S. N.C. General Statute Section 159-30 authorizes the Finance Officer to invest idle funds of the

Larry Smith, Emergency Services Director, presented a request regarding the approval of the
fireworks application from Pyro East Coast, Inc. for Anderson Creek POA. East Coast
Pyrotechnics meets all requirements and has met fire code compliance for the event. The event
will take place on 6/29 at 9 pm at Anderson Creek Club. Consensus of the Board was to place
this item on the next consent agenda.
Mr. Smith also presented a request for the approval of the fireworks application from Pyro East
Coast, Inc. for the Lillington 4th of July Fireworks Shoot. East Coast Pyrotechnics meets all
requirements and has met fire code compliance for the event. The event will take place on 7/4 at
9:15 p.m. at Lillington Park. Consensus of the Board was to place this item on the next consent
agenda.
Mr. Smith also presented a request on behalf of Benson Fire Department, requesting approval of
Benson responding to EMS calls as First Responders. These responses will be within the area
within Harnett County that we contract Fire Response with Benson. This requires no additional
funding from the County. In July they will begin EMT level response within the county.
Consensus of the Board was to place this item as an individual action item at the next meeting.
Kimberly Honeycutt, Finance Officer, reviewed a request to approve a Resolution authorizing
investment of idle funds with NC Investment Pool. N.C. General Statute Section 159-30
authorizes the Finance Officer to invest idle funds of the County in a commingled investment
pool. North Carolina Investment Pool “NCIP”, is such an investment pool and would be a good
tool for the finance office to use to ensure that we are maximizing our return on the investment
of the County’s idle funds in as safe a way as possible. Adoption of the resolution authorizing the
use of NCIP as an investment tool will not violate any statutes that restrict the investments that
we are allowed to utilize, as NCIP only invests in those types of instruments with the proper
credit ratings as authorized by the NC General Statutes. Discussion included access to the funds
if needed and the interest rate. Consensus of the Board was to place this item on the next consent
agenda.

Commissioner Weatherspoon requested the item be placed as an individual action item.
Consensus of the Board was to place this item as an individual action item on the next agenda.
Chad Beane, Solid Waste Director, provided historical information on the Ponderosa Road
convenience site and park location. Commissioner Nicol stated the reason we are discussing this
is the County received an offer to purchase the property across the street, it is a long, skinny strip
across the street. Concerns regarding the park’s location next to the convenience center had been
shared. I’ve talked with staff about possibly putting in some screening and addressing the
ingress and egress to the convenience center. Commissioner Nicol recommended going ahead
and having this property advertised for the upset bid process and use the funds of the property
sale to go towards addressing the entrance for the park and possibly another ingress/egress for
the convenient center. Following some discussion regarding the use of the park, consensus of the
Board was to place this item as an individual action item at the next meeting.

• Voluntary Ag District (VAD) Enrollment Summary
o Total Acres Enrolled: 26,239
o Parcels Enrolled: 692
Ms. Lambert highlighted the following as to why we should have Ag friendly planning:
• Ag is major economic contributor to the Harnett economy
• NC ranks 2nd in the Nation for potential agricultural land lost by 2040.
• 4 NC Counties rank in the top 40 nationwide for ag land conversion by 2040: Johnston,
Union, Wake, Iredell
• Agriculture and the scenic atmosphere it provides is a major draw for County residents
(lifelong and new)
• Agricultural lands serve to buffer and maintain the water quality within the Cape Fear
River and its associated tributaries, therefore supporting the wellbeing of the Harnett
Regional Water public utility
• Productive agricultural lands are a matter of national security ensuring the ability to feed
a growing population in times of distress/conflict both at home or abroad
Ms. Lambert also shared the following as to what we can do to support Ag friendly planning:
• Support the Present Use Value Tax Program as currently applied
• Plan for agricultural buffers in Development Services site plans- set distance from farm
property line with vegetated berms, not at the expense of farmland owner
o Allows for farmers/forestland owners to continue required management practices
for successful production – herbicide, insecticide and fertilizer application, serves
as dust and odor barrier, prescribed burns for forest management
o Current development site plans have ignored the initial setback that poultry and
swine operations were required to follow when they were constructed (established
in 1993 and updated in 2001 by Harnett County) and therefore void the initial
designed buffer area that farmers were required to follow
• Promote and Support Farmland Preservation Programming
o Voluntary Agriculture District (VAD) & Enhanced VAD Programs– Promote
Ag, Recognizes Farmers, Creates Agricultural Awareness, Reduces Land
Conversion Threat
o Place Voluntary Ag District written notice in visible location on documents from
Development Services for projects adjacent to VAD enrolled property or within 1
mile buffer
o Development project adjacent to VAD enrolled property – Organize meeting with
VAD landowners to review project including stormwater plan. Include VAD
County staff representative.
o Identify agricultural development zones in land use plan

o Fund voluntary farmland conservation easements – Provide match funds for NC
ADFP Agricultural Conservation Easements
This funding comes from rollback taxes in several other NC Counties and
allows applications for agricultural conservation easements to be more
competitive during grant funding consideration and creates a more
efficient process for citizens and managing staff
• This program enables landowners to have options if they so choose
to maintain land for agricultural purposes while providing a
financial incentive to offset some of what may be received from
the sale of property for development (landowner retains ownership
and remains responsible for all taxes and all other responsibilities
associated with land ownership)
• Provide County staffing to support programs needed to support agriculture and natural
resources programming
o Future Soil and Water Conservation staffing needs: Conservation Education
Specialist, Watershed Conservationist (residential natural resources concerns and
cost share programs), Farmland Preservation Specialist
• Encourage strengthening of local foods system – Promote and financially support a
farmers market program managed by our Harnett agriculture agencies
o This provides:
A recognizable and consistent location for citizens to purchase local
agricultural products
A known venue for citizens to connect with local farmers to educate
themselves about their food choices (increases consumer knowledge and
understanding of the farming communities within our County)
A platform for large and small scale farmers to market their products –
Keeps money more local
An opportunity for local farmers to participate in organized programs to
give back to their community and those in need
A known location for agricultural education and other special events
Additional discussion included the value of land, staffing, land use plan and conservation
districts.
Steve Ward, Harnett Regional Water provided the following information:

Chairman Morris stated you have heard a lot of information, a lot of data, you can see where our
concerns are. Coley and Mark are right, if we are going to make adjustments, putting it in this
land use plan, is the time to do it. Chairman Morris stated what we would like for you to do is go
back and find us some ideas, some solutions, and bring it to the board. We do need some smart
growth, we need some good guidance for agriculture and we need to create an environment to
make it easier for Stephen to recruit industry.

ATTACHMENT ‘A’
Due to current economic factors, supply chains are being disrupted at all levels, including raw materials,
parts manufacturing, subassemblies, complete product assemblies, and shipping. These disruptions are
indefinitely delaying some deliveries with many more items being added to the list daily for the
foreseeable future. During this timeframe, Cornerstone cannot guarantee delivery times and project
schedules. Cornerstone considers this situation to be a Force Majeure event.
This proposal expressly rejects liquidated damages, back charges, and delay penalties for material
deliveries, installation, and project schedules, regardless of bid documentation requirements for the same,
as the potential delays relate to unavailability of, limited ability or inability to obtain, labor or materials by
reason of acts of any governmental body which disrupts, slows or affects the supply or availability of
labor or materials, including but not limited to those arising or resulting from the spread of, or efforts to
contain the spread of, illness on a global, national, state or local level.
By acceptance of this proposal, any requirement for liquidated damages, back charges, and delay penalties
are waived and considered null and void.

Good Morning Mr. Polinski,
Thank you for the opportunity to bid on your job. Unfortunately after reviewing the scope of
the project, I do not have a large enough crew to accomplish an installation that size. I
sincerely apologize for delaying the process while I tried to figure out a solution in the event we
got the job. I cannot in good conscience bid on a job I do not have the means to complete.
Thank you again for the opportunity,
Best Regards,

WHEREAS, the Robert T. Stafford Disaster Relief and Emergency Assistance Act, (“The Stafford
Act”), 42 U.S.C. § 5121 et seq., identifies the use of disaster relief funds under 5170c, Hazard
Mitigation Grant Program, including the acquisition and relocation of structures in the floodplain;
WHEREAS, the mitigation grant program provides a process for a local government, through
the State, to apply for federal funds for mitigation assistance to acquire interests in property,
including the purchase of structures in the floodplain, to demolish and/or remove the structures, and
to maintain the use of the Property as open space in perpetuity;
WHEREAS, the State of North Carolina, North Carolina Department of Public Safety’s Division
of Emergency Management (“NCEM”) has applied for and been awarded such funding from the
Department of Homeland Security, Federal Emergency Management Agency (“FEMA”) and has
entered into a mitigation grant program Grant Agreement dated 4412-0002 with FEMA and herein
incorporated by reference; making it a mitigation grant program grantee.
WHEREAS, the Property is located in Harnett County, and Harnett County participates in the
National Flood Insurance Program (“NFIP”) and is in good standing with NFIP as of the date of the
Deed;
WHEREAS, the Harnett County Department of Emergency Management, acting by and through
the NC Department of Public Safety Board, has applied for and been awarded federal funds pursuant
to an agreement with NCEM dated September 1, 2022, and herein incorporated by reference, making
it a mitigation grant program sub-grantee;
WHEREAS, the terms of the mitigation grant program statutory authorities, Federal program
requirements consistent with 44 C.F.R. Part 80, the Grant Agreement, and the State-local Agreement
require that the Grantee agree to conditions that restrict the use of the land to open space in
perpetuity in order to protect and preserve natural floodplain values;
NOW THEREFORE, the grant is made subject to the following terms and conditions:
1. Terms. Pursuant to the terms of the Hazard Mitigation Grant Program statutory authorities,
Federal program requirements consistent with 44 C.F.R. Part 80, the Grant Agreement, and
the State-local Agreement, the following conditions and restrictions shall apply in perpetuity
to the Property described in the attached deed and acquired by the Grantee pursuant to FEMA
program requirements concerning the acquisition of property for open space:
a. Compatible Uses. The Property shall be dedicated and maintained in perpetuity as
open space for the conservation of natural floodplain functions. Such uses may
include: parks for outdoor recreational activities; wetlands management; nature
reserves; cultivation; grazing; camping (except where adequate warning time is not
HCBOC 050624 Pg. 130
available to allow evacuation); unimproved, unpaved parking lots; buffer zones;
and other uses consistent with FEMA guidance for open space acquisition, Hazard
Mitigation Assistance, Requirements for Property Acquisition and Relocation for

b. Structures. No new structures or improvements shall be erected on the Property
other than:
i. A public facility that is open on all sides and functionally related to a
designated open space or recreational use;
ii. A public rest room; or
iii. A structure that is compatible with open space and conserves the
natural function of the floodplain, including the uses described in
Paragraph 1.a., above, and approved by the FEMA Administrator in
writing before construction of the structure begins.
iv. Any improvements on the Property shall be in accordance with proper
floodplain management policies and practices. Structures built on the
Property according to paragraph b of this section shall be floodproofed

or greater, if required by FEMA, or if required by any State, Tribal, or local
ordinance, and in accordance with criteria established by the FEMA
Administrator.
c. Disaster Assistance and Flood Insurance. No Federal entity or source may provide
disaster assistance for any purpose with respect to the Property, nor may any
application for such assistance be made to any Federal entity or source. The
Property is not eligible for coverage under the NFIP for damage to structures on the
property occurring after the date of the property settlement, except for pre-existing
structures being relocated off the property as a result of the project.
d. Transfer. The Grantee, including successors in interest, shall convey any interest
in the Property only if the FEMA Regional Administrator, through the State (NCEM),
gives prior written approval of the transferee in accordance with this paragraph.
i. The request by the Grantee, through NCEM, to the FEMA Regional

a qualified conservation organization. However, the Grantee may
convey an easement or lease to a private individual or entity for
purposes compatible with the uses described in paragraph (a), of this
section, with the prior approval of the FEMA Regional Administrator, and
HCBOC 050624 Pg. 131
so long as the conveyance does not include authority to control and
enforce the terms and conditions of this section.

