Sewer Concept (May 2012)
PURPOSE: To consider approval of an Interlocal Agreement between Orange County, the
Town of Chapel Hill, and the Town of Carrboro to jointly fund the costs of private sewer service
lateral connection installations for qualified Low-to-Moderate-Income (LMI) homeowners in the
Historic Rogers Road sewer service area.
BACKGROUND: The newly constructed Historic Rogers Road Area gravity sewer system is a
public system owned by Orange County and operated by the Orange Water and Sewer
Authority (OWASA). The general contractor for the sewer expansion project has installed
approximately 108 sewer service stub-outs/clean-outs to lots within the Historic Rogers Road
sewer service area. The design and construction of the Historic Rogers Road Area gravity
sewer system was initiated based on the recommendations contained within the Historic Rogers
Road Neighborhood Task Force Final Report dated September 17, 2013. The 67-page Report
is available on-line at https://www.townofchapelhill.org/home/showdocument?id=25341. The
map at Attachment 3 is from the Report and formed the basis for the gravity sewer system
layout and design. The costs associated with the design and construction of the gravity sewer
system were shared between Orange County, the Town of Chapel Hill, and the Town of
Carrboro as specified in an Interlocal Agreement entered into on December 13, 2016
(Attachment 1).
Orange County, in partnership with the Towns of Chapel Hill and Carrboro, will be providing
joint funding to cover the costs of private sewer service lateral connection installations, septic
tank abandonments and payments of OWASA sewer system development fees for qualified
LMI homeowners of existing dwellings located on Heritage Lots within the Historic Rogers Road
sewer service area. There are 62 Heritage Lots on which existing dwellings are located, but the
exact number and locations of LMI qualifying households within those 62 existing dwellings is
unknown at this time. The public funding for installation of private sewer service lateral
connections for qualified LMI homeowners will be conducted over a three (3) year period.
2
Private sewer service lateral connection installation work will be triggered, and subsequently
scheduled, based on formal requests to Orange County by Heritage Lot homeowners to
connect to the gravity sewer system. Therefore, the total length of sewer service lateral pipe to
be installed and the total number of septic tanks to be abandoned as part of the solicitation
award is unknown at this time. The total cost of each private sewer service lateral connection
installation will be site-specific, based on the configuration and constraints of the property and
the dwelling to be served. Orange County staff estimates that up to 27 LMI-qualified Heritage
Lot homeowners will request connection to the gravity sewer system over the three (3) year
period in which public funding will be available.
Attorneys for Orange County and the Towns of Chapel Hill and Carrboro have previously
advised their elected officials, managers, and staffs that the respective legal departments do
not believe the local governments have the necessary authority to pay for private sewer service
lateral connection installations that are not owned by "persons of low and moderate income".
Therefore, non-LMI Heritage Lot homeowners will not be able to utilize the joint funding that will
be made available by the proposed Interlocal Agreement (Attachment 2). Non-LMI Heritage Lot
homeowners (owner-occupied) wishing to connect to the gravity sewer system in the Rogers
Road area will be able to access a no-interest 10-year loan from Orange County, on a voluntary
basis, to help cover the associated costs.
The proposed Interlocal Agreement (Attachment 2) is the product of a joint collaborate review
effort by the Rogers Road Staff Working Group. The Group meets on a bi-weekly basis and
consists of designated representatives from Orange County, the Towns of Chapel Hill and
Carrboro, and OWASA. The proposed Interlocal Agreement has also been reviewed and
approved by the respective Attorneys of the three local governments. The Chapel Hill Town
Council is scheduled to consider the proposed Interlocal Agreement on May 1, and the Town of
Carrboro Board of Aldermen is scheduled to consider the proposed Interlocal Agreement on
May 7.
