Public Comment Period
Pursuant to N.C.G.S. § 153A-52.1, Chairman Frye opened the floor for public comment and
closed it after everyone wished to speak.
Jo Burgess, 121 White County Rd., Ramseur, said children are precious and need to be cared
for. She is in favor of the Sanctuary for Life Resolution.
Linda Daves, 964 Chamberlin Dr., Asheboro, asked the Board to pass the Sanctuary for Life
Resolution without any changes. She spoke of all lives mattering. Some people cannot speak
on their own behalf.
Cameron Bass, 1035 Viewmont Dr., Asheboro, is a third grader. She read some passages
referring to African American children in the 1800s being sold into slavery.
Joyce Bass, 1035 Viewmont Dr., Asheboro, said her daughter had read about children being
taken away from their homes and parents and sold. She wants the statue removed.
Dr. Chuck Egerton, 642 Parkview Dr., Asheboro, spoke about his thought on the statue. He
walked by the statue and heard childrens’ voices calling to remove the statue. The children being
sold had no sanctuary. He asked for the statue to be taken down.
Dwain Roberts, 4654 Rainbow Trl., Asheboro, has lived here all his life. He read a poem
that is used at Sons of the Confederacy memorial services. The statue does not represent white
supremacy. It is a memorial to Southern soldiers. He said the statue is in a museum that is open
24 hours per day.
Susie Scott, 516 W. Kivett St., Asheboro, spoke about the Resolution for a Sanctuary of Life.
She asked the Board to consider this carefully. She said that some pregnancies become
12/9/21
dangerous to pregnant women. The pregnant woman should have a choice on what to do with
her body.
Tim Saunders, 1402 E. Allred St., Asheboro, asked the Board to go slowly on the Resolution
for a Sanctuary for Life. He said a woman’s pregnancy should be between her, her family, and
her doctor.
Alan Lamb, 3292 Shady Forest Rd., Randleman, spoke about how lies get told so much that
people begin to believe it. The war declared on the Confederacy was not about slavery. The
monument is for the soldiers who went to war and didn’t return.
Dean Brown, 460 Wood Mint Rd., Asheboro, said the statue was erected for the men who
lost their lives in the war. He believes we should not have to compromise and surrender one
thing unless we are willing to surrender everything.
Shaune Staley, 455 Weatherly St., Ramseur, was asked to speak by the National Association
for the Advancement of Colored People (NAACP). She spoke of history and its evolution. Years
ago, the statue fell in a storm and was found to be rusted underneath. It became named Hugo
after the storm that caused it to fall. Confederate monuments were made to keep the legacy of
slavery alive.
Boyd Byerly, 275 Hancock Rd., Seagrove, said that history should stay in front of us so that
we do not repeat the negative acts of the past. He read part of a speech given by Dr. Martin
Luther King, Jr. Honor all of our brothers and sisters with a monument.
Bobby Allen, 3861 Osburn Mill Rd., Asheboro, commended the Board and the staff on the
Megasite. He said money is coming for an agricultural center. He hopes that the Board will also
appropriate funds to make it happen.

Sanctuary for Life
Pastor Mark Welborn spoke about the Sanctuary for Life Resolution and his support for it. He
asked the supporters to stand. He mentioned classes being held at a local church on adopting and
fostering children.
Commissioner Haywood said valuing all lives starts here. We cannot say that we value one
over another. This extends to all aspects of life.
Commissioner McDowell spoke of his affiliation with Your Choices Randolph and his wife
speaking at churches throughout the county about the preborn. He said he is also on the Social
Services Board and sees atrocities committed against children.
Commissioner Kidd is honored to be part of this decision. The preborn do not have a voice.
Vice-Chairman Allen is an adoptive parent. He is glad to hear that resources will be available
for people to foster and adopt children.
Chairman Frye spoke about his involvement with Your Choices Randolph allowing him to see
the scars of abortion. He dedicated his vote to his father.
