Beginning last year, <br /> the Orange County Transportation Improvement Process <br /> included a meeting between the BOCC' s Transportation <br /> Representative and the N.C. Board of Transportation (BOT) <br /> member for Orange County to discuss transportation <br /> improvements . This meeting proved very productive and a <br /> similar meeting is recommended for this year. <br /> RECOMMENDATION: The Administration recommends that the Board identify <br /> possible needs for inclusion in the Non-TIP list and then <br /> request a meeting be scheduled with Orange County' s BOT <br /> member to discuss the list. <br />
