32 <br /> <br />Bonnie Hammersley introduced Orange County’s new Child Support Director Erica <br />Bryant. <br /> <br />10. County Attorney’s Report <br />John Roberts said in addition to the well-reported bills that the General Assembly (GA) <br />passed (elections and voter ID) the legislature also revisited some statutory requirements and <br />technical aspects in a technical corrections bill. He said this impacts local governments as the <br />GA eliminated the requirement for cable/telecom services to provide evidence and maps of how <br />many households they skip over in their service areas. He said the Republican legislator who <br />pushed that indicated that in the upcoming long session they will put forward a bill that will <br />replace that and be better than what was being used. He said they clarified that local <br />governments cannot require new or increased stormwater controls for preexisting <br />developments, and that that has to go in stormwater ordinances, and they further restricted <br />town’s ability to impose fees for the review of small cell applications. <br />Commissioner Dorosin asked if the Governor has signed the technical corrections bill <br />yet. <br />John Roberts said no, it has been ratified by both houses, but is waiting for the <br />Governor’s signature. <br />Chair Rich asked if Commissioner Dorosin thinks the Governor will not sign it. <br />Commissioner Dorosin said there is some controversial stuff in there about municipal <br />charter schools and the innovative school district. <br /> <br />11. *Appointments <br />Commission for the Environment – Appointments <br /> <br />The Board considered making re-appointments to the Commission for the Environment. <br /> <br />A motion was made by Commissioner Dorosin, seconded by Commissioner Marcoplos <br />to appoint the following to the Commission for the Environment: <br /> <br />• Position 12 James Eichel to an At-Large Engineering for a First Full Term ending <br />12/31/2021 <br />• Position 13 Matt Crook to an At-Large Position for a First Full Term ending 12/31/2021 <br />• Position 14 Lynne Gronback to an At-Large position for a Second Full Term ending <br />12/31/2021 <br />• Position 15 Bradley Saul to an At-Large Position for a First Full Term ending 12/31/2021 <br /> <br />VOTE: UNANIMOUS <br /> <br />12.
