The increase in Current Operations <br /> 9 includes a 2.5% increase for salaries and benefits, a 2% cost increase in utilities, and a request <br /> 10 for a new designated College Liaison position for both Chapel Hill-Carrboro City Schools and <br /> 11 Orange County Schools. The increase in Capital Outlay is a one-time request to replace the <br /> 12 carpet and paint the walls at the Skills Development Center. Their request also includes <br /> 13 continuing the funding of$200,000 for 200 scholarships for Orange County residents attending <br /> 14 DTCC. This is funded through the Article 46 One-Quarter Center Sales tax proceeds. <br /> 15 <br /> 16 Durham Technical Community College — Orange County Campus Capital Investment Plan's <br /> 17 Manager Recommended project for a new Academic Building and parking in Years 6-10 totals <br /> 18 $26,547,911. <br /> 19 <br /> 20 Dr. Bill Ingram said Durham Tech is delighted to be Orange County's Community <br /> 21 College. He said he was surprised to hear of Dr. Todd Wirt's, OCS Superintendent, resignation <br /> 22 last night, and wished him well in the next chapter of his life. <br /> 23 Dr. Bill Ingram said Durham Tech offered scholarships to over 175 high schoolers last <br /> 24 year. He said early numbers indicate a large increase next year, and high schoolers are <br /> 25 making Durham Tech their first choice of school for continuing education. He said there are <br /> 26 over 125 high school students from the two school systems taking dual enrollment classes, at <br /> 27 no tuition, and this number is expected to increase. <br /> 28 Dr. Bill Ingram said earlier this month, Dr. Pam Baldwin and Durham Tech signed a <br /> 29 MOU to continue to offer early college classes. He said Durham Tech also has a good <br /> 30 relationship with Sheriff Blackwood, and other organizations, which has helped to expand their <br /> 31 course offerings. He said there is room for expansion across the board in all course offerings. <br /> 32 Dr. Bill Ingram said in 2016, Durham Tech received $4 million from a statewide bond <br /> 33 issue for capital needs for community colleges. He said, at that time, Durham Tech set aside a <br /> 34 billion dollars to support planning for a second building on the Orange County campus. He said <br /> 35 this construction is delayed until 2024, due to other urgent capital needs in the County. He said <br /> 36 the 2016 bond funding for this project will need to be spent before 2024, and Durham Tech will <br /> 37 use this funding for a project in Durham County. He said there is considerable support in the <br /> 38 State legislature for additional bond referendums, and he is confident that the new bonds will <br /> 39 help to build the new buildings. <br /> 40 Dr. Bill Ingram referred to the 2019-2020 budget, and said Durham Tech would like to <br /> 41 provide salary increases to employees paid with County dollars: housekeeping, maintenance <br /> 42 and security staff. He said Durham Tech is a Living Wage employer. <br /> 43 Dr. Bill Ingram said Durham Tech also funds a college liaison that works with the <br /> 44 schools systems, and asking for funds for a second liaison position. He said Durham Tech is <br /> 45 also seeking one-time funds for renovations at the skills development center in downtown <br /> 46 Chapel Hill. <br /> 47 Commissioner Price clarified that the bond money from Orange County will be used for <br /> 48 improvements in Durham County. <br /> 49 Dr. Bill Ingram said the funds need to be spent before 2024, and the Orange County <br /> 50 campus construction will not have started by then, so the funds will be used for other capital <br />
