<br />subdivision is connected to the Midland water line that was constructed
<br />through the use of an Economic Development Grant. As part of that grant, the
<br />North Carolina Commerce and Finance Center requires a reimbursement policy for
<br />any users connecting to the water line other than the intended industries.
<br />This would result in a $500.00 per lot connection fee for the subdivision.
<br />However, Mr. Humphrey objects to the fee due to his donation of the 23-acre
<br />parcel and contends he was not informed of the fee. Mr. Marshall reviewed the
<br />proposed actions to resolve the subdivision and water line fee issues. He
<br />pointed out that the proposal would have to be approved by the Board of
<br />Commissioners and the Water and Sewer Authority.
<br />
<br /> UPON MOTION of Chairman Fennel, seconded by Commissioner Freeman and
<br />unanimously carried, the Board approved the following action concerning the
<br />Rocky Meadows Subdivision as proposed by Mr. Marshall:
<br />
<br />3 o
<br />
<br />Randy Humphrey, Inc., complete the transfer of the 23-acre parcel to
<br />Cabarrus County.
<br />The Water and Sewer Authority of Cabarrus County (WSACC) transfers the
<br />escrow amount of $129,859.00 to Cabarrus County in exchange for the
<br />transfer of 13 acres to WSACC.
<br />Cabarrus County releases Randy Humphrey, Inc., from his obligated
<br />payment of $35,500.00 due to Cabarrus County and pays the State of North
<br />Carolina $35,500.00 for the State share of the connection fee.
<br />Cabarrus County retains $80,000.00 of the escrow amount (the expected
<br />cost of the 13 acres for WSACC) plus an amount equal to half of the
<br />connection fee paid to State ($17,750.00). Based on this the County
<br />will retain $97,750.00 of the escrow amount.
<br />Cabarrus County returns the remainder of the escrow amount to WSACC.
<br />The amount returned would therefore be $32,109.00.
