14 1 July 1" to "effective July 1." Also, on page 13, subsection `h', the very last sentence should 2 have "3(c)(5)". In Sections 5 and 6, these are the portions of the bill that affect education. This 3 allows students who currently go to Orange County Schools to remain in Orange County 4 Schoots, as well as their siblings. If a student goes to Alamance County Schools, they and their 5 siblings will have the option to remain in Alamance County Schools. None of the students will 6 have to pay the county tuition. 7 Section 7 allows Alamance County and Orange County to establish an administrative 8 review process on the petitions that residents file. The petitions have to be completed by 9 December 15'n 10 Also, in Section 9, the first sentence, it should say, "Section 7" and not "Section 6 and 11 7." 12 John Roberts said that by no later than May 15, 2011 the General Assembly should 13 have a 2011 local bill that formally ratifies the line. 14 15 Commissioner Yuhasz made reference to Section 3(b), where it talks about public 16 records related to properties. He said that it would be wise to put a notice provision in there so 17 that when properties are shifted from one jurisdiction to another, that some kind of notice be 18 filed in the appropriate Register of Deeds office so that people can find where the properties 19 belong. He made reference to Section 4(g) and the areas affected by the resurvey, etc. and 20 said that if a piece of property moves from one county to another, it will vote for local offices in 21 one county at one precinct, and this statement suggests that they would have to go to another 22 precinct in a different county. 23 John Roberts said that this was vetted by both Election Directors in Orange County and 24 Alamance County. There are representatives who serve across county lines, and this does not 25 say that the voters have to go to another precinct. He will discuss this with the Alamance 26 County Attorney. 27 Craig Benedict said that there is a precinct line changing process that may be a result 28 of this and this would come afterwards. 29 Commissioner Yuhasz made reference to 6 and 7, "the small lot subdivision shall not 30 be divided on a lot by lot basis." He asked if the subdivision is horizontal, then one part of the 31 subdivision could be in one jurisdiction and the other in the other jurisdiction. He does not want 32 to preclude this. 33 Craig Benedict said that in the Mill Creek subdivision, the line meanders through the 34 whole subdivision. 35 Commissioner Yuhasz said that he is not happy with the idea of petitions. He said that 36 where it is fairly obvious that a subdivision should be in one jurisdiction or another, he does not 37 want to require residents to petition. 38 Frank Clifton said that part of the issue with the petition process is recognition that 39 there is a cost associated with the boundary change because of a survey. 40 Commissioner Pelissier asked about the average cost of a plat done for an appeal. 41 She made reference to the expectations that were set out in the past and she asked what type 42 of communications there will be going forward with the citizens. 43 Craig Benedict said that the version that was agreed upon at the November gtn 44 meeting, this hybrid solution should cover 96% of the deviation. There are about 3-4 lots on N. 45 Oakland that it does not cover. It also does not include situations where a development has 46 been approved and is unrecorded. This is something that is yet to be figured out. The 47 developers will be asked to move the plat lines where applicable. The letters that will go out will 48 explain any deviation from the Option 2, Version 3 in November. 49 Frank Clifton said that the cost of the platting could be reduced if groups do it together.
