PROCLAMATION - CHILD HEALTH DAY OCTOBER 7 1991 Motion was made by Commissioner Gordon, seconded by Commissioner Halkiotis to approve and authorize the Chair to sign the proclamation as stated below which proclaims October 7, 1991 as Child Health Day in Orange County: CHILD HEALTH DAY OCTOBER 7, 1991 BY THE CHAIR OF THE ORANGE COUNTY BOARD OF COMMISSIONERS A PROCLAMATION On Child Health Day we reaffirm our resolve that all of America's children should be assured the best possible start in life and should be protected from hazards and risks that might threaten their life and their health. Providing a safe, secure and nurturing environment for our children is of paramount importance to us as parents and families. It must also become an imperative to which we devote the intelligence and the resources of our communities and our Nation. It is tragic that thousands of our children are dying and thousands more of them are permanently disabled because of injuries, both unintentional and intentional. In 1988, there were 22,426 deaths of children through age 19 caused by injuries. Injuries account for more deaths of children after the first year of life than all other causes combined. Many of these injuries are predictable and preventable. Research into the cause of many of these injuries has resulted in product improvements to reduce hazards, such as safety packaging for medicines and toxic chemicals. Public awareness of some of the safety issues has resulted in legislative changes to reduce hazards, such as statutes throughout the Nation requiring child passenger safety restraints. Local initiatives for requiring bicycle helmets, for fencing around swimming pools, and for playground equipment standards are making significant contributions toward injury reduction when they are adopted. Public education campaigns against drunk driving, vigorous enforcement against child abuse, and training for both children and parents to help them handle anger and reduce violence all make important contributions. We have acquired a wealth of knowledge about effective interventions that can prevent and reduce the incidence of childhood injury. Yet we continue to record the toll of children killed on the highway, on neighborhood streets, in playgrounds, and swimming pools, on the worksite, and in their own homes by injuries that could have been prevented. During this observance of Child Health Day, let us devote special attention to preventing these unnecessary deaths. Let us look in our homes and in our communities at those causes of injury which we can control -- unsafe environments, unsafe products, unsafe behaviors - -and resolve to remove such hazards to protect our children. 6 NOW, THEREFORE, on behalf of the Orange County Board of Commissioners, I do hereby proclaim Monday, October 7, 1991, as Child Health Day in Orange County. IN WITNESS WHEREOF, this 17th day of September, 1991 VOTE: UNANIMOUS Commissioner Halkiotis asked that the Social Services Director give a report to the Board on what the County is doing to prevent child abuse. S. PROCLAMATION - HUNTING AND FISHING DAY IN ORANGE COUNTY Motion was made by Commissioner Gordon, seconded by Commissioner Halkiotis to approve and authorize the Chair to sign the proclamation as stated below which proclaims September 28, 1991 as Hunting and Fishing Day in North Carolina P R O C L A M A T I O N HUNTING AND FISHING DAY IN ORANGE COUNTY WHEREAS, since the turn of the century, hunters and anglers have been at the forefront of the conservation movement, providing the impetus and the financing for many of the wildlife conservation programs existing today, and WHEREAS, as individuals, and through their organizations, sportsmen and women volunteer countless hours of their time for conservation projects and to educate others about the wise management of our natural resources, and WHEREAS, to date, sportsmen and women have provided more than $12 billion nationally for conservation programs that benefit all species of fish and wildlife, chipmunks and song birds as well as deer and elk, and THEREFORE, BE IT RESOLVED that the Orange County Board of Commissioners does hereby proclaim September 28, 1991 as Hunting and Fishing Day in Orange County to recognize the many contributions local sportsmen and women have made to conservation, and BE IT FURTHER RESOLVED that the Orange County Board of Commissioners urge all citizens to join and support our sportsmen and women in their efforts to ensure the wise use and proper management of our natural resources to benefit future generations.

After an extended discussion, motion was made by Commissioner Gordon to approve Orange County's participation in the study by providing $6,025 if all the $30,000 is used for laying out a framework for planning and constructing new bicycle corridors as specified in the scope of the plan. (This motion died for lack of a second). Commissioner Insko asked that this information be forwarded to the Transportation Advisory Committee without the obligation of funds. She asked that the plan be revised to focus on development of a bikeway plan.

It is the process in which the individual is linked to an array of services appropriate to the assessed needs and based on a plan of care specific to the individual. Long Term Care Management provides ongoing support and follow -up to assure an awareness of changes in status for a prolong period, provide smooth coordination of services and avoid unnecessary duplication. Care Management differs from case management in that is comprehensive and long term. Whereas, case management is service or agency specific. -- In order to more effectively coordinate client services and ensure continued appropriateness of services, the following inter - agency care management procedures are instituted: 1. Update the referral source - DOA Care Management Team periodically on the situation of the requested service from DOA. 2. Do not refer to another service area within the Provider agency without conferring with the referral,source - DOA Care Management Team. 3. Notify the DOA Care Management Team promptly when a specific Provider service is terminated, giving the date, if possible. 4. The DOA Care Management Team should always be notified when there is a problem or change in providing the agency service to the client: whether on the part of the agency or the client. 5. Purchased services should never be terminated or altered without appropriate discussion with the DOA Care Manage- ment Team.

