C. Pages 22 and 23 Change lines 37-40 on page 22 and lines 1-25 on page 23 to read as follows: Understood and agreed to and effective as of the date written above, by: Orange County Durham-Chapel Hill-Carrboro Metropolitan Planning Organization Research Triangle Regional Public Transportation Authority A motion was made by Commissioner Gordon, seconded by Commissioner McKee to approve the minutes with the proposed corrections made above. VOTE: UNANIMOUS n. Senior Care of Orange County, Inc. — Revised By-Laws and Lease Agreement The Board considered two actions concerning Senior Care of Orange County, Inc. (SC of OC, Inc.): approval of revised by-laws for Senior Care of Orange County, Inc.; and approval of a resolution authorizing a lease agreement with Senior Care of Orange County, Inc. and authorized the Chair to sign. Commissioner Gordon asked about the by-laws and why it does not say that residents of the facility need to be residents of Orange County. She also asked why it was not more than simple majority on the board of trustees. She asked the Board of County Commissioners if they want to make members in the future be from Orange County, and if they do, then they would ask staff to figure it out. John Roberts said that any changes the Board of County Commissioners wants to make they can make but whatever changes they make to by-laws may not last because this will no longer be an Orange County board. He said they could tie grant funds to some requirements that they only serve Orange County residents or something of that nature. Commissioner Gordon asked if Orange County would have oversight for finances and John Roberts said no. He said that the services they provide and the clientele they have presents a substantial risk to Orange County. This is why this organization is being separated. Commissioner Gordon said that Orange County leases the space to Senior Care of Orange County, Inc., for a dollar. It is a substantial in-kind donation. She said that the value of the lease may be more than the grant funding. Frank Clifton said that the staff is trying to identify those items that are non-direct cash funding so that future budgets will identify those items and what benefits Orange County is providing. Commissioner Gordon asked if the lease agreement could be done if the Board wanted until December 11 th to consider it and John Roberts said yes.
