SUBJECT:
Revision of the Federal Point Fire Rescue Insurance District
BRIEF SUMMARY:
During a recent inspection to lower insurance rates for the Federal Point Fire District, a recommendation was made by the
North Carolina Department of Insurance to realign insurance district boundaries to exclude state and federal properties and
to reflect the maximum five mile allowances as indicated in North Carolina G.S. 153A-233 for Fire Insurance Districts. While
the station was realigned north of Snow's Cut off River Rd. in 2003, the exclusion of state and federal properties will allow
for improvements in the overall rating. The changes in the insurance district will exclude all unincorporated areas south of
Snow's Cut. County staff, Federal Point Fire Department and the Board of Fire Commissioners recommend this change.
Since the advances in technology with Geographical Mapping Systems, a written legal description of the boundaries is no
longer needed. A draft boundary resolution is attached.
RECOMMENDED MOTION AND REQUESTED ACTIONS:
Approved the recommended changes in the Federal Point Fire Insurance District.

SUBJECT:
Award of Bid # 06-0006 and Approval of Contract # 06-0006 to Lifeline Shelter Systems, Inc. for
the Purchase of a Fully Equipped Dental Semi-Trailer in a Negotiated Amount of $422,725.00
BRIEF SUMMARY:
The County Health Department has secured funding through Kate B. Reynolds Grant and a Cape Fear Memorial
Foundation Grant totalling $486,000 to purchase and staff a fully-equipped dental semi-trailer to provide dental services to
children. The Health Department has developed a coordinated plan that involves the New Hanover County School System
as well as the Brunswick County School System and the Brunswick County Health Department. Brunswick County is
providing the cab unit that will pull the semi-trailer and $20,000 for supplies. This unit will have three workstations and will
be able to provide dental care to children through out New Hanover County and Brunswick County.
Formal bids were issued for the purchase of the semi-trailer dental unit. The bid packages were sent to five companies that
specialize in manufacturing mobile medical units. However, only one proposal was received. The proposal received was
from Lifeline Shelter Systems, Inc. at a turn-key price of $468,976.00. If the County makes construction progress
payments, the vendor offered a discount of $9,660.00 resulting in a net price of $459,316.00. However, even this price is
more than the amount allocated to purchase the van. The General Statutes allow negotiations in instances where all bids
received exceed the allocated amount. Therefore, the Health Department met with the vendor and made revisions to the
unit plan which resulted in the final negotiated amount of $422,725.00.
RECOMMENDED MOTION AND REQUESTED ACTIONS:
Adopt resolution awarding bid # 06-0006 and contract # 06-0006 to Lifeline Shelter Systems, Inc. in the negotiated amount
of $422,725.00 and authorizing the Interim County Manager to execute the contract.

BRIEF SUMMARY:
The attached resolution, if approved by the Board, would allow a convenience fee of 3% to be charged by the County for
payments over $250.00 when paid by credit card. Some departments already charge this type of fee and this resolution
would make it uniform across the county. Certain types of charges are limited by law as what fees may be added and this
is addressed in the resolution.

SUBJECT:
Consider Adoption of a Resolution Supporting the Citizen-Soldier Support Program
BRIEF SUMMARY:
The Citizen-Soldier Support Program is funded by the Department of Defense, and was implemented after 9/11 as a
demonstration project. North Carolina is the only state designated for this national demonstration project at this time. It is
designed to create a local, community-centered climate of support for all military personnel and their families. Thus, it
mobilizes community organizations, services, and local government to support and strengthen local citizen-soldiers
(reserves and active duty) and their families.
New Hanover County is also being asked to consider special discounts on admissions to programs such as those you
sponsor, or discounts/waivers of reservation fees for use of facilities, and to have a link on our website, so families can
access internet-based resources. There are approximately 486 reserve personnel residing in New Hanover County.
Consider adoption of the attached resolution to support the Citizen-Soldier Support Program.

SUBJECT:
Wilmington to Wallace Rail Trail
BRIEF SUMMARY:
Since the majority of the Wilmington to Wallace rail line has been abandoned and the ownership has been turned over from
CSX to NCDOT, an excellent opportunity to construct a rail trail along this right of way (ROW) exists. Members of the Cape
Fear Cyclists, the Castle Hayne Community and the Bicycle Advisory Committee have met and discussed possible usage of
this ROW as a multi-use trail. At this time, NCDOT has plans for future rail use along the corridor. Future rail use does not
eliminate the possibility of also using the corridor for a multi-use trail. In fact, there are numerous examples across the
country of trails that share rail corridors and are very popular. Communities typically see considerable economic benefits
where rail trails are present. Of the ROW that is in New Hanover County, only the Castle Hayne portion is in NCDOT
ownership. The Castle Hayne Community Steering Committee would like to utilize a portion of this ROW for a multi-use
trail that would benefit New Hanover County citizens. An attached aerial photo shows the location in the Castle Hayne area.

SUBJECT:
Recommendation for Award of Contract
Upgrade of the Northside Wastewater Treatment Plant
BRIEF SUMMARY:
On August 25, 2005, the City of Wilmington received bids for the upgrade of the James A. Loughlin (North Side)
Wastewater Treatment Plant. The successful low bidder was Crowder Construction Company with a final bid of
$68,522,000 including specific alternates necessary for the project. The City's Engineer, McKim and Creed Engineers, has
recommended a construction contingency of $5,178,000 or 7.5% of the final bid amount and will bring the proposed
construction budget to $73,700,000.
The proposed scope does not include an effluent force main which is necessary to increase the discharge capacity of the
facility. This work will be bid separately and will be brought to the Board at a later date. The estimated cost of the force
main work is approximately six million dollars and will be the responsibility of the County to fund in accordance with the
interlocal agreement for this work.
The total County share is $45,830,856. The current capital project of $3,699,617 must be increased by $42,131,239. This
is accomplished by appropriating $31.1 million of wastewater escrow funds and $11 million of District funds. These funds
($45.8 million) represent 56.3% of the project.
Mr. Tony Boahn, P.E., with McKim and Creed will be available to give a brief presentation and to answer any specific
questions you may have.
RECOMMENDED MOTION AND REQUESTED ACTIONS:
Staff recommends that the Commissioners approve the project and the associated budget amendment.