BACKGROUND: Under the new National Affordable Housing Act of 1990, the U.S. Department of Housing and Urban Development requires local jurisdictions to prepare a Comprehensive Housing Affordability Strategy (CHAS). This document assesses housing needs in a jurisdiction and outlines future plans /strategies to address these identified needs. A draft Comprehensive Housing Affordability Strategy is being developed for all jurisdictions in Orange County. All jurisdictions covered under the CHAS are required to hold a public hearing to receive comments regarding this document. The Towns of Chapel Hill, Carrboro and Hillsborough have scheduled hearings to occur around the first week in October. Therefore, staff is recommending that the BOCC conduct a public hearing on this matter at its regularly scheduled meeting, October 7, 1991 in order to fulfill our citizen participation requirement. A standard notice will be published in local newspapers as required. RECOMMENDATION(S): The Manager recommends: Establishing October 7, 1991 as a public hearing date to receive citizen comments regarding the Consolidated Comprehensive Housing Affordability Strategy for Orange County. w ORANGE COUNTY BOARD OF COMMISSIONERS ACTION AGENDA ITEM ABSTRACT Meeting Date: September 17, 1991 SUBJECT: Proclamation - Child Health Day - October 7, 1991 DEPARTMENTS HEALTH ATTACHMENT(S): Draft Proclamation and History of Child Health Day 1 Action Agenda Item No. X.Y---A PUBLIC HEARING: Yes X No INFORMATION CONTACT: HEALTH DIRECTOR'S OFFICE X2412 TELEPHONE NUMBER: Hillsborough - 732 -8181 Chapel Hill - 968 -4501 Mebane -- 227 -2031 Durham - 688 -7331 PURPOSE: To proclaim October 7, 1991, as Child Health Day in Orange County. BACKGROUND: Each year the celebration of Child Health Day focuses National attention on an important issue effecting the well -being of our children. This year's theme, Understanding and Preventing Childhood Injuries, allows for mobilization of our community around simple and effective interventions to decrease intentional and unintentional injuries to children. The attached proclamation is intended to focus the attention of Orange County residents on this important subject. In addition, a feature newspaper article covering the two child injury prevention grants received by the Orange County Health Department will be organized. One project, "Buckle Up Baby," allows for the distribution of toddler safety seats. The other grant, "Project Poison Patrol," provides information to the community on the prevention of accidental poisoning and the distribution of poison control kits through the Health Department and selected daycare centers. Further, public service announcements on local radio stations and the cable television station will be used to heighten public awareness about this year's theme. RECOMMENDATION(S):. The Manager recommends that the Commissioners proclaim October 7, 1991, as Child Health Day in Orange County. 4 •, CHILD HEALTH DAY 2 OCTOBER 7, 1991 BY THE CHAIR OF THE ORANGE COUNTY BOARD OF COMMISSIONERS A PROCLAMATION On Child Health Day we reaffirm our resolve that all of America's children should be assured the best possible start in life and should be protected from hazards and risks that might threaten their life and their health. Providing a safe, secure and nurturing environment for our children is of paramount importance to us as parents and families. It must also become an imperative to which we devote the intelligence and the resources of our communities and our Nation. It is tragic that thousands of our children are dying and thousands more of them are permanently disabled because of injuries, both unintentional and intentional. In 1988, there were 22,426 deaths of children through age 19 caused by injuries. Injuries account for more deaths of children after the first year of life than all other causes combined. Many of these injuries are predictable and preventable. Research into the cause of many of these injuries has resulted in product improvements to reduce hazards, such as safety packaging for medicines and toxic chemicals. Public awareness of some of the safety issues has resulted in legislative changes to reduce hazards, such as statutes throughout the Nation requiring child passenger safety restraints. Local initiatives for requiring bicycle helmets, for fencing around swimming pools, and for playground equipment standards are making significant contributions toward injury reduction when they are adopted. Public education campaigns against drunk driving, vigorous enforcement against child abuse, and training for both children and parents to help them handle anger and reduce violence all make important contributions. We have acquired a wealth of knowledge about effective interventions that can prevent and reduce the incidence of childhood injury. Yet we continue to record the toll of children killed on the highway, on neighborhood streets, in playgrounds, and swimming pools, on the worksite,. and in their own homes by injuries that could have been prevented. During this observance of Child Health Day, let us devote special Attention to preventing these unnecessary deaths. Let us look in our homes and in our communities at those causes of injury which we can control -- unsafe environments, unsafe products, unsafe behaviors- -and resolve to remove such hazards to protect our children. NOW, THEREFORE, on behalf of the Orange County Board of Commissioners, I do hereby proclaim Monday, October 7, 1991, as Child Health Day in Orange County. IN WITNESS WHEREOF, this 17th day of September, 1991. Moses Carey, Jr., Chair ATTEST: Clerk HISTORY OF CHILD HEALTH DAY Under a Joint Resolution of the Congress, Child Health Day has been Proclaimed by the President of the United States ever since 1928. It was originally celebrated on May Day, May first, each year until 1960, when the date was moved to the first Monday in October. Calvin Coolidge, the first President to issue a Child Health Day proclamation, acted in response to pleas from the American Federation of Labor and the General Federation of Women's Clubs on April 26th to Proclaim the day while the resolution was still pending in Congress. Although the Senate had passed the resolution unanimously, House action had not yet been completed and the measure had no chance of passage before May first. In those days the bureaucracy moved swiftly. On April 27, the White House referred the requests from AFL President William Green and Mrs. Walter McNab Miller, Chairman of the Department of Public Welfare of the General Federation of Women's Clubs, to the Secretary of the Treasury for his recommendations. His response was immediate: "The promotion of child health is a highly commendable object. The issuance of a proclamation designating a `Child Health Day' would