Sarah Arbour, Planner II, petitioned the Board for a Public Hearing on Proposed Zoning Change: Case #
PLAN2405-0001 Landowner / Applicant: Gerardo Roman-Rivas; 1.2 +/- acres; Pin #0513-96-
1870.000; From Commercial to RA-20M Zoning District; Anderson Creek Township; Off NC 210
South. Ms. Arbour reviewed the following information regarding the requested rezoning:
The site is currently wooded and unimproved. The property is accessed via an unnamed easement with
connection to NC 210 S. A 100’ wide power line transmission right-of-way runs through the north
corner of the property. The best available information provided through county records indicates that the
property has never been used for commercial purposes. There are several other single-family residential
homes located in the vicinity which also have a Commercial zoning designation that have not been used
for any other purpose other than a residence. The owner of the property was unaware that the property
was zoned Commercial until beginning the permitting process for a residence. Surrounding land uses
consist of single-family residences, manufactured homes, vacant land, and some commercial uses in the
vicinity.
Staff’s evaluation:
• The subject property is contiguous to the requested zoning district, RA-20M, and would not
require an evaluation for reasonableness as a small-scale rezoning.
• There is a convincing demonstration that all uses permitted under the proposed district would
be in the interest of the general public and not merely in the interest of the individual group.
This property is surrounded by residential land uses, and the uses permitted in the RA-20M
zoning district are more compatible with the surrounding land uses than the uses in the current
zoning classification.
• There is convincing evidence that all uses permitted in the proposed district classification
would be appropriate in the area. The uses permitted in the RA-20M zoning district are more
appropriate for the area than the uses permitted in the current zoning classification.
• There is a convincing demonstration that the character of the neighborhood will not be
materially and adversely affected by any of the uses permitted in the RA-20M zoning district.
A change of zoning to the requested zoning district would ensure that the character of the
neighborhood remains compatible with the surrounding residential land uses.
• The requested zoning district is compatible with both future land use designations, Medium
Density Residential and Rural Centers. Due to the surrounding land uses, the location of the
site, and conditions of site access, a change of zoning would be in accordance with sound
planning practices.
At the July 1, 2024 Planning Board meeting, the Planning Board voted unanimously (4-0) to recommend
approval of the requested rezoning of the property to the RA-20M zoning district. The Planning Board
HCBOC 080524 a Pg. 6
Harnett County Board of Commissioners
Regular Meeting Minutes
July 15, 2024
Page 4 of 5
found the request to rezone to the RA-20M zoning district was more compatible with the future land use
classification and the surrounding land uses. There were no residents present to speak in opposition.
Chairman Morris opened the public hearing and asked if there was anyone who would like to speak in
favor of the request and the following person spoke:
1. Amy Roman, daughter of the applicant spoke in favor of the request.
Commissioner McKoy asked what the property was currently zoned, and Ms. Roman stated commercial.
Chairman Morris asked if there was anyone that would like to speak in opposition of the request. No one
spoke.
Chairman Morris closed the public hearing.
Vice Chairman Matthews made a motion to approve the rezoning request to the RA-20M zoning district
as the requested zoning district is compatible with the land use classification and surrounding land uses.
Commissioner Weatherspoon asked if RA-20M was mobile home or manufactured home. Ms. Arbour
stated RA-20M and as well as RA-20R allow for a manufactured home. Commissioner Weatherspoon
seconded the motion and the motion carried unanimously. (Attachment 4)
Commissioner Weatherspoon made a motion to approve the budget amendments as requested by the
Finance Officer. The motion was seconded by Commissioner McKoy and carried unanimously.
(Attachment 5)
Vice Chairman Matthews made a motion to approve the tax rebates, refunds and releases as requested
by the Tax Administrator. The motion was seconded by Commissioner Weatherspoon and carried
unanimously. (Attachment 6)
Commissioner McKoy made a motion to approve contracts/amendments for FY 25 in the amount of
$2,218,200.00 for the following:
• $710,000.00 C & S Chemical Aluminum sulfate
• $420,000.00 Oltrin solutions 15% Sodium Hypochlorite

The motion was seconded by Commissioner Weatherspoon and carried unanimously.
Carl Davis, Parks and Recreation Director reviewed a request for the Board to consider the submission
of a Land and Water Conservation Fund grant application for the construction of Phase 1 outlined in the
Neills Creek Park Master Plan (adopted in March 2024). Phase 1 will include a playground, picnic
shelter, restrooms, walking trail, and additional infrastructure for Phase 1 and future phases. Parks and
Recreation is requesting to apply for $500,000 in grant funds requiring a dollar-for-dollar match from
the County. The County currently has $739,400 allocated in the CIP for this project and a Parks and
Recreation Trust Fund application will also be submitted in 2025 with Board of Commissioner
authorization. Commissioner McKoy asked what is going on in Shiners Park. Mr. Davis stated funds are
available in the CIP to begin work on the picnic shelter, playground and restroom facility. Vice
Chairman Matthews asked with Phase 1 will that include the new entrance off of Highway 210. Mr.
Davis stated yes, it will only go to the first full amenities first. Vice Chairman Matthews made a motion
for approval of submission a Land and Water Conservation Fund grant application. The motion was
seconded by Commissioner Weatherspoon and it was carried unanimously.
Commissioner Weatherspoon made a motion to go into Closed Session to consult with the County’s
Legal Counsel in order to preserve the attorney-client privilege concerning the handling of certain
claims. This motion is made pursuant to NC General Statute Section 143-318.11 (a) (3). The motion was
seconded by Vice Chairman Mathews and carried unanimously.
Following a motion to come out of closed session, Chairman Morris called the meeting back to order in
open session.
Vice Chairman Matthews made a motion to adjourn at 6:34 pm. The motion was seconded by
Commissioner Weatherspoon and carried unanimously.