On motion of McDowell, seconded by Haywood, the Board voted 5-0 to adopt the Resolution
to Declare Randolph County a Sanctuary for Life, as follows:
RESOLUTION OF THE RANDOLPH COUNTY BOARD OF COMMISSIONERS,
DECLARING THE COUNTY OF RANDOLPH, NORTH CAROLINA TO BE A
SANCTUARY FOR LIFE AND URGING THE CITIZENS OF THE COUNTY OF
RANDOLPH TO PROMOTE AND DEFEND THE INALIENABLE RIGHT TO LIFE
AND THE INHERENT DIGNITY OF ALL HUMAN BEINGS INCLUDING THE
PREBORN, FROM CONCEPTION OR FERTILIZATION THROUGH ALL STAGES
OF DEVELOPMENT
12/9/21
WHEREAS, the Declaration of Independence affirms that all men are created equal
and have been endowed by their Creator with certain unalienable rights— chief among
them the right to life— and that the protection of these rights is an affirmative duty of
federal, state, and local governments; and
WHEREAS, James Madison, who is considered to be the father of the Constitution,
wrote that "the accumulation of all powers, legislative, executive, and judiciary, in the
same hands...may justly be pronounced the very definition of tyranny"; and
WHEREAS, the Supreme Court of the United States has abused its proper function
of judicial review and supplanted it with the unconstitutional theory of judicial
supremacy in order to legislate and impose its policy preferences upon the people; and
WHEREAS, the Fifth and Fourteenth Amendments to the United States Constitution
provide for the protection of human life and liberty; and
WHEREAS, the Supreme Court of the United States in Poelker v. Doe (432 US 519,
1977) concluded that “the Constitution does not forbid a State or city, pursuant to
democratic processes, from expressing a preference for normal childbirth” instead of
abortion; and
WHEREAS, state police power derives from the Tenth Amendment to the United
States Constitution, which gives states the powers "not delegated to the United States”;
and
WHEREAS, the power to establish and enforce laws protecting the welfare, safety,
and health of the public is a core function of the state’s Tenth Amendment police power;
and
WHEREAS, Section I of the Constitution of North Carolina states that “all persons
are created equal; that they are endowed by their Creator with certain inalienable
rights; that among these are life, liberty, and the enjoyment of the fruits of their own
labor, and the pursuit of happiness”; and
WHEREAS, the Randolph County Board of Commissioners desires to express its
deep concern that all human beings at every stage of development, including before
birth, in Randolph County should be afforded protection from acts of cruelty and be
treated humanely and with dignity.
NOW, THEREFORE, BE IT RESOLVED:
Section 1. The Randolph County Board of Commissioners hereby recognizes and
declares the full humanity of the preborn child and declares Randolph County to be a
sanctuary for the pre-born, where the dignity of every human being will be defended
and promoted from conception or fertilization through all stages of development.
Section 2. The Randolph County Board of Commissioners hereby encourages citizens
to recognize, promote, and defend the inalienable right to life and the inherent dignity
of all human beings including the preborn, from conception or fertilization through all
stages of development.
Section 3. Based upon the desire to be recognized as a sanctuary for life, the Randolph
County Board of Commissioners shall arrange for the placement of a suitable
commemorative plaque on the grounds of the county government declaring Randolph
County to be a "Sanctuary for Preborn Children.”
12/9/21
Section 4. Based upon this resolution, the Randolph County Board of Commissioners
supports public input from citizens, churches, and other social organizations that may
help determine possible measures that can be adopted in order to provide support for
mothers and fathers of preborn children and to become a county that truly welcomes
and protects the gift of life from conception or fertilization through all stages of
development.
The Chairman called a short recess at 7:07 p.m. to allow people to leave if they wished.
The meeting resumed at 7:13 p.m.
Farm, Food, and Family Education Agriculture Center Funding
Kenny Sherin, Cooperative Extension Director, said that he is excited about a concept and
funding for an Agriculture Center. He thanked his staff for their hard work. The facility will be
an education-based center. Randolph County is a large agriculture county. The pandemic showed
how important it is for farmers to directly sell products to the public. The center will be used for
multiple purposes like education and showing animals. It will enhance food systems. A digital
skills lab will be included in the concept. There will also be a makerspace.
