Projects that implement or expand construction and demolition (C &D) recycling efforts are strongly encouraged. The Environmental Management Department proposes to expand its C &D recycling program with the implementation of new C &D sorting equipment and an improved concrete pad at the landfill's C &D site. This grant funding would be used to reduce the overall project cost by the full amount of the approved grant award.

STRATEGIC PLAN ALIGNMENT: Effective County Management • Increase efficiency and quality of key business processes RECOMMENDED MOTION AND REQUESTED ACTIONS: Approve the submission of a grant application for $30,000 to the NCDENR Division of Environmental Assistance and Customer Service for the Construction and Demolition Recycling program.

Board of Commissioners - February 16, 2015 ITEM: 6 NEW HANOVER COUNTY BOARD OF COMMISSIONERS REQUEST FOR BOARD ACTION MEETING DATE: February 16, 2015 CONSENT DEPARTMENT: Public Information PRESENTER(S): Carey Disney Ricks, Public and Legislative Affairs Director CONTACT(S): Brett Cottrell, Media Productions Specialist and Lena Butler, Purchasing Supervisor SUBJECT: Approval to Award Contract to MTS Services for the Audio -Visual Technology Upgrade Design for the Board of Commissioners' Assembly Room BRIEF SUMMARY: The Audio - Visual Technology Upgrade Design Project stands to address outdated and failing equipment currently in place. Over recent months, staff has experienced intermittent issues with the current system that has indicated imminent yet somewhat unpredictable failure. Antiquated rack hardware alongside lost features in Crestron programming and old audio cabling presents a real challenge for each and every event in that space in that staff is unable to feel confident that the AN system will perform as expected when it is needed as it has failed in the past. Addressing the Assembly Room's AN System will not only improve reliability, but will also improve the user experience in the space (to include annotation, timers, video inputs, formatting and audio) and the clarity of presentations made using the system and broadcasted on NHCTV. The urgency with this project ties directly to two other major projects happening with NHCTV equipment at the Courthouse. NHCTV's head -end is being moved to the Government Center to safeguard against power issues while Courthouse broadcast equipment is also being replaced and updated in order to achieve a more reliable and better looking production at the same time. Due to the nature of those two existing projects, staff feels that it is best suited that we move forward with the Assembly Room project at the same time in order to capture any and all potential compatibility issues between the Assembly Room and NHCTV Control Room. Vendors will have an opportunity to work with one another to achieve the most harmonious solution possible while maintaining the least amount of downtime for the room. The Board is being asked to consider this because: 1) the amount requires Board action, and 2) it affects the Board's meetings. Proposals were solicited and received on January 26, 2015 from qualified vendors to design new audio - visual technology for the Board of Commissioners' Assembly Room. Vendors were asked to create a professional broadcast quality audio - visual system to facilitate and document County meetings and presentations and integrate with existing high definition broadcast video production equipment. Five (5) proposals were received in response to the County's solicitation. • Imagenation Systems $ 81,888.44 • LGS Innovations $ 86,878.18 • MTS Services $134,998.00 • Innovative Collaboration $292,880.38 • Acousticreations $320,313.21 Staff reviewed each proposal and sought further clarification from the vendor when needed to assist with selecting the vendor whose proposal was most advantageous to the County. Staff unanimously agreed that the proposal submitted by MTS Services was the best solution. (See attached scoring sheet.)

