ORANGE COUNTY <br />BOARD OF COMMISSIONERS <br />'WORK SESSION ABSTRACT <br />Meeting Date: January 29, 2001 <br />Action Agenda <br />Item No. 4_ <br />SUBJECT: Planning Goals Prioritization - Quarterly Public Hearings <br />DEPARTMENT: Planning and Inspections <br />PUBLIC HEARING: (Y/N) No <br />ATTACHMENT(S): <br />List of Planning Associated Goals <br />Priority List <br />INFORMATION CONTACT: <br />Craig N. Benedict, ext. 2592 <br />TELEPHONE NUMBERS: <br />Hillsborough 732-8181 <br />Chapel Hill .968-4501 <br />Durham 688-7331 <br />Mebane (336)227-2031 <br />PURPOSE: To briefly discuss which planning goals can be prioritized and accomplished in the <br />short term. <br />BACKGROUND: At least since 1999, there has been a full course of planning goals. Due to <br />sequencing, problem solving, interrelated issues, prioritizing, and limited time and personnel <br />resources, only a minor portion could be accomplished. Even though these successes are <br />numerous a prioritization and brief reassessment is necessary for the planning director to focus his <br />energies and resources on the most important goals and projects. <br />The priority list is attached for review. <br />FINANCIAL IMPACT: There is potential fiscal impact if consultants or extra permanent, temporary, <br />or intern personnel are required. <br />RECOMMENDATION(S): To be discussed at the meeting.
