2

Chairman Coble stated a tornado came into Wake County on April 16, 2011 at approximately 4:05 p.m. and took approximately 50 minutes to pass through

the county, touching down eight times doing considerable damage throughout the county. Between 4:00 p.m. - 5:00 p.m., the 911 center answered 555

phone calls and dispatched 322 emergency calls. Initially, approximately 350 first responders responded to the emergency. The EOC was activated at 4:33 p.m. and staffed to a level to declare the facility operational by 5:00 p.m., which

was very quick response. The EOC remained open 24 hours per day for four more days and remained opened for day time operations for two more days. The EOC was staffed by 55 staff members representing 9 different county

departments. Over 600 people were sheltered. Human Services staffed and facilitated shelter operations which continued until May 6, 2011. The County

coordinated with FEMA (Federal Emergency Management Agency) and received approval on May 7 to clean up private roads in unincorporated areas of the county. The debris contractor began the final sweep of the county on June 1st

and operations ceased on June 4th.

Chairman Coble complimented Mr. Josh Creighton and other staff that worked in the EOC for their remarkable response and assistance with tornado victims. He noted that many of the staff was present who worked during the emergency.

He expressed his thanks for all the work provided by the staff which was time taken away from their families and their weekends. He said the board was very grateful for the staff’s work for the citizens of Wake County.

Mr. Josh Creighton, Wake County Emergency Management Coordinator, said

that there were over 55 staff members that participated in a large number of hours in the response efforts along with 300 emergency responders in the field. He said there were 1800 dispatches done that day by the 911 center in

response to calls, which is 400 more than the average for a whole day. Between 3pm and 7pm there were 1,100 dispatched calls. The normal calls per day received usually averages about 2,200 but that day they received

around 3,400 phone calls. They received 2,700 phone calls in the four hour period which is 400 more than they usually do during a 24 hour period. All

911 calls were answered within twenty seconds. Over 70 EMS responders, 85 law enforcement personnel and 200 fire fighters

responded out in the field initially. He said on the initial wave of staffing in the EOC there were 20 staff members. He said people responded to the EOC

within five minutes of his call. He recognized staff that participated in the efforts: Dr. Brent Myers (EMS),

Elizabeth Scott and Mike Mescall Human Services), Dave Goodwin (GSA), Charles Friddle and Bill Scanlon (Community Services), Steve Newton and Ray Echevarria (Fire and Emergency Management) and Marcus Kinrade (Revenue).

Mr. Creighton said these individuals committed a lot of hours working for the county and tornado victims.

3

Mr. Creighton gave additional information as follows:

3,016 residential buildings damaged

124 commercial buildings damaged 600 people were sheltered

200 residents were left without a dwelling to occupy At the end of the third week, only two residents had secured temporary or

permanent housing.

He said that 62 miles of roadway was covered with debris and the debris cleanup was finally completed this past Friday.

Chairman Coble said that the Wake County Sheriff’s Office participated in the

efforts to help and called up Sergeant Doug Newkirk to be recognized. He said that the citizens of Wake County should be proud of how the employees responded in this critical situation. Vice-Chairman Matthews said that he was

impressed with staff and their response. He complimented staff for their work.

Commissioner Ward also expressed her appreciation to the staff. She said that Mr. Tommy Esqueda, Environmental Services Director, helped her in assisting a family with trees down on their property.

Mr. Creighton also recognized Sergeant Newkirk from the Wake County Sheriff’s Office for his efforts during this time.

Fiscal Year 2011 Final Budget Revisions Betty Lou Ward motioned, seconded by Phil Matthews, to approve budget

revisions to the Fiscal Year 2011 General Fund, County Capital Projects Fund, Revaluation Fund, Debt Service Fund and Sewer District Fund.

The motion passed unanimously.

Hammond Road Detention Center Phase 2 - County Capital Projects and

Debt Service Fund: The current Hammond Road Phase 2 Detention Center

budget totals $152,499,999.52; another $3,030,000 is budgeted separately for

the ARRA funded portion of the project. At this time, it is anticipated that

there will be $2.8 million in savings in the project, primarily a result of a

favorable bid climate and limited use of project contingency.

The project is entirely financed with Limited Obligation Bonds (LOBs) issued in

support of the Hammond Road Detention Center Phase 2 project. It is

permissible to use LOBs proceeds to pay a portion of the interest costs of the

LOBs. In order to use the proceeds to pay interest costs, it is necessary to

reduce the appropriation for the Hammond Road Detention Center Phase 2

project and to appropriate the transfer of these proceeds in the Debt Service

Fund.

