Proiect Safe Neighborhoods (PSN) Update
PSN Coordinator Rodney Trogdon, District Attorney Andy Gregson, US Attorney Matt Martin,
and Special Assistant US Attorney Marianne Courtney were present. DA Gregson said During
the COVID-19 shutdown, Project Safe Neighborhoods has continued on. Attorney Martin has
worked on over 35 cases during this time. There has been great communication between law
enforcement agencies and community partners. Dangerous individuals have been identified and
due to this communication, these individuals can be tracked by law enforcement.
Attorney Martin said there is no higher calling for the government than public safety. The year
2020 was a challenging year for law enforcement. Randolph County has continued working to
coordinate the PSN program through these challenges. There is an upcoming "call-in" event; this
event epitomizes what PSN is all about. The event involves criminals and makes them aware of
the severe repercussions awaiting any crimes committed. Helpful resources are also offered to
2/1/2021
offenders. When the federal government comes in and sentences offenders to the harshest
punishment, other criminals find out so it creates a ripple effect in the community.
Mr. Trogdon said that PSN has certainly moved forward while respecting pandemic initiatives.
The first notification was one year ago. Seven of the original fourteen offenders have completed
probation successfully. Two have absconded supervision. Two have significant charges; one is
in jail and one is awaiting trial. Eight have no pending charges (57%). PSN deals with the worst
of the worst offenders. Crime is not going to stop, but neither is PSN. Often, the same people are
repeatedly involved in offenses. The next notification is tentatively set for March 25. Fifteen
individuals who fit the program's criteria have been identified.
Chairman Frye asked how much publicity or knowledge is shared in the county regarding PSN.
Mr. Trogdon said that pre-COVID, information was being shared in the community. Due to the
pandemic, that information exchange has slowed. It's possible that at the next notification,
attendance will be "need" based. Often, the punishments are enough to initiate a change in the
offender's life.
Chairman Frye asked if PSN was a condition of parole. Mr. Trogdon said yes, often.
Commissioner Haywood asked if it was correct that 35 cases from Randolph County faced
federal charges due to the communication between county and state agencies. Mr. Trogdon said
yes.
Commissioner Kidd asked who community agencies can contact in order to get involved. Mr.
Trogdon stated he is the point of contact. There are twelve agencies involved currently.
Voluntary A2 District (VAD) Annual Report
Cooperative Extension Director Kenny Sherin said in 2020, the Voluntary Agricultural District
Board admitted farms into the program totaling 283 acres of land. As a result, Randolph County
now has over 25,948 acres of land enrolled in the program. Of this, 33 parcels are enrolled in the
Enhanced Voluntary Agriculture District with 1903.92 acres and 513 parcels with 24,043 acres
enrolled in the Regular Voluntary Agriculture District.
Mr. Sherin introduced Annie Mills, the new Horticulture Agent for Randolph County. She
works with landscaping businesses, nurseries, and more. She works with local foods projects and
the Master Gardener certification course. She is currently recruiting growers to use the Visit NC
Farms application (app).
The year 2020 was challenging for everyone. The initial food supply chain interruption due to
the pandemic increased the awareness of farm producers to sell food directly to consumers.
Expanding support for direct to consumer operations in the county increased food resiliency for
county residents. N.C. Cooperative Extension and Randolph County have supported local growers
by bringing the Visit NC Farms app to Randolph County. The app helps people connect to local
food growers as a source for supplying their food needs.
2/1/2021
Mr. Sherin thanked the Commissioners for their continued support and for the signs provided
for the program. He also thanked the volunteer Board of Directors of the Voluntary Agricultural
District for their continued work and commitment. This has been a popular program with the
farmers in the county. He acknowledged the Board for recognizing the value of agriculture and
agribusiness in Randolph County.
