In the case of any optional or extraordinary redemption or any purchase and cancellation of Series 2011 Bonds, the Trustee shall apply as a credit against the required Sinking Fund Account deposits with respect to such Term Bonds the amount of such Term Bonds in such order as the County, upon the direction of the Corporation, elects in writing prior to such optional or extraordinary redemption or purchase and cancellation or, if no election is made, in the inverse order thereof. The Trustee shall cancel all such Series 2011 Bonds purchased pursuant to this Section 301(C). Section 302. Notice of Redemption; Selection of Series 2011 Bonds for Redemption; and Cancellation. (A) Not less than thirty (30) days but not more than sixty (60) days before the redemption date of any Series 2011 Bonds, whether such redemption be in whole or in part, the Trustee shall cause a notice of any redemption signed by the Trustee to be mailed, postage prepaid, to all Holders owning Series 2011 Bonds to be redeemed in whole or in part provided that notice to the Securities Depository shall be sent in accordance with the Securities Depository's policies and procedures. Failure to mail any such notice to any Holder or any defect in any notice so mailed shall not affect the validity of the proceedings for the redemption of the Series 2011 Bonds of any other Holders to whom notice was properly given. Each such notice shall set forth: the CUSIP numbers and bond certificate numbers of the Series 2011 Bonds to be redeemed, the interest rate of the Series 2011 Bonds to be redeemed, the Date of Original Issuance of the Series 2011 Bonds to be redeemed, the Redemption Date, the Redemption Price to be paid, the maturities of the Series 2011 Bonds to be redeemed and, in the case of Series 2011 Bonds to be redeemed in part only, the portion of the principal amount thereof to be redeemed, the address and telephone number of the Trustee, the date of the redemption notice, and that on the Redemption Date the Series 2011 Bonds called for redemption will be payable at the principal corporate trust office of the Trustee, that from that date interest will cease to accrue and be payable and that no representation is made as to the accuracy or correctness of the CUSIP numbers printed therein or on the Series 2011 Bonds. If any Series 2011 Bond is to be redeemed in part only, the notice of redemption shall state also that on or after the Redemption Date, upon 16 Board of Commissioners Meeting 08/15/2011 6 -1 -20 surrender of such Series 2011 Bond, a new Series 2011 Bond in principal amount equal to the unredeemed portion of such Series 2011 Bond will be issued. Any notice of redemption, except a notice of redemption in respect of a mandatory sinking fund redemption, at the direction of the Corporation, may state that the redemption to be effected is conditioned upon the receipt by the Trustee on or prior to the Redemption Date of moneys sufficient to pay the principal of and premium, if any, and interest on the Series 2011 Bonds or portions thereof to be redeemed, and if such moneys are not so received, such notice shall be of no force or effect and such Series 2011 Bonds shall not be required to be redeemed. In the event that such notice contains such a condition and moneys sufficient to pay the principal of and premium, if any, and interest on such Series 2011 Bonds are not received by the Trustee on or prior to the Redemption Date, the redemption shall not be made, and the Trustee shall within a reasonable time thereafter give notice, in the manner in which the notice of redemption was given, that such moneys were not so received. In addition, at least 30 days before the Redemption Date, such notice shall be given by first class mail, postage prepaid, to the Local Government Commission. Neither failure to give any such notice nor any defect in any such notice so given to the Local Government Commission shall affect the sufficiency of the proceedings for the redemption of such Series 2011 Bonds. Notice of redemption of Series 2011 Bonds shall be given by the Trustee, at the expense of the Corporation, for and on behalf of the County. (B) The Series 2011 Bonds shall be redeemed only in Authorized Denominations. If less than all the Series 2011 Bonds are called for redemption, the Series 2011 Bonds of each maturity to be so redeemed shall be called for redemption in the manner set forth in a certificate of the Corporation filed with the Trustee. If less than all of the Series 2011 Bonds of any one maturity are to be called for redemption, the Trustee shall select the Series 2011 Bonds of each such maturity to be redeemed by lot, each $5,000 portion of principal being counted as one Series 2011 Bond for this purpose; provided, however, that so long as the only Owner of the Series 2011 Bonds is a Securities Depository Nominee, such selection shall be made by the Securities Depository by lot in accordance with its operating rules and procedures. (C) If less than all of a Series 2011 Bond is selected for redemption, the Owner thereof shall present and surrender such Series 2011 Bond to the Trustee for payment of the principal amount thereof so called for redemption, and the redemption premium, if any, on such principal amount, and the County shall, if necessary, execute and the Trustee shall authenticate and deliver to or upon the order of such Owner, without charge, for the unredeemed portion of the principal amount of the Series 2011 Bond so surrendered, a new Series 2011 Bond of the same maturity and designation, bearing interest at the same rate of any Authorized Denominations. (D) Series 