undoubtedly have influence in focusing public attention on this matter. Unless consideration of public policy would render it inadvisable to anticipate action in a matter which Congress is now considering, I would be inclined to recommend compliance with the request contained in the communications mentioned." On April 28, President Coolidge issued the following proclamation "WHEREAS the protection and development of the health of the children of today are fundamental necessities to the future Progress and welfare of the Nation; "AND WHEREAS, the conservation and promotion of child health places upon us a grave responsibility, "AND WHEREAS, it is appropriate that a day should be set apart each year for the direction of our thoughts towards the health and well being of our children; "NOW, therefore, I, Calvin Coolidge, President of the United States of America, do hereby set apart May 1, of this year, as Child Health Day and do invite the people of the United States and all agencies and organizations interested in child welfare to unite upon that day in the observance of such exercises as will acquaint the people of the Nation with the fundamental necessity of a year -round program for the protection and development of the health of the Nation's children. "IN TESTIMONY WHEREOF, I have hereunto set my hand and caused the Seal of the United States to be affixed" i- 4 Congress completed its deliberations soon thereafter and on May 18, 1928, approved its Joint Resolution which read as follows: "Resolved by the Senate and House of Representatives of the United States of America in Congress assembled, That the President of the United States is hereby authorized and requested to issue annually a proclamation setting apart May 1 of each year as Child Health Day and inviting all agencies and organizations interested in child welfare to unite upon that day in the observance of such exercises as will awaken the people of the Nation to the fundamental necessity of a year -round program for the protection and development of the health of the Nation's children." Many organizations interested in child welfare had prevailed upon the Congress to enact the resolution. Among them were the American Child Health Association and the National Education Association. Many States had been proclaiming Child Health Day for five years or more. Advocates for Child Health Day submitted to the President proclamations or statements of support from the governors of 29 States and Mayor Jimmy Walker of the City of New York as evidence of the "practically unanimous" public sentiment "in support of this most commendable project." The States included: Arkansas, California, Colorado, Connecticut, Georgia, Illinois, Indiana, Louisiana Maine, Maryland, Michigan, Minnesota, Missouri, Montana, New Hampshire, New Jersey, New Mexico, North Carolina, North Dakota, Ohio, Oregon, Pennsylvania, Rhode Island, South Dakota, Texas, Virginia West Virginia, Wisconsin, and Wyoming. Mrs. Miller told the President... "the women of the country are hoping to use the day to raise funds in two states where the governors have vetoed the appropriations for child hygiene in the state boards of health." In gratitude, after the President had acted, she wrote: "Your Proclamation will mean a great deal to the whole country, and especially to the organizations who are trying to center attention upon the child as America's greatest asset." For many years, Child Health Day consisted of little more than a Presidential Proclamation. In 1982, the National Institute of Child Health and Human Development ( NICHD) held the first of what has become an annual event -- a national symposium to mark the day. The first symposium had as its theme adolescent risk taking behavior, subsequent themes ranged from the molecular genetics of Down syndrome, to the history of neonatal intensive care, to the effects of day care on child development. In 1989, a coalition of Federal and private agencies joined the NICHD in expanding the scope of Child Health Day. The coalition sponsors not only the national symposium in Washington, D.C. but encourages consumer, education and advocacy groups across the country to conduct Child Health Day projects and activities on the same topic. Child Health Day themes under the expanded format have, to date, included access to prenatal care and adolescent health. Preventing childhood injuries is the theme selected for this 10th national symposium and the 1991 celebration. w� 1 ORANGE COUNTY BOARD OF COMMISSIONERS Action Agenda � V -� ACTION AGENDA ITEM ABSTRACT Item No. Meeting Date: September 17, 1991 SUBJECT: PROCLAMATION - HUNTING AND FISHING DAY IN ORANGE COUNTY DEPARTMENT: County Commissioners ATTACHMENT(S): Yes - Proclamation PUBLIC HEARING YES: NO: X INFORMATION CONTACT: Moses Carey,Jr. TELEPHONE NUMBER Hillsborough - 732 -8181 Chapel Hill - 968 -5401 Durham - 688 -7331 Mebane - 227 -2031 ..

BACKGROUND: At the August 20, 1991 regular meeting, the Board of Commissioners received a status report on local legislation addressed in the 1991 Session of the North Carolina General Assembly. Authority has been granted to the Orange County Commissioners in Senate Bill 623 to adopt ordinances regulating hunting and fishing and promoting human rights. At the August 20 meeting, the Board directed the Manager and Attorney to develop plans for adopting appropriate ordinances for these activities. By early October, the Manager and Attorney will meet with the Sheriff, the Orange County Forest Service Ranger, and two representatives of the hunting community in Orange County to discuss how to best implement a County hunting ordinance, including education of the public. We will receive feedback from these parties on the proposed hunting ordinance, and develop and present an implementation plan to the Board for the October 22 regular meeting. During the next month, the Orange County Human Relations Commission will be asked to review their proposed ordinance and to make appro- priate amendments that will conform to the provisions as authorized by Senate Bill 623. Upon review by the County Attorney and County Manager, the amended ordinance will be presented to the Board of Commissioners for review in November. At the same meeting, a recommended implementation plan and timetable for adopting the ordinance will be presented. Steps will include a format for the public hearing that may include other municipalities; and County staff will work with representatives of the Human Relations Commission and the towns to develop an implementation plan. With July 1, 1992, as the proposed effective date of the ordinance, resources necessary to implement a human rights ordinance would be determined as part of the 1992 -93 budget process and presented to the Board of Commissioners during budget deliberations.

