4 <br /> 1 Commissioner Rich asked if there has there been any discussions with the Town for a <br /> 2 larger amount of money. <br /> 3 David Stancil said not at this time. <br /> 4 Commissioner Rich said it may be worth having this conversation with the Town once <br /> 5 they know what the County is considering. <br /> 6 David Stancil said he believes that Hillsborough sees the park as a County project. <br /> 7 Commissioner Burroughs said she is not opposed to Commissioner Jacobs' suggestion, <br /> 8 but noted that all Board members have ideas tonight regarding fund allocation. She asked the <br /> 9 Board to keep the many needs and expenses in mind when the topic of revenue sources is <br /> 10 raised later. <br /> 11 Bonnie Hammersley said staff has been meeting with the Town in regards to this Park, <br /> 12 and there were alternative plans discussed; but the County should have been more responsive <br /> 13 to this project. She said the staff will bring something back on June 16tH <br /> 14 <br /> 15 A motion was made by Commissioner Jacobs, seconded by Commissioner Price to set <br /> 16 aside $100,000 in the CIP pending a report back from by staff on Tuesday, June 16th, regarding <br /> 17 a plan to finish the remainder of the master plan for Fairview Park. <br /> 18 <br /> 19 Chair McKee said the Board would be unable to follow up with a motion of intent on the <br /> 20 CIP because this item would be unresolved until Tuesday. <br /> 21 Commissioner Burroughs said she will be voting against this motion due to the process <br /> 22 and her desire to see how much revenue the Board chooses to raise. <br /> 23 Commissioner Rich asked if was necessary to delay the entire vote on the CIP. <br /> 24 Chair McKee said the action the Board was expecting to take would approve intent to <br /> 25 adopt the 2015-2020 CIP. He said Commissioner Jacob's motion would require the Board to <br /> 26 delay the intent motion until June 16th <br /> 27 Commissioner Dorosin said if Commissioner Jacob's motion delays the rest of the CIP, <br /> 28 then he would like to delay the motion. <br /> 29 Chair McKee said passing Commissioner Jacob's motion would take $100,000 off of the <br /> 30 table for tonight's other discussions. <br /> 31 Commissioner Jacobs said there could be a discussion on the rest of the CIP and the <br /> 32 Board can clarify his motion on 6/16. <br /> 33 Commissioner Dorosin said he was in favor of this motion but may not be in favor of <br /> 34 $100,000 at this moment. He suggested holding the motion until the rest of the CIP can be <br /> 35 discussed. <br /> 36 Commissioner Pelissier said she felt uncomfortable reserving $100,000 prior to <br /> 37 discussing all other items. <br /> 38 Commissioner Rich said if there is a pot of money available to be moved around, why is <br /> 39 a motion necessary right now. <br /> 40 Chair McKee said a motion is not required but it has been standard process to go <br /> 41 through each section and vote as each step is reviewed. <br /> 42 Bonnie Hammersley said the motion of intent to adopt is connected because of the pay- <br /> 43 as-you-go funding. She said the Board does not have to vote on an intent to adopt the CIP at <br /> 44 the end of this CIP discussion. She said, rather, the vote could wait until the end of the <br /> 45 meeting, or until the meeting on June 16th. <br /> 46 Commissioner Dorosin asked if the $280,000 can be spent on anything. <br /> 47 Bonnie Hammersley said yes. <br /> 48 Commissioner Dorosin suggested removing the $280,000 out of the CIP, approving the <br /> 49 CIP and returning the money to the CIP on Tuesday, if it is not used in any other way. <br />
