Vice Chairman Nicol made a motion to approve the contract for Mr. Trout and authorize the Chairman to sign the contract. Commissioner Johnson seconded the motion. The motion carried unanimously.

The motion was seconded by Vice Chairman Nicol and carried unanimously. Barry Blevins, General Services Director, requested the Board of Commissioners consider and approve, the reinstatement of passenger fees for the Rural Operating Assistance Program (ROAP). In late March 2020, the North Carolina General Assembly announced the ROAP program would not be funded for fiscal year 2020-2021. Following this announcement, the North Carolina Department of Transportation (NCDOT) informed transit systems that revenue losses could be reimbursed through CARES act funding. To reduce the financial impact on citizens during the COVID pandemic, the Board of Commissioners waived the $3.00 in county and $5.00 out of county fees on April 6, 2020. ROAP funding was included in the State budget approved on November 18, 2021. With funding reinstated, it is a requirement that transit systems collect passenger fees. Commissioner McKoy made a motion to approve the reinstatement of the $3.00 in county and $5.00 out of county fees. Commissioner Johnson seconded the motion. Vice Chairman Nicol asked if staff had received any feedback on pricing. Mr. Blevins stated they had not, however, ridership had increased, likely due to the fees being waived. Mr. Blevins stated if the Board approves the reinstatement of fees he would like that to be effective February 1, 2022. HCBOC 011822 Pg. 5 Item 6Ai Harnett County Board of Commissioners January 3, 2021 Regular Meeting Minutes Page 4 of 6 Commissioner McKoy rescinded her motion. Commissioner McKoy made a motion to approve the reinstatement of the $3.00 in county each way and $5.00 out of county each way fees effective February 1, 2022. Commissioner Johnson seconded the motion which carried unanimously. Mr. Wood stated I would like to recommend some changes to the schedule to present the CIP and for the Planning Retreat. Our new county manager will start work on January 18th. Currently, we have the CIP Presentation scheduled for January 25th. This gives little time for him to review the CIP, or learn some of the key issues that need to be addressed in the Planning Retreat. In talking with the management staff, and the budget director, we want to recommend that you change to the following schedule: February 1, 2022: Present the CIP February 7, 2022: Have a Public Comment Period on the CIP February 16 or nearby date, 2022: Conduct the Planning Retreat I further recommend that you consider using an outside facilitator to conduct the Planning Retreat. Both the UNC School of Government and Mid-Carolina Council of Governments have personnel that can perform this function. This frees up the county manager to fully participate in the discussion, without also having to facilitate the meeting. I have done retreats both ways, and I highly recommend you use the outside facilitator. The Commissioners discussed dates and the use of an outside facilitator. Commissioner McKoy made a motion for staff to present the CIP on February 1, hold a public comment for the CIP on February 7th and hold the annual Planning Retreat on February 17, 2022. The motion was seconded by Commissioner Johnson and carried unanimously. Chairman Weatherspoon, Mr. Wood and Ms. Capps will work on a location for the Planning Retreat. Mr. Wood reviewed a recommendation on Harnett Regional Water pay adjustments. As you know, we continue to struggle with a higher than normal employee turnover rate. We have tried to address some departments already, and need to address the other departments as quickly as possible. Otherwise, we will continue to be a training ground for other jurisdictions that have higher pay. This is the key issue you will face in the coming budget, and sooner, if we can find the money. The sales tax is coming in higher than budgeted, and we have solid numbers for July through September. That is one avenue of getting some of the necessary money. Steve and I are recommending that you take each position in HRW up by two grades. This is roughly a 10% increase per employee. If you approve these on January 3, 2022, they would go into effect on the January 16th pay period. This comparable to what we did for the Sheriff's Department, EMS, HARTS, and the building inspectors. Per our budget director, a salary and benefits increase for half a year would be $322,027; and for a full year $644,053.49. Fortunately, HRW is a standalone enterprise fund, with its revenues being the charges for water and sewer services. There are more than sufficient funds in their reserves to pay for these increases. Consequently there is no financial reason to delay giving these raises until the start of the next fiscal year; and operationally we need to address this problem as soon as possible. Vice Chairman Nicol commented this is outstanding, a long time coming; I would like to thank the staff. HCBOC 011822 Pg. 6 Item 6Ai Harnett County Board of Commissioners January 3, 2021 Regular Meeting Minutes Page 5 of 6 Commissioner McKoy also commented for items 9 and 10 I will wholeheartedly approve this, we need to value our employees. Vice Chairman Nicol made a motion to approve the recommendation to take each position in HRW up by two grades. The motion was seconded by Commissioner Johnson and carried unanimously. Commissioner McKoy made a motion to approve the ordinance amending the