BOOK 8 PACE261 <br />Mr. James Clark, County Tax Supervisor, reported to <br />the Board that B. C..Moore & Sons, Inc., had incorrectly <br />stated its inventory in the years 1969, 1970, and 1971; that <br />the.correct tax for those years should have been for 1969, <br />$472.89; for 1970, $430.23; and for 1971, $630.79; and that <br />he and the corporate officers had reached agreement on the <br />foregoing figures. Upon motion of Commissioner William H. <br />Cooper, seconded by Commissioner J. Eugene Rogers, settlement <br />of the tax liability in the manner recommended by the County <br />Tax Supervisor was approved. <br />The question of the surplus automobiles presently <br />owned by the County was discussed and Commissioner J. Eugene <br />Rogers was authorized to sell and dispose of said automobiles <br />in the manner in which he deems most advantageous to the County <br />and the one that is calculated to bring the highest return. The <br />motion was made by Commissioner Cooper, seconded by Commissioner <br />Franklin D. Wicker, and unanimously adopted. <br />The question of the purchase of the Jernigan property <br />for use by the Hospital and the Fleming property for use by the <br />Library was discussed, and it was authorized to complete purchase <br />of these houses with money to be taken from the Revenue Sharing <br />Funds. <br />The inquiry of the Sheriff with respect to his salary <br />was communicated to the Board, but no action was taken. <br />Commissioner Cooper reported that assistance from the <br />State is being requested in purchasing an ambulance but that at <br />the present time, it appears doubtful that the County will be <br />eligible for additional help. <br />The proposal about securing employment for elderly <br />persons to enable them to qualify for Social Security benefits <br />was referred to the County Council on Aging. <br />-7- <br />