2011 Bonds presented and surrendered in accordance with the provisions of this Section shall be canceled upon the surrender thereof. (E) On or before the date upon which Series 2011 Bonds are to be redeemed, the County shall deposit, or cause to be deposited, with the Trustee money or Defeasance 17 Board of Commissioners Meeting 08/15/2011 6 -1 -21 Obligations, or a combination of both, that will be sufficient to pay on the Redemption Date the Redemption Price of, and interest accruing on, the Series 2011 Bonds or portions thereof to be redeemed on such Redemption Date. On the Redemption Date, notice having been given in the manner and under the conditions hereinabove provided, the Series 2011 Bonds or portions thereof called for redemption shall be due and payable at the Redemption Price provided therefor, plus accrued interest to such date (except in the case of a conditional redemption authorized by Section 302(A) if moneys are not so available), and if moneys sufficient to pay the Redemption Price of the Series 2011 Bonds or portions thereof to be redeemed plus accrued interest thereon to the Redemption Date are held by the Trustee in trust for the owners of the Series 2011 Bonds or portions thereof to be redeemed, interest on the Series 2011 Bonds or portions thereof called for redemption shall cease to accrue on such Redemption Date; such Series 2011 Bonds or portions thereof shall cease to be entitled to any benefits or security under the Bond Order or this Series Resolution or to be deemed Outstanding; and the owners of such Series 2011 Bonds or portions thereof shall have no rights in respect thereof except to receive payment of the Redemption Price thereof, plus accrued interest to the Redemption Date. ARTICLE IV. APPLICATION OF SERIES 2011 BOND PROCEEDS Section 401. Deposit of Funds. (A) The net proceeds from the sale of the Series 2011 Bonds shall be applied as follows: (i) To the Trustee the Redemption Price of the Series 1999 Bonds, less the amount available from existing debt service funds, to be paid to the Holders of the Series 1999 Bonds; and (ii) The balance of the proceeds shall be deposited to the Expense Fund to pay the costs of issuance of the Series 2011 Bonds. Section 402. Expense Fund. The County shall establish with the Trustee a separate fund to be known as the "Expense Fund —New Hanover Regional Medical Center — Series 2011" (the "Expense Fund "). Amounts on deposit in the Expense Fund shall be disbursed upon the written request of the Corporation and the County for the payment of expenses for any recording, trustee's and depository's fees and expenses, accounting and legal fees, financing costs, and other fees and expenses incurred or to be incurred by or on behalf of the County or the Corporation in connection with or incident to the issuance and sale of the Series 2011 Bonds and the refunding of the outstanding Series 1999 Bonds. At such time as the Trustee is furnished with a written notice of the Corporation stating that all such fees and expenses have been paid, the Trustee shall, upon the written request of the Corporation, transfer any moneys remaining in the Expense Fund to the Interest Account and the Trustee shall close the Expense Fund. 18 Board of Commissioners Meeting 08/15/2011 6 -1 -22 ARTICLE V. SECURITY; FUNDS AND ACCOUNTS Section 501. Security for the Series 2011 Bonds.

Section 502. Establishment of Funds and Accounts.

Section 503. Principal Account. On or prior to three Business Days next preceding each October 1, the Trustee shall deposit in the Principal Account, beginning on the date set forth in the Issuance, Sale and Closing Certificate, such amounts as shall be sufficient to make full and timely payments of the principal of all Serial Bonds due on the next ensuing October 1; provided, however, that no deposit pursuant to this paragraph need be made to the extent that there is a sufficient amount already on deposit in the Principal Account for that purpose. If sufficient funds to make the transfers described in this Section 503 are not available in the Bond Fund on the third Business Day preceding each October 1, the Trustee will give Immediate Notice thereof to the County, Corporation and the Local Government Commission, promptly confirmed in writing. Section 504. Interest Account. On or prior to three Business Days next preceding each Interest Payment Date, the Trustee shall deposit in the Interest Account an amount which will be equal to the interest to become due on the Series 2011 Bonds on such Interest Payment Date; provided, however, that no deposit pursuant to this paragraph need be made to the extent that there is a sufficient amount already on deposit in the Interest Account for that purpose. If sufficient funds to make the transfers described in this Section 504 are not available in the Bond Fund on the third Business Day preceding an Interest Payment Date, the Trustee will give Immediate Notice thereof to the County and the Corporation, promptly confirmed in writing.

No such deposit need be made, however, to the extent that there is a sufficient amount already on deposit and available for such purpose in the Sinking Fund Account to be applied to such next maturity or mandatory Sinking Fund Account redemption payment. If sufficient funds to make 19 Board of Commissioners Meeting 08/15/2011 6 -1 -23 the transfers to the Sinking Fund Account described in this Section 505 are not available on the third Business Day preceding any Maturity Date or mandatory Sinking Fund Account Redemption Date, the Trustee will give Immediate Notice thereof to the County and the Corporation.

