0 <br />3. That the Task Force prefers the original Sewer Concept Plan presented by OWASA in 2012 <br />to serve 86 parcels at an estimated cost of $5.8 million. First this concept will provide sewer <br />improvements to the entire Historic Rogers Road Neighborhood, secondly, this proposal will <br />enable all of the partners, Orange County, the Town of Chapel Hill, and The Town of <br />Carrboro, to equally share the costs of the Community Center and Sewer Improvements in <br />proportion to their responsibilities. If either the Orange County Board of Commissioners or <br />the Chapel Hill Town Council do not favor the original Sewer Concept Plan presented by <br />OWASA in 2012 or cannot agree on the concept of an ETJ for the Historic Rogers Road <br />Neighborhood, the Sewer Concept Plan presented by OWASA in 2012 including only <br />segments 5, 6, and 8 to serve 67 parcels at an estimated cost of $3.7 million should be <br />funded. <br />4.
