects as recommended: West Iredell Middle School East Iredell Middle School Statesville Middle School $700,000 for other Capital Outlay The compromise increases the Current Expense funding from $629 to $686, which is a 9% increase. All of this has been accomplished without an increase of the current 59-cent ad valorem tax rate. For those who might be interested, presently the projected completion date for East Iredell Middle is March 1993. By moving the completion date to May 31, 1993, we will be able to fund all the capital projects. The goal is to have East Iredell, Statesville and West Iredell Middle Schools completed by 1995. This compromise agreement will accomplish this goal. On Current Expense, the Iredell-Statesville School Board requested $712 per student plus the revenues received by the additional two cents on the Supplemental Tax. That would equate to $750 per student. Obviously a 9% increase was not what was requested. Without a doubt cuts will be made by the school board. How was this accomplished without a tax increase? Approximately two years ago, there was a concerted effort to increase the county's fund balance. We have been able to increase our fund balance from 7% to 11% today. Personal remarks by Chairman Sloan: Like most compromises no one leaves totally satisfied. Everybody has input but nobody really wins. (Not clear) I want the school boards to spend their money intelligently. The ideas of having two separate systems must end this minute. Fund balances belong to one system. The unknown is what will happen next year. By funding 4% of the 11% fund balance, we are placing a burden on ourselves next year that we will hve to address. My point is this. The direction of education of the county will be set over the next 18 months. If you have strong feelings on what should be done in this county on educa- tion, you better become involved. MOTION from Commissioner Haire to delay the vote on this compromise until the June 18, 1991 meeting, until she has more time to consider this proposal. VOTING: Ayes - 5; Nays - 0. PETROPAR, INC. HOLDING COMPANY FOR ALTA, INC., A WHOLLY OWNED SUBSIDIARY OF PETROPAR, INC. - INDUSTRIAL REVENUE BONDS: Mr. Jamie Bryant, attorney representing Petropar, Inc. and Alta, Inc., came before the board in reference to the industrial revenue bonds project. His request was that the board approve the project in principal and to call for a public hearing on this matter for 7:00 p.m., Tuesday, July 2, 1991. Mr. Bill Pope, County Attorney, requested that the Iredell County Board of Commissioners approve the firm of Robinson, Bradshaw & Hinson to act as bond counsel for Iredell County in this matter. Mr. Bryant explained that Alta, Inc. manufactured a monopol ypropolene product which goes into baby diapers, personal hygiene products and airline pillows. They have acquired a ten-acre site in the Mooresville Business Park. *- Mr. Bryan said the Iredell County Industrial Revenue Bonds Authority is a monitoring process to ensure that the project is properly funded and qualifies for the bonds. A New York bank will issue a letter of Credit. Alta Corpora- tion is a subsidiary of the Petropar Inc., and they have asked for up to $10 million in bonds. They plan to have 60 employees in the first phase and expect that the facility will be doubled in size. They have no waste except personal wastes from the bathroom facilities. The time frame is to close on the property by the end of this month. The operation is to begin in January 1992. The board members inauired what made the corporation choose Iredell County over other locations considered. Mr. Bryant responded that the county's proximity to Charlotte, Lake Norman, and the quality of life. The difference between Iredell County site and the Rowan County site was the prompt attention and the enthusiasm of the Mooresville/South Iredell Chamber of Commerce. MOTION from Commissioner Madison to approve the concept of the issue of the industrial revenue bond to be issued by the industrial bonds authority and appoint the firm of Robinson, Bradshaw & Hinson to serve as bond counsel for Iredell County.

ADJOURN: Chairman Sloan adjourned the meeting at 5:30 p.m. Next meeting is scheduled for Tuesday, June 18, 1991, 4:00 p.m., Mac Gray Auditorium, Statesville High School, North Center Street, Statesville, NC. 4p - A / Clerk to the Board APPROVED: Mh LG Z 14°76 IREDELL COUNTY BOARD OF COMMISSIONERS MINUTES JUNE 18, 1991 - BRIEFING The Iredell County Boad of Commissioners met in adjourned regular session for briefing and budget review at 4:00 p.m., Tusesday, June 18, 1991, MacGray Auditorium, Statesville Senior High School, North Center Street, Statesville, NC. The reason for the meeting being held at MacGray Auditorium was because it is a larger facility than the County Commissioners' Meeting Room, and a crowd was expected because of the decisions being made on the school budget for FY 91-92. Those present for the meeting were: R. B. Sloan Jr., Chairman Alice M. Stewart, Vice Chairman Sara K. Haire Doug Madison Frank Mitchel] Staff present: Joel Mashburn, County Manager William P. Pope, County Attorney Alice Fortner, Clerk to the Board Susan Goodman, Finance Officer Carson Fisher, Engineer Jerry Lundy, Planning Director CALL TO ORDER: By Chairman Sloan Chairman Sloan announced that this was a routine agenda. The discussion held last Tuesday, June 11, 1991, had to do with the school budgets. This is to be the first item of business. Chairman Sloan then called for a motion. Commissioner Madison made a motion to accept the $686 per student funding for Current Expense for the 1991-92 school year, and Captial funding at $186.90 per pupil. This represents a nine per cent in Current Expense and a five percent increase in Regular Capital Outlay, Commissioner Madison said. Commissioner Mitchell inquired if this motion is adopted, does that mean there would be no tax increase to cover the increases, to which the Chairman replied there would be no tax increase to cover these increases. These funds are to come from the Fund Balance. Commissioner Mitchel] inquired if the East Iredell Middle School will be started two months later than originally planned and completed by May 1993. Commissioner Mitchell asked for reaffirma- tion that this level of funding will not slow down the building programs the school system has planned. He also stated that the county commissioners were told that this did not involve any teacher cuts and classroom supply funds. Chairman Sloan said the classroom would be the last to suffer the cuts. That is the understanding that he had. Commissioner Madison asked to make a prepared statement which is written as follows: The budget proposal that is before us today is not perfect, but neither is our current year budget. On our agenda tonight are three budget amendments that will be adopted to correct this current budget. This proposal is a compromise or a melting together on a number of opinions and views. The end result may not be perfect, but it does seem to be acceptable to a number of commis- sioners and some school board members. I hope that with the adoption of this proposal we can move into the merged school system with an efficient administration and adequate funding at the classroom level. With the proposed capital budget we will be able to maintain our capital improvements schedule with only slight delays which should be of no conseauence., Realizing that Capital Improvements are large and intergal parts of the merger plan, I would ask the other commissioners and board of education to join together and explore the feasibility of a general obligation bond issue to fund the capital needs of our school system. I see the advantages of such an action be be fourfold: ) Interest rates are low. .) Construction could take place quicker at lower prices. ) The school system would have use of of the upgraded buildings sooner. 4.) The board of education would not have to worry from year to year if they will have the money to pay for their building program. wn . . This is not a proposal or a motion but is a suggestion. If we have enough interest, we could have our county manager gather the necessary information for further consideration. In closing, let's put the past in the past. Consolidation is the law. Let us work together to unify our county and our school system. Chairman Sloan said the board made this proposal last Tuesday as a compromise among the five vl commissioners. There is some thinking that the school boards have agreed to this. I don't believe the school boards would have requested what has been proposed. What this is is several schools of thought. On June 6 there was a very lively debate by this board on the school funding issue, and this board was split. The proposal that we had last Tuesday was something we could all support without cutting the legs out from under the schools. The compromise was the 5% already in the budget and an additional 4% coming from fund balance to increase the current expense to 9% It is not the best practice to be taking money from the fund blance. Fund Balance is for the future and for handling emergencies. ‘ | pg ’ ’ -Mr. Sloan also spoke about the $600,000. fund balance the schools had. He also spoke about the using of the county's fund balance. This means that if we are going to fund next year at the same level, the board will have to raise taxes, he said. Mr. Sloan addressed the subject of the general obligation bond. He said this would require about three cents using a 20-year bond. This would allow the schools to accelerate some of their capital projects. Mr. Sloan said the budget for the schools that is being adopted is not ideal. It is not what anybody really wants, but is is a compromise. It does not raise taxes. Commissioner Stewart spoke saying she did not have any prepared remarks. She said the $600,000 in the schools' budget could have been used to air condition some of the schools. She said she had been on the board since 1984 and was involved in county government for ten years before that and she has never seen the county have an eleven percent fund balance. She thought this has been unheard of during the past ten to twelve years. She recalls that it is usually somewhere between four and seven percent. Mrs. Stewart discussed her thoughts on when would be the best time to enact the tax on the school district. In her opinion a better time to do this is when the revaluation of property is completed next year. This will give a better picture of how much one cent on the tax rate will generate in tax revenues, she said. She said this, more than anything, has been the reason she is reluctant to enact the tax in the school district. In addition, she said changes are still being made in Raleigh, and the county commissioners still do not know what the outcome will be. She said she had rather wait until it is closer to the first of July before adopting a budget. Chairman Sloan made the statement that the legislature has not adopted a budget. The state has already made cuts in the budget, and what is being done here today does not anticipate any additional cuts that may be made in Raleigh. COMMISSIONER MADISON CALLED FOR THE QUESTION.

