0 Two resolutions are provided for your consideration: * Resolution A would recommend to the governing boards the acquisition of a specific site (not currently owned by the LOG) for property on which to develop a Materials Recovery Facility, utilizing landfill reserve funds . (Specific site to be inserted into resolution depend upon final choice.) If resolution A is preferred, we would suggest that the LOG .direct the staff to negotiate for a suitable parcel at the location of choice, entering into a conditional offer to purchase contract (based on a recent appraisal or other market instrument), and returning at the November LOG meeting for consideration of resolution A. At that time, the LOG would be made aware of the specific price, if negotiations were successful,. for the property being recommended to the boards for purchase. * Resolution B would recommend to the governing boards that a currently owned site be utilized on which to develop a Materials Recovery Facility. If resolution B below is preferred, we would suggest that we immediately forward the Owners Group recommendation for governing board consideration and authorize the Chapel Hill Town Manager to begin negotiations for the single parcel to be used for the relocated yard waste/mulch processing area (Greene tract option does not require purchase of single parcel). Additionally, while reviewing our current North Eubanks landfill site that led to our discovery of the new MRF site option, we also discovered a possible location for a transfer station, if certain other landfill operations are relocated. 'T'his new possible transfer station site. is located in the area of .the county convenience center and equipment yard, to the right (east) of the scales (see attachment 1). The convenience center could be relocated across the road since the south side will be closed when the transfer facility is needed. If the LOG would like additional information on the possible new transfer station site, we could provide it at the November LOG meeting. Recommendation: That the Landfill Owners Group select a site from the above list of candidate sites, or other sites as identified, or e oca ion o t e new Orange County Materials Recovery r~aciiiLy. Our revised recommendation is the North Eubanks Road site (Resolution B), which would include the acquisition of 1 parcel (7.18..27E - 3.62 acres) directly west-of the North Eubanks Road landfill (Greene tract option. does not .require purchase of single parcel) .
