5. To instruct the manager to prepare CDBG application for submission by the May 1 st <br /> deadline. <br /> This motion changed bullet number 3 of the Manager's recommendation, as shown <br /> above, and added bullet#5. <br /> Commissioner Rich asked why the Board would eliminate the Jackson Center from the <br /> motion if the task force has identified and voted for them. <br /> Commissioner Dorosin said he is not eliminating them, but he thinks RENA should be <br /> the party to select the organizations. He said the Jackson Center could be one of those. <br /> Commissioner Rich asked how this affects the $50,000 that was already approved by <br /> Chapel Hill for the Jackson Center participation. <br /> Commissioner Dorosin said Carrboro did not approve that $50,000. <br /> Michael Talbert said if the motion is approved as stated, it would have to go back to <br /> Chapel Hill and Carrboro before it proceeds. <br /> Commissioner Gordon said she would like to amend item #3 in the motion to read as it <br /> was stated in the original recommendation. <br /> Commissioner Dorosin said he does not accept this. <br /> Michael Talbert said the resolution from the town is on page 25, and it does not specify <br /> the Jackson Center. <br /> Commissioner Gordon said she would like to restore the language in bullet#3, and she <br /> proposed a substitute motion to include this language. She noted that this will prevent the <br /> other jurisdictions from having to revisit it. <br /> Commissioner McKee seconded. <br /> Commissioner Rich questioned whether this would have to go back to Chapel Hill if <br /> Commissioner Dorosin's motion is approved. <br /> Michael Talbert said it would still have to go back to Carrboro, because they have not <br /> given approval yet. He said Carrboro wants to make sure RENA is involved in the decisions, <br /> and he said the resolution from Chapel Hill does not exclude RENA. <br /> Commissioner Rich reviewed the verbiage regarding partnerships and said Orange <br /> County would be negotiating with RENA or the Jackson Center. <br /> Michael Talbert said yes and other parties also. <br /> VOTE to include Commissioner Gordon's amendment. <br /> Ayes, 3 (Commissioner McKee, Commissioner Gordon, Commissioner Rich); Nays, 4 (Chair <br /> Jacobs, Commissioner Pelissier, Commissioner Price, Commissioner Dorosin). <br /> Motion fails <br /> Commissioner Gordon asked for a review of the motion. <br /> Chair Jacobs reviewed the following motion: <br /> 1.
