COUNTY COMMISSIONERS ABSENT: Commissioner Earl McKee
COUNTY ATTORNEYS PRESENT: John Roberts
COUNTY STAFF PRESENT: County Manager Bonnie Hammersley, Deputy County Manager

Chair Price called the Board of County Commissioners meeting to order at 7:00 p.m. All
Commissioners were present except for Commissioner McKee.
Chair Price said that Commissioner McKee will be late to the meeting.
Chair Price explained that public comment is not taken at Budget Work Sessions or

public hearings for members of the public to comment on the budget.
1. Discussion of Manager's Recommended FY 2022-32 Capital Investment Plan (CIP)
Travis Myren introduced the information below:
BACKGROUND: Each year, the County produces a Capital Investment Plan (CIP) that
establishes a budget planning guide related to capital needs for the County and Schools. The
CIP has been enhanced to provide specific enumeration of project funding in years 6-10 as
well. The 10-Year CIP is evaluated annually to include year-to-year changes in priorities, needs,
and available resources. Approval of the CIP commits the County to the first-year funding only
of the capital projects; all other years are used as a planning tool and serves as a financial plan.
Capital Investment Plan — Overview
The FY 2022-32 CIP includes County Projects, School Projects, and Proprietary Projects. The
school Projects include Chapel Hill-Carrboro City Schools, Orange County Schools, and
Durham Technical Community College — Orange County Campus projects. The Proprietary
Projects include Water and Sewer, Solid Waste Enterprise Fund, and Sportsplex projects.
The CIP has been prepared anticipating moderate economic growth of approximately 2% in
property tax growth and 4% in sales tax growth annually over the next ten years. The CIP will
rely substantially on debt financing to fund the projects and these required debt amounts are
fully integrated in the County's Long-Term Debt Model (page 24 provides a bar chart of the ten-
year funding plan).
The meeting discussion will focus on County and Proprietary CIP projects. Note: Page numbers
are referenced below as they appear in the CIP document. See Attachment A for the Overall
2
CIP Summary (page 20), County CIP Projects Summary (page 32), and the Proprietary CIP
Summaries (page 25). Discussion of the Schools CIP projects is scheduled for the May 12,
2022 Budget Work Session. The Orange County Campus - Durham Technical Community
College new academic building project will also be discussed at the May 26, 2022 meeting.
Discussion at this meeting will also be directed to the Debt Service and Debt Capacity —
General Fund (page 133), the Water and Sewer Debt Service requirements paid with Article 46
Quarter Cent Sales Tax proceeds (page 134), and Debt Service requirements for Solid Waste
(page 135) and Sportsplex (page 136).

Travis Myren said the orange sections of the graph represent the county portion and
that is the focus of tonight. He said this amount stays relatively constant, with a few increases
and decreases over the 10 years. He noted that net new colocated EMS substations will be
funded in FY 2023-24 and FY 2026-27, and accounts for the slight increase in those years,
along with funding the Soccer.com complex expansion in the latter year. He said the next big
increase is FY2029-30 when another EMS substation is proposed and the development of Twin
Creeks Park.

Travis Myren said Steve Arndt, Director of Asset Management Services, his staff went
through all capital requests and looked at current construction costs. He noted that construction
costs are incredibly expensive right now, and some projects have increased by almost 80%. He
said the Efland EMS Substation bid took place this afternoon and is overbudget, so staff will be
bringing a recommendation back to the Board on how to make up the difference and proceed
with the project.