In lieu of such mandatory Sinking Fund Account redemption, the Trustee shall, at the written request of the Corporation, purchase for cancellation an equal principal amount of Series 2011 Bonds of the Series and maturity to be redeemed in the open market identified by the Corporation at prices specified by the Corporation not exceeding the principal amount of the Series 2011 Bonds being purchased plus accrued interest with such interest portion of the purchase price to be paid from the Interest Account and the principal portion of such purchase price to be paid from the Sinking Fund Account. In addition, the amount of Series 2011 Bonds to be redeemed on any date pursuant to the mandatory Sinking Fund Account redemption schedule shall be reduced by the principal amount of Series 2011 Bonds of the Series and maturity required to be redeemed which are acquired by the County or the Corporation and delivered to the Trustee for cancellation. Section 506. Redemption Fund. In the event of a deposit with the Trustee by the County of moneys from any other source for redeeming Series 2011 Bonds or the purchase of Series 2011 Bonds for cancellation, except as otherwise provided in this Series Resolution, such moneys shall be deposited in the Redemption Fund. Moneys on deposit in the Redemption Fund shall be used for the redemption or purchase of Series 2011 Bonds in accordance with the provisions of Article III hereof. ARTICLE VI. DEPOSITORIES OF MONEY, SECURITY FOR DEPOSITS, INVESTMENT OF FUNDS Section 601. Security for Deposits. Any and all money deposited or cause to be deposited by the County with the Trustee (or one or more other Depositaries as provided in the Bond Order), except for the amounts in the Operating Fund to be used to pay Operating Expenses, shall be trust funds under the terms hereof and shall not be subject to any lien or attachment by any creditor of the County or the Corporation. Such money shall be held in trust and applied in accordance with the provisions of this Series Resolution and the Bond Order. Until money deposited with the Trustee or any other Depositary hereunder is invested in Investment Obligations, the amount of money in excess of the amount guaranteed by the Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation or other federal agency shall be continuously secured, for the benefit of the County and the Holders, either (a) by lodging with a bank or trust company chosen by the Trustee as custodian or, if then permitted by law, by setting aside under control of the trust department of the bank holding such deposit, as collateral security, Government Obligations or other marketable securities eligible as security for the deposit of trust funds under regulations of 20 Board of Commissioners Meeting 08/15/2011 6 -1 -24 the Comptroller of the Currency of the United States or applicable State law or regulations, having a market value (exclusive of accrued interest) not less than the amount of such deposit, or (b) if the furnishing of security as provided in clause (a) above is not permitted by applicable law, then in such other manner as may then be required or permitted by applicable State or federal laws and regulations regarding the security for, or granting a preference in the case of, the deposit of trust funds; provided, however, that it shall not be necessary for the Trustee to give security for the deposit of any money with it for the payment of the principal of or the redemption premium or the interest on any Series 2011 Bonds, or for the Trustee or any Depositary to give security for any money that shall be represented by obligations purchased under the provisions of this Article as an investment of such money. All money deposited with the Trustee or any Depositary shall be credited to the particular fund or account to which such money belongs. Section 602. Investment of Money. Money held for the credit of all funds and accounts created under this Series Resolution or the Bond Order shall be continuously invested and reinvested by the Trustee in Investment Obligations to the extent practicable. Any such Investment Obligations shall mature not later than the respective dates when the money held for the credit of such funds or accounts will be required for the purposes intended.

