The Chairman expressed his concern on the fact that the State or Federal Government does not fund a program like this to fight drugs. Commissioner Cox advised that he would like to see the Town of Broadway involved in this program. Commissioner Stafford suggested tabling this today and asking the County Manager to discuss this with the town of Broadway. The County Manager advised that the training for this program begins August 15th and it is imperative that the person employed by the Sheriff be able to participate in this training. Commissioner Dossenbach advised that since there is no time to talk to the officials in Broadway; we should go ahead and approve the program this year and then talk with Broadway about the program next year. Commissioner Matthews moved that Lee County enter a contract with the Board of Education and the Sanford City Police Department to pay one third cost for this year to implement the D.A.R.E. Program. The motion was seconded by Commissioner Dossenbach and upon a vote the results were as follows: Aye: Cox, Dossenbach, Matthews, and Wicker Nay: Stafford The Chairman ruled the motion carried by a vote of 4 to 1. The County Attorney reported that the contract has been received from Triangle J Council of Governments on the Aging Program. It has been reviewed by the people at the Department for the Aging.

The County Attorney recommended that the Board authorize the execution of the contract. Commissioner Cox moved to approve the contract with Triangle J Council of Governments for one year and to establish a program in lieu of this for another type of consortium, perhaps with other counties. Commissioner Dossenbach seconded the motion and upon a vote the results were as follows: Aye: Cox, Dossenbach, Matthews, Stafford and Wicker Nay: None The Chairman ruled the motion carried unanimously.
