Approved & T23 <br /> 1425 Adam Beeman : I understand but in combination with the other fields , as the HYAA representative said , they start at 6 , <br /> 1426 those folks are going to start rolling in for baseball , it sounds like tennis is going to be happening all day long , I am just <br /> 1427 trying to figure out the extra folks after school once school has been let out . <br /> 1428 <br /> 1429 Lyle Overstreet : The trip calculations for the school are based on state wide averages of other, similar schools so it is <br /> 1430 baked into the numbers . <br /> 1431 <br /> 1432 Adam Beeman : Okay , I had not heard anything about athletic programs for the school , and I was just curious to know if <br /> 1433 they were having athletic programs . <br /> 1434 <br /> 1435 Beth Bronson : Would those parking lots for the upper and lower schools be open to the public after 5 ? Or would they <br /> 1436 remain a private parking lot given that they are on a separate parcel . <br /> 1437 <br /> 1438 Jim Parker : They are going to co -exist together, I ' m sure that if the capacity of the parking for the fields is not enough <br /> 1439 that sharing parking is a great option but that would be up to the school if they chose to do that . If we can get this <br /> 1440 rezoned , then those conversations could happen with those potential owners . <br /> 1441 <br /> 1442 Beth Bronson - My point being that there are 192 spaces by the baseball fields and I didn ' t see what the count was for by <br /> 1443 the tennis court, I assume it' s similar . . . . <br /> 1444 <br /> 1445 Jim Parker : A condition that we could set and take with us is that there would be consideration for shared parking . . . . <br /> 1446 <br /> 1447 Adam Beeman : I had a question about the articulation agreement . . . <br /> 1448 <br /> 1449 Melissa Poole : I know what this is . . there are currently two charter schools in Hillsborough . There is the Expedition <br /> 1450 school and there is Eno River Academy . My children went to TEF and once they reached the 8th grade , there is an <br /> 1451 articulation agreement for the high school . You can have articulation agreements for charter schools . <br /> 1452 <br /> 1453 Overlapping conversations about seats available for transfer at various schools and articulation agreements . <br /> 1454 <br /> 1455 A letter from Joey Webb was read by a representative from the charter school . <br /> 1456 <br /> 1457 Statler Gilfillen : What are we actually approving tonight? This is about a piece of property with a school on it . It could be <br /> 1458 any kind of school on this site . If it is a private school then the developer has rights about who is allowed to go into that <br /> 1459 school , right? <br /> 1460 <br /> 1461 Patrick Byker: If for some reason this became a site for Durham Academy , then that private school admission process by <br /> 1462 law prohibits discrimination . <br /> 1463 <br /> 1464 Statler Gilfillen : If this were a private school , unlike a charter school then all of the neighbors and immediate property <br /> 1465 owners around this property , that school could offer special compensation to them if they had children who wanted to <br /> 1466 come there and could walk there . That could be hypothetically possible , right? <br /> 1467 <br /> 1468 Patrick Byker : The down side is they would have to pay . <br /> 1469 <br /> 1470 Statler Gilfillen : Yes but they could also offer a discount to the immediate property owners . <br /> 1471 <br /> 1472 Overlapping conversations <br /> 1473 <br /> 1474 Chris Johnston : We can ' t consider that it is a charter school , we can ' t consider that it is a public school , all we can <br /> 1475 consider is that it is a school , but does that matter for capacity? If the argument is that we are serving capacity for the <br /> 1476 local school system and this is a school that potentially pulls from outside the county, is that anything that we can <br /> 1477 consider or is that considering a charter school ? <br /> 1478 <br /> 1479 Patrick Byker: My understanding is no . <br />
