22 <br /> Marie McAdoo said she is here on behalf of United Voices of the Efland Cheeks and <br /> the Community, and she said she would like to express thanks to the BOCC for the efforts <br /> made so far in her community. She said the part time employee is a plus for the community; <br /> however, there is disappointment that funds have not been allocated in the CIP to increase the <br /> size of the Efland Cheeks Community Center. She said promises have been made 15 years, <br /> but no action has been taken. She said this community center is the first to have been built by <br /> the community, but the County condemned it. She said the community is committed to <br /> supporting all ages with a variety of educational and recreational programming. She said the <br /> community is willing to work in partnership with the County, and asked if the County would <br /> consider allocating funds in the upcoming budget to improve the center now. <br /> Chair McKee said he has heard similar concerns from Board members, and he <br /> appreciated all that the community had done for this facility. <br /> b.
