Mayor Johnson <br />- Page 2 <br />Since this project will be funded with CDBG funds, like <br />the recently completed Rencher Street Project, the County has <br />been advised by the State that these funds cannot be used to <br />pay fees associated with water /sewer construction. <br />Customarily, these fees are waived in order to make CDBG <br />projects cost feasible. Hillsborough has worked with Orange <br />County in the past in this manner by waiving fees for the <br />Rencher Street project. <br />Therefore, Orange County requests that the Town of <br />Hillsborough allow an exception to Section 5 of the above <br />referenced contract which would not require the availability <br />fee for new connections completed in the Efland CDBG Project <br />Area in order to make the project cost feasible. Acceptance <br />of this request will allow the County if funded to improve <br />the quality of life for the residents of this portion of the <br />Efland community. I would ask that you consider this request <br />at your earliest meeting in May so that we may complete our <br />application document prior to the May 15, 1992 deadline. <br />Thank you for your support of our Community Development <br />efforts to date and I look forward to the continued support <br />of the Town of Hillsborough. If you need additional <br />information, please contact Tara L. Pikes, Housing/ Community <br />Development Director at 732 -8181 Extension 2490. <br />Sincerely, <br />Moses Carey, Jr. <br />Chair <br />cc: Hillsborough Town Board <br />Orange County Board of Commissioners <br />Eric Swanson, Town Administrator <br />John M. Link, Jr., County Manager <br />Geoffrey Gledhill, County Attorney <br />Michael B. Brough, Town Attorney <br />Tara L. Pikes, Housing /CD Director <br />
