The owners would like to take advantage of the NC Conservation Tax Credit (expiring December <br /> 31 of this year) by donating an easement along 11 acres which includes a segment of Collins Creek (on the <br /> impaired stream list). The only County costs would be for our share of closing costs (estimated to be under <br /> $2,500). Information about the easement donation is attached. <br /> Upon review with the Manager, Chair and Vice-Chair, there are no expected closed session items on <br /> December 2. Since action to accept the easement will be needed at the December 10 meeting, we are <br /> writing to advise you of this agenda item and ask if this needs to go to closed session for discussion and <br /> review on December 2, or if the attached information is sufficient such that we may go ahead and place it on <br /> the December 10 agenda for action. In other words, since this is a small donation with very little expenditure <br /> of funds, and there are no other December 2 closed session items, is the Board comfortable with not holding <br /> a closed session discussion of this easement donation on December 2, and placing it on December 10 for <br /> action? <br /> file:///SI/...%20Chair%2OLetter%2ORegarding%2OPetitions%20from%2ODecember%202,%202013%2ORegular%2OBoard%2OMeeting.htm[12/4/2013 10:18:05 AM] <br />