A 15 -yr extension has the potential for five additional federally cost - shared CSDR events totaling approximately $30M in federal participation. However, many of the CB CSDR project benefits, as defined by the US Army Corps of Engineers ( USACE) economic modeling guidelines (erosion control, flood damage reduction and recreation), have been attained over the project's 50 -year life while project costs continue to rise. As such, federal and non - federal paths are being explored to determine if there remains a competitive benefit/cost ratio (BCR) and if a 15 -year project authorization extension is plausible. The proposed RFQ would provide the non - federal Risk Reduction Plan and potentially produce a current BCR assessment. If the BCR is determined competitive, the decision would be brought forward to continue with the development of a limited re- evaluation report (LRR). This non - federal approach would allow NHC managing oversight of the scope, fee and schedule. This approach may provide an expedited path determining if the analytical BCR assessment is sufficient to retain federal interest. The USACE federal approach is being devised in terms of a LRR scope, fee and schedule for the same efforts except for the Risk Reduction Plan which is solely a non - federal stakeholder responsibility. This federal approach provides NHC very limited scope, fee and schedule participation but would provide a greater potential of moving through the USACE vertical team process. The USACE scope, fee and schedule exclusive of the vertical team approval process have been requested; however, implementing guidance from USACE Head Quarters has not been provided as of yet. Staff is recommending advertising, interviewing and securing a team capable of fulfilling the needs of assessing the project. A contract would then be brought forward for consideration with the first deliverable of providing the non - federal Risk Reduction Plan followed potentially by the analytical BCR with subsequent LRR efforts if a competitive BCR is the outcome. If the USACE provides a manageable, cost effective and timely LRR project approach; NHC would have a team qualified in providing the non - federal Risk Reduction Plan that would be an appendix to the USACE LRR document. The scope of the locally held contract would then be adjusted accordingly. STRATEGIC PLAN ALIGNMENT: Intelligent Growth and Economic Development • Build and maintain infrastructure Board of Commissioners - February 16, 2015 ITEM: 13 RECOMMENDED MOTION AND REQUESTED ACTIONS: Staff requests permission to advertise, interview and select a firm /team capable of preparing the project risk reduction report, an economic BCR evaluation and potentially a limited re- evaluation report.

The primary purposes of the program are to assess shoreline conditions, measure volumetric rates of erosion and accretion, track the movement of sand in the longshore and cross -shore direction through comparative surveys and evaluate beach conditions from one reach to another gauging NHC's coastal storm damage reduction (CSDR) efforts. The 2015 SMP tasks include: (1) surveying the 124 profiles established along Wrightsville Beach, Masonboro Island, Freeman Park, Carolina Beach, Kure Beach, Fort Fisher and adjacent inlets with preparation of an annual report (attached figures); (2) inclusion of the 2005/2006 USACE survey data set facilitating long -term trend analyses while helping to develop future healthy shoreline volumes and potential event triggers. If needed and authorized by staff, (3) rapid response post - hurricane survey of all profiles along all areas listed above which includes a letter report summarizing the results and (4) bathymetric surveys of all four borrow areas ( Masonboro Inlet, Carolina Beach Inlet and offshore borrow areas A & B). Items (3) and (4) are not included in the contract amount and if authorized will be billed per costs provided. The Port, Waterway and Beach Commission supports this shoreline mapping program. Room occupancy tax funds are eligible for the proposed effort as defined by the General Assembly in 2002 "Costs directly associated with qualifying for projects either contracted through the U.S. Army Corps of Engineers or otherwise permitted by all appropriate federal and state agencies." This program meets local monitoring requirements within each federal Project Cooperation Agreement (PCA). Staff is requesting authorization to initiate the 2015 Shoreline Mapping Program Tasks 1 & 2 at a cost of $163,040.00 which is currently budgeted with ROT funds. STRATEGIC PLAN ALIGNMENT: Intelligent Growth and Economic Development • Build and maintain infrastructure RECOMMENDED MOTION AND REQUESTED ACTIONS: Staff is requesting the Commissioners' approve implementing New Hanover County's 2015 Shoreline Mapping Program.

