DISCUSSION/ADJUSTMENT/APPROVAL OF AGENDA:
A motion was made by Commissioner Kendrick and carried 5-0 to approve the
agenda.

County Manager, Heidi York stated a total of 8 positions were frozen and remain
unfilled noting only critical public safety or revenue generating, self-supporting positions
have been filled since February 2015.

vehicle to be purchased, if reinstated.

Includes SUV ($30,391), vehicle upfit ($1,409), training/cell phone ($1,885)
**Env. Health- Env. Health Specialist - $(57,922) +$ (30,881) = $ (88,803)
Includes truck ($29,361), training/cell phone ($1,520)
Commissioner Clayton advocated for both the Inspections and Env. Health positons
to be reinstated noting they are important for business.
The Board heard from departmental directors, Sam Hobgood, Inspections Director
and Janet Clayton, Health Director related to the impacts of the frozen positions.
Ms. Clayton stated impacts would include decreased revenues for pump
inspections, more staff time to interpret data and turnaround time would extend from one
to two weeks. Ms. Clayton suggested the position, if reinstated, to be effective September
1 to correlate with the fall training schedule. Ms. Clayton noted the contingency plan for
more than anticipated inspections and site evaluations would be to contract with a third
party, i.e. another county.
Mr. Hobgood stated with one inspector position vacant, the impact has resulted in
more inspections for the other inspectors, i.e. from 12-15 to 22-25 per day. Mr. Hobgood
noted that in addition to field inspections, there are impacts to plan review turnaround time.
Mr. Hobgood stated turnaround time is the biggest issue. Commissioner Kendrick asked
Mr. Hobgood if a 48-hour turnaround is possible to which he replied affirmatively.
2. Person County Schools
County Manager, Heidi York gave the Board the following handout that noted the
County Manager Recommendation for Schools Current Expense.
Commissioner Kendrick stated opposition to the inclusion of driver’s education as
a county function. Ms. York updated the Board that the House of Representatives has
proposed to reinstate the driver’s education back into the state budget; the Senate has yet
to approve the proposal.
The charter schools’ appropriation is recommended to be increased by $90K.
Assistant County Manager, Sybil Tate told the group that there are 1,090 students enrolled
at both Roxboro Community School and Bethel Hill Charter School.

3. Person Industries/Person County Recycling Center
Vice Chairman Newell voiced his concerns related to Person Industries (PI) and the
Person County Recycling Center’s (PCRC) reliance on the County General Fund to sustain
its operations. Adjustments were made in the budget as follows:
• Transfer from the General Fund to PCRC is $152,552, an $84,307 increase from
FY15. This increase is due to a rate decrease in State money from Cardinal
Innovations for training individuals with disabilities (-$45K), funding for a merger
study ($7,500) and funding for a household hazardous waste day ($12K)
• Transfer from the General Fund to PI is $563,325 or $238,772 more than FY15.
This increase is due to the loss of revenues from Bee-line’s closing (-$40,000) and
an increase for temp employees ($391,000) due to Obamacare and an increase in
the Eaton contract
Ms. Becky Clayton, Person Industries’ Director stated its programs are seeing a
decrease from Cardinal Innovations for training as well as decrease in revenues in recycling
due the markets being low at this time. Ms. Clayton stated the in-house business, Bee-Line
Designs, is closing and staff will reevaluate contracts when termed. Ms. Clayton confirmed
she offered up the two frozen positions to be cut from the budget for a savings of $78,000.
Ms. Clayton stated once the two facilities are merged into one building, she expects
expenses to be reduced as well as increase funding for a higher ratio of clients served. Ms.
Clayton stated there are currently 90 consumers and 25 staff at both locations.
Vice Chairman Newell told the group he has looked into an automated system
through Van Dyke Services to increase efficiency at PCRC and asked Ms. Clayton to join
in a meeting to be scheduled.

4. Volunteer Fire Department Capital Funding
County Manager, Heidi York reminded the Board that a Capital Funding Program
budget has been created for capital purchases only for the volunteer fire departments and
rescue noting the intent is for the requests to be submitted to the County Fire Inspector to
verify compatibility. Finance Director, Amy Wehrenberg stated if the County purchases
the items, the county is eligible to get the sales tax refunded. Ms. York asked the Board
what amount from the Revolving Loan Fund budget which has a current balance of
$181,256 should be transfered to the Capital Funding Program for FY 2015-2016.
Vice Chairman Newell asked Ms. Wehrenberg if the volunteer fire departments and
rescue had to be bonded to receive county funds. Ms. Wehrenberg was not sure if bonding
was required or if they were already bonded.
5. Summary of Adjustments to the Recommended Budget
There were no summary of adjustments to the Recommended Budget.
County Manager, Heidi York informed the Board of additional requests submitted
to the Board of Commissioners which included Judge Galloway’s request for an
appropriation of $10,000 toward the costs for Drug Court and the Chamber of Commerce’s
Personality event request for $3,000.
Commissioner Jeffers stated his desire to return the $7,200 that was deducted from
the Senior Center’s appropriation for rent to be restored.
Vice Chairman Newell stated the County pays $1.3M in rents and suggested
evaluation of the leases.