Chairman Frye asked the difference between enhanced and regular districts. Mr. Sherin said
the enhanced districts have time commitments attached to participate in the program. It is not as
popular or visible as the regular program. Commissioner Allen added that the enhanced program
is a commitment on behalf of the landowner for a ten-year period.
Commissioner Allen asked if the 283 acres included December numbers and Mr. Sherin
answered yes.
Child Fatality Prevention/Community Child Protection Team Annual Report
Public Health Director Susan Hayes and Social Services Director Tracie Murphy gave the
annual update for Child Fatality Prevention/Community Child Protection Team.
Chairman Frye asked what ages these programs deal with. Ms. Hayes said ages 0 to 18 years.
The Team meets to identify gaps in care and living conditions for children. The Team reviewed
child deaths from calendar year 2019. The Team met three times during calendar year 2020.
Notification was received in October 2020 that the 2019 fourth quarter child fatality reviews would
be delayed. The fourth quarter 2019 Child Fatality Reviews were received in January 2021. The
CFPT met on January 12, 2021 to review the 2019 fourth quarter child fatalities.
There were 25 child deaths reviewed from the previous year (2019).
Causes of death were
• Perinatal Conditions 5
• Neonatal Conditions 0
• Extreme Prematurity 0
• Congenital -Birth Defects 3
• Illnesses (such as viral infections, cancer, etc.) 3
• Accidental (asphyxiation, unspecified threat to breathing,
motor vehicle accidents) 7
• Other ill-defined and unspecified causes, includes unsafe
sleep environment 7
Total 25
Chairman Frye asked if COVID-19 deaths were included. Ms. Hayes said no, but those
numbers would fall under "Illnesses" in 2020 data.
The purpose of the Child Fatality Prevention Team is to review the deaths of all Randolph
County children. The review is to determine if system problems exist that contributed in any way
to the delay of or lack of services that might have prevented the death. If gaps exist, the team
2/1/2021
works to improve/add services that will prevent problems for families in the future. No gaps were
identified. The Team made the following recommendations:
The Team requested education on Child Fatalities caused by Accidents. North
Carolina State Trooper Brandon Baker presented information about deaths from car
accidents, including the percentage of those unbuckled who died. He also provided
information on "VIP" training for high school students.
The Team planned to request Safe Kids make a presentation on Car Seat Safety, "Hot
Cars," and availability of car seats for Randolph County children. However, due to
the pandemic, this goal was not met and will be continued for 2021 since 7 out of 25
reviewed deaths were caused by accidents.
The Team will continue to address unsafe sleep conditions by making Pack'n Play
portable cribs available along with safe sleep education through the Books for Babies
Program in partnership with the Randolph Partnership for Children and Randolph
Health.
Commissioner Haywood said that she looked at the 2018 report and there were only 18
fatalities; that number has increased to 25. In 2018, only 2 were the result of car accidents. In
2019 that jumped to 7. There were no unsafe sleep deaths in 2018 but that number increased to 7
in 2019. She commended Ms. Hayes for her work in educating the community.
Ms. Murphy said the words "partnership" and "prevention" have been mentioned many times
and those words excite her because they make the lives of children in our community better. The
Child Fatality Prevention Team and the Community Child Protection Team work in tandem. The
Community Child Protection Team (COPT) met 5 times during this year (January 1, 2010—
December 31, 2020). The Team reviewed 10 current cases of children under the protection of
Social Services.
Areas of concern were:
Substance Abuse
2
Adult Mental Health Issues
3
Adolescent Mental Health Issues
3
Physical Abuse
1
Sex Abuse
1
The purpose of the Community Child Protection Team (COPT) is to identify systemic
deficiencies in child welfare services or resources. Once identified, teams develop strategies to
address the gaps in the child welfare system within the county. The CCPT reviewed cases during
the past year (January 2020 -December 2020). The following gaps and recommendations were
identified:
• Limited substance abuse treatment centers: CCPT recommended utilizing neighboring
counties.
