the Bland tract; and
WHEREAS, the BOE and the County Commissioners jointly sought the approval of
the Local Government Commission with respect to the financing of the new Boone Trail
Elementary project; passed resolutions and entered into agreements to facilitate the financing
of the project; and worked closely on this project before, during, and after the purchase of the
tracts; and
WHEREAS, the BOE obtained the approval of the County Planning Board to
recombine the three tracts; caused a Boundary and Recombination Map to be filed in the
Office of the Register of Deeds; transferred the recombined tract to the County of Harnett by
deed; and, pursuant to the Lease and Agency Agreements entered into by the two Boards,
began construction of the new Boone Trail Elementary School and said construction is
currently ongoing; and
WHEREAS, the BOE on December 1, 2009, unanimously adopted a resolution
entitled "Resolution Asking the Harnett County Board of Commissioners to Ratify the
Purchase of the New Boone Trail Elementary Tracts" which was forwarded to the Hamett
County Board of Commissioners for its consideration; that on said resolution request, the
BOE found that it purchased all three tracts for a fair price, following proper and arms - length
negotiations with the respective sellers and that the BOE purchased all three tracts with funds
budgeted for capital expenses in the year of purchase; that the BOE further stated that it had
inadvertently failed to bring the purchase of the Bland tract to the County Commissioners for
its approval, and the BOE further noted that when the other two school site tract purchases
were approved by the County Commissioners on September 17, 2007, that the minutes of the
Commissioners' meeting did not include the purchase price of said tracts. That the BOE has
requested that the Harnett County Board of Commissioners ratify and approve the purchase
of all three real property tracts that constitute the new Boone Trail Elementary School site.
NOW, THEREFORE, BE IT RESOLVED, that based upon the resolution request of
the Harnett County Board of Education and pursuant to N. C. General Statutes, Section

purchases by the Harnett County Board of Education of those real property tracts which
