BOOK A ?dGE 15G funding formula to match services with current funding. The Sandhills Center will have a Crisis Plan in place by March 1, 2007, and is currently working on a local Business Plan for the upcoming year. The Board took no action on this matter. The Board considered revised six-mile fire districts for all volunteer fire departments. Fire Marshal Derrick Clouston told the Board that over the past three months his office has been working to complete the requirements of the North Carolina Office of State Fire Marshal (OSFM) to revise fire district from a five-mile district to a six-mile district. Mr. Clouston stated that in order to move forward with extending the boundaries of each fire district from a five-mile district to a six-mile district, the Commissioners must approve the revised maps. Once the maps are approved, OSFM will inspect each department to ensure they meet the minimum requirements for the new rating. The Fire Advisory Board and Fire Chief's Association have discussed this matter and are in support of the adoption of the six-mile districts. After some discussion, Commissioner Brown moved to approve the revised six-mile fire district map, a copy of which is attached to these minutes and by this reference made a part hereof. Upon a vote, the results were as follows: Aye: Adams, Brown, Hincks, Lemmond, Paschal, Reives, and Stevens Nay: None The Chairman ruled the motion had been adopted unanimously. Ms. Terry Johnson, Administrative Assistant III with Lee County General Services presented a report on all County owned vacant property. Ms. Johnson had divided the properties into three categories, which include the following: • (Table A) Properties close to or adjoining a building that is currently owned by Lee County making it ideal for possible future needs; • (Table B) Property that is currently under negotiation to sell; and • (Table C) Properties that are currently maintained by Lee County and recommended as surplus status County Attorney K. R. Hoyle stated all deeds would have to be checked to make sure property has been cleared for disposal and this would take several months to review. After some discussion, Commissioner Adams moved to declare properties listed in Table C, and are currently maintained by Lee County, surplus and begin the process to dispose of such. Upon a vote, the results were as follows: Aye: Adams, Brown, Hincks, Lemmond, Paschal, Reives, and Stevens Nay: None The Chairman ruled the motion had been adopted unanimously. 4
