Cooperative Extension requested permission to accept $2,500 from a Harnett County Advisory Board member for the purpose of continuing the employment of the Parents As Teachers Coordinator position and the operation ofthe PAT Program from June 17tl! thru June 30tl! for as much time until funds are exhausted. 9. Finance Officer requested approval of the revised Travel Policy. 10. Finance Officer requested approval of the revised Leave Policy. 11. Finance Office, on behalf of EMS, requested adoption of resolution authorizing disposition of surplus ambulance chassis by the Harnett County EMS Department by private bid. The transmission is not working in the ambulance and it would cost approximately $800 to tow it back to Harnett County from the NC Mountains however there is an interested party that would like to purchase the chassis as is and where it is. (Attachment 4) Chairman Miller opened the floor for informal comments by the public, allowing up to 3 minutes for each presentation up to 30 minutes. 111 Paul Long of601 Old Buies Creek Road in Angier said we have a good county manager and he doesn't appreciate that we have two commissioners trying to tell him what to do. Mr. Long said the NC Senate sold out to the Locksmith Association and now school maintenance workers can no longer make keys but must hire someone else to make them. Mr. Long said HB 1108 was unconstitutional under the 14tl! amendment of the US Constitution and urged the Board to hire a constitutional lawyer and sue them to stop it. Mr. Long said we need money to run our schools, we can't operate this county without taxes, and said they need to do like Wake County who passed a good budget today. Mr. Long said we have commissioners who are working for special interest and are trying to form a totalitarian democracy. Last, Mr. Long said we need to have harmony on this Board. 111 Daniel Glover of Old Stage Road in Coats said the Constitutional Caucus ofNorth Carolina read his article regarding HB 1108. Mr. Glover said the group reviewed the bill and feels like the rights of the people of Harnett County were unjust. He reported that the Constitutional Caucus sent a letter to Representative David Lewis and then read what he said was part ofthe letter as well as Representative Lewis's response. Mr. Glover said the County Board and School Board do not have a constitutional right; it is administered by the State, however the people do. Mr. Glover said David Lewis failed us and asked the Board to take legal action against HB 1108 and get it stopped. • Sharlene Jones of Old Buies Creek Road asked the Board to bump the tax rate up to at least 5.5 cents because there are things we need in this County and we are not going to have the money to do them. She said someone had suggested cutting the employee's salaries. Mrs. Jones said in order to get more money for the County we should raise the rec fees and capacity fees on builders. She said she was upset about HB 1108 and hoped June 16, 2014, Regular Meeting Minutes Harnett County Board of Commissioners Page 6 of 12 it could be turned over so all board members have the right to vote. Mrs. Jones also said that Hitler never broke the law but he got someone else to break the law for him. She said there has been so much ugly done in this board room and at the State that she is ashamed to say she is a North Carolinian. 111 Pastor Felton Smith, from the Riverside Community, said politicians are not doing what they are supposed to do; they are not going to change their minds so it is time for citizens of this county and the state to get into the communities and educate the people about the tyrants in office now. Pastor Smith said people need to get involved as it is our right to be righteously represented and the people have the power. There were no appointments. Mark Locklear, Director of Planning Services, petitioned the board for a public hearing on a proposed zoning change: Landowner/Applicant: Linda Marie Natole; 1.0 +/-acres; From RA- 20R to Commercial Intersection of Elliott Bridge Road and Bethel Baptist Road; Anderson Creek Township. Mr. Locklear noted the site is currently occupied by a building that has served many different uses and surrounding land uses include vacant farmland, low density residential, and a convenient store. Services available are public water and a private septic tank on site for the current structure. Mr. Locklear noted this all came about due to an existing violation of the U.D.O. for this property since a private club was being operated out of the existing structure but asked commissioners to please keep that separate as it is still being investigated and shouldn't be considered for this case tonight. Mr. Locklear reported that the Harnett County Planning Board, at their June 2, 2014 meeting, voted unanimously to recommend approval of this rezoning application based on the existing zoning compatibility to the surrounding properties. At the initial May meeting; when the applicant requested that the remainder of the hearing & vote be tabled until June 2 because there were only 3 members present, there were a few citizens that spoke in opposition, but their issues were related to the illegal business and not the actual rezoning of the land. Mr. Locklear stated if this rezoning application is approved, any business would be required to go through the development review process in order to become compliant. Mr. Locklear reported staff evaluation as: The IMP ACT to the adjacent property owners and the surrounding community is reasonable, and the benefits of the rezoning outweigh any potential inconvenience or harm to the community. REASONING: The impact to the surrounding community is reasonable, as the requested zoning district is similar in nature to neighboring zoning. The requested zoning district is NOT COMPATIBLE with the existing Land Use Classification. REASONING: The requested zoning to Commercial is not compatible with the Land Use Classification Medium Density Residential. Medium Density Residential is meant to encourage stick built and manufactured residential development. However, since this parcel has sufficient access to 2 roads, as well as its location to existing commercially zoned property, staff would recommend that during a Land Use Plan update this area be revised to comply with existing uses. The proposal does ENHANCE or maintain the public health, safety and general welfare. REASONING: The requested zoning to Commercial would maintain the June 16, 2014, Regular Meeting Minutes Harnett County Board of Commissioners Page 7 of 12 public health, safety and general welfare due to the existing co:rrunercial growth pattern in the area. This request is NOT for a SMALL SCALE REZONING and should not be evaluated for reasonableness. REASONING: The proposed rezoning to Commercial is adjacent to Commercial zoned land and thus the application does not need to be considered a Small Scale Rezoning. Suggested Statement-of-Consistency: Staff concludes that the requested rezoning to Commercial is compatible with neighboring zoning districts and would not have an unreasonable impact on the surrounding community and will enhance the public health, safety, and general welfare for the reasons stated in the evaluation. It is recommended that this rezoning request be approved. Mr. Locklear noted the applicant was present. Commissioners asked what the property was going to be. Mr. Locklear said it would be best to ask the applicant but right now it is being investigated as a private club but was previously a repair shop. Mr. Locklear said if the rezoning is approved then it would be permitted by right for any use for commercial that is approved and permitted in commercial zoning. Mr. Locklear said if the property stayed as currently zoned, RA-20R, then uses as a private club or motorcycle repair shop could be obtained through a conditional use permit. Mr. Locklear said any commercial business in Harnett County goes through the Development Review Board (DRP) which is a board of county staff that looks at all the different issues they may have pertaining to their departments. He clarified that the applicant must still go through the permitting process for a conditional use application. He believes the intention of the owner in obtaining commercial zoning is to be able to move anything she would like on the site going forward. Mr. Locklear said the site was previously grandfathered in as a repair center but once the uses changed they must become compliant. Chairman Miller called to order a public hearing on the matter and opened the meeting for comments from the public. -Linda Natole, the applicant, spoke in favor of the rezoning. She said she plans to leave the property as is which she believes is currently a motorcycle repair shop. She reported the concertina wire on the fence has been removed. She said people were previously prepared to refute complaints of late night motorcycles associated with her property up and down the road at all hours but it was not her intention to allow such. Seeing no one else move, Chairman Miller closed the public hearing. Commissioner Hill moved to approve the rezoning as presented. Commissioners requested additional public comment. Vice Chairman House moved to reopen the public hearing. Commissioner Hill seconded the motion and the meeting was once again open for comments from the public regarding this rezoning. -Barbara Mills, 408 Mills House Lane, said she does not have a problem with the property being rezoned but she does have a problem with what it's being used for now. Mrs. Mills said she doesn't believe it is a motorcycle repair shop. She said activity there has significantly diminished since three weeks ago but prior to that the motorcycles went up and down the road spooking their horses, bothering their dogs and waking everyone up. She said there have been parties where cars line either side of the road and you could barely drive one car down the road. Mrs. Mills said it's not a problem with the property being zoned commercial, which she understands that is what this hearing is about, but June 16, 2014, Regular Meeting Minutes Harnett County Board of Commissioners Page 8 of12 with the use after that. She said the property is not big enough to run a motorcycle club out of. She said the existing fence is still not presentable. Mrs. Mills responded that everyone she has talked to is not happy with the current use. -Adam Repsik of 150 Boats Lane said he is a member of the motorcycle club being questioned and wanted to address some of the concerns they may have. He said the party that was mentioned was in March and was initially planned for approximately 20 to 30 people however approximately 250 to 300 people showed up unplanned. He said as far as motorcycles going up and down that road, he said he as seen many different people riding that road at all hours of the night not wearing their club stuff. He said they have not received any complaints, no one has talked to them and the Sheriff's Office has not been out there. He said they wear club stuff in plain view and are law-abiding in every way. He asked that people talk to them, tell them if they are doing something wrong or not doing something. Mr. Repsik responded that they are a motorcycle club, who currently occupies that building, and who also services their bikes. He said they also use the property to have parties which are open to the public with no membership requirement or fee. He said one of the times people complained that they were zooming up and down the road all night that his entire chapter was 150 miles away at a fundraiser. Mr. Repsik said they do allow alcohol on premises for people 21 years of age and over. Vice Chairman House said this property is in his district and this particular building is an eyesore; the fence looks bad and he has always wondered what was behind the razor wire and is glad it has been removed. He said has gotten some complaints about motorcycles on Bethel Baptist Road at 1:00am and 2:00am in the morning. He asked how Mrs. Mills how frequent this happens which she said prior to three weeks ago probably 4 to 5 times a week. Vice Chairman House said what has been described does not sound like a business but a hobby of fixing their own motorcycles. Mr. Repsik said it has potential to become a business and they are still working on the details. Mr. Locklear reported that a club is a use that is permitted under the commercial zoning districted and is permitted as a conditional use under the current zoning district. Mr. Locklear remind the Board the need to consider all uses that are allowed in the commercial category and cautioned them to move away from their current line of questioning. He did respond that if the rezoning was left as is the group could apply to the Board of Adjustment for a Conditional Use Permit to have a club there. -Paul Long said there is a lot oflaws that can control what's going on there. He said there isn't a day or night that motorcycles don't cause his cows to run. He said the same thing goes for people playing boom boxes in their car that wake you up at night. Mr. Long told commissioners that weren't elect to tell us how to live. He said if there is a regulatory situation here they can deal with it as is or they can deal with it rezoned. Mr. Long said he is for the tax-payer property owner to have the freedom to prosper from their land. -Lisa Natole asked Commissioner House if he knew what that property looked like before she got it. When questioned about the razor-wire fencing, Mrs. Natole said her and her husband could not run a business from that property because they were broken into 20 times and said the Sheriff's Office could verify this. She said the fence may not be pretty but is very necessary. June 16, 2014, Regular Meeting Minutes Harnett County Board of Commissioners Page 9 of12 Seeing no one else move, Chairman Miller closed the public hearing. Commissioner Hill restated her motion to approve the rezoning as presented. Chairman Miller seconded the motion which failed 2 to 3. The group considered approval to amended offer of employment to Tommy R. Burns, County Manager. The amendment provides that if Mr. Burns' employment with County of Harnett is terminated by County of Harnett for any reason other than conviction of a felony or misdemeanor involving moral turpitude (including perjury), he will receive a minimum severance payment equal to (3) months gross salary to include accrued benefits. This severance payment will extend by one month per year of continuous service from the original date of hire, not to exceed a maximum of six months. All other terms of Mr. Burns' offer of employment remain the same, are ratified, and are in full effect. Commissioner Springle requested clarification of the additional wording included in the amended offer of employment as the group had only discussed severance. Mr. Burns said the additional wording should have actually been included in the original offer. Commissioner Springle moved to approve the amended offer of employment to County Manager Tommy R. Burns as presented. Commissioner Burgin seconded the motion which passed unanimously. Mark Locklear, Director of Planning Services, petitioned the board for a public hearing on a proposed zoning change: Landowner/ Applicant: Willie Brinkley, Sam Brinkley, Katherleen B. Thomas & Heirs/Spout Springs Retail Investment, LLC; 47.91 +/-acres; From RA-20R to Commercial; Hwy 24/87; Anderson Creek Township. Mr. Locklear noted the site is currently vacant, except for a residential structure located on Parcel #1 -the parcels are across from Brinkley Hill Lane. Surrounding land uses are single family residential homes & residential subdivision, a variety of commercial development in close proximity, as well as undeveloped land. Mr. Locklear noted services available for the site are public water and public sewer with an annual daily traffic count of $34,000 trips per day on the Hwy 87 corridor with good site distances. As required for all zoning changes within a five mile radius of Fort Bragg, the Regional Land Use Advisory Commission was contacted. Mr. Locklear reported that the Harnett County Planning Board, at their June 2, 2014 meeting, voted unanimously to recommend approval of this rezoning application based on the existing zoning compatibility to the surrounding properties. Mr. Locklear also noted the applicants were present. Mr. Locklear reported staff evaluation as: The IMP ACT to the adjacent property owners and the surrounding community is reasonable, and the benefits of the rezoning outweigh any potential inconvenience or harm to the community. REASONING: In the vicinity of the subject property, non- residential development has continued at a steady pace. The requested zoning change to Commercial will not have a negative impact on the surrounding properties or the community as it is similar in nature to certain existing zoning districts in the area. The requested zoning district is COMPATIBLE with the existing Land Use Classification. REASONING: The requested zoning is compatible with the existing Land Use Classification of Compact Mixed Use. The Compact Mixed Use June 16, 2014, Regular Meeting Minutes Harnett County Board of Commissioners Page 10 of 12 classification is to encourage a different combination of uses such as: commercial; institutional, as well as single family and multi-family developments. The proposal does ENHANCE or maintain the public health, safety and general welfare. REASONING: The proposed commercial zoning is more appropriate for this site due to properties to the North and South zoned commercial as well as property across Hwy 87. The proposed zoning would enhance the public health, safety and general welfare. This request is NOT for a SMALL SCALE REZONING and should not be evaluated for reasonableness. REASONING: This request does not need to be evaluated for a small scale rezoning, due to the property's size. Suggested Statement-of-Consistency: Staff concludes that the requested rezoning to Commercial is compatible with Harnett County regulatory documents and would not have an unreasonable impact on the surrounding community and will enhance the public health, safety, and general welfare for the reasons stated in the evaluation. It is recommended that this rezoning request be approved. Chairman Miller called to order a public hearing on the matter and opened the meeting for comments from the public. -Erwin McNeill of 6 Longleaf Circle in Cameron said he was speaking on behalf of approximately 50 heirs who are 100% percent in favor of this rezoning. Seeing no one else move, Chairman Miller closed the public hearing. Commissioner Burgin moved to approve the rezoning as presented. Commissioner Springle seconded the motion which passed unanimously. Mr. Burns presented the following reports: -Community Development Monthly Performance Report-June 2014 -Planning Services Report-May 2014 -Veterans Affairs Activities Report-May 2014 -Department of Public Health Activities Summary -May 2014 -Interdepartmental Budget Amendments -Harnett County Schools Current Expense Financial Statement -Southeastern Economic Development Commission Financial Statements Commissioners Burgin and Springle requested Mrs. Honeycutt to get clarification and additional information regarding the Harnett County Schools Current Expense Financial Statement. The group continued to discuss the statements provided. There was no new business. Commissioner Hill moved that the Board go into closed session to consult with the County legal staff in order to preserve the attorney-client privilege concerning the handling of a certain claim. This motion is made pursuant to N.C. General Statute Section 143-318.1l(a)(3). Commissioner Burgin seconded the motion which passed unanimously. Commissioner Springle moved that the Board come out of closed session. Commissioner Burgin seconded the motion which passed unanimously. June 16, 2014, Regular Meeting Minutes Harnett County Board of Commissioners Page 11 of 12 Commissioner Burgin mentioned that Duke Energy and Piedmont Gas are talking to Spectra Energy about running a natural gas line across seven North Carolina counties of which Harnett County is one of them. Commissioner Burgin said we should talk to them about the rest of Harnett County and see if there are some other things we can do. Staff noted that they were aware of the project and had recently received a package of information that they will share with commissioners. Commissioner Burgin moved to adjourn the meeting at 8:21pm. Commissioner Hill seconded the motion which passed unanimously.