SOCIAL JUSTICE IMPACT: The following Orange County Social Justice Goal is applicable to
this item:
• GOAL: ESTABLISH SUSTAINABLE AND EQUITABLE LAND-USE AND
ENVIRONMENTAL POLICIES
The fair treatment and meaningful involvement of people of all races, cultures, incomes
and educational levels with respect to the development and enforcement of
environmental laws, regulations, policies, and decisions. Fair treatment means that no
group of people should bear a disproportionate share of the negative environmental
consequences resulting from industrial, governmental and commercial operations or
policies.
FINANCIAL IMPACT: There is adequate existing Planning & Inspections staff and Housing &
Community Development staff to complete the responsibilities enumerated in the proposed
Interlocal Agreement (Attachment 2). The installation of private sewer service lateral
connections will occur over the next three years (2019, 2020, 2021), commencing upon the
adoption of the proposed Interlocal Agreement and upon the solicitation of pre-qualified
licensed plumbers to complete the private sewer service lateral connection installation work.
Orange County had budgeted $220,000 in the current (FY18/19) Capital Investment Plan (CIP)
to fund this program, with the expectation of reimbursement by the Towns, as detailed in the
proposed Interlocal Agreement. Staff will do a CIP amendment to add an additional $23,000
transferred from the construction account for a total of $243,000, which matches the related
3
ILA. If Planning & Inspections staff determines that the costs of private sewer service lateral
connection installations for LMI-qualified Heritage Lot homeowners may exceed the allocated
budget, the staff will present a CIP amendment to the BOCC for consideration.
RECOMMENDATIONS: The Manager recommends the Board:
1) Review and approve the proposed Interlocal Agreement contained in Attachment 2 and
authorize the County Manager and Finance Director to sign; and
2) Direct staff to move forward with implementation by completing the responsibilities listed
in Article 4 of the proposed Interlocal Agreement contained in Attachment 2.

Outreach Work Plan: Part 2
Jackson Center/RENA/Rogers Road Partnership Proposal
EXHIBIT A: Work Program
1. OVERVIEW
The objective of the Marian Cheek Jackson Center Qackson Center) is to continue
to work in partnership with Rogers Eubanks Neighborhood Association (RENA)
for two primary purposes:
1) To continue. to assist OWASA and the concerned municipalities with
outreach about sewer implementation, including communication and
engagement about sewer easements and next steps of the project, securing
and advancing neighborhood feedback and guidance in the municipal
planning processes.
2) To help facilitate a community-first planning effort, specifically aimed at
assisting neighbors in developing a set of guiding principles for planning
decisions and engaging neighbors in proactive long-term planning as
sewer implementation begins.
2. SCOPE OF SERVICES
Concentration 1: Sewer implementation outreach
As sewer design begins,there are a number of ways in which outreach,
community engagement,and ongoing communication will be essential both for
the success of the project and its ability to continue movement forward
expeditiously. We can assist neighborhood leaders and OWASA engineers with
community outreach and communication as they approach the design phase of
the sewer project. We can serve as a conduit for communication and help ensure
that neighbors are engaged at each stage of the design and have accurate and
clear information. This will also include continued stakeholder engagement and
additional capacity support for ongoing neighborhood communication strategies
that were developed over the first period of our contract.
The scope of work will include the following:
• Organize an initial public meeting with the support of the three municipal
partners and OWASA to share information about the design process
• Attend weekly meetings with municipal planners, neighborhood
leadership and OWASA to discuss timeline and priorities for the month
DocuSign Envelope ID:09FB8A3C-9304-40E2-8033-A5FF7CBA6067 22
• Serve as communication conduit, ensuring appropriate information about
sewer implementation is shared with all neighbors in the Historic Rogers
Road neighborhood and municipal partners through multiple
communication forums established during first period of contract,
including but not limited to door-to-door conversations, community
newspapers, and small group gatherings.
• Follow up with individual households once OWASA releases the initial
"30%" plan that requires specific feedback on the design and easement
feedback. This will likely include an additional public review meeting to
ensure broader stakeholders have a chance to review the initial design.