Mr. Mashburn recommended that the board approve these funds contingent upon the availablity of states funds as a match with the county's portion for these salaries.

Mr. Aycock feels that the State will make a decision by the 6th, and probably that decision will be some form of the 1/2 cent sales tax for the county which will replace the Reimbursement Tax the counties now receive in lieu of the intangible tax and the inventory tax formerly repealed by the state government. In discussing the tax, Ms. Goodman said the county receives $1.8 million in the Reimbursement Tax. The sales tax will yield $1.5 million the first year, she said. This means there is a deficit of $300,000 the first year that will have to come from the county's fund balance in order to achieve the present level of revenues. Chairman Sloan inquired how quickly this sales tax can be implemented if the state does actual- ly pass it. Mr. Mashburn said they are working out legislation that will allow a quicker implemen- tation of the tax through a shorter time period on the notice of public hearing (reducing the time from 10 days to five days). Mr. Mashburn also reiterated that that will not be a tax that will give any additional revenues; it is a replacement tax for revenues that will no longer be available to counties. Mr. Mashburn recommended that the county commissioners go ahead and adopt an interim budget which will allow the county to operate its day-to-day activities. There cannot be any capital purchases made, but the county can continue at the present level for salaries and other necessary expenses that would occur during this interim period until the state has made its decision on its budget for FY 1991-92. DARE PROGRAM: The board discussed a request from the City of Statesville regarding the DARE program funds to come from the Local ABC funds formerly allocated to the Statesville City Schools. This is approximately $80,000. Mr. Mashburn said the budget has the county's share of the funds already in it for the DARE program. NO ACTION TAKEN. STATESVILLE AIRPORT FUNDS: There was $45,000 from the 1990-91 budget that went into fund balance at the conclusion of the 90-91 fiscal year. These funds will remain a part of fund balance unless the board reappropriates them in to the airport line item of the Special Appropriations budget. NO BOARD ACTION. SCHOOL BUDGET AMENDMENT: An amendment to the 90-91 school budget that was inadvertently overlooked previously was presented to the board for approval. The amendment permitted the moving of funds from Iredell County Schools Fund Balance to the line items for construction of North Middle, furniture and equipment for North Middle, Architect fees for North Middle, anda multi- purpose building at Monticello. The total amount of the amendment is $571,630. After discussion board members decided to wait until the newly combined board is in place before considering this amendment further. MOTION from Commissioner Madison to table the amendment until the July 16th meeting. VOTING: AYES - 5; Nays - 0.

Haire Doug Madison Frank Mitchell ¢ Staff present: Joel Mashburn, County Manager Alice Fortner, Clerk to the Board Susan Goodman, Finance Officer Jerry Lundy, Planning Director DISCUSSION OF TRAVEL AND TOURISM REQUEST FOR FUNDS: Chairman Sloan called the meeting to order and the board began discussing the proposal for the Statesville Travel and Tourism Board. The two questions to be answered were: (1) Are you going to continue to extend these funds for anything besides the civic center? (2) If so, how much? Commissioner Stewart suagested that the county commissioners have a meeting with the | 2 Statesville City Council members and iron out the plan for funding with the hotel/motel tax. The board discussed when would be the best time to do this. It was suagested that the commissioners ‘* reauest to get on the July 15th agenda. It was mentioned that the City had funded the Carolinas Partnership and the Doawood Festival out of the Travel and Tourism Funds. After further discussion Commissioner Mitchel] said he would make a motion to extend the sunset clause for an additional year and fund the Statesville Travel and Tourism Board at $27,000 or 10% of the Hotel/Motel Taxes, whichever is less. This motion is to be made by Commissioner Mitchell at the 7:00 p.m. meeting. Commissioner Alice Stewart said she wished to be replaced on the Travel and Tourism Board. The board members also concurred that the City of Statesville should be notified that the 7 County wanted the use of the hotel/motel funds to be restricted to the Travel and Tourism Board and for the Civic Center. COLONEL SHARPE HOUSE: Mr. James Walker, director of the Iredell Arts Council, came to the board in reference to an offer from Mrs. Knox who owns the Colonel Sharpe house. Mrs. Knox wishes to give the house to the County. She has had $250,000 worth of renovations done to the house. She has no heirs and wishes that the property be held for the public. Mr. Walker said the house could be used for meetings and office space. The property has been declared tax exempt. After further discussion, the board directed the county manager or his designee to look into this. The county manager is to check the condition of the facility and look into some possible uses ¢ for the house and report back to the board. TURNER STIMPSON: Mr. Stimpson has reauested to address the board about a possible position for himself as a driver of a handicapped van throughout the county to pick up the elderly to deliver them to the doctors' offices and other places they need to ao. Mr. Stimpson has been voluntarily doing this for about two years, but he now finds it necessary to earn an income and thinks this would be a aood way. He had proposed a budget consistina of a salary for himself, the purchase of a van and a cellular phone. 1486 The board directed Mr. Stimpson to the Transportation Development Plan Group, of which the Iredell County Vocational Workshop is the lead agency. The TDP has a coordinated plan for transpor- tation of the elderly and handicapped in Iredell County, and the county commissioners thought this would be the best avenue for Mr. Stimpson to pursue. NORTH CAROLINA MAGAZINE TO FEATURE IREDELL COUNTY: Mr. Mashburn said he had received informa- tion that the captioned magazine would feature Iredell County in the August 1991 issue. They are asking that the county buy an advertisement in the magazine that particular month. Mr. Mashburn thought this would be a good way to promote the county's new slogan and also to gain statewide acclaim. This is to be placed on the agenda for board action this evening. LEGISLATIVE UPDATE: Mr. Mashburn shared information he has received on the activities of the legislature. The collection remedies for solid waste fee that is to be added to the tax bills is one of the concerns for Iredell County and is still be considered by the legislature. Another concern is that the county be permitted to install a pit burner to burn yard waste. This is also under consideration in Raleigh.

