Matters not on the Printed Agenda Jack Pless was representing Preserve Rural Orange and said that this group is concerned about the proposed consolidated expanded UNC animal research campus in Bingham Township. This is a $27 million upgrade to a 56-acre facility that is located on Orange Clover Garden Chapel Road. It is consolidated in that UNC is moving consolidated operations from the research laboratory at University Lake to this campus. The choice of the word "campus" is drawn from UNC's own master plan for this facility. He said that UNC has used a permit by right to be able to construct this facility and the wastewater treatment outside of oversight by the County. He asked the County Commissioners to explore to what extent the County could intercede on the residents' behalf to ameliorate waste and water runoff and the discharge of untreated effluent into the creek, which is behind this facility and it is a tributary to the Haw River. He said that this facility is going to have an impact. He made reference to press releases that have announced press releases that have announced that UNC has had to cease the wastewater treatment at that facility. There is now a pump and haul operation. He asked the County Commissioners to investigate this. Alex Castro was also representing Preserve Rural Orange. He said that Preserve Rural Orange has been meeting with UNC, who has been open to community input. Preserve Rural Orange has proposed to UNC that they agree to establish a community advisory committee. He asked the County Commissioners to consider having County staff that have expertise to be available and to be consulted for technical expertise. b.

VOTE ON CONSENT AGENDA: UNANIMOUS ITEMS REMOVED FROM CONSENT AGENDA: h. Eurosport Soccer Center Master Plan Revision and Additional Parking The Board considered a potential revision to the approved Master Plan for the Eurosport Soccer Center and authorizing construction of the expanded Phase 2 parking lot using existing capital funds. Commissioner Gordon said that she had asked for additional information on this. She said that it looks like the concern is that there are more people than parking spaces on Tuesday and Thursday evenings between 6-8 p.m. and if there is a tournament over the weekend, there are not enough parking spaces. She said that this parking problem seems to have a rather limited time frame and she asked why improved scheduling could not be used to address this issue. Parks and Recreation Director Lori Taft said that Tuesdays and Thursdays are the worst conflicts with all of the school activities. There are a lot of spectators for these activities and the parking lot for the school is at capacity. She said that it is a serious problem and people are getting blocked in and parking in the fire lane. Commissioner Gordon asked why this would take precedence over other pressing needs since this item is being discussed outside of the budget process and it is a tight budget year. Frank Clifton said that, in researching this item, there was supposed to be an agreement between the schools and the County, but it did not happen. He said that whether there is parking there or not, people are going to park there anyway and park anywhere. He said that if the County builds a facility, it should build enough parking to support the activities. Commissioner Hemminger said that she is very supportive of the additional parking. This is a big safety issue and needs to be addressed. Commissioner Gordon asked why this was not planned better and why it was in Phase 2. Lori Taft said that the additional parking planned for the school campus is there and their lot for the County is only for 40 spaces. Frank Clifton said that there was supposed to be an agreement with the schools for parking but it never materialized. Commissioner Jacobs said that he has always been supportive of the soccer complex but he has some of the same concerns as Commissioner Gordon since the County is supposed to be watching all of its expenditures during this budget process. He is also concerned that everything is not nailed down. He remembers having conversations with the school system about the facilities being used in tandem. Commissioner Pelissier said that she is concerned about safety but if this parking lot was planned for Phase 2 of the soccer center, then would any additional parking have to be built for the school. She also wants to pin down all of the information. Lori Taft said that she thinks it would solve the majority of