Adoption of American Rescue Plan Act Coronavirus Local Fiscal Recovery Funds (ARP/CSLFRF) Specific Policies
BRIEF SUMMARY:
New Hanover County has received two grants from the North Carolina Department of Environmental Quality
(NCDEQ) related to the Pumpkin Creek Watershed and Acorn Branch Watershed, totaling $250,000 and $150,000,
respectively. This funding was Coronavirus State and Local Fiscal Recovery Funds of H.R. 1319 American Rescue Plan
Act of 2021(ARP/CSLFRF) funding passed through the State of North Carolina.
One of the NCDEQ requirements is for the County to have certain standalone policies related specifically to
ARP/CSLFRF. These policies generally relate to rules around the spending of the grant funds, such as the type of costs
that the funds can be spent on, and underlying rules such as conflicts of interest. The policies that staff is
recommending for adoption are consistent with existing county policies. However, as previously noted, we have been
asked to adopt specific and separate ARP/CSLFRF policies as part of these grants. Here is a listing of the proposed
ARP/CSLFRF policies, and the full policies are provided as attachments.
* Allowable Costs and Costs Principles Policy
* Conflict of Interest Policy
* Eligible Use Policy
* Nondiscrimination Policy
* Record Retention Policy
Please note this does not impact previous ARP/CSLFRF funds the County has expended, as the necessary requirements
were followed.

RECOMMENDED MOTION AND REQUESTED ACTIONS:

ALLOWABLE COSTS AND COSTS PRINCIPLES POLICY FOR ARP/CSLFRF
OVERVIEW
Title 2 U.S. Code of Federal Regulations Part 200, Uniform Administrative Requirements, Cost Principles, and Audit
Requirements for Federal Awards, commonly called Uniform Guidance (UG), specifically Subpart E, defines those
items of cost that are allowable, and which are unallowable. The tests of allowability under these principles are: (a)
the costs must be reasonable; (b) they must be allocable to eligible projects under the Coronavirus State and Local
Fiscal Recovery Funds of H.R. 1319 American Rescue Plan Act of 2021 (ARP/CSLFRF); (c) they must be given
consistent treatment through application of those generally accepted accounting principles appropriate to the
circumstances; and (d) they must conform to any limitations or exclusions set forth in these principles or in the
ARP/CSLFRF grant award as to types or amounts of cost items. Unallowable items fall into two categories:
expenses which are by their nature unallowable (e.g., alcohol), and unallowable activities (e.g., fund raising).
New Hanover County shall adhere to all applicable cost principles governing the use of federal grants. This policy
addresses the proper classification of both direct and indirect charges to ARP/CSLFRF funded projects and enacts
procedures to ensure that proposed and actual expenditures are consistent with the ARP/CSLFRF grant award
terms and all applicable federal regulations in the UG.
Responsibility for following these guidelines lies with the Finance Grants and Project Analyst, who are charged with
the administration and financial oversight of the ARP/CSLFRF. Further, all local government employees and officials
who are involved in obligating, administering, expending, or monitoring ARP/CSLFRF grant funded projects should
be well versed with the categories of costs that are generally allowable and unallowable. Questions on the
allowability of costs should be directed to the Finance Grants and Project Analyst. As questions on allowability of
certain costs may require interpretation and judgment, local government personnel are encouraged to ask for
assistance in making those determinations.
GENERAL COST ALLOWABILITY CRITERIA
All costs expended using ARP/CSLFRF funds must meet the following general criteria:
1. Be necessary and reasonable for the proper and efficient performance and administration of the grant
program.
A cost must be necessary to achieve a project objective. When determining whether a cost is necessary,
consideration may be given to:
o Whether the cost is needed for the proper and efficient performance of the grant project.
o Whether the cost is identified in the approved project budget or application.
o Whether the cost aligns with identified needs based on results and findings from a needs
assessment.
o Whether the cost addresses project goals and objectives and is based on program data.
A cost is reasonable if, in its nature and amount, it does not exceed that which would be incurred by a
prudent person under the circumstances prevailing at the time the decision to incur the cost was made.
For example, reasonable means that sound business practices were followed, and purchases were
comparable to market prices. When determining reasonableness of a cost, consideration must be given
to:
Board of Commissioners - August 19, 2024
ITEM: 4 - 1 - 1
o Whether the cost is a type generally recognized as ordinary and necessary for the operation of
New Hanover County or the proper and efficient performance of the federal award.
o The restraints or requirements imposed by factors, such as: sound business practices; arm's-
length bargaining; federal, state, and other laws and regulations; and terms and conditions of the
ARP/CSLFRF award.
o Market prices for comparable goods or services for the geographic area.
o Whether individuals concerned acted with prudence in the circumstances considering their
responsibilities to New Hanover County, its employees, the public at large, and the federal
government.
o Whether New Hanover County significantly deviates from its established practices and policies
regarding the incurrence of costs, which may unjustifiably increase the ARP/CSLFRF award's cost.
2. Be allocable to the ARP/CSLFRF federal award. A cost is allocable to the ARP/CSLFRF award if the goods
or services involved are chargeable or assignable to the ARP/CSLFRF award in accordance with the relative
benefit received. This means that the ARP/CSLFRF grant program derived a benefit in proportion to the
funds charged to the program. For example, if 50 percent of a local government program officer's salary is
paid with grant funds, then the local government must document that the program officer spent at least
50 percent of his/her time on the grant program.
If a cost benefits two or more projects or activities in proportions that can be determined without undue
effort or cost, the cost must be allocated to the projects based on the proportional benefit. If a cost
benefits two or more projects or activities in proportions that cannot be determined because of the
interrelationship of the work involved, then the costs may be allocated or transferred to benefitted
projects on any reasonable documented basis. Where the purchase of equipment or other ca pital asset is
specifically authorized by the ARP/CSLFRF, the costs are assignable to the Federal award regardless of the
use that may be made of the equipment or other capital asset involved when no longer needed for the
purpose for which it was originally required.
3. Be authorized and not prohibited under state or local laws or regulations.
4. Conform to any limitations or exclusions set forth in the principles, federal laws, ARP/CSLFRF award
terms, and other governing regulations as to types or amounts of cost items.
