tr 24 TOWN OF CHAPEL HILL 306 NORTH COLUMBIA STREET CHAPEL HILL, NORTH CAROLINA 27516 OFFICE OF THE MAYOR (919)968-2714 FAX(919)967-8406 June 22, 1999 Dr. Alice Gordon, Chair Board of Orange County Commissioners Post Office Box 8181 Hillsborough,NC 27278 Dear Alice: I am pleased to forward to you a copy of the resolution the Chapel Hill Town Council adopted last night authorizing the execution of the Agreement for Solid Waste Management. As you will see, the authority is based on the June 1 draft of the agreement, with a limited number of modifications: 1. A deed restriction would be added to the deed for the 60 acres of the Greene tract to be reserved for solid waste management purposes that would prohibit use of that land for the purpose of burying either mixed solid waste or construction and demolition waste, while specifically allowing other solid waste management uses. In addition, the Town of Chapel Hill agrees to amend its development regulations so that such other solid waste uses of this property would be permitted uses. The Council has already instructed our staff to begin this zoning ordinance amendment process. 2. Amplify the definitions of the Integrated Solid Waste Management Plan and the Solid Waste Management Plan and Policies, while also acknowledging explicitly that the County has sufficient authority to adjust either the resources available to the System or the requirements of the Solid Waste Management Plan and Policies, or both. In addition, the Council has authorized me to agree to minor changes, as long as the document to be executed is in substantially the form presented and discussed on June 14 and June 21. I believe that this signals the Council's intent to complete discussions of final details and have the Solid Waste Agreement executed by July 1.