HARNETT COUNTY BOARD OF COMMISSIONERS ATTEST: Harnett County Board of Commissioners HARNETT COUNTY BOARD OF COMMISSIONERS Minutes ofReconvened Special Session-Budget June 12, 2014 The Harnett County Board of Commissioners reconvened in special session on Thursday, June 12, 2014, in the Commissioners Meeting Room, County Administration Building, 102 East Front Street, Lillington, North Carolina. Members present: Staff present: Joe Miller, Chairman Gary House, Vice Chairman Jim Burgin, Commissioner Beatrice B. Hill, Commissioner Gordon Springle, Commissioner Tommy Bums, Harnett County Manager Joseph Jeffries, Deputy County Manager Dwight Snow, County Attorney Jennifer Slusser, Staff Attorney Kimberly Honeycutt, Finance Officer Allen Coats, Deputy Finance Officer Margaret Regina Wheeler, Clerk to the Board Commissioner Hill moved that the board reconvene at 8:05am. Commissioner Springle seconded the motion which passed unanimously. Mrs. Honeycutt distributed Budget Preparation Work Sheets for Fiscal Year 2015 Budget Summary-Fund 110 General Fund Revenue. Mrs. Honeycutt reviewed the information with commissioners and gave an overview oflocal funding required for some programs. Mr. Jeffries reported that most of the Department of Social Services programs are funded by state and federal dollars with the county's match ranging from 50% to 12%. Commissioner Springle asked if the county is required to provide all of the programs currently be provided by Social Services. Commissioner Burgin asked fellow commissioners if an agreement had already been made regarding a tax increase which each said they had not. Discussions continued between Vice Chairman House and Commissioner Burgin. Staff continued to respond to budget inquiries. The group discussed the Employee Health Clinic. Mrs. Honeycutt explained the proposed budgeting for the clinic which is set up as an Internal Service Fund. Health Director John Rouse confirmed it would be cheaper to not bill the employees insurance for the allowable amount given the county's new self-insured plan. June 12, 2014, Budget Special Session Minutes Harnett County Board of Commissioners Page 1 of3 Staff estimated the total cost of county employee benefits, including the clinic and retirement, is $17,000 per employee. The group discussed previous projections provided by Davenport & Company, LLC. Mr. Bums noted Davenport is currently working on an insert regarding the proposed bond referendum. Commissioner Burgin said he fears if a tax increase is passed then there will be no incentive for Harnett County Schools to look at other options including year-round schedules and renovations. Staff proposed $1.6 million in additional adjustments to the proposed budget which included redirecting $600,000 from the sale ofland, increased wellness grant amount, increased salary expenses, increased transportation fees as well as appropriating an addition $1 million from fund balance which would result in a 3.5 cents property tax increase. Mr. Bums noted this would reduce the capital outlay allocation to Harnett County School to $3.5 million. Mr. Bums then offered other possible reductions that would reduce the proposed tax increase an additional penny. Staff reported one penny on the current tax base would equal $774,000. Commissioners Burgin and Springle questioned the need for a tax increase given the current year's budget projects revenues of $110 Million over expenses of $108 Million. Staff noted current revenues over expenses would roll forward into the county's fund balance. Mrs. Honeycutt responded that some of the increase is needed to continue to build the county's fund balance. During discussions regarding the cost of the new VIPER system, Emergency Management Director Gary Pope responded that the County was no longer eligible to apply for the grant to offset VIPER equipment costs when they took advantage of the $1 million savings to purchase the VIPER equipment at the end of 2013. Commissioner Burgin requested the total number of full-time and part-time county employees as well as the total number of county vehicles. Commissioner Burgin listed tax rates paid by citizens living within each municipality. Commissioners continued debate among themselves. Chairman Miller asked what the 2.5 cents property tax increase this year would means for next year's budget. Chairman Miller said they need to raise fees, bring more revenue in and consider a moratorium on new homes being built. Mr. Pope said his office could charge for fire inspections, CPR training and other services currently being offered for free. Mr. Jeffries stressed the need to give departments the ability to do their jobs at a high level as well as the need to support measures and fees that are put in place; to stay the course despite complaints. Mr. Jeffries also told commissioners that the cuts are impacting employee morale. June 12, 2014, Budget Special Session Minutes Harnett County Board of Commissioners Page 2 of3 Commissioner Burgin discussed the need to incorporate the western Harnett area. He said a .44 cent tax district in western Harnett would solve a lot of problems. He reminded the group that the Sheriffhas reported numerous times that a majority ofhis calls are in Westem Harnett. Commissioner Springle agrees that we need to raise fees to offset costs and said we can't keep raising taxes. Commissioner Springle said he does not want any tax increase but understands what Mrs. Honeycutt said about where we need to be. Commissioner Burgin said he is all for reinstating 401 K and dental benefits for employees but believes they need to adjust benefits for new hires. Commissioner Burgin said he would not vote to increase property taxes. He also discussed the tax revaluation scheduled for 2017. Vice Chairman House said the county cannot continue digging in to their fund balance. He said we haven't looked after school or employees and can't sustain what we are doing in the County. Vice Chairman House said he did not have any problems with the original budget proposal that included a 5.5 cent property tax increase. Commissioner Hill asked about the $2 million still owed in taxes and why we can't collect it. Commissioner Hill said she supports raising property taxes but said if we are going to increase taxes she wishes the entire board would approve the increase. Chairman Miller said he agrees with Commissioner House on what staffhas worked on as well as agreeing with Commissioner Burgin that they need to look at incorporating the western part of the county. Chairman Miller said we need to look at increasing fees and other ways to bring revenue in to be able to keep the county running. Chairman Miller said he has no problem with a 2.5 cent tax increase which the staff said would only be sustaining. Mr. Bums noted that the fee schedule can be adjusted throughout the year but the tax rate must be set by July 1st. Mr. Bums reiterated that a budget is a forecast document. He said he would like to reinstate some benefits for employees. The group discussed employees leaving the county for better pay and benefits and the fact that rural areas are sometimes training grounds for employees. It was the consensus of the Board that the County Manager prepare and provide a proposed budget including a 2.5 cent property tax increase for public comment. Commissioner Burgin moved to adjourn the meeting at 9:58 am. Commissioner Springle seconded the motion which passed unanimously.