For the purposes of this Section, the maturity date of repurchase agreements is the maturity date of such repurchase agreements and not the maturity date of the underlying obligations. The County or the Corporation may at any time give to the Trustee written directions respecting the investment of any money required to be invested hereunder, subject, however, to the provisions of this Article, and the Trustee shall then invest such money under this Section as so directed by the County or the Corporation. The Trustee may request, in writing, direction or authorization of the County or the Corporation with respect to the proposed investment of money under the provisions of this Series Resolution. Upon receipt of such request, accompanied by a memorandum setting forth the details of any proposed investment, the County or the Corporation will either approve such proposed investment or will give written directions to the Trustee respecting the investment of such money and, in the case of such directions, the Trustee shall then, subject to the provisions of this Article, invest such money in accordance with such directions. Investment Obligations acquired with money and credited to any fund or account established under this Series Resolution or the Bond Order shall be held by or under the control of the Trustee and while so held shall be deemed at all times to be part of such fund or account in which such money was originally held, and the interest accruing thereon and any profit or loss realized upon the disposition or maturity of such investment shall be credited to or charged against such fund or account. The Trustee shall reduce to cash a sufficient amount of such Investment Obligations whenever it shall be necessary so to do in order to provide moneys to make any payment or transfer of moneys from any such fund or account. The Trustee shall not be liable or responsible for any loss resulting from any such investment. 21 Board of Commissioners Meeting 08/15/2011 6 -1 -25 Whenever a payment or transfer of money between two or more of the funds or accounts established pursuant to this Series Resolution or the Bond Order is permitted or required, such payment or transfer may be made in whole or in part by transfer of one or more Investment Obligations at a value determined in accordance with this ARTICLE VI, provided that the Investment Obligations transferred are those in which moneys of the receiving fund or account could be invested at the date of such transfer. Section 603. Valuation. For the purpose of determining the amount on deposit to the credit of any such fund or account, Investment Obligations in which money in any fund or account is invested shall be valued (a) at cost if such Investment Obligations mature within six months from the date of valuation thereof, and (b) if such Investment Obligations mature more than six months after the date of valuation thereof, at the price at which such Investment Obligations are redeemable by the holder at his option if so redeemable, or, if not so redeemable, at the lesser of (i) the cost of such Investment Obligations minus the amortization of any premium or plus the amortization of any discount thereon and (ii) the market value of such Investment Obligations. The Investment Obligations in such funds and accounts shall be valued at any time requested by the County Representative or the Corporation Representative on reasonable notice to the Trustee (which period of notice may be waived or reduced by the Trustee); provided, however, that the Trustee shall not be required to value the Investment Obligations more than once in any calendar month.

New Hanover County wishes to provide relocation assistance and moving assistance to households temporarily or permanently displaced as a result of rehabilitation and demolition activities of the 2010 Community Development Programs. Only those individuals and families residing in an area or areas funded by the federal, state, and /or local government programs, that may be displaced as a result of a project's activities and which have unmet, long -term, relocation needs are eligible to receive assistance. In addition, eligibility of the individual or family must have been established and documented prior to the provision of financial assistance under this plan. Optional relocation benefits are authorized by Section 105(a) of the Uniform Relocation Assistance and Real Property Acquisition Policies Act and Sections 570.496a(d) and 570.606(d) of the interim rule which describes the "Act ". The policy is promulgated in accordance therewith. Under the authority of 24CFR570.496a(d) and the North Carolina Community Development Block Grant Program Regulations (4NCAC I 9L), paragraph .1003(b), the County hereby adopts the following optional coverage relocation policy, to be used during implementation of the 2010 CDBG Programs. A. Assistance To Be Provided The following optional coverage relocation policy is to be used during the implementation of the relevant programs. All persons displaced shall be provided relocation assistance in accordance with guidelines outlined under 49CFR24, "Uniform Relocation Assistance and Real Property Acquisition for Federal and Federally- Assisted Programs," except as outlined below. 1. Displaced Person. The term "displaced person," as defined under 49CFR24, shall be extended under this policy to include any person who occupies a primary legal residence or business ninety days prior to the effective date of the initiation of negotiations, who permanently moves from a primary legal residence or business as a direct result of the initiation of negotiations for a CDBG - financed clearance activity, and Board of Commissioners Meeting 08/15/2011 7 -2 -1 either 1) executes a voluntary demolition agreement, or 2) waives their right to URA- sponsored relocation assistance. 2. Initiation of Negotiations. The term "initiation of negotiations," as defined under 49CFR24, shall be extended under this policy to include the delivery date of either (a) a CDBG - financed voluntary demolition agreement, or (b) a code enforcement initial complain, whichever is earlier. 3. Comparable Replacement Dwelling. The term "comparable replacement dwelling," as defined under 49CFR24, shall be redefined under this policy to mean a dwelling which is (1) decent, safe, and sanitary, as defined in 49CFR24.2(f); (2) on a site not subject to adverse environmental conditions and typical in size for residential development with normal site improvements; (3) generally comparable to the displacement site in terms of convenience to employment and commercial and public facilities and services; (4) within the financial means of the displaced person, as defined under 24CFR5760.496a(b)(2) (for displaced rental units), or 49CFR24.2(c)(8)(i) (for displacement owner - occupant units); and (5) currently available to the displaced person on the private market. When the unit to be demolished is dilapidated, a smaller "decent, safe, and sanitary" replacement dwelling (which by definition is adequate to accommodate the displaced person) may be determined to be functionally equivalent to the dilapidated unit scheduled for demolition. 