S <br />Town <br />of <br />Hills <br />~~~ <br />a;1994 Town of H71eAOrw, <br />To: Mayor Tom Stevens <br />Frances Dancy <br />Michael Gering <br />L. Eric Hallman <br />Evelyn Lloyd <br />Brian Lowen <br />Eric Peterson <br />Nicole Ard <br />Memorandum <br />December 5, 2008 <br />Re: Efland Cheek Sewer Customer Participation <br />in the Hillsborough Water Assistance Program <br />From: The Water Sewer Advisory Committee <br />Funding assistance programs are being sought to supplement current Efland Cheek Sewer <br />Customers once a required rate increase is implemented. Unfortunately, a County funded assistance <br />program will not be available until after the increase has been implemented. It was suggested that <br />maybe these customers could use Water Assistance Funds since they are theoretically Hillsborough <br />customers with Orange County as the intermediary. <br />A brief background summary of the Efland Cheek Sewer System, the rates and its customers is <br />included on the following page. <br />Town staff approached the Water Sewer Advisory Committee for their thoughts and <br />recommendations on allowing the Efland Cheek Sewer Customers access to the Town's Water <br />Assistance Funds at OCIM if they qualify through Orange County Social Services. <br />After a brief discussion, the Water Sewer Advisory Committee made a Motion of Consent to make a <br />recommendation to the Hillsborough Town Board Commissioners, to allow Efland Cheek Sewer <br />Customers Access to the Water Assistance Program Funds at OCIM through the existing qualification <br />process of Orange County Social Services. The only stipulation is that Efland Cheek Customers be <br />given the information and opportunity to make contributions to the fund. <br />cc: Laura Blackmon, County Manager <br />Kevin Lindley, Orange County Engineering Specialist <br />Rev.