a conservation mission, it must be conveyed subject to a conservation
agreement that shall be recorded with the deed and shall incorporate
all terms and conditions set forth in this section, including the easement
holder’s responsibility to enforce the easement. This shall be
accomplished by one of the following means:
A. The Grantee shall convey, in accordance with this paragraph, a
conservation easement to an entity other than the title holder, which
shall be recorded with the deed, or
B. At the time of title transfer, the Grantee shall retain such
conservation easement and record it with the deed.
iv. Conveyance of any property interest must reference and incorporate the
original deed restrictions providing notice of the conditions in this
section and must incorporate a provision for the property interest to
revert to the State, Tribe, or local government in the event that the
transferee ceases to exist or loses its eligible status under this section.
2. Inspection. FEMA, its representatives and assigns including the state or tribe shall have the
right to enter upon the Property, at reasonable times and with reasonable notice, for the
purpose of inspecting the Property to ensure compliance with the terms of this part, the

and conditions govern this Agreement:
a. The term of this Agreement is for the time period from March 1, 2024 to

withdraw by delivering ten (10) days’ written notice to the other party of its

reimbursement basis for actual costs incurred as described in the attached
Project Summary, up to a total amount not to exceed $98,000.
c. Harnett acknowledges that through this partnership, IIR is the primary recipient
of grant funds related to the efforts performed under this Agreement and is the
sole entity through which any communications to the grant-funding agency and
all agency personnel related to funding for this effort are to be made unless
otherwise specifically approved in advance by IIR. Harnett (or recipients of
subawards/subcontract issued by Harnett) shall not initiate any direct contact
with DOJ, OJP, any other federal entity associated with this effort, or employees
of such entity, regarding funding for this project before first receiving specific
prior written IIR approval to make such contact. Harnett shall, within

for all travel and submit evidence of that approval with the submitted expense
report.
f. Harnett will invoice IIR for agreed-upon allowable costs incurred during the
invoice period. Any indirect costs charged must be consistent with either an

payment may exceed the thirty (30) days.
g. Harnett must invoice IIR for allowable expenses incurred pursuant to this
Agreement (but not previously invoiced) within thirty (30) days of the
expiration of this Agreement. Invoices submitted after thirty (30) days of the
expiration of this Agreement may not be paid because of requirements
associated with federal funding availability.
h. Harnett will provide a report with each invoice summarizing the activity to date
and changes or delays in the project scope, if any. IIR may request additional
activity/progress reports during the term of this Agreement.
i. At project completion, Harnett will provide a final report on the project. IIR
may require supplementation or modification of the final report as may be
necessary to allow IIR to fulfill its federal reporting requirements.

meet federal requirements and have a level of skill commensurate with the
requirements set forth in this Agreement. Harnett certifies that it will use
reasonable care and skill to efficiently and effectively perform the services
required to complete the deliverables outlined in the Project Summary.
k. Harnett certifies that all personnel providing service hereunder are
United States citizens or are fully and legally authorized to work in the

immediate termination of this Agreement by IIR.
l. In executing this Agreement, Harnett represents that it is fully capable of
providing the efforts anticipated and required by the Agreement and is not aware
of any pending or potential restrictions that would make it unable to
successfully perform those efforts.

consultants to treat such material as confidential and will not disclose such information or work
products to any person, organization, or corporation. At any time during this Agreement, IIR may
require a separate supplemental nondisclosure agreement to be executed detailing any applicable
additional obligations.
Independent Contractor
Harnett agrees that as an independent contractor, Harnett controls the manner and means of work
and that there will be no IIR employee benefits accruing to the benefit of Harnett personnel,
including, but not limited to, unemployment compensation, workers’ compensation, health and
life insurance benefits, or retirement earnings. Harnett will not make any claims on IIR related to
benefits reserved for employees. Harnett will indemnify, defend, and hold IIR and its officers,
directors, and agents harmless from any damages, claims, injuries, disabilities, or other expenses
resulting from Harnett’s failure to provide benefits for Harnett and Harnett’s employees. Harnett
agrees that IIR will pay Harnett the gross amount due without withholding for federal income tax
or social security tax, which will be the sole responsibility of Harnett.
Training and Other Materials
Harnett agrees to submit to IIR, for submission to BJA for review and approval, materials and
efforts funded in whole or in part by this subaward, including curricula, training materials,
proposed publications, reports, or other written materials that will be published, including web-

requirements, or dissemination restrictions; and notice that the product does not necessarily reflect

enter into as part of the project funded through this Agreement. Any subawards issued under this
HCBOC 050624 Pg. 177
Attachment B – 4134-2024-003 County of Harnett
7
Agreement will contain the same clauses and requirements as outlined in this Agreement, including
the requirement for expense reimbursement. Subawardees must invoice Harnett for actual
expenses and provide appropriate supporting documentation. Harnett must, in turn, provide IIR
with the invoices and supporting documentation received from the subawarded entities with the
related invoice from Harnett. Harnett agrees to comply with its oversight and monitoring
responsibilities for subawards issued by Harnett in compliance with 2 Code of Federal Regulations
(CFR) Part 200 Uniform Requirements.
Sole Source Approval
All purchases/contracts under this Agreement should be competitively awarded unless
circumstances preclude competition. When a purchase/contract exceeds $250,000 and there has
been no competition, Harnett must forward justification for the purchase/contract and obtain
approval from IIR prior to finalizing the purchase/contract.
Consultant Rates
Consultant rates (excluding travel or other expense reimbursements) cannot exceed $650 per day
(which is $81.25/hour). A detailed justification must be submitted to and approved by IIR prior to
obligation or expenditure of consultant rates that exceed the $650 daily rate.
Indirect Cost Requirements
Prior to charging indirect costs to this subaward, Harnett must provide either an approved Federal
Negotiated Indirect Cost Rate Agreement (NICRA) or other indirect cost allocation plan/rate in
accordance with 2 CFR Part 200 to IIR. If an updated NICRA is received by Harnett, it must be
forwarded to IIR within thirty (30) days after receipt from the issuing agency/entity. If the cost
allocation plan/rate is to be approved by IIR as the oversight/awarding agency in accordance with
2 CFR Part 200, then Harnett shall permit IIR and/or its auditors to have access to the records and
financial statements of Harnett as necessary for IIR to comply with its responsibilities. The most
recent version of the NICRA or other indirect cost allocation plan/rate shall be provided to IIR
during the Agreement closeout process.

Disallowance
In the event that Harnett claims and receives payments from IIR hereunder, reimbursement for
which is later disallowed by IIR or the United States government, Harnett shall, upon request,
promptly refund to IIR the disallowed amount. At its option, IIR may offset the amount disallowed
from any payment due or to become due to Harnett.
Nondiscrimination Requirements, Findings of Discrimination, and Equal Employment
Opportunity
Harnett will not discriminate against any employee or applicant for employment or subcontractor
or bidder because of actual or perceived age, race, color, national origin, religion, sex, disability,
sexual orientation, gender identity, ancestry, or mental or physical disability, and it shall comply
with the applicable federal laws and regulations. If, in the three (3) years prior to the date of the
grant award supporting this effort, Harnett has received any adverse finding of discrimination, or
should Harnett during the active life of this contract receive an adverse finding of discrimination
against Harnett, after a due process hearing or by reason of a U.S. Department of Justice (DOJ),
Office of Justice Programs (OJP), Office for Civil Rights compliance review, on the ground of

Harnett agrees to take reasonable steps to provide meaningful access to the program/project and
activities funded under this Agreement for persons with limited English proficiency, pursuant to
information located at http://www.lep.gov.
Equal Treatment of Faith-Based Organizations
By regulation, DOJ prohibits all recipient organizations from using financial assistance from DOJ
to fund explicitly religious activities. Harnett agrees to avoid such prohibited conduct. For more
information, see https://ojp.gov/about/ocr/partnerships.htm. Discrimination on the basis of religion
in employment is generally prohibited by federal law, but the Religious Freedom Restoration Act
is interpreted on a case-by-case basis to allow some faith-based organizations to receive DOJ funds
while taking into account religion when hiring staff members. Questions in this regard should be
directed to the Office for Civil Rights.
Arrest and Conviction Records
Federal and state laws restrict use of arrest and conviction records in the employment context,
except when specifically authorized. Harnett agrees to avoid the misuse of arrest or conviction
records to screen applicants for employment or employees for retention or promotion that may
HCBOC 050624 Pg. 180
Attachment B – 4134-2024-003 County of Harnett

have a disparate impact based on race or national origin, resulting in unlawful employment
discrimination unless use is otherwise specifically authorized by law. See https://ojp.gov/about/

any other award or subaward covered by 31 United States Code (U.S.C.) § 1352. Each tier shall
also disclose any lobbying with nonfederal funds that takes place in connection with obtaining any
federal award or subaward. Such disclosures are forwarded from tier to tier up to the recipient.

Lobbying Amendment (31 U.S.C. § 1352) and (ii) ensure that its officers, employees, and, for
subawards or subcontracts hereunder that exceed $100,000, its subcontractors hereunder comply
with all applicable local, state, and federal laws and regulations governing advocacy of and

System for Award Management (SAM) Registration
Harnett represents that Harnett’s registration in the System for Award Management (SAM) is
active and that the SAM registration will be maintained throughout the period of the Agreement.
Should the registration become other than active, Harnett will promptly notify IIR. If the SAM
registration is not active, payments to Harnett for invoices submitted may be delayed until the
SAM registration becomes active. If the SAM registration does not return to an active status within
thirty (30) days, the Agreement may be terminated.
Debarment and Suspension
No contract that equals or exceeds $25,000 shall be made to parties listed as suspended or debarred
in the SAM. See https://www.sam.gov/SAM/ for more information. Harnett represents that it and

enter into any lower-tier covered transaction with a person or entity who is debarred, suspended,
declared ineligible, or voluntarily excluded from participation in this covered transaction. Should
Harnett become debarred, suspended, declared ineligible, or voluntarily excluded from
participation in this covered transaction, Harnett will promptly notify IIR. If Harnett is debarred,
suspended, declared ineligible, or voluntarily excluded from participation in this covered
transaction, payments to Harnett for invoices submitted to IIR may be delayed and/or the
Agreement may be terminated.

conform with other procedures as required by the “IIR Breach of Personally Identifiable
Information Procedures” provided to Harnett as Attachment C and incorporated by reference here
or as may also be required by Harnett’s state law.

Pursuant to Executive Order 13513, “Federal Leadership on Reducing Text Messaging While
Driving,” 74 Federal Register 51225 (October 1, 2009), DOJ encourages recipients and
subrecipients to adopt and enforce policies banning employees from text messaging while driving
any vehicle during the course of performing work funded by DOJ and to establish workplace safety
policies and conduct education, awareness, and other outreach to decrease crashes caused by

Harnett shall retain Harnett’s copyright in all original works of authorship fixed in any tangible
medium of expression that are prepared, developed, or written by Harnett as part of the work
hereunder. Harnett hereby grants to the federal awarding agency through IIR (hereafter IIR) and

presentations made by Harnett or others on behalf of Harnett as part of the work hereunder and
(ii) a nonexclusive, irrevocable, worldwide license to distribute, reproduce, use, display, exhibit,

recordings (including, without limitation, recordings made by IIR pursuant to this section),
materials (including, but not limited to, written or electronically stored materials or ideas), and
other original works of authorship fixed in a tangible medium of expression that are prepared,
developed, made, generated, created, written, conceived, originated, furnished, performed,
presented, or modified by Harnett or others on behalf of Harnett as part of or in connection with
the work to be performed or furnished under this Agreement (collectively referred to as
“developments”), anywhere throughout the world, in any medium that exists or that may hereafter
be developed, free of any royalty or license fee whatsoever.
Harnett acknowledges that this Agreement is funded by federal funds and that the federal awarding
agency reserves a royalty-free, nonexclusive, and irrevocable license to reproduce, publish, or
otherwise use and authorize others to use (in whole or in part, including in co nnection with
derivative works) for federal purposes (i) any work subject to copyright developed under an award
or subaward and (ii) any rights of copyright to which a recipient or subrecipient purchases

from subrecipients, contractors, and subcontractors (if any) all rights and data necessary to fulfill
Harnett’s obligations to the government under this subaward. If a proposed subrecipient,
contractor, or subcontractor refuses to accept terms affording the government such rights, Harnett
shall promptly bring such refusal to the attention of IIR and not proceed with the agreement in
question without further authorization from IIR.
The parties agree that any breach of either party’s obligations related to right, title, and interest
may result in irreparable and continuing injury and damage to the affected party for which there
will be no adequate remedy at law, entitling the affected party to injunctive relief and a decree for
specific performance, together with such other relief as may be proper (including monetary
damages).
Patent Rights Clause

