The Randolph County Board of Commissioners met in regular session at 6:00 p.m. in the 1909
Randolph County Historic Courthouse Meeting Room, 145 Worth Street, Asheboro, NC.
Commissioners Frye, Haywood, Kemp, Allen, and Lanier were present. Dr. Bob Shackleford gave
the invocation.
The Randolph County Honor Guard led everyone in reciting the pledge of allegiance then
performed a flag folding ceremony.
Special Recognitions
The Commissioners recognized the Randolph County Honor Guard for their service to veterans
and their families and presented them with a Certificate of Recognition.
Centenarian Anne Daino, Clapps Convalescent Home resident, turned 102 on March 21, 2015,
and was recognized by the Board. Ms. Daino was unable to attend. Chairman Frye presented her
family with a certificate of recognition.
Recognition of Retiree
Sara Baker retired on March 31, 2015, with 35 years of service to Randolph County in Human
Resources. She was recognized by County Manager Hal Johnson, after which, Chairman Frye
presented Ms. Baker with an engraved clock on behalf of the Board and the Cardinal Award from
the Governor's office.
Public Comment Period
Pursuant to N.C.G.S. § 153A-52.1, Chairman Frye opened the floor for public comment.
County Attorney Ben Morgan read aloud the Public Comment Rules of Procedure.
Janet Pate, 3901 Hillsdale Park Dr., Sophia, said she wanted to address some items in the
agenda packet. The first was the request by the Sheriffs Department to spend approximately
$370,000 on a tactical vehicle. She said that she does not feel that Randolph County commonly
encounters threats which make this vehicle necessary. Ms. Pate stated that this is another instance of
,'money being spent recklessly."
Secondly, she said that she is not clear about the monies for the landfill mentioned in the minutes
from the planning retreat and asked if it that meant that the county was to get $1,000,000 per year
until the end of the thirty-year contract.
Next, she mentioned that the planning retreat minutes stated that there was a press release by the
Piedmont Triad Partnership (PTP) which announced that a new 501(c)(3) non-profit entity, to be
called the Greensboro -Randolph Megasite Foundation, was being created. Ms. Pate then referred to
the Golden Leaf Foundation and its funding of mega site ventures. She said it is her understanding
that the Golden Leaf Foundation was started to "take" monies from the tobacco companies to offset
the medical expenses from tobacco use, but currently uses the funding for economic development.
She said that she feels that tobacco related medical expenses would now be the responsibility of the
tax payers. Ms. Pate said she feels if "we" start a 501(c)(3) corporation that it would not be held
accountable to the tax payers of Randolph County. She asked who would be members of the
Foundation and who would be on the payroll.
4/6/15
In her final remarks, she said that the additional space that is needed for the new employees at
DSS will be costing the County, even though those employees are not costing the County.
Dana Romaine, 602 Booker T. Womble Rd., Randleman, she said she came in December to
speak about her opposition to the request for license plate scanners by the Sheriff's Department.
She said that the Commissioners made no inquiries prior to approving that purchase. Ms. Romaine
said that she doubts that any investigation on the need for a tactical vehicle has been completed
either. She urged the commissioners to do their research before funding a "frivolous" expenditure
that Randolph County does not need.
Lena Keller, 1870 Lassiter Mill Rd., Asheboro, spoke about the need for a law in Randolph
County that would abolish tethering dogs. She stated that many counties, including Guilford, have
already outlawed it. By instituting this new law, she felt it could save the tax payers money, reduce
the population of unwanted puppies, and lower the possibility of injury from tethered dogs. Ms.
Keller believed that thousands of animals a year will be put down at the Animal Shelter while using
tax payer money if nothing is done to stop this neglect and mistreatment of dogs. In conclusion, she
noted that outlawing tethering will not solve all of the problems, but believes it is a step in the right
direction.
Bobby Ferguson, 8703 Old Hwy 421, Julian, inquired about the status of the purchase of the
land by Randolph County for the potential mega site. Chairman Frye responded that it should all be
purchased by Friday, April I Oh.
Alan Ferguson, 4794 Troy Smith Rd., Liberty, stated he has been told that the Tax Department
was visiting in his neighborhood. He felt the timing was "curious" and wondered if the County was
reappraising property in that area for the mega site. He said this was very upsetting to many of the
residents, as well as to him. He questioned the Board as to why the Tax Collector would be in the
area asking questions. Chairman Frye stated that he was made aware of the situation before the
meeting. He asked Debra Hill, Tax Assessor, to speak on this issue. She apologized for the timing
and stated that the presence of her staff in that area had nothing to do with the mega site. They were
beginning the work for the next reappraisal. As soon as she learned of the concern, she pulled her
staff out of that quadrant of the county. Chairman Frye recommended that they postpone their
research in that area until a later time. Ms. Hill responded that it had already been postponed until
further notice. She apologized again and restated that her employees were only doing their daily
work. Mr. Ferguson thanked Ms. Hill for addressing the issue.
