BACKGROUND: On June 2, 2004, the Board approved amendments to the agreement governing the use of the Smith Middle School Soccer Fields. The Carrboro Board of Aldermen approved the same amendments on June 15, 2004. In moving forward with the project, clarification has been made as to the preferred arrangement for control of the lights at the fields. This electrical design will allow separate controls and metering of the two fields. The proposed plan requires removal of one sentence in the agreement. The sentence in question follows and is included in the attached summary sheet: Page 6, paragraph 4. (a) last sentence (to be removed): "The Board Of Education may use the light system, provided that the Board of Education shall document its time of usage and, if the Board of Education uses the light system for more than ten (10) hours per year, the Board of Education shall contribute toward the annual maintenance and repair costs in proportion to its use of the lights." FINANCIAL IMPACT: None RECOMMENDATION(S): The Manager recommends that the Board adopt the proposed amendment to the agreement.
