City considers Neuse COG membership amid funding debate
At Monday's board meeting, Sanders and Sermons urged paying the 5500 membership fee citing agency cleanup and a new director. Others opposed staying, yet Sanders noted Neuse COG aided Havelock's strategic plan and could help lobby to keep 160 F A 18s headed to Cherry Point despite Perry's advice to move to Oceana. Sermons was the sole vote against withdrawal. Galati said Craven County won't be billed extra for 1995-96 membership and that next year's bills are already sent. He voiced concern over withdrawal making Neuse COG's status tenuous but pledged to continue pursuing it.
