Pope explained that a resolution was presented to the Board of
Commissioners at its meeting of September 15, 1986, by the Greater
Buies Creek Association proposing to establish boundaries for the area
of Buies Creek map and to name the streets and roads within that
community area. He continued to explain that the Association has
worked with the community in arriving at the proposed names of the
streets and the Association has approved the street names. This
resolution was forwarded to the Planning Board to ensure that the
proposal was consistent with the County's overall plan to name the
streets and roads within the County. The Planning Board had reviewed
the proposal as submitted by the Greater Buies Creek Area and found it
to be compatible with the County's overall plan. Mr. Pope continued
to explain that in accordance with the General Statutes, the public
hearing tonight has been called to obtain public comments positive or
negative to accept and approve the names of the streets and roads in
the Buies Creek Community as designated by the Greater Buies Creek
Association.
Vice - Chairman Stewart opened the hearing for public comment, positive
or negative, to the naming of the streets in the Buies Creek area and
asked that any person present who would like to be heard to appear
before the Board at this time.
Leonore Tuck, President of the Greater Buies Creek Association,
addressed the Board and urged them to accept the names of the streets
and roads in the Buies Creek area as designated by the Greater Buies
Creek Association. Mrs. Tuck stated that the Association has met and
worked with the Community of Buies Creek in arriving at these street
names and the proposed names have been officially approved by the
Greater Buies Creek Association. She continued to state that the
Association is not only trying to preserve the Village of Buies Creek
but also trying to safeguard the community in which they live by
naming the streets and thereafter numbering the streets for the
orderly identification of homes that will secure the safety of our
community. Mrs. Tuck expressed her hope that the Board would act
favorably upon this request.
Bob King, Resident of Buies Creek, appeared before the Board and
expressed his support of the Greater Buies Creek Association in their
efforts to name the streets and roads in the Village of Buies Creek
and request that the Board approve their request.
Willard Swiers, Resident of Buies Creek, appeared before the Board and
stated that the Greater Buies Creek Association has been working to
make their community a little bit more cohesive group and in so doing
have set a tentative boundary which is not, of course, a civil
boundary but a community boundary. He continued to explained that
they are also in the process of beautifying that area. Dr. Swiers
stated that once the streets are named, plans are to seek help in
order to set up a numbering system whereby properties can be numbered
and more easily located. He explained that for over a period of six
months they have worked on this project, talking to possibly every
person in that area, asking for their input and what concerns they
might have. We were not always in agreement, he explained, but we
present these street names to you now as the recommendation of the
Association and ask that you designate them in order that they might
go on record as presented.

this piece of equipment, which was $33,000. Mr. Pope advised the
Board that this was an old piece of equipment and did not feel it
would be economically feasible to repair the dozer. He continued to
explained that the breakdown of this piece of equipment had placed the
operations of the Anderson Creek Landfill in an emergency status
because there was not a piece of equipment located at the site to
handle the covering of the debris and the cost to rent a crawler
tractor would be $5,000 a month. Mr. Pope stated that because of the
emergency nature of this matter, the County had negotiated a price
with North Carolina Equipment Company for a 1986 Model TD -15C
International Crawler Tractor at the price of $105,000 with the
Trade -in price of $25,000 for the Old TD -15 for a net cost of $80,000
for the new piece of equipment. Mr. Pope stated that he had
approached Southern National Leasing Corporation of Charlotte, North
Carolina, concerning the financing of the crawler tractor and request
the Board to adopt the following resolution authorizing the County to
proceed with the purchase of the International TD -15 Bulldozer from

execute the necessary documents with Southern National Leasing for the

on the activities for the Health Department for the month of
September, 1986, and a copy of the report on the activities of
the Inspections report for the month of September.
Dallas H. Pope, County Manager, appeared before the Board and
explained that the Harnett Productions Enterprises during the
short session of the Legislature was allocated an additional 28
ADAP (Adult Developmental Activity Program) slots. He explained
that this program would be a little different from the present
workshop program because it would focus more toward educational
development rather than production. Mr. Pope continued to state
Harnett Production Enterprises has individuals who have been on a
waiting list for over a year to participate in the programs at
the sheltered workshop, which illustrates that there is a great
need for these additional slots. He explained that in order for
Harnett Production Enterprises to implement this new program; a
facility, equipment, and transportation was needed. Mr. Pope
then recognized Walter Weeks, Habilitation Director with
Lee - Harnett Mental Health to further explain the program and what
action had been taken toward its implementation. Mr. Weeks
stated that as Mr. Pope had explained 28 additional ADAP slots
had been allocated to Harnett County and the State had provided
funding in the amount of $229 per month per person which would be
just enough funds to pay for the staff, the supplies, and
insurance costs associated with the operation of this program.
He continued to explain that the present Harnett Production
Enterprise facility is filled to the maximum and will not be able
to accommodate the additional 28 ADAP slots. He stated that the
Board of Education has agreed for Harnett Production Enterprises
to use the Dunn Middle School Agricultural Classroom and have
offered the use of their desks and furniture for this program.
Now, he explained, what Harnett Production Enterprises
desperately needs is two 15 passenger vans to transport these
individuals. Once the program is operational, he explained there
is money in the budget to operate the vans. Mr. Weeks
respectfully requested the Board's consideration to purchase the
two vans. Dallas Pope, County Manager, presented to the Board
for consideration a budget amendment to Code 10- 7900 -093, Harnett
Production Enterprises, in the amount of $23,000 to purchase two
15 passenger vans for transporting the ADAP participants.
Following a discussion, Commissioner Collins made a motion that
budget amendment as presented by Mr. Pope be approved;
Commissioner Hudson seconded the motion and it carried with a
unanimous vote.

crawler- tractor and the Board needed to take action on the resolution in
