The James Home is a proposed long-term facility for abused and neglected children in Cleveland County. Presently, construction funds of $115,000 are being raised and plans are to begin building in late spring 1989. The home will care for nine children, boys and girls, from ages 0-18. This non-profit organization was formed in February 1988 to develop a facility to care for children in a safe and nurturing environment. There is no other facility in the county that will fill the care needs of abused and neglected children. Additional information may be obtained by calling Margie Christopher at 481-9705 and donations may be made to James Home, P.O. Box 2597, Shelby.

Also, the DMV is increasing efficiency through extensive use of computers, revision and streamlining of testing, and additional field personnel. Task force recommendations requiring legislative approval include the proposed six-year driver license for safe drivers. Martin said he would support that proposal. Meeting some of the goals set forth in the task force report may take a combination of administrative and legislative changes. For example, the report says that driver license offices should be open after 5:00 p.m. to serve clients who find it difficult to come in during normal business hours. Taking such a step might require a combination of administrative schedule changes, along with additional funding from the legislature. In addition to his endorsement of many of the task recommendations, the governor has directed the DMV to study ways that other ideas in the report can be implemented. For example, he has asked the division to determine whether it would be advisable and possible to allow driver license address changes to be made instead of requiring drivers to report to a license office. The governor said he will not endorse task force proposals that would make changes for drivers under the age of 18. He said those recommendations need to be studied in more detail, a position he also applied to a task force recommendation to establish full- time license offices in each of the state's 100 counties. The task force was established by the governor last December and charged with conducting the first comprehensive study of the state's driver license system. Twenty-nine citizens served on the task force, which was chaired by Kermit Edney of Hendersonville. Before drafting its report, the group held a series of public hearings across the state, and it heard from driver license professionals from other states.

Ed Hamilton, of First National Bank, recently agreed to serve as General Chairman and is now in the process of recruiting a team of leaders.

Reaching our public goal of $750,000 will enable us to renovate a very crowded and outdated library facility.

The main library on Howie Street is twenty years old and the growth of Cleveland County has surpassed the ability of our library to keep pace with the demands placed on it. Of particular interest to parents will be a new 4,000 sq. ft. children's area that will be used exclusively to serve children.We will also establish a branch library in Lawndale which will serve residents in the upper part of the county." Mrs. Plaster added that she was happy to serve in this capacity and anticipated no problem in enlisting other leaders who will guide and direct activities of the volunteers.