Travis Myren said this is an example of a multi-year project. He said the funds were
awarded in FY 2019-20, and funds continue to be spent down.
Chair Price asked if all of the money is dedicated already.
Travis Myren said the money was awarded in FY 2019-20 and the program is continuing
to spend down the intial $150,000 grant balance.
Commissioner Hamilton asked what year the $550,150 in Climate Mitigation Funds will
be available.
Travis Myren said it is projected to be available in FY 2022-23.
Commissioner Hamilton asked if that amount is new money, or also includes unspent
funds from the previous fiscal year.
Travis Myren said that amount is new.
Commissioner Hamilton asked if there is a way to see how much was unspent from the
previous year.
Travis Myren asked Gary Donaldson, Chief Finance Officer, for that amount.
Gary Donaldson and Travis Myren said the total project balance is $1.2 million, and
there are several projects in the pipeline where grants have been awarded but money has not
yet been drawn down.
Commissioner Greene clarified that she believes the Board wants to know the amount
from previous years that is uncommitted.
Travis Myren said staff will follow up with that information.
Chair Price said it was almost all committed, but the schools haven't spent all of their
grant money.
Commissioner Greene said she would like to know what school projects in the last round
of funding scored highly enough to be approved.

Commissioner Greene asked if there was any money left over from the FY 2020-21
round of funding.
8
Travis Myren said no. He said the uncommitted total the Board is seeking would only
come from FY 2021-22 because the schools did not request the full amount allocated for them.
He said that the school system did not apply in 2021. He said he does not know the exact
number that would have been unallocated in 2021 but that he can provide that information.
Commissioner Richards says that she is having a hard time understanding why the
school system is not using the funds that is available to them for climate.
Commissioner Bedford said that the Chapel Hill-Carrboro Schools did apply for solar in
the last year and that was approved by the Board in the fall. She said that Orange County
schools have not brought a project.
Commissioner Hamilton said that she sits on the capital needs workgroup and that has
brought a better understanding of the challenges that the schools face with handling any large
capital project. She said that personnel is a major challenge in this area.
Chair Price asked if what they are looking at now is $550,150 that will be set aside and
there have been no applications for the use of those funds.
Travis Myren said that the $550,150 is what will be available for use next year and the
grant cycle has not started yet.
Chair Price asked if what they are being shown demonstrates past year funding and
funds that have not been drawn down by the grant recipents.
Travis Myren said yes.
Chair Price asked if there is a stipulation in the grant that says awardees must have
used their previous allocation before being awarded any additional or future grant funds.
Travis Myren said that he does not believe so.
Commissioner Richards also noted that there is also no timeline required for completion
of the grant project in the agreements. She said this would be an ongoing lag due to the grant
cycle timing.
Chair Price said that she is aware of the lag but was seeking clarification on if there was
a restriction in place for additional funds before using previous grant awards.
Travis Myren said that restriction is not currently part of the policy.
Commissioner Greene asked if the Board could have estimated finish lines for those
grants in progress for future presenations.
Travis Myren said yes.
Commissoiner Hamilton said when they first established these funds, the community
projects had a lot of interest but at the same time they know they are in an environment with
labor and equipment shortages. She said that all entities, large and small, will be struggling with
using this money in the most effective way. She said that there may be need to think about
better ways to allocate funds to get better use for climate mitigation.
Commissioner Greene said that all of the projects that have been authorized to go
forward have sustainability goals built in. She said she would like to keep focus on external
grants that go to community members such as low income housing, ReBuiling Together of the
Triangel, The Arts Center, the Farmers Market, and Habitat for Humanity. She said these have
a benefit and she is not saying schools are not important for this but these entiteis are the
original focus of the grant.
Chair Price said that one thing they were intersted in was how quickly the group could
be implementing the project because there are other organizations that could use the money
rather than it be sitting without use for a few years.
Travis Myren said they can explore time to intiate a project with a timeline of completion.
Chair Price said there are a lot of projects coming forward with only so much money
available, so she doesn't want awarded money to go to waste.

said the project includes repairs and a survey. He said the survey will show where county land
begins and private land ends.
Commissioner Hamilton said she noticed that the capital investment plan notebook said
that staff is hopeful that federal infrastructure funds may be available for this project. She asked
what year federal infrastructure funding may be available, how much, and where would
budgeted money go instead.
Travis Myren said he will follow up with timeline of potential funding. He said if federal
money is received, this amount would be taken out of CIP and not borrowed.
Chair Price asked what the $2 million in professional services is for (from the CIP
notebook)
Kirk Vaughn, Budget Analyst, and Travis Myren said it for the replacement of the
spillway channel.
Travis Myren explained that there was a typo and the construction cost amount and
professional services amount shown in the CIP notebook should be switched. He said that
construction should be shown as $2 million and professional services about $2,000.

