-- ~"Kids C~n Succeed"~ P. O. Box 1268 100 Denver Street KANNAPOLIS. NORTH CAROLINA 28082-1268 (704) 938-1131 · FAX (704) 938-1137 Edward B. Tyson Superintendent Ernest M. Macon Assistant Superimendent Jo Anne A. Byerl¥ Assistant Superintendent January 5, 1996 Mr. Jeffrey L. Bamhardt Chairman Cabarrus County Commissioners P. O. Box 707 Concord, N.C. 28026-0707 Dear Mr. Barnhardt: As required by the North Carolina General Assembly, Kannapolis City Schools has completed a Ten-Year School Capital Construction Needs Assessment Survey. It is our understanding that the General Assembly will use this infom~afion in determining how the state can assist public school systems with their building needs. The survey instrument enclosed is the form the state determined we should use. You will also find enclosed information on Kannapolis City Schools letterhead which will be helpful to you as you review the report. Finally, there is a form for you to sign which indicates that the Cabarrus County Commissioners approve or do not approve this survey for submission to the state. It is our understanding that your approval of our submission of the survey in no way obligates the commissioners to the projects or COSTS of the projects contained in the survey. We had hoped to have thc survey to you for action at your January 2 meeting, but as you know that meeting was postponed until Jant]_ary 16. The state has asked that we submit the survey before January 15. Of course, that is not possible, but we do need to submit it after your January 16 meeting. For that reason, we are sending you the information at least one week prior to your January 16 meeting. Please do not hesitate to contact us if we can provide any additional information prior to your meeting. In many cases, we feel that the State's estimated costs are high and that we could do the projects for less cost. Therefore, we think the total amount for our ten-year building needs would be less than the state projections. However, please remember that your approval of submission of the survey carries no obligation for funding on the part of the commissioners. Thank you for your assistance. Sincerely yours, Edward B. Tyson, Ed.D. Superintendent C: Kannapolis City Schools Board of Education Members "We are an Equal Opportunity Employer"