Commissioner Burgin led the invocation. Mark Locklear and Randy Baker, Harnett County Planning Services, reviewed Draft #5 of the proposed Firearms & Explosives Discharge Ordinance. Mr. Locklear said staffhas researched June 10, 2014, Special Session Minutes Harnett County Board of Commissioners Page 1 of 4 the issue as well as looking around to see what other counties have done. Sheriff Rollins said he is okay with Draft #5 of the proposed Firearms & Explosives Discharge Ordinance with the exception of requiring it unlawful to discharge of a firearm within 200 feet, instead of 300 feet, of any public or private road, utility or access easement or permanent building not under the ownership of controlled by the person responsible for the discharge of the firearm. Staff will clarify within the ordinance that hunting is exempt fi·om this discharge ordinance as hunting is covered under NC Wildlife regulations. The group continued to discuss the proposed ordinance. Sheriff Rollins reported that he had received feedback from the District Attorney who recommended that they leave the civil penalty within the ordinance. Mr. Snow sought clarification regarding Section 14. Violations and Penalty, maximum fine up to $500. Mrs. Slusser asked if they wanted to include the "civil penalties" as it puts the enforcement back to the County. Mr. Locklear said this is a police-power ordinance with the enforcement limited to the Sheriffs Office only. Staff will bring the proposed Firearms & Explosives Discharge Ordinance back before the Board in August. Staff responded regarding the use of"bullet traps". Mrs. Honeycutt highlighted proposed changes to the County's Travel Policy. It was the consensus ofthe Board to put the revised travel policy forward for approval at the upcoming regular Board meeting. Mr. Burns recognized Central Carolina Community College (CCCC) President Dr. Bud Marchant, Chairman Julian Philpott and Harnett County Provost Bill Tyson. CCCC representatives shared preliminary plans to add a CCCC campus at the Harnett Training Center in Dunn. Mr. Tyson distributed drawings of the Harnett Training Center facility in Dunn. Dr. Marchant said they've been looking for a long time to expand operations in Dunn which is an underserved area of the county. Commissioner Burgin reported that Dunn Mayor Oscar Harris stated this could be done at no expense to the County. Dr. Marchant said CCCC should take possession of the space next summer and would have a lease agreement with the non-profit Harnett Training Center LLC. He noted a second agreement would be needed between the County of Harnett and the City and Dunn. Commissioner Burgin also noted the Dunn PAL program would be located at the facility. As Budget discussions began, Mr. Burns said he hoped to negotiate through the proposed balanced budget, including a 5 Yz cent tax increase, which was previously provided to commissioners. Mrs. Honeycutt explained how she calculated projected revenues. Staff continued to field questions regarding projected revenues. Mrs. Honeycutt estimated the revenues for 2013/2014 would total approximately $110,000,000. June 10, 2014, Special Session Minutes Harnett County Board of Commissioners Page 2 of4 Mr. Bums responded that the State Auditor had advised the County against using enterprise funds to balance their budget. However, Mr. Bums did note $400,000 is transferred annually from the Public Utilities Enterprise Fund to the County's General Fund to cover indirect costs. The group discussed expenditures. Commissioner Burgin said it looked like all departments had increased by significant percentages. Mrs. Honeycutt noted the 30% increase in the cost of employee insurance. Mrs. Honeycutt estimated total expenditures for 2013/2014 would total approximately $108,500,000. Commissioner Burgin said he couldn't see how we need a 5.5 cent tax increase. Mr. Bums said the budget is a forecast document and their main concern is keeping the fund balance healthy. Mr. Bums said they are thinking ahead for future projects and trying to improve the County's standing. Mrs. Honeycutt said additional expenses to consider for the upcoming fiscal year include the cost of insurance, some revenue funds are down, retiree expenses, Brightwater building payment increase, county absorbing employee benefit costs and workers comp. Commissioners Burgin and Springle said the 2013 Davenport & Company, LLC report did not show a tax increase for this year. The group continued to discuss Davenport's recommendations. Budget discussion continued. Commissioners Burgin, Springle and Miller asked where additional cuts could be made. Commissioner Hill asked what efforts are being put forth to collect the $2.6 million in taxes owed. Mr. Bums said the 5.5 cent increase is needed to keep the current level provision and plan for future debt. The group discussed the cost of salary and benefits per county employee. Commissioner Springle asked about dollars we have control over; department revenues verse local cost for state and federal programs. Discussions continued regarding services provided at local expense. It was noted that Social Services occasionally pay for cremations of unclaimed bodies in the county. Mr. Bums assured the Board that staff continues to look at ways to save money. He said the County could save significantly by eliminating their landscaping contract and could save approximately $18,000 by contracting out custodian services. He said they were also continuing to study how they can save money at the courthouse. The group discussed benefits offered to both employees and retirees and the potential to adjust benefits offered moving forward. Commissioner Springle asked that they look at what the state averages are and maybe consider employees paying a portion ofbenefits as some point. Commissioner Burgin said people need to know they are getting rich benefits and rich pay. Mrs. Honeycutt said she hates the cost of insurance increased she feels like we can control that cost by becoming self-insured. June 10, 2014, Special Session Minutes Harnett County Board of Commissioners Page 3 of 4 Commissioner Springle said people seem very pleased with the things that Nick Dula is doing and the contacts he has made. Commissioner Springle thinks the county is wide-open with what it can do and the future is bright. Commissioners agreed to continue budget discussions at 8:00am on Thursday, June 12, 2014. Staff will make adjustments and provide additional information to commissioners. The Board directed, by consensus, the Clerk to notice a public hearing on the proposed 2014/2015 budget for June 23, 2014 at 7:00pm. The group broke shortly for lunch. Staff provided commissioners with copies of 1) June 2014 Sales Tax Analysis by Article; 2) April2014 Harnett County Financial Summary Report; and 3) May 2014 Harnett County Financial Summary Report. Mrs. Slusser reported that the Workforce Development Board has asked Harnett County to apply to run the Sampson County program. Mrs. Slusser said typically the Board approves application for grant prior to apply however staff must submit the document today. It was the consensus of the Board to apply with the understanding that the Board would vote to accept or reject if awarded. Mr. Bums reviewed the June 16, 2014 Regular Meeting agenda. Mr. Bums noted there had been some discussion regarding the cancellation of the July 1st special session. Mr. Bums also reported that the Board of Education had requested a letter of support for application of an i3 Scale-Up Grant to help with expansion oftheir early college model. The grant would require a 5% match and payments could be made over a five year period. It was the consensus of the Board to allow Mr. Bums to provide a letter of support for the Board of Education's application but the Board of Commissioners must first agree to accept the grant if awarded. At 12:24 pm Commissioner Burgin moved to recess the meeting to reconvene at 8:00am on Thursday, June 12,2014. Commissioner Hill seconded the motion which passed unanimously.

