S. 122-35.53(c). He stated that the authority to own property would basically apply to the ownership of group homes.

Mr. William E. Fisher, owner of J & F Disposal Company, Inc., and Mr. Hubert E. Hoglen, Jr., owner of Royal Garbage Service, were again present regarding their request for a rate increase for garbage collection. As the Board had rejected the establishment of a tipping fee for the County Landfill at the meeting on March 21, 1984, Messrs. Fisher and Hoglen requested a $1.00 per month increase for regular operating expenses. UPON MOTION of Commissioner Barnhardt, seconded by Commissioner Nash with Commissioners Barnhardt, Nash, and Milloway and Chairman Lentz voting for and Commissioner Payne voting against, the Board moved to allow the franchised garbage collectors to increase rates by fifty cents (50¢) per month for residential refuse collection in Cabarrus County effective July 1, 1984. This constitutes a rate of $6.50 per month for roadside service and $7.50 per month for rear yard service. Mr. Thomas B. Robinson, Planning Director, reviewed the progress of the Planning staff in the elimination of duplicate street names in the county. He reported that the effort to secure voluntary agreement on road name changes from affected property owners had been unsuccessful.

He requested direction from the Board regarding the continuation of work to eliminate the duplicate street names or the removal of this project from the Planning Department's work list.