the parking problems. In the case of large tournaments, these will be scheduled way ahead. She said that this is a good stop gap measure. A motion was made by Commissioner Hemminger, seconded by Commissioner Yuhasz to approve a revision to the approved Master Plan for the Eurosport Soccer Center and authorize construction of the expanded Phase 2 parking lot using existing capital funds. VOTE: Ayes, 5; Nays, 2 (Commissioner Gordon and Commissioner Jacobs) i. Schools Adequate Public Facilities Ordinance (SAPFO) — Receipt and Transmittal of 2010 Annual Technical Advisory Committee Report The Board received the 2010 Annual Report of the SAPFO Technical Advisory Committee and considered transmitting it to the SAPFO partners for comments before certification in May. Commissioner Gordon said that the Board is only supposed to review this tonight, not give final approval. This will also be sent to the towns. She asked what would be an appropriate date to get a more complete report back from the schools and some suggestions on how to proceed for the Pre-K classroom issue. She said that each school system has Pre-K classrooms and sometimes space for K-5 will be used. CHCCS was particularly concerned about the implications of that. She wants to make sure there is a date nailed down to come back with a more complete report. Shannon Berry said that CHCCS will discuss this in March. She will ask OCS for a date. A motion was made by Commissioner Gordon, seconded by Commissioner Nelson to ask that the Board of County Commissioners get a complete report back in April before the meeting with the school boards. Commissioner Yuhasz asked about the obligation for providing Pre-K space. Shannon Berry said that the school construction standards have one classroom. Frank Clifton said that he would research this. Commissioner Gordon said to include this in her motion. Commissioner Jacobs asked Commissioner Gordon why it is important to get this back before the meeting with the school systems. Commissioner Gordon said that she wants to have it so that they can discuss it. She will leave it up to the Chair and Vice-Chair to say if it should be should be a report or a discussion item. VOTE: UNANIMOUS A motion was made by Commissioner Gordon, seconded by Commissioner Hemminger to receive the 2010 SAPFOTAC Annual Report and authorize the Chair to sign the transmittal letter to SAPFO partners contained in Attachment 1. VOTE: UNANIMOUS USDA Rural Utilities Service Broadband Initiatives Program for Rural Broadband Service Extension The Board considered authorizing the County to apply for federal American Recovery & Reinvestment Act (ARRA) stimulus funds through the USDA Rural Utilities Services (RUS) Broadband Initiatives Program (BIP) to fund the extension of broadband service into the un- served, rural portions of Orange County and authorizing the Chair to sign the MOU following completion of the staff's work to finalize the document. Commissioner Jacobs said that he pulled this because he has questions. He said that there is a shifting definition about what constitutes broadband. He does not see a real definition of broadband service. He would like to see this definition included. Also, regarding the Memorandum of Understanding, he said that only one of these sites is owned by Orange County (Cedar Grove Park). When there is an application made, he wants to make sure that the MOU says that the County will follow the same development standards that any private developer will follow. Commissioner Gordon made reference to the language in the abstract and asked what "southernmost part of the County" meant. She said that there are parts in the non-rural area of the County that do not have broadband. Planning Director Craig Benedict said that the definition of rural, un-served, and broadband has been shifting. There are some loose definitions and there have been requests to extend the grant application process since it is a moving target. He said that the southernmost part of the County is the section southeast of Chapel Hill. This area is not defined as rural. Commissioner Jacobs asked if Chatham County has a tower in its northern portion that could serve that area and Craig Benedict said that staff is taking a look at all borders. Commissioner Gordon said that she got an email from a citizen that said there may be some property in Heritage Hills. She will try and retrieve this email. Frank Clifton said that they are trying to look at public property and not ones with a cost. He