The subaward recipient or subcontractor will retain all rights provided for the award recipient in
this clause, and the award recipient will not, as a part of the consideration for awarding the

ATTACHMENT C
Institute for Intergovernmental Research (IIR)
Breach of Personally Identifiable Information Procedures
(September 2018)
These procedures apply to any actual, imminent, or attempted but unsuccessful breach of
personally identifiable information (PII) created, collected, used, processed, stored, maintained,
disseminated, or disclosed by the Institute for Intergovernmental Research (IIR) by IIR
employees and those performing efforts on behalf of IIR.
Definitions
• Personally identifiable information encompasses “personal information,” as may be
defined by state law, as well as any other information that can be used to distinguish or trace
an individual’s identity, either alone or when combined with other information that is linked
or linkable to a specific individual.1
• Breach means the loss of control over, the unauthorized disclosure or acquisition of, or any
similar occurrence affecting IIR PII where:
(1) An unauthorized user accesses or potentially accesses PII; or
(2) An authorized user accesses or potentially accesses PII for an other-
than-authorized purpose.2
“Breach” includes attempted but unsuccessful attempts, events such as the loss or
theft of physical documents containing PII, the loss or theft of portable electronic
devices storing PII, the inadvertent disclosure of PII on a public website, or oral
disclosure of PII to a person not authorized to receive that information.3 A reported
or known incident may, upon investigation, later be determined to have involved a
breach of PII.
• Incident is an occurrence that (1) actually or imminently jeopardizes, without lawful
authority, the integrity, confidentiality, or availability of information or an information
system; or (2) constitutes a violation or imminent threat of violation of law, security policies,
security procedures, or acceptable use policies.4
1 See 2 Code of Federal Regulations (CFR) § 200.79. PII, for breach purposes, may include information about an individual that is available in
public sources. The term “PII” is necessarily broad. To determine whether breached information is PII, IIR must per form on a case-by-case
basis an assessment of the specific risk that an individual can be identified using the information with other information th at is linked or linkable
to the individual and applicable federal and state law. PII, for breach purposes, might not include information that is encrypted, secured,
anonymized, or modified by any other method or technology that removes elements that personally identify an individual or that otherwise
renders the information unusable. See, for example, Office of Management and Budget (OMB) M-17-12 at
https://obamawhitehouse.archives.gov/sites/default/files/omb/memoranda/2017/m-17-12_0.pdf.
2 OMB M-17-12.
3 Good-faith access of personal information by an employee or agent of IIR may not constitute a breach, provided that the information is not
used for a purpose unrelated to the business or subject to further unauthorized use. State statutory definitions of “breach” must also be reviewed
in states where IIR employees or those performing efforts on behalf of IIR deal with PII (e.g., Section 501.171, Florida Statutes, and Tennessee
Code § 47-18-2107).

IIR Breach Standards
IIR shall take reasonable measures to protect and secure data in electronic or any other
form containing PII and shall promptly respond to any suspected or actual breach of PII.
In handling PII, IIR is responsible for providing information security protections against the
harm resulting from the unauthorized access, use, disclosure, disruption, modification, or
direction of:
(1) Information collected or maintained by IIR or on behalf of entities for which IIR
is performing services or efforts.
(2) Information systems used or operated by IIR on behalf of entities for which IIR is
performing services or efforts.
Any third party acting on behalf of IIR who handles, maintains, or accesses systems for
IIR that contain PII shall follow these IIR standards and procedures.
Any reported suspected or actual breach of PII involving IIR operations or the operations
of those acting on behalf of IIR must be promptly addressed. IIR will conform with all
required breach notifications or other obligations related to IIR breaches of PII, as defined by
applicable federal and state laws.5
All IIR employees and any other individuals handling, maintaining, or accessing PII on
behalf of IIR at any location shall immediately report a suspected or confirmed breach in
any form to the IIR Chief Information Officer (CIO). Do not wait for confirmation that a
breach has in fact occurred before reporting a suspected breach to the CIO. Undue delay may
undermine IIR’s ability to apply preventative and remedial measures to protect the PII or reduce
the risk of harm to potentially affected individuals.
Any misplaced, lost, or potentially stolen device containing PII should be reported to the
CIO immediately, even if there is a belief that the device may later be located.6 If the CIO
is unavailable, notify an IIR manager. That manager must then promptly ensure that appropriate
IIR IT security personnel are immediately notified.
The CIO will notify the IIR Chief Executive Officer (CEO) of the actual or suspected breach
and take appropriate steps to respond to any actual or suspected breach, including ensuring that
required notifications are timely made.7 The CIO may enlist the assistance of others within IIR
to help implement a prompt and effective response to a breach and to ensure that applicable
federal and state law requirements are met. The response of IIR shall
5 Section 501.171, Florida Statutes, applies to IIR’s Florida activities, since IIR is a Florida corporation. Tennessee Code § 47-18-2107 applies
to IIR’s Tennessee-sited activities. Statutes of other states in which IIR employees or agents handle PII may also apply on a case-by-case basis.
6 Such devices include, but are not limited to, laptops, tablets, and cell phones.
7 Notices may be required by federal or state law, grant special conditions, or government rules or regulations.
HCBOC 050624 Pg. 189
Attachment C – 4134-2024-003 County of Harnett
19
take into account the nature of the breach, the context in which the PII has been breached, and
the actual or probable risk of harm to individuals potentially affected by a breach.8
Failure by IIR employees to conform with these requirements may result in discipline. Failure
by entities under contract with IIR to conform with applicable requirements may result in
termination of their contractual status.
Compliance With Federal Grant Breach Notification Requirements
When IIR, as a grant recipient, uses or operates a federal information system9 or creates, collects,
uses, processes, stores, maintains, disseminates, discloses, or disposes of PII within the scope
of a federal award, IIR shall ensure that its procedures to respond to a breach are followed and
that IIR conforms with any terms and conditions imposed by its client(s) in the event of a breach.
As required by federal grant conditions, IIR must report an actual or imminent breach of PII to
an OJP (award) Program Manager no later than 24 hours after an occurrence of an actual breach
or the detection of an imminent breach.
Compliance With State Notice Requirements
IIR and entities acting on behalf of IIR shall ensure that they comply with all notification
obligations required by state law applicable to the site in which IIR activities involving PII are
occurring.
After-Action Report
The IIR CIO shall conduct an internal analysis of any attempted or actual breach of PII collected
or maintained by IIR to determine whether additional security standards or other procedures are
needed and whether all required actions, notifications, and responses have occurred in a timely
fashion. The CIO should forward a formal written after-action report to the IIR CEO, including
any suggested revisions to current procedures or needed additional security standards.
8 For example, a generic list of law enforcement personnel and their associated office phone numbers may not be of concern. However, a list of
law enforcement personnel engaged in undercover investigations, a list revealing family members or residential addresses, and PII revealing
personal medical information are of concern.

Uniform Requirements") apply to this FY 2022 award from OJP.
The Part 200 Uniform Requirements were first adopted by DOJ on December 26, 2014. If this FY
2022 award supplements funds previously awarded by OJP under the same award number
(e.g., funds awarded during or before December 2014), the Part 200 Uniform Requirements
apply with respect to all funds under that award number (regardless of the award date, and
regardless of whether derived from the initial award or a supplemental award) that are
obligated on or after the acceptance date of this FY 2022 award.
For more information and resources on the Part 200 Uniform Requirements as they relate to
OJP awards and subawards ("subgrants"), see the OJP website at
https://ojp.gov/funding/Part200UniformRequirements.htm.

applies -- and to which the recipient (and any subrecipient ("subgrantee") at any tier) must
provide access, include performance measurement information, in addition to the financial
records, supporting documents, statistical records, and other pertinent records indicated at 2
C.F.R. 200.334.
In the event that an award-related question arises from documents or other materials prepared
or distributed by OJP that may appear to conflict with, or differ in some way from, the
provisions of the Part 200 Uniform Requirements, the recipient is to contact OJP promptly for
clarification.
5
Compliance with applicable rules regarding approval, planning, and reporting of conferences,

Compliance with DOJ Grants Financial Guide
References to the DOJ Grants Financial Guide are to the DOJ Grants Financial Guide as posted
on the OJP website (currently, the "DOJ Grants Financial Guide" available at

Financial Guide.
8
Compliance with general appropriations-law restrictions on the use of federal funds (FY 2022)
The recipient, and any subrecipient ("subgrantee") at any tier, must comply with all applicable
restrictions on the use of federal funds set out in federal appropriations statutes. Pertinent
restrictions, including from various "general provisions" in the Consolidated Appropriations Act,
2022, are set out at https://www.ojp.gov/funding/Explore/FY22AppropriationsRestrictions.htm,
and are incorporated by reference here.
Should a question arise as to whether a particular use of federal funds by a recipient (or a
subrecipient) would or might fall within the scope of an appropriations-law restriction, the
recipient is to contact OJP for guidance, and may not proceed without the express prior written
approval of OJP.
9

38
The recipient, and any subrecipient ("subgrantee") at any tier, must comply with all applicable
requirements of 28 C.F.R. Part 38 (as may be applicable from time to time), specifically including
any applicable requirements regarding written notice to program beneficiaries and prospective
program beneficiaries.

Administration, Chapter 1, Part 38, under e-CFR "current" data.
10
Effect of failure to address audit issues
The recipient understands and agrees that the DOJ awarding agency (OJP or OVW, as
appropriate) may withhold award funds, or may impose other related requirements, if (as
determined by the DOJ awarding agency) the recipient does not satisfactorily and promptly
address outstanding issues from audits required by the Part 200 Uniform Requirements (or by
the terms of this award), or other outstanding issues that arise in connection with audits,
investigations, or reviews of DOJ awards.
11
Requirements of the award; remedies for non-compliance or for materially false statements
The conditions of this award are material requirements of the award. Compliance with any
assurances or certifications submitted by or on behalf of the recipient that relate to conduct
during the period of performance also is a material requirement of this award.
Limited Exceptions. In certain special circumstances, the U.S. Department of Justice ("DOJ") may
determine that it will not enforce, or enforce only in part, one or more requirements otherwise
applicable to the award. Any such exceptions regarding enforcement, including any such
exceptions made during the period of performance, are (or will be during the period of
performance) set out through the Office of Justice Programs ("OJP") webpage entitled "Legal
Notices: Special circumstances as to particular award conditions"
(ojp.gov/funding/Explore/LegalNotices-AwardReqts.htm), and incorporated by reference into
the award.
By signing and accepting this award on behalf of the recipient, the authorized recipient official
accepts all material requirements of the award, and specifically adopts, as if personally
executed by the authorized recipient official, all assurances or certifications submitted by or on
behalf of the recipient that relate to conduct during the period of performance.
Failure to comply with one or more award requirements -- whether a condition set out in full
HCBOC 050624 Pg. 195
Page 5 of 20
below, a condition incorporated by reference below, or an assurance or certification related to
conduct during the award period -- may result in OJP taking appropriate action with respect to
the recipient and the award. Among other things, the OJP may withhold award funds, disallow
costs, or suspend or terminate the award. DOJ, including OJP, also may take other legal action
as appropriate.
Any materially false, fictitious, or fraudulent statement to the federal government related to this
award (or concealment or omission of a material fact) may be the subject of criminal
prosecution (including under 18 U.S.C. 1001 and/or 1621, and/or 34 U.S.C. 10271-10273), and
also may lead to imposition of civil penalties and administrative remedies for false claims or
otherwise (including under 31 U.S.C. 3729-3730 and 3801-3812).
Should any provision of a requirement of this award be held to be invalid or unenforceable by
its terms, that provision shall first be applied with a limited construction so as to give it the
maximum effect permitted by law. Should it be held, instead, that the provision is utterly invalid
or -unenforceable, such provision shall be deemed severable from this award.
12
Compliance with DOJ regulations pertaining to civil rights and nondiscrimination - 28 C.F.R. Part
42
The recipient, and any subrecipient ("subgrantee") at any tier, must comply with all applicable

and must comply with all associated requirements in the Part 200 Uniform Requirements. The
"de minimis" rate may be applied only to modified total direct costs (MTDC) as defined by the
Part 200 Uniform Requirements.
14

recipient fails to comply with this condition. The recipient's failure to comply also may lead OJP
to impose additional appropriate conditions on this award.
19
Restrictions and certifications regarding non-disclosure agreements and related matters
No recipient or subrecipient ("subgrantee") under this award, or entity that receives a
procurement contract or subcontract with any funds under this award, may require any

