McGinnis <br /> FROM: Blair Bennett ~ <br /> DATE: November ?, 1986 <br /> SUBJECT: State Grant for Piedmont Farmers' Market <br /> <br /> Relative to Board action in the October 20, 1986 meeting, <br /> the Commissioners authorized the return of a check to the <br /> State for $35,000 which was designoted for the Piedmont <br /> Farmers' Market. The Commissioners declined acceptance of <br /> this check because of State restrictions whi.ch make the . . <br /> <br /> County r. esponsibl, e. for the-expendit-ures of these funds. .The <br /> Commissioners asked that the check be recur directly to the <br /> <br /> Piedmont Farmers' Market,-. Since that time I have been <br /> <br /> advised by the State that it would have to get legislative <br /> authority to recur the check grid that it could be as late as <br /> February 1987 before that is approved. Considering the time <br /> involved and after conversations with Chairman £entz, I am <br /> recommending that we ask the State to return the check to <br /> the County and request that the Piedmont Farmers' Market <br /> assure us by letter that the funds ore going to be used for <br /> the purchase of land as they have indicated. Thi~ would <br /> assure the County that the funds were used f6r · public <br /> purpose and meet the audit requirements needed. <br /> <br /> ce <br /> <br /> <br />
