Page 2 <br />Resolution <br />14arch 17, <br /> <br /> 3. The thresholds for requiring architectural services for the construction <br />and repair of public buildings should be increased. -- Currently, )torth Carolina <br />General Statutes 133-1.1 and 143-135 require design by architect for relatively <br />small projects which a large contractor can competently construct. The taxpayer <br />should not bear the unnecessary cost of employing an architect and the increased <br />contractor cost which usually results. <br /> <br /> AND BE IT FURTHER RESOLVED BY THE COUNTY cO~IsS)ONERS OF BURKE COUNTYj~ <br />that traditional sources of local government revenue should not be disturbed. <br />Counties and cities perform essential services. The cost of these services, <br />many of which are mandated, is constantly increasing as are the number of services <br />mandated. To reduce state reimbursements or other county sources of revenue <br />in such circumstances is to raise local taxes by action of' the legislature. <br />We, therefore, urge the North Carolina General Assembly and the )~orth Carolina <br />Association of County Commissioners to wholeheartedly support the integrity of <br />local revenue sources. <br /> <br /> AND BE IT FURTHER RESOLVED BY THE COUNTY COI~MISSIONERS OF BURKE COUNTY, <br />that a copy of this resolution be forwarOed to each member of Burke County's <br />legislative delegation, to the North Carolina Association of County Commissioners <br />and to each County Board of Commissioners in North Carolina. <br /> <br />This the 17th day of March, ]992. <br /> <br />Al-FEST: <br /> <br />Ronnie Thompson, Chairman <br />Burke County Board of Co~issioners <br /> <br />Frances McKinney, <br />Burke County Board of Co~issioners <br /> <br /> <br />
