§ 2-266. Continued as agency for antipoverty programs.

The Coastal Plain Area Economic Opportunity Authority, Inc., will continue as the legally constituted community agency for the county to provide, coordinate and operate the antipoverty programs and other related human services and to seek funding from appropriate federal, state, local and private sources.

(Res. of 10-2-78)

Editor's note

The Coastal Plain Area Economic Opportunity Authority, Inc., was designated by the board of commissioners of the county in the years 1965, 1968, and 1973 to provide services and self-help opportunities to low-income citizens pursuant to the Economic Opportunity Act of 1964. The Economic Opportunity Act of 1964 and the Office of Economic Opportunity have been replaced by the Community Services Act of 1974 and the Community Services Administration. The board of commissioners of the county feel that the activities and programs of this agency have been of great value to the poor and to the business and lay community during the last 13 years.
