ti <br />14 <br />FINAL <br />4/30/99 <br />E. Siting of Essential Public Facilities Within Interest Areas <br />The location of some essential public facilities, particularly . <br />schools, requires special consideration for access to public <br />water and sewer lines. <br />Where possible, schools shall be sited in a manner that <br />promotes the efficient use of existing water and sewer service. <br />Preferably, a set of criteria governing such situations would be <br />. developed based on consultations between the appropriate <br />school boards and the elected officials of affected jurisdictions, <br />and applied as necessary. <br />Publicly-owned facilities other than a public school shall be <br />located in a manner that promotes the orderly provision of <br />water and sewer service. The preferred method of connection is <br />to lines that already exist, or in a manner that would minimize <br />the need to extend existing lines. <br />F. Water and Sewer Service Into/Out of Orange County <br />Recognizing the land use implications of public water and <br />public sewer service in adjacent counties on jurisdictions <br />within Orange County, water and sewer service of any of the <br />service providers that are parties to this agreement shall not be <br />extended outside of the boundaries of Orange County without <br />the approval of the elected boards which exercise planning <br />jurisdiction on either side of the County boundary. -Any <br />extension of lines or service into Chatham County requires the <br />approval of Orange County, Chapel Hill, Carrboro and OWASA. <br />This approval is not required when water and sewer service is <br />required as a condition of annexation by .the towns of Chapel <br />Hill or Carrboro. <br />13 <br />
