21 <br /> 1 attended school. The chart indicates that there was an overestimation of students in the <br /> 2 CHCCS for elementary, middle and high schools, but on page 30 of the SAPFO report, it says <br /> 3 that the actual number of students was underestimated by the same numbers. She asked that <br /> 4 this be corrected to "underestimated" in the Executive Summary. The numbers for the OCS <br /> 5 also need to be corrected in the Executive Summary. As shown in the SAPFO report, there <br /> 6 were two cases where the number of actual students was overestimated (elementary and <br /> 7 middle school) and one case where the number was underestimated (high school). However, <br /> 8 these numbers are also stated incorrectly in the Executive Summary. <br /> 9 Craig Benedict said that he would check the numbers and correct the information as <br /> 10 needed. <br /> 11 Commissioner Yuhasz asked about the number of approved but undeveloped <br /> 12 subdivisions. Craig Benedict said that he can try and come up with some percentages. <br /> 13 Commissioner Hemminger said that the County Commissioners heard that OCS may <br /> 14 need another elementary school in the next two to three years, but on page 11, it shows that <br /> 15 there are still 346 seats available in elementary school. She said that some schools are over- <br /> 16 capacity and some are under-capacity, so it looks like there may need to be a redistricting. <br /> 17 Craig Benedict said that these are certified capacity numbers from the Department of <br /> 18 Public Instruction agreed to by all parties, and if there are changes, then the document will <br /> 19 change. <br /> 20 A motion was made by Commissioner Hemminger, seconded by Commissioner <br /> 21 Foushee to receive the 2012 SAPFOTAC Annual Report with changes; authorize the Chair to <br /> 22 sign the transmittal letter to SAPFO partners contained in Attachment 1 (the Mayors or Chapel <br /> 23 Hill, Carrboro and Hillsborough and the two School Board Chairs—OCS and CHCCS). <br /> 24 VOTE: UNANIMOUS <br /> 25 <br /> 26 9. Reports <br /> 27 a. Orange County Transit Plan Timeline Update <br /> 28 The Board reviewed and acknowledged a draft timeline for the Orange County Transit <br /> 29 Plan (OCTP) and associated elements. <br /> 30 Craig Benedict said that the staff has been examining what work needs to be done <br /> 31 before moving forward with the adoption of the Orange County Transit Plan (OCTP). If Orange <br /> 32 County is to pursue the implementation of the 2009 Mobility Bill transit one-half cent sales tax, <br /> 33 various aspects needs to be discussed and implemented. Basically, the following elements are <br /> 34 required: <br /> 35 <br /> 36 - Orange County/Durham County Light Rail Transit (LRT) Cost Sharing Memorandum <br /> 37 of Understanding <br /> 38 - OCTP and its internal assumptions <br /> 39 o Share of LRT <br /> 40 o Intra-county and Inter-county Bus Services <br /> 41 o Bus Rapid Transit (Martin Luther King Corridor) <br /> 42 o Small Capital <br /> 43 - Orange County/Triangle Transit OCTP Implementing Agreement <br /> 44 - Referendum decision on one-half(1/2) cent transit sales tax <br /> 45 <br /> 46 Craig Benedict went through the timeline, which was in the agenda abstract. <br /> 47 <br /> 48 Commissioner Gordon said that they need to add on March 22nd that the Board of <br /> 49 County Commissioners will discuss the Draft Alternate Transit Plan that relies only on local <br /> 50 funding. This needs to be done before it goes to public input. <br />