B. Sloan Jr., Chairman; Alice M. Stewart, Vice Chairman; Sara K. Haire; Doug Madison; and Frank Mitchell, were present. All members of the Statesville City Council were present. Mayor Bentley was absent. Chairman Sloan opened the discussion by saying the county commissioners had taken action on use of the hotel/motel tax revenues as follows: 1. Extend the sunset for the travel and tourism by one year. 2. Put a cap on the funds given to travel and tourism at $27,000. 3. Reiterate to the city council that the proceeds from the hotel/motel tax were not to be spent for anything but the travel and tourism. Copies of the contract and the minutes where the travel and tourism funds were appropriated were forwarded to the City Manager by the County Manager to cover these points. Mr. Jim Lawton said from what he read it seemed very clear that the funds were designated for travel and tourism. He personally did not think the funds could be used for the Dogwood Festival or the Project 2000. Chairman Sloan said that was the way he viewed it, and if that is the way were are going to go, then all should go that route. Costi Kutteh inquired if we needed to fund $27,000. He thought maybe it should be considered whether the council wanted to fund these other two projects out of general fund. John Marshall said it was felt that the Dogwood Festival and the Project 2000 were travel and tourism. He said they viewed it that way. Costi Kutteh inauired if the budget had not included these two things (Dogwood Festival and Project 2000), would there have been any objection to that? Alice Stewart said the board has in the past not singled out any special groups to fund. That would be setting a precendent, she said. Costi Kutteh said the council acted on the fact that we weren't very pleased with the way the money was being spent. More and more copies of the brochure are being printed, how many brochures do you need? He said a portion of what is being paid for is going down the drain because people waste the brochures. They had hoped they could put a tighter rein on the money, he said. Rick Dagenhart said he thought the Partnership 2000 was definitely a promotional item. R. B. Sloan said he thought if this is an item that can be funded from that budget, then all should be able to fund from the hotel/motel tax. Rick Dagenhart said he thought it should be limited to promotional activities of Statesville and Iredell County. R. B. Sloan said it was his understanding that the occupancy tax would be to fund a civic center. Two years ago we agreed to allow a portion to be spent for travel and tourism. Jim Lawton said he thought the boards should forget about this and go back to the original agreement and let the City fund these two projects from general fund. Alice Stewart said she wished whatever the budget amount that the City approves, you would supply the county with that information. John Gregory said this was a good example of not meeting together on a regular bais. The Council planned to take action on this at the meeting later on this evening and notify the county manager. The meeting was adjourned at 7:00 p.m. APPROVED: 8/6/91 IREDELL COUNTY BOARD OF COMMISSIONERS MINUTES ail JULY 16, 1991 The Iredell County Board of Commissioners met in briefing session on Tuesday afternoon, July 16, 1991, 4:00 p.m., South Wing Conference Room, Iredell County Government Center, Statesville, NC.