HCBOC 050624 Pg. 199
Page 9 of 20
The foregoing is not intended, and shall not be understood by the agency making this award, to
contravene requirements applicable to Standard Form 312 (which relates to classified

confidentiality agreements or statements from employees or contractors that currently prohibit
or otherwise currently restrict (or purport to prohibit or restrict) employees or contractors from
reporting waste, fraud, or abuse as described above; and
(2) it has made appropriate inquiry, or otherwise has an adequate factual basis, to support this

entity that receives funds under this award is or has been requiring its employees or
contractors to execute agreements or statements that prohibit or otherwise restrict (or purport
to prohibit or restrict), reporting of waste, fraud, or abuse as described above, it will

Reclassification of various statutory provisions to a new Title 34 of the United States Code
On September 1, 2017, various statutory provisions previously codified elsewhere in the U.S.
Code were editorially reclassified (that is, moved and renumbered) to a new Title 34, entitled
"Crime Control and Law Enforcement." The reclassification encompassed a number of statutory
provisions pertinent to OJP awards (that is, OJP grants and cooperative agreements), including
many provisions previously codified in Title 42 of the U.S. Code.
Effective as of September 1, 2017, any reference in this award document to a statutory
provision that has been reclassified to the new Title 34 of the U.S. Code is to be read as a
reference to that statutory provision as reclassified to Title 34. This rule of construction
specifically includes references set out in award conditions, references set out in material
incorporated by reference through award conditions, and references set out in other award
requirements.
21
Requirement to report actual or imminent breach of personally identifiable information (PII)
The recipient (and any "subrecipient" at any tier) must have written procedures in place to
respond in the event of an actual or imminent "breach" (OMB M-17-12) if it (or a subrecipient) --
(1) creates, collects, uses, processes, stores, maintains, disseminates, discloses, or disposes of
"Personally Identifiable Information (PII)" (2 CFR 200.1) within the scope of an OJP grant-funded
program or activity, or (2) uses or operates a "Federal information system" (OMB Circular A-
130). The recipient's breach procedures must include a requirement to report actual or
imminent breach of PII to an OJP Program Manager no later than 24 hours after an occurrence
of an actual breach, or the detection of an imminent breach.
22
Requirement to disclose whether recipient is designated "high risk" by a federal grant-making
agency outside of DOJ
If the recipient is designated "high risk" by a federal grant-making agency outside of DOJ,
currently or at any time during the course of the period of performance under this award, the
recipient must disclose that fact and certain related information to OJP by email at
OJP.ComplianceReporting@ojp.usdoj.gov. For purposes of this disclosure, high risk includes any
status under which a federal awarding agency provides additional oversight due to the
recipient's past performance, or other programmatic or financial concerns with the recipient.
The recipient's disclosure must include the following: 1. The federal awarding agency that
currently designates the recipient high risk, 2. The date the recipient was designated high risk,
3. The high-risk point of contact at that federal awarding agency (name, phone number, and
email address), and 4. The reasons for the high-risk status, as set out by the federal awarding

Encouragement of policies to ban text messaging while driving
Pursuant to Executive Order 13513, "Federal Leadership on Reducing Text Messaging While
Driving," 74 Fed. Reg. 51225 (October 1, 2009), DOJ encourages recipients and subrecipients

crashes caused by distracted drivers.
24
All subawards ("subgrants") must have specific federal authorization
The recipient, and any subrecipient ("subgrantee") at any tier, must comply with all applicable
requirements for authorization of any subaward. This condition applies to agreements that --
for purposes of federal grants administrative requirements -- OJP considers a "subaward" (and
therefore does not consider a procurement "contract").
The details of the requirement for authorization of any subaward are posted on the OJP web
site at https://ojp.gov/funding/Explore/SubawardAuthorization.htm (Award condition: All
subawards ("subgrants") must have specific federal authorization), and are incorporated by

Specific post-award approval required to use a noncompetitive approach in any procurement
contract that would exceed $250,000
The recipient, and any subrecipient ("subgrantee") at any tier, must comply with all applicable
requirements to obtain specific advance approval to use a noncompetitive approach in any
procurement contract that would exceed the Simplified Acquisition Threshold (currently,
$250,000). This condition applies to agreements that -- for purposes of federal grants
administrative requirements -- OJP considers a procurement "contract" (and therefore does not
consider a subaward).
The details of the requirement for advance approval to use a noncompetitive approach in a
procurement contract under an OJP award are posted on the OJP web site at
https://ojp.gov/funding/Explore/NoncompetitiveProcurement.htm (Award condition: Specific

promptly must determine whether funds from any of those other federal awards have been,
are being, or are to be used (in whole or in part) for one or more of the identical cost items for
which funds are provided under this award. If so, the recipient must promptly notify the DOJ
awarding agency (OJP or OVW, as appropriate) in writing of the potential duplication, and, if so
requested by the DOJ awarding agency, must seek a budget-modification or change-of-project-
scope Grant Award Modification (GAM) to eliminate any inappropriate duplication of funding.
28
Reporting potential fraud, waste, and abuse, and similar misconduct
The recipient, and any subrecipients ("subgrantees") at any tier, must promptly refer to the DOJ
Office of the Inspector General (OIG) any credible evidence that a principal, employee, agent,
subrecipient, contractor, subcontractor, or other person has, in connection with funds under
this award-- (1) submitted a claim that violates the False Claims Act; or (2) committed a criminal
or civil violation of laws pertaining to fraud, conflict of interest, bribery, gratuity, or similar
misconduct.
Potential fraud, waste, abuse, or misconduct involving or relating to funds under this award
should be reported to the OIG by--(1) online submission accessible via the OIG webpage at
https://oig.justice.gov/hotline/contact-grants.htm (select "Submit Report Online"); (2) mail
directed to: U.S. Department of Justice, Office of the Inspector General, Investigations Division,
ATTN: Grantee Reporting, 950 Pennsylvania Ave., NW, Washington, DC 20530; and/or (3) by

requirements regarding registration with SAM, as well as maintaining the currency of
information in SAM.
The recipient also must comply with applicable restrictions on subawards ("subgrants") to first-
tier subrecipients (first-tier "subgrantees"), including restrictions on subawards to entities that
do not acquire and provide (to the recipient) the unique entity identifier required for SAM
registration.
The details of the recipient's obligations related to SAM and to unique entity identifiers are
posted on the OJP web site at https://ojp.gov/funding/Explore/SAM.htm (Award condition:

operate in his or her name).
30
Restrictions on "lobbying"
In general, as a matter of federal law, federal funds awarded by OJP may not be used by the
recipient, or any subrecipient ("subgrantee") at any tier, either directly or indirectly, to support
or oppose the enactment, repeal, modification, or adoption of any law, regulation, or policy, at
any level of government. See 18 U.S.C. 1913. (There may be exceptions if an applicable federal
statute specifically authorizes certain activities that otherwise would be barred by law.)
Another federal law generally prohibits federal funds awarded by OJP from being used by the
recipient, or any subrecipient at any tier, to pay any person to influence (or attempt to
influence) a federal agency, a Member of Congress, or Congress (or an official or employee of
any of them) with respect to the awarding of a federal grant or cooperative agreement,
subgrant, contract, subcontract, or loan, or with respect to actions such as renewing, extending,
or modifying any such award. See 31 U.S.C. 1352. Certain exceptions to this law apply, including
an exception that applies to Indian tribes and tribal organizations.
Should any question arise as to whether a particular use of federal funds by a recipient (or
subrecipient) would or might fall within the scope of these prohibitions, the recipient is to
contact OJP for guidance, and may not proceed without the express prior written approval of
OJP.

consultation with the recipient, and will actively monitor the project by methods including, but
not limited to, ongoing contact with the recipient. In meeting programmatic responsibilities,
OJP, BJA, and the recipient will be guided by the following principles: responsibility for the day-
to-day operations of this project rests with the recipient in implementation of the recipient's
approved proposal, the recipient's approved budget, and the terms and conditions specified in
this award. Responsibility for general oversight and redirection of the project, if necessary, rests
with BJA. In addition to its programmatic reporting requirements, the recipient agrees to
provide necessary information as requested by OJP and BJA. Information requests may include,

plus bonuses) to any employee of the award recipient at a rate that exceeds 110% of the
maximum annual salary payable to a member of the federal government's Senior Executive
Service (SES) at an agency with a Certified SES Performance Appraisal System for that year. (An
award recipient may compensate an employee at a higher rate, provided the amount in excess
of this compensation limitation is paid with non-federal funds.)
This limitation on compensation rates allowable under this award may be waived on an
individual basis at the discretion of the OJP official indicated in the program announcement
under which this award is made.
48

