32 1 that if Capkov never develops it, it will not change anything that the county has to do now in order 2 to purchase the land. He said some of the stormwater costs could be shared. 3 Commissioner Carter asked if the stormwater cost share is articulated somewhere where 4 they can refer to it. 5 Alan Dorman said it is in the Purchase agreement. 6 Commissioner Carter asked if the site plan depicted the parcel circled in red. 7 Alan Dorman said yes, and the building shown is a future building that Capkov would 8 construct. 9 Commissioner Carter asked about the parking for the Crisis Diversion Facility. She said it 10 looks significantly smaller than the parking dedicated for the possible future development by 11 Capkov. 12 Alan Dorman said it is the minimum required parking. 13 Commissioner Carter asked about the cost of developing the water and sewer. 14 Alan Dorman said the specific costs will be in the next presentation, but the costs are 15 planned to be covered by Orange County. 16 Commissioner Greene said she is also very excited to see this and appreciates the 17 concerns about the upcoming budget, but given this amount was already approved in the current 18 year's budget, she believes this purchase should go through. 19 Commissioner Fowler echoed Commissioner Greene's comments and reminded the 20 Board that focusing on behavioral health needs is part of the Strategic Plan. She said she supports 21 moving forward. 22 Vice-Chair Hamilton said she appreciates others' comments. She said this is an example 23 of where investment now will result in savings for residents later. She said they would have to 24 look into what they would do less of if they do this. She said those are very hard decisions to 25 make. She said given the difficulty in finding a location, and the benefits of this location, the Board 26 should move forward with purchasing the property. 27 Commissioner Portie-Ascott said she is in favor of being as efficient as possible in 28 providing these needed services. She said she is thinking about the tariffs and hopes that it turns 29 out that this is a good investment that will benefit residents. 30 31 A motion was made by Commissioner Greene, seconded by Commissioner Fowler, to: 32 1) Approve the Purchase and Sale Contract for a 5-acre parcel of land located off Waterstone 33 Drive in Hillsborough for the purpose of building a Crisis Diversion Facility; and 34 2) Authorize the County Manager to execute all necessary documents to close on the 35 property upon final review by the County Attorney. 36 37 VOTE: UNANIMOUS 38 39 c.