4. The County reserves the right to provide a modular home as a comparable replacement dwelling to the owner - occupant of a frame -built displacement dwelling, if budget considerations prohibit construction of a new frame -built dwelling or provision of a replacement housing payment to cover the cost of a replacement frame -built dwelling available on the private market. In such a case, the notice of relocation eligibility shall clearly state that the replacement dwelling will be a modular home. 5. Relocation Notices. A "notice of relocation eligibility," outlining all information described under 49CFR24.203 (a) and (b) will be sent by certified mail or hand - delivered to all displaced individuals concurrently with any letter or document initiating negotiations for the displacement dwelling. Additionally, the County will, in all cases, precede the initiation of negotiations with a documented personal interview with the individual to be displaced. Ninety -day notices shall be prepared and issued in accordance with 49CFR24.203 (c). 6. Basic Rights of Persons to Be Displaced. No person shall be required to move from a displacement dwelling unless comparable replacement housing is available to such person. The County shall not require any displaced person to accept a dwelling provided by the County under these Board of Commissioners Meeting 08/15/2011 7 -2 -2 procedures (unless the County and the displaced person have entered into a contract to do so) in lieu of any relocation payment for which the person may otherwise be eligible. 7. Appeals. Any aggrieved person may file a written appeal with the County in any case in which the person believes that the County has failed to properly consider the person's eligibility for assistance under this policy, or has not provided assistance properly in accordance with this policy. Such appeals shall be handled in accordance with the provisions of 49CFR24.10 and the New Hanover County Citizen Participation Plan. B. Temporary Relocation Benefits The New Hanover County Planning and Inspections Department is authorized to approve temporary relocation payments to owner - occupants who are forced to vacate their existing dwellings during rehabilitation or prior to provision of a comparable replacement dwelling following demolition. Such temporary relocation shall be accomplished at the minimum feasible cost. Temporary relocation payments will be limited to cover only those expenses that would not otherwise be normal to the relocate. Approval of temporary relocation assistance for rent, motel charges, temporary storage, etc., will be made only upon submittal of cost effective procurement documentation and invoice documentation by the Community Development Administrator. In general, the temporary replacement housing assistance for homeowners, subject to participation in the County's CDBG Programs, is as follows: Moving Benefits 1. Actual moving expenses and /or storage costs not to exceed $1,000 paid to a bonded and licensed moving company for the move to the temporary housing unit and for the return move to the homeowner's housing unit. The County will provide funds to pay for the mover /storage units. 2. A homeowner shall be reimbursed for the disconnection and connection costs, (not to exceed $750), for the homeowner's utilities, telephone, and cable (if required) for the move to the temporary unit and for the return move to the homeowner's housing unit.

A homeowner may be reimbursed for actual reasonable documented rent and utilities, telephone, and cable (if required) incurred at the temporary replacement dwelling, not to exceed $900 per month.

A premature move may result in loss of eligibility for a temporary housing expense payment. Adopted this 15 day of August, 2011.

Board of Commissioners Meeting 08/15/2011 13 -1 -1 The Community Child .Protection Team is in a unique position to encourage conmiunity -wide involvement in the prevention of child maltreatment and to engage citizens in the protection of children-at-risk. Members have an opportunity to i dentify and respond to n th p revention/pr otect i on network , � aximizing th e use o limited resources through creative, collaborative service delivery approaches to help mitigate local issues. In New Hanover County the urunet service delivery to our children is addressed by two CUT teams: 1. The Case Worker Team appointed by the department lead team members, meets monthly to review barriers or gaps in services for selected. cases in which children are being seared by child protective services and/or b cases in which a child died as a result of suspected abuse or neglect and where a report of abuse or negleet .has beer. made about the child o the child's faintly to the N C DSS within the previous 12 Months, or the child or the child's fancily was a recipient of. child protective services within the previous 12 months. The team may also review other types of cases which .impact on gild protection. within our community. 2 . The Department Head Team meet quarter to gather information from all case reviews and address the gaps and deficiencies identified by the monthly meetings. The Team also conducts extensive child fatality reviews, as appropriate. The CUT is charged by statute to "Teport to th e Board r of County Commissioners on an annual basis with recommendations., if any, and r voea e { i s stein impi and needed r - e ow where gap and deficiencies may exist. " We want to recognize the work of the dozens of. members of our Community Child Protection Teams who keep fighting against significant negative forces that can overwhelm even well - intentioned parents and caregivers. During 20 those teams reviewed cases and identified major gaps /needs in service delivery to our children and. now repoil these priority concerns to the Commissioners charged by the General Statute: ( A) Mental H:ealth Services remain at the top of the fist again this year. a Because of the limited funding for uninsured individuals and those who can't afford to pay, mental health services are limited for the citizens of New Hanover County. b There is a need for a public education initiative to build awareness of the available seI is s, system access, customer seine and quality control. c ) Hunian Service -related agencies must make coordinated efforts to hold mental health providers accountable to supp.l r hIgh cost - effective care and services th ensure positive outcomes. (B) A growing concern for children using heroin and "'bath salts "'. (Note: new legislation went into effect on June 1 st ma bath salts illegal. ( C) Child sexual abuse (D) fnadequate childcare financial support for working - families and - families in crisis. (E) Need for a ri te, consistent child abuse protocols in place to educate and improve reporting at schools, hospitals, businesses, childcare facilities and other areas. A standard protocol exists and the CC PT mem can offer the training a t .no- charge. The COPT asks the Commissioners to consider mandating such a protocol and annual training for all county departments and other agencies receiving county funds. ( F) Services to address needs and resources for adolescents aging out of the system. (Note: A. power point presentation accompanies this letter for details on each of these concerns.) Board of Commissioners Meeting 08/15/2011 13 -1 -2 The New an ver County CCPT also works to promote child safety and prevent child maltreatment through community education and by alerting legislators about the need for changes M. laws. Our primary task for this effort is to engage the community and make visible the very important role we can all play in helping to provide every child with a chance to thrive and succeed. This conversation is very challenging in the current environment, but the CC PT accomplished many goals during x010. (b ,f im rtant note ...

