CABARRUS COUNTY <br />BOARD OF COMMISSIONERS <br />REGULAR MEETING <br />1� <br />p TBcA�a 11i DECEMBER 19 <br />��fiiffJfl /�� <br />6: 30 P .M. <br />AGENDA CATEGORY: <br />Consent Agenda <br />SUBJECT: <br />Finance - Budget Revision to Update Estimated Cost for the Cruse Meats <br />Project and Update the Overall Budget for the Incubator Farm - $82,772 <br />BRIEF SUMMARY: <br />A detailed evaluation of the Cruse Meats project and the established budget <br />has taken place. Several budget items need to be adjusted for various <br />reasons as summarized below. A revenue was budgeted for the acceptance <br />of a $20,000 donation from Cruse Meats which will not take place. In <br />exchange for this contribution, the Cruse's are purchasing various pieces of <br />equipment for the facility that would have been purchased through the state <br />grant. In evaluating the contract, no contingency funds were set aside in case <br />changes occurred during the construction of the facility. Since this is not a <br />typical brick and mortar facility, several changes have been made since the <br />contract was signed that are necessary for a facility of this type. The funding <br />established for the well water and waste water system construction needs to <br />be increased by $75,000 in order to fund the total cost of both these water <br />system into the new facility and existing the facility. Their location to facility <br />are essential based on surrounding property lines and the transportation of <br />the livestock to the facility for harvesting. Staff will be available for any <br />questions that may arise related to these issues. <br />REQUESTED ACTION: <br />Motion to adopt budget amendment. <br />EXPECTED LENGTH OF PRESENTATION: <br />SUBMITTED BY: <br />Pamela S.
