BOOK i~ rr,GE Mr. Elwin J. Buchanan, Grants Director, appeared before the Board and explained work that had been done concerning the application for grants to improve the Industrial Park. Mr. Buchanan requested that the Chairman be authorized to write a letter concerning the work schedule for installation of the water and sewer lines at the Industrial Park for use by Dilso Enterprises, in obtain- ing a building permit. Commissioner Clyde J. Rhyne moved that the Chairman be authorized to furnish such a letter. Commissioner Gordon A. Wicker seconded the motion and upon a vote it was Rnanimously adopted. Upon motion of Commissioner Gordon A. Wicker, which motion was duly seconded by Commissioner Clyde J. Rhyne, and which motion was unanimously adopted upon a vote, it was RESOLVED to grant a 45 day extension to Johnson Construction Company to seed water line construction areas. Commissioner Gordon A. Wicker moved the adoption of the following resolution concerning acceptance of a sub-grant for improvement to the Lee County jail: WHEREAS, the Board of Commissioners for Lee County have determined it to be in the best interest of the citizens of Lee County to make improvements to the Lee County Jail; and WHEREAS, Lee County has applied for a subgrant commitment to project 09-179-209-E001 in the amount of One Thousand Six Hundred Sixty-Three Dollars ($1, 6,b3. 00) to assist in making improvements to the Lee County Jail; and WHEREAS, the North Carolina Department of Crime Control and Public Safety has offered a grant in the amount of One Thousand Six Hundred Sixty-Three Dollars for Lee County's acceptance; NOW, THEREFORE, LET IT BE RESOLVED BY THE BOARD OF COMMISSIONERS OF LEE COUNTY: To accept the subgrant offer of One Thousand Six Hundred Sixty-Three Dollars and authorize the Chairman K. S. Harmon to sign the acceptance of the subgrant. Commissioner Clyde J. Rhyneseconded the motion and upon a vote it was unanimously adopted. Mr. Elwin J. Buchanan, Grants Director, asked that the Board make a budget amendment for the jail. Mr. Buchanan explained that the local funds approp- riated for the jail improvement project have gone back to the jail fund since they were not used during the last fiscal year and therefore, the Board needs to adopt this amendment to put the jail improvement appropriation back in the budget. After discussion, Commissioner Lila P. Nielsen moved that the budget be amended as follows: A. Increase Line Item #10-520-74, in the amount of $8, 950. 00; B. Increase Line Item #10-520-45, in the amount of $800. 00; i C. Increase the General Fund Revenue to reflect $9, 263. 00 from the Department of Crime Control and Public Safety, Line Item #10-350-00; and D. That $487. 00 be appropriated from the Emergency and Contin- gency Fund to the General Fund Revenue, Line Item #10-350-00.