AGENDA ABSTRACT
Meeting Date: June 15, 2015
Agenda Title: Letter of Support and Resolution to Maintain and Support the
Reauthorization of the Land Water Conservation Fund Equitable Treatment of the State
Assistance Program,
Summary of Information:
The Person County Recreation Advisory Board unanimously voted their approval to support the
North Carolina Recreation and Parks Association (NCRPA) and the National Recreation and Parks
Associations (NRPA) efforts the encourage the Federal Government the reauthorization of the
Land Water Conservation Trust Fund (LWCF). The Recreation Advisory Board recognizes that
the LWCF have been a great asset to Person County in that $139,591.73 of federal dollars have
funded local projects such as The Huck Sansbury Recreation Complex; Hyco Lake Project I, Hyco
Lake Project II, Hyco Lake Project III since 1967 with the latest completed in August 28, 1989.
Recommended Action:
Vote to adopt a Person County Resolution and a letter of support for the NCRPA and the NRPA’s
efforts for LWCF reauthorization.

The Honorable Mark Walker
United States House of Representatives
312 Cannon House Office Building
Washington DC, 20515
Dear Congressman Walker,
It was 50 years ago that Congress passed the Land and Water Conservation Fund
(LWCF) Act, an epic bipartisan measure that has provided urban and rural outdoor
recreation opportunities for all Americans. With your support, the Act will be
reauthorized beyond September 2015. We are asking you to support the return to fairness
and equity with the States during this reauthorization.
The LWCF is funded by drilling leases in the Outer Continental Shelf (OCS) and is based
on the premise that the extraction of one natural resource (gas and oil) should provide
funding for protecting other natural resources in perpetuity. While revenues from OCS
leases have continued to rise, funding for conservation, especially at the state and local
levels, has been low and unpredictable.
When originally authorized in 1964, the LWCF specified 60% of funding would go to the
State Assistance Program where it could support parks and open space in the
communities you represent. Over the years, language specifying the State Assistance
share has been removed. However, language was included specifying the Federal
program shall receive a minimum of 40% of funds provided. As a result, since 1988,
only 12% of the total appropriated LWCF dollars have gone to the State Assistance
Program.
24
Page Two
June 15, 2015
The State Assistance Program leverages private, state and local funds and fosters
partnerships between all levels of government. The program serves as one of the most
efficient uses of federal resources as states and local communities often surpass the dollar
for dollar matching funds requirement.
We need all levels of parks – national, state and local. However, states and local
communities provide the best access to affordable, close-to-home, outdoor recreation
opportunities in North Carolina. Conservation efforts and efforts to get Americans
physically active must take place at the local level and will require more dedicated
resources to LWCF’s State Assistance Program. For instance in Person County, LWCF
has funded $139,591.73 in federal funding leveraged with local dollar-for-dollar match
for projects such as The Huck Sansbury Recreation Complex; Hyco Lake Project I, Hyco
Lake Project II, and Hyco Lake Project III.
While significant strides have been made through past LWCF funding, in North Carolina
there still remains over $1 billion of unmet needs for outdoor recreation as determined by
the National Park Service. For these reasons, I am requesting you support reauthorization
of LWCF and ensure a minimum of 40% guaranteed for the State Assistance Program to
support parks in NC.
Your support is critical to carry forward the visionary legacy of the Land and Water
Conservation Fund.
Sincerely,
Kyle Puryear, Chairman
Person County Board of Commissioners

