<br />6. Marshall Downey, current Community Development Director discussed the current
<br />Subdivision Ordinance that was adopted after this development was started and
<br />therefore does not fall under the Ordinance.
<br />Commissioner Reives stated the Board needed to study the matter further (maybe with the City) and
<br />come up with a solution to assist the 25% of residents that will not be able to pay the assessment
<br />charges and /or are not willing to pay. He felt more research needed to be done before a Policy is
<br />adopted. After further discussion, Commissioner Reives moved to defer action on the Subdivision
<br />Street Maintenance Policy until more research can be completed. Upon a vote, the results were as
<br />follows:
<br />Aye: Dalrymple, Frazier, Knecht, Oldham, Reives, and Sloan
<br />Nay: None
<br />Absent: Smith
<br />The Chair ruled the motion had been adopted unanimously.
<br />Ms. Victoria Whitt, CEO of the Sandhills Center provided the required paperwork to appear
<br />before the Board and present her FY 2015 -16 budget funding request and program updates. Ms. Whitt
<br />stated the Sandhills Center was not asking for an increase in County General Funding from Lee County
<br />for the upcoming year. The total funding request for Lee County is $240,000, which has not been
<br />increased during the past eleven years. All funding received is directed in support of local County
<br />Behavioral Health Urgent Access /Crisis Clinics, unless otherwise designated. It was further stated that
<br />County General Funding is critical to sustaining the current level of crisis /psychiatric services for the
<br />consumers and families in Lee County. Any reduction in funding will result in a reduction in the
<br />services offered locally. No action was taken.
