Water and Sewer Projects: • Buckhorn EDD — Efland Sewer to Mebane, Phase 2 Extension A motion was made by Commissioner Rich, seconded by Commissioner Burroughs to accept the FY2017-22 Capital Investment Plan and Approve the Intent to Adopt Capital Funding for FY2017-18 on coral sheet. VOTE: UNANIMOUS 3. FY2017-18 Annual Operating Budget Decision Items Paul Laughton said that which the BOCC decides now will determine what staff puts in the resolution of intent to adopt. He said officially, approving the amendments for the operating budget and a decision on funding for the CHCCS and OCS would be the next discussion. He said in regards to the $2.1 million, the decision would be as to how to direct those funds. Commissioner Burroughs asked if funds for the schools have to be directed. Paul Laughton said it has to be done by purpose or function, which is normally by current expense, that goes against the per pupil, or recurring capital. Commissioner Jacobs asked if it has to be done this way. Paul Laughton said there is some funding outside of those categories, such as nurses, and school resource officers (SRO). Commissioner Jacobs asked if the BOCC does not want to make a practice of spending one-time funds, but is in fact spending one-time funds, can the BOCC make a line item of"one-time funds." Paul Laughton said that is at the discretion of the Board, and under the statutes it must be by purpose or function, and he thinks Commissioner Jacobs' suggestion could be achieved by "purpose". Bonnie Hammersley said a precedent was set when the health and safety contracts were completed, and she would recommend the Board do another purpose called "one-time funding". Commissioner Burroughs said she agrees that the Board can do this, and her only caveat is that it is split by ADM. A motion was made by Commissioner Burroughs, seconded by Commissioner Jacobs for the County to add a category called one-time funding, and split by ADM the amount of$2.1 million to the schools.
