America’s Workers. See also Office of Management and Budget (OMB),
Memorandum M-22-11, Initial Implementation Guidance on Application of Buy
America Preference in Federal Financial Assistance Programs for
Infrastructure. Recipients and subrecipients of federal financial assistance
programs for infrastructure are hereby notified that none of the funds provided
under this award may be used for a project for infrastructure unless: (1) all iron
and steel used in the project are produced in the United States--this means all
manufacturing processes, from the initial melting stage through the application
of coatings, occurred in the United States; (2) all manufactured products used
in the project are produced in the United States—this means the manufactured
product was manufactured in the United States; and the cost of the
components of the manufactured product that are mined, produced, or
manufactured in the United States is greater than 55 percent of the total cost of
all components of the manufactured product, unless another standard for
determining the minimum amount of domestic content of the manufactured
product has been established under applicable law or regulation; and (3) all
construction materials are manufactured in the United States—this means that
all manufacturing processes for the construction material occurred in the
United States. The Buy America preference only applies to articles, materials,
and supplies that are consumed in, incorporated into, or affixed to an
infrastructure project. As such, it does not apply to tools, equipment, and
supplies, such as temporary scaffolding, brought to the construction site and
removed at or before the completion of the infrastructure project. Nor does a
Buy America preference apply to equipment and furnishings, such as movable
chairs, desks, and portable computer equipment, that are used at or within the
finished infrastructure project, but are not an integral part of the structure or
HCBOC 110122 ws Pg. 58
permanently affixed to the infrastructure project. When necessary, recipients
may apply for, and the agency may grant, a waiver from these requirements.
(a) When the federal agency has made a determination that one of the
following exceptions applies, the awarding official may waive the application of
the domestic content procurement preference in any case in which the agency
determines that: (1) applying the domestic content procurement preference
would be inconsistent with the public interest; (2) the types of iron, steel,
manufactured products, or construction materials are not produced in the
United States in sufficient and reasonably available quantities or of a
satisfactory quality; or (3) the inclusion of iron, steel, manufactured products, or
construction materials produced in the United States will increase the cost of
the overall project by more than 25 percent. A request to waive the application
of the domestic content procurement preference must be in writing. The
agency will provide instructions on the format, contents, and supporting
materials required for any waiver request. Waiver requests are subject to
public comment periods of no less than 15 days and must be reviewed by the
OMB Made in America Office. There may be instances where an award
qualifies, in whole or in part, for an existing waiver described. For awards by
the Federal Emergency Management Agency (FEMA), existing waivers are
available and the waiver process is described at 'Buy America' Preference in
FEMA Financial Assistance Programs for Infrastructure | FEMA.gov. For
awards by other DHS components, please contact the applicable DHS FAO.
To see whether a particular DHS federal financial assistance program is

FEMA awards, please see Programs and Definitions: Build America, Buy
America Act | FEMA.gov.

Evaluation
Yes No The IMPACT to the adjacent property owners and the surrounding community is
reasonable, and the benefits of the rezoning outweigh any potential inconvenience or
harm to the community.
REASONING: The impact to the surrounding community is not reasonable as it is
predominately zoned Commercial. Also, the impact to Hwy 421 potentially becoming I-
685 could be an economic stimulator for this area. As per discussion with Harnett
County Economic Development Dept, the amount of commercially zoned property in
this area could support a retail center. This site is conveniently located in between
Sanford commercial areas and Lillington commercial areas (~11 miles from both).
Yes No The requested zoning district is COMPATIBLE with the existing Land Use Classification.
REASONING: The majority of the property is classified as Agriculture & Rural
Residential. The requested zoning to RA-30 is compatible with this land use
classification. These are primarily agricultural areas and located outside of existing &
future sewer service areas. However, there is Rural Center Development Node in the
area and does include a portion of this property.
Yes No The proposal does ENHANCE or maintain the public health, safety and general welfare.
REASONING: The proposal does not enhance the overall general welfare of the
communit. Several compatiable, non-residential uses are present in this area and the
uses provided by the current zoning classification could be more appropriate for this
area’s growth potential.
Yes No The request is for a SMALL SCALE REZONING and should be evaluated for
reasonableness.