BACKGROUND: A Regional Bicycle Plan has been proposed by the Durham - Chapel Hill - Carrboro (DCHC) Urban Area Transportation Advisory Committee (TAC). The plan would focus on increasing public education and awareness of bicycling, developing appropriate enforcement guidelines, and establishing a framework for planning and constructing new bicycle corridors. A consultant would be employed to conduct the study at an estimated cost of $30,000. As originally proposed, participants in the study would be the municipalities of Durham, Chapel Hill, and Carrboro and the counties of Durham and Orange. Carrboro withdrew its support in February. Funding would be based on a formula of 50% equal share and 50% proportional to population as follows: Chapel Hill $ 6,187 Durham 11,375 Durham County 6,413 Orange County 6,025 $30,000 Chapel Hill and Durham budgeted funds for the study; Orange and Durham Counties did not. Durham County Commissioners received a request for funding at 2 • S their meeting on September 9. They are scheduled to make a decision at their September 23 meeting. Should Orange County choose to participate, funding would have to come from contingency funds. RECOMMENDATION: The Administration recommends that the Board receive the report, for information only, and make a decision at a future meeting on whether to participate in the regional bicycle plan. 3 ORANGE COUNTY PLANNING DEPARTMENT 306F REVERE ROAD HILLSBOROUGH, NORTH CAROLINA 27278 a' „ lI_ M E M O R A N D U M TO: Orange County Commissioners FROM: Gene Bell, Planner III (x-43 RE: REPORT ON REGIONAL BICYCLE PLAN DATE: September 11, 1991 A Regional Bicycle Plan has been proposed by the Durham - Chapel Hill - Carrboro (DCHC) Urban Area Transportation Advisory Committee (TAC). The plan would cover Durham and Orange County and would focus on increasing public education and awareness of bicycling, developing appropriate enforcement guidelines, and establishing a framework for planning and constructing new bicycle corridors. A consultant would be employed to conduct the study at an estimated cost of $30,000. Participating local governments would be the municipalities of Durham and Chapel Hill and the counties of Durham and Orange. Orange County's funding share, if it elects to participate, would be $5,025. Following are brief sections on background, project scope, expected benefits, costs, and the actions of other local governments to -date. Attachments pertinent to the project are also included. Background In its deliberations on the proposed DCHC Thoroughfare Plan several years ago, the TAC identified the need for regional coordination on bicycle planning as a necessary adjunct to the coordination on thoroughfare planning already in progress. The TAC discussed this with representatives from the N.C. Department of Transportation (DOT) Bicycle Program. A problem arose in that DOT bicycle funds are very limited and cannot be used for planning purposes. This prompted the TAC to ask what could be done locally besides continuing to request funding for identified bicycle projects in the annual TIP process. The TAC recommended a program of public education and awareness of bicycling, enforcement, and bicycle route planning to develop a regional system as its preferred course of action. il Scope of Plan n Under the TAC's direction, a request - for - proposals (RFP) was drafted.. It identifies three basic areas on which the plan will focus: 1) Increasing public education and awareness of bicycling involves identifying outstanding bicycle education materials for children and adults as well as identifying and organizing community agencies and resources that could help implement this aspect of the plan. This item would comprise approximately 45% of the consultant's work. 2) Developing appropriate enforcement guidelines to increase the safety and responsibility of cyclists involves identifying exemplary enforcement programs and, as in item 1, identifying and organizing community agencies and resources that can implement the program. This item would comprise approximately 30$ of the consultant's work. 3) Laying out a framework for planning and constructing new bicycle corridors includes coordination of existing municipal /county bike plans with new segments that would be needed to complete a regional system. This item would comprise approximately 25% of the consultant's work. Benefits Benefits expected to accrue from the regional plan once implemented include, but are not limited to: 1) Safer and more desirable environment for cycling as a result of increased emphasis on education and enforcement programs. 2) DCHC local governments will be in a better position to request and receive funds from the State in that their requests are tied to an adopted regional plan. 4) Reduction in traffic congestion and air pollution. 4) Increased health and fitness of populace as more people engage in cycling for recreation as well as an alternative to the private automobile. . Fundina The estimated cost of employing a consultant to prepare the plan is $30,000. As originally proposed, participants in 2 the study would be the municipalities of Durham, Chapel Hill, and Carrboro and the counties of Durham and Orange. Funding would be based on a formula of 50% equal share and 50% proportional to population. With five local governments participating in the plan, Orange County's share would be $5,167.50. Carrboro elected to withdraw from the plan last February requiring that funding be recomputed. Each local government's share is now: Chapel Hill $ 6,187 Durham 11,375 Durham County 6,413 Orange County 6,025 $30,000 Local Government Actions to Date The municipalities of Durham and Chapel Hill included funds for the proposed plan in their adopted budgets for Fiscal Year 1991 -92. The Durham County Commissioners received a report on the plan at their meeting on September 9, 1991 requesting funding from contingencies. They instructed the administration to see if a funding source could be determined that did not result in double taxation for city residents since the City of Durham is a participant in the project. The administration is to report back to the Durham County Commissioners on September 23 concerning funding sources not derived from local tax revenues. cc: John Link, County Manager Marvin Collins, Planning Director DK9:BIKERPRT.DOC 3 5 N DOCUMENTATION PERTINENT TO REGIONAL BICYCLE PLAN 1) 7 -18 -91 Memo from David