5. Be consistent with policies, regulations, and procedures that apply uniformly to both the ARP/CSLFRF
federal award and other activities of New Hanover County.
6. Be accorded consistent treatment. A cost MAY NOT be assigned to a federal award as a direct cost and be
charged to a federal award as an indirect cost. And a cost must be treated consistently for both federal
award and non-federal award expenditures.
7. Be determined in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles (GAAP), unless provided
otherwise in the UGG.
8. Be net of all applicable credits. The term "applicable credits" refers to those receipts or reduction of
expenditures that operate to offset or reduce expense items allocable to the federal award. Typical
examples of such transactions are purchase discounts; rebates or allowances; recoveries or indemnities
on losses; and adjustments of overpayments or erroneous charges. To the extent that such credits
accruing to and received by the local government related to the federal award, they shall be credited to
the ARP/CSLFRF award, either as a cost reduction or a cash refund, as appropriate and consistent with the
award terms.
Board of Commissioners - August 19, 2024
ITEM: 4 - 1 - 2
9. Be adequately documented.
SELECTED ITEMS OF COST
The UGG examines the allowability of fifty-five (55) specific cost items (commonly referred to as Selected Items of
Cost) at 2 CFR § 200.420-.475.
The Finance Grants and Project Analyst is responsible for determining cost allowability must be familiar with the
Selected Items of Cost. New Hanover County must follow the applicable regulations when charging these specific
expenditures to the ARP/CSLFRF grant. The Finance Grants and Project Analyst will check costs against the
selected items of cost requirements to ensure the cost is allowable and that all process and documentation
requirements are followed. In addition, State laws, New Hanover County regulations, and program -specific rules
may deem a cost as unallowable, and the Finance Grants and Project Analyst must follow those non-federal rules
as well.
Exhibit A identifies and summarizes the Selected Items of Cost.
DIRECT AND INDIRECT COSTS
Allowable and allocable costs must be appropriately classified as direct or indirect charges. It is essential that each
item of cost be treated consistently in like circumstances either as a direct or an indirect cost.
Direct costs are expenses that are specifically associated with a particular ARP/CSLFRF-eligible project and that can
be directly assigned to such activities relatively easily with a high degree of accuracy. Common examples of direct
costs include salary and fringe benefits of personnel directly involved in undertaking an eligible project, equipment
and supplies for the project, subcontracted service provider, or other materials consumed or expended in the
performance of a grant -eligible project.
Indirect costs are (1) costs incurred for a common or joint purpose benefitting more than one ARP/CSLFRF-eligible
project, and (2) not readily assignable to the project specifically benefited, without effort disproportionate to the
results achieved. They are expenses that benefit more than one project or even more than one federal grant.
Common examples of indirect costs include utilities, local telephone charges, shared office supplies, administrative
or secretarial salaries.
For indirect costs, New Hanover County may charge a 10 percent de minimis rate of modified total direct costs
(MTDC). According to UGG Section 200.68 MTDC means all direct salaries and wages, applicable fringe benefits,
materials and supplies, services, travel, and up to the first $25,000 of each subaward (regardless of the period of
performance the subawards under the award). MTDC EXCLUDES equipment, capital expenditures, charges for
patient care, rental costs, tuition remission, scholarships and fellowships, participant support costs and the portion
of each subaward in excess of $25,000.
SPECIAL PROVISIONS FOR STATE AND LOCAL GOVERNMENTS
There are some special provisions of the UG that apply only to states, local governments, and Indian Tribes.
§ 200.444 General costs of government.
(a) For states, local governments, and Indian Tribes, the general costs of government are unallowable
(except as provided in § 200.475). Unallowable costs include:
(1) Salaries and expenses of the Office of the Governor of a state or the chief executive of a local
government or the chief executive of an Indian tribe;
(2) Salaries and other expenses of a state legislature, tribal council, or similar local governmental body,
such as a county supervisor, city council, school board, etc., whether incurred for purposes of
legislation or executive direction;
Board of Commissioners - August 19, 2024
ITEM: 4 - 1 - 3
(3) Costs of the judicial branch of a government;
(4) Costs of prosecutorial activities unless treated as a direct cost to a specific program if authorized by
statute or regulation (however, this does not preclude the allowability of other legal activities of the
Attorney General as described in § 200.435); and
(5) Costs of other general types of government services normally provided to the general public, such
as fire and police, unless provided for as a direct cost under a program statute or regulation.
(b) For Indian tribes and Councils of Governments (COGS) (see definition for Local government in
200.1 of this part), up to 50% of salaries and expenses directly attributable to managing and
operating Federal programs by the chief executive and his or her staff can be included in the indirect cost
calculation without documentation.
§ 200.41E COST ALLOCATION PLANS AND INDIRECT COST PROPOSALS.
(a) For states, local governments and Indian tribes, certain services, such as motor pools, computer
centers, purchasing, accounting, etc., are provided to operating agencies on a centralized basis. Since