Jon Nance, 3483 New Hope Church Rd., Asheboro, thought that citizens kept getting
"bulldozed" when it came to the actions of the government and recommended that citizens become
more involved with the entire process, not just voting for a candidate. He also expressed his
concern about the request for the tactical vehicle feeling that the County should call in the military
when such dangerous situations arose.

Ralph Modlin as an alternate to the Planning and Zoning Board ofAdjustment.

Update and request from the US Motto Action Committee
Fred McClure, US Motto Action Committee Representative, spoke regarding the request of the
US Motto Action Committee to have "In God We Trust" displayed in and on government buildings.
Since the movement began, Mr. McClure stated, over twenty cities and counties in North Carolina
have already added the motto to one or more of their buildings, adding that Alamance County just
voted today to add it to their building. The US Motto Action Committee will pay for the installation
of "In God We Trust" on or in a governmental building. In November 2011, it was resolved by the
House of Representatives to reaffirm "In God We Trust" as the national motto. Commissioner
Lanier said "In God We Trust" should be added to the Historic Courthouse. Chairman Frye asked
staff to research locations and present recommendations to the Board.
On motion of Lanier, seconded by Haywood, the Board voted unanimously to authorize the
installation of the national motto, `In God We Trust, " in or on a County building with the location
to be determined by the Board at a future meeting.
Annual Report from the Workforce Development Board
Kathy Slovak, Director, presented the July 1, 2013 -June 30, 2014, annual report of the Regional
Partnership Workforce Development Board's Local Workforce Development Area. She said in
Randolph County, employment services were provided to assist adults, dislocated workers, and youth
with a total expenditure of $575,182.
Ms. Slovak explained that Governor McCrory had authorized the merger of the Wagner-Peyser Act
(created the [ESC] Employment Security Commission), the Workforce Investment Act (WIA), and the
Trade Adjustment Assistance centers into one location. This merger is currently underway in Randolph
County with completion by May 2015. The Division of Workforce Solutions and the Randolph County
Work Center will be located together at 600 S. Fayetteville St., Asheboro. Other programs will be
relocated to the facility in the future to create an NCWorks Center which will enhance workforce service
capabilities for both job seekers and employers.
Ms. Slovak explained that Governor McCrory initiated and authorized the consolidation of services
delivered through the Workforce Investment Act (WIA) and Wagner-Peyser Act (ESC) programs.
(The Wagner-Peyser Act created the [ESC] Employment Security Commission.) With the goal to more
efficiently and effectively serve the public, the former North Carolina Employment Security
Commission was merged into the North Carolina Department of Commerce. The main objectives of
this merger are to: improve customer service for workers and employers, implement the merger
with minimum negative impact on customers, consolidate and improve workforce development
efforts, and maximize savings in state and federal resources. This ESC, which is now called the
Division of Workforce Solution and the Randolph County Career Center (formerly the JobLink Center)
merger is currently underway with completion by May 2015. They will be located together at 600 S.
Fayetteville St., Asheboro. Other programs will be relocated to the facility in the future to create an
NCWorks Center. Ms. Slovak said it will enhance workforce service capabilities for both job seekers
and employers.
Update on the Asheboro Municipal Airport Renovations
4/6/15
Bob Crumley, member of the Airport Authority, spoke regarding the Asheboro Regional Airport
New Terminal Development Project. He highlighted assets that the Airport Authority sees as things
an airport should have to encourage economic development and tourism. With a new terminal, the
Airport Authority feels that it can take advantage of those opportunities. The plan is to build a new
facility on the current property that will accommodate areas for pilots and crew, rooms for meeting
facilities, and space for a cafe. The old facility will be renovated for use as a flight school. The
current timeline is planning and approval in 2015, fundraising and financing in 2016, and
construction in 2017. The Authority hopes funding can be obtained through State and Federal
grants, city and county allocations, and private donations.
Approval of Use of Law Enforcement Restricted Funds for Purchase of Tactical Response
Vehicle
Jane Leonard, Assistant Business Manager, stated that Sheriff Reid is requesting the expenditure
of $363,817 in law enforcement restricted funds. The funds will be used to purchase a Lenco
BearCat tactical response vehicle. She presented the following information from the manufacturer
of the vehicle.
The BearCat is built on a Ford F550 chassis with four doors and a 4 -wheel off-road upgrade
package. It has an open floor plan that can comfortably accommodate a fully -equipped 10 to 12 -
man tactical team. In addition, this BearCat features run -flat tires, roof mounted spot lights, back
up camera system with monitor, intercom system (inside to outside), hydraulic ram, thermal image
and color camera with flat screen color monitor, and ballistic plating to defeat any threats
commonly encountered.
Ms. Leonard said the tactical response vehicle will be used in emergency situations when there is
an active threat against the public while providing the response team with ballistic protection, such
as with hostages, barricaded subjects, or downed-officer/civilian rescue. With the thermal image
system, it can also assist in search and rescue operations.