Commissioner Greene asked about the reasoning behind pushing out the expansion of
the Southern Orange Campus until FY 2030-31. She asked if the development agreement will
still be binding then.
Travis Myren said part of expansion was for dental offices. He said that the mobile
dental clinic eliminated that need. He said the previous health director had invisioned an
expansion of medical services provided but that did not get implemented to that removed the
need for that portion of the expansion. He said the only thing left is the front part of the building
where meeting room is and adding AN upgrades.
Commissioner Greene asked if it would still cost $5 million.
Travis Myren said that is the total old cost and it needs to be revised based on the
changes he noted.
Commissioner Richards asked if sustainability projects would include transitioning the
county's vehicle fleet to electric and hybrid vehicles.
Travis Myren said there was a lighting project at Hillsborough Commons completed with
these funds too. He said that when the county projects are designed and constructed,
sustainability is built into the project budget rather than added on. He said that they start with
the most sustainable options first. He said that as a result that is why they have geo-thermal
and solar panels at the northern campus.
Commissioner Richards asked if those are built into the design during county building
and rehab.
Bonnie Hammersley said those are the standards that the county follows. She said this
$50,000 is just for little projects that might come up throughout the year. She said all county
projects are looked at from a sustainability perspective. She said they rarely certify LEED but
build that would be LEED certified with the attempt all the way to LEED Gold. She said there is
not a separate budget for sustainability with county projects.
Chair Price asked if county is eligible to apply for the Volkswagen settlement money
from the state.
Travis Myren said yes and the county will apply.
17
Chair Price asked if these projects could be added to those settlement funds grant.
Travis Myren said more projects could be completed.
Chair Price asked if there is a charge for using electric vehicle charging stations.
Travis Myren said no.
Commissioner Fowler asked if the vehicle fleet would be replaced with electric vehicles
and hybrids.
Travis Myren said two vehicles are scheduled to be hybrid. He said there aren't enough
charging stations in parking lots for the county to successfully operate electric vehicles. He said
they are working on a staff recommendation on which can be electrified and how much it will
cost to install additional charging facilties in the parking lot.
Commissioner Richards said she was at the unveiling of the Chapel Hill electric buses.
She asked if the county is pursuing state funds for the electricrificaiton of the fleet.
Theo Letman, Transportation Services Director, said the county was awarded a low
emission grant from state. He said there are delays in the production of electric vehicles. He
said there are supply chain issues and there are only a couple of manufacturers that produce
the type of vehicles the county uses.
Commissioner Richards said the beauty of the 10 year plan is that electric vehicles can
be built into future years. She said it also takes several years to get these vehicles designed,

Chair Price said the county has been looking at the VW grant for years, maybe even
four years ago. She said that the county is making an attempt and has 28 hybrid cars and
SUVs and 1 electric motorcycle for the Sheriff.

Office of the Courts.
Chair Price asked about having something at the Southern facility.
Jim Northrup said the backup center is at the Southern Human Services Center. He said
most sequel databases are backed up into the cloud, and most file databases are backed up in
the data center and replicated at Southern Human Services. He said the replication gets put off