A RESOLUTION TO MAINTAIN AND SUPPORT THE REAUTHORIZATION OF THE LAND
WATER CONSERVATION FUND (LWCF) EQUITABLE TREATMENT OF THE STATE ASSISTANCE PROGRAM
WHEREAS, in 1964, the Land and Water Conservation Fund (LWCF) was enacted to help preserve,
develop and ensure access to outdoor recreation facilities for the purpose of strengthening the health of
U.S. citizens; and
WHEREAS, over the past 50 years the Land and Water Conservation Fund Act has established one of the
most successful federal/state and local partnerships in history, which stimulated hundreds of millions of
dollars from private, local and state sources matching dollar-for-dollar federal funds for outdoor
recreation projects; and
WHEREAS, the State of North Carolina and its local governments have experienced the LWCF State
Assistance Program’s success with $80 million in LWCF assistance to develop more than 890 state and
local projects covering 97 counties in the state; and
WHEREAS, Person County has experienced the LWCF State Assistance Program’s success, first-hand,
with $139,591.73 in federal funding leveraged dollar-for-dollar with local projects such as The Huck
Sansbury Recreation Complex; Hyco Lake Project I, Hyco Lake Project II, Hyco Lake Project III; and
WHEREAS, lands used for LWCF State Assistance projects must remain in recreational use in perpetuity,
thereby protecting outdoor recreation opportunities for future generations of the citizens of Person
County; and
WHEREAS, the LWCF is budget neutral, having been authorized with a dedicated funding source of
Outer Continental Shelf (OCS) offshore oil and gas leasing revenues and in 2013, OCS revenues totaled
over $9 billion; and
WHEREAS, when the LWCF Act was passed by Congress its primary purpose was to provide outdoor
recreation for Americans in close to home locations, guaranteeing that sixty percent (60%) of the Act’s
funds were to be dedicated to the states and territories; and
WHEREAS, the LWCF Act was later amended to eliminate the sixty percent (60%) guarantee for the
state’s LWCF shares, though, with guarantees of not less than forty percent (40%) of annual
appropriations for federal LWCF project purposes; and
WHEREAS, since 1988, only twelve percent (12%) of the total appropriated LWCF dollars have gone to
the State Assistance Program; and
WHEREAS, the Land and Water Conservation Fund Act will expire in September, 2015, and assessments
by the National Park Service show significant unmet needs for outdoor recreation in state, local and
urban areas, including over $1 billion in unmet needs in North Carolina; and
26
WHEREAS, Person County strongly supports reauthorizing LWCF State Assistance funding to enable
planning, acquisition, development and rehabilitation of outdoor recreation facilities and opportunities
at the state, local and urban level; and
NOW, THEREFORE, BE IT RESOLVED, the Person County Board of Commissioners support the
reauthorization of the Land and Water Conservation Fund including full, permanent funding with fair
and equitable treatment for the State Assistance Program of no less than a minimum of forty percent
(40%) guaranteed funding for the Stateside Assistance Account.
Adopted this 1st day of June, 2015.

PERSON COUNTY
VFD AND RESCUE
CAPITAL RESERVE PROGRAM
What is it and how does it work?
• Offers additional source of funding to VFD’s & Rescue Squad for vehicle/equipment capital
with no payback requirement; allocated on a pro-rata basis
• Eligible for purchases/repairs of capital equipment that are non-recurring in nature; does
not cover recurring operating costs (i.e. overhead, office supplies, furniture). [See next
page for complete list of eligible and non-eligible items].
• Approved funding for first year
o One-half of the existing balance in the Revolving Loan Program Fund for Small
Business Loans ($90,625)
o Funding to be determined as available for all years thereafter or until program is
terminated
• Funds are appropriated similar to the operational funds (based on # of stations in each fire
district) and become part of the County’s adopted budget.
• Remaining funds from less than 100% requested expenditures will roll forward to the
following year, to be added to any Board approved funds.
Benefits and Advantages:
• Flexibility to plan ahead for larger capital needs, as well as address their most critical needs
per year
• Prevents a department from waiting 5+ years for capital support (old Capital Rotation
Program)
• Buying Power: County to make approved purchases from agency’s capital appropriation,
securing possible discounts from bulk ordering and netting out the sales tax as county
governments are authorized to do
• Equipment Compatibility: purchasing same brand and type of items that can be used at an
event by all responding agencies
• Provides agencies with control in their requests to prevent exceeding required thresholds
set by the State for grant opportunities
• Can contribute to lowering fire insurance rating, reducing the homeowner’s insurance cost
for residents in those districts
50
Request & Approval Process:
• Fire and rescue agencies submit capital expenditure requests at specified times during the
fiscal year to Fire Inspector for amounts up to their approved capital budget.
• Fire Inspector reviews and determines if capital expenditures are eligible costs; completes
necessary forms and submits to the Finance Office for payment.
• After equipment is delivered, County donates the equipment to the requesting agency.
• Fire Inspector submits a summary of capital expenditures incurred by agency to the Board
of Commissioners on an annual basis for reporting purposes and evaluation of the program.
Types of purchases eligible for capital funding:
• Emergency vehicles
• Emergency vehicle apparatus
• Emergency service equipment
• Emergency protective equipment
• Maintenance and repair costs for emergency vehicles/equipment
• Grant match for capital item
• One-time payment on new or existing loan for capital item
• Loan down-payment for capital expenditures (exception: not to be associated with
any loan program that may be established with the County)
Types of purchases ineligible for capital funding:
• Recurring operating costs (i.e. utilities, maintenance agreements, dues, fundraising
supplies, fuel, travel, office supplies, furniture, facility maintenance)
• Vehicles or equipment used for general purposes or that may be considered for
personal use;
• Construction projects or facility improvements;
• Equipment related to facilities such as meeting halls, social rooms, etc.
• Projects in which any director, officer, general manager, or supervisory employee of
Person County, or close relative thereof, has a financial interest; projects in which
any subsidiary or affiliated organization of Person County has a financial interest; or
projects which, based on the judgment of the Board, would create a conflict of
interest, potential for conflict of interest, or any appearance of a conflict of interest.

