John Link said that in talking to Associate Chancellor Bruce Runberg about the University's timetable far repairing the area around the airport, their consultant has not yet indicated whether or not the circumference of the impingement is going to be 360 feet or 500 feet. If it is 360 feet, then the animal shelter is outside of that circumference and that would be good. If it were 500 feet, then the animal shelter would have to be prepared to vacate in the fall of 2007. According to the timeline, the County would not even be halfway there by fall of 2007. Most of the time period is required for the anticipated process of the Town of Chapel Hill's approval. The actual construction time is 12 months. They will be discussing with the University about how to expand the window of time. He said that they need to move quickly. Chair Jacobs said that they need an outline of an advisory board to design the shelter by June 27t". This could be the Animal Services Advisory Board. Commissioner Halkiotis said that this is a wonderful opportunity to speed things up and move forward. b. Dental Clinic Commissioner Halkiotis said that they should have put this in the Southern Human Services Center when it was built. John Link said that the idea is to put the dental clinic behind the Southern Human Services Center. Purchasing and Central Services Director Pam Jones said that they would be saving $108,000 a year on rent at Carr Mill Mall. This could ga towards the debt service of the clinic itself as it is being built. Commissioner Halkiotis spoke in support of this Commissioner Carey asked about incorporating this into the debt service and Budget Director Donna Dean-Coffey said that they would come back in August with reconfigured debt service figures. Commissioner Gordon said that before then they need the debt issuance schedules distributed by the Budget Director since the one the BOCC adopted in 2004. Rod Uisser said that they could take the most recent multi-colored charts and update them with the actions the Board has taken up to this point. Commissioner Gordon said that they need to bring back 10-25-04 and 1-20-06 debt issuance schedule. John Link said that there are additional items since then, so they need to speak to those. Finance Director Ken Chaviaus said that they plan to meet with the LGC in July to lay out these plans and get comments before moving forward. This eases the process of applications for debt. Chair Jacobs said that they want to see the dental clinic in the CIP. It would also be useful for Rosemary Summers to work on a ballpark estimate of the dental clinic. c, Eno Fire Station Community Room John Link said that as the Eno Fire District is building its new station on the corner of St. Mary's Road and Pleasant Green Road, the staff has talked to them and they are open to the County participating in the community room there. The County's participating would allow this room to have community use such as a polling place. This is an area of growth in the County. The building cost would be $800,000 to $1 million for
