Maps of Efland Mebane Phase II Director, 919-245-2326 Extension Craig Benedict, Planning Director, 919-245-2592 John Roberts, County Attorney, 919-245-2318 PURPOSE: To conduct a Public Hearing on the appropriation of Economic Development funds using the Article 46 apportionment for Economic Development in accordance with recently modified state law, SL 2015-277. BACKGROUND: A recent (summer 2015) state law change now requires additional specificity when expending funds for Economic Development. In consultation with the County Attorney's office, this change requires a more elaborate explanation of the use/purpose and justification of public benefit related to Economic Development monies. This information would be noticed to the public via a newspaper advertisement for input. The information required complements prior adopted Capital Investment Plan (CIP) and budget approvals from a past and current year budget. The attached advertisement meets those requirements. The project is the Efland Mebane Phase II Extension which was approved by the Board in June 2015. The advertisement explains the project and a map is attached to show the area. FINANCIAL IMPACT: The monies have been budgeted in prior and current year CIP budgets in the amount of approximately $4.93 million funded from Article 46 funds. SOCIAL JUSTICE IMPACT: There is no Orange County Social Justice Goal impact associated with this item. RECOMMENDATION(S): The Manager recommends that the Board: • Conduct the Public Hearing; and • Close the Public Hearing ATTACHMENT 1 2 PUBLICATION INSTRUCTION: Please publish the following notice in the Special Notice Section of the Classified Advertisements on Monday, January 18, 2016. r e A 17 Iiy am:47a! 52 ....00,/ PUBLIC HEARING Tuesday, February 02, 2016 at 7:00 p.m. WHITTED HUMAN SERVICES CENTER COMPLEX 300 West Tryon Street Hillsborough, NC 27278 This is to inform the public that a public hearing will be held on the proposed Orange County Efland Sewer to Mebane, Phase 2 Extension project, which includes acquisition of private property sewer easements (temporary construction and permanent), as well as purchase (100% fee simple) of a new lot for the West Ten Pump Station. These easement property interests will be acquired on the following parcels: 9854184217, 9854175987, 9854178549, 9854161576, 9844961126, 9844963059, 9844965134, 9844963252, 9844867573, 9844861573, 9844855497, 9844658028, 9844831368, and 9844644800 which is a 100% interest (i.e. purchase). Improvements consist of approximately 7,300 lineal feet of gravity sewer, 19,400 lineal feet of force main and one sewage pump station which will be within existing road right of way and easements on private property. There are three (3) add alternates designed into the project to allow the County to "adjust" the bid(s) to the project budget. So, the add alternates may not actually be included and constructed. The subject of the hearing is to approve expenditure of Article 46 sales tax proceeds for funding and to serve as notice to the community of pending construction. Benefits: 1) Economic stimulus to the Buckhorn-Mebane Economic Development District by installing infrastructure to help diversify the tax base, 2) promoting compact urban development consistent with the adopted County Comprehensive Plan goals and Land Use Map 3) reduced sewage treatment costs,4) increased availability of public sewer and 5) less reliance on ground septic system infrastructure fields. CIP BUDGET - Total Cost Estimate (Infrastructure, Power Supply, Easements, Pump Station Lot, Title Work, Environmental Investigation/Mitigation, Archeological & Cultural Evaluation, Engineering, Permitting, Construction Engineering & Inspection): $4,973,000.00 S:\Agendas\2016\02-02-16\5-a 1 -Legal Advertisement.doc 3 Further information can be obtained by contacting Howard W.
