2 <br />Commissioner Contingency <br />2. At its September 7, 2005 meeting, the Board of County Commissioners approved an <br />appropriation of $1,000 from the Commissioner Contingency account as a contribution to <br />the Ronald Aycock Scholarship Fund. This contribution will help promote the Aycock <br />Scholarship to become one of North Carolina's top educational incentives for attracting <br />bright, committed students to public service in this state. With this appropriation, $19,000 <br />remains available in this contingency account for FY 2005 -06. (See Attachment 1, column <br />#2) <br />Solid Waste Enterprise Fund <br />3. The Solid Waste Department has received notification from officials of the Talking Phone <br />Book of funds totaling $3,000 to pay the department for advertising related directly to <br />phonebook recycling. Radio and print ads will be scheduled in local media reminding <br />residents and businesses to recycle their old phonebooks as the new Talking Phonebooks <br />are distributed. It is the intention of the Talking Phone Book to be environmentally <br />conscious and help ease the impact on the waste stream that the distribution of new <br />phonebooks create. This budget amendment provides for the receipt of these funds in the <br />Solid Waste Enterprise Fund for the above stated purpose. (See Attachment 1, column #3) <br />Criminal Justice Partnership Program <br />4. The Criminal Justice Partnership Program has recently received their FY 2004 -05 fourth <br />quarter reimbursement funds totaling $27,273 from the NC Department of Correction that <br />were not budgeted in FY 05 -06. This program has one remaining contractual program, <br />Project Turn Around, from FY 2004 -05 that will be paid with these funds. This budget <br />amendment provides for the receipt of these State reimbursement funds in FY 2005 -06 for <br />this grant program.
