Discussion on Permanently Waiving Library Fines City Manager Neuschafer presented request from County Library system as well as Librarian Williams on going fine free, which has become a trend in libraries over the past three years. The rationale is that collecting overdue fines, which are fines the library assesses for materials that are returned late, interferes with the library's mission to provide services to all citizens in its service area. There is almost a direct correlation between areas of financial need in Harnett County and library accounts with fines outstanding. It is believed that in some cases, the effect of such fines will cause library users to stay away from the library because they don't;, ant to be confronted about fines. As a consequence overdue library materials are not returned. The County Board of Commissioners have agreed to proceed with eliminatinglafe,fines for materials checked out by customers to include historical, currently outstanding and all future late'fines The Library will instead bill for the cost of lost items and block patron from card access if items are notreturned m:'a reasonable amount of time. The Harnett County Public Library has not yet implemented this pole, pending a vote f tom the governing boards of each of the libraries to go fine free. Dunn Public Library's advisory board has appraed;going fine free. If one library in the county does not approve, the policy can't be implemented in Harnett County sine. the libraries share an integrated library circulation system. Annual collections of%fines and other fees for the hbr ,y is,about $5,000 thus a portion of this revenue will be unrealized. If approved, changes are to'be in place this spring, ' Motion by Council Member Turnage and second by Mayor Pro fees. Motion unanimously approved.

Special events may include but are not limited to such activities as festivals, fairs, tours, concerts, holiday celebrations, grand opening celebrations, certain outdoor business promotional events, bicycle races, runs, parades, marches and processions and motorcades. Individuals or groups wishing to hold events on public property, or on private property but with an impact on public property such as streets, within the City limits, including City parks, must obtain a Special Event Permit from the City of Dunn. Event sponsors should submit applications at least 60 days prior to the proposed event. Some Key Points Permit posting: Special event permits should be posted at greeting areas or main entrances at events.

BACKGROUND: The Alley Condition Report was presented to the Council in December 2019. The next discussion was held at a Special Called Meeting on October 6, 2020, (See attachment) BUDGET IMPACT: Closing alleys throughout the City will incur expenses related to staff time and advertising cost for required public notices. Upon deciding to close a ROW, a decision will also need to be made on hiring a surveyor to recombine the properties and record a new map to finalize the closure process. The cost of this final step is influenced by many factors and could be as much as $10,000 per block. This final step has historically been left to individual property owners, therefore, the official map of the City does not reflect all closed alleys due to the lack of completed surveys and recorded maps. Motion to direct the City manager to identify alley segments with limited con wide value and present that list to the Council at the regular March meeting. Excerpt from SpeeiaCCa(CedWeeting, October 6, 2020, pages 108-110 in the Offi'ciafWinute Book -Begin Excerpt: Dunn City Council Special Called Meeting Tuesday, October 6, 2020 3:00 p.m., Dunn Municipal Building Minutes PRESENT: Mayor William P. Elmore Jr., Mayor Pro Tem Chuck Turnage, Council Members J. Wesley Sills, April Gaulden, Frank McLean, Billy N. Tart, and Dr. David L. Bradham. Notice, relating to the Special Meeting Conditions, is incorporated into these minutes as Attachment #1. Also present: City Manager Steven Neuschafer, Assistant City Manager Mathew Boone, Finance Director Jim Roberts, Public Utilities Director Heather Adams, Plan ing Director George Adler, Chief Bu ilding Inspector Steven King, Chief of Police Clark White, Parks and Recreation Director Brian McNeill, Librarian Mike Williams, Communications Coordinator Kaitlin Adkins, City Attorney Tilghman Pope, and City Clerk Tammy Williams. CALL TO ORDER AND INVOCATION Mayor Elmore opened the meeting at 3:00 p.m. and City Council Member Gaulden gave the invocation. Afterwards, Mayor Pro Tern Turnage led in the Pledge of Allegiance. Review and Discussion on City's Alley Assessment Report Planning Director Adler shared that the alley report distributed to Council in December 2019 was a report on the staffs study of the City's alleys. The city has 110 alleys and 53 are rated to potentially be closed while others are rated from good to needing work, He pointed out that the city will need to determine what process to follow. Who will handle the costs of closing to include advertising for public hearings, surveys, recording fees, and informing adjacent property owners? For alleys kept open, what is the criteria for maintenance? Each alley has to be looked at individually, to determine if the alley contains utility lines or is it a driveway or pedestrian path. If a right of way is closed, the property automatically reverts to the property owners whether they want it or not. Need to develop process for closing the alleys and decide if the City wants to absorb the cost or if the city could assess the property owner. Attorney Pope added that he was not sure the city could assess property owners for something they do not want. Currently, the city has a lot of right of ways not being maintained. Consensus was that more study of the process is needed to determine how to evaluate the alleys and move forward with a decision to be made within the next year. With no further business to discuss, the meeting was adjourned at 5:22 p.m. EndBxcerpt: Submitted 6y City of Dunn Clerk Tammy'Wiffiams January 11, 2022 � $ / § ( f \ Lu \ m A 3 ! $ . .1� i V W 7 tl0 C N L.

