November 24, 2003 Page 303 <br /> <br /> There was discussion about the County's organizational structure, <br />including the role of the County Manager and the number of department heads <br />reporting to the County Manager and/or Deputy County Manager. The Board by <br />consensus agreed to leave the County's organizational structure as it <br />currently exists with the Manager and one Deputy Manager. Further, Board <br />members asked fo~ information comparing the County's organizational structure <br />wlth those of other counties of similar size to Cabarrus. <br /> <br />I~tt~ of Support <br /> <br /> UPON MOTION of Commissioner Carpenter, seconded by Commissioner <br />P=ivette and unanimously carried, the Board authorized the Chairman to sign <br />the following letter in support of the Cabarrus Coz~nunlty Health Center's <br />application to become a federally designated Con~nunlty Health Center. <br /> <br />Dear Dr. Dobson: <br /> <br />As the elected Chairman of the Cabarrus County Board of Co~ssloners, I <br />am pleased to write a letter in support of the Cabarrus Community Health <br />Center's application to become a federally designated Co~Lmlty Health <br />Center. <br /> <br />The needs of Cabarrus County in regard to health care access for the <br />uninsured and MecL%cald recipients continues to escalate due to the <br />bankruptcy of the Plllowtex Corporation and loss of 3cbs and health care <br />benefits for workers and their lam/lies. Our county has been very <br />proactive Ln developing collaborative partnerships to meet health needs <br />in the past, and continues to do so. <br /> <br />The application by the Cabarrus Comunlty Health has strong co~nunlty <br />support by health and human resource providers, the faith con~nunlty and <br />community leaders. Let me add my endorsement of ~s effort on behalf of <br />the Cabarrus County Board of Commissioners. <br /> <br />Sincerely, <br />/s/ Robert M. Freeman <br /> <br /> There being no further business to come before %he Board, Chairman <br />Freeman adjourned the meeting at 9:45 p.m. <br /> <br />Clerk to the Board <br /> <br /> <br />
