Resolution
In Support of Placing All Programs Traditionally in the
Division of Environmental Health under the Organization of
Department of HeaIth and Human Services
,
WHEREAS, delivery of Environmental Health services to the Citizens of North Carolina is carried
out at the county level by local health department employees; and
WHEREAS, delivery of Environmental Health services at the local level is funded by local dollars
(97% local and 3% state); and
WHEREAS, Environmental Health services at the local level include on-site wastewater (i.e. septic
systems) food, lodging, and institutional sanitation (restaurants, nursing homes, food borne disease
investigation) child care sanitation, child lead program, swimming pools, rabies control, safe drinking water;
and
WHEREAS, the State relies on local employees who are authorized as agents of the State Division
of Environmental Health to carry out mandated State environmental health programs; and
WHEREAS, having two different proposed State environmental health authorities for local health
departments is inefficient and will cause regulatory confusion for the public and severely impact centralized
training, authorization, regulatory direction and uniformity; and
WHEREAS, the N.C Association of County Commissioners, the N. C. Association of Local Health
Director's, the Association of North Carolina Boards of Health, the N. C. Environmental Health Supervisor's
Association, and the N. C Public Health Association, have endorsed the position to keep environmental health
programs together under the State Health Director;
THEREFORE, BE IT RESOL YED, that the New Hanover County Board of Commissioners
strongly supports the need to ensure all aspects of Environmental Health be under the organizational structure
of the Department of Health and Human Services in order to continue to provide the most effective regulatory
program for the citizens of North Carolina for the protection of the public health and preservation of the
environment.

RESOLUTION OF THE
NEW HANOVER BOARD
OF COMMISSIONERS
WHEREAS, the New Hanover County Board of Commissioners is charged with
the responsibility of promoting the health, safety and welfare of the residents of New
Hanover County, and
WHEREAS, the Board of Commissioners has determined that there exists a
great need in New Hanover County for capital outlay, and
WHEREAS, the Board of Commissioners is seeking alternatives to continued
reliance on ad valorem property taxes because property taxpayers are bearing a
disproportionate share of the tax burden for providing funding for necessary services
and facilities.
NOW, THEREFORE, BE IT RESOLVED that the New Hanover County Board of
Commissioners seeks to alleviate the tax burden placed upon property owners by
supporting Senate Bill 440 introduced by Senator Patrick Ballantine Alternatively, the
Board of Commissioners believes that having the ability to assess a one cent ($ 01)
local sales tax returned to its point-of- origin in all. counties is a proper method to raise
revenue for needed capital outlay and requests that the New Hanover County
Legislative Delegation enact a one cent ($.01) point-of-origin sales tax for New
Hanover County
