MINUTES OF SPECIAL ~EETING
October 11, 19b7 8:15 P.M.
At a special meeting of the New Hanover County Board of Commissioners held on the above date
in the Commissioners~ Room, the following were present: Commissioners J. M. Hall, Jr., John Van
B. Metts, Jr., M. H. Vaughan; County Attorney L. Bradford Tillery; and County Manager J. E.
Marshall.
In view of Chairman Dr. Hooper being out of town and Vice-Chairman Laurence 0. Bowden being
iil, the meeting was called to order by Commissioner Vaughan with the consent of Commissioners
Metts and Hali.
Mr. C. B. McCandless, a spokesman for a delegation of sixteen people from the Homeowners
Association,spoke to the point about taxes and several other points that were related to the
Homeowners Association and the Building Code. It seemed the main complaint was aimed at the
Building Inspector not as an individual but the fact of an enforcement officer and the Building
Code. Further, he spoke to the point of the one mile area being controlled by the City re-
garding building and electrical permits and inspections. He further stated that the principal
objection is harassment on small projectswhere the demands are not consistent with the present
structure.
A Mr. George Frank Stone spoke and his objection seemed to be pointed at the County Govern-
ment in general. It was determined that Mr. Stone was not a member of the Homeowners Association
and further, that he had not attended any of their meetings. This iaas confirmed by Mr. C. B.
McCandless.
N~r. Norman E. Cunningham spoke and related that he had purchased land from Mr. Norman Johnson
and pointed out that he had tried to develop the lot which he had purchased, and that he had
talked with the Health Department, the County Manager, and Electrical Inspector about the location
of a trailer, installing a septic tank, and a temporary service pole for electrical service to
permit him to.clear the lot after dark. This being a rather lengthy presentation, the County
Manager was instructed to investigate along with the Health Department this particular matter and
make a report to the Commissioners.
Mr. A. B. Riggs spoke to the point of poor citizens in the County and seemed to be against
zoning, building codes, and permits.
At this point, and subsequent to several statements being made that inspectors forced their
way into several different properties, it was agreed that no Building Inspector or Health In-
spectbn from the County had ever forced their way onto or into anyone's home. Everyone present,
including the members of the Commission, the County Manager, and the Home Owners Association
agreed with this statement. There were no dissenting remarks.
There being no further statements to be made, Mr. Metts moved, seconded by Mr. Hall, that
the meeting be adjourned. Motion was carried.
J. E. Marshall, County Manager
