Request Chapel Hill to reserve a school site in the Meadowmont development. <br /> SCHOOL FACILITY CONSTRUCTION AND UTILIZATION <br /> 6. Request Chapel Hill-Can-boro schools to consider implementing a multi-track, year-around <br /> school program as an interim measure to reduce classroom size. <br /> 7. Develop uniform school building construction standards. <br /> DESIGNATED PROPERTY TAX FOR SCHOOL FACILITIES <br /> 8. The 1988 school bonds and impact fees notwithstanding, additional funds are required to meet <br /> the immediate capital needs. I would suggest assessing a 5-cent property tax, beginning with <br /> the 1995-96 budget. The tax, to be designated for school capital projects, should raise $2.35 <br /> M/year. I would further suggest that first priority for this designated fund be the acquisition of <br /> future school sites. Note: if sites are reserved in land use plans, we must be ready to act when <br /> these sites are offered for development. <br />
