VI. PUBLIC HEARINGS
A. PETITION FOR ABANDONMENT OF A PORTION OF GINGER ROAD NORTH OF
CHANDLER'S GREEN SUBDIVISION
This item was presented to receive citizen comments on the closing
of the right-of-way for Ginger Road that borders lots 16, 17 , 18, 19 and 20
in Chandler's Green Subdivision, and the Potted Plant Nursery. All property
owners adjoining the right-of-way have submitted a petition to close this
portion of the road. The road in the right-of-way has never been constructed
and it does not provide ingress or egress to any of the lots in the
subdivision.
Planner Eddie Kirk noted that he received a letter today from OWASA
requesting that a utility easement be reserved within Ginger road to allow the
4
extension of water and/or sewer to the properties located along Ginger road
east of Sunrise Road. The County Attorney indicated that to comply with this
request the public hearing would need to be continued to receive permission
from the property owners. Eddie Kirk's recommendation is to continue the
public hearing.
Petitioner Richard S. Surwit explained that the reason they want
to close this right-of-way is because they want to buy the property from Mr.
Levine to extend their lots. Allowing this easement through this property
would make it of limited use. He questioned where the OWASA line would go.
The road deadends into a house that is already served by OWASA. They would
not be in favor of granting the easement.
Mr. Don Levine, owner of the property, spoke in opposition of this
request by OWASA.
After an extended discussion, it was decided that OWASA could
negotiate with the property owners after the road is closed.
Motion was made by Commissioner Willhoit, seconded by Commissioner
Gordon to close the public hearing and to adopt the order as stated below:
ORDER CLOSING THE RIGHT-OF-WAY
FOR GINGER ROAD THAT BORDERS
LOTS 16, 17, 18, 19 AND 20
IN CHANDLER'S GREEN SUBDIVISION
WHEREAS, upon the petition of Richard S. Surwit, Sandra E. Cummings,
Donald Levine, Barbara Levine, Michael J. Murphy, Katherine L. Murphy, Charles
Tsui, and Carl R. Fox, which petition is attached hereto as Exhibit A and
incorporated herein by reference, the Board of County Commissioners, on June
7, 1993, adopted a resolution declaring its intent to close the right-of-way
identified on the map which is part of Exhibit A (hereinafter "the abandoned
right-of-way") ; and
WHEREAS, it appears from the petition that the road in the abandoned
right-of-way has never been constructed; and
WHEREAS, as provided by law, the Board of Commissioners of Orange
County have conducted a public hearing following notice as required by law,
in order to determine that the closing of the abandoned right-of-way is not
contrary to the public interest and in order to determine that no individual
owning property in the vicinity of the abandoned right-of-way or in the
subdivision in which the abandoned right-of-way is located would thereby be
deprived of reasonable means of ingress and egress to his or her property; and
WHEREAS, the Board finds as a fact from the evidence presented at the
public hearing that (1) it is not contrary to the public interest for the
abandoned right-of-way to be closed, and (2) no individual owning property in
the vicinity of the abandoned right-of-way or in the subdivision in which the
abandoned right-of-way is located would thereby be deprived of reasonable
means of ingress and egress to his or her property.
IT IS THEREFORE ORDERED that the right-of-way for Ginger Road that
borders lots 16, 17, 18, 19 and 20 in Chandler's Green Subdivision identified
on the map which is part of Exhibit A to this order is hereby closed. The
Chair of the Board of Commissioners of Orange County is hereby authorized to
sign this order on behalf of Orange County and the Clerk to the Board of
Commissioners is authorized to attest this order and to affix to it the County
5
seal.
VOTE: UNANIMOUS
B. PROPOSED NCDOT 1993-94 SECONDARY ROAD IMPROVEMENTS PROGRAM
Mr. J. W. Watkins, Division Engineer with the Department of
Transportation introduced Mr. Gorman Gilbert as the new member from Orange
County appointed to the Board of Transportation.
Mr. Watkins reported on what was accomplished last year in the
secondary roads program and the program for this year. They did not rerate
the roads this year. The Board of Transportation will be reviewing the rating
formula and decide this fall when to rerate the roads. They would like to
receive input from the County Commissioners on how to change the rating
system. In answer to a question from Commissioner Halkiotis, Mr.
