REPORT RE: Dallas Pope, Assistant County Manager, informed the Board that the North Carolina
GEN. LIBILITY $ Association of County Commissioners has created a General Liability and Property
PROPERTY INS. Insurance Self- Insurance Pool for the counties in the State, which is to be adminis-
tered by PENCO and Fred S. James Companies. This program was created as a result of
counties having difficulty in obtaining affordable liability coverage. Last year,
Harnett County was one of the more fortunate counties which obtained public liability
insurance through Nationwide at a reasonable costs. However our former insurance
company had notified the County that it was not going to be able to renew our public
liability coverage and Nationwide was the only insurance company that would provide us
coverage. Following a discussion, it was the decision of the Board to keep our cover-
age with Nationwide this year rather than go with the Self- Insurance pool.
BUDGET AMEND. Mr. Pope, Assistant County Manager, appeared before the Board and presented for the
SPECIAL APPRO. Commissioners consideration a budget amendment to the Special Appropriations, Code
10- 8700 -111, increasing this code by $3,000. Mr. Pope explained that this request
was necessary because sufficient funds were not appropriated in the Budget for the
F.Y. 1985 -86 for the Nutrition Program. Commissioner Collins made a motion that the
budget amendment as presented be approved; Commissioner Stewart seconded the motion
and it carried with a unanimous vote.
BUDGET AMEND.
Commissioner Rudy Collins made a motion that Code 8700 -109, be increased by $2,000,782,
transferring these funds from the Capital Reserve Fund, for the Area III School;
Commissioner Stewart seconded the motion and it carried with a unanimous vote.