REASONING: The property is adjacent to RA-30 zoned property and therefore would not
need to be evaluated as a small scale rezoning.
Additional Information
On October 3, the Harnett County Planning Board voted unanimously (5-0) to recommend approval of this
rezoning due to the immediate residential use and tax base, as well as the lack of public sewer to better
support a nonresidential project.
• Planning Board members discussed EM response in a rural area and internal street connections if this
project moves forward. However, the main topic consisted of no new nonresidential activity in this area
for a while as well and public sewer is not present which is vital to nonresidential development.
• The applicant was represented by legal council, whom discussed points pertaining to the majority of the
area being residentially zoned as well as the public sewer not being present nor being proposed to come to
this area.
• Two citizens spoke in opposition. One had overall concerns with development in this rural area,
including traffic and safety concerns. The other was the farmer whom leases this parcel and spoke of farm
preservation and protecting his livelihood as a farmer.
Suggested Statement-of-Consistency (Staff concludes that…)
As stated in the evaluation, the requested rezoning to RA-30 would not enhance the general, overall
welfare of the surrounding community due to the existing nonresidential zoned parcels in the area as well
as the future economic development endeavors. Therefore, it is recommended that this rezoning request
be DENIED.

Board Meeting
Agenda Item
MEETING DATE: November 7, 2022
TO: HARNETT COUNTY BOARD OF COMMISSIONERS
SUBJECT: ARPA/CSLFRF Property Management Policy
REQUESTED BY: County Manager's Office (Ally Fouts)
REQUEST:
The ARPA/CSLFRF Property Management Policy is one of a few policies that the County
should adopt in order to ensure that all projects utilizing American Rescue Plan
Act/Coronavirus State and Local Fiscal Recovery Fund (ARPA/CSLFRF) monies will be
implemented in compliance with federal Uniform Guidance requirements. This policy
specifically establishes standards in relation to property that is purchased with ARP/CSLFRF
funds. The main reason we are requesting approval of this policy is to ensure the VIPER
radios for emergency response staff are purchased and managed properly. These radios are
considered "equipment" within this policy, referred to in section IV. The federal Uniform
Guidance requires that Harnett County retains the title to the VIPER radios throughout the
term of ARPA/CSLFRF funding (until December 31, 2026). The provision about Leasing
Equipment will allow the County to lease all VIPER radios, and related equipment, to local
fire departments during the award term.
FINANCE OFFICER’S RECOMMENDATION:
COUNTY MANAGER’S RECOMMENDATION:
Item 14
HCBOC 110122 ws Pg. 116
County of Harnett
ARP/CSLFRF Property Management Policy
Effective November 7, 2022
I. POLICY OVERVIEW
Title 2 U.S. Code of Federal Regulations Part 200, Uniform Administrative Requirements, Cost
Principles, and Audit Requirements for Federal Awards, commonly called Uniform Guidance
(UG), specifically Subpart D, details post award requirements related to property management of
property acquired or updated, in whole or in part, with funds from the Coronavirus State and
Local Fiscal Recovery Funds of H.R. 1319 American Rescue Plan Act of 2021 (ARP/CSLFRF).
2 CFR 200.311 through 2 CFR 200.316 detail property standards related to the expenditure of
ARP/CSLFRF funds. The County of Harnett (hereinafter referred to as the “County”) shall
adhere to all applicable property standards, as detailed below.
II. DEFINITIONS
The definitions in 2 CFR 200.1 apply to this policy, including the following:
Computing devices: machines used to acquire, store, analyze, process, and publish data
and other information electronically, including accessories (or “peripherals”) for printing,
transmitting and receiving, or storing electronic information. See also the definitions
of supplies and information technology systems in this section.
Equipment: tangible personal property (including information technology systems)
having a useful life of more than one year and a per-unit acquisition cost which equals or
exceeds the lesser of the capitalization level established by the County for financial
statement purposes, or $5,000.
Information technology systems: computing devices, ancillary equipment, software,
firmware, and similar procedures, services (including support services), and related
resources. See also the definitions of computing devices and equipment in this Section.
HCBOC 110122 ws Pg. 117
Intangible property: property having no physical existence, such as trademarks,
copyrights, patents and patent applications and property, such as loans, notes and other
debt instruments, lease agreements, stock and other instruments of property ownership
(whether the property is tangible or intangible).