Public Safety Center Renovation: Currently, there is $211,474.96 in

remaining funds budgeted for the Public Safety Center under the Detention

Facilities Program in the County Capital Projects Fund. Per the capital projects

fund ordinance, Board of Commissioner approval is required to move

appropriation between programs. It is requested that these dollars be

combined with the Public Safety Renovation project which is budgeted under

the Public Safety Center program.

Revaluation Fund: Real property revaluation is required by Chapter 105,

Section 286 of North Carolina General Statutes. To pay for the revaluation,

Chapter 153A, Section 150 calls for Counties to establish a reserve account

and appropriate annual installments needed to complete the next revaluation.

Any revenue designated to revaluation reserves may not be used for any

purpose other than the revaluation of real property. These funds have been

maintained in a Special Revenue fund.

Due to changes in accounting standards and an interpretation by the North

Carolina Local Government Commission, the Revaluation Reserve Fund can no

longer be accounted for in a Special Revenue Fund. The Revaluation Reserve

will be set aside as a subfund (or individual account) in the General Fund’s

Revenue Department. Any appropriation that is unused at the end of the fiscal

year will move to fund balance and be designated for the next revaluation in

2016.

To close out the Special Revenue Fund, the accumulated fund balance of the

Revaluation Reserve Fund must be transferred to the General Fund. The

current estimate of the amount to move from the Revaluation Reserve Fund to

the General Fund is $2,605,142. In the event Revaluation Reserve Fund

actuals exceed or otherwise vary from the estimate, actual net proceeds shall

constitute the appropriation moved between the two funds.

Sewer District Fund: The Sewer District fund was set up in the mid 1990’s

to account for the Clean Water Revolving loans issued to assist several sewer districts within the County to construct wastewater systems to connect these

districts to public utility treatment systems. The fund also accounted for the special assessments issued for the repayment of these loans.

These loans were paid off in FY 2007 and the special assessments have been

collected. Therefore, the County no longer has a need for this fund. In order to

complete the close out of the Sewer District fund $601,776 will be appropriated

and then transferred to the General Fund. In the event Sewer District Fund

actuals exceed or otherwise vary from the estimate, actual net proceeds shall

constitute the appropriation moved between the two funds.

General Fund – Health Insurance: Funds for health insurances come from

three sources: the county share, the employee share and the retiree share.

The retiree share represents the amount paid to the County by the retiree for

the cost of dependent coverage or if the retiree chooses to participate in the

plan offering that is not free. During FY 2011, the amounts paid by retirees

were not included in the revenues or the expenditures for the health plan. To

ensure that sufficient appropriation exists to pay all health claims during the

fiscal year, it is necessary to appropriate the funding for retiree payments

estimated at $636,000.

Regular Agenda

Centennial Authority Appointment Chairman Coble nominated Steve Stroud for reappointment and Gary Pendleton for appointment to the Centennial Authority. He asked if there were

14

other nominations and there were none. The vote on the appointments passed unanimously.

Public Hearing on the County Manager's Recommended Budget for Fiscal Year 2011-2012

Public Hearing Format: a. Introduction b. Open Public Hearing c. Comments from Interested Parties d. Recess Public Hearing Mr. John Miller, 300 Downs Court, asked the board to provide the county’s

portion of funding for the Horticulture Agent position in the Cooperative Extension Department.

Mr. Thad Woodard, Boys and Girls Club, asked for assistance with the $2.5

million needed for the Boys and Girls Club.

Mr. Ralph Capps said that the Boys and Girls Club has educated teens for years and asked for the support of the board as part of the public/private partnership.

Mr. Mark Jacques served on the CFAC and on the NAMI. He is in support of mental health funding in the budget for programs. He asked for funding for the 16 additional beds at WakeBrook.

Ms. Ruth Peebles, Executive Director, Partnership to End Homelessness, requested the 10% cut be reduced in the affordable housing program which provides homes for the homeless population not be reduced.

Ms. Becky Harrison asked for funding support for the homeless programs. Reduction in funding means reduction in services that help citizens and asked that the funding not be reduced.

Mr. Rob Griffin, Board Member for CASA, asked for the funding for CASA not be reduced. He said that the cuts to the non-profits will have a large impact on

services.