The County went out for bids for banking services and bids were received from: • PNC • BB&T • First Citizens • First Tennessee Bank Based upon an analysis of the bids, it has been decided that the County's primary banking should remain with PNC but that the lockbox function for Public Utilities be awarded to First Tennessee Bank. I feel that the earnings credit and fees charged by PNC are comparable to the market and will continue the "best fit" for County needs. The lockbox function for Public Utilities will enable a "more direct" processing of lockbox payments (payments are currently mailed to Charlotte and then sent to Atlanta for processing) by allowing those payments to be sent directly to and processed in Charlotte. Based upon procedure, and to maintain the confidentiality of proposals until awarded, a bid tab is not attached to this agenda request but will be provided to the Board for review.

PNC Initiative Fac Sheet 10 1 " ANNIVERSARY PNC Grow Up Great is a $350 million, multi-year, bilingual initiative that began in 2004 to help prepare children from birth to age 5 for success in school and life. To date, the program has served more than 2 million children. • Founded by The PNC Financial Services Group, Inc., PNC Grow Up Great and PNC Crezca con Exito form a comprehensive, bilingual program designed to help prepare children -particularly underserved children -for success in school and life. Through the program, PNC emphasizes the importance of the first five years of life, which research has shown is critical to long-term achievement, and provides innovative opportunities that assist families, educators and community partners to enhance children's learning and development. An investment in pre-K students makes good economic sense and plants the seeds for the dynamic workforce of tomorrow. AN INVESTMENT IN THE FUTURE • Extensive research indicates that the return on investments in high-quality early education and school readiness initiatives are significant and long lasting -impacting our children, our society and the health of our economy for generations to come. • Research also shows that children who participate in high-quality preschool programs are far more likely to experience greater educational achievements, strive toward higher vocational aspirations and contribute to society later in life. EXPERT PARTNERS HELP GUIDE THE INITIATIVE PNC Grow Up Great has partnered with some of the nation's most highly respected early childhood experts and nonprofit organizations to help guide this initiative: Advisory Council Maureen Barber-Carey, Ed. D., Barber National Institute W. Steven Barnett, Ph.D., National Institute for Early Education Research Barbara T. Bowman, Erikson Institute Jerlean E.

Vinci, National Head Start Association Sesame Workshop Sesame Workshop is the nonprofit educational organization behind Sesame Street™ and so much more. The Fred Rogers Company The Fred Rogers Company, producer of Mister Rogers' Neighborhood, creates a wide range of multimedia materials dedicated to young children, their families and those who support them. National Head Start Association (NHSA) NHSA is a private, national association that supports Head Start programs. It offers a wide variety of services and provides a number of programs designed to directly enhance the operations of Head Start and Childhood Education communities and enrich the lives of Head Start students, parents, and staff. -more- A COMPREHENSIVE APPROACH Grants • Over $73 million in grants have been distributed to Head Start and other organizations that support early childhood education. Funding through PNC Grow Up Great has established innovative school readiness programs for preschoolers in math, science, the arts and financial education, including: Integrated Arts & Science Curriculum: PNC has worked with non-profit organizations in four states to develop a collaborative model for at-risk preschool children which integrates science and the arts across the existing curriculum. With $5.2 million in funding, the individual programs provide teacher professional development, create hands-on children's activities and offer families free visits to science and cultural centers. Financial Education Initiative: Building on an initiative first launched in April 2011, PNC expanded its financial education program for young children to six Southeast markets. Including new funds, this approximately $13 million financial education program encourages children to learn basic financial concepts through activities that highlight the importance of saving, spending, and sharing, making choices and the value of people, things, and money. Sesame Workshop created a multimedia bilingual activity kit in support of the initiative. Kids and Cars: PNC-funded programs in Detroit and Indianapolis showed young children how math and science concepts apply to auto racing. More than 200 pre-K kids from Detroit Public Schools attended events where they made their own race flags and learned about friction, gravity, safety and human power. Young children in Indianapolis learned about car shapes and designs and their effect on speed and aerodynamics. Volunteerism • PNC encourages employee involvement in PNC Grow Up Great through a progressive policy that permits up to 40 hours a year of paid time off for volunteerism. • Grants for Great Hours Program: Employees who volunteer at least 40 hours within a twelve month period at a qualified nonprofit early education program earn a $1,000 grant that is donated to the preschool in the employee's name. Groups of employees may also volunteer as a team and apply for a grant of up to $3,000. • In the last nine years, more than 39,000 PNC employees have volunteered and more than 400,000 volunteer hours have been logged at early childhood education centers. In addition, employees donated more than 610,000 items for use in classrooms or for the personal well-being of preschool children. Advocacy • PNC is leveraging its influence with the business community, policymakers and other key influencers to elevate discussions about the importance of access to quality early childhood education. • Peter J. Danchak, regional president for PNC Bank, Northeast Pennsylvania, serves as co-chair of the Pennsylvania Early Learning Investment Commission. Comprised of business leaders from across the state, the commission seeks support for public investment in early learning. • Through a partnership with The Pew Charitable Trusts and Committee for Economic Development (CEO), PNC launched the first-ever summit of the nation's top economists to explore the economic impact of investment in early education. Awareness • PNC Grow Up Great has an ongoing campaign to communicate the importance of school readiness. These efforts have garnered more than 5. 7 billion media impressions since the program's inception. • PNC and Sesame Workshop created the multimedia educational kit, "Math Is Everywhere," the most recent in the bilingual school readiness initiative, "Happy, Healthy, Ready for School." It was followed by "For Me, for You, for Later: First Steps to Spending, Sharing and Saving ™," which was produced to introduce children to basic financial education concepts. Both kits provide helpful tips and fun activities for children and families to turn everyday moments into learning opportunities. Approximately 3 million kits have been distributed and are available at no cost at PNC Bank branches and available for download at pncgrowupgreat.com.