IV. LOCAL COUNSEL FEE FUND
Local Counsel have reviewed the Kroger Settlement, find it to be equitable, and
recommend their clients execute the Kroger Settlement and this SAAF-2. If (1) all
Local Counsel sign this SAAF-2 whereby they consent to the terms of this SAAF-2
and agree to be legally bound by this SAAF-2, including but not limited to Section IV of
this SAAF-2, and (2) all Required Local Governments agree on or before August 12,
2024 to execute the Kroger Settlement, and dismiss litigation against Kroger (if
applicable), as required by the Kroger Settlement, then each Local Counsel shall be
entitled to receive a portion of the Local Counsel Fee Fund for the Kroger
Settlement, in such proportions as set forth below. If one or more Required Local
Governments does not execute the Kroger Settlement, and dismiss litigation (if
applicable), as required by the Kroger Settlement, then the 0.38% share of Kroger
Funds set forth in Section III.B.2 of this SAAF-2 for the Local Counsel Fee Fund
shall be included in the Local Kroger Abatement Funds, such that 85% of the
Kroger Funds will be allocated to Local Kroger Abatement Funds, and 0% will be

representation of North Carolina counties and municipalities regarding opioid

to collect any fees due from National Counsel. If one or more National Counsel fails
to release its North Carolina client counties and/or municipalities from any
contractual obligation to pay legal fees or costs relating to their representation of
North Carolina counties and municipalities regarding opioid claims and litigation
against Kroger, as required for National Counsel and Local Counsel to receive a
portion of the national fee funds created by the Kroger Settlement, then the 0.38%
share of Kroger Funds set forth in Section III.B.2 of this SAAF-2 for the Local
Counsel Fee Fund shall be included in the Local Kroger Abatement Funds, such
that 85% of the Kroger Funds will be allocated to Local Kroger Abatement Funds,
and 0% will be allocated to the Local Counsel Fee Fund.
The proportion of the Local Counsel Fee Fund to be received by each Local Counsel
will be the same as for the Local Counsel Fee Fund created by the SAAF. Each
Local Counsel’s release of claims against all North Carolina counties and
municipalities as provided above shall remain in full force and effect regardless of
the proportion of the Local Counsel Fee Fund that any Local Counsel receives.

Spectrum was chosen for a second GREAT Grant project in Harnett County. The
County's match for this project is $375,000.
Connect Holding II, Inc., dba Brightspeed, was chosen as the Internet Service Provider
(ISP) for the Completing Access to Broadband (CAB) Program. This program, also
facilited by NC Department of Information Technology (DIT), will funciton similarly to
the GREAT Grant. The County's match for this project is $1,941,785.
In the County's quarterly report to US Treasury for April - June 2024, the County
reported the VIPER Radio - Local Law Enforcement project as completed and adjusted
the obligation amount to remove sales tax. The two broadband grants described above
were not included in the report for April - June 2024 because the contracts were not
fully executed during this time period.

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

following categories of expenditures, to the extent authorized by state law:
2. Address negative economic impacts caused by the public health emergency, including economic harms to
workers, households, small businesses, impacted industries, and the public sector;
1. Support public health expenditures, by funding COVID-19 mitigation efforts, medical expenses,
behavioral healthcare, and certain public health and safety staff;
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;
4. Provide premium pay for essential workers, offering additional support to those who have borne and will
bear the greatest health risks because of their service in critical infrastructure sectors; and,
5. Invest in water, sewer, and broadband infrastructure, making necessary investments to improve access to
clean drinking water, support vital wastewater and stormwater infrastructure, and to expand access to
broadband internet.

ATTEST:William Morris, Chairman
Harnett County Board of Commissioners
Melissa Capps, Clerk to the Board
This ordinance will amend the Grant Project Ordinance to allocate funding to the projects outlined below which have
been approved by the Board of Commissioners.
The GREAT Grant (Spectrum) project is ongoing.Through the same program outlined previously, the county has
entered into a three-way agreement with Spectrum for a second GREAT Grant award. This amendment reflects the
amount that the county has agreed to match for this project.
The CAB Grant (Brightspeed) is ongoing.Through the Completing Access to Broadband (CAB) program, the NC
Department of Information Technology (NCDIT) enters into a three-way agreement with ISPs and county governments
to deploy broadband projects in unserved areas of each county.
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.
The North Harnett Wastewater Treatment Plant upgrade is ongoing.This project is expected to cost over
$100,000,000. This infrastructure upgrade is an eligible use of ARPA funds, so $5,000,000 of the County's ARPA
allocation will be contributed to this project.
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 complete.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.