Bonk to TAC 2) 3 -13 -91 Memo from Gene Bell to Dr. Alice Gordon 3) 11- 2.1 -90 Meeting Minutes of TAC 4) Request for Proposals --Regional Bicycle plan I MEMORANDUM To: Transportation Advisory Committee From: David Bonk, Senior Transportation Planner Re: Status of the Regional Bicycle Plari Date: July 18, 1991 This memorandum serves to update you on the status of the proposed Durham - Chapel Hill - Carrboro Urban Area Regional Bicycle Plan. During the Fall of 1990, the' TAC requested the Technical Coordinating Committee (TCC) to prepare a request- for - proposals (RFP) for the development of a Regional Bicycle Plan. The focus of the plan would be to increase public education and awareness of bicycling, develop appropriate enforcement guidelines, and to establish a framework for planning and constructing new bicycle corridors. The project would be administered by the Town of Chapel Hill, and would be reviewed by a bicycle task force of staff and citizens from each jurisdiction. Funding for the plan would be split proportionately among each participating jurisdiction. Subsequent to the initial draft of the RFP Carrboro withdrew funding support for the development of the regional bicycle plan. Despite this however, the TAC remained committed to developing the plan. The TAC directed the TCC to recalculate the proportional funding requirement for each jurisdiction and continue the process toward selecting a consultant. The table below summarizes the approximate funding distribution, based on a combination equal share and population proportion for each jurisdiction: Population 50% Equal Share Equal Share Proportion 501 Proportional Carrboro - 0% $0 0% $0 0% $0 Chapel Hill - 25% $7,500 16% $4,875 21% $6,187 Durham - 25% $7,500 51% $15,249 38% $11,375 Durham County --'25% $7,500 18% $5,325 21% $6,413 Orange County- 25% $7,500 151 $4,551 20% 6,_025 $30,000 $30,000 $30,000 On June 13, 1991,1the Bicycle Task Force began interviewing prospective firms as consultants for developing the Regional Bicycle..Plan. AS of today, only the Town of Chapel Hill and the City of Durham have included a provision for funding in their annual budgets. Orange County and Durham County did not specifically include the plan.. in . this- years_. budget request. VA The cost of this type of project does not necessarily decrease in the same proportion as project area covered. We could expect that the overall cost of producing a regional or multi- jurisdictional plan would remain relatively constant whether there are five or two municipalities. The type of product we are striving for would generally be applicable to all jurisdictions in the region. The first option would assume the existing funding committments from Chapel Hill and Durham, and no funding committment from the remaining jurisdictions. In this case, the scope of work would need to be dramatically changed. However, this may raise the question of whether the combined Chapel Hill- Durham share ($17,500) would be enough funds to make the effort worth while. The existing scope of work could probably not be fulfilled with the current funding committments, and a reduced scope of work may be affordable, but may not yeild a' satisfactory or comprehensive product. A second option would require increasing funding from both Chapel Hill and Durham. This option may allow for only small changes in the scope of work and still produce a comprehensive product. A third option would be to not pursue the effort of developing a regional bike plan at this time. Opportunities may prove to be more favorable in the future. i 8� ORANGE COUNTY PLANNING DEPARTMENT 306F REVERE ROAD HILLSBOROUGH, NORTH CAROLINA 27278 d ............ M E M O R A N D U M TO: Dr. Alice Gordon, County Commissioner FROM: Gene Bell, Planner III Cr Q . RE: Regional Bicycle plan DATE: March 13, 1991 The purpose of this memo is to provide further clarification on the Regional Bicycle Plan proposal being considered by the Transportation Advisory Committee (TAC) of the Durham - Chapel Hill - Carrboro (DCHC) metropolitan planning organization. As you may recall from the TAC meeting on February 20, I raised some questions as to the geographic coverage of the plan. There was initially some question as to whether it would cover all of Orange County or only the DCHC portion. Mark Ahrendsen, Transportation Systems Engineer for the City of Durham, has since indicated that - coverage would be county -wide. The plan would be prepared by a consultant at an estimated cost of $30,000. A Request for Proposals (RFP) has been developed soliciting consultant services (attached). A proposed funding arrangement was voted on by the TAC on November 21, 1990 (Orange County's share would be $5,167.50). Moses Carey, Orange County's delegate to the TAC at that time, seconded the funding proposal, and it was passed unanimously (minutes attached). I have tentatively requested that Orange County's share of the project be included in the Planning Department 1991 -92 budget. In consideration of this request, there are several points I wish to reiterate. First, the Town of Carrboro announced on February 20 that it would not be participating financially in the plan, thus, potentially increasing the amount Orange County might be asked to contribute. Second, the major focus of the'plan (approximately 80 %) will be on education and enforcement as opposed to developing a system of bikeways. Finally, the portion of the plan dealing with bikeways will focus mainly on existing bicycle route plans and promoting regional connectivity among them. There will be some limited focus on defining bikeways for areas that E 10, don't currently have them. While the plan as proposed would offer benefits to Orange County, I want to be sure we are getting the most for our consultant dollar and that our most pressing needs in terms of bicycle planning are being met. I realize you are probably aware of everything I have covered in this memo. However, as the new Orange County delegate to the TAC, I wanted to be sure that you had the benefit of everything I currently know about the project. cc: Moses Carey, BOCC Chair ,john Link, County Manager Marvin Collins, Planning Director Chris Best, TAS Chair DK9:AGBIRB.DOC _ f r — TRANSPORTATION ADVISORY COMMITTEE November 21, 1990 MINUTBS OF MEETING The Transportation Advisory Committee met on November 21, 1990 at 9:00 a.m. in the Committee Room on the second floor of Durham City Hall.