Bureau of Justice Assistance (BJA)
Comprehensive Opioid, Stimulant, and Substance Use Program (COSSUP)
Reaching Rural Implementation Funding
Application
Introduction
The United States is experiencing a crisis of drug
overdose deaths. While no corner of the country has
gone untouched by the overdose crisis, it has hit rural
America particularly hard. In July 2022, the Centers
for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) noted that
drug overdose death rates continue to rise in rural and
urban areas. In eight states—California, Connecticut,
Maryland, New York, North Carolina, North Dakota,
Vermont, and Virginia—the rate of drug overdose
deaths in rural counties was higher than in urban
counties.
The U.S. Department of Justice (DOJ), Office of Justice
Programs (OJP), Bureau of Justice Assistance (BJA),
the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC),
and the State Justice Institute (SJI) are co-sponsoring
this initiative.1 The Institute for Intergovernmental
Research (IIR) is releasing this solicitation on their
behalf.
1 The Reaching Rural initiative and associated funding are
continuations of the work done under the Rural Responses
to the Opioid Epidemic (RROE) initiative.
Initiative Overview and Application
BJA, CDC, and SJI support this initiative as part of an
ongoing interagency partnership to strengthen public
safety and public health collaboration under BJA’s
Comprehensive Opioid, Stimulant, and Substance
Use Program (COSSUP). COSSUP provides funding
and training and technical assistance (TTA) to state,
local, tribal, and territorial partners to support a
comprehensive response to illicit substance use and
misuse; reduce overdose deaths; promote public
safety; and support access to prevention, harm
reduction, treatment, and recovery services in the
community and justice system.
About the Opportunity
The Reaching Rural Implementation grant is designed
for rural communities participating in the Reaching
Rural planning fellowship. Only those individuals or
jurisdictions who will complete the Reaching Rural
Fellowship in December 2023 are eligible to apply
for this opportunity. The implementation funds
provided through this opportunity are intended to
provide up to $100,000 over a 15-month grant award
period to either launch a project planned during
the Reaching Rural fellowship, implement a new
Attachment F
HCBOC 050624 Pg. 212
2 / Reaching Rural Implementation Funding Application
initiative, or enhance an existing initiative, that aligns
with the allowable funding categories outlined in
this solicitation. Communities seeking longer-term
federal funding are encouraged to apply for the
Comprehensive Opioid, Stimulant, and Substance Use
Program (COSSUP) grant during their first year of the
implementation grant.
Eligibility to Apply
The applicant agency may be a county, city, or
tribal entity. All proposed activities supported
under this solicitation are designed for rural
communities. To determine if your community is
defined as “rural,” please use the Rural Health
Grants Eligibility Analyzer, a tool maintained by
the Health Resources and Services Administration
(HRSA). If you believe your community is rural but
not identified as such by the HRSA tool, please
provide documentation that your community has
been designated rural by an alternative state or
federal agency.
Implementation grants are designed to provide up
to $100,000 over a 15-month grant award period
to applicants that will complete the Reaching
Rural Fellowship in December 2023 who:
Apply with a team that demonstrates a cross-sector
partnership that, at a minimum, includes at least
one justice or public safety practitioner, at least
one public health representative, and at least one
behavioral health practitioner; and
Have an identified Project Coordinator. The Project
Coordinator will serve as the primary point of
contact for the initiative and will a) provide monthly
progress and performance data to federal funders
and IIR; b) document challenges in implementation
and successful strategies developed; and c) submit
semiannual progress reports to federal funders and
IIR and ensure timely submission of all reporting
elements; and
Propose a project that aligns with the allowable
uses associated with this funding opportunity; and
Demonstrate the ability to launch their initiative
within three months of being awarded funds.
Implementation grants are designed for rural
communities that have not previously received
and/or are not currently receiving federal
funding from the Bureau of Justice Assistance
through the Comprehensive Opioid, Stimulant,
or Substance Use Program (COSSUP) (or earlier
iterations, including the Comprehensive Opioid,
Stimulant, or Substance Abuse Program or
the Comprehensive Opioid Abuse Program) as
either a grantee or a subgrantee. Participating
in the Reaching Rural planning initiative does not
guarantee that a community will be awarded an
implementation grant.
Benefits of Receiving an
Implementation Grant
Participation in the implementation grant
includes:
Funding to launch a project developed during
the Reaching Rural planning initiative or to
implement or enhance an initiative that aligns with
the allowable funding categories outlined in this
solicitation.
Coaching and support during implementation.
Access to a diverse network of peers, innovative
rural communities, and technical assistance (TA)
providers.
Time Commitment Associated with the
Implementation Grant
Each grantee will need to identify a Project
Coordinator. Coordinators will participate in
quarterly all-site calls with all implementation
HCBOC 050624 Pg. 213
3 / Reaching Rural Implementation Funding Application
grantees. These calls will be mandatory and will be
scheduled for two hours.
All project partners, including the coordinators and
their partners, will participate in an all-site call at 7
months and 15 months to report on their project’s
progress. This call will be scheduled for a half day.
Allowable Funding Activities
Grant funds may be used to develop or implement
any combination of the allowable activities described
below. Proposed projects must be cross-sector and
collaborative in nature, engage a justice-involved
population, and focus on prevention, recovery,
treatment, and/or harm reduction. Applicants are
strongly encouraged to propose projects that can be
sustained and/or projects that can be integrated into
existing efforts within your community and/
or region. The target population for all activities is
justice-involved individuals with substance use or
co-occurring disorders. The budget cannot exceed
$100,000 for a 15-month grant award period. Funds
may be used to pay for personnel, benefits, supplies,
and training, to lease a vehicle and/or to rent office
space. Unallowable funding activities include: prizes,
rewards, entertainment, trinkets, or any other monetary
incentives; client stipends; gift cards; the purchase of
vehicles, buildings, drones, or food and beverages;
and construction.
1. Programs or Strategies that Connect Justice-
Involved Individuals to Care
Funds may be used to provide connections to care for
people in the justice system who have substance use
disorders or co-occurring substance use and mental
health conditions through programs or strategies that:
Support pre-arrest law enforcement diversion
and deflection strategies, prosecutor diversion
programs, pretrial diversion programs, or court-
diversion programs that provide recovery support
and/or access to substance use treatment.
Provide case management, evidence-informed
treatment, medication-assisted treatment, recovery
support, harm reduction, or other services
to incarcerated people with a substance use
disorder, leaving jail, under community corrections
supervision, or in re-entry programs.

through strategies that:
HCBOC 050624 Pg. 214
4 / Reaching Rural Implementation Funding Application
Increase the availability of naloxone to justice-
involved persons, including persons released from
jails and prisons or people on pretrial or probation
supervision.
4. Programs or Strategies that Support
Coordination Across Sectors
Applicants may elect to fund a coordinator to
facilitate cross-sector initiatives. This coordinator
may be the same as the project coordinator for
the Reaching Rural planning initiative or a different
person. If a coordinator is funded, they must be
primarily engaged in activities that are cross-
sector in nature versus serving a single agency
or discipline. Appropriate roles for a coordinator
include:
• Helping the local or regional cross-sector
team maintain a systemic focus over time
(e.g., working on projects that benefit multiple
agencies, not a single agency).
• Facilitating communication among cross-sector
agencies.
• Establishing a communications strategy to
provide policymakers, practitioners, and the
public with information about the initiative,
including documenting and promoting local
achievements.
• Guiding the planning and implementation of
local initiatives, including a comprehensive,
cross-agency strategy for achieving the goals
and objectives of the initiative.
• Cultivating and maintaining effective
partnerships with key public health/behavioral
health staff and public safety/criminal justice
staff to achieve the goals and objectives of
the initiative, with strategic attention to cross-
agency data sharing and data integration.
• Coordinating and convening workgroups
and required subgroups of the initiative and
ensuring follow-up to key action items and
proposals.
• Guiding the development, evaluation, and
improvement of business processes, policies
and procedures, and other protocols commonly
associated with information management and
data sharing, integration, and analysis.
• Maintaining partnerships with internal and
external partners such as other city, county,
and state agencies; community organizations;
advocacy groups; and nonprofit organizations,
foundations, and private entities.
Applicants may propose to host a local or regional
training on best practices for addressing the
needs of criminal justice-involved persons with
substance use and any co-occurring substance use
and mental health conditions to law enforcement,
correctional, or judicial personnel or providers
of treatment, recovery, harm reduction, case
management, or other services offered in
connection with any of the strategies described
in the sections above. This may include hosting
a day-long cross-sector training. No more than
$20,000 of the total budget can be used for
training and/or conference support.
The cost of supporting travel for speakers for this
event is an allowable expense. Speaker fees are
capped at $850 per day. The cost of providing
food or beverages at local or regional training is
not an allowable expense under federal guidelines
and cannot be included in the budget.
Additional Mandatory Application
Requirements
Team Letters of Commitment
Each named team member must submit a letter that
demonstrates cross-sector support of this project
and agreement to participate in project activities,
including active engagement in the virtual kickoff
HCBOC 050624 Pg. 215
5 / Reaching Rural Implementation Funding Application
event, potential peer exchanges, onsite TA, regular
communication with the project coordinator and
coaches, and assistance with developing the final
comprehensive, cross-sector strategy for achieving
the goals and the objectives of the planning process.
Letters should respond to the following:
How can you, in your role, meaningfully contribute

your community’s response to substance use? We
recognize that each sector plays a different role
and that not every role is responsible for direct
service delivery.
Express commitment to the time requirements.
Important: If a team member is not an elected official,
judge, or agency/department director, the individual
must also submit a letter from their agency director
indicating their support for the team member’s
engagement in the project.
Budget and Associated Documentation
The Budget Worksheet and the Budget Narrative are
combined in a single document collectively referred
to as the Budget Worksheet. The Budget Worksheet
is a user-friendly, fillable, Microsoft Excel-based
document designed to calculate totals. The Excel
workbook contains a worksheet for your budget and
proposed activities, which you should use to cover the
full 15 months of your project. Using the Activities tab,
complete the budget and use the budget narrative in
each section to explain the necessity of the expenses.
All applicants should use the Excel version when
completing the proposed budget in an application,
except in cases where the applicant does not have
access to Microsoft Excel or experiences technical
difficulties. If an applicant does not have access to
Microsoft Excel or experiences technical difficulties
with the Excel version, the applicant should use the
508-compliant accessible Adobe Portable Document
Format (PDF) version. The Excel version of the Budget
Detail Worksheet can be accessed at http://s.iir.com/
pK4jeVKS and the PDF version can be accessed at
http://s.iir.com/kVfgsPtc.
The Budget Worksheet should provide the detailed
computation for each budget line item, listing the total
cost of each and showing how it was calculated by the
applicant. For example, costs for personnel should
show the annual salary rate and the percentage of time
devoted to the project for each employee paid with
federal funds. The Budget Detail Worksheet should
present a complete itemization of all proposed costs.
For questions pertaining to budget and examples of
allowable and unallowable costs, see the DOJ Grants
Financial Guide at https://ojp.gov/financialguide/DOJ/
index.htm.
The Budget Summary page will auto-calculate from
the Activities tab and will reflect the amounts in the
activity categories. The Budget Worksheet should be
uploaded via the application survey.
Indirect Cost Rate Agreement (if applicable)
Indirect costs may be charged to an award only if:
a. The recipient has a current (unexpired), federally
approved indirect cost rate; or
b. The recipient is eligible to use, and elects to use,
the de minimis indirect cost rate described in the
Part 200 Uniform Requirements, as set out at 2 CFR
200.414(f).
An applicant with a current (unexpired) federally
approved indirect cost rate must upload a copy of the
indirect cost rate agreement via the application survey.
An applicant that does not have a current federally
approved rate may request one through its cognizant
federal agency, which will review all documentation
and approve a rate for the applicant entity, or, if the
applicant’s accounting system permits, applicants may
propose to allocate costs in the direct cost categories.
Certain OJP recipients have the option of electing
to use the de minimis indirect cost rate. An applicant
HCBOC 050624 Pg. 216

that is eligible to use the de minimis rate and wishes
to use the de minimis rate should upload written
documentation via the application survey that advises
OJP of both (1) the applicant’s eligibility to use the de
minimis rate and (2) its election to do so. If an eligible
applicant elects the de minimis rate, costs must be
consistently charged as either indirect or direct costs
but may not be double charged or inconsistently
charged as both. The de minimis rate may no longer
be used once an approved federally negotiated
indirect cost rate is in place. (No entity that ever has
had a federally approved negotiated indirect cost
rate is eligible to use the de minimis rate.) For the de
minimis rate requirements (including information on
eligibility to elect to use the rate), see the Part 200
Uniform Requirements, at 2 C.F.R. 200.414(f).
This document should be uploaded via the application
survey.
Applicant Certification (Required)
The applicant agency must provide a statement of
assurance signed by the authorized representative of
the applicant (e.g., county commissioner, tribal leader,
county manager, mayor, etc.) organization stating that:
Federal funds made available through this award
will not be used to supplant state, local, or tribal
funds but will be used to increase the amounts
of such funds that would, in the absence of
federal funds, be made available for the activities
addressed in the application.
There has been appropriate coordination with all
affected agencies.
The project coordinator will agree to work with
BJA and its representatives as well as the selected
BJA COSSUP training and technical assistance

ELIGIBILITY OF EXPENDITURES
The Recipient shall consider the follow ing when evaluating whether or not an expenditure is an eligible use of funds:
1) Statutory Authority: Under North Carolina General Statute 153A–449, local governments are authorized to contract with
other entities “in order to carry out any public purpose that the county is authorized by law to engage in.”

exercised in a just and equitable manner, for public purposes only . . . .” This limitation, which also applies to subrecipients
of public funds, requires that all public funds be expended for the benefit of Harnett County citizens generally, and not
solely for the benefit of particular persons or interests.
a) Programming does NOT need to benefit all citizens equally, but shall avoid significantly and directly benefit specific
individuals or entities. Benefiting specific individuals differs from benefitting a class of individuals (i.e. low-income,
elderly, food-insecure, intellectually or physically challenged, etc.). Subrecipients can provide support to a class of
individuals to fulfill certain needs identified.
3) Scope of Work: Each expenditure must be related to the Scope of Work outlined in item 4(a) of the Nonprofit Funding
Contract.
4) Salaries: No more than $140,000 in State funds, including any interest earnings accruing from those funds, may be used
for the annual salary of any individual employee of a nonprofit organization.
5) Nonreligious: The funds must be used for nonsectarian, nonreligious purposes only.
6) Interest Earnings: Interest earnings on funds shall be used for the same purposes as which the grant was made.
7) Alcohol: Funds may not be used for the purchase of alcohol.
8) Travel Expenses: Expenditures for travel mileage, meals, lodging and other travel expenses incurred in the performance
of this Contract shall be reasonable and supported by docum entation. State rates should be used as guidelines.
International travel shall not be eligible under this Contract.

