NCGS 143-318.11(a) (6) • Discussion and Approval of the Items Removed from the Consent Agenda • e. Resolution for the Naminq of the Roqers Road Community Center The Board considered approving and authorizing the Chair to sign a resolution on behalf of the Board for the official name of the facility to be the "Rogers Road Community Center" consistent with the County Property Naming Policy. Commissioner Rich said the Board has discussed the plaques placed on new buildings, and she would like to make sure the architect of this building is recognized on the plaque. Commissioner Rich said it came out at one of the original Rogers Road meetings that the towns were interested in supporting the community center by paying a portion of the final cost. She asked what the process would be to get the funding, since the towns wanted to be a part of this. She said if this funding is provided, she would also like to know if the towns will be named on the plaque. Jeff Thompson said the Board adopted a policy that states that the architect will be named on the plaque, and that the plaque would come back to the Commissioners for approval of design and layout. He said this will be brought forward in the coming weeks. Bonnie Hammersley said she did have a conversation with the Chapel Hill manager, who said that since the town could not contribute to the provision of sewer, they would be willing to put some money toward the community center. She said that is the only context in which she heard about this. She has not heard anything from Carrboro. John Roberts said Chapel Hill had indicated, since at that time it could not contribute to the sewer, it would increase the amount of contribution to the community center. He said the town has now extended their extraterritorial jurisdiction (ETJ), and indicated that if this happened they would also contribute to the sewer. He said, at the manager's recommendation, he was holding up the inter-local agreement until after the ETJ vote. Bonnie Hammersley said she would contact the town managers about this. . Commissioner Rich said she feels there are two separate issues. She said the sewer may take more time, and she does not want to wait on getting the funding for the community