Federal awards are performed within the individual operating agencies, there needs to be a process
whereby these central service costs can be identified and assigned to benefitted activities on a reasonable
and consistent basis. The central service cost allocation plan provides that process.
(b) Individual operating agencies (governmental department or agency), normally charge Federal awards
for indirect costs through an indirect cost rate. A separate indirect cost rate(s) proposal for each operating
agency is usually necessary to claim indirect costs under Federal awards. Indirect costs include:
(1) The indirect costs originating in each department or agency of the governmental unit carrying out
Federal awards and
(2) The costs of central governmental services distributed through the central service cost allocation
plan and not otherwise treated as direct costs.
(c) The requirements for development and submission of cost allocation plans (for central service costs
and public assistance programs) and indirect cost rate proposals are contained in appendices V, VI and VII
to this part.
§ 200.417 INTERAGENCY SERVICE.
The cost of services provided by one agency to another within the governmental unit may include
allowable direct costs of the service plus a pro -rated share of indirect costs. A standard indirect cost
allowance equal to ten percent of the direct salary and wage cost of providing the service (excluding
overtime, shift premiums, and fringe benefits) may be used in lieu of determining the actual indirect costs
of the service. These services do not include centralized services included in central service cost allocation
plans as described in Appendix V to Part 200.
COST ALLOWABILITY REVIEW PROCESS
PREAPPROVAL COST ALLOWABILITY REVIEW
Board of Commissioners - August 19, 2024
ITEM: 4 - 1 - 4
Before an ARP/CSLFRF-funded project is authorized, the Finance Grants and Project Analyst must review the
proposed cost items within an estimated project budget to determine whether they are allowable and allocable
and whether cost items will be charged as direct or indirect expenses. This review will occur concurrently with the
review of project eligibility and before obligating or expending any ARP/CSLFRF funds.
• Local government personnel must submit proposed ARP/CSLFRF projects to the Finance Grants and
Project Analyst for review. In addition to other required information, all proposed project submissions
must delineate estimated costs by cost item.
• Along with a general review of project eligibility and conformance with other governing board
management directives, if required the Finance Grants and Project Analyst must review estimated costs
for specific allowable cost requirements, budget parameters, indirect rates, fringe benefit rates, and those
activities/costs that require pre -approval by the US Treasury.
• If a proposed project includes a request for an unallowable cost, the Finance Grants and Project Analyst
will return the proposal to the requesting party for review and, if practicable, resubmission with corrected
cost items.
• Once a proposed project budget is pre -approved by the Finance Grants and Project Analyst, the local
government personnel responsible for implementing the project must conform actual obligations and
expenditures to the pre -approved project budget.
POST -EXPENDITURE COST ALLOWABILITY REVIEW
Once an expenditure is incurred related to an eligible project, and an invoice or other demand for payment is
submitted to the local government, the Finance Grants and Project Analyst must perform a second review to
ensure that actual expenditures comprise allowable costs.
• All invoices or other demands for payment must include a breakdown by cost item. The cost items should
mirror those presented in the proposed budget for the project. If an invoice or other demand for payment
does not include a breakdown by cost item, the Finance Grants and Project Analyst will return the invoice
to the project manager and/or vendor, contractor, or subrecipient for correction.
• The Finance Grants and Project Analyst must review the individual cost items listed on the invoice or
other demand for payment to determine their allowability and allocability.
• If all cost items are deemed allowable and properly allocable, the Finance Grants and Project Analyst must
proceed through the local government's normal disbursement process.
• If any cost item is deemed unallowable, the Finance Grants and Project Analyst will notify the project
management and/or vendor, contractor, or subrecipient that a portion of the invoice or other demand for
payment will not be paid with ARP/CSLFRF funds. The Finance Grants and Project Analyst may in their
discretion, and consistent with this policy, allow an invoice or other demand for payment to be
resubmitted with a revised cost allocation. If the local government remains legally obligated by contract
or otherwise to pay the disallowed cost item, it must identify other local government funds to cover the
disbursement. New Hanover County's governing board must approve any allocation of other funds for
this purpose.
Board of Commissioners - August 19, 2024
ITEM: 4 - 1 - 5
• The Finance Grants and Project Analyst must retain appropriate documentation of budgeted cost items
per project and actual obligations and expenditures of cost items per project.
COST TRANSFERS
Any costs charged to the ARP/CSLFRF federal award that do not meet the allowable cost criteria must be removed
from the award account and charged to an account that does not require adherence to federal UGG or other
applicable guidelines.
Failure to adequately follow this policy and related procedures could result in questioned costs, audit findings,
potential repayment of disallowed costs and discontinuance of funding.
Adopted this the 19th day of August, 2024.

