Commissioner Gordon said she thought they should leave in the $400,000 for Southern <br /> Human Services site planning. <br /> Michael Talbert explained how planning money might be used and gave an example of <br /> perhaps moving a road later if needed because the Seymour Center site expansion <br /> would be constrained by the existing road. He said planning for infrastructure would <br /> give them flexibility for the future. <br /> Paul Laughton noted there is no funding included at this point for the affordable <br /> housing impact fee reimbursement. That is something they look at every year—there <br /> is $170,000 in the current year. He will be meeting with Tara Fikes on this, so the <br /> Board might see a change on this when the CIP is presented on March 11. <br /> Paul Laughton explained in more detail the allocations to Special Revenue Fund <br /> projects on page 10 of the retreat agenda packets. He said to date the County has <br /> collected about $4.2 million in Article 46 sales tax revenue and spent about $1.1 million <br /> for schools and economic development. CHCCS has their funding going to technology <br /> and repairs identified in their assessment of older facility needs. OCS has allocated its <br /> funds for their One to One initiative for laptops. Total Article 46 funding budgeted for <br /> 2014-15 is about $2.7 million. Paul thinks staff may need to come back to the Board at <br /> some point to reconsider the percentages allocated to make sure there are enough <br /> allocations to cover debt service. <br /> Commissioner Dorosin inquired about the small business investment grant line item and <br /> how that differs from incentives. <br /> Commissioner McKee says there will be a meeting next week— he will get a printout <br /> regarding what has been going on. Paul Laughton said nothing has been spent on <br /> business investment grants and no Article 46 funds have been spent for small business <br /> loans either. Paul will get the definitions of these to Commissioner Dorosin. <br /> Given time constraints for this agenda item, the Board agreed to go through the rest of <br /> capital projects by exception, dealing only with projects about which they have <br /> questions <br /> In response to a question from Commissioner Price, Chair Jacobs explained how the <br /> Board had adopted a policy based on recommendations from Economic Development <br /> Director Steve Brantley about how Article 46 proceeds might be divided up into various <br /> pots. Paul Laughton cited various percentages or percentage ranges approved by the <br /> Board, with the largest being 60% allocated for debt service. <br /> Commissioner Rich asked what, if any, are the procedures for having a long term plan <br /> for solid waste. It seemed that they discuss solid waste on an ad hoc basis, a little bit <br /> at a time. She said they will do an injustice financially to the County if they don't think <br /> about it long term. <br /> Paul Laughton said each area has a breakdown each year where improvements are to <br /> be and the funding allocated, for example for solid waste convenience center <br /> improvements. The Sanitation portion has a good plan for improvements, for example <br /> for large pieces of equipment. Recycling improvements depend on policy decisions <br /> remaining to be made. <br /> Commissioner Rich said she is thinking about the future and different ways to handle <br /> trash. <br />
