CAMERON STREET BARRY/ACOes HILLSBOROUGH, N.C. 27278 a ;~o d 3 July 2, 1999 The Honorable Mike Nelson Mayor, Town of Carrboro 301 W. Main Street, P.O. Box 829 Carrboro, NC 27510 Deaz Mike: On Wednesday night, June 30, the Orange County Boazd of Commissioners completed its discussion of the proposed solid waste management interlocal agreement. The Boazd adopted a modified version of the June 1, 1999 draft that had been prepazed by Bob Jessup. A clean copy of the agreement in the form approved by the County Commissioners is provided as Attachment 1. A "blacklined" version that shows the changes in the County-approved agreement as compazed to the June 1 draft, is provided as Attachment 2. Although this letter highlights the changes to the agreement from the June 1 draft, the decision of the Boazd of Commissioners is in concert with the Towns of Carrboro and Chapel Hill on most of the changes proposed from the May 10, 1999 draft of the agreement. It is also in accord with the Town of Chapel Hill's desire to add language that refers to the Integrated Solid Waste Management Plan. I believe the list below and the attached version of the interlocal agreement capture the most significant changes from the June 1 draft agreement, as approved by the Boazd of Commissioners. In the interests of timely, formal communication to you concerning the Commissioners' action, I am transmitting this letter and its attachments while the Manager, Attorney, and staff aze still in the process of finalizing the documents to reflect the Commissioners' decisions. Therefore, I will forwazd to you an errata sheet next week should we ascertain that further changes were required to the documents. The solid waste management interlocal agreement as approved by the Orange County Boazd of Commissioners: • Affirms the commitment of the parties to solid waste reduction goals. ^ Renames the Solid Waste Advisory Boazd (rather than Commission), and provides that this Boazd will operate consistent with the procedures generally observed by other advisory boazds and commissions, as approved by the County Commissioners. ^ Effective date of County assumption of responsibility coincides with the effective date at which the portion of the Greene Tract set aside for solid waste purposes (other than MSW or C&D burial) is zoned to permit those solid waste activities. ^ Creation and imposition of "governmental fees" by the County requires agreement of one other party (rather than two).
