Commissioners Holmes, Frye, Kemp, Lanier and Haywood were present. Also present were County Manager Richard Wells; Will Massie, Assistant County Manager/Finance Officer; County Attorney Ben Morgan; Aimee Scotton, Associate County Attorney; Amanda Varner, Deputy Clerk to the Board; Dana Crisco, Interim Deputy Clerk; Bonnie Renfro, Randolph County EDC President and Kevin Franklin, EDC. Bonnie Renfro, EDC President, informed the Board that a confidential client is seeking incentives for an expansion project, which is competitive with another state and that an incentives proposal from NC has been extended. A portion of the investment will occur in Randolph County, but the number is still to be determined. She said they have requested more information specific to the economic impact on Randolph County and the amount of incentives would be contingent on that economic impact. Ms. Renfro said that she would keep the Board informed on any new developments with this project. At 8:12 p.m., on motion of Lanier, seconded by Kemp, the Board voted unanimously to end closed session and to return to regular session. J. Harold Holmes, Chairman Kemp Darrell L.
