(HHS) and Cumberland County Hospital System, Inc., d/b/a Cape Fear Valley Health System (Cape Fear). He noted as part of the agreement between HHS and Cape Fear, which was effective November 3, 2014, the two local governments involved with HHS; the City of Dunn and Harnett County, were asked to be a part of a resolution that would approve the MSA amongst other things.

Under there terms of the MSA, Cape Fear has the option to purchase forty-nine percent (49%) of that entity and eventually to purchase all of that entity. He stressed that at no time would the real estate consisting of the Betsy Johnson Regional Hospital facility and Central Harnett Hospital facility be included in the transfer to the Newco as they will remain the property ofHHS subject to the various restrictive covenants of record. Mrs. Thompson mentioned the 2005 Memorandum of Understanding between Harnett County and the City of Dunn along with WakeMed that created the HHS. Mr. Thompson noted the County of Harnett, through the Harnett Forward Together Committee (HFTC), donated over 20 acres ofland for the construction of the new Central Harnett facility which reverts back to HFTC if it ceases to be a healthcare facility.

Mr. Thompson continued to discuss terms of the MSA including a lease obligation, management fees and a $10 Million line of credit made available to HHS. Mr. Thompson clarified the request for endorsement was not a legal requirement however all involved active participates wanted this to be completely transparent. Mr. Nagowski spoke in favor of this request. He said Cape Fear is excited and proud to have been selected as a partner with HHS. Mr. Nagowski said they understand how important it is for healthcare to continue to grow and thrives and believe healthcare should be local.

Dr. Wallace thanked Mrs. Hill for being his commissioner, for standing for what is right for Harnett County and for supporting Campbell University. Dr. Wall ace asked commissioner to support this recommendation as he believes this new relationship will be good for the County and Campbell University. Dr. Wallace said within four years Campbell University will have more than 2000 health professional students studying in Harnett County.

Mr. Springfield reported the ROAP funds are utilized to for the operating costs of trips and other transportation services.

Employment Transportation Assistance Program (EMP) provides transportation for the general public to employment locations, employment training, and any other employment related destinations-$32,313; and ,. Rural General Public Program (RGP) funds are intended to provide transportation for individuals of the County who do not have a human service agency or organization that will pay for their transportation services -$1 02,506 and requires a 1 0% match. Mr. Springfield reported the FY 2016 Community Transportation Program (HARTS) provides assistance to coordinate existing transportation programs operating in Harnett County as well as provides transportation options and services for the community within the service area. These services are currently provided using demand response and subscription routes. The 5311 Community Transportation Program intends to enhance the access of people in non-urbanized areas to health care, shopping, education, employment, public services and recreation.

Mr. Springfield requested approval ofboth of these applications and the resolution to apply for these funds. Mr. Springfield asked the public to fill out a Public Involvement Voluntary Title VI form made available during the meeting.

