attended school. The chart indicates that there was an overestimation of students in the <br /> CHCCS for elementary, middle and high schools, but on page 30 of the SAPFO report, it says <br /> that the actual number of students was underestimated by the same numbers. She asked that <br /> this be corrected to "underestimated" in the Executive Summary. The numbers for the OCS <br /> also need to be corrected in the Executive Summary. As shown in the SAPFO report, there <br /> were finro cases where the number of actual students was overestimated (elementary and <br /> middle school) and one case where the number was underestimated (high school). However, <br /> these numbers are also stated incorrectly in the Executive Summary. <br /> Craig Benedict said that he would check the numbers and correct the information as <br /> needed. <br /> Commissioner Yuhasz asked about the number of approved but undeveloped <br /> subdivisions. Craig Benedict said that he can try and come up with some percentages. <br /> Commissioner Hemminger said that the County Commissioners heard that OCS may <br /> need another elementary school in the next two to three years, but on page 11, it shows that <br /> there are still 346 seats available in elementary school. She said that some schools are over- <br /> capacity and some are under-capacity, so it looks like there may need to be a redistricting. <br /> Craig Benedict said that these are certified capacity numbers from the Department of <br /> Public Instruction agreed to by all parties, and if there are changes, then the document will <br /> change. <br /> A motion was made by Commissioner Hemminger, seconded by Commissioner <br /> Foushee to receive the 2012 SAPFOTAC Annual Report with changes; authorize the Chair to <br /> sign the transmittal letter to SAPFO partners contained in Attachment 1 (the Mayors or Chapel <br /> Hill, Carrboro and Hillsborough and the two School Board Chairs— OCS and CHCCS). <br /> VOTE: UNANIMOUS <br /> 9.

Oranqe Countv Transit Plan Timeline Update <br /> The Board reviewed and acknowledged a draft timeline for the Orange County Transit <br /> Plan (OCTP) and associated elements. <br /> Craig Benedict said that the staff has been examining what work needs to be done <br /> before moving forward with the adoption of the Orange County Transit Plan (OCTP). If Orange <br /> County is to pursue the implementation of the 2009 Mobility Bill transit one-half cent sales tax, <br /> various aspects needs to be discussed and implemented. Basically, the following elements are <br /> required: ', <br /> - Orange County/Durham County Light Rail Transit (LRT) Cost Sharing Memorandum ' <br /> of Understanding <br /> - OCTP and its internal assumptions <br /> o Share of LRT <br /> o Intra-county and Inter-county Bus Services <br /> o Bus Rapid Transit (Martin Luther King Corridor) <br /> o Small Capital <br /> - Orange County/Triangle Transit OCTP Implementing Agreement <br /> - Referendum decision on one-half (1/2) cent transit sales tax <br /> Craig Benedict went through the timeline, which was in the agenda abstract. <br /> Commissioner Gordon said that they need to add on March 22"d that the Board of <br /> County Commissioners will discuss the Draft Alternate Transit Plan that relies only on local <br /> funding.