AGENDA ABSTRACT
Meeting Date: 06/15/2015
Agenda Title: Proposed Person County Board of Health Rule-
“Rules Prohibiting the Use of Tobacco Products, Including E-
Cigarettes, in County/Municipal Buildings and on Health
Department and Social Services Grounds”
Summary of Information: Due to health risks of tobacco use and exposure to e-cigarette
aerosol, the Person County Board Health wishes to minimize the harmful effects of tobacco
use among county and municipal employees and those individuals who enter government
facilities. On May 18, 2015, the Person County Board of Health in consultation with Ron
Aycock, County Attorney, has developed the aforementioned Rule which will prohibit the
use of tobacco products including e-cigarettes in all County and Municipal buildings and
within 35 linear feet of a building which houses the health department and social services.
Recommended Action: Take action in support of the proposed Person County Board of
Health Rule which will prohibit the use of tobacco products
including e-cigarettes in both county and municipal buildings
and within 35 linear feet of a building which houses the health
department and social services.

DRAFT
Person County Board of Health
RULES PROHIBITING THE USE OF TOBACCO PRODUCTS, INCLUDING E-
CIGARETTES, IN COUNTY/MUNICIPAL BUILDINGS AND ON HEALTH
DEPARTMENT AND SOCIAL SERVICES GROUNDS
WHEREAS, in 2009, the United States Food and Drug Administration (FDA) announced that an
analysis of e-cigarette samples indicated that the e-cigarettes contained not only nicotine but also
detectable levels of known carcinogens and toxic chemicals, including tobacco-specific
nitrosamines and diethylene glycol, a toxic chemical used in antifreeze;1 and
WHEREAS, in 2015, the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) stated that emitted
e-cigarette aerosol is not just water vapor, but contains nicotine and can contain additional
toxins, making it less safe than clean air and e-cigarette use has the potential to involuntarily
expose children and adolescents, pregnant women, and non-users to aerosolized nicotine and, if
the products are altered, to other psychoactive substances. Therefore, clean air—free of both
smoke and e-cigarette aerosol—remains the standard to protect health;2 and
WHEREAS, because some e-cigarettes are designed to mimic smoking, allowing e-cigarette use
in places where smoking is prohibited could complicate enforcement of smoke free policies and
renormalize tobacco use;3 and
WHEREAS, tobacco use is a recognized carcinogen in humans, and health risks associated with
the use of tobacco products include myocardial infarction, stroke, and adverse reproductive
outcomes;
WHEREAS, the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention reports that smokeless tobacco use
is associated with many health problems including: nicotine addiction, cancer of the mouth,
esophagus and pancreas, diseases of the mouth, risks for early delivery and stillbirth when used
during pregnancy and increased risk for death from heart disease and stroke.
WHEREAS, the Person County Board of Health wishes to minimize the harmful effects of
tobacco use among county and municipal employees.

WHEREAS, the Person County Board of Health provides support to employees and residents who
want to quit the use of tobacco products. Employees and residents are also encouraged to talk to their
health care provider about quitting, ask about appropriate pharmacotherapy available through their
health insurance plan or employee’s insurer, and to use the free quitting support services of the North
Carolina Tobacco Use Quitline at 1-800-QUIT-NOW (1-800-784-8669); and
WHEREAS, the Board of Health of Person County recognizes the health risks of tobacco use
and exposure to e-cigarette aerosol and determines that the purpose of this rule regulating use of
tobacco products is to minimize the harmful effects of tobacco use among staff and the public
and eliminate secondhand aerosol exposure for staff and the public in those buildings controlled
by Person County and the City of Roxboro as well as the grounds surrounding the Public Health
and Social Services Departments;
Now, therefore the Person County Board of Public Health enacts:

PERMITTED IN THIS BUILDING. If a sign includes the international “No Use of Tobacco
Products” symbol (which consists of a pictorial representation of a burning cigarette,
smokeless tobacco can, and e-cigarette enclosed in a red circle with a red bar across it), it
must also include written text explaining the prohibition.
(c) Persons in charge of buildings identified in Section 2 must determine whether signs should
be posted in languages other than English.
