The members of the Capital Needs Task Force were <br />commended for giving their time and effort to this project. <br />Commissioner Carey presented a plan for the bond package in which he tried to incorporate as much <br />of the recommendation as he could and reduce the size of the bond package. Totals for each category are <br />listed below: <br />Chapel Hill/Carrboro Schools $ 24,737,720 <br />Orange County Schools $ 12,262,280 <br />Parks $ 3,900,000 <br />Senior Centers $ 2,112,500 <br />Efland Sewer Expansion $ 1,200,000 <br />Renovations - Whitted Human Services Center $ 1,000,000 <br />Renovations - Northern Human Services Center $ 1,000,000 <br />TOTAL BOND PACKAGE $ 46,212,500 <br />Commissioner Carey summarized the differences between his recommendation and the <br />recommendation from the Task Force. <br />Commissioner Halkiotis said that as a member of the Task Force, he respects all the work put into <br />their recommendation and therefore endorses the $61 million amount for the bond issue. He feels this <br />clearly will meet the needs of both school systems and other identified County needs. <br />Commissioner Carey asked for additional information on what would be included in the renovations to <br />48 the Whitted Human Services Center and the Northern Center. <br />49 <br />50 The County Commissioners discussed capacity figures for East Chapel Hill High School. The <br />51 capacity at the present time is 1,020 and the enrollment is 629 this year with an expected enrollment for <br />52 1997-98 of 816. <br />53 <br />54 It was noted that the developers of Meadowmont have agreed to give to the school system an <br />55 additional six acres for a middle school. Chapel Hill-Carrboro City School Board members indicated they <br />56 plan to meet with the developers next Thursday to finalize that offer.
