situation, and he encourages the Board to move forward to make sure this can happen for the <br /> Rogers Road Community. <br /> Carrboro Alderman Michelle Johnson arrived at 7:14 pm. <br /> Chair Jacobs said the County attorney has sent a letter to the EPA. He said this letter <br /> can be emailed to the Board of Aldermen. Subsequently copies of the letter were made and <br /> distributed to those in attendance. <br /> Alderman Slade asked for an update regarding the Board's position relative to the task <br /> force recommendations. <br /> Chair Jacobs said the substance of the letter is that the community and municipalities <br /> have worked together to reach a place of agreement. He said it was noted that there has <br /> been no communication from the EPA in 3 months, and the request was that the EPA allow <br /> the Board to move forward with acceptance that an agreement has been reached. <br /> Orange County Staff Attorney James Bryan said the EPA has been contacted, and a <br /> report will come back to the Commissioners. <br /> Alderman Lydia Lavelle noted that the bid for the center came in over budget, and it is <br /> being re-bid. She asked for more information on this. <br /> Michael Talbert said the size and scope of the project has not changed; however the <br /> materials and some of the means of construction have changed. <br /> Alderman Lavelle asked if these changes will bring it closer to the budget amount. <br /> Michael Talbert said he is certain it will come much closer. <br /> Alderman Lavelle said she was part of the area that was annexed to Carrboro <br /> previously, and the price was $2000 for each sewer hook-up. She noted that Carrboro has <br /> already committed this amount to be paid for residents in their jurisdiction. <br /> Commissioner Rich asked how many homes are involved in the $2,000 per house <br /> hookup. <br /> Lydia Lavelle said the manager would have to be asked this question. She said her <br /> guess would be around 120. She said only a few of these are Rogers Road. <br /> Commissioner Price said she is optimistic that one of these plans can be chosen to get <br /> the sewer line in place. She said it is important to provide the hook up from the sewer line to <br /> the home, and the current estimates to the County are well over $2,000. She said most <br /> people will not be able to support this. She said her concern is how to make sure these lines <br /> are used once they are installed. <br /> Commissioner Dorosin stated he had a couple of suggestions regarding the letter sent <br /> to the EPA. He feels there is more that can be done. He said the letter concludes with three <br /> proposals to the EPA, and he reviewed these. <br /> Commissioner Dorosin said he feels it would be more helpful to encourage the EPA <br /> toward the second proposal of allowing this to move forward. He suggested the Board <br /> provide more detail about what the Task Force has done and the position of the County. <br /> He feels that it would be helpful to provide more specifics regarding the County's <br /> intentions if this complaint were resolved. <br /> He suggested that the Board move forward with discussing the two alternative plans, as <br /> well as the issue of not only putting infrastructure in the ground, but also connecting to <br /> people's homes. He said this discussion could be framed as being subject to the EPA <br /> complaint being resolved, which would prevent the plans from being binding in the event there <br /> is no resolution. <br /> Commissioner Dorosin referred back to his previous proposal for Rogers Road and <br /> suggested the qualifying language regarding the EPA could be added. He said that if the EPA <br /> decided that the County has violated the law, it is a requirement of the Title 6 administrative <br />