These neighborhoods have had numerous septic tank failures that impact the environment and pose a health risk as well as a financial burden to the residents. The Board of County Commissioners agreed to move forward with a project at its May 6, 2013 meeting to bring sanitary sewer systems to these affected areas. As part of the meeting, the Board directed staff to prepare an interlocal agreement with the Authority funding engineering and design for approval at a future meeting. An interlocal agreement with the Authority was signed by the Authority's Board of Directors on August 14, 2013 and was signed with a budget amendment by the Board at the September 3, 2013 meeting. The interlocal agreement went into effect on October 4, 2013. The interlocal agreement allows the Authority to partner with the County in this project and details the distribution of costs between the two entities. It notes the total cost of the project to be $16,962,184 with the Authority contributing $4,264,000 through engineering and design work and overall project contribution. The County will be responsible for funding the remaining cost of the project. Amendment I to the interlocal agreement has been drafted that further clarifies the roles of the Authority and the County as well as modifies the scope of work. The addition in scope will add $113,400 to the projects. The additional costs will be covered through existing eligible Clean Water State Revolving Fund (CWSRF) proceeds and Authority project contributions and will not require increasing the loan amount for either project. Specifically: Adds Bainridge Court to the project. Bainridge Court is located just outside the original Marquis Hills project limit and has six homes that are experiencing failing septic tanks. Location is shown on Exhibit A. This cul de sac is surrounded by existing sewer but was never connected to the system. The existence of these septic tanks in a sewered neighborhood just outside the project limits was discovered after the project was designed. A connection will be made to the recently added manhole in the vicinity of the O'Reilly Auto Parts store. This connection and modification to the sewer plans will facilitate the use of shallower sewer which will reduce the impacts of the project and will also result in reduction in cost. The manhole at the O'Reilly's that allows this modification was added after the project was designed and submitted. A clarification was included that states "The cost of the sewer taps are included in the estimated project cost to be funded by the County. Tap fees are not due from the owners of individual parcels." This was added as a result of citizen feedback at the public meetings for the project and clears up the fact that residents will not pay a tap fee to the Authority for sewer. Board of Commissioners - February 16, 2015 ITEM: 15 Section 4 of the interlocal agreement was modified to read: "4. Authority Cost Participation. The Authority cost participation shall not exceed a contribution of $4,264,000 toward the Project. Cost participation can include both the costs that are eligible and those that are ineligible for reimbursement through the CWSRF program and can be split as required for both Marquis Hills Project costs or Heritage Park Project costs. Costs can include, but are not limited to, engineering, construction, paving and easements." This modification was added to allow flexibility in funding both projects as well as make maximum use of the low interest loan to pay for eligible project costs. Costs such as additional paving that are not loan eligible can be paid out of the Authority's contribution. The Authority's contribution can be used for either project as needed to further aid in the flexibility of funding both projects as well as taking full advantage of the low interest loan. The amendment was executed by the Cape Fear Public Utility Authority on February 2, 2015. STRATEGIC PLAN ALIGNMENT: Superior Public Health, Safety and Education • Provide health and wellness education, programs, and services RECOMMENDED MOTION AND REQUESTED ACTIONS: Recommendation is for the Board to approve Amendment 1 to the interlocal agreement between the Cape Fear Public Utility Authority and the County for the sewer projects in Marquis Hills and Heritage Park communities and to eliminate failing septic tanks.

Included is a summary of revenues and expenditures as recorded by the County for the General, Environmental Management, and Fire Services Funds. Audited information is presented for the fiscal year ended June 30, 2014. This information is provided to help keep you abreast of the financial status of the County on a regular basis throughout the fiscal year. Data provided by fund includes: • Actual revenues and expenditures for the previous fiscal year ended June 30, 2014; • Budget revenues and expenditures for the current fiscal year ending June 30, 2015; • Actual revenues and expenditures as of the end of the quarter for both fiscal years; • Percentage of actual revenues /expenditures received /spent for the same period the previous fiscal year; • Percentage of budget revenues /expenditures received /spent for the current fiscal year; and • Graphical comparison of actual amounts as a percent of budget for both fiscal years presented. GENERAL FUND HIGHLIGHTS: As the chart highlights, many revenues are not received, nor expenses paid, evenly throughout the year. • The bulk of ad valorem taxes are received in December and January, as real property taxes are not considered late and subject to interest until after January 5, 2015. Collections year to date exceed the prior year by 4.0 %. • Sales taxes are received from the State two and one half months following the month in which they are collected by the vendors across North Carolina. Thus, sales tax revenues represent only one quarter of this year's revenues to be distributed to local governments by the State. Sales tax year to date exceeds the prior year by 10.5 %. • Debt is recorded when debt proceeds are received, which will be when needed. The County is reviewing results on a monthly basis to determine the need to issue the debt budgeted. • Economic & Physical Development, Debt Service, and Transfers are not distributed evenly by month. Rather, expenditures are paid when due. • Other operating expenditures, while higher than the prior year, appear in line with expectations. ENVIRONMENTAL MANAGEMENT FUND HIGHLIGHTS: As with the General Fund, many revenues and expenses do not fall evenly throughout the year for Environmental Management. • Charges for Services, or tipping fees, are on target with close to 50% of budgeted revenues received. • Intergovernmental Revenue is not evenly distributed by month. Rather, it is recorded when received and consists of State revenues for tire rebate, white goods disposal, and solid waste disposal funds. • Transfers among activities are recorded when funding is required. Budgeted transfers for Capital Reserve and Post Closure Costs have been recorded for fiscal year 2015. • Capital expenses occur when related capital assets are needed. FIRE SERVICES FUND HIGHLIGHTS: Again, as with the General Fund, many revenues and expenses do not fall evenly throughout the year for Fire Services: • The bulk of ad valorem taxes are received in December and January, as property taxes are not considered late and subject to interest until after January 5, 2015. Collections year to date exceed the prior year by 1.1 %. • Sales taxes are received from the State two and one half months after the month in which they are collected by the vendors across North Carolina. Thus, sales tax revenues represent only one quarter of this year's revenues to be distributed to local governments by the State. Collections year to date exceed the prior year by 11.3 %. • Charges for Services currently exceed the conservative budget estimate for this year. • Intergovernmental Revenue, Debt Service and Capital Expenses, are not evenly distributed by month throughout the year. Rather, expenses are paid when due and revenues recorded when received. Intergovernmental Revenue is primarily comprised of a multi -year FEMA Fire Prevention and Safety grant ending January 2015. Revenues are received quarterly in reimbursement of qualifying expenditures. Debt Service expenses occur when payments are due. Capital expenses occur when the capital asset is needed. • Some operating expenses are not paid evenly over the year, rather they are paid when due. Rents, contracted services, repairs, and uniforms were paid in greater proportion in the first half of the fiscal year. In addition, payment to the general fund for interdepartmental services was transferred in July for the full year.

