Greene Tract Reimbursement <br /> Schedule and Payment History for <br /> 104 Jointly Owned Acres <br /> PURPOSE: To provide historical information and discuss options for the 104 acres Greene <br /> Tract jointly owned by Orange County, Chapel Hill, and Carrboro. <br /> BACKGROUND: The Greene Tract (164 acres) was acquired in 1984 for $608,000 and came <br /> to Orange County as an asset in the Solid Waste Fund. As a result of the Inter Local <br /> Agreement, 60 acres of the Greene Tract was conveyed to Orange County for "Solid Waste <br /> management purposes". The Inter Local Agreement (amended April 12, 2000) provided for the <br /> three owning partners to determine, over a two-year period, the ultimate disposition of the <br /> remaining 104 jointly held acres. Attachment A provides a history of the Greene Tract from 1999 <br /> through 2008. Attachment B provides information regarding the last action taken by the Board <br /> of County Commissioners (BOCC) on December 10, 2002. Although there has considerable <br /> discussion about the future of the Greene Tract, no action has been taken by the BOCC since <br /> 2002. <br /> A Greene Tract Work Group that included representatives of all parties to the Inter Local <br /> Agreement began meeting in 2001 and presented Recommendations on March 21, 2002. A <br /> Greene Tract Work Group Resolution, making recommendation on the 104 acres jointly owned <br /> by Orange County, Chapel Hill and Carrboro, was approved by the BOCC on December 10, <br /> 2002 (see Attachment B —Abstract and Resolution). The remaining 60 acres of the Green Tract <br /> continues to be owned as an asset in the Solid Waste Fund. <br /> Over the past twelve years there have been many options discussed as to possible future uses <br /> of the 104 acres jointly owned by Orange County, Chapel Hill and Carrboro. Listed below are <br /> the options that have been explored: <br />