Funding has been secured in the state budget in the amount of $16 million. Randolph
Electric/US Department of Agriculture (USDA) has offered a low interest loan for $2 million. The
project is still $7 million short on the estimated amount that will be needed. He suggested forming
a committee involving many shareholders.
Commissioner Haywood said the direction of the project sounds fantastic. It is interesting to
see that it comes after the work on food resiliency. A possible Farmer’s Market on the Toyota site
would probably be well received.
Commissioner McDowell said he is pro-farmer. He feels the Center is overdue. He commended
Mr. Sherin and his staff for their hard work.
Chairman Frye stated that the project has been put on hold due to the pandemic and finding a
new owner for the hospital. An Agriculture Center is still a priority.
Will Massie, Assistant County Manager/Finance Officer, said he needed to find out how
quickly the funding will be available from the General Assembly. He may have an update at the
January meeting.
Vice-Chairman Allen said that this facility would house the Cooperative Extension Offices
which would save some funds. He praised State Representative Allen McNeill for his work on
getting the funding approved. He thinks creating a committee is a good idea.
Commissioner Kidd thanked everyone who has helped with this process. He knows that
Randolph Electric has a lot of interest in this project. He has many questions for the future of the
Center.
12/9/21
Mr. Sherin said this process occurred quickly.
Community Navigators/Social Workers at the Public Libraries
th
Ross Holt, Public Library Director, said on October 25, the Board approved funding out of
the Strategic Planning Reserve to place three social workers on the library staff for one year to
address the social services related needs of individuals and families, especially children, before
more formal intervention becomes necessary.
He stated that the job descriptions have been developed for these positions and he asked to add
the following titles to the pay plan at the indicated grade:
• Community Navigator/Social Worker, grade 117
• Community Navigator/Social Worker Lead, grade 118
Mr. Holt anticipates hiring two Community Navigator/Social Workers and one Lead. The total
cost of these positions for one year is $209,869. The remainder of the appropriated funding will
go toward other anticipated program expenses. Community Navigator/Social Worker is
comparable on the pay scale to Social Worker II; and Community Navigator/Social Worker Lead
is comparable to Librarian II.
Chairman Frye asked why this isn’t coming from Social Services. Mr. Holt said that Social
Services Director Tracie Murphy is a partner with the library on this project.
On motion of Haywood, seconded by Allen, the Board voted 4-1 with Kidd opposing to add
Community Navigator/Social Worker and Community Navigator/Social Worker Lead Positions to
the County’s Classification Plan.
Braxton Craven Feasibility Study
Paxton Arthurs, County Engineer, said with the opening of the new Trinity Middle School, the
future of the existing Braxton Craven School facility needs to be decided. With the ongoing
possibility of Medicaid expansion, the prospect of renovating the facility for use as an additional
office for Department of Social Services has been raised. Last spring, the County hired Smith
Sinnett Architecture to evaluate the feasibility of renovating the building and converting it to office
space for this purpose.
Mr. Arthurs explained which buildings that were studied. He showed a PowerPoint presentation
with the current layout and proposed office space. The cafeteria could not be used for office space.
There is not air conditioning in the building currently. New heat and air units could be added for
each group of four offices. The upgrade for office space is approximated at $5.8 million.
Vice-Chairman Allen asked if there were structural issues. Mr. Arthurs said there is water
damage in the basement but the upper floors can be used.
Chairman Frye asked if any part of the building could be used as a museum. Mr. Arthurs said
the basement would not be suitable due to the water issues.
12/9/21
Chairman Frye asked about the gym. Dr. Gainey, Randolph County School Superintendent,
said Trinity High School uses the gym, football fields, and the parking lot.
Commissioner McDowell said the School Board would need to agree to the County taking over
the school building.
Chairman Frye said parking after work hours should not be a problem.
Commissioner McDowell asked how many offices would be built. Mr. Arthurs said 85 offices
are being projected.
Commissioner McDowell asked Ms. Murphy how many offices she needed. Ms. Murphy said
she has not calculated that yet as this is still in the preliminary stages.
