Small Clerk to the Board /s/ James W. Lentz Chairman The Board reviewed the letter from Mr. Robert Ewan, President of the Board of Directors of the Georgeville Volunteer Fire Department, asking for the Board's endorsement of the request to the Department of Transportation that the Dutch Buffalo Creek Bridge on Highway 200 be raised above flood level at the time it is replaced. According to the letter by Mr. Ewan, the bridge is impassable due to flooding several times a year and persons in that community are unable to receive fire protection or any type of emergency services due to lack of access to their property. UPON MOTION of Commissioner Hamby, seconded by Commissioner Payne and unanimously carried, the Board postponed, consideration of the Dutch Buffalo Creek Bridge request until the next meeting. The Board asked Mr. Michael Byrd, Transportation Planner, to provide information at the next Board meeting regarding the State's bridge replacement plans. At 8:00 P.M., Chairman Lentz stated that this was the day and hour scheduled for a public hearing regarding the road name change from Pruitt Road to Red Angus Drive and the naming of two unnamed roads to Jake Tucker Road and Thunderbolt Road and asked if anyone were present who wished to speak regarding these road name changes. No one spoke regarding these road name changes. UPON MOTION of Commissioner Upright, seconded by Commissioner Barnhardt and unanimously carried, the Board approved the road name change from Pruitt Road to Red Angus Drive and approved the naming of an unnamed road beginning at Flowes Store Road as Jake Tucker Road and the naming of an unnamed road beginning at Miami Church Road as Thunderbolt Road. UPON MOTION of Commissioner Hamby, seconded by Commissioner Barnhardt and unanimously carried, the Board moved to go into Executive Session for the purpose of consultation with legal counsel. UPON MOTION of Commissioner Hamby, seconded by Commissioner Payne and unanimously carried, the Board invited Mr. F. E. Isenhour, Jr., Zoning Administrator, to join the Board in Executive Session. UPON MOTION of Commissioner Hamby, seconded by Commissioner Barnhardt and unanimously carried, the Executive Session was terminated. Chairman Lentz reported that the Board had been in conference with Mr. Gray Wilson, attorney from Winston-Salem, and no determination had been made. He called a special meeting of the Board of Commissioners for 6:00 P.M. on Monday, October 28, 1985, in the Commissioners Meeting Room to discuss in Executive Session pending litigation. He asked that members of the Cabarrus County Planning Board, Mr. James F. Owens, Mr. F. E. Isenhour, Jr., and any former members of the Planning Board named in the suit by Martin Marietta Company be present for this meeting. Ms. Thelma Freeze, Executive Director of the L.I.F.E. Center, Inc., reviewed the program of Adult Day Care Services provided by the Center. Stating that the Center had suffered cutbacks in funding for the fiscal year, Ms. Freeze requested that the Board appropriate $3,640.00 as a match for a donation by an anonymous donor which is contingent on the Center's receipt of at least the same amount. Commissioner Barnhardt, commissioner member of the Social Services Board, reported there was a possibility that additional State funding for Adult Day Care Services would be received by the Department of Social Services in the near future.