job classification and compensation plan. Mr. Wood stated there are two critical pieces of information your staff had been waiting on to move forward. The first is the Audit for FY 2021 received this month, which revealed we had added to our fund balance by underspending the budget and revenues coming in higher than budgeted. This increased our unassigned General Fund balance to 28% of expenditures. Our target is 20%. So, that gives us a cushion going forward, meaning we can appropriate additional fund balance without a problem, as we would not actually spend it. The second is whether the sales tax revenue would come in higher than budgeted (like the property tax mentioned earlier). Sales tax is received by the county from the NC Department of Revenue monthly, with a three month lag time. That means that in early December, we had received actual receipts for July, August, and September. We would like a few more months to verify the trend, but we believe that we can conservatively estimate that sales tax revenue for the full fiscal year will be at least $1,000,000 higher than budgeted. So, we now have the necessary information on these two funding sources. Given the high turnover problem that must be addressed, and the new information discussed above, I have met with the two assistant managers, budget director and finance director, and we believe we have sufficient recurring revenues identified so that we can move forward with a two grade reclassification of all of the county positions that have not received the roughly 10% increase as previously outlined above. Each grade is about 5% higher than the previous grade, so these increases would be the same as given to the employees noted above. We believe it is critical to do this as soon as possible to address the employee turnover problem and allow the County to recruit and retain a qualified workforce going forward. Therefore, we recommend that you adopt the attached ordinance amending the job classification and compensation plan at your January 3, 2022 meeting. If you approve this recommendation, the raises would become effective beginning with the January 16, 2022 pay period, which ends on February 15, 2022, with payment to employees on February 28, 2022. Mr. Haney reviewed the exceptions with are included in the Ordinance. Commissioner McKoy asked a question regarding the Board of Elections. Mr. Haney shared information regarding the Deputy Director position for the Board of Elections. Vice Chairman Nicol seconded the motion to approve the ordinance amending the job classification and compensation plan. The motion carried unanimously. (Attachment 4) Mr. Wood thanked the Board of Commissioners. Chairman Weatherspoon thanked the committee for their hard work on this issue. Chairman Weatherspoon recognized Mr. Christian Lockamy, the new Economic Development Director. Mr. Wood provided information on a Jetport Budget Amendment. Mr. Wood stated we took the airport over on June 17th and we came to you prior to that time with a proposed amendment with HCBOC 011822 Pg. 7 Item 6Ai Harnett County Board of Commissioners January 3, 2021 Regular Meeting Minutes Page 6 of 6 an estimate with an understanding that we would like to get several months under our belt and have a good trend line and come back with an amended budget. The good news is we are taking in about $111,000 in revenues than we had anticipated. Chairman Weatherspoon asked for clarification on a couple of items. Mr. Wood also shared information on considering a recommendation on HR Jetport Fuel Purchasing Contract bids. Commissioner Johnson made a motion to add this item to the February 11, 2022 work session to be voted on at the work session. The motion was seconded by Vice Chairman Nicol and carried unanimously. Vice Chairman Nicol made a motion to approve the budget amendment for the Jetport. The motion was seconded by Commissioner Johnson and carried unanimously. Coley Price, Assistant County Manager, introduced Mr. Christian Lockamy, the new Economic Development Director. Mr. Lockamy stated I am really glad to be here, I think I can help you guys focus in the areas that will make the most difference for the community. Mr. Wood stated the Harnett County DSS Monthly report, interdepartmental budget amendments, the North Carolina Department of State Treasurer Retirement System Division – Contribution-Based Benefit Cap Report and Johnston-Lee-Harnett Community Action, Inc.’s Community Services Block Grant Application were included in the agenda packet for information. Commissioner McKoy made a motion to go into Closed Session for the following purpose: To consult with the County’s legal counsel in order to preserve the attorney-client privilege concerning the handling of certain claims and litigation including the following case: (1) Terry Antoine Frederick vs. Nurse Meygen, et. Al. U.S. District Court, File No. 5:21- ct-3240-D; and (2) Patricia Rivera vs. County of Harnett; Industrial Commissioner File No. 21-009812. This motion is made pursuant to NC General Statute Section 143-318.11 (a)(3). The motion was seconded by Vice Chairman Nicol and carried unanimously. Following a motion to come out of Closed Session, Chairman Weatherspoon called the meeting back into open session. Vice Chairman Nicol made a motion to adjourn at 10:34 am. The motion was seconded by Commissioner Johnson and carried unanimously. ____________________________________ ___________________________________ Lewis W. Weatherspoon, Chairman Melissa D.
