Mr. Batchelor noted that the County pays only $2.25 an hour. The County tried a similar program about six years about and programs in only two of the areas were s. uccassful. Mr. Wheeler said these are two areas are composed of low-income families. They cannot get transportation to either of the County parks. This i~!the type of program that should be funded from Revenue Sharing Funds. Mr. Henley asked if Revenue Sharimg funds can be spent on. the project. Mr. Fisher said these would not be matching funds as they are not required before U.S.D.A. funds can be received. Mr. Wheeler said he did not believe these children will have any other summer recreation available and he is not worried about setting a precedent. Mr. Sampson asked if this program would involve the Parks Department. Mr. Wheeler said no. Mr. Thacker agreed with Mr. Wheeler that the Board should provide something for these children because of their lack of access to other recreational areas. He then offered motion to adopt the following resolution: BE IT RESOLVED by the Board of Supervisors of Albemarle County, Virginia, that $1,600 be, and the same hereby is, appropriated from Revenue Sharing Funds and trans- ferred to the General Operating Fund for expenditures of this program. The motion was seconded by Mr. Wood and carried by the following recorded vote: AYES: NAYS: ABSENT: Messrs. Fisher, Henley, Thacker, Wheeler and Wood. None. Mr. Carwile. Not Docketed. Mr. Wheeler said the Board has discussed membership on the Welfare Board many times. He asked that a member of the staff check H.B. 1506 passed by the last General Assembly.
