WHEREAS, the subject street has been found to meet minimum requirements for addition.
NOW, THEREFORE, BE IT RESOLVED by the Randolph County Board of Commissioners that Harvell

Mental Health Update and Budget Request
Michael Watson, Chief Executive Officer, Sandhills Center for Mental Health, Developmental
Disabilities and Substance Abuse Services, gave the Board an update on the recent operations of the
Sandhills Center. He said that during FY 04-05, Sandhills Center will experience dramatic changes in
their basic funding structure such as 1) Effective 7/1/04, the Center will begin to receive its LME (Local
Management Entity) funding (funding levels based on population level); 2) Implementation of new State
Medicaid rates, effective 7/1/04, that will impact the financial viability of Sandhills Center's remaining
services delivery operations and will result in the loss of about $3 million in administrative overhead
funding that the Center has received; and 3) The planned implementation (projected for 1/05) of new State
Medicaid service definitions will redefine the type, volume and location of client services.
Mr. Watson stated that the Sandhills Center FY04-05 County general funding requests have been
submitted to each of the six constituent counties. Based on a review of the current funding levels for each
county, it was decided by the Sandhills Area Board that a 10% increase would be requested from the two
lowest funded counties (Anson and Hoke). This funding is viewed as "catch up" funding designed to
bring their support more in line with the remaining Sandhills counties. No additional funding is being
requested from Moore, Montgomery, Richmond and Randolph Counties. Specifically, Sandhills is
requesting $972,176 from Randolph County.
Mr. Watson said that the Sandhills Center has completed its State LBP (Local Business Plan) review
and has been granted "conditional certification." This certification represents the highest possible level of
State approval and reflects the quality of our LBP and allows Sandhills Center to begin operating as an
LME effective 7/1/04.

New Business Additions to Agenda
Chairman Holmes announced that Item K. Authorize the Finalization of the Closing of a Courthouse
Alleyway and Item L. Update on Junked Vehicle Progress have been added to the Agenda.
Approve Fees for Glucose Tolerance Testing
MiMi Cooper, Public Health Director, said that the Health Department has recently purchased
equipment that allows their laboratory to conduct glucose tolerance testing (GTT) in the Health
Department rather than paying for the test through an outside lab. The cost of the test through the private
lab was $22. The Health Department can now provide this test for $14. The Randolph County Board of
Health approved the new fee of $14 per test (applied on a sliding fee scale basis) at their 4/19/04 meeting
and is now asking this Board for their approval.
On motion of Davis, seconded by Frye, the Board voted unanimously to approve the new fee of $14 per
test for glucose tolerance testing to be applied on a sliding fee scale basis at the Health Department.
Reauest from State Emnlovees Credit Union to Install ATM Machine at Courthouse
David Townsend, III, Public Works Director, said that Lynn Jones of the Credit Union had worked
with engineers to select a more suitable location (than the location presented at the 2/2/04 Commissioners
meeting) for the installation of an ATM machine in the Courthouse parking lot. Mr. Jones also spoke,
stating that the proposed machine site would take up 3 parking spaces. Commissioner Kemp expressed
concern that the County could not afford to lose 3 parking spaces at the Courthouse since parking is such
a problem on the days when court dockets are extremely heavy.
On motion of Kemp, seconded by Frye, the Board voted unanimously to deny the request by the State
Employees Credit Union to install an ATM machine in the Courthouse parking lot.

County departments and asked that these items be approved for public auction. She also asked that the
Board authorize the sale of this property at the public auction on Friday, 5/21, 12:00 p.m.
On motion of Davis, seconded by Mason, the Board unanimously approved the following resolution:
WHEREAS, Randolph County has in its possession the attached list of surplus personal property; and
WHEREAS, Randolph County deems it advisable to declare surplus and dispose of this property;
NOW, THEREFORE BE IT RESOLVED that Audrey Alexander, Purchasing Officer, and .lane H Leonard,
Deputy Finance Officer, are authorized by the Randolph County Board of Commissioners to dispose of this
property by public auction on Friday, May 21, 2004 at 12:00 P.M. in the parking lot of the Old Randolph Rest

Approve Finalization of the Closing of a Courthouse Area Alleyway
Aimee Scotton, County Attorney, said that the Board needed to authorize the finalization of
the property agreements regarding the closing of a 16 -foot alleyway at the old Courthouse. She reminded
the Board that they had previously approved the closing of the alleyway. When the alleyway was closed,
part of the alleyway property reverted to the owners of the properties that joined with the
alleyway (lawyers' row). In return for these owners granting quitclaim deeds of this property to the
County, the County agreed to grant these owners perpetual easements for access and parking. Ms.
Scotton asked the Commissioners to approve the signing of the final paperwork (i.e. the easements and
other necessary documents).
On motion of Kemp, seconded by Mason, the Board authorized the finalization of the closing of an
alleyway at the Courthouse and authorized the Chairman to sign any necessary closing documents.

initial 80 cases had to be filed (in the court system). One of the 8 property owners brought her property
into compliance after the lawsuit had been filed. The County has secured default judgments against the
