Request for Approval of Budget Amendment #39 for the Purpose of
Transferring Funds from Debt Service to Capital Outlay for Funds not Needed for
Current Year Debt Retirement and to Reduce the Amount Budgeted for Interest
Earnings on Certificates of Participation (COPS) Proceeds: Finance Director
Blumenstein said the 2003 COPS planning phase occurred at the same time as the
preparation of the FY 03-04 budget, and at that time, it was too early to predict the
actual amounts on interest paid and earned through April of 2004. Mrs. Blumenstein
said additional funding was now available to the three school units, and a budget
amendment was needed. She said no new money was involved in the request, and it
was basically moving funds to capital for future projects.
Commissioner Williams asked how much was originally budgeted.
Blumenstein said $723,000.
The commissioners were in agreement to approve the request; however, they
added a stipulation that all three school systems report back to them on how the funds
were spent.
(See regular minutes for more detail on the budget amendment.)
SOUTH IREDELL SMALL AREA PLAN (SISAP): The commissioners
briefly discussed the SISAP that for the most part was approved on April 6, 2004. It
was mentioned that on May 5, 2004, the Mooresville commissioners voted to ask for
ETJ in some areas of southern Iredell, but no official request had been submitted to the
county.
Commissioner Tice stressed that she wanted all of the property owners, who had
already applied for rezonings in the south Iredell areas being discussed, and who had
gone through the proper channels, to be given full consideration when their cases were
heard.
Planning Supervisor Smith said he would inquire with the Mooresville staff on
when an official request might be presented.
ADJOURNMENT: Chairman Johnson adjourned the briefing session at 6:05
p.m.
