Commissioner Jacobs said he hopes staff would consider which segments would be <br /> done first in order to address citizens' concerns. <br /> Commissioner Pelissier asked the State if there were a lot of people that gave <br /> easements or land so that purchasing could be avoided. <br /> Carol Tingley said Alamance County is a good example as it has been successful at <br /> receiving donations, purchasing easements, and leveraging the State bond monies. She said <br /> Alamance also secured local grants and sponsorships. <br /> Chair McKee referred to partnerships and sponsors and strongly encouraged <br /> approaching businesses and other resources in order to leverage the money the County has. <br /> Chair McKee asked if the process can proceed in 2016 is there a general timeline for <br /> completion of the MST segment from Hillsborough to OWASA lands. <br /> David Stancil said he does not know and that estimate would be part of the proposal <br /> brought back by staff. He said he has a better sense of the length of the planning process, <br /> which he thinks would take 3-6 months. He said there seems to be an impetus in the south <br /> and the north of the County and it is the middle area that would be the biggest challenge. <br /> Chair McKee asked if a timeline could be developed going forward. <br /> David Stancil said yes, we can certainly do that. <br /> 5.
