Call to Order<br /><br />2. Invocation<br /><br />3. Pledge of Allegiance<br /><br />4. Recognition<br />A. Lance Metzler, County Manager<br />Presentation of the Order of the Long Leaf Pine to Debbie McGuire.<br /> <br /><br />5. Approval of the August 17, 2029 Agenda.<br /><br />6. Consent Agenda<br />Consent items as follows will be adopted with a single motion, second and vote, unless a request for removal from the Consent Agenda is heard from a Commissioner<br /><br />A. Susan Washburn, Clerk to the Board of Commissioners<br />Request approval of the minutes for Regular Commissioners meetings on June 15, 2026 and July 20, 2026.<br /> <br /><br />B. Mandy McGhee, Finance Director<br /><br />1.  Request approval for an increase to the Public Health Department budget in the amount of $20,557 to recognize additional funding received through the AA 117 Public Health Infrastructure Funds.  The purpose of the AA 117 Public Health Infrastructure funding is to strengthen the local Public Health workforce and ensure the local Public Health agencies are prepared and capable of responding to the community's health needs.  These funds will support workforce development and other resources necessary for the Local Health Department to provide foundational Public Health services and address the needs of the communities it serves.<br /><br />2.  Request approval of an increase to the Library's budget in the amount of $1,000 to accept the IMLS America 250 stipend from Capital Meeting Planning, Inc. for the Library's participation in the IMLS 250 Library Convening:  Telling America's Story.<br /><br />3.  Request consideration to appropriate $84,284 of the Bethany Fire District fund balance.  Bethany Fire Department requested their remaining fund balance as of June 30, 2026 to be placed into their capital reserve fund.<br /><br />4.  Request approval to increase the Public Health Department budget in the amount of $4,879 for additional Women, Infants, and Children (WIC) Program funding.  Purpose:  The additional funding is provided through a Special Funding Opportunity for Local Health Departments to address unique local needs.  The funds will support the WIC Program's mission of providing nutritious foods, nutrition education, and referrals to health care and other community resources for eligible low-income women, infants, and children during critical periods of growth and development.<br /><br />5.  Request approval of an increase to the Public Health Department budget in the amount of $28,839 for additional State funding received through AA 121 ARPA Temporary Savings Funds.  Purpose:  These funds will support activities authorized under the General Aid to Counties Agreement and enhance the local Health Department's capacity to deliver essential Public Health services and core functions.  The funding will also assist in addressing specific community health needs and health status indicators identified by the local Health Department.<br /><br />6. Rockingham County is a recipient of Federal funding through the American Rescue Plan Act (ARPA), including Coronavirus State and Local Fiscal Recovery Funds (CSLFRF).  As a condition of these awards, the North Carolina Department of Environmental Quality (NCDEQ) requires recipients to adopt and maintain certain compliance policies and procedures.  The County has implemented the required ARPA compliance documents.  During a recent NCDEQ desk review, NCDEQ staff confirmed the County's overall ARPA compliance and project management practices but requested formal adoption of an Internal Control Policy specific to ARPA/CSLFRF awards.  The proposed Internal Control Policy is based on the model policy recommended by the UNC School of Government and NCDEQ.  The policy formalizes the County's existing internal control framework, which is designed to provide reasonable assurance that public funds are managed in accordance with applicable federal and state requirements.  The policy addresses key internal control components, including governance and oversight, communication, risk assessment, segregation of duties, written policies and procedures, documentation, financial reporting and timely reconciliations to ensure the proper stewardship of ARPA/CSLFRF funds.<br /><br />7.  Request approval to increase the Department of Social Services (DSS) budget by $43,399 to appropriate Special Children Adoption Incentive Funds received from the North Carolina Department of Health and Human Services (NCDHHS), Division of Social Services.  These funds are restricted and may only be used for eligible expenses associated with the Special Children Adoption Program.  The State Revenue was received in June 2026 and, because it was received at fiscal year-end, was closed to County Fund Balance.  This budget amendment re-appropriates the funds from County Fund Balance for their intended program purpose.<br /> <br /><br />C. Justin Thacker, Deputy Finance Director<br /><br />1.  Request approval to increase the fiscal year (FY) 2026 Cooperative Extension budget $3,622 for program revenues earned and not budgeted in FY 2026.  The various program revenues are to be used in the same program as earned.<br /><br />2.  Request approval of a new roof project in the amount of $1.35 million for the roof replacement project at Western Rockingham Middle School and authorization to close out the remaining HVAC and roofing projects funded through the associated debt issuance.  In order to complete this project, we may have to transfer up to $432,618 dollars in restricted sales tax dollars.  Additionally, consideration to approve the updated capital project ordinance.<br /><br />3.  Request consideration to appropriate $5,450 for Veteran's Treatment Court staff training line item.  The Veteran's Treatment Court training event was budgeted in FY 2026.<br /><br />D.