Personal property: property other than real property. It may be tangible, having physical
existence, or intangible.
Property: real property or personal property.
Real property: land, including land improvements, structures and appurtenances thereto,
but excludes moveable machinery and equipment.
Supplies: all tangible personal property other than those described in the definition
of equipment in this Section. A computing device is a supply if the acquisition cost is less
than the lesser of the capitalization level established by the County for financial statement
purposes or $5,000, regardless of the length of its useful life. See also the definitions
of computing devices and equipment in this Section.
III. REAL PROPERTY
Title to Real Property: Title to real property acquired or improved with ARP/CSLFRF funds
vests with the County. 2 CFR 200.311(a).
Use of Real Property: Real property acquired or improved with ARP/CSLFRF funds must be
used for the originally authorized purpose as long as needed for that purpose, during which time
the County must not dispose of or encumber its title or other interests. 2 CFR 200.311(b).
Insurance of Real Property: The County must provide the equivalent insurance coverage for
real property acquired or improved with ARP/CSLFRF funds as provided to property owned by
the County. 2 CFR 200.310.
Disposition of Real Property: When the County no longer needs real property purchased with
ARP/CSLFRF for ARP/CSLFRF purposes, the County must obtain disposition instructions from
US Treasury. The instructions must provide for one of the following alternatives:
1. The County retains title after compensating US Treasury. The amount paid to US
Treasury will be computed by applying US Treasury’s percentage of participation in the
cost of the original purchase (and costs of any improvements) to the fair market value of
the property. However, in those situations where the County is disposing of real property
acquired or improved with ARP/CSLFRF funds and acquiring replacement real property
under the ARP/CSLFRF, the net proceeds from the disposition may be used as an offset
to the cost of the replacement property.
2. The County sells the property and compensates US Treasury. The amount due to US
Treasury will be calculated by applying US Treasury’s percentage of participation in the
cost of the original purchase (and cost of any improvements) to the proceeds of the sale
after deduction of any actual and reasonable selling and fixing-up expenses. If the
HCBOC 110122 ws Pg. 118
ARP/CSLFRF award has not been closed out, the net proceeds from sale may be offset
against the original cost of the property. When the County is directed to sell property,
sales procedures must be followed that provide for competition to the extent practicable
and result in the highest possible return.
3. The County transfers title to US Treasury or to a third party designated/approved by US
Treasury. The County is entitled to be paid an amount calculated by applying the
County’s percentage of participation in the purchase of the real property (and cost of any
improvements) to the current fair market value of the property. 2 CFR 200.311(c).
IV. EQUIPMENT
Title to Equipment: Title to equipment acquired or improved with ARP/CSLFRF funds vests
with the County. 2 CFR 200.313(a).
Leasing Equipment: Equipment procured by the County with ARP/CSLFRF funds may be
leased by outside entities to be used for its intended purpose. Any leasing entities must be
compliant with federal guidelines, as evidenced by a written leasing agreement.
Use of Equipment: The County must use equipment acquired with ARP/CSLFRF funds for the
project for which it was acquired as long as needed, whether or not the project continues to be
supported by the ARP/CSLFRF award, and the County must not encumber the property without
prior approval of US Treasury. 2 CFR 200.313(a)(1)-(2).
When no longer needed for the original project, the equipment may be used in other activities
supported by a Federal awarding agency, in the following order of priority:
1. Activities under a Federal award from the Federal awarding agency which funded the
original project, then
2. Activities under Federal awards from other Federal awarding agencies. This includes
consolidated equipment for information technology systems. 2 CFR 200.313(c)(1).
During the time that equipment is used on the project for which it was acquired, the County must
also make equipment available for use on other projects or programs currently or previously
supported by the Federal Government, provided that such use will not interfere with the work on
the project for which it was originally acquired. First preference for other use must be given to
other programs or projects supported by US Treasury and second preference must be given to
programs or projects under Federal awards from other Federal awarding agencies. Use for non-
federally-funded programs or projects is also permissible. User fees should be considered if
appropriate. 2 CFR 200.313(c)(2).
Noncompetition: The County must not use equipment acquired with the ARP/CSLFRF funds to
provide services for a fee that is less than private companies charge for equivalent services
unless specifically authorized by Federal statute for as long as the Federal Government retains an
interest in the equipment. 2 CFR 200.313(c)(3).