Watkins indicated that their goal was to pave every unpaved road with fifty
cars or more within ten years. He pointed out that on the list of unpaved
roads, priority 100 and under have less than fifty cars. Statewide they are
on schedule and expect to meet their goal. He explained that money is
allocated for each county and the roads compete against the roads in that
County only. There is a procedure for paving out of priority that includes
a public hearing and a presentation before the Board of Transportation.
THE PUBLIC HEARING WAS OPEN FOR CITIZEN COMMENTS
Mr. Steve Rogers made reference to a letter written to the Planning
Department on October 14, 1987 complaining of the site distance problem on
Dawson Road which is 116 on the list. A memo to Planner Eddie Kirk on
November 16, 1987 requested that he meet with DOT about the problem. On
November 20, 1987, a memo was sent to the Planning Director stating that the
Department of Transportation agreed that there was a problem and offered one
suggestion on how to remedy it which required approval from the landowners and
money from the unpaved road improvement fund or the safety fund which the
County Commissioners would have to approve. A meeting was held on December
1, 1987 requesting that the Dawson Road project be scheduled in the 1988-89
NCDOT budget from either of these funds. This request was approved. However,
a landowner who lives out of state would not sign the right-of-way agreement
and nothing could be done. In 1991, Dawson Road was surveyed for paving and
everyone signed the right-of-way. Considering that Dawson Road has been moved
down the list for several years and other newly developed roads have taken
priority and considering that this road is not in the best condition and
school buses use this road, he asked that they please give Dawson Road #1
priority to be paved. Mr. Watkins assured Mr. Rogers that Dawson Road is on
the list to be paved in 1993-94.
Penny Flake spoke about High Rock Road. This road is paved to Ira
Road. There are bolders protruding out of the road. When it rains, water
washes out the bottom of the road. This road is used by citizens traveling
to Highway 70. There is a one-mile stretch that needs to be paved to complete
this road. She asked that it be moved up on the list and that some type of
road maintenance be done on the road now.
Mr. Watkins explained that High Rock Road was rated in sections. This
one section has a very low home count which is the reason it is low on the
priority list.
Commissioner Insko asked that consideration be given to rerating these
6
roads. A copy of the rating procedure was distributed. Suggestions will be
forwarded to the Board of Transportation.
Frances H. Mace spoke about Camp Chestnut Ridge Road. She indicated
that this road is full of potholes and rocks that protrude out of the road
surface. This road is used by hundreds of kids during the summer and during
the winter months they have retreats at this camp. She asked that it be
brought up to specifications. Mr. Watson will look at this road.
Motion was made by Commissioner Willhoit, seconded by Commissioner
Insko to close the public hearing and to approve the proposed North Carolina
Department of Transportation 1993-94 Secondary Road Improvement Program as
presented with the understanding that the specific concerns stated above will
be reviewed.
VOTE: UNANIMOUS
VII. REPORTS
A. TASK FORCE ON THE PROCESS FOR ELECTING COUNTY COMMISSIONERS REPORT
Keith Cook, Chair of the Task Force on the Process for Electing
County Commissioners, summarized the final report and the minority report.
Mr. Cook and the members of the task force were commended for the
work they accomplished within a short period of time.
Comments were received from several members of the task force and
members of the public.
Mr. Bob Ferguson, task force member, asked that the County
Commissioners read the minutes of their meetings and that the task force be
allowed to continue to find a way to help those who feel disenfranchised.
Mr. Steven Levine feels it is time to examine the Orange County
Board of Elections process. He feels the two public hearings were poorly
advertised. He would like to see the Board increased from five up to nine to
eleven members.
Mr. Richard Hammer, task force member, noted that the opinions of
the members of the task force did not change throughout the entire process.
He noted that the final report was written by Mr. Cook. The task force
members did not vote to approve the report. He feels the whole point of view
was slanted and not presented as the majority stated. His first choice is
cumulative voting.
Ms. Madeline Levine expressed her concern that the vote came down
racial lines. She told about the method of voting used in Cambridge,
Massachusetts and will share that information with the Board at a later time.
She hopes this is not the end of the process.
Mr. Ben Lloyd stated that there are a lot of people who feel they
are not represented on the County Commissioners. He asked that the Board
consider district representation.
Mr. Henry Whitfield noted that different segments of the community
are not represented. For example there is not a representative from
agriculture on the Board. He would like for the County Commissioners to
extend the time for this task force until they come up with something that
will do something for the people in this county.