ITEM: 4 - 2 - 3
or administration of a Contract or Subaward if such Covered Individual has a real or
apparent conflict of interest.
1. Real Conflict of Interest. A real conflict of interest shall exist when the Covered
Individual or any Related Party has a financial or other interest in or a tangible
personal benefit from a firm considered for a Contract or Subaward. Exhibit A
attached hereto provides a non -exhaustive list of examples of (i) financial or
other interests in a firm considered for a Contract or Subaward, and (ii) tangible
personal benefits from a firm considered for a Contract or Subaward.
2. Apparent Conflict of Interest. An apparent conflict of interest shall exist where
a real conflict of interest may not exist under Section IV(b)(i)(1), but where a

existing situation or relationship creates the appearance that a Covered
Individual or any Related Party has a financial or other interest in or a tangible
personal benefit from a firm considered for a Contract or Subaward.
ii. Identification and Management of Conflicts of Interest.
1. Duty to Disclose and Disclosure Forms
a. Each Covered Individual expected to be or actually involved in the
selection, award, or administration of a Contract or Subaward has an
ongoing duty to disclose to the COI Point of Contact potential real or
apparent conflicts of interest arising under this Policy.
b. Prior to the Unit's award of a Contract or Subaward, the COI Point of
Contact shall advise Covered Individuals expected to be involved in the
selection, award, or administration of the Contract or Subaward of such
duty.

contained in Exhibit C (for Contracts) and Exhibit E (for Subawards) from
each Covered Individual and file such Conflict of Interest Disclosure
Form in records of the Unit.

a. Prior to the Unit's award of a Contract or Subaward, the COI Point of
Contact shall complete the appropriate Compliance Checklist contained
in Exhibit B (for Contracts) and Exhibit D (for Subawards) attached

a. If, after completing the Compliance Checklist, the COI Point of Contact
identifies a potential real or apparent conflict of interest relating to a
proposed Contract or Subaward, the COI Point of Contact shall disclose
al
Board of Commissioners - August 19, 2024
ITEM: 4 - 2 - 4
such finding in writing to the County Attorney and to each member of
the Governing Board. If the Governing Board desires to enter into the
proposed Contract or Subaward despite the identification by the COI
Point of Contact of a potential real or apparent conflict of interest, it
may either:
accept the finding of the COI Point of Contact and direct the
COI Point of Contact to obtain authorization to enter into the
Contract or Subaward from (a) if Unit is a Recipient of
ARP/CSLFRF funds, the Federal awarding agency with
appropriate mitigation measures, or (b) if Unit is a Subrecipient
of ARP/CSLFRF funds, from the Pass -Through Entity that
provided a Subaward to Unit; or
ii. reject the finding of the COI Point of Contact and enter into the
Contract or Subaward. In rejecting any finding of the COI Point
of Contact, the Governing Board shall in writing document a
justification supporting such rejection.
b. If the COI Point of Contact does not identify a potential real or apparent
conflict of interest relating to a proposed Contract or Subaward, the
Unit may enter into the Contract or Subaward in accordance with the
Unit's purchasing or subaward policy.
4. Identification After Award of Contract or Subaward.
a. If the COI Point of Contact discovers that a real or apparent conflict of
interest has arisen after the Unit has entered into a Contract or
Subaward, the COI Point of Contact shall, as soon as possible, disclose
such finding to the Attorney and to each member of the Governing
Board. Upon discovery of such a real or apparent conflict of interest,
the Unit shall cease all payments under the relevant Contract or
Subaward until the conflict of interest has been resolved.
5. Management After Award of Contract or Subaward.
a. Following the receipt of such disclosure of a potential real or apparent
conflict of interest pursuant to Section IV(b)(ii)(4) , the Governing Board
may reject the finding of the COI Point of Contact by documenting in
writing a justification supporting such rejection. If the Governing Board
fails to reject the finding of the COI Point of Contact within 15 days of
receipt, the COI Point of Contact shall:
i. if Unit is a Recipient of ARP/CSLFRF funds funding the Contract

