Office Building, Lillington, North Carolina, with the following
members present: Lloyd G. Stewart, M. H. Brock, Bill Shaw,
Rudy Collins, and Chairman Jesse Alphin presiding. Vanessa G.
Young, Assistant Clerk to the Board, and Edward H. McCormick,
County Attorney, were also present.
Chairman Jesse Alphin called the meeting to order at 9:20 a.m.
Representative Bob Etheridge led the morning prayer.
The minutes from the Harnett County Board of Commissioners meet-
ing of April 21, 1981, were approved as read.
Bob Etheridge, Representative with the North Carolina House,
appeared before the Board and discussed legislative matters.
Mr. David Hall, a member of the North Carolina Wildlife
federation, appeared before the Board and reiterated his
request, as presented to the Board at its meeting of April 21,
1981, that the Commissioners adopt a resolution recommending to
the Harnett County Legislature Delegation of the 1981 North
Carolina General Assembly that the fox is to be managed by the
North Carolina Wildlife Resources Commission in pursuant to
G. S. 113 -291.4 and that legislation be enacted to enable the
North Carolina Wildlife Resources to manage the fox in accordance
with sound biological principles. Mr. Hall explained to the
Board that it was too late to introduce any new bills but
House Bill 713 has already been passed by the House and intro-
duced to the Senate pertaining to the regulation of fox harvest-
ing in Wake County. Mr. Hall continued to explain that this
bill could be amended to include Harnett County.
Chairman Jesse Alphin thanked Mr. Hall for his interest in the
fox laws and asked Representative Bob Etheridge if he would
like to comment.
Mr. Etheridge stated that at this time, the General Assembly has
not passed any new bills concerning the harvesting of the fox.
Mr. Etheridge continued to say that the Wildlife Commission is
basically self- sustaining, but they are running short of funding
and would probably have to request additional state money for
its operation. He explained that before the Wildlife Commission
could manage the fox in a county, it would have to do a study
which would cost approximately $5,000 to $7,000 per county.
Mr. Etheridge stated that he did not think the Wildlife Commis-
sion would have the extra funds needed to conduct a study of
this type; therefore, requiring money from the General Asssembly
to do the study.
The Board thanked Mr. Etheridge for coming before the Board and
informing them on current legislature and also for his comments
pertaining to the harvesting of the fox.
Don Dupree, District Engineer with the North Carolina Department
of Transportation, appeared before the Board to discuss road
matters and situations in Harnett County.
At the Harnett County Board of Commissioners meeting of April 21
1981, Glenn Johnson appeared before the Board and presented a
proposal for Future Cablevision of North Carolina, Inc., to
provide cable television services to certain sections of Harnett
County. At that meeting, the Board appointed a committee con-
sisting of the Commissioners and representatives from each of
the municipalities to study this proposal. The Committee met
on Friday, May 1, 1981, to review the proposal, and Mr. Dallas
Pope was designated by the Committee to report is recommendation
back to the Board. Mr. Dallas Pope appeared before the Board
and informed the Commissioners that the Committee had several
questions concerning the proposal from Future Cablevision and
requested that the Committee be allowed 30 to 45 days to conduct
a thorough evaluation of the proposal and then report its
recommendation back to the Board. Commissioner Collins made a
motion that the Board accent the committee's recommendation and
allow them 30 to 45 days to make a comprehensive study of the
proposal. Commissioner Shaw seconded the motion and it carried.
Commissioner Brock made a motion that at the next meeting of
the cablevision committee that it be and it is hereby authorized
to reorganize itself to include fewer members. Commissioner
Collins seconded the motion and it carried.