Chairman Miller called to order a public hearing on the matter and opened the meeting for comments from the public. Seeing no one move, Chairman Miller closed the public hearing. Commissioner Springle moved to approve the applications for both grants and resolution. Commissioner Burgin seconded the motion which passed unanimously. (Attachment 6) Mark Locklear, Planning Services Director, petitioned the Board for a public hearing on proposed text amendments, Harnett County Unified Development Ordinance, Revisions to Article V (Use Regulations), Section 7.5.6 (Firing Ranges). On behalf of the Planning Department, Mr. Locklear thanked Commissioners Hill and House for their years of service and said it has been a pleasure serving them throughout the years. Mr. Locklear stated the proposed text amendment was developed to address the use of commercially operating firing ranges and November 17, 2014, Regular Meeting Minutes Harnett County Board of Commissioners Page 6 of8 HC BOC 120114 Page 8 the effects of such ranges upon adjacent and surrounding communities. Mr. Locklear stressed this amendment is solely intended to be applied to commercial operating ranges only. The private use of firing ranges located on residential properties is not affected by these regulations. This amendment is to allow for safe operation of such ranges and help protect the adjacent properties and the health, safety and welfare for Harnett County Citizens. Mr. Locklear noted Commissioners Miller and Springle served on this steering committee which also included Board of Adjustment members, existing range owners and citizens. He said this was a long process but a good learning experience. Mr. Locklear thinks they have put together some successful and innovative thinking when it comes to regulations for firing ranges. He noted they started this process in April 2013 and thirteen drafts were prepared throughout the process. Mr. Locklear said they learned that one size does not fit all when it comes to gun ranges. The committee ended up taking the approach that it didn't matter the piece ofland, it just mattered to design it using whatever requirements were made available to them to make it safe and then go before the Board of Adjustment. Mr. Locklear reported staff hired a private range consultant to evaluate their regulations and to look at what they have put in place. They also asked the consultants to go out and look at some of our existing ranges and give some suggestions on possibly making those ranges safer. Mr. Locklear said staff wants to make sure the public knows exactly what they are doing when it comes to text amendments and give them an opportunity to comment. He said staff is trying harder to get the word out on the website and using social media. Mr. Locklear reported that the Harnett County Planning Board tabled the text amendment on October 6, 2014 for further information, from staff, on insurance liability and professional cost related to engineers, environmental, range design, etc. On November 3, 2014, after discussion of the above reference issues, the Harnett County Planning Board voted unanimously to recommend approval of the text amendment application. Mr. Locklear also shared a Suggested Statement of Consistency, which was provided to commissioners at the meeting and is required for text amendments. Randy Baker, Senior Zoning Inspector, thanked the committee members for their assistance and cooperation. Mr. Baker emphasized that a lot of the proposed regulations will put emphasis on the conditional use approval process. All firing ranges must receive a conditional use approval from the Harnett County Board of Adjustments, meet any condition that they may place on it as well as meet the design requirements stated in the proposed amendment. Mr. Baker said this is very technical and to ensure the safety and the well-being of the citizens they have incorporated that the professional design element must be added to the design of these ranges. He said they learned a firing range is designed for the discharge of firearms not for the explosion of explosive devices which is an entirely separate range. Mr. Baker said this document will limit the ability to explode things on a firing range. He noted the addition of zoning compliance inspections where staff will perform an annual inspection to verify the range is continuing to be operated in the manner it was approved in. Mr. Baker said they went through the amortization process for existing ranges effective upon adoption of this ordinance. Commissioners Miller and Springle November 17, 2014, Regular Meeting Minutes Harnett County Board of Commissioners Page 7 of8 HC BOC 120114 Page 9 agreed this process was a good community effort, they learned a lot and think it was a great way to handle this situation. Chairman Miller called to order a public hearing on the matter and opened the meeting for comments from the public. Paul Long of 601 Old Buies Creek Road in Angier said he has had guns all his life and voiced concern regarding more regulations. He said he believes this is a good ordinance but said the citizens need to watch out because they are not always getting the whole truth. Seeing no one else move, Chairman Miller closed the public hearing. Chairman Miller moved to approved the proposed text amendment citing the requested text amendment is compatible with Harnett County's regulatory documents and would promote public health, safety, and general welfare ofthe County, as well as maintain orderly and compatible land use and development patterns and encourage environmentally responsible development practices, as described within the facility design and environmental management sections of the document. Commissioner Springle seconded the motion which passed unanimously. County Manager Mr. Bums presented the following reports: -Veterans Affairs Activities Report-October 2014 -Interdepartmental Budget Amendments -Planning Services report -October 2014 Mr. Bums noted that the Harnett County Board of Elections is currently working on certifying the bond election results which will cause this Board to approve a resolution accepting those bond results as required to continue this bond process. Mr. Bums announce the retirement of Assistant Emergency Management Director Beverly Williams and School Superintendent Tom Frye. Mr. Bums also noted that the Board had recently received his resignation effective December 1st. Mr. Bums said this was the most mentally labor intensive decision he has ever had to make but believes it's a good professional opportunity for him to continue in his career. Chairman Miller called for any new business. Commissioner House addressed the group. There was no need for closed session. Chairman Miller reminded the group of the reception immediately following the meeting. Commissioner Springle moved to adjourn the meeting at 8:57pm. Commissioner Hill seconded the motion which passed unanimously.

Most of the excess vehicles were removed from the inventory culminating in select vehicles being donated to ecce on or about March 2014. However there were some vehicles that remained in the inventory to be used as an economical way to gleen spare parts and equipment. With the new state contract days away and the reception of new CSI vehicles, six Harnett County Sheriff Vehicles remain in the inventory and should be re-aligned and donated to CCCC. These vehicles have very little value for resale, are partially roadworthy and are not benefitting the county by remaining on the books. The partially equipped emergency equipment existing on the vehicles are part of the "strobe and separate siren, light control system". They are no longer on the market and serve very little resale value to the Law Enforcement community. Proposal: Donate the following vehicles complete with partially installed emergency Equipment.

House, Vice Chairman Jim Burgin NCACC Beatrice B. Hill Attn. Johanna Reese 215 N. Dawson Street Raleigh, NC 27603 C. Gordon Springle Gina Wheeler, Clerk to the Board Dear Mrs. Reese: On behalf of the Harnett County Board of Commissioners I respectfully submit the following legislative goals as priorities for the County of Harnett, North Carolina: 1. Allow counties to use E-911 funds for E-911 needs other than equipment; PO Box759 102 E. Front Street lillington, NC 27546 ph: 910-893-7555 fax: 910-814-2662 2. Continue to lobby for counties to receive the maximum allocation from lottery funds; 3. Allow counties the same authority as municipalities regarding recreational fees charged to developers; 4. Provide relief for rural hospitals; 5. Change system of funding DOT projects to assist rural counties, which are negatively impacted under the current funding system; 6. Support the public behavioral health managed care organization model currently in place with an emphasis on local treatment facilities. 7. Allow counties the flexibility to charge a school impact fee where districts are overcapacity, with fees to be used solely for the identified impacted area. 8. Allow counties to participate in the state health plan; 9. ClarifY sales tax distribution by county rather than zip code; 10. Expand broadband into rural counties and pursue funding options i.e. grants or loans; 11. Restore funding to State Aid to Public Libraries Fund to the pre-2011 level of $15.7 million; and eliminate special provisions that distribute State Aid outside of the equitable formula developed by the State Library Commission; and 12. Study leachate generated from LCID landfills and define best management practices (BMPs) for on-site management of leachate which could include spray irrigation. We appreciate the Association's hard work on behalf of the counties. If you have any questions regarding our legislative goals please feel free to contact Harnett County Manager Tommy Bums at (91 0)893-7555 or tburns(@,hamett.org. s(/: Jo~ Harnett County Board of Commissioners strong roots • new growth HC BOC 120114 Page 82
