John Link said that the County would have to develop a new plan at that point in time.

There is a <br />supposition that a bond issue will pass and it may not. <br />School Board member Richard Kennedy said that the state bond issue will not increase taxes <br />and if this is not said loud and clear it may not pass because people will not understand. <br />School Board member Delores Simpson said that they know the children are coming and they <br />need to plan now for future growth. <br />School Board member Haverland asked about the alternative school which is being planned <br />jointly by the two school systems and said he feels this is something that needs to be funded. <br />ADJOURNMENT <br />With no further items to be considered, Chair Carey adjourned the meeting. The next regular <br />meeting of the County Commissioners will be held on August 20, 1996 at 7:30 p.m. in the OWASA <br />Community meeting room in Carrboro, North Carolina. <br />Beverly A. Blythe, Clerk <br />Moses Carey, Jr., Chair
