~on1 13 was adopted by the flowing vote: Aye: Cox, Dossenbach, Matthews, Stafford and Wicker Nay: None The Chairman ruled the motion carried unanimously. The County Manager reported on a letter from Mr. Brad Barker of the Triangle J Council of Governments, dated June 28, 1990. The letter states basically that they will service us this year . to avoid any disruption of services to the elderly clients in Lee County...." They also passed a resolution to review the Council's allocation formula for the distribution of aging funds. According to Mrs. Pam Adams, Director of the Department for the Aging, this means that they are proposing to do some inter local agreements that would hold all the counties harmless except Lee County in a re-distribution formula. Mr. Cowan advised that he is not sure if the Division of Aging would approve this or not. It is something that would be decided by the Division of Aging and not the Triangle J Council of Governments. Also, they took action to review the service area boundary for TJCOG with a view toward realignment of the service area to a five county region. In order to do that they have to petition the State to remove Lee County from that Triple A. There would have to be a Public Hearing held and it has to be demonstrated that the elderly population would not be affected by that move. If it can be demonstrated that this would have an adverse effect on the Lee County elderly, the State would more than likely deny that request. The County Attorney reported that he had checked with other counties concerning contracts between counties and architects. Most architects draw the agreement and use an AIE form which is a contract drawn by architects for architects. Some counties still use it and take out the arbitration clause. The State of North Carolina uses another contract (Mr. Hoyle distributed copies of the State Contract). This incorporates some planning procedures which lists state agencies that have to approve the plans. Those 20 pages have been deleted and we have inserted that the architect has to get approvals from all the state, local and federal agencies. Mr. Hoyle concluded that since the Board has discussed contracts with two architects that a committee may be appointed to review and finalize this document. The Chairman appointed Commissioner Cox to serve on a committee with Mr. Hoyle and Mr. Cowan to review and finalize this document. Commissioner Stafford moved to enter an executive session to discuss a contractual matter. Commissioner Cox 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 and the Board was in executive session. 9