NEW HANOVER COUNTY BOARD OF COMMISSIONERS REQUEST FOR BOARD ACTION MEETING DATE: August 15, 2011 REGULAR ITEM: 18 DEPARTMENT: Engineering PRESENTER(S): Jim Iannucci, County Engineer CONTACT(S): Jim Iannucci, County Engineer SUBJECT: Consideration of Request for Renewal of Mason Inlet Waterbird Habitat Management Plan for 2011 (Year 10) with Audubon North Carolina to Meet Permit Requirements of the Mason Inlet Relocation Project BRIEF SUMMARY: In 2002, New Hanover County successfully relocated Mason Inlet 3,000 feet north across the southern tip of Figure 8 Island. As mitigation for impacts to habitats used by nesting waterbirds, New Hanover County was directed to develop and implement a waterbird management plan for the Mason Inlet project area, including the north end of Wrightsville Beach (Condition #16, USACOE Permit). As part of this plan, New Hanover County was required to monitor the nesting success of waterbirds and shorebirds, document the number of nests for each species, and document the species and number of non - breeding birds using the north end of Wrightsville Beach. Implementation of the management component of the Mason Inlet Waterbird Habitat Management Plan has been carried out by Audubon North Carolina (the North Carolina State Office of the National Audubon Society) under contract with New Hanover County, from 2003 - present. Audubon North Carolina has successfully implemented the management component of the Mason Inlet Waterbird Habitat Management Plan since 2003. The nesting of waterbirds and shorebirds has increased dramatically, and habitat for waterbirds and shorebirds was restored. The attached proposed contract concerns the 2011 (year 10) monitoring and management of the Wrightsville Beach component of the Mason Inlet Waterbird Habitat Management Plan. The contract is for a not to exceed amount of $20,833.81. The slight increase in the contract amount will cover additional hours for the education coordinator and the design and printing of signage as needed. RECOMMENDED MOTION AND REQUESTED ACTIONS: Staff recommends that this contract be renewed for continued monitoring and management of waterbird habitat on the northern end of Wrightsville Beach in the amount of $20,833.81 and authorization for the Chairman to execute the contract.

Board of Commissioners Meeting 08/15/2011 18 -0 Wrightsville Beach Waterbird Management Area Waterbird Habitat Management 2011 Proposal Prepared by: Walker Golder Audubon North Carolina 7741 Market Street, Unit D Wilmington, NC 28411 910 - 686 -7527 Submitted: April 25, 2011 Board of Commissioners Meeting 08/15/2011 18 -1 -1 Proposal to New Hanover County for Implementation of the Wrightsville Beach component of the Mason's Inlet Waterbird Habitat Management Plan. 2011 Introduction In 2002, New Hanover County successfully relocated Masons Inlet 3 000 feet north across the southern tip of Figure 8 Island. As mitigation for impacts to habitats used by nesting waterbirds, New Hanover County was directed to develop and implement a waterbird management plan for the Mason Inlet project area, including the north end of Wrightsville Beach (Condition # 16, USACOE Permit). As part of this plan, New Hanover County was required to monitor the nesting success of waterbirds and shorebirds, document the number of nests for each species, and document the species and number of non - breeding birds using the north end of Wrightsville Beach. Implementation of the management component of the Mason's Inlet Waterbird Habitat Management Plan has been carried out by Audubon North Carolina- -the North Carolina State Office of the National Audubon Society- -under contract with New Hanover County, from 2003 - present. Implementation of the monitoring component of the plan has been carried out by UNC- Wilmington, under the direction of Dr. David Webster. Audubon North Carolina (Audubon) has successfully implemented the management component of the Mason's Inlet Waterbird Habitat Management Plan since 2003. Under Audubon's management, human disturbances were controlled and greatly reduced. At the same time, nesting waterbirds and shorebirds increased dramatically, and habitat for waterbirds and shorebirds was restored. The monitoring component of the Waterbird habitat management plan has been implemented by UNCW since 2002. Following discussions with Dr. David Webster, UNCW professor and principal investigator for the bird monitoring component of the management plan, we determined that it would be most efficient if Audubon assumed responsibilities for both the management and monitoring associated with the north end of Wrightsville Beach on January 1, 2007. This resulted in the same level of management and monitoring for the site and with reduced overall cost. This proposal concerns the 2011 monitoring and management of the Wrightsville Beach component of the Mason's Inlet Waterbird Habitat Management Plan. The Mason's Inlet Waterbird Habitat Management Plan The Mason's Inlet Waterbird Habitat Management Plan was developed through meetings and discussions with representatives from Audubon, the North Carolina Wildlife Resources Commission (NCWRC), and the U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service (USFWS), all of whom have extensive knowledge of waterbird biology and management, with additional input from New Hanover County staff, US Army Corps of Engineers, and Land Management Group, Inc. The original management plan, developed in 2002, was later revised prior to the 2004 nesting season. Goals and actions outlined by Audubon, NCWRC, and USFWS in the management plan, and in the revised management plan, were consistent with waterbird management practices implemented on similar beaches throughout the Atlantic and Gulf Coasts of the U.S. One of the most critical factors required to meet the goals of the Waterbird Habitat Management Plan is the prevention of human - induced disturbances to birds using the site. These disturbances result from both passive and active recreation activity by people and dogs (leashed or unleashed). Disturbances can be deliberate, such as a person or dog chasing birds or they can be seemingly benign, such as a person walking calmly down the beach. Regardless, the reaction of the birds is the same. They leave their nests or chicks until the threat (a person or dog) leaves the area. Chronic disturbances, even at low levels, result in increased nest abandonment and failure, increased chick mortality, and eventually Board of Commissioners Meeting 08/15/2011 18 -1 -2 abandonment of the nesting site. The impact of chronic or prolonged disturbances by people or dogs can be exactly the same as a person deliberately stepping on an egg or chick. Human disturbances and loss of habitat are the most significant threats to waterbirds. These two factors present the greatest threat to most waterbird and shorebird species. The Mason's Inlet Waterbird Habitat Management Plan specifically addresses disturbances from people and dogs and outlines specific requirements to reduce human - induced disturbances. The Plan also specifically includes public information and education activities that have been shown to be important for the overall success of waterbird /shorebird management. Monitoring is equally important. Long term monitoring bird use and productivity of nesting birds is the only feasible means of assessing the effectiveness of management actions and assessing the overall impact of the project on birds. Five goals are outlined in the Mason's Inlet Waterbird Habitat Management Plan, along with specific actions required to meet each of the goals. The goals include: 1. Identify and protect nesting habitat for waterbird species. 2. Provide high quality foraging and roosting habitat for waterbird species. 3. Restrain human and animal disturbances to waterbirds throughout the year. 4. Educate and inform the public about waterbirds and waterbird habitat in the project area. 5. Monitor bird abundance year round in the project area. Implementation In April 2003, Audubon North Carolina (the North Carolina State Office of the National Audubon Society) entered into a cooperative agreement with New Hanover County to manage the north end of Wrightsville Beach in a manner that will restore the site for nesting birds. This agreement has been renewed for every season since 2003. As directed by County staff, Audubon's primary objective will be to implement one component of Mason's Inlet Waterbird Habitat Management Plan; the component of the Plan pertaining to nesting waterbirds on the north end of Wrightsville Beach. This would partially fulfill goals outlined in the Plan and the corresponding condition of the permit issued for the relocation of Mason's Inlet. To this end, Audubon proposes to complete each of the following: 1. Employ a biological technician to implement the Wrightsville Beach component of the Mason's Inlet Waterbird Habitat Management Plan. 2. Locate colonies and nesting sites for waterbirds and shorebirds on the north and south ends of Wrightsville Beach. 3. Post, rope off, and monitor the sites for the entire nesting season to prevent human disturbances as outlined in the Mason's Inlet Waterbird Habitat Management Plan. 4. Document all human and dog disturbances. 5. Maintain signage for the entire nesting season. 6. Develop and advertise educational programs about birds of the area and offer to the public free of charge; maintain interpretative panels at the information kiosk. 7. Redesign and produce interpretative panels for the information kiosk. 8. Assemble and coordinate volunteers to assist with management, protection, monitoring, and education activities. Completing the above objectives will result in compliance with the Mason's Inlet Waterbird Habitat Management Plan and associated permits pertaining to waterbird and shorebird management on the north and south ends of Wrightsville Beach. Board of Commissioners Meeting 08/15/2011 18 -1 -3 Monitoring Audubon will continue monitoring breeding and non - breeding bird use on the north end of Wrightsville Beach, following the same protocols as Dr. David Webster. Monitoring will include the following: 1. A waterbird and shorebird nesting survey will be conducted to determine how the inlet relocation project affects nesting productivity for those species of birds that in the project area. Waterbird and shorebird nesting areas will be identified and monitored throughout the waterbird- shorebird nesting season (April 1 through August 31, or until the last chick fledges). Monitoring will take place on the north and south ends of Wrightsville Beach. Based on past years, the list of species expected to nest in the project area includes, but is not limited to, Black Skimmers, American Oystercatchers, Wilson's Plovers, Willets, Least Terns, and Common Terns. During the nesting season, a sample of nests will be marked and monitored every 2 -3 days from date of discovery to hatch date. Care will be taken to minimize disturbance to nesting birds. Nest monitoring activities will not be conducted during adverse weather conditions. Hatching success and fledging success will be determined for all species. 