Scope ofWork: Please reference Appendix 1. for complete project proposal details. Harnett County will use NCWRC funds towards assisting in the development of a natural resources element for a Comprehensive Land Use Plan update with the intention to encourage steering development towards a higher density, mixed use model in appropriate sectors that focus on preserving key natural assets. This effort seeks to build on work recently completed as part of the Fort Bragg Sustainable Growth Management Strategy (SGMS)1 . By combining this effort with the Land Use Plan update there will be efficiencies realized. NCWRC technical assistance will be utilized to conduct three meetings of the Natural Resource Subcommittee of the Harnett County Comprehensive Land Use Plan Advisory Committee. The goals are to assist in conducting analysis related to the current state of natural resources in the county and drafting an existing conditions report, updating the priority natural assets data used in the GIS based Fort Bragg Growth Model to reflect local priorities, and finally to develop strategies for inclusion in the land use plan itself. Priority wildlife habitats and natural resources will be integrated into the Community Viz program of the Fort Bragg Regional Growth Model for use in developing alternative scenarios for testing as part of the land use plan development process. Weights given to different natural resources will be developed based on facilitated exercises with the Natural Resources Subcommittee and members of the public. Public meetings will be held to illicit input for the Land Use Plan. During some public meetings an innovative "light table" display will be set up so that attendees can use an interactive map to provide input on areas of the county where they feel key habitat needs to be conserved. It is also planned as a part of this process that a website or online tool on Harnett County's unique natural resources is developed. Sustainable Sandhills will provide training on land use planning as an educational tool to Harnett County Schools, conduct pre-survey with Youth Planning Corps members, and train the Youth Planning Corps in land use planning and conservation over a three month period. Youth Planning Corps members will survey their parents and neighbors on conservation and land use planning topics, and present their findings to the Harnett County Planning Board and/or the Harnett County Board of Commissioners. Success will be measured through the number of community residents directly engaged by the Youth Planning Corps members and the final report public opinion report submitted to the Harnett County Planning Board. 1 Fort Bragg Sustainable Growth Management Strategy http://www .bra crtf.com/ docu ments/FBSusta ina bleGrowth Managem ent5trategy2. 24.13. pdf Description Non-federal Match The Commission Sub-Total Salary $22,500 $10,000 32,500 Fringe $0 Travel Supplies Equipment Other Overhead/Indirect \\'aived overhead here l\1ust be zero Total 22,500 10,000 32,500 V.

INVOICE DESCRIPTION OF SERVICE COST $ Describe Services/Product Total Due $ REMIT TO: Cllck l1tre 10 enJer text Signature Harnett County Partners for Green Growth: 2014 grant pre-application Overview The continued growth and development of Harnett County, NC over the last decade or so has been nothing short of staggering. The population has grown by more than 34% since 2000 alone, making it the number one micropolitan growth area in the country. With exponential growth local governments must learn not only how to serve its citizenry, but also how to facilitate this growth in a manner that is both sustainable and conscientious. Being situated in the intersection offive ecoregions (Sandhills, Rolling Coastal Plain, Southeastern Floodplains, Low Terraces, and Northern Outer Piedmont)1 of North Carolina, and having the major riverine system of the Cape Fear that bisects the county; we have an exceptionally diverse cross section of flora & fauna that call this area home. It is our duty to be stewards of this land, and to implement a comprehensive plan that will identify steps to protect key natural resources by ensuring compatible land use activities and development design. Project Description Harnett County's goal in applying for the $10,000 Partners for Green Growth grant is to use any funds awarded towards assisting in the development of a natural resources element for a Comprehensive Land Use Plan update. The existing plan is antiquated and does not appropriate an absorbent amount of language to areas of environmental importance. Although a plan update may be possible without the grant, outside funding will allow for additional public involvement and with input from NRWRC, we will be able to incorporate more robust data, analysis and modeling as well as targeted strategies that help protect Harnett County's natural resources. An innovative approach to developing a land use concept is proposed and we anticipate an approved, working document in less than a year. We look to steer development towards a higher density, mixed use model in appropriate sectors that focus on preserving key natural assets. The plan will outline things such as Conservation Areas, Environmentally Sensitive Areas, Rural Development Nodes, High-Medium-and Low Density Residential Areas, as well as Municipal Growth, Commercial zones and many more. If you reference the in-kind totals in our budget you can see how much time will be dedicated to this. This effort seeks to build on work recently completed as part of the Fort Bragg Sustainable Growth Management Strategy (SGMSf The SGMS was the result of a multi-jurisdictional planning effort that resulted in a Preferred Growth Scenario and other strategies to deal with growth and protect priority natural assets in the Fort Bragg Region. These strategies are meant to be refined by local governments as existing plans are updated. By combining this effort with the Land Use Plan update there will be efficiencies realized, as the plan update will necessitate a good deal of existing conditions analysis, scenario planning, and public involvement. Grant funds and NCWRC technical assistance will be utilized to conduct three meetings of the Natural Resource Subcommittee of the Harnett County Comprehensive Land Use Plan Advisory Committee. The goals are to assist in conducting analysis related to the current state of natural 1 EPA Level IV Eco Regions of North Carolina (ftp://ftp.epa.gov/wed/ecoregions/nc/nc eco.pdf) 2 Fort Bragg Sustainable Growth Management Strategy http://www .bracrtf.co m/ docu ments/FBSusta inableG rowth M a nagementStrategy2. 24.13. pdf resources in the county and drafting an existing conditions report, updating the priority natural assets data used in the GIS based Fort Bragg Growth Model to reflect local priorities, and finally to develop strategies for inclusion in the land use plan itself. Grant funds will be used to conduct an in depth analysis of the existing conditions of natural resources in the county that would not be possible with a standard land use plan update. In addition to the standard maps that would be produced with a land use plan (i.e. existing land use and land cover, protected areas, significant natural heritage areas, etc.) maps of data from the Conservation Planning Tool will be developed and integrated into the land use plan development process. This will include a few novel analyses such as extracting biodiversity data from the Conservation Planning Tool and combining that with data available from the Fort Bragg Regional Growth Model to produce an analysis of threatened habitat. An estimate ofthe current urban footprint in Harnett County will be produced. It is anticipated that county staff and consultants will assist in this process. The threatened habitat and urban footprint data could be updated at a later date and used to track effectiveness of the land use plan. Having an in-depth analysis of the current state of the county's natural resources prior to the development of land use plan goals will enable advisory committee members to integrate wildlife habitat conservation into the goals that will be developed for the plan. After the existing conditions report is complete, Harnett County GIS will also add key conservation data to their online GIS viewer in order to make the data more accessible to members of the public, developers, and other interested parties. Discussions are already underway about how to implement and fund this portion of the effort. Grant funds will be used to facilitate the refinement of assumptions related to local natural resource priorities. These priorities will be integrated into the Fort Bragg Regional Growth Model for use in developing alternative scenarios for testing as part of the land use plan development process. Weights given to different natural resources will be developed based on facilitated exercises with the Natural Resources Subcommittee and members of the public. For the public meeting an innovative "light table" display will be set up so that attendees can use an interactive map to provide input on areas of the county where they feel key habitat needs to be conserved. In addition to our land use plan concept, unique public involvement efforts are proposed. We plan to have representatives from the Sandhills Conservation Partnership and the NCWRC provide a presentation to our selected group so we can conduct exercises aimed at identifying locations with important natural features, such as where they would like to see habitat, forests or farms preserved. It is also planned as a part of this process that website or online tool on Harnett County's unique natural resources is developed. This could be a website or an ArcGIS Online (AGO) exhibie that displays natural resource information for Harnett County. This AGO exhibit may be a map, 3 see http://maps.dcnr.pa.gov/storymaps/oldgrowth.html# for an example of what is possible with the ArcGIS Online platform app, or map story depending on early scoping conversations with the project team and FWS. It will be maintained by Harnett County online or represented by a poster that displays information regarding natural resources and endangered species. This will build on the ConnectEd Initiative and Esri's recent decision to provide free ArcGIS Online accounts to all K-12 schools in the United States 4 . It is anticipated that this task will build on existing work at Sustainable Sandhills, the state level, and the existing conditions analysis for the land use plan. This will require Harnett County staff time for mapping, customization and coordination with middle or high school science teachers. The interaction could add value to existing curricula and coincide with GIS Day or Earth Day, and in addition help to serve as a component of a non-federal in- kind match. Sustainable Sandhills will provide outreach through Harnett County Schools to recruit 5-15 students as a Youth Planning Corps. This Youth Planning Corps based on the Lemon Grove, California case study model with the goal of educating youth on civic engagement and land use planning, engage school-age children engagement in the planning process, and to connect HCS to STEM-career development in planning. Sustainable Sandhills will provide training on land use planning as an educational tool to Harnett County Schools, conduct pre-survey with Youth Planning Corps members, and train the Youth Planning Corps in land use planning and conservation over a 3 month period. Youth Planning Corps members will survey their parents and neighbors on conservation and land use planning topics, and present their findings to the Harnett County Planning Board and/or the Harnett County Board of Commissioners. Success will be measured through the number of community residents directly engaged by the Youth Planning Corps members and the final report on priority area topics submitted to the Harnett County Planning Board. Tasks that will be made possible by the grant include the respective callouts 2.3, 3.4, 3.5, 4.1 and 4.2 in Table 1. If granted approval we will court potential consultants, members of the Natural Resources Advisory Committee, as well as the NCWRC who can help us integrate new ecological components seamlessly into the plan. Between three staff members in the Planning Department, two in our GIS Department, and paid services to contracted employees, it is anticipated that we will far exceed the required $5,000 in kind match as referenced at the bottom of the revised table. Purpose and Need As growth ofboth residential and commercial entities push harder into the region, there are several things that are happening. We are seeing residential subdivisions appear in the form of leap frog development, either because of the price ofland, or the ease of conversion of a particular location. In some cases it has become more financially beneficial for landowners to sell long term family held farm tracts rather than putting them back into agricultural production. Without proper management and guidance through ordinances, plans, and tangible ways that 4 See Esri Pledges $18 in Cloud-Based STEM Software to White House ConnectED Initiative (www.esri.com/esri- n ews/re I eas es/14-2qt r I esri-pl edges-1 b-in-cloud based-stem-software-to-white-house-connected-initiative) for more information these people can benefit such as conservation subdivisions, agricultural and forestry easements, this trend will likely continue. It is imperative that we develop tools to help steer development into areas that are not in conflict with natural resources and ensure that growth that does occur is well designed so that potential negative impacts are mitigated. Not only is it essential to preserve wildlife habitat and certain species from destruction, but also to make the best use of publicly provided utilities, services, and population diversity within the County boundary. The benefits that we receive from natural and protected areas are extraordinary. Preserved natural areas save vast sums of tax payers' money by helping mitigate flood waters, aide in water and air purification, crop pollination, and groundwater recharge. Parks generate up to five times the amount of money they take to create. Agriculture and forestry lands contribute to the local economy, preserve open space and provide critical habitat. It has also been shown that these lands contribute more money to the tax base than they cost in terms of governmental services. With existing ordinances offering incentives to developers to preserve high value open space, what we are lacking is a way to get developers to utilize these carrots in the best areas possible. A land use plan does this, and does it effectively. It is not a plan that sits op the shelf as a good idea, it is a plan that shapes the jurisdiction daily by way of rezoning's, development plans, annexations, recreational areas, subdivision approvals, and so on and so forth. Every day Planners rely on these plans to base growth strategies on. Ideally this grant would be used to develop a plan with tools that help implement proper green growth strategies. At the same time it will accommodate a growing population, and contribute to an economic boon for the County through smart design which draws quality development versus a piece-meal approach. While this grant would help us make great strides in accomplishing a lot of the outreach needed, to fully realize our goals we would need an additional five to ten thousand dollars for actual plan development. Previous Actions Harnett County Planning Services seeks to enrich our community through a multitude of innovative planning practices, and we have seen a gradual transition in mindset as it relates to this. One of the key initiatives that the department has championed over the past few years is the concept of the Conservation Subdivision. In our ordinance it is coined as the Compatibility Development Concept. By using a sliding scale of increased open space provision, the developer can achieve a higher density depending on the amount ofland they are willing to set aside as natural area. Developers are starting to comprehend that if they can get the same amount of density on fifteen acres of the total site versus twenty-five then costs are lower and sites are more marketable. Inherent in this model is a substantial savings because ofless utility provision, road paving, and grading cost. Also within this concept is the requirement of connection to both public sewer and water utility, thus helping to cluster these subdivisions in areas that are already developed or developing. One issue is that while developments may set aside natural areas, the developers rarely provide for connectivity, or conceptualize future growth patterns. We envision having large pockets of development with linked open spaces that can facilitate movement of species from one area to the other via wildlife corridors. By having an up to date Comprehensive Plan we can achieve this goal. It is our intent to establish charettes for stakeholders within the county upon approval to poll and get guidance on what they value most when it comes to natural resources. The Board of Commissioners would also be heavily involved throughout the process since they too are dedicating County funding to this project. Ideally the goals that are developed during the Land Use Plan update would help refine the priority habitat types and natural features that are protected by Compatibility Developments. Design is not the only way Harnett County is trying to conserve lands. As a requirement of approval the county levies what is called a Recreational Fee for each lot subdivided. In a relatively short time Harnett County has been able to purchase a thousand acre park in the southern part of the county with these funds, and has recently opened to visitors. We have also had a push by agricultural entities to establish Voluntary Agricultural Districts that are helping to conserve land for farm related uses and steer development away from these areas. If approved for this grant, we wish to continue this trend of environmentally conscientious planning, and involve our community more in the realization that these principles are a necessity to ensuring sustainable land use practices. Benefits In terms of natural areas and species that would benefit, there are many. Key natural areas include Ravens Rock State Park, the Cape Fear River floodplain and aquatic habitat, the Fort Bragg Overbills Area, the Reedys Swamp Longleaf Pine Forest, and the Long Valley Farm Natural Area. Many of these are located in high growth areas in the southern part of Harnett County where residential growth, driven by Fort Bragg, is fragmenting habitats. Harnett County contains at least 3 species that are classified as Endangered; The Cape Fear Shiner, The Red- Cockaded Woodpecker, and The Rough-Leaved loosestrife. These species encompass the necessity of clean water, habitat preservation, as well as conservation of unique habitat types and natural communities. All told, there are an additional twenty two types of wildlife within the county that find themselves on the Federal Species of Concern list. It is essential that there be adequate connectivity through wildlife corridors and edges to allow for the proper transition between developed property and natural habitats. We wish to preserve this biodiversity not only for ourselves, but for generations to come. As a department we would like to extend our gratitude for the opportunity to apply for this grant through your office. We feel strongly that the partnership between our entities is critical in the push toward sustainability, and an overall better quality of life for our residents. As I hope that you can see from the previous paragraphs, we feel that we are on the cusp of an innovative approach to land use planning that will guide our jurisdiction for decades to come. At no other time in this county's history has it been more apparent that there is a need for such immediate action through long range planning. Again we wish to thank you for this opportunity, and we look forward to hearing from you.

