The utility service that the County has caused or allowed to be developed has to date <br />been primarily limited to wastewater collection intended to address serious pubic health issues <br />related to failing on-site wastewater treatment systems and to enhance the availability of <br />affordable housing. <br />Since 1997, Orange County has passed a sewer bond intended to address public health issues <br />and fi~lfill sewer system expansion commitments in the central Efland area and secured EPA <br />grant funding intended to: a) enhance development opportunities for the Buckhorn Road EDD; <br />b) provide sewer utilities for a new Efland middle school; and c) address environmental <br />justice/public health issues in the Buckhorn Road community. Although the initiation of the <br />project to be funded by the bond issue and grants has been delayed by a number of practical <br />as well as procedural concerns related to the availability of finding resources and land use, the <br />BOCC has - as of .June 2, 2004 -directed staff to move forward with the utility expansion <br />project, Since the Board's project approval, a number of important tasks -acquiring additional <br />EPA grant funding, finalizing a utility extension/annexation agreement with the City of Mebane, <br />
