Stancil, Town Manager <br /> SUBJECT: 2017 SAPFOTAC Draft Annual Report Comments <br /> DATE: April 28, 2017 <br /> This memorandum is in response to your letter dated March 8, 2017 regarding the 2017 Report of the <br /> Schools Adequate Public Facilities Ordinance (SAPFO) Technical Advisory Committee. The Chapel <br /> Hill Town Council received a presentation on the report from Orange County staff on April 24, 2014. In <br /> response to your request,please find below the Council's comments. <br /> The Council: <br /> • Suggested that school capacity should be increased to the extent possible during planned <br /> renovations. Specifically, the Council expressed interest in further increasing capacity at <br /> Chapel Hill High School. <br /> • Expressed concern that the report doesn't take into account approved but unbuilt <br /> development. <br /> • Noted the potential school impacts of emerging single-family housing trends, with empty <br /> nesters downsizing and selling houses to younger families who may add children to the <br /> school system. <br /> Thank you for the opportunity to provide comments. Please let me know if you have any questions. <br /> 1 <br />
