ee. Schools Adequate Public Facilities Ordinance (SAPFOI-Approval of Annual 2007 Report The Board considered approving the 2007 SAPFOTAC Report related to various aspects of Orange County Schools and Chapel Hill-Carrboro City Schools, as outlined in the draft Annual Report of the SAPFO Technical Advisory Committee and the incorporated farms. Commissioner Gordon made reference to the packet and said that there are discrepancies in the report which should be corrected. Building capacities on pages 11-16 do not match up with pages 47-48 and some things an pages 47-48 da not match up. On page 12, the total membership says 1576, but the large sheet says 1580. On the 2006-07 requested capacity, there are also discrepancies. Chair Carey asked if this should be pulled rather than being further discussed tonight. Commissioner Gordon did not have a preference. Chair Carey said to defer this to make changes. Perdita Holtz said that this needs to be certified by the end of June. The Board agreed to defer this item until June 26tH ii. Agricultural Support Enterprises (ASE) The Board considered endorsing concepts, or elements on the Agricultural Support Enterprises project from the May 21, 2007 Joint BOCCIPIanning Board Work Session and authorizing the completion of the project in accordance with the schedule provided. Commissioner Gordon said that she wanted to flag some things far change. On page 3, she would like to add what the County Commissioners are supposed to do far #11. Also, she saw a sawmill included as a land use, and she suggested looking into this further since it is an intense use. She thinks that anything that says "RB" should be flagged, and then discussed with our JPA planning partners before the county proceeds further with any changes in the Rural Buffer. Regarding large-scale rural ventures, she thinks it is important to spell out what kind of well and septic systems are intended. She said that she was pleased that the uses were separated by intensity. On Page 17, under June Advisory Board Circuit, she would like the County Commissioners to be copied on all information regarding this. Commissioner Jacobs said that there are two different sawmills -the first is #14 on page 4, which is incidental to a farm operation, and #54 is a freestanding sawmill, which is way more intense. He thinks that it should be clearer in the title. Commissioner Gordon said that the proposed conditional use process should be managed carefully because the proposed process is very different from what has been done before in Orange County. She wants to find a way to operationalize it so that there is not a lot of uncertainty about the uses; otherwise, people may object later. A motion was made by Commissioner Foushee, seconded by Commissioner Jacobs to authorize the key concepts and elements of the Agricultural Support Enterprises proposal in accordance with the schedule provided as Attachment 2 (with changes as stated above): 1} Begin drafting proposed amendments to the Land use Element to establish support and/or consistency for the program within the Comprehensive Plan as well as proposed amendments to the Zoning Ordinance to a. Establish a list of permitted uses for the program including appropriate application and review processes, b. Establish implementation guidelines, and c. Develop the conditional district zoning review process, for review and comment by the Board of County Commissioners and Planning Board 2} Begin drafting clear performance standards, and 3) Create the ASE Manual for review and comment by Board of County Commissioners, Planning Board, and other County advisory bodies.
