1C <br /> Concept Plan presented by OWASA in 2012 including only segments 5, 6, and 8 to <br /> serve 67 parcels at an estimated cost of$3.7 million should be funded. <br /> 4. That the county petition the Town of Chapel Hill to annex all County Owned Property <br /> in the Historic Rogers Road Neighborhood. <br /> 5. That the Task Force requests that the Managers explore the collaborative approach <br /> to the Historic Rogers Road Neighborhood as outlined in February 25, 2013 Memo to <br /> Elected Officials (Appendix C) and report back to the Task Force on August 21, <br /> 2013. <br /> 6. That the Managers meet and talk about the options related to connecting the <br /> residents of the Historic Rogers Road Neighborhood to sewer. <br /> 7. That funding is identified for the cost of connecting from the OWASA infrastructure to <br /> the home in addition to applying for grants for low-to-moderate income persons.

On February 8, 2011 OWASA provided an updated concept plan and cost <br /> estimate, for the Rogers Road Small Area Plan Study Area for $3.4 million. This early <br /> concept plan was completed based on the Chapel Hill Small Area Plan which is a <br /> geographically different area than the Historic Rogers Road Neighborhood sewer <br /> concept. There is also some difference in routing some of the main outfalls.

Most importantly, <br /> in the earlier estimates neither the availabilities fees was included nor the cost of <br /> extending a lateral from the main line to the properties. <br /> OWASA provided a concept plan, layout, and cost estimate for providing sewer service <br /> to the area that was delineated by the Rogers Road Neighborhood Task Force at the <br /> April 30, 2012 meeting.