The MPO's role and role remains the same. However, as per results from the 2010 Census, the Capital Area MPO's boudary has grown. So, an updated MOU is required to add the Town of Archer Lodge as a member, and a few other minor adjustments such as adding the Federal Transit Administration & Federal Rail Administration as stakeholders. This revised MOU has been approved by CAMPO's Technial Coordinating Committee (TCC) and the Exectuitve Board (formaly Technical Advisory Committee).

Box 778 Lillington, NC 27546 Dear Mr. Burns, ~a pita I fTirea !Dletropolitan U41anning C!Jrganization The decennial Census brings with it changes to the MPO's designated urbanized area and thus, changes to the planning area boundary. The 2010 Census necessitated only slight changes for the Capital Area MPO, but a new boundary was necessary. The new boundary expanded slightly further into Johnston County and includes the newly incorporated municipality of Archer Lodge. The MPO's Executive Board (TAC) approved the new boundary on October 17, 2012. In order to fully incorporate the change into the administrative record of the MPO, the Memorandum of Understanding must be updated. Attached you will find the updated Memorandum of Understanding (MOU) that was approved by the TAC at its April16, 2014 meeting. The structure of the MPO, including weighted voting, remains the same as in the previous version of the MOU. The revised MOU adds Archer Lodge as an official member of the MPO, and makes other technical adjustments such as renaming the TAC to the Executive Board. Also, the Federal Transit Administration (FTA) and the Federal Rail Administration (FRA) were added to the list of invited stakeholder agencies to reflect the multi-modal mission of the Capital Area MPO. Finally, the actual weighted voting schedule, which is based on population estimates that are updated annually, was removed to the Executive Board Bylaws. This makes it easier to update the weighted voting schedule from an administrative standpoint; all voting weights on a per capita basis remain in effect as per the original MOU. This revised MOU has been reviewed by the MPO's Technical Coordinating Committee (TCC), member agencies' legal departments, and approved for adoption by the Executive Board (TAC). As a member agency of the Capital Area MPO, this updated MOU must now be adopted by your local governing board. After all member agencies have adopted the MOU, it will be adopted by the MPO Executive Board and finally by NCDOT's Board of Transportation to become fully effective. We ask that your board take action on this before July 31, 2014 in order to keep on schedule for a full adoption by the MPO Board and NCDOT Board in August and September. We request that you return 30 signed original copies of your local signature page (included). Upon full adoption, we will return an original full document to you. If you have any questions, or if you would like to meet with any MPO staff member to discuss this or any other transportation issue in your community, please don't hesitate to contact us. You can reach me at Shelby.Powell@campo- nc.us or 919/996-4393, or Chris Lukasina, Executive Director, at Chris.Lukasina@campo-nc.us or 919/996-4402.

At a minimum, this written plan must address the following four items: • A method by which the county proposes to identity abandoned manufactured homes in the county, including, without limitation, a process by which manufactured homeowners or other responsible parties may request designation of their home as an abandoned manufactured home. • A plan for the deconstruction of these abandoned manufactured homes. • A plan for the removal of the deconstructed components, including mercury switches from thermostats, for reuse or recycling, as appropriate. • A plan for the proper disposal of abandoned manufactured homes not deconstructed. When applying for an AMH Grant, applicants must provide a copy of their written plan for the management of abandoned manufactured homes. This plan must address each of the four required provisions listed above. Available Funding: The amount of funding available through an AMH Grant is determined by the a county's designation by the N.C. Department of Commerce as a development Tier I, 2, or 3 area (map of tier designations) as set forth by G.S. 143B-437 .08. • · Counties designated as development Tier 1 or 2 are eligible for a total AMH Grant Program award of up to $26,500, consisting of a $16,000 base award, an $8,000 supplemental award, and a $2,500 one time planning grant, which is only available to first-time applicants. Planning grants may be used to support the development of a County's written plan for the management of abandoned manufactured homes and/or to identifY and inventory the number abandoned manufactured homes in a community. Planning grants may be separate from or incorporated into the initial AMH Grant Program application and contract. Please contact David Hance, 919-707-8122 or david.hance@ncdenr.gov for application guidelines if you are interested in applying for a stand-alone AMH planning grant prior to or separately from applying for funds to manage deconstruction. • Counties designated as development Tier 3 are eligible for a total AMH Grant Program award of up to $16,000. Tier 3 counties are not eligible for supplemental funds or planning grants.

