19 <br /> <br />The design and construction of water and sewer infrastructure in this EDD will facilitate 1 <br />development in the area. 2 <br /> 3 <br />Operational Impact: None. After construction, this system would be owned, operated and 4 <br />maintained by the City of Mebane per an existing interlocal agreement amended in 2012. 5 <br /> 6 <br />FY2018-23 Recommended Capital Investment Plan 7 <br />Policy Priorities 8 <br />• Economic Development Water & Sewer Infrastructure - $145,000 (p. 75) 9 <br />o Phase 3 – Under Interstate to Site Served by Rail 10 <br />o Site Readiness 11 <br />o Zoned Economic Development – Buckhorn EDB – 1 12 <br /> Light industrial 13 <br /> 200 acres total 14 <br /> Access improvements needed 15 <br />o Construction FY2019-20 - $1.3 million 16 <br /> 17 <br />Commissioner Price asked if residential homes will be able to tap on. 18 <br />Craig Benedict, Planning Director, said this is for undeveloped land, and the Gravelly 19 <br />Hill lift station has been leveraged. He said there is not a lot of housing in this area, but 20 <br />anyone could tie into the system once it is installed. 21 <br /> Travis Myren resumed the presentation: 22 <br /> 23 <br />• EMS Substation with Solar Pilot - $1,500,000 (page 53) 24 <br />Project Description/Justification: Funding in FY 2018-19 includes a stand-alone station in the 25 <br />Efland area. This station will replace the existing Station 4 on Mt Willing Road in Efland. The 26 <br />existing station is incapable of expansion and the cost of upfitting and bringing the station into 27 <br />compliance under the state fire code would be more than the cost of the building itself. The 28 <br />proposed new station will provide bays to house the ambulance and will be within 1 mile of the 29 <br />existing station. Funding in FY 2018-19 also includes installing a solar photovoltaic (PV) 30 <br />system on the roof of the new stand-alone station. Future EMS stations will be strategically 31 <br />located in developing districts that are experiencing increasing call volume and service 32 <br />demand. The architectural design of the stations will allow for one drive through bay (with 33 <br />expansion for an additional drive through bay), secure storage for narcotics, a decontamination 34 <br />area, equipment room with washer/dryer, sleeping quarters, training/conference room, office 35 <br />area, restrooms and shower, and public area separate from the secure area of the crew 36 <br />quarters. The cost of the colocation stations represents efficiencies gained from sharing of 37 <br />kitchen, training, and other common areas. The operating costs of the co-located facilities will 38 <br />also be shared. 39 <br /> 40 <br />FY 2018-19: Independent station in the Efland area with a solar photovoltaic (PV) system FY 41 <br />2021-22: Co-Location with fire department to be determined 42 <br />FY 2022-23: $100,000 for architectural design for standalone in Years 6-10 43 <br />Years 6-10: Independent EMS station in the Northern corridor of the County 44 <br />Years 6-10: Co-Location with fire department 45 <br /> 46 <br />Emergency Services Substation Long Range Plan 47 <br />• FY2016-17 Colocation with Chapel Hill Fire Department at Glen Lennox 48 <br />• FY2017-18 – Colocation with Orange Rural Fire and Hillsborough Police at Waterstone 49 <br />• FY2018-19 – Standalone station in Buckhorn-Efland area 50