Sarah Burdick discussed the Town of Carrboro's bicycle plans from a map she presented. Carrboro also has unofficial bike paths which are heavily used. David Bonk discussed the .Town of Chapel Hill's bikeway concept plans. The Chapel Hill bike plan is predicated on the assumption that community needs are accommodated. The plan also focuses on creating a system that will encourage commuters to use bicycles for work trips. Vonda Frantz discussed Durham County's bicycle plans from a map and handout which she presented. She indicated that a comprehensive program is needed for the bicycle plan consisting of enforcement and education planning. Mark Ahrendsen discussed the TCC's revised recommendations for the bicycle plan. The recommendation of the TAC on September 12, 1990 was to request a proposal for the `bicycle plan and for each jurisdiction to share the cost of $30,000 - $35,000 equally. This amount was based on a preliminary proposal submitted by the Pro Bike Group. At the TAC meeting in October concerns were expressed about the selection of the consultant, funding distribution, the timing schedule of the study, and the contractual agreement. The TCC reviewed those concerns and recommended that the TAC endorse the RFP submitted by Pro Bike and select a funding distribution formula. After consulting with the NCDOT bicycle staff and attending a bicycle workshop held in Raleigh, the TCC felt that Pro Bike Group had the expertise to do the study and should therefore be selected as the consultant. Upon selecting and endorsing a distribution• formula, each jurisdiction will be responsible for budgeting their share of the costs in their respective local budgets for fiscal year 1991 -92. Once local budgets are approved by June 30, 1991, interlocal agreements between the City of Durham and each of the four other jurisdictions must be completed. Subsequently, the City of Durham will execute an agreement with the Pro Bike to begin the study. Mark Ahrendsen presented three funding distribution formulas. The options on funding distribution offered were: equally sharing the study costs among the five jurisdictions (20% each); distributing the costs by jurisdictional - population; or a split arrangement by which SO of the costs are split equally and 50% are split according to population. (A copy of the alternative funding distribution formulas is attached). , Sandy Ogburn raised a question on NCDOT's role in bicycle planning. J r TAC MINUTES Page 3 Vonda Frantz stated that the State bicycle program is concentrating on regional projects, street facilities, education and enforcement.: Mark Ahrendsen commented that the funding distribution for the bicycle project is estimated to be $30,000. Becky Heron asked how the combined equal share and population weighted funding shares will be determined? Mark stated that $15,000 will be split 5 ways and the remaining $15,000 will be split based on population. Wesley Parham commented that under all three arrangements the City of Durham would bear costs beyond those directly related to the consultant costs. The additional costs would be due to the administrative role which City staff will incur by developing and executing the required inter - -local agreements, administering the consulting contract, and serving as the responsible lead agency in overseeing plan development. The overhead costs were not indicated in the funding scenarios presented. Upon discussion by. TAC members on how to split the funding arrangement equitably, Jonathan Howes suggested the combined equal share /population arrangement with the Town of Chapel Hill covering the administrative costs of the process by serving as the lead contracting agency. Nancy Rand made a motion to adopt the combined equal share/ population distribution formula with the Town of Chapel Hill as the lead contracting agency. Moses Carey seconded the motion. The vote passed unanimously. RESEARCH TRIANGLE REGIONAL TRANSIT LAND -USE STUDY & ACTION AGENDA: David Bonk commented that the Action Agenda adopted.by the joint TAC included a provision that-the Durham - Chapel Hill - Carrboro and the Greater Raleigh TAC's review and endorse the findings. and recommendations of the Land -use subcommittee's report by January 1, 1991. The Land -use Subcommittee found that there- was a strong relationship between land --use patterns and the potential for development of a fixed guideway and public transit system in general., The land -use patterns that have characterized development in this region over the last 20 years have reduced potential for fixed guideway transit. Fixed guideway systems appear to have the ability to attract development and to focus land -use patterns in a way -that other transportation facilities do not. Based on the analysis of the four corridors included in the report, the subcommittee determined that the development activity necessary 13 th � U O co rl -rl � � I W � I C4 I m 0 U Q' li N 9, ?, O O 41 4 U 9 >~ >~ +� •�j N -P O O Id 0 u u u a f•i G N O P4k 9� .��p0 a ODUO❑ � I � � I O •,-1 O I +- W 4-) 1 :5 9 1 .Q O 1 •rq U 1 34 3a 1 � N I N G4 I O •� I 4s I � N I G4 0 II sw II td O II a ro ii .c u � � u � u U R u m � w >~ u O II U II O II G►, II 00000 to 0 In U7 Ln I vNOtn1D I %DNo1Den I NC1nr-1U9 I OUiMLoU) I r-I VI -ViV -P VP I V} aP cw CAP aP OP 1 Nd'nC)%D 1 NnC1Nd' I .

BACKGROUND: OWASA has requested comments at our earliest convenience on Hillsborough's request for use of 16" water line. RECOMMENDATION(S): Ask the County Administration to look into the matter and report to the Board at an upcoming meeting. 2 Orange Water and Sewer Authority 400 Jones Ferry Road OWASA P.O. Box 366 Carrboro, NC 27510 (919) 968 -4421 MEMORANDUM TO: Chairman Moses Carey Mayor Jonathan Howes Mayor Eleanor Kinnaird FROM: Lois Herring DATE: August 30, 1991 SEA' 31991 SUBJECT: Hillsborough Request for Use of 16 -inch Water Line In accordance with our Memorandum of Understanding, I am informing you of a proposal tendered by the Town of Hillsborough to purchase or Lease the portion of the OWASA 16 -inch water transmission line that is along the Old NC 86 Road and north of Davis Road. Mayor Horace Johnson made the request to the OWASA Board at its August 29, 1991 meeting, but did not present specifics of the proposal. The line has not been up for sale or lease, and the OWASA Board solicits your comments as it deliberates if it should entertain this proposal from Hillsborough. In the past the line has been essential to transport to OWASA water treated by Hillsborough that had been released into the Eno River from the County owned Lake Orange. It is presently being used to transport 450,000 gallons of water a day from OWASA to Hillsborough to supphement the Town's deficient supply. Mayor Johnson indicated that the Town would benefit tremendously from the line to augment its inadequate line along Old 86 south of town and it would allow pipe capacity to support substantial development contemplated in the Old 86/1 -40 area. He also stated that Hillsborough is proceeding with the interconnecting line with Durham and in the future would purchase all of its supplementary water needs from Durham. Apparently the plans for construction of a reservoir by the Town of Hillsborough is still under deliberation. The OWASA Board of Directors will be having some internal discussions at its September 11 meeting. Your comments at the earliest convenience are welcomed. Lois T.

Gledhill, County Attorney 732 -2196 Telephone Number - Hillsborough - 732 -8181 Chapel Hill -967 -8251 Mebane - 227 -2031 Durham - 688 -7331 PURPOSE: To consider a lease agreement with the Orange County Board of Commissioners for the Efland- Cheeks Community Center and Neighborhood Park. BACKGROUND: On November 5, 1990 the Orange County Board of Education approved a 50 -year lease of approximately 5.43 acres of land owned by the Board of Education, part of its Efland Cheeks Elementary School property. Since that time development of the Efland- Cheeks Community Center and Neighborhood Park has progressed to the point where the plans for the center development have been approved by Orange County and the Orange County Board of Education. Construction of the project has been bid and the report of the bids will take place at this meeting. At this writing, subdivision approval and site plan approval by the Orange County Planning Department are in process. It is anticipated that all necessary approvals will have been obtained on or before the Board's next meeting (October 7, 1991). The County Attorney has prepared a lease for the property to be leased from the Orange County Board of Education and has shared the lease agreement with the attorney for the Orange County Board of Education.