NEW HANOVER COUNTY
ELIGIBLE USE POLICY FOR ARP/CSLFRF
This policy defines the permissible and prohibited uses of the Coronavirus State and Local Fiscal Recovery Funds of
H.R. 1319 American Rescue Plan Act of 2021 (ARP/CSLFRF) funds. It also outlines the procedures for determining
how New Hanover County will spend its ARP/CSLFRF funds.
PERMISSIBLE USES OF ARP/CSLFRF FUNDING
US Treasury issued its Final Rule regarding use of ARP/CSLFRF funds on January 6, 2022. Treasury subsequently
released an Interim Final Rule related to certain additional eligible expenditures, referred to as ARP/CSLFRF-Flex.
The Final Rule (and the Interim Final Rule) identify permissible uses of ARP/CSLFRF funds and certain limitations and
process requirements. Local governments must allocate most ARP/CSLFRF funds no later than December 31, 2024
and disburse all funding no later than December 31, 2026. (For certain Title I and Surface Transportation projects,
expenditures must occur no later than September 30, 2026.) Failure of an entity to obligate and expend all funds by
these deadlines will result in forfeiture of ARP/CSLFRF funds.
ARP/CSLFRF funds may be used for projects within the following categories of expenditures:
1. Support COVID-19 public health expenditures, by funding COVID-19 mitigation and prevention efforts,
medical expenses, behavioral healthcare, preventing and responding to violence, and certain public health
and safety staff;
2. Address negative economic impacts caused by the public health emergency, including economic harms to
workers, households, small businesses, non -profits, impacted industries, and the public sector;
3. Replace lost public sector revenue, using this funding to provide government services to the extent of the
reduction in revenue experienced due to the pandemic;
4. Provide premium pay for essential workers, offering additional support to those who have borne and will
bear the greatest health risks because of their service in critical infrastructure sectors; and
5. Invest in water, sewer, and broadband infrastructure, making necessary investments to improve access to
clean drinking water, support vital wastewater and stormwater infrastructure, and to expand access to
broadband internet; and
6. Invest in certain disaster recovery/mitigation projects, Title I projects, and Surface Transportation projects.
II. PROHIBITED USES OF ARPA FUNDING
The ARP/CSLFRF and US Treasury's Final Rule prohibit certain uses of ARP/CSLFRF funds. Specifically, ARP/CSLFRF
funds may not be used for projects within the following categories of expenditures:
1. To make a deposit into a pension fund that constitutes an extraordinary payment of an accrued,
unfunded liability (Note that routine contributions as part of a payroll obligation for an eligible
project are allowed.);
2. To borrow money or make debt service payments;
3. To replenish rainy day funds or fund other financial reserves;
4. To satisfy an obligation arising from a settlement agreement, judgment, consent decree, or judicially
confirmed debt restricting in a judicial, administrative, or regulatory proceeding (There is an
exception to this prohibition if the settlement or judgment requires the [Local Government Name] to
provide services to respond to the COVID-19 public health emergency or its negative economic
Board of Commissioners - August 19, 2024
ITEM: 4 - 3 - 1
impacts or to provide government services, then the costs of those otherwise ARP/CSLFRF-eligible
projects are allowed.);
5. For a project that includes a term or condition that undermines efforts to stop the spread of COVID-
19 or discourages compliance with recommendations and guidelines in CDC guidance for stopping the
spread of COVID-19;
6. In violation of the conflict -of -interest requirements imposed by the award terms and 2 CFR
200.318(c).
7. For any expenditure that would violate other applicable federal, state, and local laws and regulations.
New Hanover County, and any of its contractors or subrecipients, may not expend any ARP/CSLFRF funds for these
purposes.
III. PROCEDURES FOR PROJECT APPROVAL
The following are procedures for ARP/CSLFRF project approvals. All New Hanover County employees and officials
must comply with these requirements.
1. Requests for ARP/CSLFRF funding, must be made in writing and include all the following:
a. Brief description of the project
b. Identification of ARP/CSLFRF Expenditure Category (EC) (A list of ECs in in the Appendix to the US
Treasury Compliance and Reporting Guidance.)
c. Required justifications for applicable projects, according to the requirements in the Final Rule.
Employees or any applicant seeking ARP funding should review the Final Rule, Final Rule
Overview, and ARP/CSLFRF-Flex Interim Final Rule, and Interim Final Rule Overview prior to
submitting a proposal.
d. Proposed budget, broken down by cost item, in accordance with the New Hanover County's
Allowable Cost Policy.
e. A project implementation plan and estimated implementation timeline
2. Requests for funding must be submitted to the Finance Grants and Project Analyst for approval. All
requests will be reviewed by the Finance Grants and Project Analyst for ARP/CSLFRF compliance and for
allowable costs and other financial review.
3. No ARP/CSLFRF may be obligated or expended before final written approval by the Finance Grants and
Project Analyst.
4. If a proposal does not meet the required criteria, it will be returned to the requesting party for revision
and resubmittal.
5. Following approval, employees responsible for implementing the project must conform actual obligations
and expenditures to the pre -approved project budget. Changes in project budgets must be approved by
Finance Grants and Project Analyst and may require a budget amendment before proceeding. Any delay
in the projected project completion date shall be communicated to the Finance Grants and Project
Analyst immediately.
6. The Finance Grants and Project Analyst must collect and document required information for each EC, for
purposes of completing the required Project and Expenditure reports.
7. The Finance Grants and Project Analyst must maintain written project requests and approvals, all
supporting documentation, and financial information until at least 5 years after all the ARP/CSLFRF funds
are expended or returned to US Treasury.
Adopted this the 19th day of August, 2024.

SECTION 1.
DEFINITIONS
Agreement means this document, the Alert and Notification System Mutual Aid Agreement.
Aid and Assistance includes, but shall not be limited to, personnel, equipment, facilities, services, supplies, and other
resources.
Alert Originator (AO): An Alert Originator is a person at the keyboard/screen composing and issuing the alert. The
Alert Originator uses IPAWS in accordance with the Alerting Authority's plans, policies, and procedures to create
and send out emergency messages.
Alert Administrator (AA): In addition to responsibilities assigned to the AO, the Alert Administrator is responsible
for managing the jurisdiction's use and access to IPAWS, coordinating and tracking training of Alert Originators,
managing updates and changes to FEMA IPAWS MOA and other agreements, and ensuring programmatic
compliance with IPAWS requirements.
Alert Authority: An Alerting Authority is a jurisdiction with the designated authority to alert and warn the public
when there is an impending natural or human -made disaster, threat, or dangerous or missing person.
Authorized Representative is an official of a Party to this Agreement who has been authorized by that Party pursuant
to the terms of this Agreement to request, offer, or provide aid and assistance under the terms of this Agreement.
CEM - Civil Emergency Message: Requested by emergency management only. An emergency message regarding an
in -progress or imminent significant threat(s) to public safety and/or property. The CEM is a higher priority message
than the Local Area Emergency (LAE), but the hazard is less specific than the Civil Danger Warning (CDW). For
example, the CEM could be used to describe a change in the Homeland Security Alert System level in response to a
terrorist threat.
CDW - Civil Danger Warning: A message that warns the public of an event that could endanger al large number of
people. CDWs are usually issued by state or local authorities and relayed by the National Weather Service through
the Emergency Alert System (EAS). They often include a specific hazard and protective actions, such as: evacuation,
shelter in place, boiling contaminated water, and seeking medical treatment.
Disaster is any emergency which has been officially declared a "disaster" by gubernatorial or presidential executive
order.
Emergency means any incident or situation that has occurred, is occurring, or will occur in the immediate future that
poses a major threat to public safety and causes or threatens to cause loss of life, serious injury, significant damage to
property, or major harm to public health or the environment, as a result of an occurrence or imminent threat of
widespread or severe damage or loss of life or property resulting from natural, technological, or man-made emergency
situation.
2
Board of Commissioners - August 19, 2024
ITEM: 7 - 1 - 2
Incident means an occurrence, natural or manmade, that necessitates a response to protect life or property. In this
Agreement, the word "incident" includes Planned Events as well as emergencies and/or disasters of kinds and sizes.
LAE - Local Area Emergency: Requested by emergency management personnel only. An emergency message that
defines an event that by itself does not pose a significant threat to public safety and/or property. However, the event
could escalate, contribute to other more serious events, or disrupt critical public safety services. Instructions, other
than public protective actions, may be provided by authorized officials. Examples include: a disruption in water,
electric or natural gas service, road closures due to excessive snowfall, or a potential terrorist threat where the public
is asked to remain alert.
NUW - Nuclear Power Plant Warning: Requested by emergency management and Brunswick Nuclear Power Station
personnel only. Used to alert the public in the 10-mile emergency planning zone (EPZ) of a site area emergency or a
general emergency where specific actions need to be taken. Usually sent in concert with use of the siren system.
Outdoor Warning Sirens (OWS) means the devices used to alert the public to an event in progress whereas the public
should turn on and tune in to radio and television stations to receive information on said event in order to protect
themselves. These warning sirens are maintained by Duke Energy and exist in the 10-mile areas surrounding the
Plant in both Brunswick and New Hanover Counties.
Planned Event means an incident that is a scheduled nonemergency activity including but not limited to elections,
sporting events, concerts, parades, funeral coverage, or fairs.
Political Subdivision means counties and incorporated cities, towns, and villages.
Provider is a Party to this Agreement that has received a request to furnish aid and assistance to the Recipient.
RHW - Radiological Hazard Warning: Requested by emergency management and fire/hazardous material response
teams. A warning of the loss, discovery or release of a radiological material. Examples include: the theft of a
radioactive isotope used for medical, seismic, or other purposes; the discovery of radioactive materials; a
transportation (aircraft, truck or rail, etc.) accident which may involve nuclear weapons, nuclear fuel, or radioactive
wastes. Authorized officials may recommend protective actions to be taken if a radioactive hazard is discovered.
Recipient is a Party to this Agreement receiving aid and assistance from the other Party.
SPW - Shelter in -Place Warning: Requested by emergency management only. A warning of an event where the public
is recommended to shelter in place (go inside, close doors and windows, turn off air conditioning or heating systems,
and turn on the radio or TV for more information). An example is the release of hazardous materials where toxic
fumes or radioactivity may affect designated areas.
Integrated Public Alert and Warning System (IPAWS) is a modernization and integration of the United States' alert
and warning infrastructure. IPAWS integrates new and existing public alert and warning systems and technologies
that allow Federal, State, territorial, tribal, and local government alert and warning systems to integrate with the
national alert and warning infrastructure to provide a broader range of message options and communications pathways
for the delivery of alert and warning information to the people before, during, and after a disaster by providing one
message over more media to more people for the preservation of life and property.
Wireless Emergency Alert (WEA) is a public safety system that allows customers who own compatible mobile
devices to receive geographically targeted, text -like messages alerting them of the imminent threats to safety in their
area. WEA is a partnership among FEMA, the Federal Communications Commission (FCC), and wireless providers
to enhance public safety.

Adoption of Resolution for I LM Airport Hotel Partners
BRIEF SUMMARY:
ILM Airport Hotel Partners, LLC ("ILM Partners") has a sublease to construct and operate a hotel on 4.69 acres of
Airport property. ILM Partners, through its legal counsel McGuire Woods, is requesting the Board adopt a resolution
approving the issuance of bonds to finance the hotel project. If adopted, the resolution will allow I LM Partners to seek
bond financing in Wisconsin from the Public Finance Authority.
The resolution being requested is solely to comply with Wisconsin statutes, which require that the local government
where the financed project is to be located approve the project. This action does not obligate New Hanover County
financially in any way and conveys no zoning or permitting benefits to ILM Partners. As a matter of information, a
hotel is allowed by -right use under the current zoning of this property, and there is an existing site plan approval.
The only effect of the Board adopting this resolution is that it would allow the entity to proceed with public financing
in Wisconsin. In June 2018 and March 2021, the Board approved similar resolutions for the Davis Community
Independent Living Center.

Re: Request for consideration of a resolution authorizing the Public Finance Authority to issue
taxable bonds on behalf of ILM Airport Hotel Partners, LLC at the Board of
Commissioner's meeting on August 19, 2024
Ladies and Gentlemen:
On behalf of ILM Airport Hotel Partners, LLC (the "Borrower"), I am writing to request that the
Board of Commissioners (the "Board") of New Hanover County (the "County") consider the attached
resolution regarding the issuance by the Public Finance Authority (the "Authority") of its revenue bonds
(the "Bonds") for the benefit of the Borrower to finance (i) the costs of acquiring, constructing and
equipping a hotel, (ii) the initial deposits into certain funds and accounts, and (iii) certain expenses incurred
in connection with the issuance of the Bonds (as defined below) (collectively, the "Project").
The Project will be owned and operated by the Borrower and located on 4.69 acres of land leased
by the Borrower from New Hanover County Airport Authority (the "Airport Authority") pursuant to a
Sublease Agreement between the Borrower and the Airport Authority located on Airport Boulevard,
Wilmington, New Hanover County, North Carolina.
Pursuant to Section 66.0304(11)(a) of the Wisconsin Statutes and Section 4 of the Amended and
Restated Joint Exercise of Powers Agreement Relating to the Public Finance Authority dated as of
September 28, 2010 (collectively, the "Authority Requirements"), prior to the issuance of the Bonds by the
Authority, the Borrower is requesting the Board as the highest governing body of the County and the
governmental unit having jurisdiction over the area in which the Project is located, to approve the
Authority's issuance of the Bonds and the financing of the Project in the County.
Accordingly, the Borrower is requesting that the Board consider and approve the attached
resolution. As the Board's approving resolution will expressly state, the Board's approval will in no way
cause the County to become responsible for or liable with respect to the Bonds. Approving the issuance of
the Bonds by the Authority is merely a ministerial act that will enable the Borrower to comply with the
Authority Requirements. A preliminary draft of the Board's approval resolution is attached to this letter.
On behalf of the Borrower, we request that the attached resolution be placed on the Board's agenda
for August 19, 2024. If you have any additional questions, please feel free to contact me. If requested by
the County, a representative from the Borrower and/or from bond counsel can be present at your August
19, 2024, meeting, should you have any questions.

sufficiently detailed to guide appraisers in in appraising real property.
The required Values, Standards, and Rules must be reviewed and approved by the Board of County Commissioners
before January 1 of the year they are to be applied. A copy of the Schedules is presented to the Board of County
Commissioners for review.
The Board is being asked to approve the scheduling of a public hearing on the Schedule of Values during its the regular
meeting on September 16, 2024, at 9:00 AM or thereafter.

Occupation Director of Community Engagement
Applicant's Employer Good Shepherd Center
Professional Activities l am the Director of Community Engagement for Good
Shepherd Center, a local nonprofit whose mission is to feed the
hungry, shelter the homeless, and foster transition to housing.
My responsibilities include the oversight of our Engagement
team and our fundraising, outreach, education and advocacy
efforts around our mission focus areas - food insecurity,
homelessness, and affordable housing.
Volunteer Activities I am an active nnember of the Gape Pear Dousing Coalition, our
regions leading nonpartisan affordable housing advocacy
organization. I am currently the Vice Chair and have served in
a leadership role for 4 years.
I currently serve in several appointed committees on behalf of
New Hanover County (details below) and lead the housing and
complete communities subcommittee for the NHC Master Aging
Flan„ I have served in a volunteer capacity on a number of
topically relevant ad hoc committees, including the Wave
Transit Project Advisory Committee, Wilmington Dousing
Authority Programming Committee, and the WMPO Walk
Wilmington Steering Committee.
Why do you wish to serve on As a nonprofit professional, I spend every day with the
this board or cornrrnittee? residents of this County who are struggling to Deep a roof over
their head or the heads of their children because of our
affordable housing crisis. Their lived experiences motivate me
every day to push for opportunities for more of our community's
residents to enjoy the safety, dignity, and opportunity that only a
stable housing situation can provide. As an advocate, I have
volunteered countless hours within the Cape Pear Dousing
Coalition, attending housing conferences and webinars, and
serving on various local government committees working to
identify and advocate for the funding and policy solutions that
are right -sized for our community and can make a meaningful
impact within the context of the unique challenges of our local
housing market. As a young person who has chosen with my
husband to make New Hanover County our home, I believe it is
iirnportant to be actively involved in local government and offer
the diverse viewpoint of a younger working professional who
themselves has experienced the challenges of our housing
market and witnessed the experiences of friends and
colleagues, rnany of whom have moved away in search of
homeownership opportunities, 'There are not enough voices in

Specifically, pursuing ideas such as eviction mediation

Why do you wish to serve on this board or committee?
I love (libraries.
Against all odds, they survive in a hyper -digital, gig economy as places of wonder and invention.
I'm a particular fain of the New Hanover system, since I have a nearly perfect track record 'rundiing (books. Decently, that includes
Nikon by Stephen Ambrose and Soul City by'rhomas mealy. (Anyone care -to guess at the overlap?) And the New Hanover
Doom continues to be a delight.
If there's something I can do to give back and make it better, I'm on board ----- even If I'm not on the board. But it would be fun to
e on it.
What areas of concern would you like to see addressed by this committee?
The library can use a dose of updating when it comes to technological tools.
Qualifications for serving:
Forty years of experience in journalism, publishing and fflm. And you have all four of my booksl
Other municipal or county boards/committees on which you are serving:
None.
