In Memory of Sunshine Richardson Missing You 1 So words I write can ever say How much I miss you every day. .As time goes by, the loneliness grows', How I miss you, nobody knows! I think of you in silence, I often speak your name. But all I have are memories And photos in a frame. So one knows my sorrow, So one sees me weep. But the love I have for you Is in my heart to keep. I've never stopped loving you I’m sure I never will; Deep inside my heart, You are with me still. Heartaches m this world are many But mine is worse than any. My heart still aches as I whisper low, “I need you and I miss you so.” The things we feel so deeply Are often the hardest to say, But I just can’t kdep quiet any more, So I’ll tell you anyway. There is a place in my heart ^ That no one else can fill; V i love uou so, Dear, And I always will. ■ Alice Richardson ► Introducing PwutdfoePetffei&tf* A luxury boarding experience Visit our website or come by for a tour of our new $ Pa.radlse.

In September 2016, Do minion announced an ex pansion of its plans for solar in the region to a total of 500 megawatts of utility-scale solar to be developed in Virginia and North Carolina through 2020. This amounts to enough electricity at peak capacity to power about 125,000 homes, according to Pridgen. Domion’s website pro vides additional information about its solar initiatives. The information is at https:// DAILY ADVANCE FILE PHOTO Solar panels at SunEnergyl’s solar farm on Ferrell Mill Road southeast of Moyock are shown Thursday, Jan. 12. www.dom.com/about-us/ making-energy/renewables/ solar/virginia-and-north-car olina-solar-projects. Although solar is one of the fastest-growing sources of renewable energy, Do minion follows state laws in defining renewable en ergy as energy derived from sunlight, wind, falling water, biomass, energy from waste, municipal solid waste, wave motion, tides and geother mal power. It does not in clude energy derived from coal, oil, natural gas or nu clear power. One of the challenges for the utility as solar becomes a bigger piece of the power generation pie is to ensure that customized interconnec tion studies are performed for each generating facility in a way that the safety, reli ability, and operability of the grid is maintained. FUND Continued from 1A into consideration. County Manager Kevin Howard said he would bring to the commissioners at an upcoming meeting a report on the fund balance in light of those longterm commit ments. But Howard said even when those set-aside funds are taken into consid eration the fund balance in the General Fund still meets the 25 percent figure that the county commissioners are committed to maintaining. Vang reported that prop erty tax collected was $10.1 million in Fiscal Year 2016, up from nearly $9.85 million in Fiscal Year 2015. Sales tax collected was $1.88 million in 2016, down slightly from nearly $2.02 million in 2015. The single biggest area of spending in the General Flrnd is education, at 28 percent, followed by human services at 22 percent and public safety at 21 percent Education spending in Fiscal Year 2016 was $3.89 million, up from $3.71 mil lion in Fiscal Year 2015. Human services spending dropped slightly to nearly $3.12 million in Fiscal Year 2016 from $3.27 million in Fiscal Year 2015. Public safety spending dipped just a bit to $2.9 mil lion in Fiscal Year 2016 from $2.91 million in Fiscal Year 2015. The Water Fluid made money during Fiscal Year 2016 - a solid $276,014 - while the county’s other two main enterprise funds lost money. Solid Waste lost $3,521 while Emer gency Medical Services lost $26,891. Cash flow from opera tions in the Water Fluid was $275,080 in Fiscal Year 2016, up substantially from $94,139 the previous year. The growth in income was due largely to increases in water rates that county of ficials put in place in order to generate revenue to help cover the cost of upcoming capital improvements to the system. County officials discov ered in 2008 that the county’s reserves had been depleted and the county’s finances were in crisis. In response the county commissioners adopted aus terity measures and reduced the amount of real estate the county owned. In 2013 the county signifi cantly reduced its longterm debt pressure by refinancing the county’s debt. ALUMNI Continued from 1A before the local schools were integrated. COA officials have em phasized that their priority is for the college to be suc cessful in the Edenton com munity so that young people have a path to go to college or pursue their careers. County officials have stressed that the restoration of the two-story building de pends on finding a use for the structure that is self-sus taining. The future of the building will depend on input from three newly seated county commissioners as well as continuing input from the other commissioners. Three ne,w commission ers were elected in No vember and seated in De cember Democrat Donald Faircloth and Republicans Patti Kersey and Ron Cum mings. In addition to the new county commissioners there will be a new COA president this year and some new COA trustees, all of whom will need to weigh in on the fu ture of the building > CAVANAGH RINGELMAN Certified Public Accountants PC Tax Return Preparation Planning ft Budgeting i-uvunuyn wcoummg « Auamng services Ringc-lrnan Business Effectiveness Business Coaching "One good idea ... ...every time we talkl” P.O.
