~ .:' .7 .~_ h~'~ Board of Commissioners no sooner than August 1, 1989. - y VOTE: UNANIMOUS. Y - - D. RESOLUTIONS OR PROCLAMATIONS-NONE E. REPORTS 1. JTFA STATUS REPORT Assistant County Manager Albert Kittrell presented the Report. Commissioner Marshall expressed a concern that no evaluation was included in the report. Dr. Lunsford, a member of the PIC Council, explained that Orange County received a smaller amount of funds so they had less to work with. However, the money generated by Orange County was spent in Orange County on Orange County residents. In terms of the cost of OJT placements, the placements cost more in Orange County. The participants are not dissimilar from those in other JTPA areas. The PTC Council was not 100 pleased this last year. The clientele of the target group had not been met and there were problems getting started. Clearly, in terms of what can be expected in the future, it is hoped that more clients will be served in that portion of the population that is of greatest concern to the Commissioners and the PIC members. Jim Gibson, a member of the PIC Council, assured the Board that the next report would include an evaluation of the program: Cleon Curry of the PIC Council talked about the distribution of funds to the agencies administering the program. The PIC Council tried to look at the proposals they received and tried to receive the mast for the amount of money available. It was felt the money should go to the participants and not to administrators. 2. RESERVOIR AGREEMENT WITH HILLSBOROUGH r Gounty Manager John M. Link, Jr. presented for Board discussion a revised draft of an agreement for development of a raw water reservoir on Seven Mile Creek. He briefly reviewed the draft agreement. He stressed that they are approaching this by using the Capacity Use Agreement as a chief component of how the water is used in the future. Commissioner Hartwell suggested that paragraph four state that the $1,000,000 be designated for acquisition of reservoir Iand instead of development of a reservoir. HE also suggested that in paragraph six the words "does and will specified" be deleted and the words "does and will continue to specify" be added. He feels the agreement is a realistic one and one in which the County is taking leadership. Commissioner Halkiotis asked about the limitation on out-of-basin transfers. Commissioner Marshall asked how the County would be assured that once Orange-Alamance has the water and the customer base they will indeed abide by this agreement and build their new supply. Paul Thames explained that there are some long standing agreements that would apply in this kind of situation. Commissioner Marshall questioned the length of time it would take Hillsborough to repay the County for the land purchased for the reservoir, stating it will take a lat of years to repay this money. She asked if there was any way to assure that the County does not lose the ability to enforce those old documents. County Engineer Faul Thames explained that the Town of Hillsborough has emergency water sales agreements with both OWASA and Orange-Alamance and that these agreements work both ways. That is, Hillsborough will sell water to Orange-
