O. Box 707 <br />Concord, NC 28026 <br /> <br />Dear Frank: <br /> <br />The Cabarrus County Board of Education voted last evening to voluntarily annex the new Concord <br />Middle School and the new W. M. Irvin Elementary School (formerly called Eastside Elementary <br />School) into the City of Concord. <br /> <br />This annexation will permit the school system to save approximately fifty percent (50%) in fire <br />insurance premiums. The city has also indicated that they will pay the monthly lighting fee for the <br />street lights. A partnership with the City and County Parks and Recreation Departments will provide <br />significant funding for the athletic fields at this site. <br /> <br />Mr. David Williams with Hartsell, Hartsell and White has advised that Cabarrus County is the <br />current owner of the property identified above pursuant to the economic incentive a~eement <br />executed last summer. Mr. Williams now instructs that the County Commissioners will need to <br />approve the proposed annexation in Open Session and join in on the annexation application to be <br />made to the City. If possible, please place this on the agenda for the Commissioners' Meeting on <br />April 19, 1999. <br /> <br />Thank you for your support of Cabarrus County Schools. <br /> <br />Sincerely, <br /> <br />Dr. Harold Winkler <br />Superintendent. <br /> <br />HW:jmt <br /> <br />pc' <br /> <br />Cabarrus County Board of Education <br />Mr. Don Clickner <br /> <br />An Equat <br />Opportunity Employer <br /> <br /> <br />
