In accordance with the <br />SAPFO Memoranda of Understanding (MOU), the Board of County Commissioners (BOCC) approved the <br />November 14, 2014 actual membership and capacity numbers for Orange County Schools and Chapel Hill — <br />Carrboro City Schools at its meeting on December 1, 2014. <br />The SAPFOTAC, comprised of representatives of both school systems and the Planning Directors of the County <br />and Towns has produced the 2015 Annual Report. As per the SAPFO MOU, the annual technical report <br />contains information on Level of Service, Building Capacity, Membership Date, Capital Investment Plan, <br />Student Membership Projection Methodology, Student Membership Projections, Student Membership Growth <br />Rate, Student /Housing Generation Rate, and the SAPFO Process. Enclosed for your use are copies of the 2015 <br />Executive Summary and the March 17, 2015 BOCC meeting agenda item abstract when the BOCC received the <br />draft report. <br />Last year, Orange County entered into a contract with TischlerBise to update the student generation rate <br />analysis after concerns with existing rates were identified by SAPFOTAC committee members. The new <br />student generation rates are included in Attachment II.E.1 on page 44 of the report and are being recommended <br />for adoption by the BOCC as the standard for the SAPFO and CAPS system. The process outlined in the <br />SAPFO MOU to update student generation rates as they pertain to the SAPFO process has been followed. <br />
