Whitted, Chairman <br /> Orange County Board of Commissioners <br /> 128 West Union Street <br /> Hillsborough, NC ?7278 <br /> Dear Mr. Whitted: <br /> I an pleased to announce that Orange • County has been awarded $4,219 <br /> in matching funds under the North Carolina Land Records Management Program. Your <br /> application requesting fiends defined a program of land records improvements that <br /> will benefit the county's operation and your taxpayers. <br /> With 28 counties requesting grants amounting to almost $2 million against only <br /> $334,532 in available appropriations, it was necessary to scale—down the requests <br /> according to an impartial and equitable formula. The figures for the recommended <br /> _ grant awards were obtained by prorating the $334,532 among all applicants accord- <br /> ing to. their documented eligibility for funding over the next fiscal year only. <br /> In addition, the amounts thus obtained were modified by the imposition of a <br /> "ceiling" of $20,000 per county and a "floor" of $1,000 or 50% of the requested <br /> grant, whichever was less. <br /> Attached hereto are fear (/t) copies of the LRMP Grant Agreement covering your <br /> grant award to be signed and' returned to this office. This Agreement states the <br /> rules and regulations that govern the funding of the state matching grant for your <br /> project. When signed by the proper county officials and returned to Donald P. <br /> Holloway, Director; N. C. Land Records Management Program, 116 West Jones Street, <br /> Raleigh, N. C. 27611, your decision to accept this grant will be formally recorded. <br /> Agreements not returned signed by October 22, 1982, will be deemed to have been <br /> turned down, and those funds will be redistributed to all other counties accepting <br /> their grant awards. <br /> As usual, whenigrants are made to counties, audits are required for the work <br /> performed under the agreement. Your county will also be required to send a quar <br /> terly report to the LRMP offices which will address all activities that are <br /> involved in the administration of this grant. <br /> We hope that the grant funds will help you to continue the excellent program <br /> which your county has undertaken. <br /> Sincerely, <br /> ane S. Patterson <br /> ISP/nv <br /> • <br /> • <br /> ' I <br /> } <br />
