Frank Clifton said that the green area on the map is being reserved as a storage area. <br /> The other property will still be reserved for some future use. Triangle Transit is considering <br /> using it as a commuter ride share lot. The Town has not decided what to do with this site at <br /> this time. <br /> Commissioner Jacobs said that it could be left as green, which indicates that it is still <br /> Hillsborough's. <br /> Commissioner Jacobs said that his bigger concern is the part on page 8 and the <br /> "wooded area." He said that there were considerable discussions about what part of that area <br /> to protect because of the mature hardwoods, and Hillsborough agreed not to put a meeting <br /> room there. <br /> David Stancil said that the wooded area is part of County property that ties into the <br /> public works. <br /> Commissioner Jacobs said that it would be useful to define what area is to be <br /> preserved and that should be part of the agreement to, "define, manage, and preserve the <br /> hardwood forest that is designated on the map at the southeastern corner of the Park Master <br /> Plan." <br /> Dave Stancil said that the intention is that this would remain wooded. Commissioner <br /> Jacobs would like to memorialize this area to make sure that it remains wooded. <br /> Commissioner Gordon asked more clarifying questions about the operating costs, <br /> which were answered by staff. This amount is unknown and will be better known in about one <br /> year. <br /> A motion was made by Commissioner Hemminger, seconded by Commissioner Jacobs <br /> to adopt the Interlocal Agreement, as amended. <br /> VOTE: Ayes, 6; No, 1 (Commissioner Pelissier) <br /> Frank Clifton said that the County just participated in an agreement with Chapel Hill for <br /> almost$700,000 towards soccer field renovations. <br /> c.
