At 10:30 A.M., Chairman Lentz stated that this was the day and hour scheduled for a public hearing to determine if the County would participate financially in the paving improvements for Sheridan Drive and asked if anyone were present who wished to speak for or against these road improvements. Mrs. Carrie L. White, resident of Sheridan Drive, spoke in support of the paving improvements for the street. A member of the audience stated that he had submitted a petition for the paving of Seymour Lane and asked why that street had not been approved by the State for property owners participation. Mr. T. L. Patterson, District Engineer with the North Carolina Department of Transportation, explained that residents of both Seymour Lane and Artdale Drive had requested participation paving funds. However, he stated that each of these two streets were of such length that the State did not have enough money left in the 1984-85 property owners participation allocation to pave either street. He further explained that Sheridan Lane was a much shorter street and there was available money for the State's share of the paving cost. Mr. Patterson noted that Seymour Lane and Artdale Drive would have priority rating for property owners participation funds allocated for the next year. In conclusion, Mr. Patterson suggested that the Board consider the possibility of requesting the Secondary Roads Department to increase the percentage of funds set aside for property owners partici- pation in the Cabarrus County 1985-86 Secondary Construction Program. There being no one else to speak regarding the paving improvements for Sheridan Drive, the public hearing was closed. UPON MOTION of Commissioner Milloway, seconded by Commissioner Barnhardt and unanimously carried, the Board adopted the following resolution setting the second public hearing for Sheridan Drive at 7:30 P.M. on Monday, October 15, 1984.