Replacement Equipment: When acquiring replacement equipment, the County may use the
equipment to be replaced as a trade-in or sell the property and use the proceeds to offset the cost
of the replacement property. 2 CFR 200.313(c)(4).
HCBOC 110122 ws Pg. 119
Management of Equipment: The County will manage equipment (including replacement
equipment) acquired in whole or in part with ARP/CSLFRF funds according to the following
requirements.
1. The County will maintain sufficient records that include
a) a description of the property,
b) a serial number or other identification number,
c) the source of funding for the property (including the Federal Award Identification
Number (FAIN)),
d) who holds title,
e) the acquisition date,
f) cost of the property,
g) percentage of Federal participation in the project costs for the Federal award under
which the property was acquired,
h) the location, use, and condition of the property, and
i) any ultimate disposition data including the date of disposal and sale price of the
property.
2. The County will conduct a physical inventory of the property and reconcile results with
its property records at least once every two years.
3. The County will develop a control system to ensure adequate safeguards to prevent loss,
damage, or theft of the property. Any loss, damage, or theft will be investigated by the
County.
4. The County will develop and implement adequate maintenance procedures to keep the
property in good condition.
5. If the County is authorized or required to sell the property, it will establish proper sales
procedures to ensure the highest possible return, in accordance with state and federal law.
Insurance of Equipment: The County must provide the equivalent insurance coverage for
equipment acquired or improved with ARP/CSLFRF funds as provided to property owned by the
County. 2 CFR 200.310.
Disposition of Equipment: When the equipment is no longer needed for its original
ARP/CSLFRF purpose, the County may either make the equipment available for use in other
activities funded by a Federal agency, with priority given to activities funded by US Treasury,
dispose of the equipment according to instructions from US Treasury, or follow the procedures
below. 2 CFR 200.313(e).
1. Equipment with a per-item fair market value of less than $5,000 may be retained, sold or
transferred by the County, in accordance with state law, with no additional responsibility
to US Treasury;
2. If no disposal instructions are received from US Treasury, equipment with a per-item fair
market value of greater than $5,000 may be retained or sold by the County. The County
HCBOC 110122 ws Pg. 120
must establish proper sales procedures, in accordance with state law, to ensure the highest
possible return. The County must reimburse US Treasury for its federal share.
Specifically, US Treasury is entitled to an amount calculated by multiplying the current
market value or proceeds from sale by the ARP/CSLFRF funding percentage of
participation in the cost of the original purchase. If the equipment is sold, US Treasury
may permit the County to deduct and retain from the Federal share $500 or ten percent of
the proceeds, whichever is less, for its selling and handling expenses.
3. Equipment may be transferred to US Treasury or to a third-party designated by US
Treasury in return for compensation to the County for its attributable compensation for its
attributable percentage of the current fair market value of the property.
V. SUPPLIES
Title to Supplies. Title to supplies acquired with ARP/CSLFRF funds vests with the County
upon acquisition. 2 CFR 200.314(a).
Use and Disposition of Supplies: If there is a residual inventory of unused supplies exceeding
$5,000 in total aggregate value upon termination or completion of the ARP/CSLFRF project and
the supplies are not needed for any other Federal award, the County must retain the supplies for
use on other activities or sell them, but must, in either case, compensate the Federal Government
for its share. The amount of compensation must be computed in the same manner as for
equipment. 2 CFR 200.314(a).
Noncompetition. As long as the Federal Government retains an interest in the supplies, the
County must not use supplies acquired under the ARP/CSLFRF to provide services to other
organizations for a fee that is less than private companies charge for equivalent services, unless
specifically authorized by Federal statute. 2 CFR 200.314(b).
VI. PROPERTY TRUST RELATIONSHIP
Real property, equipment, and intangible property, that are acquired or improved with
ARP/CSLFRF funds must be held in trust by the County as trustee for the beneficiaries of the
project or program under which the property was acquired or improved. US Treasury may
require the County to record liens or other appropriate notices of record to indicate that personal
or real property has been acquired or improved with a Federal award and that use and disposition
conditions apply to the property. 2 CFR 200.316.