MITCHELL COMMUNITY COLLEGE REQUEST FOR TRANSFER OF BUDGET FUNDS: Dr. Eason, president of MCC, * and Larry J. Williams, Business Manager, were present to make this request. They had $85,000 left |. in the 89-90 budget. They spent $56,000 for paving parking lots. MCC is asking permission from county commissioners to transfer these funds to Capital Outlay to cover the cost of the paving project that was completed in September 1990. This is to comply with the auditor's reauest. The board of trustees approved this transfer in May 1990. The board agreed to place this item on the Consent Agenda for approval. LOWRANCE HOSPITAL FUNDS: Mr. Jimmie V. Houston, chairman of the Lowrance Hospital Funds Committee, came before the board to make a request for additional funds to be spent. His request is for $450,000 for the Mitchell College/Lake Norman Regional Medical Center/Mooresville Schools Consortium for a nursing program, as presented by this group. A request was also made for a $20,000 planning grant to be funded to the Town of Mooresville for planning for the expenditure of the remainder of the funds. Mr. Houston asked for all the remainder of the funds to be transferred to the Town of Mooresville; however, the board members agreed that the funds should remain in Iredel] 4 County until the study has been completed. The board discussed the expiration of the Lowrance Hospital Funds Committee members’ terms, and concurred they should take action on reappointments. Reappointments are to be placed on the agenda at a later time. DISCUSSION OF BUDGET ORDINANCE FOR 1991-92: The board discussed the Statesville Airport funding in Special Appropriations and agreed to leave the funds in fund balance until it is needed. In the matter of the $660,000 funded by Iredel] County Schools, the board had earlier discussed reducing the amount of funds by $660,000; however, it was decided to leave the budget as it presently is. * The budget ordinance, financial plan and capital projects ordinance are to be placed on the Consent Agenda. INCLEMENT WEATHER POLICY ADDITION: Mr. Mashburn apprised the board of a recent power outage at the library. The power was off for some time and the employees were permitted to go home because they were unable to work. The power later came on, and Mr. Norwood called some of the employees who lived nearby to return to work, Others did not return because they had greater distances to travel or could not be reached by telephone. Mr. Mashburn was asking the board for clarification of payment for employees in the event they cannot work because of circumstances beyond their control. He presented a draft proposal for the personnel policy. The board concurred with the draft propo- sal, and it was placed on Consent Agenda. REPORT FROM DESIGN ASSOCIATES OF PROGRESS ON THE RENOVATION OF THE NEW HEALTH DEPARTMENT < BUILDING: Mr. Chuck Goode was present to give the board a progress report on the plans for the renovation of the Kewaunee Building on Highway 21 North, acquired for the health department. Mr. Goode said they hoped to have the plans completed by July 31st. The plans then have to be sent to the Department of Insurance in Raleigh. The mechanical and electrical drawings also have to be sent to the Department of Insurance when they are completed. The site plans have to be sent to the Department of Natural Resources. It takes about 30 days to complete the review. Historically, he said, it takes about five to six weeks. He hopes to get the plans approved in less time that that. They anticipate mid-October for awarding the bid. There are also additional costs not accounted for in the initial estimate. These are: 1.) $80,000 for re-roofing the building. Prior to the purchase of the building, someone was hired to look at the roof and said that a new roof would not be necessary. However, Mr. Goode said after last winter and because of the penetrations that have to be made into the roof, it is recommended that a new roof be put on the building. 2.) Additional costs are estimated because of changes in the Code in January 1991. There is now a requirement for a seismic design on buildings that are new or being remodeled, Mr. Goode said. A structural engineer will cost an estimated $30,000 to $40,000 to make the seismic design for the building. 3.) A sprinkler system is required which will cost $30,000. The previous cost for the renovation was estimated at $1,950,000. With the new additions, it is now estimated to be $2,100,000, an additional $150,000. Mr. Goode was of the opinion that this would be a good time to bid the project. He said construction is fairly slow and he anticipates a number of bidders. The construction time is nine months to one year. Most of the work is inside, so weather conditions will not be a deterrent to the completion of the project. Commissioner Madison inquired about the daily cost of the debt service. Ms. Goodman reported that it is $139. REVALUATION REPORT: Mr. Brent Wesiner, Revaluation Director, reported that the revaluation project is on schedule. Notices are scheduled to go out about December 1st. They will have com- pleted the first pass by the end of August. The board discussed the publicity for the revaluation project. Mrs. Troutman reported they had brochures available to all the public. They presented about 40 programs to various clubs during last revaluation and anticipate doing the same thing this time. It was thought that newspaper and radio coverage would reach the general public better. DAVIDSON-CORNELIUS CIRCUMFERENTIAL TIP #R-2632: Mr. Jerry Lundy and Mr. Carson Fisher agave a report to the board on this project. A letter was to be written by Mr. Fisher in reply to the information received by the county.

RECREATION DEPARTMENT PLANS: Commissioner Mitchell said he had been talking to a member of the Recreation Advisory Board and they would like for the county commissioners to take some favorable action about their recreation plans as soon as possible. Chairman Sloan said this could be placed on the agenda for the next meeting. It is hoped they will have information about grants prior to that time. Mr. Joel Mashburn said he had a discussion with Mr. Benfield, chairman of the recreation advisory board, who said it appears that North Carolina will have funds for recreation grants. Iredell County could receive a part of these funds, which would be a 50/50 match. Indications are that should Iredell County apply, since we have not been a recipient previously, we should be toward the top of the list. There was discussion about using in-kind match instead of monetary match. Mr. Mashburn said it would help to facilitate the plans if the board would endorse the concept of * the plan being suggested. Commissioner Stewart said she would not want to lead the public astray. It is the advisory board's intention to develop these facilities with contributions from the private sector. I may approve the concept, she said, but if they were not able to raise the private contributions, then this board does not intend to spend any money for the parks. Chairman Sloan said he understood that the private financing was a part of the concept. After further discussion, the county manager was asked to draw up a resolution incorporating the board's views on this matter and bring it to the next board meeting for adoption.

Present from the county were: R. B. Sloan, Jr., Chairman Alice M. Stewart, Vice Chairman Sara K. Haire Doug Madison Frank Mitchel] Staff present: Joel Mashburn, County Manager Susan Goodman, Finance Officer Jerry Lundy, Planning Director Alice Fortner, Clerk to the Board Present from the City of Statesville were: Mayor Ralph Bentley Pete Peterson John Gregory ( lle Jap Johnson Costi Kutteh aq Rick Dagenhart Willie Williams Jim Lawton City Staff present: Eddie Gaines, Attorney at Law Pete Connet, City Manager David Currier, City Planning Director Ralph Staley, Finance Officer Nancy Davis, Public Relations Mayor Bentley and Chairman Sloan called the meeting to order and welcomed those in attendance. ABC FUNDS: It was reported by the city manager that the ABC funding discussed at the April 5th retreat in the amount of approximately $80,000 was reauested to be sent to the DARE program; however, Senator Bryan left the bill in with the funds going to the schools. TRAVEL AND TOURISM: It was reported that information on the funds collected from the hotel/motel tax is now coming to the county on a monthly basis. Mr. Connet said the City had funded basically $11,000 to $12,000 for the Travel and Trourism Board with anything else to be funded on a line item basis with a cap of $20,000. The Project 2000 and Dogwood Festival funding have been removed from the hotel/motel tax funds. Commissioner Stewart inauired if the County should go back and change its recommendation on the funding for Travel and Tourism. Mr. Mashburn said that even if the County approved a greater gh amount, they cannot spend more than the City Council approves. There is no requirement for the County to do anything. AIRPORT FUNDING: Mr. Connet discussed the carry-over money unspent from the 90-91 budget. WATER AND SEWER: On water-sewer extensions, Mr. Connet said Statesville would provide water if Statesville has enough volume. LICENSE TAG FEES: The City had decided not to pursue the fees. CONSOLIDATION OF RECREATION DEPARTMENTS, INSPECTIONS AND PLANNING, AND PURCHASING. The finance officers met to discuss purchasing and had made some major purchases together. Because of the data processing departments, it was decided that it would not be feasible to consolidate all purchasing. PARTNERSHIP 2000: Rick Dagenhart inquired about the membership in the Partnership 2000. Chairman Sloan said the only two counties not particpating that he knew of were Rowan and Anson Counties. However, Salisbury is participating. Chairman Sloan said it was worth the time spent to see what they are doing. The boards discussed the lack of progress made since the April 5th meeting in pursuing the goals set forth. Mr. Mashburn said it had been an unusually busy time because of the budaet season. Mr. Peterson said some of the recommendations from the study on water and sewer have been implemented. Commissioner Stewart said water and sewer districts have been discussed. Mr. Mashburn said somebody is going to have to decide whether or not the County is going ahead with the districts or 15u2 to work together on specific projects. A project the County is currently looking into is the old as Hoke subdivision located on south 21. The County is considering this project for an assessment project like the Meadowbrook in south Iredell. The line would be built and turned over to Statesville. The participants would be assessed for their shares. Jim Lawton inquired about Iredell Water Corporation and West Iredell] Water Corporation being brought into a countywide system. Chairman Sloan said it is up to them to decide. The county commissioners stated some of the problems they had encountered before in trying to work with Iredell Water Corporation being turned over to the County. The main objection would be the subscriber- membership does not want to pay additional costs on their water bills. The rates are so low now that they are not getting enough funds to pay for maintenance of the lines, which is beoming a major problem. Rate increases have to be approved by the co-op board. Jim Lawton said the City is now overlapping with Iredell Water Corporation. It was mentioned that a study committee should be formed to study the water consolidation. Costi Kutteh said it would be good to begin with a smaller project and see if the two bodies could work together on that first of all. The south 21 Hoke project was mentioned again. Mr. Lundy said he estimates this will cost between $50,000 to $60,000, of which 100% will be assessed to the property owners. Mayor Bentley reiterated that the City is overlapping with Iredell Water Corporation and it should really be looked at hard. Commissioner Alice Stewart mentioned her involvement with the Catawba River Basin formation at UNC-Charlotte, which will affect the City of Statesville. Mr. Mashburn said the involvement in the water distribution was not an easy matter to get a handle on. RECREATION: Mr. Mashburn reported that the County's recreation advisory board is establishing a different direction for the County's recreation. The county commissioners have met with the advisory board and have been hearing the plans for four separate districts. Commissioner Stewart said the proposal that has been presented is for a private foundation type proposal that they say they will be pursuing to obtain funds. It is not supposed to require any county funds for development. Chairman Sloan said it is supposed to have private investment as well as grants. Mayor Bentley said there was not much need in pursuing recreation until the board of commissioners make a decision on which direction they are going with their rerecration program. Jim Lawton asked if this would not be a good time to combine forces? Chairman Sloan said it is going to take a lot of time with a director working in the communities to make this district proposal work. Jim Lawton said City parks and recreation cost the City $1 million. Chairman Sloan said the philosophies of the City and County recreation departments are different. The County uses a lot of volunteers; their programs are based upon volunteers, while the City has more paid staff. Pete Peterson said he would not like to see the City's recreation programs retrogress. Costi Kutteh said he would like to see if there are any areas the two bodies could work together. Alice Stewart said she thought water and sewer expansions would be a good area. Rick Dagenhart inquired about planning and inspections becoming one department. Mr. Mashburn said the County is now doing all inspections but Statesville's. Statesville has a higher level of inspection service than the county has. For the County to assume the inspections at the level of service the County has would required an additional 14 persons, he said. There would have to be some arrangements made to pay for the additional personnel. Jerry Lundy said the response time is the difference in the level of inspections. Mr. Mashburn said the inspections area would be the most desireable to try to combine. Doug Madison said it would be good to have some contractors and realtors to sit down with representatives from each department to discuss the inspections. Mayor Bentley said it would be a good idea for each board to go back and appoint some committees to look into these areas and meet again six weeks from today.

