MOSES CAREY, JR., CHAIR- ORANGE COUNTY COMMISSIONERS <br />STEPHEN H. HALKiomI V /CE CHAIR P. O. BOX 8181 <br />MARGARET W. BROWN <br />AucEM.GORDON 200 S. CAMERON STREET <br />BARRY JACOBS <br />HILLSBOROUGH, N.C. 27278 <br />Memorandum <br />To: Orange County Board of Commissioners <br />Subject: Water and Sewer Service Boundary Agreement <br />From: Moses Carey, Jr., Chairman <br />Date: March 14, 2000 <br />art <br />The revised draft of the Water and Sewer Service Boundary Agreement is attached for <br />your information and review. This draft is the result of your previous review of the <br />proposed changes discussed at our last meeting on this subject as well as the results of a <br />meeting with the mayors of Chapel Hill, Hillsborough and Carrboro. They each stated <br />that they believed that the draft enclosed would be acceptable with the majority of their <br />boards. This draft has also been shared and discussed with OWASA board and staff <br />representatives and seems to be acceptable with them because it addresses most of their <br />concerns. The attorneys of the boards have not reviewed this draft. <br />A meeting has been scheduled with the two Hillsborough board members that you asked <br />Commissioner Gordon and me to meet with to discuss a draft that might be acceptable to <br />Hillsborough. That meeting is scheduled for April 6a'. <br />The one constant in all these discussions has been that the original map of the boundaries <br />will remain the same as agreed on by consensus. No one has a favorable perception of <br />the revisions of the map presented by Hillsborough a few weeks ago. Hillsborough <br />representatives are aware of this situation. <br />Your guidance is sought at this time to move this matter closer to conclusion and <br />adoption by all parties. No one with whom I have spoken has a desire to reconvene the <br />task force again to address this matter. The mayors have suggested that they would take <br />it to their boards for consideration when we get a draft that would be acceptable to most <br />stakeholder boards. That would determine what the next steps would be if it is not <br />accepted. <br />Cc: John Link, County Manager <br />Geoff Gledhill, County Attorney <br />You Count In Orange County <br />(919) 245 -2130 .
