Tryon St., Hillsborough, NC 27278 (919) 245 -2660 <br />To: David Stancil <br />Environment and Resource Conservation Department <br />From: Recreation and Parks Advisory Council <br />Date: January 28, 2010 <br />Subject: Master Plan for the Hollow Rock Access Area <br />The Recreation and Parks Advisory Council (RPAC) reviewed the progress made by the <br />Hollow Rock Access Area planning group on several occasions. RPAC appreciates having <br />had the opportunity to recommend a member to serve on this planning group. Our <br />representative, Ingrid Medcalf kept us well informed as the meetings progressed. <br />At its November 4, 2009 meeting RPAC voted unanimously to endorse both versions of the <br />plan. The Council did not take a position on the Pickett Rd. question. In addition, they did <br />not choose to comment on the possible acquisition of the Barn on the TLC property. <br />The motion to endorse the plans includes the language that the park should be developed <br />"...when funding becomes available at a future date." It was their intent to support park <br />development in a priority order that makes sense for Orange County residents. Members of <br />the Council look forward to the day that ground can be broken on the Blackwood Farm <br />property and the Millhouse Rd. property as projects that could be considered for priority <br />funding. <br />RPAC appreciates the work of the committee members and staff in this lengthy process <br />