• Limited mental health services for low income families: CCPT recommended looking into
more intensive in-home preservation.
2/1/2021
• Increase public awareness about conditions that impact child protection within the
community: CCPT recommended continuous community education with law enforcement,
school system, daycare centers, all medical professionals, mental health facilities and
churches.
To increase awareness and open communication between DSS and community partners, DSS
actively participates in the Randolph County Sheriff's Office monthly In Service Training. The
Team participates in Asheboro Police Department's In Service Training as well. To continue open
and clear communication between DSS and 911, DSS continues to provide 911 Communications
with the contact information for the on-call Child Protective Services Supervisor. DSS keeps the
Randolph County and Asheboro City Schools educated on any new policies and procedures. DSS,
all Local Law Enforcement Agencies, and the District Attorney's office met three times to
collaborate on abuse cases so that these can be pursued, evaluated, investigated, and prosecuted
accordingly.
Commissioner McDowell said that Randolph County is extremely fortunate to have Ms. Hayes
and Ms. Murphy because they are passionate about their work and partnering with the community.
Chairman Frye said that these agencies see the worst of the worst and they are assets to the
County.
Street Closure Public Hearing
Associate County Aimee Scotton said she received a request to close an unnamed unbuilt street.
The request was submitted by Larry McElreath. The property on one side of the unnamed street
is owned by Ruth McElreath, Mr. McElreath's mother. The street was depicted on a plat recorded
in 1953, but it was never built.
The procedure for closing a public road or easement is governed by North Carolina General
Statute §153A-241. The first step requires that the Board of Commissioners adopt a resolution
declaring its intent to close the street and calling for a public hearing on the question. You adopted
this resolution at your regular meeting last month. In accordance with the statute, notice of the
public hearing was published once a week for three successive weeks. The statute further requires
that a copy of the resolution must be sent by registered certified mail to each owner of property
adjoining the street, as shown by the county tax records, who did not join in the request to have
the street closed. A copy of the resolution was mailed to Ruth McElreath, who owns the
unimproved property on one side of the unbuilt street and to Omayra Robles and Alvis Hernan
Adames, who own the improved property on the other side of the unbuilt street. Furthermore, a
notice of the closing and the public hearing was posted in at least two places along the portion of
the street requested to be closed as prescribed by the statute.
The Public Hearing is to be held at this meeting. After all interested persons are allowed to
voice their views, if the Board of Commissioners is satisfied that closing this street will not be
detrimental to public interest and will not deprive any individual of access to his property, the
Board may adopt the attached order closing the street. A certified copy of this order shall then be
filed with the Register of Deeds office.
2/1/2021
Chairman Frye opened the Public Hearing at 7:09 p.m. and closed it after everyone wishing to
speak had done so.
Larry McElreath, 12900 Moores Chapel Road, Charlotte, said that he is interested in moving
back to Randolph County which is why he's pursuing closing this road. It is adjacent to the
property he is interested in.
On motion of Haywood, seconded by Allen, the Board voted unanimously to adopt the Order
Permanently Closing an Unnamed Street, as follows:
ORDER PERMANENTLY CLOSING AN UNNAMED STREET
WHEREAS, the Randolph County Board of Commissioners received a request to
permanently close the following unnamed unbuilt street:
That unnamed street running between the parcel identified by parcel
identification number 7740878113 (lots 14, 15, and 16 of Sunset Hills) and
the parcel identified by parcel identification number 7740970114 (lots 17-
24 of Sunset Hills) as shown on the "Survey for Larry McElreath " recorded
at Plat Book 166, Page 16, Randolph County Registry. See Attachment A
for highlighted map depicting the street to be closed following these
minutes.