Ms. Earline Middleton said that the Food Bank distributes food to the people in the community in need of food. She said that funding cuts would have a great

impact. She asked that the funding be restored and not eliminated.

Mr. Bob Kellum, 731 Rogers Lane, said that he is a farmer and supports the full funding of the position in Cooperative Extension. Elimination of the

Horticulture Agent position would have great impacts on the local farmers and

15

the children's programs. He stated the Farmers Market has grown from three to fourteen in three years. He asked the board to reconsider funding the

position.

Ms. Alice Lutz, CEO of Triangle Family Services, spoke of the 26 week Abuser Treatment Program (DOSE) and its 95% success rate. The county has

proposed a reduction of $50,000 to this program. She said the $50,000 from the county is essential to the continuation of this program.

Ms. Claire Miller asked that the County Commissioners fund the county's

portion ($22,000) of the vacant Horticulture Agent position. The position helps with the Master Gardner Program and shared the activities supported by this

position. With the volunteers time donated, this is a great return on investment.

Mr. Andy Cook, Interfaith Food Shuttle Board member, introduced Ms. Jill

Staton Bullard, Founder and CEO of the Interfaith Food Shuttle, and Mr. Stan Taylor, Vice President of Corporate Planning at WakeMed Hospital and former chairman of the Interfaith Food Shuttle, came forward in support of the Food

Shuttle. He asked for restoration of $500,000 in the Wake County Community Partnership Fund.

Ms. Eleanor Oakley, United Arts Director, asked for continued support of the

United Arts Program. She spoke of the public/private partnership with Raleigh and Wake County and the proposed reduction in funding for United Arts. She

stated the reduction would mean a reduction in grants acquired by the program.

Ms. Michelle Zechmann, Executive Director of Haven House Services, spoke of

the reduction proposed in the Juvenile Crime Prevention Council budget. She said the funds have been received for 33 years. The reduction will impact 700 kids and could mean the elimination of two programs, with one being for kids

involved in gang related activities. The Community Service program may be reduced which is where the kids work to pay back the victims. It would also

slow down the court system.

Ms. Karen Rindge, WakeUp Wake County, said that she has served on the Wake County Sustainability Task Force. She asked that the board support the

schools' budget. She noted a real estate transfer tax should be considered for additional revenue. Without critical funding for the schools, Wake County Public Schools will rank 49th in the nation for per pupil funding.

Ms. Lynn Edmonds asked that the board support school funding in light of the additional 3,400 new students expected and the additional 6,000 students received in the last two years, with no additional funding support. She asked

for an increase in per pupil allotment.

16

Ms. Charlotte Mitchell, Board of Directors of the Women’s Center of Wake County, asked for support of community partners (9 Agencies) that support the

needy and homeless in Wake County. She spoke in support of the Affordable Housing Program.

Mr. Kent Goddard spoke of support for WakeBrook and funding the staffing of

the additional 16 beds. He said it was not acceptable for the county to not move forward on the WakeBrook facility and opening the upstairs unit. He asked others there in support of WakeBrook to stand and about 15 people

stood.

Multi-family Affordable Housing Development Loans Ms. Annemarie Maiorano, Housing and Community Redevelopment Program Manager, asked for approval of five loans for affordable housing projects. She stated a request for proposals was distributed, in partnership with the Town of

Cary, City of Raleigh and Wake County. Of the 12 applications received, five were recommended for funding with support of the Housing Committee of the Human Services Board.

The projects were described as follows:

Agency. In addition, all awards are contingent upon the basic terms as identified in the project descriptions, including funding commitments from the financial partners as identified.

The motion passed unanimously.

Approval of a Multi-Year Contract with Daymark Recovery Services to Provide Facility-Based Crisis and Non-Hospital Medical Detoxification

Services Dr. Carlyle Johnson, Wake County LME Director, stated they had completed a request for proposals process for selection of a provider to operate a 16-bed

18

unit at WakeBrook to provide 24/7/365 crisis stabilization services and each unit will be dually licensed to provide Facility-Based Crisis and Non-Hospital

