Invocation Councilwoman Betty Wright gave the Invocation Pledge of Allegiance Mayor Christopher Neal asked everyone to remain standing for the Pledge of Allegiance. Adoption of the Agenda Mayor Neal made a motion to amend the agenda. He would like to add G.S. 143-318-11(a)(5) Real Estate to closed session also move item 9 and 10 on the agenda following item 20; seconded by Councilwoman Woods. The motion passed. Councilman Clancy made a motion that we: move item 14 presentation by LGC, after item 5 due to traveling back to Raleigh; seconded by Councilwoman Wright. The motion passed. Mayor Neal asked for a motion to approve the agenda with the amendments; seconded by Councilman Stover. The motion passed. Approval of the Minutes Mayor Neal asked for a motion to approve the November 12, 2024 Regular and Closed Session minutes and November 25, 2024 Draft Zoning Ordinance Work Shop Discussion Minutes. Councilwoman Stein had a question regarding the regular minutes. Is there any way that we can review the tapes of our meetings regarding the information that was stated when we came out of closed session regarding Councilman Stover's motion? It states in our minutes that he made a motion to remove the part time fire chiefto ai full-time fire chief. She didn'trecall the work remove. She did recall the statement effective immediately regarding the part time fire chiefto a full-time fire chief. Is there any way that we could have some clarification? Mayor Neal stated that we could have the clerk after this session to get clarification on the correction of those minutes. Councilwoman Stien stated that would be wonderful. Councilwoman Stien had another question regarding the closed session minutes as well. She stated there was more information regarding our closed session meeting in the Franklin Times then what was actually put into the minutes. She was wondering, and she understands that they don't have to be verbatim and to give an overview but there was several statements and questions asked during that closed session meeting that she thought that were perhaps relevant, that should have been in the meeting minutes that were perhaps in the newspaper. Is there anyone else feel as though that perhaps there needs to be some clarifications made? Councilman Clancy stated that there were two questions that were asked in closed session that he thought were pertinent that were not in the minutes and he would be glad to discussed in closed session. Councilwoman Stein made a motion to table the minutes from the November 12, 2024 regular and closed session minutes till January 14, 2025 regular meeting and approve the November 25, 2024 Draft Zoning Ordinance Work Shop Discussion minutes; seconded by Councilwoman Wright. The motion passed. Presentation by Local Government Commission Kendra Boyles, director of the fiscal management section for the State and Local Government finance division at the Department of State Treasurer, along with Debbie Tomasco, who is the secretary of the local Government Commission, were both here to provide some background on what the LGC is and what we do. We also serve as the staff to the LGC. Along with many other accountants on staff and also, we. have a debt management section. They do a lot of debt analysis for the units and also handle all bond sales if they're unit needs to issue debt. I would like to talk about responsibilities that you have as the board and then about the financial reporting that's required for units oflocal government in NC and the unit assistance list. The LGC was formed in 1931. It is staffed by the Department of State Treasure, composed of nine members and chaired by the State Treasurer. We are given the authority under GS 159 the one piece oft that authority is that we can require the finance officer or anyone performing those duties to participate in trainings. We can also require that a unit oflocal government hire a third-party bookkeeper or accountant to fulfill the duties of the finance officer. That also applies only specific units as identified in the statue you have there's certain criteria that have to be met in order for that to happen. The third authority we have is to impound the books and records of a local government and assume control of its financial affairs under certain circumstances. We don't take that authority lightly and we have no desire to take control of Town's finances and operations. That's only done as a measure of last resort and through a long course of notice and warning. There are responsibilities of the board members. They have a fiduciary responsibility to the taxpayers to manage the funds of the Town properly. The governing board is ultimately responsible for the finances and fiscal status of your Town. You all play a critical role in the making sure that your Town complies with GS 159. We require audited financial statements. That's part of what' s in the law itself that says financial statements that are done in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles. We take in those audits and we do an analysis ofyour physical health. We also are doing analysis in case you need to issue bonds or debt. We look at that to see ifthat debt is affordable. There are other groups that use those financial statements as well. The general assembly, federal and state agents, other state agencies when they're trying to determine whether you are able to receive some of their funding, receive a grant, those state agencies are going to want to look at your audit financial statements. There are other public associations that will look at them as well. We actually publish associations that will look at them as well. We actually publish the audited finance statements on our website once they've been reviewed and accepted by our offices. G.S. 159 puts together the responsibilities oft the finance officer. It wants to make sure the board has hired a qualified person in the role of a finance officer. They also have to be bonded. There is a change in the bond requirement. It was previously just as a flat $50,000 bond and no matter how much your expenditures were, we recognize that many units would not be protect them from some things because they have SO many expended such high expenditures. Now the law has changed. Bonding requirements its basically the higher of $50,000 or 10% of your expenditures in your annually budgeted funds up to $1,000,000. A person may not be appointed as the finance officer or assume those duties if they cannot be bonded. G.S. 159 allows for a third-party bookkeeper to be hired by the unit to do help with the finances, but someone still has to be tasked with making sure that the third-party bookkeeper or accountant is doing what needs to be done for the unit and that the services that they expect to be provided are being provided. You are required to have an annual independent audit. It is contracted by the governing board. We do have a contract that we ask you to use for that on our website, you know, contract with an ACPA and those that CPA will give an 3 opinion on whether or not they think the financial stalements they've been presented are materially correct. It doesn't mean that everything's perfect, there's no fraud or anything like that. It's what they're giving their opinion on its that they're materially correct that determining whether there's fraud or embezzlement is a totally different type of audit. Those financial statements will present both an economic picture of the organization as well as their financial picture. We haven't been able to do that for the last two years of fiscal years because you have not been able to submit your audit to us. When we do receive your financial statements, there will be something called financial performance indicators of concern. There will be a set of ratios that are measured against thresholds we've set. Ifyou cross those thresholds then they're deemed to be concern. Not every unit has those and you may or may not. Those are identified and your auditor should present them to you. Anything that's deemed to be of concern, we expect a response from the board to tell us how those are going to be addressed. Those responses require the signatures of the majority of1 the board and any if something is a repeat from the prior year, we expect some special attention to that. When we get your financial statements, we'll take that data and we will give you a score and then it will determine whether you remain on the unit assistance list. Right now, you are solely because we don'thave those financial statements. We understand there's challenges and there are units all across the state that are facing the same challenges that you all have had getting those financial statements. Once they are received it will be looked at current and prior year data to calculate some scores on key performance indicators. The categories that will be in are your general, sewer and water. Then we will look at internal controls. Are there policies, procedures and mechanisms in place to safeguard the assets ofthe unit etc. The LGC has the option to override the inclusion and exclusion based on other known facts on a compilation date. When the compilation ofthe audit in June, we didn'thave your audited financial statements because you had never been on the ual and hadn'th had any. There have been a few financial performance indicators, but nothing that couldn't be resolved fairly quick. Therefore, we didn't put Louisburg on in June. Now when we got to November, we were looking at audit reports that had come in by June 30th. There was no other option but to have you on the ual for a while. As of right now there are 145 units on the ual, 14 counties, 127 municipalities and 4 utility authorities. Fifteen ofthose units had never been on the ual, similar to Louisburg. A coach team member is assigned to units that are on the list as well, to help them identify what the issues are and provide them with some support and guidance. A coach team member has met with Mr. Medlin and they have come up with some plans. They are meeting every week. There are some consequences ofbeing on the ual. Ifyou are a unit of local government in NC and you are issuing debt basically the key numbers to remember are for more than five years more than $50,000 then you probably need to go before the LGC to get permission to issue that debt. Ifyou are in the ual it's three years and $50,000. That puts a lot of people in the category of when you're leasing a vehicle, you may have to come before the LGC to get permission to issue that debt. Another thing required is that city and county managers on the ual receive some training. Louisburg is a mayor council form of government which is an administrator. There's a little bit of a loop hole in the law. It doesn't say administrator, it specifically says managers. It is highly recommended that you have your administrator take some training. There is some training available on the LGC website. Another thing that sometimes goes in line with being on the ual if it's because you're late, is you may be subject to Session Law 202359, which is Senate Bill 299, which means that when you get a sales tax distribution. Ifyou are more than 12 months late on providing your audited financial statements to us then. The Commission may decide to withhold apportion of your sales tax distribution until they get your 3 audit report. As a board you can set the tone at the top and make sure that you provide appropriate funds and for adequate staffing and training for your finance director. The Town is struggling with finding a finance officer, we really encourage you to realize that this is a key role in the operation of your unit of government. Some units use a third-party accountant to actually take your accounting records from your software to prepare their financial statements. Be sure to hold them accountable. The middleman is usually the reason for late financial statements being turned in on time. This could be used as a learning experience as well. Please don't treat it as a burden. You can learn a lot from and understand how your priorities in budgeting, how they can be reflected in your audited financial statements. She then asked if the Board had any questions: 1) We are supposed to make a major decision tonight between the county and the Town of Louisburg, and it's going to require the Town to spend money. Are you saying that we can't go borrow money? It depends on what the project is. Are you going to have to borrow money in order to fund that project. The project should we spend $1,000,000. Do we have $1,000,000 in the bank? Let's say hypothetically. I thought we were responsible for moving infrastructure and redoing power lines. Can we go borrow the money or do we have the money in the bank to spend to do? If the expenditure is in the budget you have to have a source to be able to spend that money ifthe source is the issuance of debt. Depending on what it is, it may have to come before the LGC for the approval of the debt. Hopefully after tonight we will have a much clearer understanding for the board. 2) It was mentioned that you will be looking at our water and sewer? Also, monies we have another enterprise, one of electrical funds. Currently that won't: facture into your determination of whether you're on the unit assistance list, but it is part of our overall financial review. If there's something that we see that's concerning then we would. If there is something that it is found it would probably come up as a financial performance indicator of concern as ai result ofyour audited financial statements. We would expect to have a response as to how you're going to fix those concerns, how you're going to address them. 3) Hypothetically in January we provide one of our two audits. Does that take us offi the list or is there still a process thereafter? There: is still a process thereafter. It will definitely help because we'lll have your 23-audit report in the 24 was due October 31St. Just being depending on what the fiscal year 23 says. We would still want to get in your fiscal year 24, but we would definitely be assessing things at that point.4) There is a concern is that you've been working with Mr. Medlin for the last few weeks and this is the first that we have heard about this. Is this something that the Council should have been notified of? There was a letter sent to Mr. Medlin and Mayor Neal regarding what had been talked about internally is that we should make sure that we get that letter out to the entire board of units that are on the unit assistance list. It was mentioned again that there were emails sent out to Mr. Medlin and Mayor Neal in August and another later. It was also mentioned the concern with some making the budget look balanced.5) We understand that we're on this list because of our audits being late, but will you be looking at the fact that perhaps we're spending outside of our budget? G.S. 159 requires a balanced budget and it requires that you not expend, that you not over expend in any ofthe at the budgeting level. Now that there is a plan in place with Mr. Medlin and LGC representative of meeting once a week just to talk about the progress that's got a lot of potential to make sure that things get taken care of quickly. Public Comment 1. William Mitchell 128 Edgewood Dr., after hearing the report from the LGC he didn't know what to say. It takes a village to raise a nut, and you are all a bunch of nuts. He has bragged about this little Town for the last 20 years and how neat this little community is. It's a 4 wonderful place to live but collectively as a board you are destroying this Town. He has written budgets for the last 20 years for local government and have never heard of someone not getting it in on time. He wanted to ask a question because he is here to represent my concern with the fire department. He then asked the board if they know what a spanner wrench was, how many fire hydrants there were in Town, what the flow rate is for a fire hydrant? He gathered that the board didn't have a damn clue about fire service, and apparently you can't manage my tax money. Collectively, you make decisions. To remove our chief with nothing in place for leadership. This is absolutely absurd. Guarantee ifI ask Dr Stover how many joints in the foot, he would know that answer. Because ofMr. Lanham's leadership the fire department received their Class 2 Certification. Apparently, some of you have a lot of disdain for the Town employees. Did you know that there's one ofy'all? He did not want to embarrass anybody SO he didn't say any names. Now you want to make decisions that you think are best for us, and we have no chief. Then you appoint an interim interim. What the hell is that? I have been in law enforcement 33 years and I have never seen a situation where a public service agency without leadership. If you think that a Town can manage by losing your career firefighters, your wrong. 2. Ori Hamilton 925 Window Crest Drive; I1 believe all ofyou know why I am here. Some or one ofy'all have attempted to intimidate us. I don't know which one it is, but it was one ofy'all. He presented a 7-page resignation and it stated in there the corruption that's withheld in the Town. The last meeting you voted the chief out. Although you won't give out the reason but we all know the reason why. It's because your feelings got hurt in October's meeting. On the other note, I know for a fact, Mayor Neal, that you were informed prior to you going to the newspaper that it was false information and given documentation to prove that it was false information regarding the illicit photo that you refer to. The Town has left this entire Town, all the citizens, but essentially without leadership. He referred to the captain as an interim interim Can anyone please explain to me what that is? Everything that's happened, prime example, local government has to come in here to essentially put them on probation because they're not handling our taxes. You're spending money, we're paying taxes .50 on the dollar that I believe is .50 on the dollar, and they can't even manage it right. Three minutes was up. 3. Freddie Edwards 121 Edgewood Drive; In reference in closing W Johnson Street, I am a business owner where W Johnson ends. I am not here tonight speaking on behalf of my business but for the Town. Johnson Street is a great benefit. We have already been told that we don't matter. So now I'm speaking from a different perspective from the Town if you will. Please just in your mind, visualize an overhead early shot of downtown Louisburg. I think you can clearly see downtown business district. We have 4 blocks. Now, in that same picture, in your mind, erase Johnson St. What do we have now. Three blocks is our entire business district downtown. The county and loosely affiliated things to county business will own half of Louisburg downtown affiliated. I mean businesses that will come because ofthe lawyers, and other business associated things. You've given away the park once you put up a three-story building. It will not be downtown Louisburg anymore. Land was given to the Town that's adjacent to the park sO that the Town could develop its park and the river wall. Will you give the land pack now SO that they don't have a park and we won't have a river walk? The businesses that are downtown, referring to the main corner, nobody's going to come downtown. To invest millions of dollars in a new business. Property owners down there will - not be able to rent the office space out to anybody except lawyers. He loves the Town and also Louisburg High School. He is not in favor of the courthouse. He believes it could be built without closing that street. He taught drafting at the high school and he could almost draw out the plans. He has attended all the meetings regarding the closure of the street and has listen to a lot of citizens express their conçerns of closing the street. His three minutes was up. Public Hearing Mayor Neal asked for a motion to go into Public Hearing. Councilman Clancy made the motion to go into public hearing; seconded by Councilman Stover. The motion passed without objection. Philip Slayter, Special Projects Administrator said that the Towns principal land use regulatory tool, zoning is how property is developed. It implements the vision provided in another policy document called the Comprehensive Plan. While the Town has updated its Comprehensive Plan, it has not prepared a comprehensive revision to its zoning ordinance since 1977. Also, while amendments have been made over the years to address specific needs over time, it remains largely deficient in addressing current development trends. Town staff in cooperation with a planning consultant, have prepared a new ordinance that realigns to ordinance to the 2030 Comprehensive Plan as well as current development practices. Staff conducted a public input review session in October followed by review and approval by the Planning Board in November. A workshop was conducted on November 25th to brief Council on the new ordinance. It was asked from the Board about the governmental exemption part ofit regarding the governmental agencies. Mr. Slayter said it's narrowly defined. State lawis prescriptive. It governs how cities and counties have to develop these ordinances and controls what we can and cannot do. There are some exemptions that are under state law. Depending on what specific situation you may know you want to raise, there some things that we can do, others that we can't. Since we are allowing some access free dwellings, is there something that we can integrate? Is there something that we could do to make it SO that when you have a large scope of a size land, that we don'thave to worry about things like road frontage? What would be the difference of having road frontage to a lot that is primarily meant to afford public services and public safety. Mr. Slayter replied ifyou have a situation where they don'thave legal access, there is a variety of problems that arise from that. That's S the principal reason why you want to have access to a public road because it sets up a situation where as the property is transferred to other folks' access could become a legal question. To your question that there's nothing that stops us from setting up a mechanism where ifyou chose in certain areas to allow two dwelling units per lot, you could do that. In fact, that's what an accessory dwelling does. The difference is with an accessory dwelling unit, it's not the same size as the principal structure, its smaller. If what you're advocating is something larger that's well within our scope to change or to do, I would encourage council if that's the case you can always make changes to the zoning ordinance. It changes depending on the development trends and what's going on around us. If something coms up you can always amend the document. It was stated that there is nothing we can put in our zoning book that would make them use our Town utilities, right? This is a separate code issue. State Law governs how you extend utility services. An example power, because we're a public power state law governs within certain guidelines, whether the Town can assert the right to extend or to give power, or whether an option exists for the property owner to go with an alternate provider, the issue with water and sewer is if you're within 500 feet and you're in the Town limits then we can make you tie on. As a practical matter, when developers develop property, they almost always want the Towns utilities. You are not required to extend it, however. That'sa choice, that's a policy decision you get to make. Most develops, if they want to do a development of any size and scope, its required. Mayor Neal asked for a motion to close public hearing. Councilwoman Wright made the motion to close public hearing; seconded by Councilwoman Baker. The motion passed without objection. Adoption of an Ordinance Repealing the 1997 Amended Zoning Ordinance and Replacing with the Proposed 2024 Zoning Ordinance. Councilman Stover made to motion to approve the proposed ordinance text as the amendment is both consistent with the Town's 2030 Comprehensive Plan, and implements its recommendations establish new. zoning districts, streamlining zoning procedures and administration and achieving compliance with the state' 's zoning enable legislation. Seconded by Councilwoman Baker. The motion passed without objection. Adoption of an Ordinance to Regulate Peddlers, Itinerant Merchants and Solicitors Philip Slayter, Special Projects Administrator presented this to the Board. The issue of unrestricted selling that occurs principally on vacant lots or in parking lots of other businesses has a negative impact on existing merchants. The activities are unpermitted and create opportunities for fraud or other illicit market activity, largely because these businesses are mobile and temporary in nature. In the past, the Town has struggles with controlling these types of activities and has used the zoning ordinance as the primary tool to enforce their closure. It is both the Planning & Zoning Department's and Police Department's view that a specific ordinance is need to more explicitly and clearly state the Towns policy on limiting the presence of these type activities. To clarify, this ordinance exempts permitted food trucks, seasonal sales or fundraising. Councilwoman Stein asked Mr. Slayter, do we call the office and let you know? It's really just an administrative procedures thing you can call ifthere is someone who is violating the ordinance. The police chief can be notified or the planning and zoning administrator, and then either that person or an officer can go out. This does cover door to door sales as well. This does not affect yard sales. Mayor Neal asked for a motion to adopt the ordinance. Councilwoman Stein made to motion to adopt the ordinance; seconded by Councilman Clancy. The motion passed without objection. Resolution to Award to Contract for Site Remediation Lee Brown, Public Services Director is requesting to inter into contract with KB's Hauling Site Development in the amount of $35,000 for remediation of the debris dump site located at 333 W. River Road. The Town will be responsible for the tipping fees. In the summer of 2022 the NC Department of Environmental Quality (NCDEQ), Division of Waste Management, Solid Waste Section received an anonymous complaint regarding the accumulation ofyard and debris on the Town's property located at 333 W. River Rd. Ms. Amanda Thompson representing NCDEQ met with the Public Services Director on November 5, 2024 for a technical assistance meeting at the site. During the meeting Ms. Thompson shared the various violation, and also gave notice that the city will need to come into compliance within 60 days of receiving written notice ofthe violations. Written notice was received on November 12, 2024. We have been successful in getting rid of about 8 loads of utility poles, treated lumber, things that cannot be piled. They will mulch all the yard waste, haul it off, and they will hail all ofthe spoiled piles to an appropriate permitted landfill. At which point Amanda will then make another site visit and hopefully deem us in compliance. In the meantime, staff has been directed to haul to the appropriate landfill. Franklin County landfill accepts municipal solid waste and yard waste. This - will be an additional lipping fee for the Town. Maybe $40 for a ton. The site on Seaboard, we have also begun hauling that to its appropriate destination. That is where the street cleanups have been dumped. The mulch we can store a certain amount for a certain amount oft time. Record keeping on how much we're dumping, how much is leaving the site and how much is stored on site and for how long, at which at this point we could have to haul off the bulk. Do we have the money in the budge fir this? Mr. Medlin stated that it wasn'tp planned sO iti isn'tin the budget. Councilwoman Baker asked Mr. Brown if he knew how this came to be? He said that this has been something historically that was done over the years. It is common in most small rural communities. Councilwoman Stein said that the council requested that we do a rate study on our utilities. Do you have an update on that study? Unfortunately, he did not have an update, but he was aware of it. He advised that moving this debris will not slow down services for the citizens. Mayor Neal asked for a motion to approve this contract. Councilman Clancy asked how could we approve this ifiti is not in the budget? If we don't approve this contract, we will probably have fees for the dumping. Mr. Brwon agreed that there will be fines due to not meeting the 60-day deadline. Councilwoman Stein asked Mr. Medlin how do we handle this. His reply was, in the budget this past year, as you may recall, under administration, there was appropriated fund balance where we had some funding available, we could move it from there. We could do a budget amendment. Councilman Clancy stated that they had spent $75 thousand dollars on the basketball court and that wasn't budgeted either. It was asked if we actually spent $75 thousand dollars on the basketball court? Mayor Neal stated that was not correct, it was $35 thousand dollars. He also stated that the site was still being prepped and were close to starting the court. Mayor Neal said it was clear that some of you do not want recreation for the community. United Way came to the municipalities to improve recreation and in the form that they suggested was basketball courts. The Town of Franklinton installed their court at the Franklinton Park which is county owned. Bunn had theirs right next to the old police station which was cleared area and they moved forward. The Town of Louisburg looked for several different sites. We went to people who own various other pieces of property to see ifthey would donate or sale land. None were willing to do that. We resorted back to our Town property which was Joyner Park. Site clearing is still going on. Councilman Clancy agreed that he had the wrong amount, but also said that it's not finished sO we will see how much the total will be. Councilwoman Woods said that ifhe didn't want recreations just say SO. His reply that he wasn't against recreations but it was the process of the way it was handled is what he was against. He said the Board never agreed on this as a group. It was discussed but never came to a final decision. Councilman Stover said there is money in the budget that was moved to cover. Councilwoman Stein said there has not been a budget amendment since fall of 2023. Mayor Neal suggested that we hold this discussion for a later time because he could name some unbudgeted items that we encouraged some expenses that really didn't need to be encouraged. Councilwoman Baker suggested for clarity that we get a report of where the monies were moved to. Councilman Clancy said that they haven't seen financials in a year. Mayor Neal stated that we are going into closed session and that is where these items should be discussed. Councilman Clancy asked Mr. Medlin, you are saying that there is money in the budget that could be moved to make this happen. Mr. Medlin said that he was saying that when we completed our budget for 2024-2025, we had appropriate funds under administrative in the amount of $102,000 ifhe recalls and that is where that would come from. Councilman Stover made the motion that we approve the contract; seconded by Councilwoman Baker. The motion passed. Resolution for Appointed to Town Board and Commissions 8 Mr. Philip Slayter presented saying that the Town ofLouisburg Town Council is the appointing authority for its Boards and Commissions. The Town of Louisburg Economic Development Committee has two vacancies, and applicant Kianna Chapman has applied. With a (3) year term. Mayor Neal asked for a motion to approve the applicant Kianna Chapman to serve on the Economic Development Committee for a term of 3 years. Councilman Stover made a motion to approve the applicant; seconded by Councilman Clancy. The motion passed without objection. Administration Report: Sean Medlin reported that the renovation/construction improvements have begun at 124 N Main Street. Depot Hill update- the bids have been advertised beginning December the gth. A: mandatory pre bid meeting will be held January the 15th and bids are due February the 4th. Town Hall offices will be closed December 24th, 25th and 26th in observance of the Christmas holidays as well as Wednesday, January 1st, 2025 in observance of New Year's Day. He thanked all employees for their assistance with the annual Christmas parade. Sidewalks along Allen Lane have begun. Construction and then repairs to sidewalks from College to Allen should begin the 1st of. January. Mayors Report: Mayor Neal said he had spoken at several different churches for their Christmas ceremony. He played old saint nick this past weekend, which he handed out hundreds oftoys to young people at Miles Magnolia. The young people came out and had a great time and these tours were kids ranging from 2 up to16. Police Report- Due to time Mayor Neal asked the Council to review that report themselves. Councilwoman Stien stated that she actually had something that she would like to talk to with Chief Abbott that's a growing concern ini regards to the mental health facility running about the neighborhood. Itis scary to her and her largest concern is the safety oft the community and the safety of those people. Could he briefly address this for me? Chief Abbott was glad to address this. Just for the nature of having that type of facility with an emergency room as well, G.S. requires anyone to do this, they have to go through the emergency room first. Often times those escapes happen during that time. That's when there is no requirement for the law enforcement to be there. We're actually in talks with the hospital now to meet a new G.S. that came out last year to have an officer on site. Ifthat goes through, the facility itself, mental health side of the facility, they will all come from the emergency where these people are being medically fully released. Councilwoman Stien asked ifthe cost ofthe officers fall on the Town of the Hospital? Chief Abbott we are just letting them know if that's the service that you want the Town to provide, this is going to be the hospital and they are going to take it 100%. Fire Department Due to time please review this report that was included in your packet. Council Comments Councilman Stover Councilwoman Woods and himself had attended a strategic planning conference which we worked on a strategic plan for the Town. This will come to the council for review and then to the public. It was tremendously educational informative conference. Councilwoman Woods thanked everyone for coming out tonight. Thank you all for the comments. She went to the parade and tree lighting. Thank all employees that make these events happen. Wished everyone a Merry Christmas and a Happy New Year. 9 Councilwoman Stein she thanked all of the Town employees for all their efforts this year. Two employees that are retiring, Randy Young and Dwight Williams. Thank you and enjoy your retirement. She wished all a very Merry Christmas and may 2025 brings many blessings. On Saturday morning at our historic Oakwood Cemetery, we will be laying reaves with the wreath across America. Ifyou would like to join us for that, we will have a brief ceremony at 10am. Councilwoman Wright every Monday she still has the opportunity ofs signing the weekly checks for the Kerr Tar that she is associated with. December 3rd the Kerr Tar had a zoom meeting. She really hadn't done a lot this week. She has been out of commission for a while sick. She is glad to be able to come out tonight. For the young gentleman that don't know her and called her out of her element she would like to speak with him after the meeting. Councilwoman Baker hoped that some of you made it to the parade. Its one of her favorite traditions. Thank you to all of the employees that made it happen. Thank you to all that came to the meeting and these comments. Even those that were negative. Iti is the hardest job is sitting here taking it when your upset with our decisions and she completely understands. She reassured Mr. Hamilton that she would look at his letter. As far as that decision goes, she voted for the decision with the full-time position rather than part time as fire chief. She is happy to explain them to people one on one ifthey would like. She has been a little disappointed in the follow up video. Leadership is part oft this job and it seems like there's been a lapse in that. There is research done as far as the contingency plan. Also, communications didn't go out properly like they should. If we make a decision, we need to stay by, and take leadership and show accountability for it. She does not regret her vote but she does regret some ofthe follow up ofwhat happens next and for that she is sorry. Councilman Clancy had no comment.

Discussion of Water Study by Hazen and Sawyer. The Town of Louisburg is beginning to experience rapid growth as the suburban areas of the Triangle Region of NC grow northward. This growth is anticipated to lead to an increase in drinking water demand and necessitates évaluation of the resiliency of the current system to steppingstone to improving Louisburg's ability to plan and prepare for this demand growth. The Town of Louisburg selected Hazen and Sawyer to examine the conceptual feasibility of an off- stream reservoir. This includes determining the required volume to meet the Town's projected water needs (demands) through 2070 as well as conceptual costs and identifying permitting requirements. With Louisburg looking to expand its industrial sector and seeing interest in residential developments, understanding the feasibility of a new reservoir is critical to long term planning. A handout was given to the Council that is showing a water supply study for the Town of Louisburg, which was reviewed with the Board. The Town owns and operates a raw water intake from the Tar River on the northwest side of the Town that is pumped to a 2mgd water treatment plant. This plant provides potable water to Town and allows the Town to sell water to Franklin County through an annually renewed contract. A low head dam on the Tar River provides approximately seven feet of storage depth where the existing intake is located. Modeling these components ofthe existing system helps determine how much water can be sustainably withdrawn and aids in identifying when supplementary water supplies are needed. The current water storage response plan triggers for the Town are based on water elevations behind the low-head dam at the raw water intake. According to the OASIS modeling of the current system, this water elevation could decrease quite quickly in a severe drought. The shortage stages could progress from one stage to the next every few days, which would inadequate for the Town to implement conservation measures to avoid an emergency. It was asked ifthis could be the effect of global warming. Could something else impede on the Towns water supply, possibly up stream. There are other water supply alternatives such as groundwater wells, raw water purchases, main-stem reservoirs. During low-flow periods, the existing 2 mgd may not be able to provide sufficient supply to meet future demand. That is when water would be pumped from the off-stream reservoir to the WTP. Off- 12 stream storage is for high flow periods for the river, water is diverted out ofthe river to refill the reservoir. Preliminary cost consideration is between $40 and $75 million. There are several sources of uncertain that contribute to the wide range in the cost estimate and which could be narrowed during subsequent phases of study. 1. Total reservoir volume required. 2. Inaccessible volume remaining after optimal design. 3. Suitability if the on-site soils to contribute to the earthen berm. 4. Reservoir liner cost. Following this, and assuming the off-stream reservoir concept continues to be the leading option, it would then be time to develop a preliminary engineering report. This would include a geotechnical analysis to understand soil conditions and their impacts on the cost and footprint of the reservoir. Reservoir storage volume and excavation of the reservoir could be optimized to minimize cost. Economics of scale for the reservoir could be studied to determine how the benefit to cost ration could be maximized by adjusting the reservoir size. Doing SO could identify the potential for regional water supply benefits beyond the Town of Louisburg. Environmental permitting studies would begin at that stage. Hydrology and hydraulic modeling would be performed to size the berm spillway and perform a dam breach. Louisburg has the opportunity to position itself well for sustainable growth with a safe and reliable water supply in the coming years. Based on this study, the concept ofbuilding an off-stream reservoir appears promising and further study as outlined is warranted. Adjourn. Mayor Neal asked for a motion to adjourn. Councilman Clancy made the motion to adjourn; seconded by Councilwoman Stein. The motion passed without objection.