WHEREAS, on January 4, 2021, the Randolph County Board of Commissioners
adopted a resolution declaring its intent to close said street or easement and set a
public hearing on the issue for February 1, 2021, all in accordance with North
Carolina General Statute §153A-241; and
WHEREAS, notices of the proposed closing and hearing were prominently posted in
two places along the street proposed to be closed; and
WHEREAS, notice of the public hearing set by the Randolph County Board of
Commissioners for February 1, 2021 was published once a week for three successive
weeks before the hearing; and
WHEREAS, a copy of the resolution was sent by registered or certified mail to each
owner as shown on the county tax records ofproperty adjoining the street who did not
join in the request to have the street closed; and
WHEREAS, the Randolph County Board of Commissioners has determined through
the public hearing that the closing ofthe aforementioned unnamed street is not contrary
to the public interest and that no individual owning property in the vicinity ofsaid street
would be deprived of reasonable means of ingress and egress to his or her property.
NOW, THEREFORE, BE IT ORDERED by the Randolph County Board of
Commissioners that the above -referenced unnamed street be permanently closed and
that all right, title, and interest in its respective rights-of-way is vested in those persons
owning lots or parcels adjacent to that section of the road or easement.

2/1/2021
Finance Officer Will Massie said federal and state laws require a local government's annual
audit to encompass testing of both financial statements and legal compliance, thus making it a
specialized service. The County has historically maintained a lasting relationship with its
independent audit firm, resulting in better service and a more efficient audit.
Cherry Bekaert LLP has served as the County's independent auditors since 2005. The County
has been pleased with the level of service provided. The proposed base audit fee for the 2021
fiscal year is $62,450, which includes the audit of the Tourism Development Authority. This is a
2.9% increase. Due to changes for a federal and state Single Audit, there are contingent fees if
they must audit more than four major programs ($3,100 for each additional program). He said he
has compared this fee with other counties of similar size and considers it reasonable.
Mr. Massie recommended that the Board of Commissioners authorize the Chairman to sign the
contract with Cherry Bekaert LLP for the audit of the fiscal year ending June 30, 2021.
On motion of McDowell, seconded by Allen, the Board voted unanimously to approve the audit
contract with Cherry Bekaert LLP in the amount of $62,450 for the fiscal year ending June 30,
2021.
Capital Improvement Plan Update
Finance Officer Will Massie said a multi-year capital project fund has already been established
to account for anticipated Detention Center project costs, separate from the General Fund.
The financing for Phase I of this project occurred successfully on October 9, 2019. Atthe April
2020 Board meeting, the Commissioners authorized the addition of $8,649,485 to the Guaranteed
Maximum Price for Phases 11— V.
To save money, part of the initial project cutbacks included elimination of the roofing and
HVAC replacement for the existing jail. The CMAR has negotiated prices to add these critical
needs to the renovation project.
The actual debt financing for the project will occur in April 2021.
To update the budget for the Detention Center Project, Mr. Massie asked the Board to approve
the project amendment.
Commissioner Allen said that it was the original roof and HVAC system being replaced.
Chairman Frye said that the renovations to the jail were necessary.
On motion of Allen, seconded by Haywood, the Board voted unanimously to approve the
Detention Center Project Amendment 98, as follows:
Randolph County Detention Center Capital Project Fund
Amendment # 8
Revenues Increase Decrease
Proceeds_from debt $890,000
2/1/2021
Appropriations Increase Decrease
Construction $890,000
Mr. Massie then asked the Board to schedule a Public Hearing for the March 1, 2021 meeting
to consider the use of Limited Obligation Bonds (LOBS) to finance the Asheboro High School and
Detention Center Renovation Projects.
On motion of Kidd, seconded by Allen, the Board voted unanimously to set a Public Hearing
for March 1, 2021 at a meeting starting at 6:00 p.m. on the use of Limited Obligation Bonds
(LOBS) to finance the Asheboro High School and Detention Center Renovation Projects.
County Manager's Update
County Manager Hal Johnson reminded the Board that there is a Planning Appeal on February
81h and the Annual Retreat is February 25th. Clerk to the Board Dana Crisco reminded the Board
that there is a joint meeting with the Asheboro City School Board on February 1 lth.
