The motion was seconded by Commissioner Renegar and approved unanimously, with all five commissioners (Mark Jones, Benita Finney, Richard Poindexter, Terry Renegar, M. Brent Shoaf) voting in favor. 1. Jody Everette addressed the voters of Davie County, encouraging voter participation and sharing his personal views regarding the candidates. 2. Kenneth Osborne, a resident of Mt. Ridge Trail, spoke regarding the proposed Myers Lake Subdivision. He stated that he previously left Advance due to development concerns and expressed opposition to this project, noting his belief that the land would become unsuitable for residential use if the development proceeds. He also expressed concern that Davie County may be moving toward development patterns similar to Forsyth or Rowan counties and raised issues related to wetlands. 3. Jimmy Myers stated that the farm, previously owned by his father, was intended to be held in trust and remain a farm rather than be sold. He expressed concerns regarding the watershed, noting that the lake level is currently down approximately three to four feet, which he attributed to the water wheel operating continuously. He also stated that when the pond is at full capacity, he has observed water overflowing onto the deck and roadway within the campground. Additionally, he expressed concern that the developers would not control the valve regulating the lake. 4. Bill Koontz expressed opposition to the proposed development, stating that he believes taxpayers will bear the financial burden. He also voiced concerns regarding the safety of children at the lake. 5. Gary Stowers addressed the Board regarding the Lake Myers Landing Subdivision, expressing concerns that the development could directly impact his well water. He also raised concerns about water runoff associated with the project. 6. Kevin Boger, of 2578 U.S. Highway 64 West, addressed the Board regarding the development near Lake Myers. He stated that additional requirements should apply to developments permitted by right, particularly for larger subdivisions. He expressed concerns about overburdening the water system and electric grid and stated that buffers should be required. 7. Jennifer Boger addressed the Board as a concerned citizen whose property would be affected by the proposed subdivision. She stated that she believes certain rules are not being followed and expressed significant concerns that her well water could become contaminated and unsafe for consumption. She also raised concerns regarding increased traffic, estimating that a minimum of 320 additional vehicles could result from the development, and expressed concerns for her family’s safety. Additionally, she stated that she and her family moved to the area with the understanding that the land would not be sold or developed. [PAGE 3] 8. Nick Gibietis, of 217 Vanzant Road, addressed the Board regarding the Lake Myers Development on his own behalf. He stated that curbing should be strongly considered as part of the project. He wants to keep the rural feel of Davie County and for the neighbors to be heard. 9. Nicole Mock addressed the Board, expressing concerns regarding traffic safety, noting that there is a blind curve near her driveway and that safety issues already exist prior to the potential addition of more than 300 vehicles. She stated that no rules should be waived to facilitate the development, as neighboring residents oppose the proposed subdivision. 10. Frances Bassett addressed the Board regarding the proposed subdivision. She stated that she is upset that the development will be allowed and expressed concerns about increased traffic and noise from construction. She noted that she owns horses and values living in a peaceful, rural environment. She also stated that, given recent increases in her property taxes, she is considering leaving the area if the subdivision is approved. 11. Cayden Mott addressed the Board regarding the proposed subdivision affecting his property. He expressed concerns that the development will significantly increase traffic on the two-lane road and stated that the subdivision goes against the wishes of the farm owner. 12. Michael Williams addressed the Board regarding the Farmington Community Center. He stated that the park has not complied since 2012, noting that a gate is supposed to be there and be able to be locked. He reported incidents of trespassing on his posted property and expressed concern that no action had been taken because there was deemed to be no criminal intent. 13. Ken Clark, of 330 Pete Foster Road, addressed the Board regarding the proposed development. He stated that he moved to the area from Florida and is not opposed to development in general, but is concerned about rules not being followed. He noted that no infrastructure improvements have been made to his property and that he has had to reinforce his own dam due to water runoff damage. He stated that he has spent a significant amount of money restoring his property as a result of the impacts of improperly managed development. 7. Presentations - County Manager, Brian Barnett a. Melissa Parker - Elections Presentation Melissa Parker presented an update on the activities and operations of the Elections Department and provided information regarding the Board of Education. b.

