Crumpton was looking for guidance on whether to include a COLA for next year, questioning if that was adequate. A comparison to other commissioner's salaries was provided to the Board. Chair Dalrymple asked if HR would provide an objective recommendation and reminded the Board that there may be other costs incurred for commissioners in the upcoming year related to the Granicus agenda management project. No action taken. E. Discussion Reaardina Lee County's Contracts with the City of Sanford Dr. Crumpton reviewed the budget impacts of the city contracts and noted the community development budget. Dr. Crumpton did not include money in this year's budget related to the S3 Housing Connect that was included in last year's budget, as it was intended as a one-time expense. He also mentioned that the city would like the county to participate in a UDO study for residential design issues. Dr. Crumpton noted that when there was a study for oil & gas issues, the county funded that without assistance from the city because it was primarily a county issue and he questioned if a study for residential design issues was more related to city issues — he did indicate this is currently funded in the recommended budget, just raising the question for commissioners to consider. Dr. Crumpton also noted the inspection department contract may be different from the city request due to an issue related to the county share of inspection revenue profits from previous years that should be applied to this year's expense share. No action taken. F. Fundina Reauest from Juvenile Detention Due to changes to the legal age for convictions of minors from 16 to 18 years old, there is an expected increase in expenses for juvenile detention; however, the estimate by the state more than doubled the current expense of $100,000 to an estimated $235,000. The recommended budget left the expense at $100,000 and staff will watch this number as the year progresses because staff felt the estimate was too high. No action taken. G. Anv other budaetary items related to the FY2019-2020 budaet Dr. Crumpton shared the calculation of the revenue neutral rate is 77.68, cents but for the recommended budget he used a rate of 77.5 cents. Commissioners were informed that both Central Carolina Community College and the Lee County Board of Education have been invited to the June 3, 2019 budget workshop. No action taken. IV.