Kirby Saunders, Emergency Services Director, said these facilities are primarily public
schools in both districts. He said staff's proprosal for next year is to assess each facility and
prioritize based on location and ability to communicate. He said there are schools that staff
26
already knows emergency services cannot communicate inside those facilities because the
radios will not work. He said the only way to solve that problem was to build new towers and
that gets quite expensive. He said that this proposal would resolve that inability to communicate
in critical facilities like schools over the next four to five years, while continuing to work on on
street coverage.
Commissioner Fowler asked if towers are public or private.
Kirby Saunders said both private and stated-owned VIPER towers are used. He said
there are 3 or 4 towers in Orange County and the rest are located in surrounding counties.
Chair Price asked why more money isn't being spent sooner to address communication
gaps.
Kirby Saunders said staff wants to complete benchmark testing first and be sure of
individual needs at each of the schools to prioritize accordingly.
Chair Price asked if this will all be done prior to next school year. She said it sounds like
immediate need.
Kirby Saunders said the benchmark testing could likely be completed by then, but the
timeline of installation is unknown. He said the benchmarking and installation are two separate
projects.
Commissioner Hamilton thanked staff for prioritizing schools. She asked if the
equipment can be moved.
Kirby Saunders said yes.
Commissioner Bedford asked if hospitals have capability.
Kirby Saunders said newly constructed areas of hospitals are on the VIPER network and
that UNC Hospitals also has a law enforcement agency inside of it that operates on the State
VIPER network so he does not belive there are any communications issues inside of the
facilities at UNC Hospitals.
Commissioner Bedford asked if rehab centers and nursing homes present an issue as
well.
Kirby Saunders said that is not currently in the study, but can be. He said they have not
identified any that have no communication.
Bonnie Hammersley said those facilities are privately owned as well, so the property
owner would have to do that.

Travis Myren said that this slide shows where all of the current parks are and where
future ones are planned. He said they are all in some part of the 10-year plan and all are
staggered throughout the CIP. He said those that are closer in time include revenue producing
or projects with a shared cost to the county.
Commissioner Fowler asked if soccer.com is partnering with the county.
Travis Myren said that would be an example of a revenue producing facility.
Commissioner Fowler asked if the county will fund all of it.
Travis Myren said yes.
Commissioner Richards asked about the improvement at the soccer.com facility.
David Stancil said it includes construction of new fields, parking issues, adding
restrooms, and maintaining facilities. He said there is also discussion about stormwater needs
there. He said there will need to be a decision made about if the fields will be natural or
synthetic turf.
Commissioner Richards asked if these parks are in the economic development zone.
David Stancil said it is colocated next to Gravelly Hill Elementary School.
Commissioner Richards said she is still wrapping her head around why the fields are in
the economic development zone when the county is looking to attract businesses. She said the
expansion of the fields decreases available land for businesses and the county is already
limited on areas available for businesses to locate.
David Stancil said the original siting decision was made in 2005-2008.
Commissioners Richards said she understands that they cannot undo things they have
set in motion.
28
Chair Price said that Preston Loop is residential and added there. She said that Gravelly
Hill came in and helped with economic development. She said that soccer.com has been a
money-maker by bringing international tournaments. She said there were discussions about
needing to add a hotel and other amenities for the tourists that the fields bring.
Commissioner Richards said that since the county has not built those, the tourists go to
Mebane.
Travis Myren said a policy decision was made several years ago to locate the facilities
there. He said there is demand for expansion and rather than create an entirelly new facility the
county purchased the adjacent property and is expanding current facilities.
Chair Price said this is an economic development driver.
Commissioner Bedford said she agrees with taking a fresh look at parks and past
decisions.
Commissioner Richards said she is trying to understand economic development zones
and limitations.
Chair Price said she thinks that having the soccer fields next to the school is better
buffer than having an industrial complex. She said that the school construction brought water
and sewer to the area and then economic development started to pop up. She said the
soccer.com facility has helped with economic development.
David Stancil said there is a national and international tournament that comes each fall.
Commissioner Greene said it would be beneficial to have a hotel in the area.
David Stancil said the showcase folks were good about requiring visitors to get hotel
rooms inside the county where they were playing. He said a lot stayed in Chapel Hill and a few
in Hillsborough. He said more hotels and places to eat would increase that benefit.
Commissioner Hamilton asked how maintenance is built into cost of field. She said
especially if they are artificial turf. She said Cedar Park fields are disintegrating because of the
heavy use.
David Stancil said he has heard the same about fields she referenced. He said there will
need to be a cost benefit analysis of natural surface versus synthetic turf.
Commissioner Hamilton asked if Cedar Falls should be in county's CIP.
David Stancil said the county funded the field initially and the town did a renovation
where the county contributed. He said he does not know if town will ask for additional funding.
Bonnie Hammersley said the county contributed at the time but there is no obligation.
She said that county employees maintain soccer.com fields and they are dedicated to the
maintenance of those fields.
Commissioner Hamilton said artificial fields seem to require a capital expenditure when
they need to be replaced and that it is a susbtantial cost. She said that has not yet been built
into budgets.
David Stancil said that he cannot speak for the town but he believes the fields at Cedar
Park have deteriorated much faster than expected. He also noted that the county does not have
an obligation to maintain those fields.

