This work must be completed during the summer when students are <br /> not in session. <br /> To meet this tight time frame, the Chapel Hill/Carrboro City School Board must approve <br /> the bid for completion of the work in early June. Since the School Board may not award <br /> the bid until funds are committed, the Chapel Hill/Carrboro City Schools staff is <br /> requesting that the Board of Commissioners approve the capital project ordinance <br /> appropriating $540,000 as of July 1, 1997. The actual funds will be appropriated in the <br /> 1997-98 budget. <br /> The Chapel Hill/Carrboro City Schools also requested funds from the 1997-98 recurring <br /> capital budget. However, in discussing this request with the Chapel Hill/Carrboro City <br /> Schools finance officer, the Schools will be able to pay the $200,000 needed for the <br /> Chapel Hill High School roofing project from existing fund balance. <br />