Commissioner McDowell said this was needed for Social Services.
Vice-Chairman Allen stated that a use for the basement would make the project easier to agree
to. Mr. Arthurs said the basement does not have appropriate access for the public..
Randolph County EMS Peer Review Committee
Chief Donovan Davis, Emergency Management Services (EMS) Director, said the bylaws and
membership of the EMS Peer Review Committee need to be updated. The Bylaws were formerly
adopted in 2003. The only changes to the new bylaws are to reflect new voting member positions
and to allow the Chairperson to appoint a designee in his/her absence. There will now be a total
of 27 voting members, seven more than before. There are no authoritative changes and all other
requirements remain the same. Member position requirements are defined/required by NC
Administrative Code 10A NCAC 13P .0408.
He asked the Board to do the following:
1. Repeal the current EMS Peer Review Committee Bylaws.
2. Adopt the new/updated EMS Peer Review Committee Bylaws.
3. Appoint the recommended Committee members as required by position in the NC
Administrative Code.
Chairman Frye asked why seven positions were added. Chief Davis said membership was
added to better represent first responders.
On motion of Haywood, seconded by Allen, the Board voted 5-0 to repeal the current EMS Peer
Review Committee Bylaws, adopt the new EMS Peer Review Bylaws, and appoint the members as
recommended.
Public Safety Radios
Chief Donovan Davis, EMS Director, stated he was requesting that the Board consider
authorization to purchase VIPER portable, mobile, and repeater radio replacements for all relevant
County departments including Animal Services, Emergency Services, Sheriff’s Office, and Public
Health. The equipment purchased in 2011 will reach its end-of-life and must be replaced within a
12/9/21
few years. It is essential that we start this project now because it will take nearly one year to
receive, program, and install the equipment. Staff from Emergency Services and the Sheriff’s
Office have worked carefully in planning this replacement project.
Two quotes have been received from the authorized Motorola Solutions representative at
Mobile Communications of America, in Fayetteville, NC. These prices are under NC state contract
19144 - 725G. The total amount for new portable and mobile radio replacements, repeaters, flash
drives, trunking software, programming keys, etc. is $2,291,709.30. In addition, a separate quote
includes encryption software, single system digital trunking, and digital smartzone technology
upgrades for radios that we will be able to keep in operation for the amount of $170,670.50. Project
total is $2,462,379.80.
Commissioner Kidd asked what the difference between the quotes was. Mr. Massie explained
that one was for new equipment and the other was for upgrading old equipment.
Commissioner Kidd said he wanted to be sure that the correct bid process was used. Chief
Davis said the price comes off of the State Contract that was already bid out and determined by
the State.
Commissioner McDowell asked if these radios were voted on today, all departments are locked
into this brand. Chief Davis said they could buy other brands but the County doesn’t have the
ability to program them.
Commissioner Kidd said he wanted to see a competitive bid process.
Chief Davis explained the complexity of the current system.
Chairman Frye asked how long it would take to bid it out. Chief Davis said a month or two.
Commissioner Kidd wanted to see the prices of other vendors on State contract. Chief Davis
said he could do that but they would lose their discount on the Motorola equipment. This was
confirmed by the Motorola representative who was in attendance.
Commissioner Kidd was displeased with the fact that discount pricing for the Motorola
equipment ends next week. In the future, he wants to see multiple bids.
A competitive bid process for the purchase of radios and equipment for the VIPER System was
requested on motion of McDowell, seconded by Kidd.
Justin Brubaker, Sheriff’s Office Business Manager, explained that he has already placed an
order for radios in the new vehicles. Motorola cannot extend the pricing and new pricing may be
even more expensive.
Vice-Chairman Allen said the familiarity with the equipment is there since Motorola is already
in use. There is a cost associated with changing companies.
12/9/21
Chairman Frye stated it was a long process to get everyone on the same system.
Commissioner Kidd said he feels like the Board has been put into a crunch. Other agencies
will have to use the same equipment even if it is most expensive.
Chairman Frye stated that in the past, fire departments couldn’t communicate by radio with law
enforcement. This is a matter of public safety.