WITNESS: ENO RIVER DEVELOPMENT COMPANY LESSEE COUNTY OF ORANGE BEVERLY A. BLYTHF� CLERK MOSES CAREY.� JR.1 CHAIR b A O R A N G E C O U N T Y BOARD OF COMMISSIONERS ACTION AGENDA ITEM ABSTRACT Meeting Date: September 17, 1991 Action A ends Item # ^D SUBJECT: Equal Employment Opportunity /Affirmative Action Policy Revisions to the Orange County Personnel Ordinance DEPARTMENT: Personnel PUBLIC HEARING: Yes X No ATTACHMENTS: INFORMATION CONTACT: 1 - Draft revised Article II, Elaine Holmes, Personnel Director Sections 1.0, 3.1 and 3.2 TELEPHONE NUMBERS: 2 - Current Article II, Hillsborough - 732 -8181 .Sections 1.0, 3.1 and 3.2 Durham - 688 -7331 Mebane - 227 -2031 Chapel Hill - 967- 9251/968 -4501 PURPOSE: To consider revisions to the Equal Employment Opportunity /Affirmative Action section of the Orange County Personnel Ordinance. BACKGROUND: The draft revised Equal Employment Opportunity/ Affirmative Action section of the Personnel Ordinance is provided as Attachment 1. Shown on Attachment 1 in the left hand column (in boldface and parentheses) is a cross reference to the affected provision in the current Personnel Ordinance. Attachment 2 is the current Equal Employment Opportunity /Affirmative Action section of the Personnel Ordinance. The revised Equal Employment Opportunity policy reflects necessary updating and includes three additions to the non - discrimination provision. The additions are sexual orientation, political affiliation and Vietnam -Era or disabled veteran status. The basis for these is as follows: SEXUAL ORIENTATION The prohibition against discrimination in employment on the basis of sexual orientation bars discrimination against gay men, lesbian women, bisexual men and women or heterosexual men and women. This revision is presented in follow up to the 1 z recommendation of the Orange County. Human Relations Commission. There is no provision in Federal or State law as to discrimination based on sexual orientation. _ The Human Relations Commission had proposed the use of the term "affectional preference." The term "sexual orientation" has been recommended in lieu of affectional preference because it is more specific, it is the commonly used term in the literature and a survey of employment policies of area governmental employers indicates it is a commonly used term in this area. Area employers using this term in employment policies include The University of North Carolina at Chapel Hill, Town of Carrboro, City of Raleigh and City of Durham. POLITICAL AFFILIATION The addition of political affiliation to the Equal Employment Opportunity section of the Personnel Ordinance addresses an issue identified by the Office of State Personnel. In its review of the County's request for the "substantial equivalency" exemption in the Equal Employment Opportunity/ Affirmative Action section, State Personnel advises that to qualify for substantial equivalency the County, among other things, must include political affiliation as one of the areas in which the County pledges not to discriminate in employment. VETERAN STATUS The purpose of adding veteran status to the policy is to assure compliance with Section 402 of the Vietnam Era Veterans Readjustment Assistance Act of 1974. This Act prohibits discrimination in employment against qualified disabled veterans and veterans of the Vietnam Era by.covered employers. In addition to the above changes, new section 1.4 has been added which protects employees and applicants from retaliation for raising a charge or participating in an investigation of employment discrimination. This is in conformance with Title VII of the Civil Rights Act. RECOMMENDATION: The Manager recommends the Board adopt the proposed revisions to the Equal Employment Opportunity /Affirmative Action Policy section of the Orange County Personnel Ordinance effective October 1, 1991. Attachment 1 ARTICLE II RECRUITMENT AND EMPLOYMENT 1.0 EQUAL EMPLOYMENT OPPORTUNITY/AFFIRMATIVE ACTION POLICY* 1.1 Equal Employment Opportunity Policy 1.1.1 The policy of Orange County is to foster, maintain and promote equal employment (OLD 1.1 opportunity.