Detoxification services. This unit will serve as an alternative to inpatient psychiatric hospitalization for adults with mental illness and substance abuse

problems who are in need of short term (3-5 days) care to stabilize an acute crisis situation or safely withdraw individuals from substances such as alcohol, opiates, barbiturates and other drugs. These services are new to Wake County

and will provide a local residential crisis resource for Wake County residents who often must receive services in state psychiatric facilities or inpatient psychiatric units in other counties. The selection committee reviewed the

vendor responses from Daymark Recovery Services and Southlight, conducted staff interviews, contacted references. and visited a community provider of

facility-based crisis and non-hospital medical detoxification services. The selection committee recommended a multi-year contract with Daymark Recovery Services, effective July 1, 2011, with anticipated initiation of service

delivery by September 1, 2011. The Human Services Board has reviewed and endorsed the recommendation to award this contract to Daymark. County

funding in the amount of $2,114,099 will be budgeted for FY 12 for start-up and operational expenses. He recognized Mr. Billy West with Daymark for comments. Mr. West shared that the business was formed 9 years ago and

serves 27 counties.

Tony Gurley motioned, seconded by Phil Matthews, to authorize the County Manager to enter into a three-year contract with Daymark Recovery Services to

Provide Facility-Based Crisis and Non-Hospital Medical Detoxification Services, with the option of two additional one-year renewals, subject to terms and conditions acceptable to the County Attorney. The motion passed unanimously.

Chairman Coble asked the County Manager to clarify the questions regarding implementation and funding of the two units.

Mr. Cooke said that this is one of two contracts for the two-16 bed units. The approval of the contracts and budget allows moving ahead with the State of

North Carolina licensing procedure. No patients will be seen before August or September and then a six month evaluation on utilization and trends will be done on this unit to help determine the best use of the remaining 16 beds.

Resolution to Revise the Residence Districts for the Wake County Board of Commissioners

Chairman Coble said that a resolution revising the residential districts for the

Wake County Board of Commissioners' districts for the next election was provided in the agenda. He recognized Commissioner Ward on her request to

present an additional map for consideration. Commissioner Ward provided a copy of an amended map to each of the commissioners.

19

Commissioner Ward circulated another map with her request that the dividing line for District 6 move to Highway 1, the precincts between her district and

Highway 1 be added to her district.

Paul Coble motioned, seconded by Tony Gurley, to adopt a Resolution with map provided by staff revising the residence districts for the Wake County Board of Commissioners.

Commissioner Gurley said that all the seven districts were within 10% on the map the staff prepared for the agenda which addressed his concern for balance between districts.

Commissioner Ward said that she had no input on the proposed map and did not think adding a simple extension to her district was not an unreasonable

request. She expressed concern about the Chairman and his choice to not look at her request was puzzling. She said she had checked with Commissioner

Bryan about moving her district into his district and he was not opposed to the request. She was not opposed to using population on the other side of her district for the other commissioner's district. She questioned the input she had

on the maps and who participated in the generation of the map. She said she had no input into the proposed map.

Chairman Coble said it was made clear that anyone who wanted input on the districts should let him know. He stated everyone else had input and he spent

time with everyone who called him or sat down to talk about the map. He said he did not receive any comments from her until he received an email from her this morning with a map.

Commissioner Gurley said that his only concern was that the districts be

within 10%. With all commissioners elected county-wide, the districts should be similar to allow for a fair opportunity to run for the board of commissioners. He said he was not concerned with where the precinct lines fell but was

concerned about there being a 10% relationship between districts and the proposed map meets that criteria.

Commissioner West said he had become educated on this topic through a lot of give and take discussion with the Chairman. He said his district was probably

the most effected by going from 52,310 to 130,474 in population. He said there was continuity of districts and maintains the integrity of the plan. He supported the map provided in the agenda.

Commissioner Ward said that staff developed the map she provided at her

request. She saw no reason why Commissioner Coble would not support her map. She said Chairman Coble's district goes into her district and Commissioner Gurley’s district changed enough that he’s residence is no longer

20

in the district. Commissioner Ward once again, asked that the board consider supporting her proposal.

Commissioner Bryan said that he was satisfied with the original proposal. He

said the new proposal does not appear to be as systematic and takes his district to 103,000 which is significantly below the other districts. He said it seemed to him that the pam it should have been more of a comprehensive plan.

He questioned why a commissioner would support being drawn out of his district. Commissioner Gurley noted his plan to be Lt. Governor.

The motion to adopt the Resolution with the map provided by staff for revising

the residence districts for the Wake County Board of Commissioners was approved with a vote of 5 - 1. Commissioner Ward opposed the motion.
