16 Affordable Housing 16. Affordable Housing $1,800,000 • Several local organizations produce about 20 units per year: Orange Community Housing, Habitat for Humanity, Knolls Development. • Subsidies of $10-20,000 per year would increase affordability for between 50 to 100 home buyers over a 4 to 5 year period • Local funds of between $500,000 and $800,000 would be needed to assist 50 families to have affordable rental opportunity, or $10,000 to $16,000 per unit. Efland Sewer 17. Expansion of Efland Sewer $1,200,000 • Current system serves approximately 125 residential accounts and 6 non-residential accounts • Two largest sewer generators are Efland Cheeks Elementary School and Hancor Manufacturing • System that would have served areas of the Efland sewer system mater plan designated as Phase II and the eastern portion of Phase I were not constructed during the original 1987- 88 construction primarily because of insufficient funds • Estimated expansion would provide sewer service to 81 existing single family homes, 3 churches and 12 non-residential units. County Buildings 18. Renovations to Whitted Human Services Center $1,000,000 19. Renovations to Northern Human Services Center $1,000,000 • Renovations to these facilities were originally included in the County Capital Improvements Plan (CIP). With the funding plan approved by the Board of Commissioners for a no tax increase bond referendum, additional bond funds were necessary to make up "lost" funds for County projects. This $2 million is included to hold County projects "harmless" in changes in the funding formula for capital projects. • Renovations include HVAC replacement, major roof replacement, energy retrofitting and general improvements. • Both of these facilities are old schools that have been adapted for different use. 14