She noted that there has been no addition to the fund balance at this time. c. Safe County Initiative - Sheriff JD Hartman Sheriff JD Hartman gave a presentation on the use of drones as first responders. He stated that the Sheriff's Office manages 20 Flock cameras, with an additional four operated by a housing installment program. Sheriff Hartman clarified that drones will not continuously circle the county and that a public website will provide information on dispatches and flight paths. He noted that data from the Flock cameras is not sold and that all policies and camera details are publicly available on the website. Drones will be used solely as a first response tool, with an estimated 10-second timeframe for photos to be transmitted to the Sheriff's Office. 8.

Myers Landing Subdivision - Johnny Easter Johnny Easter presented the proposed subdivision plan for Myers Landing. He noted that no environmental study has been conducted to date. Greg Garrett, the developer of the property at 6420 Hampton Knoll Road, Clemmons, stated that a delineation study has been completed, and wetlands and streams have been identified. He noted that NCDOT is aware of the subdivision but will not become involved until an official permit is issued; however, turn lanes into the subdivision have already been installed. Mr. Garrett explained that the subdivision plan meets current subdivision requirements and has been approved. A soil scientist has evaluated the property and indicated confidence that development can proceed. The lots have been carefully reviewed and are considered sufficiently large, with easements and a homeowners’ association (HOA) to govern subdivision rules. He stated that deed restrictions could be implemented, and there would be a 30-foot buffer around the lake. Grading will be required to create 400-foot lots suitable for septic systems. Septic tanks will not be installed within 100 feet of wells, though no study has yet been conducted to confirm that well water will remain uncontaminated. [PAGE 6] Mr. Garrett also noted mitigation measures, including culverts designed to withstand storms. The engineering review will involve Jim Walters of Lather Walters Engineers. NCDOT will review all pipes, and NCDOQ prefers ditch drainage over curbs and gutters, as curbs and gutters could accelerate water flow and create additional issues. Chair Finney expressed concern that current ordinances have allowed this situation and stated that she does not feel the proposed concessions are adequate, agreeing with the concerns of the public. Commissioner Jones asked about the status of potential ordinance changes. It was noted that a public hearing must be advertised, with a plan to present it at the February 2nd meeting, and that the zoning ordinance would need to be defined. Commissioner Renegar made a motion to continue the discussion to explore further concessions, including reducing the number of lots and revisiting the ordinances. Commissioner Poindexter seconded the motion. The motion carried 4-1. Yay — ( Mark Jones, Richard Poindexter, Terry Renegar, M Brent Shoaf). Nay - Benita Finney 12. Commissioners' Comments The commissioners thanked everyone for coming. 13. Closed Session - Chair Finney At 8:30 P.M., Commissioner Renegar made the motion to enter into closed session. Commissioner Poindexter seconded the motion. All were in favor, and the motion passed 5-0 (Jones, Finney, Poindexter, Renegar, Shoaf) a. § 143-318.11. (a)(6) To consider the qualifications, competence, performance, character, fitness, conditions of appointment, or conditions of initial employment of an individual public officer or employee or prospective public officer or employee; or to hear or investigate a complaint, charge, or grievance by or against an individual public officer or employee. 14. Adjourn - Chair Finney At 9:32 P.M., Commissioner Jones made the motion to enter back into open session. Commissioner Poindexter seconded the motion.

Office staff will be provided training once integration is completed. • The original completion date was revised from March 2026 to January 2026. However due to some timing with electrical installation and other unforeseen issues this schedule will be revised again.

We do not see this causing any inconvenience to the utility. More will be provided once the contractor his final schedule and we have time to ask questions to revise with engineering firm.

Classes were held in Mocksville and Advance and included the topics, Growing Small Fruits, Raised Bed Gardening and Pruning Trees and Shrubs. Classes were taught to over 40 attendees by the Master Gardener Volunteers, who support Extension’s mission of providing consumer horticulture education to the public. • Food Preservation Classes: The final home food preservation class for the year was held on November 13, an Intro to Pressure Canning. Five classes have been held on food preservation topics in 2025 with 45 attendees. Classes typically include a hands- on portion or demonstration, so they are small in nature to accommodate participants in the Extension kitchen.