Chief Davis is concerned about another brand being compatible with their current system.
Chief Davis asked the Board to consider the following:
1. Award the purchases to Motorola Solutions, Inc. through Mobile Communications of
America (MCA), in Fayetteville, NC.
2. Approve the purchase in the amount of $2,291,709.30 for new mobile and portable
radios and repeaters.
3. Approve the purchase in the amount of $170,670.50 for hardware/software to
upgrade existing portable and mobile radios.
4. Approve the County Manager to sign all associated contracts.
5. Approve the associated budget amendment.
Commissioner McDowell withdrew his motion.
On motion of Haywood, seconded by Allen, the Board voted 3-2 with McDowell and Kidd
opposing to 1) award the purchases to Motorola Solutions, Inc. through Mobile Communications
of America (MCA), in Fayetteville, NC, 2) approve the purchase in the amount of $2,291,709.30
for new mobile and portable radios and repeaters, 3) approve the purchase in the amount of
$170,670.50 for hardware/software to upgrade existing portable and mobile radios, 4) approve
the County Manager to sign all associated contracts, and 5) approve the associated budget
amendment, as follows:
2021-2022 Budget Ordinance
General Fund—Budget Amendment #23
Revenues Increase Decrease
Appropriated Fund Balance $2,462,380
4245,154
Appropriations Increase Decrease
Emergency Services $831,279
Sheriff’s Office $1,594,203
Animal Control $33,179

Browns Meadow Road
Aimee Scotton, Associate County Attorney, requested that the Board act to permanently close
the portion of Browns Meadow Road that runs across the Greensboro-Randolph Megasite,
specifically from its intersection with the north/east side of U.S. Highway 421 and continuing north
to its terminus at Old 421 Road. The closing of this portion of Browns Meadow Road is necessary
for the development of the Megasite property.
12/9/21
The procedure for closing a public road or easement is governed by North Carolina General
Statue §153A-241. The first step requires that the Board of Commissioners adopt a resolution
declaring its intent to close the road and calling for a public hearing on the question. This notice
must be published once a week for three successive weeks before the hearing, and a copy of the
resolution must be sent by certified mail to each owner of property adjoining the road, as shown
by the county tax records, who did not join in the request to have the road closed. Furthermore, a
notice of the closing and the public hearing must be posted in at least two places along the road.
At the public hearing, interested persons are allowed to voice their views on whether the closing
will be detrimental to the public interest or their individual property rights. After the public
hearing, if the Board of Commissioners is satisfied that closing this road will not be detrimental to
public interest and will not deprive any individual of access to his property, the Board may adopt
an order closing this portion of the road. A certified copy of the order shall then be filed with the
Register of Deeds office.
This is the first phase of the process.
Vice-Chairman Allen asked who was making the request. Ms. Scotton said it was requested on
behalf of the other property owners.
On motion of Kidd, seconded by McDowell, the Board voted 5-0 to adopt a Resolution
Declaring the Intent to Close a Section of Browns Meadow Road and Calling for a Public Hearing
on the Question, as follows:
A RESOLUTION DECLARING THE INTENT TO CLOSE A SECTION OF
BROWNS MEADOW ROAD AND CALLING FOR
A PUBLIC HEARING ON THE QUESTION
WHEREAS, the Randolph County Board of Commissioners has received a request
from to permanently close the following section of Browns Meadow Road:
From its intersection with the north/east side of U.S. Highway 421 and continuing
in a northerly direction to its terminus at Old 421 road; and
WHEREAS, North Carolina General Statute § 153A-241 requires that the Board
of Commissioners hold a public hearing prior to the closing of any road to consider
the effects of said closing on the public interest or on individual property rights;
BE IT THEREFORE RESOLVED that the Randolph County Board of
Commissioners hereby declares its intent to permanently close that portion of Browns
Meadow Road outlined above.
BE IT FURTHER RESOLVED that the Randolph County Board of
Commissioners has set a public hearing at a meeting to begin at 6:00 p.m. on Monday,
January 3, 2022 to consider said closing and to allow for the public to be heard on this
matter.