also said that they can attempt to define what they think is rural, but the County has to go by the guidelines from the federal government. A motion was made by Commissioner Jacobs, seconded by Commissioner Hemminger to approve the Manager's recommendation with the addition of a definition for broadband. - Authorize staff to apply for federal ARRA stimulus funds through the USDA Rural Utilities Service (RUS) Broadband Initiatives Program (BIP) to fund the extension of broadband service into the un-served, rural portions of Orange County; - Approve the map of tower sites for inclusion into the Master Telecommunications Plan and as the basis for the BIP grant application; - Direct staff to finalize the Memorandum of Understanding with American Tower, Inc. regarding future County completion of a grant/loan application to fund new broadband service within the rural underserved and un-served portions of the County; and - Authorize the Chair to sign the MOU following completion of staff's work to finalize the document. VOTE: UNANIMOUS 6. Public Hearings-NONE 7. Regular Agenda a. First Reading: South Orange Rescue Squad, Inc. Emergency Services Franchise Ordinance The Board considered approving the First Reading of a Franchise Ordinance to grant a permit to South Orange Rescue Squad, Inc. for Emergency Medical and Rescue Services. Emergency Services Director Frank Montes de Oca summarized this item. Staff Attorney Annette Moore said that in order to adopt and grant a permit for ambulance services, the County must hold a public hearing. In order to grant a franchise, it must be by ordinance and it may not be adopted until it has passed at two regular meetings. On February 2nd a public hearing was held on the need for ambulance service and the Board did find the need to adopt such an ordinance. At the February 2nd meeting, the Board asked that the staff work further with South Orange Rescue Squad and it has done so. South Orange Rescue Squad has submitted all documents outlining its capabilities. Emergency Services has conducted a review of the documents and worked with the applicant to complete all necessary documentation. Frank Montes de Oca said that the recommendation is that the Board grant on first reading a franchise for five-year terms to South Orange Rescue Squad, Inc., for Emergency Medical Services and Rescue Services.

Acceptance of the County Master Aging Annual Report for 2009 and 2010 Priorities The Board considered accepting the Orange County Master Aging Plan Annual Progress Report for 2009 and approving the priorities for 2010. Steve Lackey, Chair of the Advisory Board on Aging, presented this progress report. Commissioner Hemminger asked about the concept plan for expanding the wellness program and Steve Lackey said that the advisory board is proposing to develop a concept plan to see what an expansion would be like. He said that the Seymour Center Wellness Center is not adequate for their needs. The goal is to see how much it would cost to expand, and if all like it, then they would move forward with the plan. Commissioner Gordon said that in the recommendations the advisory board was looking at options that did not cost the County money. Commissioner Jacobs asked about when the Unified Development Ordinance is being developed and if some of these aging in place standards would be addressed. Craig Benedict said that where there are easy fixes, they will be able to address them. If there are more complex fixes, a placeholder will be put in the UDO. Commissioner Jacobs said that a lot of the same standards would apply to physically- disabled people. He hopes that this community will be involved as well. He made reference to page 21 and the legislative forum and advocacy issues. He said that it would be useful to have a one paragraph explanation of the penalty on married couples. Commissioner Jacobs said that, in reading through the whole document, it would be nice to get a report on how the senior centers are performing based on what was projected. Regarding the discussion on page 8 about planning the East/West public route from Mebane to Durham that would intersect the 420 route, Commissioner Jacobs said that he would like to ask the Chair/Vice-Chair/Manager to have a joint meeting with the Mebane City Council because there are so many issues in common. A motion was made by Commissioner Jacobs, seconded by Commissioner Yuhasz to ask the Chair, Vice-Chair, and the Manager to work on meeting with the Mebane City Council on common issues.