• Synthesize feedback from outreach efforts to help ensure the most
appropriate adjustments and options are chosen given both neighborhood
feedback and realities and engineering proposals and realities
• Once the "60%" plan is released by OWASA, we will assist the partners
(neighbors, OWASA,Orange County) on sewer easement
communication/acquisition,helping expedite the process as much as
possible by connecting OWASA/Orange County more effectively with
neighbors and ensuring the big picture work is shared with all parties.
This will include working closely with neighborhood leadership and
Orange County staff to set up a second round of communication with all
landowners/residents directly impacted by the sewer project.
• Provide feedback on the sewer implementation process at relevant
municipal meetings given outreach efforts to help movement forward in a
full and expedited manner (as much as possible given realities and
challenges of engineering work)
Concentration 2: Community-First Planning'
The Jackson Center's experience is primarily in community planning and
strategy work. Each municipal partner has expressed different concerns about
the pressures of development and the need for community guidance as
development proposals arrive and planning decisions begin to be made. Chapel
Hill Council Members expressed this concern when the council voted to expand
the ETJ and development proposals began arriving for large tracts of land on the
'We have utilized a model of community-first planning in our work in
Northside.This model is built on an intensive set of communication and organizing tools that bring neighbors and other
stakeholders into active and honest planning discussions with the tensions and possibilities of change.Our model engages
the strengths and struggles of history first and continually.Creative communication strategies are a central part of our
work:we find ways to reach people the ways they best receive contact.We develop clear"gives and gets"strategy
framework.We believe that discussing the benefits and challenges openly is the best way for communities to mobilize for
movement forward

periphery of the neighborhood. Orange County Commissioners,in ceding its
joint planning decision power, expressed concern about community influence in
planning decisions, wanting to ensure that neighbors had some power in future
decisions. Carrboro Alderman have more clear guidance in their zoning area but
have also wanted to ensure that equity work truly benefits the historic residents
and does not lead to gentrification and displacement. As sewer design moves
forward, we can design and implement a community-first planning process that
engages the Historic Rogers Road neighborhood broadly and specifically. Much
historic work has been done (including our partnership outreach work last year),
and our model builds on the power of the historic work. This process will result
in three clear deliverables: a set of guiding principles/priorities developed by
the community (that can be helpful for future planning decisions), a map (or set
of maps) of general recommendations for place-specific hopes, and a set of
neighborhood strategies that can be implemented by ongoing resident leadership
to help pursue community aspirations. These strategies will include tools and
resources that allow for neighbors to give guidance for future neighborhood
development and to help combat gentrification. We believe that prior work
requires preparation and execution of a thoughtfully focused series of
conversations that will simultaneously contribute to community development
and sewer implementation.
The scope of work will include the following:
• Meet with community leadership and each municipal partner to engage
previous plans (small area, zoning designations, task force
recommendations) and the principles/aspirations behind them.
• Work with RENA leaders, additional community leaders, and a team of
consultants (sub-contractors) to establish an initial.draft of guiding
principles/priorities given historic efforts, plans, and recent surveys and
engagement.
• Develop, organize, and help convene a key stakeholder group,made up
primarily of residents from different parts of the Rogers Road
neighborhood, to include the various subsections of the neighborhood
between Homestead and Eubanks.
• Convene and facilitate at least three (likely 4) meetings with this
stakeholder group to set guiding principles/priorities given three months
of input, to design a community-based map that gives general municipal
direction on community hopes, and to create a set of strategies for
neighbors to implement as sewer implementation begins.
• Host a final larger community forum for input on the draft of the plan and
its implementation.
DocuSign Envelope ID:09FB8A3C-9304-40E2-8033-A5FF7CBA6067 24
• Submit a final draft of the three-prong community plan to the three
municipalities which can be used to guide future planning efforts and
ensure community recommendations are established as sewer
implementation begins
• Provide technical mapping and data assistance throughout planning
process
EXHIBIT B: Timeline and Compensation
Timeline for concentrations:
Concentration 1: 6 months of active work,in two-month phases (proposed start
of July 15)
- First 2 months: broad based communication and
larger information meeting
