The Coalition's focus is to educate the public and promote the interest of the homeless and their associated needs nationwide. It involves an increase in lobbying at the federal level to try to increase the support for the homeless in this country. They met with the IFC as part of a survey of gathering information from other than large metropolitan areas. The focus was on what Orange County is doing for the homeless in the County. Emphasis was placed on the problem being a total community problem and how everyone can work together to meet the needs of the homeless. ~. Commissioner Halkiotis reported on the. meeting with the Cattlemen's Association that took place on January 28. Two committees were formed: (1) to look into the acquisition of the livestock market by Goldkist from FCX; (2) to brainstorm and determine how the County Commissioners can help.

PUBLIC CHARGE Chair Marshall read the Public Charge as approved by the Board and written in the Rules and Regulations. D. RESOLUTTONSjPROCLAMATIONS~ 1. OUTLINE OF AGREEMENT IN PRINCIPLE AS SUBMITTED BY THE JOINT PLANNING/WATERSHED WORK ,GROUP Commissioner Willhoit explained that the thirteen (13) points as listed by the Joint Planning/Watershed Work Group is an attempt to separate out and to consider specific issues at the February 23, 1987 public hearing instead of hearing all the issues at the March 10, 1987 Joint Area Public Hearing. The outline of the agreement in principle has been approved by the Towns of Chapel Hill and Carrboro and both agreed to the February 23 public hearing. Robert Morgan, Town Manager of Carrboro, spoke about the land swap and the option of the acre for acre exchange versus density basis. County Attorney Geoffrey Gledhill clarified that under the .existing Joint Planning Agreement with Chapel Hill any change in the Land Use Plan must be approved by both Chapel Hill and Orange County. There is na problem with setting up a part of the 23rd meeting as a Joint Public Hearing with Chapel Hill. There was a consensus of the Board that approval of these thirteen points in principle does not support or endorse the swapping of ` land but only that the Board agrees to take the issue to public hearing. Commissioner Willhoit explained that #7 indicates that the County agrees to go to public hearing on the moving of the transition line and that the County will go to public hearing on the advisability of supporting the change. Commissioner Halkiotis referred to #11 and emphasized that the approval of the thirteen (13) items will provide an opportunity for people who live in that area to make comments. Geoffrey Gledhill responded to a question from Commissioner Halkiotis on item #il stating that legislation is needed that would permit local governments to make joint legislative decisions. Bob Morgan pointed to the map indicating an area that should have been included in the transition area for Carrboro. The area is north of Carrboro's town border and would put Calvander in Carrboro's extra- territorial jurisdiction. Planning Director Marvin Collins noted that to add this specific area to the transition area would be consistent with the lot sizes in that area because most of the non-conforming lots are in that area. Bob Morgan requested that the acre-for-acre distribution be included in the public hearing so that public reaction may be received. Motion was made by Commissioner Carey, seconded by Commissioner Willhoit to adopt the resolution as stated below: A RESOLUTION REGARDING JOINT PLANNING, WATERSHED PROTECTION, ANNEXATION AND RELATED MATTERS WHEREAS, the Towns of Carrboro and Chapel Hill and Orange County haver. mutual interests in .land use and growth management, annexation matters, and watershed protection; and WHEREAS, a Joint Planning/Watershed Work Group including representatives of the Towns of Carrboro and Chapel Hill and Orange County has met several times since the fall of 1986 to discuss such matters; and WHEREAS, the Joint Planning/Watershed Work Group has developed an. "Outline of Agreement in Principle" dated January 21, 1987 and containing 13 statements of principle; and the Joint Planning/Watershed Work Group has agreed to submit this document to the Carrboro, Chapel Hi11 and Orange County governing bodies for consideration, and recommends approval in concept of the 13 principles; NOW, THEREFORE, BE IT RESOLVED that the Board of Commissioners of orange County hereby approves in concept. the attached "outline of Agreement in Principle" dated January 21, 1987 and including 13 principles. This the 2nd day of February, 1987. VOTE: UNANIMOUS. 2. DISSOLUTION OF EXISTING HSAC Motion was made by Commissioner Willhoit, seconded by Commissioner Carey to approve the resolution as stated below: RESOLUTION DISSOLVING HUMAN SERVICES ADVISORY COMMISSION WHEREAS, the Board of Commissioners established the Orange County .Human Services Advisory Commission by resolution on February 5, 1979; and WHEREAS, the Board of Commissioners has identified a need to renew the charge, recompose the membership, and redefine tY~e role of the Human Services Advisory Commission; and WHEREAS, the Board of Commissioners has approved the restructuring of __:-~ the Human Services Advisory Commission, NOW, THEREFORE, BE IT RESOLVED that the Orange County Board of Commissioners hereby dissolves the Human Services Advisory Commission, charge and by-laws established on February 5, 1979.

EFLAND SEWER STATUS Assistant County Manager Bill Laws stated that the encroachment agreement with Southern Railroad is on .the agenda for Board approval and that one of the easements that was questionable is still. pending but an agreement has been reached and just needs the required signatures. 2. LONG RANGE SPACE NEEDS Commissioner Carey reiterated his previous comments about the proposed move for the Department on Aging and the Northside .facility. He noted, and the Board agreed, that the proposal perpetuates and encourages the psychological perspective that the people who receive the services at Northside have of this section of town. Toni. Mason from CHR indicated her decision was based on the existing space available. Housing and Community Development which is currently located at the old Police Station has a much stronger requirement to be located near the Social Services Department which is currently at Northside. The Social Services Department needs to expand their space now and Housing and Community Development also needs additional space and also they feel their location at the old Police Station is very inappropriate. Jerry Passmore indicated that the administrative section of the Department on Aging needs to be in a higher profile (more visible) location. Commissioner Carey noted that while a higher profile is ''. important, the proposal is to move to an eastern location which could also be quite. expensive. Chair Marshall emphasized that the senior center was put at the present location to make it accessible to those people who Jive in that area and needed the services being offered. Social Services was then .. moved in the building. She expressed her opposition to this proposal. Department on Aging Director Jerry Passmore distributed an analysis which showed a breakdown of where the people live .that come to the center for services. He indicated that the Department has more and more people coming to the center on a one time basis. The group activity center is for those who come on a daily basis to participate in the activities available. He felt the administrative offices could be pulled out and put into a more visible location to serve those who come on a one time basis. The bulk of the older population live in the eastern part of town and two-thirds of all older people live in Chapel Hill. Commissioner Hartwell made reference to the 8,000 sq.ft. that is proposed as an addition to Northside and asked if that site would accommodate a larger expansion. Ken Thompson indicated that there is enough space to expand further on that property and that the slope in front could be built upon or used for parking. Jerry Passmore suggested that the entire design of the property needs to be reviewed to enhance the security of the building and to provide easier accessibility. Chair Marshall emphasized that the maximum use of the Northside property needs to be studied. Commissioner Carey asked about the long-term facilities at the garage. Mason noted that the report only addressed office space. Ken Thompson stated that the Public Works facility would be covered in a different report. Chair Marshall emphasized that any long-range plan must includes handicapped accessibility. After further discussion, it was decided that a publ~.c hearing would be scheduled as soon as the entire five-year plan is available. F.
