5 <br /> ORANGE COUNTY <br /> { t, <br /> Department of Environment, <br /> Agriculture,Parks&Recreation <br /> November 18, 2013 <br /> Donna Baker <br /> Clerk to the Board of County Commissioners <br /> 200 South Cameron Street <br /> Hillsborough, NC 27278 <br /> Dear Ms. Baker: <br /> The Orange County Agricultural Preservation Board (APB) seeks to update its <br /> membership roster. The term of one of the board's at-large members, Patrick <br /> McGarry, has expired and is now available to be filled. <br /> The APB wishes to recommend the appointment of Noah Ranells to serve in Mr. <br /> McGarry's at-large position. Mr. Ranells has an exceptional and diverse background <br /> in agriculture, both professionally and personally as the owner of a working farm in <br /> Orange County. <br /> The APB recognizes that it also has a second expired at-large position. The board I' <br /> intends to recommend the member now in that seat for one of the vacant VAD district <br /> positions in the near future, pending the decision of that member regarding continued <br /> service on this board. <br /> Members of the APB are actively working to identify qualified new applicants who <br /> own farms that have been enrolled recently in the VAD program and are located <br /> within the three VAD districts where there are now district member vacancies. The <br /> board will forward recommendations for those district slots as soon as possible. <br /> Thank you for your assistance. <br /> Si erely, <br /> P ter Sandbeck, Cultural Resources Coordinator <br /> cc: Kim Woods, Co-Chair, Agricultural Preservation Board <br /> Howard McAdams, Co-Chair, Agricultural Preservation Board <br /> David Stancil, Directo r, Orange C aunty DEAP R <br /> NI U A{ amd CULTURAL i`,IE° ryd °&€ II <br /> 1 h <br /> Orange County Department of Environment Agriculture, Parks &Recreation <br /> Po Box 8181, Hillsborough, NC 27278 <br /> Phone: (919) 245-2510 Fax:(919) 844-3351 <br />
