The Board of Commissioners adopted a resolution in May indicating the Board's <br />intent to request that OWASA provide both water and sewer service to the new facility. <br />In accordance with the provisions of the Water & Sewer Management, Planning, and <br />Boundary Agreement to which the County, Towns, and OWASA are parties, we are <br />formally soliciting the comments of your governing board regarding the County's plans to <br />request water and sewer service to this essential public facility, <br />We would appreciate any feedback on this matter from your governing board by <br />September 15, 2005. Note that although our resolution contemplated feedback from the <br />Towns and OWASA by June 7, changes to the project planning timeline since adoption <br />of the May 17 resolution mitigated the need for immediate feedback from our partners in <br />the agreement, Your consideration of this issue and provision of any written comments <br />by mid-September will help us with our building design schedule. <br />Sin erely, <br />Moses Garey, Jr. <br />Chair, Board of County Commissioners <br />www.co.oranue.nc.us <br />Protecfing and preserving -People, Resources, Quality of Life <br />Orange County, North Carolina -You Countt <br />(919J 245-2130 • F,4:: (919) 644-0246 <br />
