<br /> Mr. Gary Garlow, President of Talbert, Cox & Associates, Inc., presented
<br />a comparison of construction costs as listed below for the proposed Cabarrus
<br />County Airport. He reviewed the layout for the Poplar Tent site and recommended
<br />the rotation of the runway to decrease the cost of earthwork and to reduce the
<br />number of homes involved in the project. During discussion of the Coddle Creek
<br />site, Mr. Garlow noted that there would be a conflict between the airport and
<br />the reservoir at that location. In conclusion, Mr. Garlow informed the Board
<br />that the State of North Carolina had been selected as a demonstration site to
<br />administer the federal funding for general aviation airports in the state. This
<br />new program is to be effective October 1, 1989.

<br /> UPON MOTION of Commissioner Hamby, seconded by Commissioner Melvin with
<br />Commissioners Hamby, Melvin, and Moss and Chairman Lentz voting for and
<br />Commissioner Simmons voting against, the Board agreed to stay with the Poplar
<br />Tent site and authorized the rotation of the runway on the site (north end of
<br />the runway to the west by approximately seven degrees). The Board further
<br />requested the Federal Aviation Administration to proceed with processing the
<br />Environmental Assessment for the proposed airport with Talbert, Cox &
<br />Associates, Inc. to provide any updates to the Environmental Assessment that
<br />may be required due to the rotation of the runway.
<br /> Commissioner Simmons requested information relative to the tax values of
<br />land for the two Poplar Tent sites.
<br /> Ms. Karen Iorio of 8091 Altacrest Drive informed the Board that an
<br />appraisal by Mr. Pleas Carter had shown that the proposed airport at the Poplar
<br />Tent site had devalued her home by $7,100.00. She asked that the County pay her
<br />the $7,100.00 for the devaluation of her home.
<br /> Mr. Fletcher L. Hartsell, Jr., County Attorney, advised the Board that in
<br />his opinion it was not possible at this time to ascertain if any devaluation of
<br />the Iorio property had taken place due to the many variables involved in the
<br />airport project. The Board took no action on Ms. Iorio's request.