Request approval for the June 15, 2026 Agenda<br /><br />7. Consent Agenda<br />Consent items as follows will be adopted with a single motion, second and vote, unless a request for removal from the Consent Agenda is heard from a Commissioner<br /><br />A. Todd Hurst, Tax Administrator<br />Request approval of Tax Collection and Reconciliation reports for May including refunds for May 19,2026 through June 14, 2026.<br /><br />B. Captain Jennifer Brown<br />Sgt. Tammy East retired effective May 1, 2026 from the Rockingham County Sheriff's Office with 17 years of service.  She is requesting to purchase her duty weapon for $100.00 per County Policy and NCGS 17F 20.<br /><br />C. Rodney Cates, Emergency Services Director<br />1.  Request approval to appropriate $92,797 in insurance settlement proceeds received for property loss resulting from an accident that occurred in December 2025, along with $37,195 from the General Fund available fund balance, to replace a Transit EMS Van at a total cost of $129,992, including tags and taxes.  All equipment to fully up-fit the unit will be reinstalled from the damaged ambulance in the new Transit Van.<br /><br />2.  Request approval to appropriate $460,112 from available fund balance for the purchase of a new ambulance for the Stokesdale EMS Base.  The total cost includes taxes, tag and title fees, and all equipment and items necessary to fully up-fit the ambulance.<br /><br /><br />D. Mandy McGhee, Finance Director<br />1.  Request approval to amend the Resolution for Water &amp; Sewer Enterprise Fund Repayment and Creation of the Water and Sewer Reserve Fund.  The Resolution recognizes cumulative transfers totaling $11,466,000 from the General Fund to the Water &amp; Sewer Enterprise Fund between fiscal years 2008 through 2023.  These transfers were necessary to support and cover debt service obligations within the Enterprise Fund.  The amendment establishes a thirty (30) year repayment schedule from the Enterprise Fund to the General Fund at an annual interest rate of 0.25%.  The repayment structure provides flexibility to allow for payments in excess of the scheduled annual amount when sufficient funds are available.  Additionally, annual payments may be deferred in years when Enterprise Fund revenues and reserves are insufficient to meet operating, capital, and reserve funding needs in excess of the required annual repayment amount.  The repayment schedule will be deferred for an initial three (3) year period, with the first projected payment anticipated on June 30, 2029. <br /><br />2.  Request approval to appropriate $5,000 of 4-H Reserve Fund Balance for upcoming Summer Adventures.  4-H Reserve Fund Balance are program fees earned in previous years and are reserved for use in future 4-H programs. <br /><br />E. Susan Washburn, Clerk to the Board<br />Request approval of regular and recessed minutes for the County Commissioners meetings - May 18, 2026, February 16, 2026 (Regular Meeting); February 16, 2026 (Recessed Meeting); January 5, 2026; November 3, 2025; October 20, 2025; October 6, 2025; September 15, 2025; September 2, 2025; August 18, 2025; and May 23, 2025 (Recessed Meeting).<br /><br />F. Derek Southern, Assistant County Manager<br />Request approval to transfer $473,000 from the Future Public Building Reserve account within the Capital Improvement Plan (CIP) to the Touch Panel Reserve Project (which already has $S343,000 in reserve).  Create a CIP project for $ 716,000 for RCJC Touch Panel and $100,000 for Camera Additions.  The project has undergone two separate Request for Proposal (RFP) processes in an effort to obtain responsible and competitive bids for the replacement of the Touch Panel and Camera System.  Since the project was originally approved in FY 25 CIP, costs have increased significantly.  In addition to inflationary impacts, changes in technology and system requirements now necessitate extensive backend infrastructure upgrades to ensure compatibility, reliability, and long-term functionality of the system.  These upgrades are required to meet the operational needs and security standards of the County's facilities and technology environment.  The request also includes funding for additional cameras in both the Detention Center and the Clerk of Court's Office.  These camera additions have been identified as needs for some time but have been delayed due to the capacity limitations of the County's current camera system.  As part of this upgrade, the expanded system capacity will allow these cameras to be installed and integrated into the overall security infrastructure.  The requested transfer will provide the funding necessary to complete the project as designed, address existing security needs, and ensure the replacement system meets current and future operational requirements.<br /><br />G. Lance Metzler, County Manager<br />Request consideration of the adoption of the "Rockingham County Property Naming Policy".<br /><br />H.

The two additional vehicles were originally included in the FY 27 budget request.<br />   However, after further discussion, it was determined that purchasing the vehicles now<br />   would be the most cost-effective approach, allowing us to maximize federal reimbursement<br />   rates before they decrease from 50% to 25%.<br /> <br />E.

Lance Metzler, County Manager - Increase Health Insurance fund $1,610,000 to cover estimated expenditures through June 30, 2026. Claims costs are trending higher than estimated in the current budget for medical, prescription, and dental claims. Currently, claims for medical and prescription are 11.28% higher through December 2025 in comparison to the same time last fiscal year. Rx Rebates and Interest Earnings are projected higher based on actual activity to date. Additionally, there are additional revenues from stop/loss insurance coverage that will further help cover the additional costs for the claims in excess of stop/loss coverage. Last fiscal year the County added $425,141.31 to the Health Insurance Fund bringing the fund balance total to $4,827,585.10. <br /><br />2. Captain Jennifer Brown, Sheriff's Office - Request approval to appropriate available fund balance in the amount of $618,769 to cover anticipated shortfall in Inmate Medical budget for the remainder of FY25/26. The Over Cost Pool (OCP) limit for Southern Health Partners has been higher than average due to multiple inmates with serious medical conditions requiring hospitalization and specialized care. These costs are driven by the level of medical care required by current inmate population and can be unpredictable at times. To ensure continuity of care and meet contractual and medical obligations, we are requesting $618,769 from fund balance to cover projected inmate health care cost for the remainder of FY2025/2026.<br />Increase Health Insurance Fund thru FYE2026<br /><br />11.
