A sliding scale for impact fees should be devised, in order to more <br /> equitably distribute the costs of new schools among the new development, <br /> while addressing concerns about affordable housing. <br /> 3. Impact fees in the CH/Carrboro District should be calculated sevar, ately form <br /> the Orange County District. <br /> 4. Impact fees should be reasonable and substantial, <br /> 5. All sources of revenue for new schools should be considered: general taxes, <br /> the special district school tax, certificates of participation, bonding, and impact <br /> fees. <br /> W hat you can do: <br /> Call or write the Orange County Commissioners, and urge them <br /> 1. to raise the impact fee, and <br /> 2. to vigorously seek additional ways to ensure that school construction keeps <br /> pace with residential development. <br /> ORANGE COUNTY COMMISSIONERS <br /> Moses Carey(D,1996),Chair Stephen Halklotls(D,1998)Vice Chair <br /> 901 Lystra Lane CH 27516 '1007 Panther Court HB 27278 <br /> 929-8513(H);933-8494(VII) 644-6863(H)732-2017(W) <br /> WHHam L Crowther(D,1998) Don WBihoit(D,1996) <br /> 372 SL Mary's Rd HB 27278 203 Lpd*w Rd CH 27516 <br /> 732-7537(H);732-6886(V) -942-2571 (H):962-5507(VI) <br /> ABU M.Gordon(D,1998) <br /> 282 Edpewood Dr CH 27514 933-0550 <br /> Attend the Commissioner's Public Hearing on impact.fees, Tuesday, <br /> March 21, 1995, 7:30 PM, at the OWASA building on Jones Ferry Rd- in <br /> Carrboro <br />
