Minutes of the h?eeting August 7, 1961 Continued NAACP - A letter was received from the Wilmington Branch•of the NAACP and read to the Board by the Vice Chairman, Mr. Leo E. Shepard as follows: "In the light of the action taken by the County Commission at its meeting of II July 3, 1961; in regard to the New Han?,?gr? f?gunty Hospital Bond election, the Wilmington Branch of the N.?1.A.C.P., as many of the citizens of our community were at a loss to understand the reason of the reversal of the Commission's previous decision to have the bond referendum in 1962. It was our understand- ing that the Commission came to this decision because the general public need- ed the time to adequately study the proposal in order that they would be able to intelligently vote on_this matter. lnle feel that there are many questions that should.be answered in regard to the the proposed hospital which have heretofore gone unanswered. Such questions as "How much money is needed to huild what kind of hospita2? Has the location for the proposed hospital been determined7 If the proposed hospital is built what will happen to the present institution now supported and maintained with County funds? Is the proposed hospital expected to serve the entire County community? In order that these and other questions that may be raised in con- nection with the proposed hospital it would seem most urgent that some authori- tative body or commission be established or appointed immediately so that the general public may be adequately enlighten on the entire proposal. It is hoped that your Commissioneis will appoint a bi-racial committee. Your•..prompt attention in this regard would be appreciated. /S/ Burdell Harvey Pres. Wilmingto n Branch N.A.A.C.P. Leo E. Shepard Vice Pres. Wilmington Branch Robert Johnson Secretary The Chairman thanked him for the letter and assured him that its contents would be taken into consideration and said he appreciated the interest they were taking in regard to this subject.

A & E BUDGET CHANGE - The Executive Secretary informed the Board that Nr. D. D. Baggett, County Farm Agent; requested him to ask the Board to transfer $143.00 from the salary approved for an Assistant County Farm Agent to the salary of an Assistant Home Economics Agent. The reason it is necess- ary is hecause the Assistant Home Economics Agent who will replace Miss Emmy Lou Tea+l, re- cently resigned, has had more experience and will command a slightly higher salary of which the County's share wiil be $143.00 per year. He is of the opinion that the Assistant Farm Agent, if employed, will have less experience than Mr. Howell whom he wili replace and there- fore command a lesser salary.

W G. `Houck, Executive 5ecr tary Commissioners Room ASSEMBLY Wilmington, N. C. August 21, 1961 The New Hanover County Board of Commissioners met in regular semimonthly . session today at 9:00 A. M. with the following members present: Chairman J. M. Hall, Jr. Commissioners Peter H. Braak, L. E. Broadhurst, Ernest R. Mayhan and John Van B. Metts, Jr., County Auditor T. D. Love and County Attorney L. Bradford Tillery. INVOCATION Chairman Hall called the meeting to order and asked Bishop Thomas H. Wright, Diocese of East Carolina of the Episcopal Church, to give a prayer of invocation. . PUBLIC HEARING - , ' After the Chairman declared the meeting officially opened, the Clerk report- I ed to the Board that the bond order entitled "Bond Order authorizing the issuance of $5,500,000 Public Hospital Bonds of the County of New Hanover", which was introduced ' on August 7th, 1961, has been published in the Wilmington Morning Star on August 9, 1961, with notice that the Board of Commissioners would hold a public hearing thereon ? on August 21, 1961, at 9:00 o'clock A. M. Mr. Peter H. Braak moved that the Board proceed to hold a public hearing on the bond order. The motion was seconded by Mr. John Van B. Metts, Jr, and was unanimously adopted. At 9:09 o'clock, A. M., the Chair- man announced that the Board would hear any citizen or taxpayer who desired to be heard with respect to the bond order. At the direction of the Chairman the Clerk read the @ond 0rder and the published Notice of Hearing. 1Wenty-seven persons express- ed themselves either in support of the hospital or feeling as if certain other informa- tion should be known before the bond election was held. Some thought that the public was entitled to the whole truth without any double talk with reference to such questions as integration, how much tax it would take, iahere th2 hospital wonld be located; others suggested a non-partisan temporary Board of Trustees without regard to color or race to assure no discrimination but adequate medical facilities for the treatment of the sick. The opinions ranged from complete support of the hospital by some to opposing it with every legal means at their disposal unless some of the issues are resolved relative to the integration of the medical staff, nurses and patients. Everyone seem- ed to think that that there was a need for new hospital facilities. After the Board had heard ail persons who requested to be heard, Mr. Peter H. Braak moved that Lhe public hearing be closed. The motion was seconded by Mr. L. E. Broadhurst and was unani- mously adopted. After a brief discussion of the various issues suggested by citizens, Mr. PeLer H. Braak moved that the following Resolution be adopted: WHEREAS, the bond order entitled "Band Order authorizing the issuance of $5,500,000 continued- ? ?i
