NEW HANOVER COUNTY BOARD OF COMMISSIONERS
LEGISLATIVE PRIORITIES RESOLUTION
WHEREAS, several |eQis|advephorbieyhovebeenident0edbythe8oardthatareimportantUsthecitizensofNew
Hanover County; and
WHEREAS, the Board will advance these legislative priorities through dialogue and, as appropriate, atthe annual
legislative conferences of the North Carolina Association of County Commissioners (NCACC) and National Association
of Counties (NACo); and
WHEREAS, none of the legislative priorities are in conflict with NCACC or NACo priorities; and
WHEREAS, the Board supports the state identifying a recurring source of funding of at least$2Smillion annually to
the beach nourishment fund created by the General Assembly in 2018to support ongoing coastal storm damage
reduction ([SDR) projects. New Hanover County, and other coastal communities, can best plan and prioritize local
budget needs with dedicated, annual allocations of state support those communities can use for planning, current
projects, or future projects. The Board further finds that protecting coastal infrastructure provides a benefit to the
entire state of North Carolina, as public or private interests from nearly every North Carolina county own coastal
property. The Board further supports continued federal and state funding of Congressionally approved CSDR projects
for Wrightsville Beach, Carolina Beach, and Kure Beach; and
WHEREAS, the Board supports the commitment cfnecessary federal and state resources tofund the replacement
of the Cape Fear Memorial Bridge. The bridge was built in 1969 and its age and ongoing maintenance expenses are
inadequate tnmeet future growth; and
WHEREAS, the Board supports the state and federal governments establishing formal standards for perfluorinated
chemicals (PFOA and PFOS) and establishing and enforcing health advisory standards for emerging contaminants to
ensure drinking water quality. The Board further supports legislation or action to hold polluters financially
responsible for cleanup and remediation of these chemicals in drinking water and supports a state appropriation to
complete the Lower Cape Fear Water and Sewer Authority raw water transmission line; and
WHEREAS, the Board supports administrative and legislative changes to federal agencies and regulations including,
but not limited to, the Federal Emergency Management Agency (FEKxA) and the U.S. Housing and Urban
Development Administration (HUD), that would accelerate the flow of aid to local governments to respond to natural
disasters and other emergencies. The Board finds that timely disbursement of federal aid would accelerate the
recovery process, provide rapid stabilization and bolster future resiliency; and
WHEREAS, the Board supports recurring and increased funding for the state's film grant program to continue
attracting film projects that move rapidly and consider numerous locations for productions. The film industry
supports nearly 1000 local jobs and is o significant contributor to the omunt/s economy. The Board further
encourages legislative efforts and opportunities to improve or expand the program; and
WHEREAS, the Board supports a statewide school capital commitment of no less than $2 billion at the earliest
possible time in accordance with state statutes. New Hanover County and its school system have identified more
than $400 million of school construction and maintenance needs over the next several years. The taxpayers of the
county are best served if the state authorizes a statewide school capital commitment with a fair share allocated to
New Hanover County schools to aid in its real and pronounced school construction needs; and
WHEREAS, the Board supports the state returning to the original Education Lottery formula that set aside 40 percent
for capital needs. The state currently caps the amount oflottery funds that go toward the Public School Building
Capital Fund at $100 million annually. Returning to the originally conceived formula would net almost $400miUion
for critical school infrastructure needs; and
WHEREAS, the Board supports a federally supported expansion of Medicaid to insure those not eligible for subsidies
through the federal healthcare exchange. Asmanyas16,O00uninsunedNewHanove County residents could receive
health coverage through Medicaid expansion. The Board finds that Medicaid expansion would lead to fair, equitable
and cost effective health care services for those whose employers do not provide health insurance; and
WHEREAS, the Board supports increased federal and state funding to address mental health and substance use
disorder support and treatment; and
WHEREAS, the Board supports the state reinstating its financial support for drug treatment courts. The county has
operated adrug treatment court successfully since the state withdrew funding for treatment courts in 2011 by fully
funding, at an expense of more than $1.5 million since 2011, and staffing a drug treatment and DWI court for county
residents. Treatment courts are an extension of the judicial system, and the state has the primary duty to fund the
court system and its associated services; and
WHEREAS, the Board supports fair and equitable funding through the North Carolina Department of Transportation
(NCDOT) for infrastructure to support New Hanover County's transportation needs as the county continues to rapidly
grow. The Board finds that appropriate NCDOT support, and developing additional and alternative revenue sources
beyond fuel taxes, will help provide the necessary infrastructure toaccommodate an increasing population and
address the Board's priorities to encourage an increased stock of affordable and workplace housing; and
WHEREAS, the Board supports increased state funding to provide equitable salary increases to recruit and retain all
instructional and support staff at community colleges, including Cape Fear Community College.
NOW, THEREFORE, BE IT RESOLVED, that the New Hanover County Board of Commissioners considers these,among
others, asimportant priorities for representatives atthe state and federal |eve|toaddnssin3U23and3U24.