SHERIFF'S DEPARTMENT - DISCUSSION OF AUXILIARY DEPUTIES: Sheriff Clyde Lloyd was present to discuss the reserve officers at the sheriff's department. There are 17 reserve officers, he said. They are used for back-up, weekends, and at peak times. The only time these reserve officers are covered with insurance is when they are rendering service under a full-time law enforcement officer, Sheriff Lloyd said. After further conversation, Commissioner Mitchell said he would like to go on record supporting the auxiliary deputies. DARE OFFICERS: Sheriff Lloyd said on May 14th the City of Statesville voted to do away with the DARE officer funding. This means they now have two officers covering the entire newly consoli- dated Iredell-Statesville school system. The sheriff said they would be unable to do this with just the two officers. Commissioner Madison said he would make a motion to contact Dr. Register and see if the schools would not fund another DARE officer from the $80,000 ABC funds they are receiving since the funds no longer go to the City and are coming to the consolidated school system. This will be placed on the agenda for the meeting this evening. FEES FOR THE HEALTH DEPARTMENT: A schedule of fees, some of which have been changed, was presented to the board. Commissioner Madison, the representative to the health board, said the board discussed these fees at length and the board was satisfied with the increases. The fee ® schedule is to be placed on consent for this evening's meeting. 7 TRANSPORTATION DEVELOPMENT PLAN: A four-year plan for Transportation Development with the Department of Transportation has been prepared under the direction of the Centralina Council of Governments and with an advisory board from some of the agencies who have transportation available for their clients. Mr. Bill Duston introduced the plan and presented Michael Rose from COG and Mr. Caldwell of DOT, who were present to discuss the plan. Mr. Rose explained there were funds available from the DOT for purchasing and/or renovating vehicles, but a transportation plan must be approved before the funds can be released. The four-year plan is flexible and can be adjusted to meet particular needs as the time period goes along, Mr. Rose said. The lead agency is the Iredell County Vocational Workshop. Mr. Mashburn had to leave the meeting during this presentation. Commissioner Haire asked Ms. Goodman to take over in the absence of Mr. Mashburn. AMBULANCE BILLING COLLECTIONS DEPARTMENT: Mr. Al Upton, Emergency Medical Services Director, ( and Ms. Goodman, Finance Officer, presented a plan with a budget amendment for the establishment of a new Ambulance Billing Collections Department. After discussion the budget amendment was placed on the consent agenda.

