Summary
On consent the Board approved transfer of two surplus Tahoes to local emergency squads, appropriations for Public Health records scanning and self-insurance transfers for fleet repairs, a pyrotechnics permit for Claremont, on-call engineering master agreements for solid-waste services, and an amendment to map review officer appointments.
The Catawba County Board of Commissioners approved a package of consent items on May 5 that included surplus property donations, multiple appropriations, permits and administrative updates.
The Board adopted Resolution 2025-13 declaring two 2017 Chevrolet Tahoes surplus and authorized donation of one vehicle to Claremont Rescue Squad and one to the Catawba Volunteer Fire Department under N.C.G.S. §160A-279. County staff said donations meet local vehicle-donation policy and the vehicles have approximate values of $7,000 each.
Public Health was appropriated $245,000 from Home Health sale proceeds to contract with Datadoc for an end-to-end medical-records scanning, indexing and shredding project to address an estimated 660 boxes of legacy records and comply with state retention guidelines.
The Board approved a PyroStar Entertainment LLC pyrotechnics permit application for a May 24 fireworks display in Claremont, contingent on Fire Marshal review and the company's state permits. The Board also authorized five-year master agreements with four engineering firms to provide on-call solid-waste engineering services and approved amendment to the list of map review officers (Resolution 2025-16) to reflect municipal staffing changes and to record the changes with the Register of Deeds.
All consent items were approved as presented and the consent motion carried unanimously.