2. A monitoring program for breeding and non - breeding piping plovers will be implemented. The area will be monitored for nesting attempts by Piping Plovers. If a nest is located, it will be marked and monitored every 2 -3 days until the last chick has fledged. a. dates when monitoring began and ended; b. nesting chronology (dates when plovers were first seen on the site, nest establishment dates, dates when unfledged chicks are present on the site); c. locations of nests and brood foraging territories; d. known and suspected causes of nest and chick loss; e. locations of commonly used foraging areas during each stage of the breeding cycle; and g. use of the site by post- breeding or migrating plovers. Monitoring for non - breeding plovers will be conducted weekly (no less than every 6 days) during the migrating and the over - wintering periods (July 1 through May 15). Surveys will be evenly distributed throughout this period, including a wide range of tidal conditions and habitat types. 3. A weekly survey of all bird species and number of individuals utilizing the project area will be conducted year round. A final project report will be prepared and submitted on or before April 1, 2012. conclmsinn The management and monitoring actions implemented on Wrightsville Beach have worked very well to restore suitable conditions for breeding and non - breeding birds at this location. Both actions are essential to maintaining the site for birds and should continue as proposed. The proposed actions stated herein will accomplish these objectives while maintaining compliance with federal permits issued for the relocation of Mason Inlet. Furthermore, the project is at a stage where combining both management and monitoring under Audubon's direction is the most efficient and cost effective means to maintain the north end of Wrightsville Beach in a state that is favorable to breeding and non - breeding birds.

A copy of the letter is attached. On behalf of New Hanover County, Commissioner Catlin headed up discussions with Tom Reeder of the Division of Water Resources regarding the distribution of these funds. Mr. Reeder responded on Friday, August 5, 2011 and notified the County and other interested communities that the funds have been authorized for release for the maintenance dredging of Carolina Beach Inlet, Bogue Inlet, Topsail Inlet and Lockwoods Folly Inlet. Under the provisions of the state budget, these funds require a 50% match by local funding. The US Army Corps of Engineers estimates the funding needed to dredge Carolina Beach Inlet through June 30, 2012 is $450,000. Therefore the required local match is $225,000. Mr. Reeder requested that any community interested in providing matching funds send a letter of commitment to his attention. No funds will be required until a Memorandum of Agreement has been executed between NCDENR and the Corps of Engineers. The Port, Waterway and Beach Commission held a meeting on Tuesday, August 9, 2011 to discuss possible cost sharing scenarios for the Carolina Beach Inlet. The recommendation of the PWB Commission will be made available. Be advised that Commissioner Catlin and Deputy County Attorney Kemp Burpeau confirmed through Representative Danny McComas that Room Occupancy Tax (ROT) funds cannot be used for this purpose. RECOMMENDED MOTION AND REQUESTED ACTIONS: Recommendation is for the Board to approve the required local matching funds in the amount of $225,000 per the chosen funding scenario and send a letter of commitment to Tom Reeder of the Division of Water Resources.

The proposed rate changes would become effective September 15, 2011 and would result in approximately $112,000 of additional revenue per year. $42,000 of the increased parking revenues would be used to upgrade Scan Net, the parking financial software, and pay the increased labor cost to cover the extended hours. At the previous meeting we discussed security on the deck. The Sheriff has increased patrol on the deck to 2 -4 visits per deputy assigned to assist the Wilmington Police per night. Currently 5 deputies are assigned downtown, equating to 10 -20 more patrol visits on the parking deck during our peak incident times. Accordingly, the remaining $70,000 can be used to: Option A: reduce appropriated fund balance.

Areas of concern: I would like to see the Library continue to expand as our community grows. I want to ensure that the library gets the resources it deserves and needs to serve the citizens of our county.