REQUEST:
Administration is requesting approval to amend the Grant Project Ordinance for the
$26,411,744 received from the American Rescue Plan Act - Coronavirus State & Local
Fiscal Recovery Fund (ARPA/CSLFRF). This amendment shall recognize changes in

The 3-way agreement between NCDIT Broadband Infrastructure Office, Connect
Holding II, LLC dba Brightspeed, and the County of Harnett was approved by the
County Commissioners on December 18, 2023, however, the agreement was not fully
executed until January 2nd, 2024, so this quarter the County can officially report that
this $375,000 has been obligated.
In January, the County of Harnett entered a contract with Adams Robinson
Enterprises, Inc. for the construction of a 9MGD capacity upgrade at the North
Harnett Wastewater Treatement Plant. Although the grand total of the project is

GRANT PROJECT ORDINANCE AMENDMENT
BE IT ORDAINED by the Board of Commissioners of Harnett County, North Carolina, sitting as the governing board
for Harnett County that, pursuant to Section 13.2 of Chapter 159 of the General Statutes of North Carolina, the
following grant project ordinance is hereby adopted.
This ordinance is to establish a budget for projects to be funded by the Coronavirus State and Local Fiscal
Recovery Funds of H.R. 1319 American Rescue Plan Act of 2021 (ARPA/CSLFRF). The County of

3. Replace lost public sector revenue, using this funding to provide government services to the extent of the
reduction in revenue experienced due to the pandemic;

ATTEST:
Melissa Capps, Clerk to the Board
This ordinance will amend the Grant Project Ordinance to recognize changes in previously approved
projects and allocate funding to projects which have been approved since the last amendment.
Duly adopted this
The Finance Officer is hereby directed to maintain sufficient specific detailed accounting records to satisfy
the requirements of the grantor agency and the grant agreements, including payroll documentation and effort
certifications,in accordance with 2 CFR 200.430 & 2 CFR 200.431 and the County’s Uniform Guidance
Allowable Costs and Cost Principles Policy.
The VIPER Radio - County and Fire project is now complete. This project provided 913 radios to the
county for use by the following departments: Emergency Management Services (EMS), Fire Marshall,
Transportation (HARTS), Sheriff,and Harnett Regional Water,as well as local fire departments. The
county must pay sales tax on the purchase of goods and services but is eligible to file for reimbursement of
the sales tax paid. The original budget included the amount of sales tax; this adjustment reallocates the
unspent funds that were originally dedicated to this project.
The EMS Premium Pay project is no longer eligible under ARPA/CSLFRF because Congress declared an
end to the COVID-19 National Emergency on April 10, 2023. This adjustment reallocates the unspent funds
that were originally dedicated to this project.
The VIPER Radio - Local Law Enforcement project is ongoing.At the request of our municipalities, the
county is dedicating a portion of its ARPA/CSLFRF allocation to purchase VIPER radios for all police
departments in the County. As an eligible use, the project will provide 242 radios.
The GREAT Grant (Brightspeed) project is ongoing. Through the Growing Rural Economies with Access
to Technology (GREAT) Program, the NC Department of Information Technology (NCDIT) sought to enter
into a three-way agreement with Internet Service Providers (ISPs)and local governments to expand
broadband accessibility in rural areas. Initially, CloudWyze was identified as the ISP to receive the GREAT
Grant for Harnett County. However,in late 2023, NCDIT designated Brightspeed as the recipient. This
amendment reflects the amount that the county has agreed to match for this project.
The Finance Officer is hereby directed to report the financial status of the project to the governing board on
a quarterly basis.
Copies of this capital project ordinance shall be furnished to the Clerk to the Board, the Budget Director and
the Finance Officer for direction in carrying out this project.
This grant project ordinance amendment expires on December 31, 2026, or when all the ARPA/CSLFRF
funds have been obligated and expended by the county, whichever occurs sooner.

Section II. Responsibilities
It is further agreed that the subscribing agencies will have the following responsibilities, these
responsibilities being those most logically assumed by the several agencies:
The Municipalities and the Counties
The Municipalities and the Counties will assist in the transportation planning process by
providing assistance, data and inventories in accordance with the Prospectus. The
Municipalities and the Counties shall coordinate zoning and subdivision approval within
their respective jurisdictions in accordance with the adopted Metropolitan
Transportation Plan. Additionally, the a host agency, as designated by the Executive
Board will serve as the Lead Planning Agency for the MPO. Services provided by the
Lead Planning Agency on behalf of the MPO will be governed by mutual agreement(s).
The Municipalities and the Counties will participate in funding the portion of the costs
of the MPO’s work program not covered by federal or state funding (minimum 20%
match of actual annual expenditures) as approved by the Executive Board. The portion
to be paid by each Municipal and County member government will be based upon its
pro rata share of population within the MPO Planning Area, utilizing the most recent
certified North Carolina Office of State Planning municipal and county population
estimates. In addition, MPO members may also voluntarily contribute additional funds
for other purposes such as to participate in funding the costs of special studies, or other
specialized services as mutually agreed upon.
Failure to pay the approved share of costs shall invalidate the MPO’s Unified Planning
Work Program and annual MPO self-certification as required by 23 CFR 450. Failure to
certify shall result in the withholding of transportation project funds to the metropolitan
planning area in accordance with federal law. In order to avoid this, the Executive Board
shall amend the Unified Planning Work Program.
The municipalities and the counties receiving federal transportation funding designated
for the Urbanized Areas within the MPO Planning Area as approved by the Executive
Board through the Unified Planning Work Program shall comply with adopted reporting
and oversight procedures.

DATE: May 1, 2024
TO: Harnett County Board of Commissioners
FROM: Brent Trout, County Manager
SUBJECT: Budget Message for FY 2025
The work has been completed on the Harnett County FY 2025 budget, and it is presented to you today for review and consideration. Harnett County
prepares the annual budget in accordance with the statutory requirements with consideration of enhancing the quality for our residents. The budget has
been prepared with the purpose of supporting the strategic goals and priorities of the County Commissioners. You will see this specifically in the items we
are recommending for consideration in the expansion budget.
Property Reappraisal and Tax Rate
The property tax assessed values increased by approximately $496 million this year. The growth in home construction continues to increase our total
assessed valuation to levels never seen before in Harnett County. The continued growth in the County creates challenges for provision of services and
management of government services.
The current tax levy rate is $0.591/$100. The revenues in total compared to expenses for a continuation budget leaves a small deficit. In addition, the rapid
growth in the County and the priorities of the Board requires us to find additional resources and propose the use of a portion of existing fund balance. In
order to meet these needs, I am recommending the continuation of the current tax levy rate of $0.591/$100.
Other Revenue Sources
In looking at revenue sources other than property tax, we see good news as well as they surpass our Fiscal Year 2024 projections. The two biggest examples
of this growth in revenue are Building Inspection Fees and Sales Tax revenues. These positive increases are not surprising based on the County’s growth
pattern, however the sales tax growth is significantly less than last year.
Sales tax revenues continued to exceed our projections, but the growth is predicted to be at a more moderate rate during Fiscal Year 2025. The North
Carolina League of Municipalities (NCLM) provides sales tax forecast information, and we used their research in projecting our sales tax revenues. Based
on current research, NCLM projects that local sales tax revenues will finish Fiscal Year 2023-2024 2.9% above Fiscal Year 2022-2023 levels. They also
project a Fiscal Year 2024-2025 sales tax growth of 2.2% over Fiscal Year 2023-2024 levels.
Harnett County shares sales taxes with the municipalities based on the Ad Valorem method, meaning sales tax is distributed to the County and the
municipalities in proportion to the total amount of ad valorem taxes levied by each entity. With an increase in Medicaid costs and a decrease in sales tax
collection, we are projecting $2.1 million less in Medicaid Hold Harmless revenues.

The FY 2024 Original Budget amount for contingency was $1,460,000. As funds have been moved out of contingency into other departments, the Revised
Budget amount has been reduced to reflect these transfers. If the FY 2025 Recommended amount was compared with the original budget, the variance would
be $175,000 and the percent decrease would be 12%. This chart does not include the $1.4 million going to Harnett County Schools for maintenance needs.
Those funds are budgeted in the Board of Education Capital Reserve.
Fee Schedule Recommendations
A list of fees is recommended to be adjusted. Appendix 1 in the budget book contains the details on these changes.
We have included a recommended 17% increase across the board for rescue agencies, allocating 10% for increased operational costs and a 7% increase to
offset the loss of Medicaid Cost Settlement Funds. I am recommending increases in tax rates for two fire departments. The recommendation is detailed in
the table below and recommended increases are in red..

The justification for Fire District tax increases is as follows:
>Angier/Black River requested a 1-cent increase to help fund a new fire station and a rescue pumper truck. I am recommending a 1-cent increase in
their tax rate.
>West Area requested a 4-cent increase to make the rate equal to what is charged in Cumberland County. I am recommending a 4-cent increase in their
tax rate.
The County also levies the Averasboro School District tax. No change is recommended for that district.
Harnett County Schools
Harnett County School System (HCS) submitted their request for funding to the County. The funding details are listed below:HCBOC 050624 Pg. 302
Budget MessageHarnett County, North Carolina | Recommended Budget 2024-2025 17
>The school district will see an increase per student from $1,321.51 to $1,416.17 per student. The funding includes county and charter school students
that the school must fund. The total amount of base funding increased by $2,503,509.00 from $28,301,509 to $30,804,606. These additional funds
will help increase local supplement pay for certified staff and salary increases for classified staff.
>Provides funding for 2,048 charter school students (an increase of 519 over last year), which Harnett County Schools must share on a per-student basis.
>Holds HCS harmless for the loss of lottery funds. At the request of the Board of Education, the County is foregoing proceeds from the lottery for the
next two years due to a $10 million grant that was obtained to help fund the construction of the new Northwest Harnett Elementary. Capital outlay
spending, budgeted in the Board of Education Capital Reserve, remains at Fiscal Year 2024 levels, in spite of this loss of more than $1 million in lottery
funds. (School systems do not share capital outlay funds with charter schools).
Compensation Study, Pay Recommendations and Organizational Excellence
The completion of a compensation study last year provided support for increases in salaries for all positions in the County. The Board of Commissioners
authorized a substantial increase in pay for law enforcement and emergency medical personnel in FY 2024.
>We have a current total of 51 full-time vacancies versus 101 vacancies last year, of which 32 of those positions are in our public safety departments.
The increased compensation levels have had a positive impact on retention and recruitment.
>The recommendation included in the budget is to provide a 3% COLA increase for all employees.
>The recommendation included in the budget is to provide a 1.5% performance pay increase to staff that meet expectations and have a positive performance
evaluation.
>Increased employer contribution by 3% for health insurance premiums instead of passing an increase to employees.
>Retirement contribution increased by 0.95% for law-enforcement officers and 0.70% for all other county employees.
>There are 16 new positions recommended due to increased demand for services Nine of these new positions are in Harnett Regional Water.
>There are 12 reclassifications and two special salary adjustments recommended due to changes in duties and certifications received.
>The budget provides a shift premium of $10 per shift for certified training officers for the Emergency Communications Division of the Sheriff’s Office.
>The budget provides an additional $12.50 per day for Election Workers.
Community Programs and County Initiatives
>Provides funding for two small business grants ($5,000) in partnership with the Small Business Development Center at Central Carolina Community
College.
>Provides funding for countywide in-person customer service training and supervisory training for new and future supervisors.
>Provides funding for additional Parks and Recreation programs (instructor led classes, senior programming, athletic camps/clinics).HCBOC 050624 Pg. 303
Budget Message18 Harnett County, North Carolina | Recommended Budget 2024-2025
>Provides funding for additional Public Library programs (children’s programming).
>Provides funding towards increasing teacher supplements.
American Rescue Plan Funding Plan
>Harnett County received $26,411,744 in funding through the American Rescue Plan.
>The Board of Commissioners have approved a plan to utilize most of the American Rescue Plan funding. The Board approved an updated list of projects
that will utilize $25,058,359 of the funding with $1,353,385 to be determined at a later date.
>The FY 2024-25 budget will allocate the use of an additional $1,031,186 of those funds for one-time projects. The ARPA fund has generated over $1
million in additional revenue from earned interest. The interest may be utilized in the same manner as the supplanted funds.
>Staff has implemented some of the projects in FY 2023 and FY 2024 with a requirement to obligate all of the money by December 31, 2024 and spend
all of the money by December 31, 2026.
Other County Initiatives
The Board of Commissioners completed the first ever Strategic Plan for Harnett County in 2022. The process involved the Board of Commissioners, County
staff, and the public to develop the strategic plan. Staff completed the Performance Management process to determine action plans for the key strategic
actions. The process has continued in FY 2024 with phase four with the creation of business plans for each department to execute. The business plans
are expected to be completed and approved by the County Manager by June 30, 2024, with implementation to occur throughout the FY 2025 budget year
and into the future.
The County contracted with Cloudwyze to install a fixed wireless broadband system in the area north of the Cape Fear River. The first phase is complete
and the second phase began in early 2024 with ARPA funding. The new system will provide a new and better option for access to broadband for many
residents of Harnett County.
We spent a great deal of time projecting our revenues and expenses to ensure that we were as accurate as possible in determining our resources available
and our funding needs. Departments were asked to justify any spending over Fiscal Year 2024 budgeted amounts and their requests were reviewed in detail
by our budget team. We also continued breaking the budget into continuation and expansion funding requests. Continuation refers to funding needed for
ongoing operations, while expansion requests are for new programs and positions. Each expansion request is separately justified by the director. You will
see CONT (continuation) and EXP (expansion) columns in the budget summaries of the document. Any new request is also detailed separately, along with
the cost to the County.
Over the past few years, we have continued improving our Capital Improvements Program (CIP) process, and the Board of Commissioners adopted the CIP in
December 2024. The improved process and early adoption meant that we were able to focus our time this spring on the operating budget. In addition to the
CIP funding, the influx of ARPA funds and state directed funding allows us to address several of our capital improvement projects sooner than anticipated,
such as the fiber extension, VIPER radio replacement project, Jetport Terminal project and park improvement projects.HCBOC 050624 Pg. 304
Budget MessageHarnett County, North Carolina | Recommended Budget 2024-2025 19
The budget that I am proposing provides the funding needed by the schools, community college, and the departments to continue to provide the quality
service and support that the citizens of Harnett County expect. The proposed budget provides increases in order to operate our government and covers new
expansion items related to keeping up with our growing County and operations. The tax levy rate will remain the same as last year in the proposed budget.
I want to thank Central Carolina Community College, the Fire and EMS Departments, Harnett County Schools, and other community partners for their
collaboration in developing the Fiscal Year 2025 budget. I want to thank the department directors for submitting their information and requests in a timely
manner with well thought out justifications for their requests. I would love to meet all their requests, but unfortunately, we do not have the resources to
do so. I also want to thank Budget Director, Lisa McFadden, for all the countless hours she has spent preparing this budget for your consideration.
We have a joint session planned with the Board of Education on May 14, 2024, to discuss their budget request. The presentation of budget details will be
conducted on May 14, 2024, with a public hearing on the budget conducted on May 20, 2024. We will have the budget on as a discussion item on the May
28, 2024, meeting to address any concerns and answer any questions regarding the recommended budget. The final approval of the budget is scheduled
for the June 3, 2024, meeting.
We look forward to receiving your comments, questions, and direction over the next month regarding the proposed budget. Please contact Lisa or myself
with your questions, and we will respond as quickly as possible.
Respectfully,