Patrick Mulkey, task force member, urged the County Commissioners
to read the minutes of the task force meetings. He feels the system is unfair
7
to both the rural and urban citizens.
Mr. Sim Efland noted he was a County Commissioner when the Board
considered township representation. He commended the Board for what they have
accomplished and stated that they need to get good people to run from the
rural area. He suggested having township representation with an alternate in
each township. He feels this would increase communications so that the people
in the townships would know what is happening.
Mr. Mark Marcoplos made reference to the report and stated he feels
the racial division on the task force is not an issue. The main point is that
no one spoke at the public hearing in favor of the current system. He hopes
the process will continue.
The County Commissioners received the report.
B. SWIMMING POOL FINANCING PROPOSAL
John Link explained the proposal as offered by the Municipal
Financial Group, Inc. for financing a swimming pool. The financing mechanism
would be the use of a 1163-20" Corporation Financing instrument that places the
corporate debt on the Triangle Youth Hockey Association (TYHA) , not the
County. The County must agree to accept title to the facility financed with
the proceeds of the tax-exempt obligations when the tax-exempt obligations are
discharged. Orange County could reconvey the title, but it must wait at least
90 days and there can be no pre-discharge agreement to reconvey. This
proposal assumes that the facility will be built at the Meadowlands.
Ben Lloyd of Efland expressed a concern that the County is willing
to allocate funds to this project, yet do nothing about the raw sewage running
down the ditches in Cheeks Township. He would like to see this money spent
on solving the problem in Cheeks rather than on a swimming pool.
Chair Carey explained that the County has built part of the sewer
system in Efland, therefore, fulfilling its legal obligation. The County has
filed two proposals for grants to extend the system further. Further
extensions will be done with grant money and contributions from the people in
the community who will benefit from using the system.
There was an extended discussion concerning the merits of the
financing proposal. Commissioner Insko wanted to know what circumstances
would lead the manager to stop pursing this particular project. Chair Carey
asked why the project was more feasible for the Municipal Financial Group than
the banks. Commissioner Gordon posed several questions about the financing
of the pool-ice rink complex and asked about the risks involved for the
County. She was concerned that TYHA had essentially no collateral for the
loan. Commissioner Willhoit wondered what would happen if the facility failed
after a few years of operation.
A motion was made by Commissioner Insko, seconded by Commissioner
Halkiotis to adopt the resolution stated below which authorizes staff to
continue negotiations that will produce final documents and agreements for the
Board of County Commissioners to consider and to support continuation of the
Small Business Technology Development Center to work with the TYHA to produce
a final management plan that correlates with the financing proposal.
R E S O L U T I O N
WHEREAS, the Triangle Youth Hockey Association (the "Association") is
a non-profit corporation created pursuant to Chapter 55A of the General
Statues of North Carolina which has been in existence since 1981; and
8
WHEREAS, the Association has proposed the development of a Triangle
Community Activity Center (the "Activity Center") to be located at The
Meadowlands on Highway 70 Business, just east of Hillsborough; and
WHEREAS, the Activity Center would include a full-size ice rink, an
olympic size swimming pool (the "Pool") , and communal rooms and equipment to
provide fitness classes and spaces for local clubs and organizations to meet;
and
WHEREAS, the Association has presented a business plan prepared by the
North Carolina Small Business and Technology Development Center establishing
that, based on the assumptions and projections set forth therein, such an
Activity Center is economically viable; and
WHEREAS, the Orange County Board of Commissioners (the "Board") has
established a reserve fund for the construction of a public swimming pool
facility in the Hillsborough area as part of the County's 1992-1997 capital
improvement plans; and
WHEREAS, the Association has proposed the financing of the entire
Activity Center through a financing pursuant to the provisions of Internal
Revenue Service Revenue Proclamation 63-20, under which a non-profit
corporation may, under the guidelines set forth therein, finance construction
of a public facility through a tax-exempt financing; and
WHEREAS, through the proposed 1163-20" financing, the Association would
be permitted to issue tax-exempt obligations to finance construction of the
Center, including the Pool, which would result in the development of a public
pool at a cost similar to the cost of public pool if the County were to
finance and construct the Pool itself; and
WHEREAS, the Board recognizes the public need for the Pool, is
interested in agreements that will enable the Pool to be constructed and
operated for the benefit of the public, and further, the County would agree
to assist financially in enabling such a Pool to be constructed and operated.
