Chairmen Frye explained to the Board that the water and sewer lines to the new Uwharrie
Charter Academy (UCA) Highschool were not complete. UCA has been required to have their
septic system pumped daily in order to occupy the building. He stated that it was costing
approximately $10,000 per month to have this done. He asked if the Board would want the County
to pay that expense while the water and sewer lines were being developed and constructed.
