He said his intent is not to <br /> harass GoTriangle, but the BOCC has a big decision to make in April, which he would like to <br /> be based in fact, not emotions. <br /> Commissioner Price said she would like a comparison on the light rail with two counties, <br /> other than Charlotte. <br /> Chair Dorosin said the Legislative Issues Work Group (LIWG) must convene by the end <br /> of 2016. He asked if there are two Commissioners willing to serve, through 2017, on this work <br /> group. <br /> Commissioner Price and Commissioner Marcoplos volunteered to be on the LIWG. <br /> Commissioner Rich asked if this group will be addressing State or Federal legislative <br /> issues, as there is a deadline for federal issues on January 20, 2017. <br /> Greg Wilder, County Manager's Office, said the North Carolina Association of Counties <br /> (NCAC) has asked for information to be returned. He said he will work with the LIWG on a list <br /> of issues, and disseminate all information to the BOCC for review and comment, prior to <br /> submitting it to the NCAC. <br /> 4.