BACKGROUND: The 2021 American Rescue Plan provides funds through the State Fiscal Recovery Fund that the NC General Assembly allocated as 100% grants. The City of Dunn was a recipient of $30,450,000 in appropriated funds to be used for Drinking Water and/or Wastewater Infrastructure Projects. City Staff is recommending two wastewater projects. Project #1- Install a parallel effluent force main from the Black River WWTP to the Cape Fear River (approximately 3 Miles) and effluent pump station improvements to increase pumping capacity and to eliminate the sanitary sewer overflows on the Black River Outfall Line. Project #1 is estimated at $16,100,000. Project #2- Construct a new outfall line from Machine & Welding to the WWTP, upgrade Eastside Pump Station, reroute the Eastside Force main to the new outfall line, and eliminate the Machine & Welding Pump Station. These improvements would increase the pumping capacity at Eastside Pump Station and will take flow off the Juniper Creek Outfall, thus eliminating overflows at Eastside Pump Station and the Black River Outfall line, Project #2 is estimated at $15,850,000, BUDGET IMPACT: $30,450,000 is 100% grant with no City match. The City will be reimbursed as eligible expenses are submitted to the NC Division of Water Infrastructure. To fund the remaining balance, the City could use the American Rescue Plan funds that were allocated by the Federal Government. The City received $1,540,000 in July 2021 and will receive another $1,540,000 in July 2022. Both of these disbursements are also 100% grant with no local match. The engineering fee to assist with the funding applications is $2,500 and will be taken out the 2021-2022 Water/Sewer Budget. Motion to approve the resolution allowing the City Manager to submit applications to the Division of Water Infrastructure for the identified wastewater projects as presented. Resolution Authorizing City Manager to Request Funds Appropriated through the 2021 American Rescue Plan Act WHEREAS, the North Carolina General Assembly appropriated 2021 American Rescue Plan (ARP) funding to the City of Dunn through the Department of Environmental Quality (DEQ) in the 2021-2022 Budget for projects as approved in Session Law 2021-180, Section 12.13.(f); and WHEREAS, the City of Dunn appropriations include $30,450,000 for Drinking Water and Wastewater Directed Projects; and WHEREAS, the appropriated Drinking Water and Wastewater funds must be requested by the City of Dunn's Authorized Representative through the Department of Environmental Quality with certain funding requirements and milestones for the approved infrastructure projects; and THEREFORE, BE IT RESOLVED that the Dunn City Council authorizes that Steven Neuschafer, City Manager, and successor so titled, is hereby authorized and directed to request funds as allocated through the 2021-2020 NC State Budget Appropriations for qualified Drinking Water and Wastewater projects; to furnish such information as may be requested by the State or DEQ; and to make assurances to comply with necessary requirements in connection to the appropriations.

DAVIs • MARTIN • POWELL mmm ENGINEERS & SURVEYORS December 30, 2021 Re: City of Dunn, NC The 2021 American Rescue Plan (ARP) Funding Application Assistance S.L. 2021-180 Appropriated Projects On -call Task Order Ms. Heather Adams Public Utilities Director City of Dunn PO Box 1065 Dunn, NC 28335 Dear Heather: Davis • Martin • Powell & Associates (DMP), is pleased to offer our proposal for Professional Services to provide the City of Dunn with assistance related to applications for funding assistance for the projects being proposed for the 2021 American Rescue Plan (ARP) Funds appropriated to the City. Background As the City's Engineer of Record, dating back to the 1970's, DMP has assisted the City with many successful wastewater collection system, pump station, and WWTP Projects. As infrastructure continues to age and the City continues to grow, and with the City currently under a moratorium, both the City and DMP recognize the Importance of continuing to improve the infrastructure associated with the City's wastewater system. Since the early 2000's, the City has engaged DMP to assist with a long term plan to improve conveyance from the City's Eastside Pump Station to the Black River WWTP as well as improve the hydraulic capacity within the WWTP. In 2007, the City selected DMP to design improvements related to both the Eastside Pump Station and the WWTP. The Eastside Pump Station was rebuilt and a portion of new forcemain was constructed to increase the flow capacity. In addition, at the WWTP, a new Influent pump station and preliminary treatment facilities including new screens, grit removal and a 3.0 MGD equalization basin were constructed to assist with high flows. In 2017, DMP again assisted the City with the next phase of WWTP Improvements, which included a new aeration diffuser system, air piping, and blowers. At this time, DMP is working on the next phase of the WWTP improvements through a project that has received an Intent to Fund from the State SRF program. This project will add a new clarifier and improve the WWTP disinfection system. All these improvements have provided significant benefits to the City. Two additional projects, which build on the culmination of Improvements completed over the last two decades, include improvements to the Highway 301 corridor, Including modifications to the Eastside Pumping System & FM and new WWTP Effluent Conveyance System to the Cape Fear River. ® The Highway 301 Corridor Improvements project would improve the Eastside Pumping System, re-route the Eastside forcemain and direct flow to a new outfall proposed from the WWTP to the Highway 301 Corridor. The additional pumping capacity will help eliminate overflows at the Eastside PS and the new forcemain and outfall will remove a significant amount of flow from the existing Juniper Creek Outfall, which has a history of overflows at MH BR-8 near the WWTP.

The existing effluent force main is 40 years old, and nearing the end of its useful life. The Effluent Conveyance System will be designed to accommodate future WWTP capacity expansion, and lower energy consumption as compared to the current effluent pumps. Another benefit to the City is that both projects provide the City with the infrastructure and capacity to promote future development along 1-95 and along the 301 South corridor. Project Description The City of Dunn has received notification of funds appropriated in the North Carolina FY 2021-22 Budget. This funding is through the Department of Environmental Quality (DEQ) and the funding will be administered through the NC DEQ/Division of Water Infrastructure. The City received funding in the amount of $30,450,000 through the Drinking Water and Wastewater Reserve — Other Projects (S.L. 2021-180, Section 12.13.(f )) fund. Through discussions with City staff, Is has been determined that the most effective use of the appropriated funds is for the two projects described. Funding received from the 2021 American Rescue Plan (ARP), will be administered through NCDEQ Division of Water Infrastructure. DMP will prepare separate application packages for both projects to pursue funding. Scope of Services DMP's Scope of Work will include the following tasks: Task 0001.
