At the request of Vice Chairman Juba, Richard M. Koch, County Attorney, provided a lengthy dissertation on the purpose of House Hill 1002 and Senate Hill 545 and the condemnation process. In summary, he said the essence of the bills requested by the City of Concord is to allow other local governments to use Chapter 136 of the N.C. General Statutes to condemn property for public uses such as utilities (water and sewer) and streets; and that the "quick take" provisions of Chapter 90-A have been in place since 1982. After reading an excerpt from Chapter 90-A, a lengthy discussion ensued and Mr. Koch responded to a variety of questions from the Board throughout the discussion, Commissioner Privette made a MOTION to remove Cabarrus County from the Quick Take Bill.