I ORANGE COUNTY BOARD OF COMMISSIONERS Action Agenda Item No.2= IF ACTION AGENDA ITEM ABSTRACT Meeting Date: September 17,1991 SUBJECT: 911 CONSOLES; REJECTION OF BIDS DEPARTMENT: PURCHASING & CENTRAL SRVS. PUBLIC HEARING YES: NO:XX ATTACHMENT(S): INFORMATION CONTACT: PAM JONES EXT 2650 Telephone Number - Hillsborough - 732 -8181 Chapel Hill - 967 -9251 Mebane -227 -2031 Durham -688 -7331 PURPOSE: To consider rejecting bids for 911 consoles. oACKGROUND: Following investigation of the low bidder E911 consoles we ffer the following conclusions: 1. There -is reasonable doubt that the instant recall recorder bid by Motorola will function according to the intent of the specification. The intent of the specification was to allow voices from the telephone and radio to be recorded and heard separately. The intent of the specification was that either a single recorder, capable of recording two channels and playing them back separately or more than one recorder recording each voice could be utilitized to accomplish this function. The instant recorder function is important to provide the ability to immediately verify information that comes from radio transmission or the telephone. For example, it could be a life- -saver in the event an officer was down and needed assistance but could not clearly express the message. If the dispatcher had the ability to play back the message immediately and perhaps clarify the message the resolution of the situation may be significantly different. Motorola has provided us with a reference of one County in which the recorder they have bid is being utilized in a similar nature to that which we propose. However, there is still reasonable doubt that the "voice over" recording, which must ultimately occur when two voices are being recorded on one channel, will not perform as we require. In addition, the recorder being proposed by Motorola will not meet accreditation criteria if one of the law enforcement agencies currently Dispatched by the 911 Center opts to achieve accreditation status. PA Note: The City of Durham has recently added recorders to pick up their radio transmisison to meet this accreditation criteria. 2. It is obvious by the comments made by Communications Specialists in their August 27, 1991 letter that there is some confusion surrounding what bidders were told during their site visit to the 911 Center. Whether in fact bidders were provided different information has not been substantiated, however if reasonable doubt exists it is prudent of us to exercise our right to reject any and all bids. Based on the preceding information; the recommendation is made that the County reject all bids and resolicit bids with the named issues being clarified. If the Board accepts this recommendation, the time table in which to rebid will be as follows: Sept 17, 1991; Board rejects bids. Sept 20, 1991; Re -bid is advertised and bids are available to bidders. Sept 25, 1991; Pre -bid conference is held to clarify any outstanding issues; Oct 3, 1991; Bids are received. Oct 11, 1991; Evaluation of bids is completed. • Oct 22, 1991; Bids are recommended for award. RECOMMENDATION: The Manager recommends that the County exercise its right to reject any and all bids.

CHILD HEALTH DAY OCTOBER 7, 1991 BY THE CHAIR OF THE ORANGE COUNTY BOARD OF COMMISSIONERS A PROCLAMATION On Child Health Day we reaffirm our resolve that all of America's children should be assured the best possible start in life and should be protected from hazards and risks that might threaten their life and their health. Providing a safe, secure and nurturing environment for our children is of paramount importance to us as parents and families. It must also become an imperative to which we devote the intelligence and the resources of our communities and our Nation. It is tragic that thousands of our children are dying and thousands more of them are permanently disabled because of injuries, both unintentional and intentional. In 1988, there were 22,426 deaths of children through age 19 caused by injuries. Injuries account for more deaths of children after the first year of life than all other causes combined. Many of these injuries are predictable and preventable. Research into the cause of many of these injuries has resulted in product improvements to reduce hazards, such as safety packaging for medicines and toxic chemicals. Public awareness of some of the safety issues has resulted in legislative changes to reduce hazards, such as statutes throughout the Nation requiring child passenger safety restraints. Local initiatives for requiring bicycle helmets, for fencing around swimming pools, and for playground equipment standards are making significant contributions toward injury reduction when they are adopted. Public education campaigns against drunk driving, vigorous enforcement against child abuse, and training for both children and parents to help them handle anger and reduce violence all make important contributions. We have acquired a wealth of knowledge about effective interventions that can prevent and reduce the incidence of childhood injury. Yet we continue to record the toll of children killed on the highway, on neighborhood streets, in playgrounds, and swimming pools, on the worksite, and in their own homes by injuries that could have been prevented. During this observance of Child Health Day, let us devote special attention to preventing these unnecessary deaths. Let us look in our homes and in our communities at those causes of injury which we can control -- unsafe environments, unsafe products, unsafe behaviors ---and resolve to remove such hazards to protect our children. NOW, THEREFORE, on behalf of the Orange County Board of Commissioners, I do hereby proclaim Monday, October 7, 1991, as Child Health Day in Orange County. IN WITNESS WHEREOF, this 17th day of September, 1991. Moses Carey, Jr., Chair ORANGE COUNTY COMMISSIONERS P.O. Box 8181 HILLSBOROUGH, N.C. Moses Carey, Jr. 27278 Alice M. Cordon Stephen H.

Orange Street P.O. Box 429 HILLSBOROUGH, NORTH CAROLINA (919) 732 -2104 27278 September 17, 1991 TO: Orange County Board of Commissioners RE: Orange Water and Sewer Authority 16 Inch Water Line Why is there a water line from Hillsborough to OWASA? Before Cane Creek Reservoir, OWASA was in desperate need of additional water supplies Al serve its ever increasing customer base. This, of course, was recognized by Orange County, Chapel Hill and Carrboro. Therefore, a contract was written and OWASA, at the Authority's expense, constructed the water line and pump station, valves, etc., to purchase water from Hillsborough. Hillsborough had at the time enough water reserves to allow OWASA to purchase water, and also Hillsborough was not involved with the Eno Capacity Plan as structured by DEM Water Resources Division. I have a memo from me to my Board Members dated July 12, 1990, which covers most of OWASA's water purchses from Hillsborough. It clearly shows the prime reason this line was constructed. From 1986 to 1990, this line lay empty of any water due to Cane Creek coming on line and therefore OWASA had enough reserves to supply its customers without outside sources. Then in 1990 and again this year, Hillsborough needed to purchase water from OWASA. These purchases helped Hillsborough serve its cus- tomers. We are very pleased with this arrangement. Of course, the cost of water from OWASA is quite expensive. It is Hillsborough's desire to continue their relationship with OWASA that started over a decade ago. OWASA can rest assured that nothing would be installed in their small portion of line that would prevent the transmission of water from one to another. Hillsborough is now the one in need just as OWASA was back in 1978. Cane Creek Reservoir now serves OWASA customers and the need for outside water purchases are gone. Now this pipe serves only for truly emergency use and for economic gain by selling water to Hillsborough. Hillsborough's proposal would not jeopardize either of these and would provide an extra income, on an annual basis for ten years. I think i of a million might be nice to have around. I would urge this Board to approve of Hillsborough's proposal. Thank you. .s ~ 01 own of 34illsburuug4 HILLSBOROUGH, NORTH CAROLINA RE: Water Sales to OWASA DATE: July 12, 1990 101 E.
