ORANGE COUNTY PLANNING DEPARTMENT <br /> 27:l, HILLSBOROUGH <br /> NORTH CAROLINA <br /> 27278 <br /> a <br /> all s2 <br /> ' - <br /> O R A N G E C O U N T Y <br /> INTEROFFICE MEMORANDUM <br /> 8708-1807 <br /> TO: Albert Kittrell , Interim County Manager <br /> MV ■ <br /> FROM: Marvin E . Collins, Planning Director <br /> SUBJECT: Financial Participation - Water/Sewer Policy <br /> DATE : August 12, 1987 <br /> COPIES : Geoffrey Gledhill , County Attorney <br /> Gordon Baker, Finance Director <br /> As follow-up to our August 12, 1987 meeting with the County <br /> Attorney, I have identified some of his concerns about the <br /> draft policies for County involvement in water/sewer <br /> extensions. <br /> 1 . Orange County, through financial participation in <br /> water/sewer projects, can impose requirements which it <br /> might not otherwise be able to do through the regulatory <br /> process. <br /> 2. The memorandum which identifies the Planning Board <br /> recommendation is good as a report on recommended policy <br /> but must be restructured and put in a "policy format" . <br /> (This is to be accomplished prior to the September 15 <br /> public hearing. ) <br /> 3. Section (6) ( a) - Delete the words " line extensions" and <br /> add "supply and/or" before "treatment". Under the <br /> present wording, extensions of water/sewer lines by <br /> private individuals or corporations would not be <br /> permitted. <br /> 4. Section (6) ( b ) - The statement that "Orange County will <br /> not participate in projects which will benefit <br /> exclusively private interests" may be a deliberate <br /> restriction , but It excludes County participation <br /> projects which promote economic development; i .e . , <br />
