The first order of business for the partners will be finalizing an Interlocal Agreement <br />regarding the terms of the acquisition. A draft Interlocal Agreement has been forwarded <br />by our County Attorney to your Board's attorney for preliminary review; and a copy is <br />attached for your review as well. We would appreciate receipt of initial comments by the <br />end of July. Once we receive all preliminary comments, we will send out a final draft for <br />review and action by your Board. Comments on the draft should be forwarded to your <br />Board's attorney who will in turn work with our Attorney on a revised draft. <br />The draft Interlocal Agreement provides for an overall planning effort by the four <br />jurisdictions with the assistance of an advisory committee. We anticipate this broader <br />planning effort for the four entities to begin sometime later in the fall. The planning effort <br />will focus not only on the Duke University tract, but also on the overall Hollow Rock <br />access area to determine the best locations for public uses within the area across <br />,jurisdictional lines. <br />If you have any questions or concerns, please contact me or have your Manager or staff <br />contact our staff directly. <br />With warm regards, <br />Gig <br />Ellen Reckhow <br />Chairman <br />xc: Mike Ruffin, Durham County Manager <br />Patrick Baker, Durham City Manager <br />Cal Horton, Chapel Hill Manager <br />.John Link, Orange County Manager <br />Durham County Board of Commissioners <br />