Present for the meeting were: R. B. Sloan Jr., Chairman Alice M. Stewart, Vice Chairman Sara K. Haire Doug Madison ! Frank Mitchel] Staff present: Joel Mashburn, County Manager Susan Goodman, Finance Officer Jerry Lundy, Planning Director Joe Ketchie, Tax Collector Carson Fisher, County Engineer Jean Moore, Acting Clerk to the Board CALL TO ORDER: By Chairman Sloan WATERSHED PRESENTATION: Those present who spoke about this matter were: Jerry Lundy, County Planning Director; Larry Hendrix, Soil & Water Conservation Office; and B. K. Barringer, a , Mooresville engineer. Mr. Lundy passed out handouts showing background information of the proposed -o watershed regulations, state maps indicating the proposed classifications, (WS-I, WS-II, WS-III, & WS-IV) and a question and answer summary sheet. Currently Iredell County is on four different maps. The rules pertainina to the proposed regulations change daily and the state office is not answering questions. Of major interest is the classification of the southern end of Iredell County. The Town of Mooresville will be briefed on this matter next week and they will advise us of their chosen course of action. The group was advised by Mr. Lundy that the County should decide something by mid-September because September 30, 1991 is the deadline currently set by the state for a response to be submitted. Mr. Hendrix explained the agricultural standpoint of the proposed regulations. In particular, he discussed best management practices and the proposed fencing around streams. Stating that agriculture would be hit pretty hard by these regulations, Mr. Hendrix offered his assistance to the county in its decisions on the proposed rulings. Commissioner Madison advised that he would like to see the county manager and the planning director develop a less restrictive proposal. Mr. Mashburn, Mr. Lundy, and Mr. Hendrix agreed to have something written up by the mid-September meeting unless word has been received from the state indicating the deadline has been extended. PROPOSED AMENDMENT TO SECTION 308.2 & 311. OF THE IREDELL COUNTY SUBDIVISION ORDINANCE, SUBMITTED BY B. K. BARRINGER, JR.: Mr. Barringer stated his reasoning behind changing this ordinance was rather complex; however, general suitability is what he is trying to achieve. Accom- panying Mr. Barringer was Tony Jacobs, an area soil scientist. Kelly Sheeks, County Sanitarian, stated the Planning Board seemed satisfied with the product that was being offered currently by the sanitarians and that they were evaluating properties and trying to give to the Planning Board a subdivision plat that is developable. Mr. Sheeks further & stated that the health department had to be careful in what they help develop because of liability. e. In reference to "ghost permits," Mr. Sheeks stated that Mecklenburg and Lincoln County estimate that they have to go back on 50% of their “ghost permits," and that his office did not have time to do this. Mr. Lundy stated the sentence or statement offered in the current ordinance offered protection to whomever buys a lot. If a disclaimer is placed on plats, a potential owner will probably not see the plat until they have already bought the lot. Commissioner Stewart asked why the Planning Board did not agree to change the ordinance and Mr. Lundy stated it was for buyer protection. Mr. Barringer stated he felt it was because it was taken up by the Planning Board one night when it was too late for adequate discussion. Commissioner Madison inquired about the possibility of issuing two-tiered permits and he stated he felt this could be done procedurally. T. M. HONEYCUTT, JR., PROPERTY, CASE #9106-8: Mr. Lundy explained this request and showed the relevant area on county maps. PROPOSED AMENDMENT TO SECTION 67.45 (i)(2) OF THE IREDELL COUNTY ZONING ORDINANCE: Submitted by Dennis C. Sutton. Mr. Sutton is reauesting a modification to the zoning ordinance.

FORECLOSURE UPDATE FROM JOE KETCHIE: The tax collector informed the group that two properties were now in the possession of the County. One lot is located in the Belmont section of town off Eastside Drive and the other lot is on Fifth Street at the corner of Winston Street. The Fifth Street property has a house on it; however, it has been condemned by the City and they would like to have it torn down, Mr. Ketchie stated the County has several options, e.g., sell back to owners, designate as public areas, or donate to an organization such as Habitat for Humanities. Mr. Ketchie requested the commissioners’ directive on the proper disposal of the two properties. FINAL PLAT OF MR.

BARRINGER, JR.: Mr. Lundy explained this request and advised that on July 10, 1991 the Planning Board unanimously recommended denial of the request. Mr. B. K. Barringer would like to revise Subdivision Ordinance 308.2: (Review by Health Department and Other Aoencies) by deleting the last sentence, i.e., “If lots are proposed to be receiving septic tanks as the means of solid waste disposal, a report from the Iredell County Health Department stating the general suitability of soils in the area must be received by the Subdivision Administrator prior to the preliminary plat approval." A sentence with a disclaimer would be inser- ted at this point. Mr. Barringer states this is allowed by the North Carolina Reguiations.

PROPOSED AMENDMENT TO SECTION 67.45 (i) (2) OF THE IREDELL COUNTY ZONING ORDINANCE: Submitted by Dennis C. Sutton. This proposed amendment which currently reads: Any mobile home park created after June 19, 1990 shall be located no closer than one-half (1/2) mile (as measured by the shortest straight line connecting the closest portions of the lots containing the two (2) mobile home parks) to each other; to read: Any mobile home park created after June 19, 1990 shall be located no closer than three/fourths (3/4)mile (as measured by public road connecting the closest portions of the lots containing the two (2) mobile home parks) to each other. Mr. Bedford Cannon, Attorney for Mr. Sutton, advised that his client has purchased a forty (40) acre tract which he plans to live on as well as have a mobile home park. Cannon added that if the 3/4 of a mile is passed it will be the strictest standard on record. Around 50 people were in the audience in reference to this proposed amendment. Those speaking were: Fred Sutton: (Opponent) Against trailer parks. Felt the people in the area needed to get together and decide what they want in the area. (Mr. Sutton spoke two other times during the evening.) Guy Hartsell: (Opponent) Speaking on behalf of his mother, who lives in the area. Against this amendment because property values might be lowered. Also, his mother expresses fears about safety, should a mobile home park be placed in the area. Kenneth Harpe: (Opponent) Property values might decrease. Lee Ellis: (Opponent) Mentioned he had previously sent a letter expressing his opposition. Frank Woods: (Opponent) Felt the zoning that they have now is not perfect and stated the sheriff's department is already out there all the time. "The county should not make a mistake in trying to rectify Mr. Sutton's mistake.’ Wayne Waugh: (Opponent) His farm has been in the family over 100 years. He is satisfied with the regulations as they already are. Jerry Campbell: (Opponent) "This will definitely kill my whole place. I don't see why anyone would want to live right under a major power line," James Pestlin: (Opponent) Stated there was lots of property damage around rental property. Kathy Bowman: (Opponent) Has lived across the road from the property for 15 years. Patty Mattiani: (Opponent) Lived in the area for nine years. Bill Stamey: (Opponent) Stated that, “as the crow flies we have three of the worst trailer parks in the county." Doesn't want anymore. Bedford Cannon: Attorney for Mr. Sutton stated this was not a forum to express the merits or demerits of a mobile home park. The issue is whether Mr. Sutton is going to have a chance to have a park. Mr. Sutton is going to live on adjacent property to the proposed park. The key to any mobile home park is good management. Frank Woods: (Opponent) Too close to his home. Guy Hartsell: (Opponent) Expressed concern over management if Mr. Sutton decided to sell or move on somewhere else. Jamie Stimson: (Opponent) There should be some type of provision against building under a high voltage power line. Joyce Pestlin: (Opponent) Asked commissioners if they would like to live near a trailer park, Stated in 1989 she had to buy a piece of land adjacent to her to prevent a trailer park from being built. Wayne Waugh: (Opponent) Stated he didn't want to see his side of the county becoming a mobile home park. Steve Stewart: (Opponent) "We don't want the trailer park."