VII. IMPLEMENTATION OF POLICY
The ARP/CSLFRF Management Team shall adopt procedures to track all real property,
equipment, and supplies (collectively, property) acquired or improved in whole or in part with
ARP/CSLFRF funds. At a minimum, those procedures must address the following:
Ensure proper insurance of property
Document proper use of property
Working with the Finance Officer, record and maintain required data records for
equipment
HCBOC 110122 ws Pg. 121
Conduct periodic inventories of equipment, at least every two years

The current environment for recruiting staff to fill the vacancies listed above is very
challenging. The current starting pay is considered an issue for recruiting staff. A recent call
to neighboring counties revealed that our starting salaries are below Chatham, Cumberland,
Johnston and Lee counties. Our starting salaries are higher than Sampson County. The
percentage below other counties ranges from around 5% lower to 23% lower. The proposed
increase would move us higher than all but Johnston County.
The November 5% increase would cost approximately $401,128.20 against our FY 23 budget
and the 5% increase in March would cost $196,385.36 against our FY 23 budget. The total
cost in FY 23 for this increase is approximately $597,513.56. The impact of this salary
increase in the FY 24 budget will be an increase of $1,324,508. The current budget has
available fund balance that can cover this mid-year budget increase.
Staff is currently preparing an RFP for conducting a Compensation Study in 2023. The
approval of this salary increase is an advance increase based on best available knowledge of
other counties current salary numbers similar to what will occur from the completion of the
study. We will be utilizing the compensation study information to consider increases for
other positions once the study is complete.
The Sheriff's Office requests approval of a salary increase on select positions in the amount
of 5% on November 16, 2022 and an additional 5% on March 16, 2022.

Board Meeting
Agenda Item
MEETING DATE: November 7, 2022
TO: HARNETT COUNTY BOARD OF COMMISSIONERS
SUBJECT: Harnett County Schools - Classified Pay Scale Discussion
REQUESTED BY: Kimberly Honeycutt, Finance Officer
REQUEST:
Request that the Harnett County Board of Commissioners approve the implementation of a
decompressed pay scale for Harnett County Schools and the additional funding needed for
implementation.
Background:
•As required by law (Session Law 2022-74), all classified school employees are required
to receive an increase to $15 per hour or 4%, whichever is the greater for the 2022-23
school year.
•As such, the Harnett County Schools approved a compressed classified pay scale on
September 12, 2022 to be effective July 1, 2022 to meet this requirement.
•Because the County is responsible for a portion of the funding of classified positions,
the schools approved a compressed scale until further discussions could be held with
the Harnett County Board of Commissioners.
o A compressed scale means that many grades/classifications are paid the same,
with no differentiation between job responsibilities. For example, a custodian
supervisor or cafeteria manager could earn the same pay as the custodian or
cafeteria worker they supervise.
•The attached Options for HCS Classified Scale FY23 proposes four options based upon
a compressed or decompressed approach for implementing this law.
o A compressed classified scale will allow the schools to meet the minimum
requirements of the law (employees receive an increase to $15 per hour or 4%,
whichever is greater).
o A decompressed classified scale will allow the schools to meet the
requirements of the law but take it a step further. The plan would allow for the
implementation of the $15 per hour but would also allow increases as the
grades/job responsibilities increase and steps for “experience” and would
prevent “compression” issues in the future.
o To address this issue, the Harnett County Schools have requested the use of
current year county expansion funding ($740,985), additional funding from the
county and use of the school’s fund balance. The attached Options for HCS
Classified Scale FY23 identifies the funding impact of each approach for the
2023 and 2024 fiscal years.

Recommendation:
•It is requested that the Harnett County Board of Commissioners consider approving the
Decompressed Scale, Option 3.
•If approved, the following funding is requested:
o Fiscal Year 2023:
Allow the Harnett County Schools to use all expansion funding already
provided by the County through current expense funding;
Provide an additional $700,000 in current expense funding to the
schools (requires approval of attached budget amendment to appropriate
fund balance); and
Harnett County schools would use $700,000 of their fund balance.
o Fiscal Year 2024:
Harnett County would increase the current expense appropriation to the
schools by $850,000 (continues support of $700,000 and provides
$150,000 for progressing through the grades and steps for experience).
