ing for a site in the Mamers area. Neill Ross talked on the Mamers
site and he suggested that the Sheriff's office be alerted to the

ing of trash in a closed site.

on page 468.1

QUARTERLY REPORT BY County Auditor and Clerk to the Board, H. D. Carson, Jr., appeare
H. D. CARSON, JR. before the Board and presented the Quarterly Report for the year
ending June 30, 1975, and discussed with the Board. Mr. Carson
also presented the annual Revenue Sharing report for approval.
MIKE DONOVAN, COUNTY Mike Donovan, County Surveyor, appeared before the Board to dis-
ISURVEYOR cuss the county -wide tax mapping and presented a proposal entitle
"PROPOSAL FOR HARNETT COUNTY TAX MAPS" and it follows:
Tax Maps- -What are they? They are visual depiction of the land on '+
which we live.
As the Tax Supervisor stated two weeks ago at aboard meeting. Sampson
County has them, Cumberland County has them with an Engineering staff to do
the research and drafting, Wake County has them, and Robinson County is in
the process of securing maps now commercially.
There are two ways to secure these maps: one being to pay an aerial':
photogrammetric firm to fly the county and produce the maps. (Small scale
maps 1" = 300'. for rural areas; 1" = 100' for urban areas; and large scale
maps in towns. Topography can also be secured.) The other way is to make
copies of the present ASCS mapsand -begin to put the information on them.
The property owners names, farm numbers, and tax office information can be
placed on the maps by Pace or man power workers taking about six months to
one year part time.
There can be no long -range planning of any kind done without maps.
The county water system had to be drawn from compiled maps at a large expens
to the county. The county landfills are done on an on- the - ground basis rather
than from maps and the new schools and the accompanying sites were done the
same way. I feel this county in the near future will have county land plan-
ning, county zoning and a county subdivision and trailer park ordinances.
The County Board of Health, Soils Conservation Service, Board of Education,
Tax Department, the Municipalities of the County, and the Public Utilities
in the county, as well as all attorneys, land surveyors, and the general public
would benefit from having these maps. They are the basic precept of all
growth; whether industrial, residential or commercial.
As it now stands, there is no co- ordination of mapping and surveys
being produced in this county.. I propose that the county surveyor be allowe
to compile in an unrecorded county surveyor file, for public use, the infor-
mation contained in recorded maps in the Register of Deeds office; copies
of maps of currently practicing surveyors (Walter Lee Johnson, C. H. Blue,
W. R. Lambert, W. J. Lambert, & C. W. Russum); copies of my maps which span
back to 1945; copies of maps of 0. S. Yound and G. R. Johnson (deceased
surveyors);; copies of maps contained in Attorney Stephenson's office in
Angier; copies of pertinent maps that South River EMC and CP &L; and copies
of Campbell College, Burlington Industries, and the Municipalities (Subdivi-
sions, estate divisions, and major boundary line surveys.) All of this
mass of information would be compiled and placed on the tax maps themselves
to be placed in the Tax Supervisor's office. All the additional maps and
information would be transferred to the Tax Dept. at such time as a full ti
Engineering. staff was created. This is an attempt to make public and usuable
the mass of small bits of information to create an overall view of an area
of land. This information would tie in exactly with the present county soils
survey being conducted. If
In the future, a complete commercial set of tax maps will be necessa y
but everything that we do now will decrease that cost by a large percent an
will be transferrable directly to them. r have personally been accumulating
maps for ten years for this purpose and hope you see fit to allow me to pro
ceed with all or part of this program.
