A. Bill Lester, LKC Engineering, PLLC
A) Discuss the proposed program amendment for the Rockingham County Community Development Block Grant, CDBG project number 20-V3518, and gather citizen views and comments prior to the submission of the Program Amendment. Rockingham County originally requested Coronavirus funding for the Public Service to benefit low - and moderate - income families by providing subsistence payments for utility rent/mortgage to prevent service disconnection and homelessness. The County partnered with the United Way of Rockingham County and provided assistance to eligible applicants. The County is now requesting an amendment to allow for the remaining grant funds to be used to provide sidewalk and pedestrian improvements. Attached is the Project Budget Revision Form which outlines the revised budget. If approved, the amendment for the CDBG CV project (20-V-3518): Coronavirus Program will provide for pedestrian improvements which will connect the Town of Mayodan downtown area to the Recreational Center. The proposed improvements will include new sidewalks and/or an upgrade to existing sidewalks along US 220 Business and Main Street. The CDBG grant program requires the project serve at least 51 % low/moderate income (LMT) persons. There are a few LMllocations to the Rockingham County area. The amended project will benefit 52.40% low/moderate income persons based on the 2016-2020 American Community Survey for the Town of Mayodan effective August 1, 2024. Therefore, this project does meet the LMI requirement of the CDBG program.

3. PLEDGE OF ALLEGIANCE - Emma Kate Hall, rising 6th grader, Rockingham Middle School

4. APPROVAL OF JUNE 17,2024 AGENDA

5. CONSENT AGENDA (Consent items as follows will be adopted with a single motion, second and vote, unless a request for removal from the Consent Agenda is heard from a Commissioner)

A) Captain Jennifer Brown

1. Approval- Accept $473,002.00 for NCDPS grant awarded to the Jail to establish a MAT (Medication Assisted Treatment) Program. This grant was approved due to the Jail meeting priority criteria established by the NC General Assembly in accordance with S.L. 2021-80. The grant will allow for the purchase of medication for inmate treatments only and the funds should be available soon after July I, 2024.

2. Approval - Request to move funds from Jail-Lapse Salaries to Inmate Medical to cover expected shortage for remainder of FY 23/24. The Over Cost Pool Limit (OCP) for Southern Health Partners for April was higher than the previous months due to two inmates with serious medical conditions that required hospitalization which resulted in an invoice that was almost quadruple the previous month's cost. Because of this, the budget line may fall short for May and June's OCP invoices. The OCP cost is determined by the amount of medical services needed, therefore we are asking for $30,000 to be moved to get us through the remainder of FY 23/24.

B) Pat Galloway, Director of Financial Services

1. Approval - Increase Emergency Management budget $3,000 for NC Dept. of Public Safety Tier II Grant award. Funds are to expand hazardous materials emergency preparedness programs through responsive planning, training and related exercises.

2. Approval - Increase Engineering and Public Buildings budget $250 for road sign fees collected in May 2024.

3. Approval - Action on the previously approved Rockingham County Schools 2024 and 2025 debt funded projects:

• Approve Reimbursement Resolution. The funding plan includes covering 2024 project costs with restricted sales tax dollars until bids have been received on the majority of the 2025 projects. We cannot obtain state approval for debt issuance until the majority of costs are known. This resolution will enable the county to reimburse with debt proceeds.

• Adopt Capital Project Ordinance for the Schools 2024 and 2025 debt funded projects.

• Approved the budget amendment to appropriate funding in the School Capital Project Fund.

1. Approval- Appropriate $15,000 of available fund balance in the 125 Employee Plan Internal Service Fund to cover estimated expenditures through fiscal year end. This fund collects and remits the employee elected dependent care and medical reimbursement deductions.

2. Approval-Increase Health Insurance fund $775,000 to cover estimated expenditures through June 30, 2024. Claims costs are trending higher than estimated in the current budget. Revenues estimated to be available to cover this increase include: Increase in Charges to Other Funds. General Fund and Water & Sewer Fund budget the full health insurance cost for all benefit eligible positions; however, the Health Insurance Fund budgets only the amount of revenue estimated to be processed through payroll based on filled positions. There is no change in the General Fund or Water & Sewer Fund for this Item. Rx Rebates and Interest Earnings are projected higher based on actual activity to date.

C) Justin Thacker, Deputy Finance Director

Approval- Appropriate $770,000 to construct T-Hangar Taxi lanes for the addition of T-Hanger's. The Airport was awarded a State Transportation Improvement Program (STlP) grant on May I, 2024 by the NC Board of Transportation. This program is designed to fund projects on a State and Federal-mandated plan that is oversaw by NCDOT and the project funding has been awarded at 100%. There is no County dollars involved in this project.

D) Todd Hurst, Tax Administrator

Approval - Tax Collection and Reconciliation Reports for May including refunds for May 22, 2024 thru June 4, 2024.

E) Susan O. Washburn, Clerk to the Board

Approval - Regular Meeting minutes

F) Jason Brooks, Emergency Management Coordinator

1. Approval - Adopt the Statewide Mutual Aid Agreement.

2. Approval - Resolution authorizing the conveyance of surplus decontamination trailer to Caswell County.

G) Leigh Cockram, Director Rockingham County Center for Economic Development, Small Business and Tourism

Approval - Requesting transfer from general fund to increase the amount for line for Nestle' Purina and move unused funds from Ontex line for increased incentive. Increased tax revenue above the estimated amount.

H) Christie Watkins, Soil & Water Conservation

5. CONSENT AGENDA (Consent items as follows will be adopted with a single motion, second and vote, unless a request for removal from the Consent Agenda is heard from a Commissioner)

A) Pat Galloway, Director of Financial Services
1. Approval - Adoption of Resolution to Establish Materiality Threshold for Recognition of Subscription-Based Information Technology Arrangements ("SBITAs") Under GASB Statement No. 96. With the new requirement to record Right to Use Assets for Subscriptions, we are requesting the Board to adopt this Resolution in order to set a materiality threshold that mirrors our capitalization threshold for all other capital assets. This will provide us the ability to only record SBITAs that equal or exceed $2,500 as an Asset. We consider asset costs lower than $2,500 to be immaterial to the County's overall financial statement presentation.

1. Approval- Increase Juvenile Detention budget $225,000 to cover cost projected the remainder of FY 2024. Comparing prior year invoices to current year invoices received to date, it appears the increase in the number of days detained has drastically increased costs. Other factors include a $15 per day fee increase as of7/1/2023 and the average number of juveniles detained increasing over the prior year.

2. Approval - Increase Animal Shelter budget $4,026 for donation received. Donated funds are to be used to cover the cost of emergency surgery that occurred in June 2023.

3. Approval- Increase Animal Shelter budget $303 for donations received.
