Budget Amendment #14 <br />The Board considered approving the budget ordinance and capital project ordinance <br />amendments for fiscal year 2004-05. <br />Commissioner Gordon made reference to attachment one, which is a table of the <br />proposed 2004-05 Orange County Budget Ordinance amendments. She does not think the <br />County Commissioners have addressed #15 as a policy. Amendment # 15 is an action related <br />to the School/Park Capital Reserve Fund, and approval of this action would transfer accrued <br />interest earnings, which are not programmed for expenditure from the reserve fund to the <br />general fund.. She asked that this be removed from this action and be put on the capital work <br />session agenda. <br />John Link said that the intent is not to permanently remove funding, but to move the money into <br />the general fund balance prior to June 30th because it helps the fund balance picture at that <br />point. It will be returned in the fall. <br />Rod Visser said that they are trying to solidify the fund balance as much as possible to <br />improve the financial position for the bond rating. <br />A motion was made by Commissioner Jacobs, seconded by Commissioner Halkiotis to <br />approve the budget ordinance and capital project ordinance amendments for the 15 items as <br />listed on the agenda abstract, with an added #16 (purple sheet). <br />VOTE: UNANIMOUS <br />o. Approve Updating the Master Aging Plan (M.A.P.) for Years 2006-2010 <br />The Board considered approving the updated 5-year Master Aging Plan from 2006 to <br />2010 and the advertisement/recruitment of M.A.P. Task Force members. <br />Commissioner Jacobs thanked Advisory Board on Aging Chair Jack Chestnut for his <br />letter written to UNC. He asked Department on Aging Director Jerry Passmore to summarize <br />what UNC Hospitals is doing to services that were previously shared with the County. <br />Jerry Passmore said that this process has been going on for many years and UNC has <br />picked up the coordinating position and Orange County has not been contributing to this until <br />this year. UNC Hospitals is asking the County to put in for half of the position. They are still <br />committed. to this program. <br />Commissioner Jacobs said that part of the thrust of the letter was that UNC has a <br />commitment for a wellness program for seniors. <br />Commissioner Jacobs said that this could be on the list of things that the County is <br />picking up funding where others are dropping it. <br />A motion was made by Commissioner Jacobs, seconded by Commissioner Gordon to <br />approve the updating of the Master Aging Plan for years 2006-2010 and beginning the <br />recruitment of M.A.P. Task Force Members. <br />VOTE: UNANIMOUS <br />~ Petition for Addition of High Ridge Road and Rolling Meadow Drive to the NC <br />Secondary Road System <br />The Board considered a petition to add two subdivision roads, High Ridge Road and <br />Rolling Meadow Drive to the state-maintained Secondary Road System. <br />Commissioner Jacobs said that he wanted to pull this off so he could vote against it. <br />A motion was made by Chair Carey, seconded by Commissioner Halkiotis to approve <br />the request to add High Ridge Road and Rolling Meadow Drive to the State Secondary Road <br />System. <br />VOTE: Ayes, 4; No, 1 (Commissioner Jacobs) <br />6.
