Ms. Green called attention to the occupancy trends in the proposed marketing report <br /> (presented earlier in the meeting by Mr. Blake). Ms. Green's explanation for the decline in <br /> growth was the fact that Durham and Raleigh were developing several hotels nearby and <br /> the new facilities were drawing business from Chapel Hill. She stressed the importance of <br /> marketing Chapel Hill/Orange County as a destination to combat the dipping occupancy in <br /> local accommodations. <br /> OLD BUSINESS <br /> Ms. Green reported that she met with a representative of the North Carolina Department <br /> of Transportation regarding the highway signs. Ms. Green stated she would be sending <br /> our requests for proposals (RFP) for the signs prior to her departure. The Orange County <br /> seal will be sent to a designer prior to being placed on the highway signs. It is estimated <br /> that the price continues to be in line with the $15,000 budgeted for the project with the <br /> anticipated date for completion of the project to be in the fall of this year. <br /> NEW BUSINESS <br /> The nominating committee: Mr. Carey, Ms. Nancy Davis, and Ms. Evans presented a slate <br /> of officers for the 1998-99 year. The proposed officers were Mr. Lee Pavao, chairman; <br /> Mr. Creston Woods, vice chairman; and Mr. Moses Carey, Jr., treasurer. Mr. Pavao <br /> asked for nominations from the floor with no response. With no nominations, Dr. <br /> Halkiotis made a motion to accept the slate of officers stated for 1998-99. Ms. Pat Evans <br /> seconded the motion. With all members in agreement, the motion was passed. <br /> Mr. Greg Payne, Economic Development Director, explained Orange County's process <br /> for the search for a new director for the visitors bureau. It was announced that Joe Blake <br /> would be acting director until a new director of the bureau was hired. <br /> Board members approved the dates for the 1998-99 board meetings with a correction to <br /> the last meeting date. The date should be June 16th, 1999. <br /> ADJOURNMENT <br /> With no further business to be discussed Dr. Halkiotis made a motion to adjourn and Ms. <br /> Evans seconded the motion. With all members in favor of the motion the meeting was <br /> adjourned at 9:05 a.m. <br /> 3 <br />
