21 . <br />ORANGE COUNTY <br />HILLSBOROUGH <br />NORTR CAROLINA <br />MEMORA"UM <br />TO: Orange County Board of commissioners <br />FROM: John Link, County Manager <br />DATE: May 28.1999 <br />RE: Periodic Updates on Significant Topics <br />I have several updates for you as summarized below and in the enclosed attachrpents: <br />1. Mebane Resolixtions on Joint Manning Resolutio <br />I am collaborating directly with Robert Wilson, City er of Mebane, on ref ''ors for joint planning. We <br />are giving first priority to a Reso ,.'on o L greemcnt o �f` e11ite Annexa#aor , governing bodies would <br />hopefully agree to before the s ` A ILL � t l a.

Solid Waste Financing Alt�iab>dbcs ." ` <br />The Solid Waste Alternative Financing Committee met a number of times earlier this fiscal year to consider <br />options to generate additional revenue to support the new facilities and programs that will be necessary to meet <br />our solid waste reduction goals. One idea that has been suggested is a set of servicc districts in which ad <br />valorem taxes could be levied at different rates as necessary to support the specific level of solid waste services <br />that might be provided in those individual districts. <br />The materials at Attachment 2 were provided to the Chapel Hill Town Council as an analysis of the feasibility <br />of solid waste service districts. We are passing this along now, as it seems that with dw Cuuaty's pendhig <br />assumption of solid waste management responsibility, it is unlikely that the Alternative Financing Committee <br />will meet again and likely that the Board of Commissioners will make the ultimate decisions on solid waste <br />financing mechanisms. <br />AREA CODE (9191732-8181 • 968-4501 + 688 -7331 • 227.2031 • FAX (919) 644 -3004 <br />