NOW, THEREFORE, BE IT RESOLVED that: the County Manager and County
Finance Director are hereby authorized and directed to proceed with
negotiations with the Association and Municipal Financial Group exclusive as
placement agent per the financing proposal dated July 23, 1993 for financing
and development of the Pool.
VOTE: AYES, 4; NOS, 1 (Commissioner Gordon)
C. TORNADO UNMET NEEDS COMMITTEE REPORT
Albert Kittrell presented an overview of the various human service
activities that were coordinated and implemented in response to the November
1992 tornado that struck Hillsborough. There were two fatalities, 14 reported
injuries and structural damages estimated at $1,953 , 000. In an effort to
provide the necessary assistance to those persons affected by the tornado, the
Manager's Office established an "Unmet Needs Committee" . They were
responsible for the overall coordination of relief efforts both immediate and
long-term. Commissioner Halkiotis asked about the status of getting
emergency generators for the two high schools.
VIII. ITEMS FOR DECISION - REGULAR AGENDA
A. ORANGE COUNTY ZONING ATLAS AMENDMENT - Z-2-93 LAKE HOGAN FARM
Mary Willis presented a rezoning request for property owned by
Lake Hogan Farm, Inc. The area proposed to be rezoned is located on the east
9
side of Old NC86 north of Homestead Road. The property consists of all or
part of seven parcels totaling approximately 264 acres. The property is
currently zoned R-R, which allows a density of up to 1 dwelling unit per acre.
The proposed zoning is R-20, which allows a density of up to 2 . 1 dwelling
units per acre. The project itself will be approved by the Town of Carrboro
through their Special Use process.
Commissioner Willhoit noted that the rezoning would set a good
precedent for the area, since the Land Use Plan would have allowed for
significantly greater densities than 2.1 units per acre. Commissioner Insko
stated that she had seen plans for the development of Lake Hogan Farm and that
they appeared to be a good use of the land. Commissioner Gordon said that
there were public health and safety reasons for not granting the rezoning at
this time.
Motion was made by Commissioner Willhoit, seconded by Chair Carey to
approve the proposed rezoning.
VOTE: AYES, 4; NOS, 1 (Commissioner Gordon)
B. ORANGE COUNTY ZONING ATLAS AMENDMENT - Z-3-93 VIRGINIA POLLITZER
Mary Willis presented for the Board's consideration a rezoning
request for property owned by Virginia Pollitzer. The area to be rezoned is
located about 1/3 mile south of Homestead Road and about 1/2 mile east of Old
NC 86 in the Calvander community. The property consists of two parcels
totaling 16 acres and is currently zoned R-20, which allows a density of up
to 2 . 1 dwelling units per acre. The proposed zoning is R-15 which allows a
density of up to 2.9 dwelling units per acre. The Carrboro Board of Aldermen
approved the rezoning request on May 25, 1993 .
A motion was made by Commissioner Halkiotis, seconded by
Commissioner Willhoit to approve the proposed rezoning as presented.
VOTE: UNANIMOUS
C. SMOKING ORDINANCE
John Link presented for the Board's consideration of adoption a
proposed Smoking Ordinance. This ordinance would prohibit smoking in
buildings owned by or leased to Orange County Government and motor vehicles
owned or leased to Orange County.
After a brief discussion, it was decided that the Manager will work
with the Sheriff to provide a smoke free environment for those prisoners who
do not smoke. Also, banning smoking in county vehicles will be reconsidered
to permit smoking for those deputies traveling alone.
The Board asked for a list of designated smoking areas in each
County facility.
Register of Deeds Betty June Hayes stated that the policy is far
too restrictive and asked that smoking areas be designated in each building
for those employees who smoke. She does not feel that County employees should
have to leave the building to smoke.
Nick Nichols of the Sheriff's Department noted that there are a lot
of health hazards in addition to that of smoking. He asked that there be
designated smoking areas in each building that has adequate ventilation
systems.
This proposed ordinance will be on the next agenda for
consideration of adoption. The Board will decide at that time the extent they
want to go to create a designated area in each building for smoking and the
10
amount of money they want to allocate for this purpose.
