The Board considered bids for the rehabilitation of a house for the 2011 Scattered Site Housing Grant Program. Community Development Manager Karen Kennedy stated an ad had been placed in The Sanford Herald and bid packages emailed to 16 firms for the rehabilitation of a house located at 157 Hayes Road. The following three bids were received for the project: Touch Construction, Sanford $28,330.00 Compendium Contracting, Sanford $28,860.00 D & A Complete Construction, Lumberton $30,750.00 Recommendation from staff was to accept the bid from Compendium Contracting as the most responsible bidder and from past work experience. After discussion, Commissioner Frazier moved to accept the low bid of $28,860.00 from Compendium Contracting for the above referenced rehabilitation project. Upon a vote, the results were as follows: Aye: Dalrymple, Frazier, Knecht, Oldham, Reives, and Sloan Nay: None Absent: Smith The Chair ruled the motion had been adopted unanimously. The Board considered a Resolution to consider a Policy for Remote Participation for County Board Meetings. County Attorney Kerry Schmid stated that in order to avoid any legal ramifications, it is necessary to adopt a policy setting out rules and procedures for remote participation at County Board of Commissioners meetings. The policy addresses when remote participation will be allowed, whether a remote participant may vote, and whether member's telephonic presence is counted toward the quorum requirement. Commissioner Reives questioned the number of times a member could participate remotely, the grounds to allow remote participation, and if that individual would be allowed to make motions. The question was also raised if the Chair could ask the remote participate if they were at their office or where they are at the time of the teleconference call. Attorney Schmid stated she would revise the Policy and bring back to the Board for consideration at the January 5th meeting. No action was taken. The Board considered a voting delegate for the January Legislative Goals Conference. The North Carolina Association of County Commissioners (NCACC) is requesting a voting delegate be appointed from Lee County for the January 15 -16, 2015 Legislative Goals Conference in Pinehurst. After discussion, Commissioner Reives moved to appoint Commissioner Amy Dalrymple as Lee County's Voting Delegate for said conference. Upon a vote, the results were as follows: Aye: Dalrymple, Frazier, Knecht, Oldham, Reives, and Sloan Nay: None Absent: Smith The Chair ruled the motion had been adopted unanimously. 4