He stated that when an area is overpopulated it is less valuable. He has examined the zoning regulations and R-20 is what they want. Commissioner Sloan advised that he had received several phone calls from citizens reauesting that their names be withdrawn from the petition. Mr. Davidson indicated that around 82% of the people are in favor of the rezoning and about 20 people have indicated a desire to have their names removed from the petition. Commissioner Stewart indicated that most of the people that she had talked to had been led to believe the petition was to stop a mobile home park from being located on the Charlie Stewart (no relation to Commissioner Stewart) property. Mrs. Stewart further indicated that some of the resi- dents feel misguided. Mr. Davidson said there has been only one petition, and he proceeded to read the petition in its entirety. (At this time members of the audience spoke about the rezoning. ) Mr. Kermit Templeton: (Opponent) Stated he lives on Hickory Road and that due to the poten- tial health needs that he and his wife might have in the future that there might be a possibility they would need a relative to help look after them. The relative would not be able to place a mobile home on his property should the rezoning occur. Mr. Templeton stated he would either like to be “equal with his adjacent owner or be excluded.' Commissioner Stewart then asked Mr. Templeton for a clarification of his statement and whether or not he wanted to be excluded from the petition. Mr. Templeton said yes. J. D. Benfield: (Opponent) Concurred with Mr. Templeton in that his future needs were unknown at this time. it would be good to be able to locate a mobile home on his private property if it ever became necessary. Dr. Donna Wike: Indicated that she and her husband signed the petition against any trailer parks coming into the area, and reiterated that over 80% of the people were requesting the rezoning. Dr. Wike asked if there was anything between RA and R-20 and Mr. Lundy responded that there was nothing at this time. Asked that if the property was zoned R-20 could someone come back to the Commissioner Sloan responded that it would take a change dded that a person cannot put one mobile home in R-20 Gene McHargue: commissioners and apply for a mobile home? in the R-20 zoning and Commissioner Stewart a zoning.

Leslie Davidson: (Proponent) Indicated that she was not an active participant in the petitioning; however, she doesn't feel anyone was intentionally misled. The property in the area will deteriorate if there is more saturation of mobile homes. Bob Hedrick: (Proponent) Indicated that when he signed the petition that was his acknowledge- ment to have the rezoning done. MOTION from Commissioner Madison to table this matter and ask Mr. Lundy to confirm with the property owners their position and identify them on a map. Mr. Lundy stated that he and his staff would look at the petition and bring it back to the meeting on September 17th.

APPEARANCE BY THE RECREATION ADVISORY COMMITTEE: Mr. Bill Benfield, chairman of the recreation advisory committee, came before the group and gave some history pertaining to the recreation department. Commissioner Sloan advised that it was his understanding that the potential consolida- tion of the City/County recreation departments was dead at this time. Mr. Benfield stated that around July 11, 1991 the four parks proposal had been submitted to the County. The parks would be situated in the north, south, east and west sectors of the county. Funding would be derived from: $20,000 Matching grants $20,000 Recreation Maintenance Funds $10,000 Recreation Supply Funds $10,000 Communities to Raise this Amount $60,000 TOTAL When this is accomplished a grant from the Land & Water Conservation Grant to match the $60,000 would be requested. Normally November is the deadline for grants to be requested from the conservation grant, and Mr. Benfield is seeking permission from the County to proceed with the four-park system. Also the recreation advisory committee requests that al] unspent budget funds be carried over to the next fiscal year to be placed into capital outlay. Question from Commissioner Mitchell as to whether any tracts of land had been suggested at the present time. Mr. Benfield responded that as soon as they are given the go-ahead he feels certain they will get some response. Commissioner Madison inquired about funding amounts for the parks and Mr. Benfield stated that some parks might cost more than others simply because of geographics. Godfrey Williams, a member of the recreation advisory committee, stated that a reliable esti- mate would be $400,000. Commissioner Stewart inquired about the legality of rolling over the budget money and the finance officer, Susan Goodman, stated it could legally be done. Commissioner Madison stated, however, that the County couldn't commit five years in advance and Ms. Goodman concurred. Commissioner Stewart asked if the recreation department had any funds left over from FY 90-91 and Ms. Goodman stated that around $5,000 might have been turned back in. Mr. Mashburn stated there would never be more than three percent left in the budget. MOTION from Commissioner Madison to authorize the recreation advisory committee to develop the four-park system and give the necessary funding of $55,000 to pursue. Commissioner Sloan added the roll-over of any lapsed funds from FY 91-92 budget to the next year's budget. VOTING: Ayes - 5; Nays - 0. GARBAGE DISPOSAL SERVICE OF CATAWBA COUNTY, INC.

He said the level of service will be increased for the county but would be decreased for the city. He said they may be able to stop some complaints, but would not be able to stop them all. Mr. Mashburn inauired if the fees will generate enough revenue to take care of the cost of the department.

Does the City of Statesville have some new arades the county does not have? he asked. Mr. Reavis said the City employees hold more certificates. The city and county's steps are not the same.

The replace- ment costs will then become the County's responsibility. Chairman Sloan asked what will be the final step before the board is asked to vote.

Chairman Sloan asked about the hand-held units for puttina information on-line on the computer. Commissioner Madison asked if they are still planning for the January 1st conversion date. Mr. Reavis replied, Yes. Mr. Mashburn said a budget for the total department is needed and should be based on projec- tions for personnel. He also said that they should leave the fire inspections as it now is.

The fire marshall's office inspects schools every four months. He said 1989 was the worst year for fires. There were ten fatalities in Iredel] County that year. Most were due to smoke inhalation.

SOCIAL SERVICES, IMPOSITION OF SANCTIONS: Mr. Don Wall, Director of Social Services, and two staff members came before the board to discuss a recent $36,000 sanction the State Department of Social Services has placed on the county's DSS office. Mr. Wall explained the situation has arisen because of the Alexander vs. Flagherty court case that was filed in 1974, which requires oreater expediency in resolving cases that are filed with the DSS department. Mr. Wall said last year Iredell County was monitored and made the best score of any county the size of Iredell. However this year's sanctions are because of the lower score, which came about, he believed, because of inaccurate instructions from the state on how to process certain DSS Claims. The department was found nealigent because of not processing a certain form that was unknown to be reauired by the local agency. However, when the department was checked for accuracy, it was stated that these reports should be in the file. A question was raised about who would receive the money from the sanctions. Mr. Wall said this would be distributed to the Low Income Energy Proaram. Commissioner Alice Stewart, member of the DSS state and local boards, said the money collected for the sanctions had to be 100% county money, It could not come from the present DSS budget.

