HARNETT COUNTY — At its June 16 meeting the Harnett County Board of Commissioners recorded a number of routine approvals and project‑level votes. The board approved staff recommendations or motions on the following items listed below. Where the transcript did not record individual roll‑call names, outcomes are summarized from the meeting record.
Vehicle disposition (transit): The board approved a request to assign title for transit vehicle 7593 (a 2017 lift‑equipped vehicle) to NCDOT IMD so the vehicle will remain in NCDOT’s eligible inventory and qualify Harnett County for replacement on the FY2027 capital application. Staff said the county will replace the vehicle on the FY2027 capital application once the transfer is accepted.
FAMPO/NCDOT roundabout support (Buffalo Lake Rd / Alpine Rd): The board approved a motion to provide a letter of support for a federal FAMPO grant to construct a roundabout at the Buffalo Lake Road and Alpine Road intersection. NCDOT Division staff said the project estimate is approximately $3.5 million and that design and final cost will be determined in later project phases.
