Glenn Hawfield, Jr. Commissioners: Robert A. McClary John A. Hammett Marcelle Milloway Roger G. Hinson The invocation was by the Commissioner Hammett.

Chairman Hawfield reported that Bob Everette with Jackson Training School had called him and stated that 18 street signs were needed and that they would erect them if the County would make them. The Board felt the County should not construct the signs free of charge, since this would set a precedent for making signs for other private organizations. Chairman Hawfield reported that a company had been contracted to install a storm sewer at Cabarrus Memorial Hospital and that work should proceed shortly. Upon motion of Commissioner Hinson, seconded by Commissioner McClary and unanimously carried, to adopt the following resolution: WHEREAS, the Cabarrus County Commissioners desire to change the date of their regular monthly meeting to the first Thursday after the first Monday of each month; NOW, THEREFORE, BE IT RESOLVED that, under the provisions of the N. C. G. S. 153A-40, the regular meeting of the Board of Commissioners of Cabarrus County be held in the regular meeting room at the Courthouse in Concord on the first Thursday after the first Monday in each month at 9:00 A.M. beginning with the regular meeting for the month of August 1975. Dot Barbee requested that the County pay their share of her retirement from 1952 to 1956 during which time she was employed by the Clerk of Court. The retirement benefit was optional during this time and she had elected not to take it since she was not familiar with the benefits. After a discussion Commissioner McClary made a motion to table the matter and take it under advisement. Commissioner Hinson seconded the motion and vote carried. At 10:00 A.M., Chairman Hawfield announced that this was the time and place for a public hearing on the 1975/76 proposed budget. No one appeared. He then declared that the public hearing was closed. After a discussion of the budget and possible changes, Commissioner Hammett made motion to adopt the budget ordinance as presented by County Administrator, William R. Wade.