REGULAR SESSION MOTION from Commissioner Madison to adopt the followina resolution: 4 od RESOLUTION REGARDING A PROPOSED PURCHASE AND RENOVATION AND FINANCING ARRANGEMENT OF A HEALTH DEPARTMENT WHEREAS, the Iredell County Board of Commissioners desires to purchase a buildina and renovate it for a health department to better serve the citizens of Iredell County: and WHEREAS, the Iredell County Board of Commissioners desires to finance the construction of the necessary facility for the health department by installment contract with a financial institution; and WHEREAS, the Local Government Commission of the North Carolina Department of the State Treasurer requires that the Iredel] County Board of Commissioners makes certain findinas before the commission can grant approval to the County's application for approval of this particular installment contract as authorized under North Carolina General Statute 160A, Article 3, Section 20: THEREFORE, BE IT RESOLVED that the Board of Commissioners of Iredel] County, North Carolina, in a Regular Meetina of the Board, finds as follows: 1. The proposed project is the purchase and renovation of a building to function as a health department. The proposed method of financina is a fifteen-year installment contract between the County and a financial institution of the full amount of the purchase price plus renovations. 2. The purchase and renovation of the building to be used as a health department is necessary because the existing health department building, which was built in 1955, lacks sufficient space to efficiently and professionally provide services to the citizens of Iredell County. The overcrowded facilities at the existing building have forced the County to lease space at two additional in-town locations. Upon completion of the new facility, all health department services wil] be offered at one location. 3. The proposed construction of the health department is $3,730,000, which includes the purchase of the building and land, desian, and renovations. The County will aive a Deed of Trust to the financial institution to fully collateralize the installment-purchase contract and no deficiency judgment will be allowed in the event the County defaults on payments. Using this method of finan- cing, there will be absolutely no pledge of the County's taxing authority. 4, The County Attorney has rendered an Opinion that the project is authorized by law and is a purpose for which public funds may be expended pursuant to the Constitution and laws of North Carolina at this time. 5. Because of the expeditious nature of this project and the relatively small nature of the project cost, the proposed installment contract is preferable to alternative financina mechanisms as follows: a. Current appropriations in the County's Operatina Budget are inadequate to fund this project. b. Currently the fund balance available for appropriation is not sufficient to fund the project. c. The County does not retire enough debt annually to fund this project using the "two-thirds limitations." d. The proposed financing is preferable to a General Obligation Bond because the costs of authorizina and issuina bonds would be greater than those associated with the installment contract. e. Revenue Bonds are inappropriate for this project. 6. After receivina competitive bids for financing the project the board of commissioners has chosen, upon Local Government Commission approval, to finance the total cost of the project with First Union National Rank for fifteen years at 6.71% interest. The total cost of the financing agreement is $5,780,200, including principal and interest. The interest rate compares favorably to interest rates of recent general obligation bond issues. 7. Examination of the audited financial statements for the past three fiscal years of Iredell County will show that the County's debt management policies are in strict compliance with the North Carolina law. 8. No increase in the property tax rate will be necessary to raise sums to fall under this contract in each fiscal year during the term of the contract. Funding for the debt service payments will be through annual appropriation in the operatina budget for the General Fund. 9. The County is neither in default nor has it ever been in default in meetino its debt service obliaations. 10. The County solicited proposals from five local financial institutions to ensure the County was receiving the most favorable terms and interest rates. 11, The Board of County Commissioners directs the finance officer to file 8an application with the Local Government Commission for the project as described, This, the 15th day of October, 1991, IREDELL COUNTY BOARD OF COMMISSIONERS s/R.

VOTING: Ayes - 4: Nays - 0. MOTION from Commissioner Mitchell to return to reaular session. VOTING: Ayes - 4; Nays - 0. Chairman Sloan made the following remarks: I have a statement to make. I am attemptina to anticipate some of your auestions. First, as you are aware, this is a called meeting of the Iredell County Board of Commissioners tonight. Mrs. Stewart, who is not here, had attempted to schedule her time with her parents in Virginia and attend a weddina this weekend and this came up, so she is not with us toniaht. I hope that explains her absence. Next, an item that seemed to receive auite a bit of coverage is a letter I received from Cecil Cook in which he reauested that we allow him to attend tonight's meetina. If his physical condition would not allow him to attend this meetina, he further reauested that we schedule this meetina at a later time. I spoke with Mr. Cook yesterday in an effort to ascertain the basis for his reouest. My understandina of our discussion is he felt he should be here to defend his character. After determining that was the basis for his request, I informed him that we would be unable to honor his request. This decision was based on the followina: First we would not be addressina the performance of any individual. We would not be attemptina to determine quilt or innocence of any individual. I further felt that it was imperative for us, the county commissioners, to aet toaether to determine what action this board should pursue, and thus did not feel it was in the county's best interest to delay the meetina. So you can take any one of those three as the reason he was not in attendance. The Constitution provides that each county has a sheriff who is elected by the people. The General Statutes (153A-103) provides that the sheriff has the exclusive authority to hire, fire, and supervise his employees. The primary purpose of this meetina toniaht with the sheriff was to discuss with him the leaal consequences, if any, of any activity or inactivity in the sheriff's department. The sheriff represented to us that he was satisfied that he had insufficient evidence 1540 that a crime had been committed to justify charaina anybody.

BALER PLANS: The staff engineer, Carson Fisher, led the discussion by talking about the plans thus far in the development of the baler facility. The grading and site work contract, which was let to Gilbert has now been completed. The water and sewer contract, also let to Gilbert, lacks about two weeks' construction time on the sewer line. The roadway paving contract, let to Ferebee in Charlotte, has about 30% to 40% of the roadway paved. It should be completed in the next two weeks. The baler building for maintenance is now in the final design stage. It is divided up as general contract, electrical, plumbing, and HVAC. It should be ready for occupancy in early October 1992, provisional upon the kind of winter that we will have. The project will be ready to advertise for bids the middle of November with the bid award occurring the middle of December, 30 days later. The landfill supervisor, Mr. Ron Weatherman, said they had two cells to finish and had about eight to nine months of fill at the present site. Mr. Lundy discussed the situation of the Highway 90 landfill. Instead of approximatley 600 c.y. estimated, there is now estimated about 3,000 c.y. of solid waste that the state will require moving. This represents about three days' solid waste accumulation for the county.

Staff said they had discussed this with the State officials and it was determined that the "fluff" would not be suitable covering for the landfill. Fluff consists of non-metallic parts of an automobile, foam rubber, rubber mats, and wiring. Chairman Sloan asked staff for a recommendation on this question. It is believed by staff that the "fluff" cannot be handled with any less moisture content than is presently there. There was a discussion on whether or not an exception could be made for one particular company who has an excessive amount of solid waste. Mr. Pope cited a certain General Statute that sets forth a category for property that is used exclusively for recycling or in the resource recovery business. ing the board wants to have an incentive for recycling, 1 category for recycling type industries that would be a 25% reduction in solid waste, which is $18.00 per ton. Mr. Madison suggested that staff craft a document giving exception of 25% for certain businesses that are in the resource recovery or recycling industry when certain percentage of that waste is merely water and when the addition of that water helps reduce the county's expense in handling the waste. This proposal would amend the existing ordinance dated October 1, 1991, and would include those companies that have a certificate from state for operation of recycling business. s matter until the November 19th meeting.