She is very pleased to see this and she hopes that this can be done elsewhere. She would like to know the outcome of this. Commissioner Pelissier asked about the programs sponsored by UNC and said that most of these are offered at the Seymour Center. She asked how the members of the Central Orange Senior Center are served. She asked if there is transportation for these programs. Commissioner Pelissier suggested providing charts for comparison between the two senior centers for services, demands, etc. from year to year. Jerry Passmore encouraged the County Commissioners to come and visit the senior centers, because they are both a tremendous success. Chair Foushee asked about the Caregiver's Day Out and asked if that same program was replicated at the Central Orange Senior Center. Jerry Passmore said that the problem is space and the intention is to replicate the program at Central. 9. County Manager's Report Frank Clifton said that County Government will be on a two-hour delay tomorrow. 10. County Attorney's Report - NONE 11. Appointments-NONE 12. Board Comments Commissioner Yuhasz— none Commissioner Gordon said that at the Triangle Transit Board of Trustees it was noted that the potential date for the regional transit referendum might be during 2011. At the last meeting, there was a discussion about getting a consultant to look at the county plans, the financial model, and to start working on an analysis so that it will be in shape to go to a referendum. She said that it is important to schedule time in a Commissioners meeting agenda to look at these plans because there are a lot of assumptions. Commissioner Hemminger said that she went on the hike with Triangle Land Conservancy of the Rumbling Forest property, which is off of New Hope Church Road. The property includes over 600 acres. The TLC was awarded the Clean Water Trust Fund Grant for this and the hope is to close in April. Commissioner Pelissier said that at the Human Relations event last week the Chair of the Human Relations Commission mentioned that the HRC had been tasked with developing a policy for social justice and it has not been acted upon. She asked why this policy has not been brought forth to the Board of County Commissioners for adoption. Chair Foushee said that the last time it was presented, she had asked staff to research questions that were asked that night and to bring it back to the Board, but it was never brought back. Frank Clifton said that the staff will research this issue. Chair Foushee said that the Board agreed to have a work session on this and it needs to be added to a rolling calendar. Commissioner Jacobs said that he has brought up previously the status of defibrillators in buildings because most meeting facilities do not have them. A motion was made by Commissioner Jacobs, seconded by Commissioner Nelson to ask staff to develop a policy as to where defibrillators should be located within County government. VOTE: UNANIMOUS Commissioner Jacobs said that in listening to the issue about the UNC animal research facility, he thought that Craig Benedict had done a report on this and he asked to get this report. A motion was made by Commissioner Jacobs, seconded by Commissioner Pelissier to get a report on the research that has been done on the UNC animal research facility in Bingham Township. VOTE: UNANIMOUS Commissioner Jacobs said that the Board of Adjustment is meeting on Monday and a lot of residents are upset about a kennel being sited in the rural area as a Class B Special Use Permit. He suggested that the Board of County Commissioners put on a public hearing whether or not kennels should be Class A Special Use Permits. This would make it come in front of the Board of County Commissioners. A motion was made by Commissioner Jacobs, seconded by Commissioner Nelson to request a response back from Planning staff and/or the Attorney about the feasibility of changing the kennels from a Class B to a Class A SUP. VOTE: UNANIMOUS Commissioner Gordon said that there is more to this issue than a Class A versus a Class B SUP. She said that the County is in the process of developing a UDO. She suggested that there are a number of uses that the Board needs to look at with respect to location and standards, such as airports, etc. Commissioner Jacobs said that the Board has also discussed conditional use permitting and he suggested talking about things that are Class B changing to the conditional use permit process. This is for rural Orange County and not just the rural buffer. Commissioner Nelson said that last week he attended the Commission for Women meeting and there was a lot of discussion about the reorganization of the HRR department and about the reorganization of all of the boards and commissions. Chair Foushee said that she received a request from Jim Dooley requesting that the County Commissioners consider having Hog Day back on the County site where it used to be. She will pass this on to staff. Chair Foushee said that she had brought forward to the Board a request that Orange County establish a sister county agreement with a county in China. This county is prepared to come to North Carolina in June and they want from Orange County an official letter inviting them to Orange County. She has talked with Economic Development Director Brad Broadwell about how to move forward. She has also talked with the Chapel Hill-Orange County Visitor's Bureau. She asked if the Board wanted to move forward with this. A motion was made by Commissioner Nelson, seconded by Commissioner Hemminger to authorize the Chair to send a letter to the county in China, inviting them to visit Orange County. VOTE: UNANIMOUS Commissioner Jacobs said that Hog Day moved because of the construction in that area, but there has been an issue about whether or not to rent out parks and charging the public a fee to use a public facility. This was discussed a while back and these issues need to be be addressed going forward. 13. Information Items • February 16, 2010 BOCC Meeting Follow-up Actions List 14.