Commissioner Updates
Chairman Frye said he recently participated in the NCACC legislative goals conference.
Commissioner Haywood said there have been a lot of complaints about the difficulty in getting
a COVID-19 vaccination appointment. The County is investigating all possible avenues of
appointment taking. Other counties are experiencing issues as well. There was a meeting between
Public Health and Randolph Health to look at an online system for a waiting list. However, citizens
may not get called for six weeks or more because supply of the vaccine is very limited in
comparison with demand. The NCDHHS approved the suggested system since it parallels the
CVMS system in use by the State. This program would streamline the administrative side of
appointments; everyone would work from the same list. For this week, call-in appointments will
continue. The State has said that the County will receive the same quantity of doses for the next
three weeks. Appointments will be made once vaccines are in hand. Providers in Randolph
County are working together to meet the needs of citizens as quickly and effectively as possible.
Commissioner Kidd asked when citizens can call for an appointment. Commissioner Haywood
said that it will be several days before the vaccines arrive. Ms. Hayes said Public Health filled 700
appointments last week in less than 9 hours. She expects 600 doses this week. When Public Health
is notified on Thursday of the vaccine arrival, the appointment lines will be opened on Friday.
Ms. Hayes said Information Technology is working with Public Health to launch the online
signup system. Public Health had to call over 2,000 people back after the phone lines crashed on
the first appointment signup day and they found it to be very labor intensive.
Ms. Hayes stated that vaccine clinics reach over 500 people a day. On the first day of the Zoo
clinic, over 900 people were vaccinated. She commended her staff for their outstanding job in
managing the vaccines, appointments, and the process.
Chairman Frye asked if the 600 vaccines were first doses. Ms. Hayes said yes; second dose
quantities are mirrored.
2/1/2021
Commissioner McDowell asked if there is a time limit on viability and does that intensify the
problem. Ms. Hayes said that it compounds the problem. The vaccines must be frozen at very
cold temperatures then thawed at room temperature for a certain amount of time. Once it's drawn
up from the vial, it must be used immediately. She commended nurse Lynsay Saunders for her
incredible dedication to her work in running the vaccination clinics and her valuable contributions
to Public Health.
Chairman Frye asked if there were more doses in a vial at times. Ms. Hayes said anytime there
is an extra dose in the vial, it will be used. She commended Ms. Tara Aker for her assistance to
Ms. Saunders with tracking vaccines.
Commissioner Haywood relayed a story about her late husband, Stan. It upset him when people
were rude, unkind, or ungrateful. She said someone came into Prevo Drug where Mr. Haywood
worked and was so rude to the pharmacist that Mr. Haywood refused to fill the prescription. Ms.
Haywood told this story to remind citizens who are frustrated to be kind and patient to the staff
working to get people vaccinated.
Closed Session
At 7: 38 p.m., on motion ofAllen, seconded by Haywood, the Board voted unanimously to enter
into closed session pursuant to NCGS 143-318.11(a)(4) to discuss matters relating to the location
or expansion of industries or other businesses in the area served by the public body, including
agreement on a tentative list of economic development incentives that may be offered by the public
body in negotiations and for the purpose of discussing competitive health care activities by or on
behalf of Randolph Health, which discussion is privileged and confidential pursuant to North
Carolina General Statutes Section 131E-97.3, as is permitted by North Carolina General Statutes
Section 143-318.11(a)(1).
Regular Session Resumed
At 8:40 p.m., the Board returned to regular session.
Public Hearing Set
On motion of McDowell, seconded by Kidd, the Board voted unanimously to set a Public
Hearing on March 1, 2021, at a meeting starting at 6:00 p.m., for an economic development
project.
Adjournment
At 8:41 p.m. on motion of McDowell, seconded by Allen, the Board voted unanimously to
