Section 5. Although not a part of the County appropriation for the CHCCS High School #3
project, it is noted here for reference purposes that the Chapel Hill-Carrboro Board
of Education intends to appropriate an additional $50,000 in North Carolina
Department of Transportation funds from its own funding sources, bringing the
project total to $35,942,000.
Section 6. This ordinance supersedes the interlocal agreement dated August 7, 2003 (with
subsequent Addendum "A" and Addendum "B") as the controlling instrument
regarding Phase I (generally as described and defined in Addendum "A" of the
August 7, 2003 interlocal agreement) of High School #3 project budget, scope, and
timing. The following provisions of the previously existing interlocal agreement and
addenda remain expectations of the Orange County Board of Commissioners
regarding smart-growth promoting standards that the Chapel Hill-Carrboro Board of
Education will incorporate into the project scope, design, and plans for Phase I and
Phase II of CHCCS high school #3:
1. Transportation Standards. The building shall be located within '/2 mile of an
existing or planned trail, greenway, bikeway or bus line. The design of CHCCS
high school #3 and its facilities shall provide bike racks and storage for 10% of the
building occupants, provide preferred parking for carpools and alternative vehicles
and reduce parking lot size and its associated impervious surfaces by at least 35%
from Orange County School Construction Standards by providing no more than
420 spaces for Phase I and Phase II student/teacher/staff/ visitor motor vehicle
parking, all to be constructed with Phase I.
2. Site Standards. The design of CHCCS high school #3 and its facilities shall (1)
preserve a minimum of 30% of the site in undeveloped space; and (2) provide
shade on at least 30% of non-roof impervious surface on the site within 5 years or
use an open grid pavement system, with less than 50% impervious surface, for
50% of the parking area. The site shall comply with the Town of Carrboro's new
stream protection plan and implement a storm management plan that does not
increase the rate or quality of runoff from the site.
3. Building Standards. The building design shall stress compact design features
including multi-story construction. The physical education and athletic facilities
shall be designed to minimize land disturbance.
4. Water Use Standards. Design standards shall have a goal of aggregate water
reduction of 20% of the base, not including irrigation, after meeting EPA 1992
fixture performance requirements with respect to irrigation and reflect xeriscaping
principles.
5. Shared Use Standards. Design standards shall provide the public with non-
school hour access to exterior spaces, including a vita track, cross country course
designed and maintained to increase environmental awareness and interior spaces
for community use including common areas, auditoria and meeting rooms.
13
ATTACHMENT 6
6. CHCCS High Performance Standards. Design standards shall comply with the
high performance building design criteria in School Board Policy 9040.
7. Public Road Improvement Standards. Endorse the timely construction of road
improvements to Smith Level Road and intersection improvements to the
intersection of Rock Haven Road and Smith Level Road which improvements have
been endorsed by Carrboro and Orange County and which improvements, if timely
constructed, will reduce by as much as $250,000 the offsite road improvement cost
to CHCCS in its construction of CHCCS high school #3.
8. Transportation Enhancement Standards. Reduce dependency on the
automobile for school functions and to reduce vehicle miles traveled related to
school functions by committing at least $300,000 of capital from the amount
appropriated to the Construction line item of Section 4 to:
a. the purchase of buses or shuttles to be owned by CHCCS or otherwise, in
tandem with the development of an enhanced transportation system, for
school uses and functions, including student, staff and teacher transportation
to and from school and student, staff, teacher and visitor transportation to and
from preschool and afterschool programs;
b. contributions of funds and expertise to the evaluation and development of
the use of Chapel Hill Area Transit and/or Orange Public Transportation to
provide non-automobile alternatives for transportation of students, staff,
teachers and visitors to and from school, preschool and afterschool programs;
c. the purchase of transit software to be used to reduce vehicle miles traveled
in future redistricting decisions;
d. promote walking to and from school and pre and after school programs by
funding with matching grants the construction of sidewalks in Carrboro and
Chapel Hill located within 1.5 miles of CHCCS high school #3 (the school "walk
zone") which sidewalks are likely to be constructed by Carrboro and Chapel
Hill only in response to matching grants;
e.. promote bike riding to and from school and pre and after school programs
