<br /> The Board of Commissioners for the County of Cabarrus met in recessed

<br />Center in Concord, North Carolina on Tuesday, August 16, 1994, at 6:30 P.M.
<br />
<br />Present
<br />
<br />Chairman: Jeffrey L. Barnhart
<br />Vice-Chairman: Carolyn B. Carpenter
<br />Commissioners: Sue B. Casper
<br /> Arne L. Fennel
<br /> Kenneth F. Payne
<br />
<br /> Also present were Mr. John V. Witherspoon, County Manager; Mr. Fletcher L.
<br />Hartsell, Jr., County Attorney; and Mrs. Frankie F. Bonds, Clerk to the Board.
<br />
<br />Chairman Barnhart called the meeting to order at 6:30 P.M.
<br />
<br />Request to Renew Transportation Contract with CTS/Mayflower - Mr. Mike Byrd
<br />
<br /> Mr. Mike Byrd, Transportation Planner, requested that the transportation
<br />contract with CTS/Mayflower be extended until December 31, 1994, with an option
<br />to extend the contract from that date for one year. He stated this would allow
<br />the contract to be renewed on a calendar year basis, not September 1 of each
<br />year. During FY 1993-94 the vans operated 253 days, made 53,387 one-way trips,
<br />and drove a total of 281,934 miles. The total cost for County agencies using the
<br />services was $261,678.14, including required County funding of $41,552.40, or
<br />14.7 percent of the total amount expended.
<br />
<br /> In response to questions by Commissioners Carpenter and Casper, Mr. Alan
<br />Melvin, Area Manager for CTS/Mayflower, reported that local management problems
<br />had been resolved and all vendors had been paid. He further stated that the
<br />company would provide transportation for dialysis patients on Saturdays and
<br />holidays as long as the clients do not require any type of escalated medical
<br />care. There was brief discussion regarding the County's liability and the lease
<br />of the vans to CTS/Mayflower. Mr. Byrd reported that there had been two
<br />accidents since the company began the transportation service in 1991. However,
<br />company employees were not responsible for either accident.
<br />
<br /> UPON MOTION of Chairman Barnhart, seconded by Commissioner Fennel and
<br />unanimously carried, the Board approved the following extension of the contract
<br />with CTS/Mayflower until December 31, 1994.