If a county is using a contractor for deconstruction operations, documentation of disposal/deconstruction costs will be through contractor invoices, tipping fee invoices, and general full cost accounting. If the program is run internally, documentation of costs will be through full cost accounting of program expenses using an accounting methodology agreed upon by the county and DEACS. If a third party is administering or operating aspects of the AMH program, reasonable fees paid for program administration will be considered reimbursable, and details of anticipated administrative costs should have been provided as a part of the county's program budget in the grant application. As noted above, requests for reimbursements must be submitted using the required format provided by DEACS. Grantees are not required to submit proof of payment when requesting reimbursement, but documentation of payment prior to requesting reimbursement of grant funds and documentation of all program expenses and revenues must be kept on file by the grantee. Proof of payment may include copies of invoices that have been approved for payment, statements from vendors indicating receipt of payment, copies of canceled checks, and I or account reports or general ledger statements indicating financial transactions. In order to minimize the amount of time spent managing reimbursements, requests for reimbursement should be submitted on a quarterly basis or when a grantee has accumulated a minimum of 6 deconstructed units. DEACS may make exceptions to this on a case-by-case basis. Reimbursed funds are generally released between 15 and 30 days after a reimbursement request is received by DEACS. Reimbursements may be paid electronically. NOTE: Any expenses incurred before a contract is signed by both DENR and the grant recipient are not reimbursable.

AMH Program Description DENR Contract# 6038 Attachment C • An estimate or projection of the number of AMH units intended to be managed during the grant term and the length of grant term requested (one to two years). The program coordinator is currently engaged in the daily activities of identifying abandoned manufactured homes and arranging the proper demolition, removal, and recycling of such homes and materials. The sixteen (16) homes during the grant cycle. This estimate is based on the program history and the average number of homes detected by staff. All projects performed under the AMH removal program will utilized grant funding to finance all unrecoverable costs associated with the project. It is Harnett County's goal to complete a minimum of sixteen (16) AMH removal projects with the timeframe specified within the grant contract period. Harnett County requests that the term of this grant be for a period of two years. • A description of the program approach to sharing the cost of deconstruction with responsible parties and a description of the process for recovery of funds from responsible parties. The Harnett County abandoned manufactured home program referred to as Project AMPI or the "Abandoned Manufactured Home Planning Initiative" was implemented in 2004. The Abandoned Manufactured Home Planning Initiative is designed to act as a management program for the reduction and proper disposal of abandoned manufactured homes. The program offers financial and personnel support to remove the units from properties located throughout Harnett County. Measures are taken to ensure that all demolition debris is properly disposed of, or recycled at certified recycling centers. The goal of the program is to reduce the number of properties that pose a threat to the health, safety, and general welfare of the citizens of Harnett County. Through proper demolition, removal, and recycling of abandoned manufactured homes, citizens enjoy the benefits of protected property values, increased safety, and environmentally friendly communities. The program is limited to the removal of one (1) home per parcel. Acceptance into the program is based upon a site inspection and the discretion of Harnett County Planning Services. Homes that have suffered fire damage or are located within a manufactured home park, are not eligible for this program. The current guidelines of the program require a financiai contribution from the property owner. The property owner is required to pay a base fee amount prior to any deconstruction of the home. It is estimated that the average base fee paid by 3 DENR Contract tt 6038 Attachment C homeowners will be $350.00 per demolition. Once deconstruction has been completed, the property owner is required to pay all fees that are generated from disposal of unrecyclable materials. In addition, county staff inspectors proactively search for manufactured homes that meet the classification of an abandoned manufactured home. • Description of the program approach to deconstruction operations. Will deconstruction activities be performed by county staff or a contractor? Will county staff oversee or supervise deconstruction activities? Will non- recycled deconstruction debris be directed to a specific facility for disposal? Harnett County contracts with approved demolition contractors to perform the deconstruction and removal of abandoned manufactured homes. Contractors operate under a Scope of Services Agreement that specifies the Standard Operating Procedures for deconstruction, removal, and recycling of specified materials. Demolition contractors are utilized as a resource that will provide all deconstruction, removal, and recycling efforts of the program. Contractors must undergo a background check and be preapproved before being awarded any projects. Contractors must agree to abide by a scope of services agreement before deconstruction services can be rendered. Harnett County shall seek a bid from each of the prequalified contractors to perform deconstruction and removal of the approved AMH projects. Currently, Harnett County has two (2) pre-qualified contractors that actively bid of such projects. Both of the following companies would be subject to receiving funds depending on their respective bids. (Johnny Holder DBA I JKH Trucking and Bob Taylor DBA I Taylor'd Lumber). Prior to deconstruction, contractors are required to perform an inspection to detect and properly remove any materials that are considered hazardous. Staff has the ability to perform unannounced inspections during this process to verify proper actions are being taken. Public education efforts are made through public notices, flyers, brochures, newspaper articles, and outreach efforts through other agencies as well as local municipalities. • A plan for meeting basic recycling requirements when managing AMH units, at a minimum including the recycling of all metals, including siding, roofing, chassis, and window frames. All recyclable materials such as metals and steal that are delivered to a recycle facility must be reported. The classification, weight, and destination of recycled materials must be reported at the end of the project. Contractors are authorized to retain all funds generated from recycled materials that are associated with the deconstruction of homes. This approach has resulted in an increase in recycling efforts by the 4 DENR Contract# 6038 Attachment C contractors. All metallic materials and other items that can be returned to the open market are separated from disposal debris and sent to recycling scrap yards. Other debris including non-hazardous materials is delivered to the county's facilities at Dunn- Erwin Transfer Station and at the Anderson Creek location. • A plan for removal and proper management of mercury thermostats All thermostats located within the homes are removed and packaged to prevent damage during the deconstruction process. Contractors must provide verification of removal and destination of such materials. Contractors are to report the removal and recycling of mercury switches or other hazardous materials located within the homes. Harnett County contracts with Chase Environmental Services to address hazardous products that can be recycled, including mercury. Thermostats from AMHs that are not sent to Chase Environmental Services will go to other area merchants such as a licensed HVAC dealers and installers. The county typically uses a local merchant known as the Tin Shop. • A plan for removal and proper management of fluorescent lights The procedure our contractors must use per county directives for the management of fluorescent lights (i.e. tubes, CFLs, mercury lamps, etc) is the same as for other mercury containing products shown above for thermostats and we use the same contractor. • A plan for removal and proper management of white goods, tires, and other materials banned from disposal in North Carolina All these materials will be handled in accordance with the 'Written Plan" that Harnett County is required to submit under Section Number # 5 of this application on Pages 8 - 12 and its 1 0-Year Solid Waste Management Plan (2009 update). Tires and banned materials are removed from the home prior to deconstruction and properly disposed of in order to reduce the risk of contaminating and materials classified as deconstruction debris. All white goods are required to be removed by the property owner prior to any deconstruction. If any banned items like white goods containing recyclable metals are found at the site, the contractor will be required to send these to the appropriate construction and demolition landfill in the county. Any refrigerants or CFCs will be removed pursuant to applicable laws and guidance. If tires are encountered they will be 5 DENR Contract# 6038 . Attachment C removed by the contractor and would go to Central Carolina Holdings LLC for scrap per the states scrap tire program requirements. • A plan for gathering and tracking program data including the number of units managed and the tonnage and types of materials recycled and disposed for each unit (data on materials landfilfed and recycled is required to be included for each project when seeking reimbursement of grant funds). The program utilizes a tracking system to monitor the progress of the program. A complete log of project data is recorded into the system. Information pertaining to project expenditures as well as disposal and recycling amounts are accessible through this tracking system. The tracking system enables Harnett County to submit quarterly reports, a fiscal year report the grant's progress, support reimbursement requests, and assist in developing information for a final report to the North Carolina Department of Environment and Natural Resources when called upon. For materials recycled or disposed of, the county will require contractors provide receipts of tip fees and weights of these materials for every unit deconstructed and removed. This information will be kept at Harnett County Planning Services and be available to the state staff upon request. The county will keep "before and after photos" of each deconstruction and keep this as part of its records as well. 3. AMH Grant Timeline for Contract Period The contract for this grant has a projected two-year term from July 1, 2014 to June 30, 2016. Key dates for this project are as follows: • July 1, 2014: Initiate AMH Grant Program Operations and Deconstruction Activities; • June 30, 2016: Final Report with final reimbursements approved by DEACS 4. Program Budget Information: The Harnett County abandoned manufactured home plan receives funding each fiscal year through funds generated from the collection of solid waste disposal fees. The budgetary concerns for the program are the continual rising cost of performing the deconstruction and proper disposal of the abandoned manufactured homes. While the property owners are responsible for the cost associated with the disposal fees, the 6 DENR Contract # 6038 Attachment C cost of demolition contractor services and expenditures associated with the management of the program rest solely on Harnett County. In preparing a budget for the program, staff identifies the cost of managing the program along with the expected cost that will be paid to contractors to perform the service of deconstruction and removal. The costs of disposal fees are also shown as expenditure due to the possibility that the funds may not be completely recovered. Any funds that are recovered from disposal fees are simply shown as revenue to the program. Harnett County being designated as a Tier 2 County, respectfully requests the maximum allowed amount of$ 24,000 in grant funding. Costs submitted for reimbursement under the grant program consist of fees that cannot be recouped by Harnett County. These unrecoverable costs include contractor service fees and administrative costs shared by each project. The base fees shown in the "Program Revenues Table" below are used to cover a certain amount of tonnage collected in the deconstruction of a home. The following budget information is based on the anticipated removal of 16 abandoned manufactured homes consisting of singlewides and doublewides.