Arts Funding: The County receives funding for arts programs and passes
that funding to other agencies that provide the programs. The budget is
reduced by this amount because the arts funding varies, and the County
is not certain of the amount it will receive. Once the amount is known,
a budget amendment will be done to add these funds and the offsetting
allocations.
Cultural & Recreation Appropriation
The funding in this budget includes pass-through amounts for state arts funding to towns and nonprofits in the County and a $150,000 annual appropriation
to Campbell University for use of facilities.

Fund operating costs to implement an early literacy program to support
the Library located at 455 McKinney Parkway, Lillington: Provide funding
for operating expenses to implement the “1,000 Books Before Kindergarten”
library program to increase early literacy skills and school readiness in
children ages 0-5 in Harnett County. In FY 2025, the Library will participate
in the nationwide literacy challenge, encouraging children and their parents
to read 1000 books together before Kindergarten. Collaborative reading
activities increase children’s pre-reading and literacy skills, exposing them
to heightened language proficiency and an expanded vocabulary. Research
has consistently demonstrated that children who experience reading at
home exhibit better readiness for school, setting the stage for continued
academic success throughout their educational trajectory.
Net Cost: $1,350.
Fund a one-grade reclassification to support the Library located at
455 McKinney Parkway, Lillington: Provide funding for a one-grade
reclassification of the Library Director position from grade 33 to grade
34. The Library Director position has grown with the addition of six branch
libraries. Modifications of the position description have been made to better
reflect the knowledge, abilities, and leadership skills required to provide
oversight of a Library System.
Net Cost: $6,975.

Difference between FY 2024 and FY 2025: The FY 2024 Original Budget
amount for contingency was $1,460,000. As funds have been moved out of
contingency into other departments, the Revised Budget amount has been
reduced to reflect these transfers. If the FY 2025 recommended amount
was compared with the original budget, the variance would be $175,000
and the percent decrease would be 12%.
Contingency
Amounts are budgeted in contingency to avoid inflating department budgets for “what-if” situations. For example, in the past the Emergency Services
budget included $50,000 for a debris removal contract in case a natural disaster occurred requiring this service.

$1,400,000 to fund the CIP school maintenance fund. Because of the loss
of more than $1 million in lottery proceeds, the Approved 2022-2028 CIP
reduced the funding to $410,000 per year. Because of the importance of
providing maintenance for schools, funding has been restored to what
was originally recommended. The County has absorbed the loss in lottery
proceeds.

Expansion & Other Notes
The County Manager recommends increases in tax rates for two fire departments. The increases are detailed in the table below and recommended
increases are in red.
The justifications for increases are as follows:
>Angier requested a 1-cent tax increase, and the manager recommended a 1-cent tax increase. Angier will you use the increased revenue to purchase
a new rescue pumper truck and help pay for a new fire station.
>West Area requested a 4-cent tax increase to make the rate equal to what is charged in Cumberland County. The manager recommended a 4-cent tax
increase.
The Averasboro School District is recommended at the same rate as current, 2 cents, which results in $411,935.

HARNETT REGIONAL WATER
Capital Improvement Plan
2024-25
EXECUTIVE SUMMARY
The capital improvement plan attached herewith is a working tool developed by the HRW staff to give guidance toward the
County’s water and sewer infrastructure development and capital needs program. It consists of an assessment of the
current water and wastewater systems and projects these capital needs over a ten-year period. This plan is offered to the
Board to seek their guidance and input as they look toward Harnett County’s future. This plan should be a helpful fiscal
planning tool that allows us to forecast capital demands on revenues and borrowing power to help avoid overextending
ourselves financially during the next ten years and beyond. HRW recommends that the review and approval of this capital
improvement plan be accomplished annually as part of the budget process. General approval of this document by
resolution does not commit the Board to specific approval of any one project or expenditure, nor does it appropriate
money for any project. This would still be accomplished through separate capital project ordinances. The approval by
resolution from the Board simply approves the capital improvement plan as a plan for the forecast period.

DESCRIPTION OF COUNTY
Demographics. The County, formed in 1855, has a projected population of 136,709. The per capita income for the
County is $26,962 (83rd in NC) and the median household income is $59,676 (30th in NC). The poverty rate is 13% and
the unemployment rate currently stands at 3.6%.
Land Area Configurations. Harnett County is located in the south central portion of North Carolina. It lies partially in the
Coastal Plain and partially in the Piedmont section. The eastern two-thirds of the County exhibit topographic features
common to the Coastal Plain region of North Carolina. It is an area of level to gently rolling terrain with elevations ranging
from 100 to 300 feet above sea level. The major underlying geological formation includes sedimentary rocks consisting
mostly of unconsolidated sands and clays. Topographical features of the western part of the County resemble the
Piedmont region of North Carolina. It is an area of steeper hills with elevations as high as 450 feet above sea level. The
major underlying geological formation includes crystalline rocks, such as granite and slate.
Mission Statement.
“Harnett Regional Water provides high quality water and wastewater services to residents and businesses in Harnett
County and the surrounding region. The organization is focused on customer service and is committed to environmental
stewardship. Its position on the Cape Fear River, combined with significant investments in infrastructure and foresight
from past and current leaders, will allow Harnett Regional Water to continue to serve the rapidly growing central region of
North Carolina.” HRW continues to grow from a single county water and sewer department to a regional water and
wastewater provider.

Description of Existing Facilities. Harnett Regional Water provides water and/or wastewater services to approximately
110,000 Harnett County residents. HRW also provides public water to customers in Counties contiguous to ours. These
Counties include Cumberland, Johnston, Moore, Lee, and Wake. The Harnett County Regional Water Treatment Plant
supplies water to the Harnett County municipalities of Lillington, Angier, Erwin, and Coats. It supplies water to the Towns
of Fuquay-Varina and Holly Springs in Wake County and also the Towns of Spring Lake and Linden in Cumberland
County. It also jointly supplies water to Fort Bragg through a partnership with the Public Works Commission of
Fayetteville. The Harnett County Regional Water Treatment Plant utilizes the Cape Fear River as the source for the
system’s drinking water and currently has a treatment capacity of forty-two million gallons a day (42 MGD). HRW’s water
system consists of nine County water and sewer districts. Each of these districts exists as a separate legal entity
pursuant to Chapter 162A of the North Carolina General Statutes. The County maintains and operates the districts for a
fee equal to the districts’ debt service amount. This amount is paid from general revenues received from water and/or
wastewater sales from the various districts. The County established a “Harnett County Public Utilities Fund” in 1998 that
consolidated accounting for the operation of these districts. This allowed the department to budget revenues and
expenditures in a consolidated manner rather than nine individual district budgets. HRW provides wastewater treatment
to the Towns of Angier, Coats and Lillington in Harnett County. HRW also provides wastewater treatment to the Town of
Fuquay-Varina in Wake County and Fort Bragg Army Base in Cumberland County. HRW was established in 1982 with
approximately 600 water customers and 8 employees. We have grown in the forty-one years since to approximately
44,000 water customers, 14,000 sewer customers and 110 employees. HRW infrastructure consists of approximately
1,490 miles of water mains, 420 miles of sewer collection mains and totals over $365 million dollars in assets. In addition
to the 42 million gallon per day regional water plant mentioned above, other assets include 2 wastewater treatment plants
with a combined treatment capacity of 22.5 million gallons per day, 20 elevated water storage tanks with 8.9 million
gallons of capacity, 18.2 million gallons of ground storage capacity, a 60 million gallon reservoir, 24 water booster stations
with pumping capacity of 133 million gallons per day and 102 sewer lift stations. Approximately 95% of Harnett County