She said this BearCat will replace two old vehicles that are severely outdated and will greatly
enhance the tactical response and rescue capabilities of the Sheriffs Department. Ms. Leonard
stated the first vehicle has no ballistic protection as it is a converted 1997 ambulance and the other
vehicle with protection is a 1969 model peace -keeper military vehicle in a non -running state and is
not street legal.
The BearCat they wish to purchase is manufactured and sold by Lenco Armored Vehicles, Inc.
The vehicle comes fully equipped with all components installed. The total cost of the BearCat is
$349,336. Additional costs are the vehicle exterior spray for $4,000 that will be done locally and
the DMV vehicle tax of $10,481. Ms. Leonard stated that the Law Enforcement Restricted Fund is
not tax money, but from drug stops, and can only be used for one-time purchases not recurring
expenses. Commissioners inquired about the balance of the fund and Ms. Leonard said there are
sufficient funds.
She said the vehicle is currently a Federal Contract item, listed as number GS -07F -0390M
through General Services Administration (GSA). Based on NC General Statute 143-129 (e) 9(a),
the County is able to make this purchase without a separate formal bid since the federal government
has already established the contract.
4/6/15
Colonel Fred Rutledge explained why this vehicle would be beneficial to the Sheriff's
Department. He also mentioned that the ACLU does not want military vehicles used.
Commissioner Haywood asked if this was a civilian vehicle and Colonel Rutledge responded
that it was.
Commissioner Allen asked who in our area had this type of vehicle. Colonel Rutledge answered
that Greensboro had the larger version and felt like it was too big and they wished they had added
four-wheel drive. He said that the City of High Point also has one and recommended certain
equipment for it.
Commissioner Allen asked about the cost of running it. Colonel Rutledge said he did not have
figures, but that it was a large Ford engine and he estimated that it would get five or six miles to the
gallon because of that.
Chairman Frye said that he had spoken with the Major at the City of High Point and was told
that they used the vehicle weekly and they would buy another one if it needed replacing.
Commissioner Lanier said that if one life was saved, this purchase was all worth it.
On motion of Lanier, seconded by Kemp, the Board voted unanimously to approve the purchase
of a Lenco BearCat Tactical Vehicle in the amount of $363,817 through GSA contract and to
approve Budget Amendment #33, as follows:

Approval of Purchase of New 9-1-1 Recording System
Emergency Services Director Donovan Davis presented a request to approve the purchase of a
new radio and telephone digital recording system. The current system is over five years old. The
system is necessary to record all radio channels and telephone lines within the 9-1-1 Center for legal
purposes and limited historical value.
The EMS department would like to purchase the Eventide recording system from Carolina
Recording Systems, Inc. out of Charlotte, NC. The recorder and associated equipment is available
through GSA contract for the amount of $67,585.35. The full amount is an allowable expense
through the 9-1-1 Emergency Telephone Fund, and existing monies are available in the 2014-15
budget to purchase this system.
On motion of Haywood, seconded by Allen, the Board voted unanimously to approve the
purchase of the Eventide recording system from Carolina Recording Systems, Inc. in the amount of
$67,585.35 and to authorize the County Manager to sign the approved contract.
4/6/15
Approval of Bid for a 2012 CDBG Scattered Site Housing (SSH) Contract
Brian Heilig, Building Inspections Inspector and CDBG Grants Coordinator, said the SSH Site
Selection Committee and the Piedmont Triad Regional Council (PTRC) received applications under
the 2012 CDBG SSH Grant and have selected one home, obtained two bids for renovation on it, and
provided evidence of those bids at the meeting. Although the initial bids were higher, Mr. Heilig
explained that the maximum amount that can be spent on each dwelling is $40,000. The lowest
bidding contractor was contacted, the bid was reviewed, and the scope of work was amended to stay
within the limits.
Mr. Heilig requested the Board award the bid to renovate the home at 546 Westminster Dr.
Asheboro to Ideal Construction in the amount of $40,000 and to authorize the County Manager to
sign the approved contract.
On motion of Allen, seconded by Kemp, the Board voted unanimously to award the contract for
renovation to Ideal Construction for the 546 Westminster Dr., Asheboro home at $40, 000 and to
authorize the County Manager to sign the approved contract for this house.
Adoption of the Animal Shelter Capital Project Ordinance
Finance Officer Will Massie said that in order to account for all costs related to the renovation and
expansion of the Randolph County Animal Shelter, a multi-year capital project fund should be
established, separate from the General Fund. G.S. 159-13.2 states "a project ordinance authorizes all
appropriations necessary for the completion of the project and neither it nor any part of it need be
readopted in any subsequent fiscal year."
He said the initial costs will be funded through donations. This includes an actual $25,000
bequest made to the animal shelter and the $750,000 pledge from Waste Management. Once the
design phase is complete and we have actual contractor bids in hand, the Commissioners will select
the contractor and approve an amendment to this ordinance to authorize the construction costs.
Mr. Massie requested the Board of Commissioners adopt the capital project ordinance to account
for initial costs related to this project.
On motion of Kemp, seconded by Allen, the Board voted unanimously to adopt the Animal
Shelter Capital Project Ordinance, as follows:
