Mr. Wilson made a presentation regarding the bid for crushed stone and was told
by Ms. Pelaez that the County is continuing to use the 1998 bid at this time. She stated
that Martin Marietta was the apparent low bidder on the new bid but there was
correspondence from the departments that they wanted to give other individuals the
chance to bid on the project. So the bid was actually pulled and the request to readvertise
the bid never made it back to Purchasing so the bid as of today has not been readvertised.
The bid has been placed out again and the contract will go into effect in January of 200 1.

The Committee next discussed the Master Street Lighting Plan.
Mr. Cheek: I've received some phone calls from Mr. Sylvester Rosier concerning
the lighting plan as it takes place in some of the residential areas. We have areas on large
. thoroughfares where people on a fixed income have land and are being asked to give
substantial contributions to the lighting plan. They are seeking some kind of remedy for
this situation. Perhaps we could look at removing some of these areas from the lighting
plan until they become commercial.
Mr. Wall: I think if you wanted to reconsider certain areas, you would have to
recalculate the costs of the street lights and you would also have to look at refunding
taxes that have a1ready been billed and amending the tax districts so that you would not
be collecting taxes.
Mr. Rosier: We haven't been billed for this yet.
I
Mr. Cheek: I'd like to make a motion that we gain additional information on this
issue and that there is one zone that is not of interest to the neighbors there - the area on
Highway 25 from Balfour Drive to Rosier Road - that we seek to remove that area from
the lighting district on Highway 25.
Mr. Chairman: Could we have Jim Huffstetler address this at the next meeting?
Ms. Smith: Yes, sir.
Mr. Cheek: I'd like to go ahead and begin proceedings to remove this area.if
they're going to bear the entire cost.
Mr. Mays: I'll second it.
Motion adopted unanimously.
ADJOURNMENT: There being no further business, the meeting was adjourned.