Written Plan for the Management of Abandoned Manufactured Homes: • A method by which the county proposes to identify abandoned manufactured homes in the county: Harnett County's identities "abandoned manufactured home" in part by the following definition: "A manufactured home that is not being occupied as a dwelling and does not provide complete, independent living facilities for one (1) family, including permanent provisions for living, sleeping, eating cooking, and sanitation; or A manufactured home that has not received the proper permits to be located within the County's jurisdiction; or a manufactured or mobile home that is a health or safety hazard as a result of the attraction of insects or rodents, conditions creating a fire hazard, dangerous condition constituting a threat to children, or frequent use by vagrants as living quarters in the absence of sanitary facilities; or Any structure which is a manufactured or mobile home that was designated and intended for residential or other uses, which has been vacant or not in active use, regardless of purpose or reason, for a two (2) year period and has been deemed a nuisance due to safety or general welfare". In addition, the county uses an inspection process to identify abandoned manufactured homes. Harnett County Planning Services representatives shall perform a site inspection to verify the status of a manufactured home. If the inspection reveals that the criteria of an abandoned manufactured home are present, the home will be declared as such. This inspection process is shown a·s follows: Involuntary Inspection A representative from Harnett County Planning Services may inspect properties that are detected during the course of performing daily duties that appear to meet the criteria of an abandoned manufactured home. Voluntary Inspection A representative from Harnett County Planning Services may inspect properties at the request of the property owner(s) for the purpose of applying for assistance to voluntarily remove an abandoned manufactured home. 8 DENR Contract# 6038 Attachment C • A plan for the removal of the deconstructed components, including mercury switches from thermostats, for reuse or recycling as appropriate. With respect to deconstruction of abandoned manufactured homes (AMHs), the following shall apply to abandoned manufactured homes whether completely intact or partially deconstructed. The contractor shall attempt to remove any recyclable materials from the abandoned manufactured home prior to demolition. Recyclable materials may include but are not limited to: metal, glass, wood, plastics, and thermostats containing mercury switches. The contractor shall deconstruct the home in a manner to minimize airborne debris. The demolition debris shall be contained on-site in a manner that would not cause any adverse effects to adjoining properties. All materials must be delivered to a certified landfill or recycling center. The deconstruction process shall be carried out in a manner as to cause the least amount of disturbance or damage to the subject property. Removal of all demolition debris from the site shall be performed by a vehicle capable of safely transporting materials from the demolition site to a certified landfill or recycling center. During transportation, all debris must remain covered with a tarp or fabric and shall be properly secured, so as not to allow any debris to fall from the vehicle. All debris from any of the deconstructed components must be removed from the property. Contractors must supply Harnett County with verification of removed materials illustrating the amount, type, and destination of all items generated from the site. The demolition contractors are required to level, compact, or fill any portion of the property that is affected by the deconstruction and removal of debris. The contractor shall take all measures possible to minimize any unnecessary disturbance of soil or vegetation on the property. The contractor is required to remove and replace any contaminated soil that results from the spillage of any fluids or hazardous materials from equipment associated with performing the demolition or removal of debris. A site inspection shall be conducted by a Harnett County representative to verify deconstruction of the AMH and that the current lot conditions meet the expectations of the County. A photograph is taken to illustrate the site before and after the project is completed. All hazardous materials must be removed from the structure prior to deconstruction. Any such materials must be properly removed from the demolition site and transported to a center licensed to receive such materials. All hazardous must be removed from the site must be documented to verify proper removal, packaging, and transportation of such materials. The prequalified deconstruction contractors typically remove and deliver items such as mercury switches and fluorescent lighting fixtures to local dealers that conduct proper recycling campaigns. All hazardous materials requiring a higher level of specialized attention are directed to a hazardous materials 11 DENR Contract# 6038 . Attachment C abatement company. Harnett County currently contracts with Chase Environmental for these types of specialized services. Any special wastes encountered at an AMH demolition site (such as tires, white goods, lead-acid batteries, used motor oil, household hazardous wastes, pesticides, or other wastes) will be handled pursuant to the methods outlined in the recent three-year update of Harnett County's 1 0 year Solid Waste Management Plan. This plan is identified in county records as "Solid Waste Management Plan-Harnett County Planning Area-July 1, 2009-July 1, 2019". Most of these materials, particularly metals and white goods, will be managed at the Dunn- Erwin Transfer Station and/ or the Anderson Creek Transfer/Landfill Facilities. Used motor oil is taken upon request by the county to Noble Oil Recyclers. Scrap tires are sent to Central Carolina Holdings LLC. • A plan for the proper disposal of abandoned manufactured homes not deconstructed. Manufactured home deemed abandoned and not deconstructed may be subject to actions specified in county ordinances and state law. All homes deconstructed in Harnett County must conform to the requirements of county ordinances and state rules for solid waste and code enforcement. This is regardless of whether or not the county or the owner of the A~H managed or initiated the demolition project.

The grant administrator for the Area Agency shall be Glenda Dye, Aging Director. The grant administrator for the County shall be the County Manager. 1 DOA-735 (revised 6/13) It is understood and agreed that the grant administrator for the County shall represent the County in the performance of this Agreement. The County shall notify the Area Agency in writing if the administrator changes during the grant period. Specific responsibilities of the grant administrator for the County are provided in paragraph seven (7) of this Agreement. 4. Services authorized through the County Funding Plan, as specified on the Provider Services Summary format(s) (DOA-732) are to commence no later than July I of the state fiscal year and shall be undertaken and pursued in such sequence as to assure their expeditious completion. All services required hereunder shall be completed on or before the end of the Agreement period, June 30 ofthe state fiscal year. 5. Assignability and Contracting. The County shall not assign all or any portion of its interest in this Agreement. Any purchase of services with Home and Community Care Block Grant for Older Adults funding shall be carried out in accordance with the procurement and contracting policy of the community services provider or, where applicable, the Area Agency, which does not conflict with procurement and contracting requirements contained in 45 CPR 92.36. Federal funds shall not be awarded to any subreceipients who have been suspended or debarred by the Federal government. In addition, Federal funds may not be used to purchase goods or services costing over $1 00,000 from a vendor that has been suspended or debarred from Federal grant programs. 6. Compensation and Payments to the County. The County shall be compensated for the work and services actually performed under this Agreement by payments to be made monthly by the Area Agency.

The delivery of commodity and bonus foods is subject to availability. The County will not receive cash entitlement in lieu of commodities that are unavailable or undelivered during the Agreement period. 7. Reallocation of Funds and Budget Revisions. Any reallocation of Block Grant funding between counties shall be voluntary on the part of the County and shall be effective only for the period of the Agreement. The reallocation of Block Grant funds between counties will not affect the allocation of future funding to the County. If during the performance period of the Agreement, the Area Agency determines that a portion of the Block Grant will not be expended, the grant administrator for the County shall be notified in writing by the Area Agency and given the opportunity to make funds available for reallocation to other counties in the Planning and Service Area or elsewhere in the state.

If a budget revision will cause the County to fall below minimum budgeting requirements for any of the aforementioned services, as specified in Division of Aging and Adult Services budgeting instructions issued to the County, the grants administrator for the County shall obtain written approval for the revision from the Area Agency prior to implementation by the community service provider, so as to assure that regional minimum budgeting requirements for the aforementioned services will be met. In the event the Service Provider's rate of progress on the contract is leading to under spending at the end of the contract period, the Area Agency may reallocate Home and Community Care Block Grant funds within the county as necessary to most etiectively utilize funds. Unless community services providers have been given the capacity to enter data into the Agmg Resources Management System (ARMS), Area Agencies on Aging are responsible for entering amended service data into the Division of Aging Management Information System, as specified in the N.C.
