This item was introduced at <br /> 30 the October 5,2022 ORC meeting and is scheduled for a BOCC public hearing in January. <br /> 31 PRESENTER: Tyler Sliger, Planner II <br /> 32 <br /> 33 Perdita Holtz presented a PowerPoint presentation and reviewed School Adequate Public Facilities Ordinance(SAPFO) <br /> 34 <br /> 35 Statler Gilfillen: Without the need for new schools, my experience as an architect, maintenance has been severely <br /> 36 limited is there any consideration of maintenance upgrades. <br /> 37 <br /> 38 Perdita Holtz: I can't speak as to the budgets but there are maintenance needs that are addressed in the school budgets <br /> 39 every year. <br /> 40 <br /> 41 Lamar Proctor: I looked into this and the issue for me is that Mebane is not part of the MOU, all this development in <br /> 42 Western Orange County, if you remove the signature block then the school board doesn't have any advance notice,the <br /> 43 elected body of the school board, has no advance notice of these developments that are going to be Mebane town <br /> 44 developments within Western Orange County that contribute to the school systems until the kids hit the schools.The <br /> 45 MOU does a fabulous job of covering this information for the schools in the MOU but for Mebane, I think in terms of <br /> 46 planning that this does provide a helpful mechanism to notice them. It serves an effective notice mechanism to the <br /> 47 school board of subdivision development in Western Orange County by Mebane that is covered and at the phase one of <br /> 48 SAPFO. <br /> 49 <br /> 50 Perdita Holtz: School staff keeps their school board informed of the work that we're doing and they do attend Technical <br /> 51 Review Committee (TRC) meetings for Mebane. They receive those agendas and can attend and provide comments. <br /> 52 School staff tracks development that is happening. Planning tracks it at well in Orange County's Planning Department. <br /> 53 It's not the only way the school board receive notification of development that's happening and our development that <br /> 54 receive CAPS aren't subdivisions anyway there is other development that is subject to CAPS not just subdivisions. The <br /> 55 school signature block is a time burden on school staff and planning staff. We are the only local government that is part <br />
