Budget Amendment #17 The Board considered approving budget ordinance, capital projects, and grant project ordinance amendments for fiscal year 2005-06. Commissioner Gordon made reference to page 2, item ii, which states, "Account for $1,119,470 to various County departments to distribute for budget savings generated by the 120-day hiring delay of vacant non-critical County positions and savings in Medicaid." She asked what this means. Budget Director Donna Dean-Coffey said that last year during the budget adoption process, there were several reserves set up and the Board directed staff to identify specific operational savings throughout the year. This $1.1 million is identifying the remainder that was seen in operational savings during the year, mainly through hiring delays and Medicaid. Commissioner Gordon asked about the Efland Sewer Construction and she thought that they were going to utilize grant funding. Donna Dean-Coffey said that phase two had the grant funding and they already approved the Efland Sewer Capital Project Ordinance. This is transferring money from other projects to the Efland Sewer project. The Board approved this transfer at the May 4th meeting. Commissioner Gordon asked that it be put in there that the cost would be recovered by using grant funding that may be available later. Commissioner Halkiotis asked the Board to consider asking the Manager that from now until the completion of the project, that the Board receive information on a weekly basis from the County Engineer as to the progress on putting in the water and sewer line at the Gravelly Hill Middle School. He asked if they were on schedule. Rod Visser said that they have regular meetings to discuss this and there is good progress is being made.. Out of 9,000 linear feet of water line, about 4,000 of that is in the ground. He thinks that they are on track. A motion was made by Commissioner Halkiotis, seconded by Commissioner Gordon to approve the attached budget, capital projects, and grant project ordinance amendments for Department of Social Services, Reserves and Operational Savings Distribution, Emergency Management, Efland Sewer Construction, Department on Aging, Housing and Community Development, Orange Public Transportation, Indirect Cost, Medicaid Maximization Capital Project Ordinance, and SportsPlex Enterprise Fund.

Status Report on Middle College High School at Durham Technical Community College The Board received a status report on activities, successes, challenges, and future plans concerning the Middle College High School at Durham Technical Community College. John Link introduced Dr. Charles Nolan, Principal of the Middle College. Dr. Nolan said that the definition for middle college is a school program for 11th and 12th graders only and students apply to get in. They are typically located on community college campuses and it is an opportunity for students to take high school courses and community college courses while they are in high school. It also is in a different setting, and the maximum enrollment is 200 students. They will be accepting students from three different school districts -Durham Schools, Orange County Schools, and Chapel Hill-Carrboro City Schools. There is a percentage allotment - 50% of the spaces go to Durham Schools, 25% goes to OCS, and 25% goes to CHCCS. There are three outcomes for the students -they can get community college credit that is transferable to a four-year university, they can stay on for another year or semester and get an Associates Degree, or they can get industry certification (construction, health care, computer network).
