On July 19, 1988, the Board of Commissioners approved the <br /> acceptance of a grant from the Governor's Crime <br /> Commission. This grant will be administered by the <br /> Orange. County Department of Social Services and will <br /> support a treatment program for child sexual abuse <br /> victims in Orange and Chatham Counties. The total amount <br /> of the grant is $34,650.

This amendment will increase the <br /> Department on Aging's Vehicle Repair account and increase <br /> appropriate revenues. <br /> 3.
