The park was built on <br /> land owned by the County and Town of Hillsborough (now owned by the County). A <br /> Memorandum of Agreement (MOA) was developed and approved by the County and Town <br /> Boards of Commissioners in December 2010 to govern certain operations and responsibilities <br /> for the park. This agreement expires on December 31, 2015, but anticipates renewal by the <br /> parties. <br /> A revised MOA has been developed by County and Town staff, including representatives from <br /> the Sheriff's Department and the Town Police Department regarding coordination on public <br /> safety provision at the park. The new MOA continues the prior collaborative arrangement <br /> between the two departments. The Town also will continue to provide water and sewer service <br /> to the park, and handle opening and closing of gates to the park. <br /> The new agreement would continue this arrangement through the year 2020, and be renewable <br /> by the parties. The Hillsborough Board of Commissioners will consider this MOA on December <br /> 14, 2015. <br /> FINANCIAL IMPACT: There is no financial impact associated with the approval of the MOA, as <br /> it continues current operational and financial arrangements. <br /> SOCIAL JUSTICE IMPACT: The following Orange County Social Justice Goals are applicable <br /> to this agenda item: <br /> • GOAL: FOSTER A COMMUNITY CULTURE THAT REJECTS OPPRESSION AND <br /> INEQUITY <br />