residents now have access to public water. As is apparent from the above history, HRW has experienced tremendous
growth and accomplishment through the valiant efforts and foresight of past and present Harnett County Commissioners
and staff. Their dedication to a countywide water and strategically located sanitary sewer system is the reason for the
utility’s success.
WATER SYSTEM
Treatment Facility. HRW’s existing 42 mgd (million gallons per day) regional water treatment facility was recently
upgraded to that capacity in FY 2016-17 at a cost of approximately $12 million dollars. The project added four new filters,
an upgraded alum sludge disposal system, new backwash/chemical storage and modified the raw water intake and raw
water/reservoir low-lift pump stations. Moore County, Johnston County, the Towns of Holly Springs and Fuquay-Varina in
Wake County, as well as Fort Bragg in Cumberland County are the current capacity holders in the Harnett County
Regional Water Treatment Facility. Currently, HRW is piloting the current treatment facility to establish what
improvements will be needed to safely remove PFAS and PFOA (and other such chemicals) from our water supply. Once
the pilot study is complete the needed treatment improvements will be added to this capital improvement plan. Due to the
tremendous residential growth in the County, Harnett Regional Water is also committed to building a new 8-10 mgd water
treatment facility in the Erwin area of the County. Our planning estimates project the new plant will be needed to
supplement the existing Harnett Regional Water Treatment Plant by the end of this decade. Cost estimates are currently
approximately $70 million dollars for the project as it will be funded by revenue bonds and HRW reserves. There is also
the strong possibility that other surrounding entities will be interested in purchasing capacity in the new planned water
treatment facility. Those discussions have already began.
Water Supply Plan. The State of North Carolina requires that all water systems submit an approved water supply plan
annually. This plan is currently being updated by the HRW staff. The purpose of this plan is to provide evidence to the
HCBOC 050624 Pg. 482
Harnett County, North Carolina | Recommended Budget 2024-2025 197 Harnett countY Fiscal Year 2025 Harnett regional Water- - 5
State that the water system is providing adequate planning for the supply of water through a designated planning period.
Water supply planning is also continuing in the area of hydraulic modeling as the engineering firm of Hazen & Sawyer is
engaged in providing an updated water hydraulic model of our entire distribution system. This will be critical importance in
planning and directing future water resources to accommodate new growth.
Water Conservation Measures. Harnett County amended its Water Shortage & Conservation Ordinance in the spring of
2008. The ordinance was amended in response to the drought conditions in our area over the last several years. The
ordinance now more clearly defines the stages of water conservation and what triggers their enactment. It also
established a normal irrigation schedule and increased the department’s enforcement authority during emergencies. Our
water supply is a critical resource that must be protected at all costs.
Water Distribution System.
HRW is in design discussions with the Town of Holly Springs in Wake County to upgrade our distribution system by
constructing a 12 MGD intermediate pump station and 1 million gallon elevated storage tank to complete HRW’s ability to
supply the Town with their entire 10 MGD water capacity allocation. This project is estimated to cost approximately $23
million dollars and would be jointly funded from the Town of Holly Springs and HRW. It is estimated to begin in FY 26 but
could happen earlier depending upon the Town’s schedule. The Erwin Water and Wastewater Project is planned for FY
25 and will make needed water and wastewater improvements in certain areas of the Town. This project is estimated to
cost $1.5 million dollars. The Harnett Jetport Utility Extension Project is planned for FY 27 and consists of the extension of
approximately 5,000 linear feet of 8 inch waterline and 4 inch sewer force main with the construction of a wastewater
pump station to serve the expansion of the facilities at and adjacent to the Harnett Regional Jetport. This project is
estimated to cost approximately $2.5 million dollars.

Regional Interconnects. As you are aware, Harnett County’s water system is interconnected to several area public
water systems that we do not provide water to including: the City of Dunn, the Town of Benson, the City of Raleigh, the
Town of Apex, the City of Fayetteville (PWC), the City of Durham, and finally the Town of Cary. These connections are of
a vital importance in the event of emergency water shortage conditions. The ability to provide and receive additional
water from these various sources makes all of these systems more dependent upon each other and truly interconnected
in a regional manner. HRW is a member of the Triangle Water Supply Partnership and our water system participates with
the triangle water utilities in regional water supply planning, with the goal of collaboratively planning for, maintaining, and
implementing, long-term sustainable and secure water supplies for our region in the future.
WASTEWATER SYSTEM
Wastewater Treatment and Collection. The County currently owns two active wastewater treatment plants, the North
Harnett Regional Wastewater Treatment Plant and the South Harnett Regional Wastewater Plant. The South Harnett
plant began operation in June 2009 and has a capacity of 15 mgd. It serves all of the southern area of the County and
Fort Bragg. The North Harnett Wastewater Treatment Plant has a capacity of 7.5 MGD and recently underwent major
modifications to its filters and bio-solids storage facilities as part of the North Harnett Wastewater Treatment Plant
Upgrade Project. This project was completed in FY 2020-21 at a cost of approximately $11 million dollars. The North
Harnett Wastewater Treatment Plant is also under construction for a major capacity upgrade which will increase the
plant’s capacity to 16 MGD. This project costs approximately $112 million dollars and includes participation from our
regional wastewater partner towns of Angier, Fuquay-Varina and Lillington. This major expansion is expected to be
complete in FY 26. The Southwest Wastewater Pump Station & Force Main Project consists of the renovation of our
regional sewer lift station and the construction of approximately 5 miles of 20 inch sewer force main along Hwy 87 in the
Southwest portion of Harnett County. This project is currently under design and is estimated to cost approximately $9
million dollars and construction should be underway in FY 25.

Regional Wastewater Facilities. Harnett County has commissioned four different engineers since 1968 to look at
comprehensive approaches to the long-range planning of Harnett County’s water and wastewater needs. The most
recent of these is the Northern Harnett Wastewater Master Plan for the Districts in the northern section of the County.
This study was authored by Hazen and Sawyer and was completed in FY 2017-18. All of these wastewater plans have
concluded that a regional approach utilizing a consolidation of systems is the best plan practical for protection of public
health and economic development. There will continue to be County development of services which will extend from
existing facilities; and, due to the escalating cost of expansion and operating expenses, it is likely that other regions within
the County will be attempting to regionalize systems within the next ten years. In addition to this, regulatory restraints will
force regionalization to happen in order to eliminate as many discharges into our water basin as possible. Areas outside
the County, which are tributary to our drainage basins and wastewater treatment facilities, (i.e. southern Wake County and
northern Cumberland County as recent examples) also provide realistic opportunities for regionalization. These
relationships should be nurtured to provide the greatest scale of economy in building additional wastewater collection lines
to serve Harnett County citizens.
FINANCIAL PLANNING
Revenue Projections. Revenue projections for the next 10 years are difficult if not impossible to correctly predict. They
are tied to a myriad of factors including residential and commercial growth in the County, local and regional economic
conditions, and the ability of our utility to meet all future water and sewer needs throughout the County and region. Before
we can attempt to predict future revenues, we need to look at current revenue trends for the last several fiscal years.

FY 21-22 $49,139,362
FY 22-23 $49,568,547
You can see from these figures that annual revenues increased by $14,944,448 in the last nine fiscal years. This
represents a 43% increase in annual operating revenues in that time span. The majority of this increase is due to the
growth of water and wastewater infrastructure throughout the County and increasing growth of water supply to the
surrounding region. Rates must be adjusted to cover the ever increasing cost of service to include debt repayment and
meet capital reserve targets to cover emergencies and capital project funding. The overall financial strategy of the
Department is to continue to maximize revenues consistent with an even pace of residential and commercial/industrial
growth within the County. Expenditures will be kept in line consistent with adequately maintaining treatment and
distribution systems while emphasizing regulatory compliance in all areas. Harnett Regional Water is at a historical
crossroads in the sense that 95% of all County residents have access to water. Additional access to water has been the
primary source of a growing revenue base in the past. However, since most areas within the County now have access to
water, future revenue growth will be directly correlated to the Department’s goal to provide access to sewer to densely
populated unincorporated areas of the County and the Department’s ever increasingly important role as a regional water
and wastewater treatment provider to surrounding municipalities, counties and Fort Bragg.

CUSTOMER SERVICE IMPROVEMENTS
HRW recently had a “Public Utilities Efficiency Study” completed by the Management Consulting firm of Martin-McGill out
of Asheville, NC. Although the overwhelming result of the study was positive, one of the main recommendations for
improvement within the department was in the area of customer service. Specifically, the need to upgrade existing
outdated technologies such as water/sewer customer billing software that was over a decade old, asset management
work order software, automated customer telephone systems, etc. HRW has aggressively started that process and has
recently completed the installation of a new and enhanced customer information system (CIS) software system that
includes a mobile work order and enhanced customer portal system. We have also engaged with new providers to
enhance our existing Interactive Voice Response (IVR) telephone system to give customers access to enhanced
technological features. HRW has also installed updated smart meters. These new meters send usage data to HRW
through a wireless network and provide much more information to our customers and staff. All of these efforts have
greatly improved our customers access to information and allowed us to serve their needs much more efficiently.

206 About the Capital Improvements Program (CIP) Harnett County, North Carolina | Recommended Budget 2024-2025
harnett countyAbout the Capital Improvements Program (CIP)
The CIP is a long-term plan for funding the County’s major capital needs. It shows how facilities, equipment, and other projects that cost $100,000 or more
could be scheduled and funded over the next seven years, beginning in FY 2025 .
It is important to state upfront that this is a PLAN, not a BUDGET, since a budget controls the actual spending of allocated funds. While staff attempts to
be as accurate as possible, it is difficult to estimate project costs exactly, particularly early in the planning process. Before funds can be spent, they must
be budgeted through the operating budget or, in most cases, through a separately adopted project ordinance.
The same is true for operating costs, particularly for new facilities. As facilities are being planned, staff attempts to identify operating costs, such as staffing
and utilities. The cost of these items depends on final square footage and operational issues that may not be apparent until the facility is far along in planning.
CIP Process
The CIP is a plan which is updated annually and may be modified at any time to reflect changing conditions. A CIP is a systematic way of anticipating,
planning, and budgeting for major projects. The adoption of a CIP can improve the credit worthiness (bond rating) of a jurisdiction.
Timeline for adoption:
>CIP requests originate at the department/agency level. Requests were submitted on or before September 23, 20233. Staff provided support to Harnett
County Schools (HCS) and Central Carolina Community College (CCCC).
>The Manager’s Office is responsible for reviewing new and existing requests and recommending a proposed CIP to the Board of Commissioners. The
recommended CIP was presented on November 20, 2023. During the November 28, 2023, work session, Commissioners reviewed the recommendation
in detail..
>Public comment was held on December 4, 2023.
>The CIP was adopted on December 18, 2023.
Overall Approach
Keep in mind that the Capital Improvement Program is just a plan. While a great deal of effort and analysis have gone into the development of the CIP, it
will most likely change during the fiscal year. The CIP will continue to be reviewed throughout the year, and recommended plan changes will be presented
to the Board of Commissioners for consideration.
While many of the projects are funded through capital reserve funds, the CIP proposes three projects funded through debt, including the construction of
a middle school, a gymnasium addition at Lillington-Shawtown Elementary School, and the construction of a new animal shelter. The animal shelter and
middle school projects were previously earmarked as future endeavors in the previous year’s CIP.
HCBOC 050624 Pg. 492
Harnett County, North Carolina | Recommended Budget 2024-2025 About the Capital Improvements Program (CIP) 207 harnett countyStaff tries to include reasonable escalation of costs in project budgets, but because projects are scheduled in the future actual inflation may prove higher
than planned inflation. Due to the current high demand for construction and the increasing cost of materials, the prior escalation of 5-8% is now too low,
and higher rates are now being applied.
Board of Education
The Board of Education has requested approximately $200 million (in today’s dollars) in new facility requests. The County currently does not have the
resources to pay for these facilities, so these projects are shown as future projects in the CIP.
In April 2023, as part of its FY 2024 budget request, the Board of Education presented a list of facility needs to the Board of Commissioners. The list and
how the CIP addresses these needs are as follows (per the Board of Education document, costs shown below are estimates and do not include escalation
or maintenance-type requests):

>Harnett Regional Jetport (HRJ) -- Runway Expansion: Construct a 500-foot extension of the HRJ runway to provide adequate space to meet the demands
of the growing aviation industry in our region.
Assumptions
Generally, construction costs are inflated 10-12% per year. Staff also recommends a 5-10% contingency for most projects.
Other project costs, such as equipment, and operating costs are usually inflated by a factor of 3% per year, unless there is good reason to use another
inflationary factor (which will be noted).
Operating costs are generally inflated 3% per year unless costs are fixed by contract.
Debt Indicators
As the list above demonstrates, there are significant future projects on the horizon, namely school facilities, the construction of a new animal shelter, and
construction of a new housing unit at the County’s detention center, which is projected to need an addition in the next ten years. All these projects will
require that the County issue debt in order to fund them. Harnett County already has a fairly high debt burden (figures below are from the NC Treasurer’s
2022 Analysis of Debt report):
>The debt to appraised value ratio is 1.793%. The average ratio of counties 100,000 to 249,999 population is 0.96%. The highest ratio in the population
group is 1.793%.
>Harnett County’s debt per capita (what each resident would owe if the debt had to be repaid today) is $1,272. The average debt per capita for the
population group is $1,150. The highest debt per capita in this group is $2,250..
The County currently contributes $11 million from the general fund to fund existing and planned future debt. In addition, sales tax restricted for education
is accumulated for debt. The County should be judicious about issuing new debt and work closely with Harnett County Schools to identify top priorities for
funding.