Commissioner Bedford referred to page 84 and asked they are waiting on the

Travis Myren said staff if waiting on the comprehensive plan. He said there are no
areas designated.
Chair Price asked if there is a need for Twin Parks right now or has that need
decreased.
David Stancil said no and that the county built the greenway section. He said that the
Town of Carrboro is planning on finishing that section for connection to the Bolin Creek Trail.
He said they hear about that park sometimes from landowners but that it's a complicated facility
because there are roads leading to where park would be built. He said it is still a combo
education center and park. He said that there is still a colocation part of it because the ball
fields at Twin Creek are close to the schools, but it isn't an easy or cheap park to build. He said
it will be the county's largest park once it is built.
Travis Myren said projects were prioritized by revenue or if a partner is involved.
Chair Price said she was just wondering if needs had changed over time. She asked if
people are allowed in there.
David Stancil said there are signs asking people to stay on trails.

Commissioner Bedford said Year 1 looks good and that it is helpful to go through project
by project. She asked the commissioners to consider this discussion for the June retreat. She
said it might be helpful to hear how each person prioritizes the issues. She said she would like
to know that in these ten years, as they distinguish wants from needs, what are the critical
needs. She said that citizens also have issues they would like to have addressed and expect
certain things. She said that during the meeting on debt, there is no financial difference in a
bond versus issuing debt. She said that they need to consider if they want to continue moving
forward with a bond or if they have public hearings and issue debt. She said that they need to
continue to be cautious with pushing items out further in the CIP. She said the public should
understand that these items may be pushed out. She said some of the placeholder projects are
more important to her than what is in the plan. She said she wants to prevent the public from
thinking these projects are automatically happening.
Chair Price said there was a request to look at 10 years out because they used to look
at only five. She said this is all guessing further out. She said do not look at years 6-10 if they
do not want to, but staff is trying to accommodate requests from the full board.
Commissioner Greene said a bond requires voter approval for a specific purpose. She
said that if a bond is passed it must be used for what the public agreed to. She said that while it
does take more effort to get a bond approved, once it is, it will guarantee completion of the
project.
Commissioner Hamilton said it is helpful to have the 10-year view and they need to look
at the whole process as and educational opportunity. She said that given the needs, they must
look long term and prioritize. She said that she agrees there should be a placeholder for other
upcoming projects. She said it is Board's responsibility to communicate clearly with the
community.
Chair Price said that bonds should be planned in time for an educational campaign with
community.
Bonnie Hammersley thanked the Board for their input and reminded them of the next
meeting on Thursday.
Commissioner Bedford asked John Roberts to be prepared to comment on whether
timing matters for past appropriated funding on outside agency boards based on the new ruling.
A motion was made by Commissioner Fowler, seconded by Commissioner Bedford, to
adjourn the meeting at 8:54 p.m.