Jones DATE: January 29, 2015 RE: Addendum to New Hanover County Library Advisory Board Application Why do you wish to serve on this board/committee? I care very deeply about opening doors to opportunity for people — particularly children — in our community. I view public library systems as a key to opening those opportunities, by serving as conduits for education, literacy, and the pursuit of knowledge. Consequently, the NHC Public Library system plays a vital role in the strength of this community by connecting its citizens with opportunities for their own personal and professional growth and advancement. Our libraries also serve as a meeting place for our citizens — a place for the community to gather, interact, and feel safe. Serving as a member of the NHC Library Advisory Board would allow me to lend my talents in service of this community, this important institution, and its important impact. What areas of concern would you like to see addressed by this committee? One particular area of concern I would like to see addressed by the NHC Library Advisory Board is keeping up with technological advancement. The internet, smartphones, e- readers, and other, more dramatic recent technological advances have changed the way people interact with information and each other. Accordingly, it is important that the library stay on the cutting edge of technological developments so that it will continue to serve as a valuable, relevant resource for members of our community. Additionally, I think it is important for the library to stay focused on ensuring that it is an inviting, accessible place to people from the entire spectrum of the New Hanover County population. The NHC Library Advisory Board must ensure that our library system is offering the right programs, engaging in appropriate partnerships, and providing the appropriate resources to meet the needs of our community as a whole. As a public institution, I also believe it is important that we do this in a cost - effective way for our citizens. Qualifications for serving? I have deep roots in the NHC Public Library System. Shortly after my family moved to town in 1991, the public library was the first place my mother took my sister and I in an effort to get us connected to our new community. Growing up in this County, I made frequent use of the library's resources, participated in the summer reading program, and frequently checked out books — all of which served as the basis of my love of reading and continuing interest in the pursuit of knowledge. Beyond my history with the library, I am also qualified to serve on the New Hanover County Library Advisory Board because of my education and experience. As an attorney, I am trained to approach problems systematically, with a focus on outcomes and results. My experience as a civil litigator with a concentration in business and corporate law matters also prepares me to handle a variety of relevant issues in a comprehensive way, and enables me to interact with Board of Commissioners - February 16, 2015 ITEM: 17- 3 - 6 stakeholders from extensive backgrounds. I also have experience with the process and demands involved with being a member of an advisory board, having served on several institutional and campus -wide boards and committees during my time as an undergraduate at Davidson College, and in law school at the Elon University School of Law. Finally, as a twenty- six - year -old young professional, I believe I am situated to provide a unique perspective and voice as a member of the NHC Library Advisory Board. 2 Board of Commissioners - February 16, 2015 ITEM: 17- 3 - 7 ANDREW RICHARD JONES 4306 Stratton Village Lane, Wilmington, North Carolina 28409 ajones@rountreelosee.com EDUCATION ELON UNIVERSITY SCHOOL OF LAW, J.D., magna cum laude, 2013 Honors: Presidential Scholarship (full merit -based scholarship); The Order of Barristers; Phi Kappa Phi Honor Society; Leadership Fellow; Dean's List.
