ORANGE COUNTY <br />BOARD OF COMMISSIONERS <br />ACTION AGENDA ITEM ABSTRACT <br />Meeting Date: May 20, 2003 <br />Action Agen3da~ <br />Item No. <br />SUBJECT: Little River Park Interlocal A reement <br />DEPARTMENT: Recreation and Parks <br />Environment and Resource <br />Conservation <br />PUBLIC HEARING: (Y/N) No <br />ATTACHMENT(S): <br />Proposed Interlocal Agreement <br />INFORMATION CONTACT: <br />Lori Taft, ext 2660 <br />David Stancil, ext 2590 <br />Rich Shaw, 2591 <br />TELEPHONE NUMBERS: <br />Hillsborough <br />Chapel Hill <br />Durham <br />Mebane <br />732-8181 <br />968-4501 <br />688-7331 <br />336-227-2031 <br />PURPOSE: To consider the proposed Interlocal Agreement between the Counties of Durham <br />and Orange, for the Little River Regional Park and Natural Area. <br />BACKGROUND: Orange County and Durham County acquired a 391-acre property in 2000-01 <br />for the Little River Regional Park and Natural Area. Establishing the new park is a cooperative <br />project among the partners Orange County, Durham County, the Triangle Land Conservancy <br />and the Eno River Association. The regional park will be jointly owned and managed by Orange <br />and Durham counties in accordance with an interlocal agreement. <br />Late last year, both the Orange and Durham county boards of commissioners approved a <br />preliminary park design plan that incorporates the following elements: entrance road and <br />parking area, picnic shelter, restroom facility, children's play area, group camping area, and trail <br />system (with separate walking/hiking, mountain biking, and equestrian trails). Large portions of <br />the park will remain in a natural state. A master plan has been prepared for both county boards' <br />consideration as well. <br />The next important action for board consideration is adoption of the interlocal agreement. The <br />proposed agreement addresses the following elements: Park Name, Park Master Plan, Names <br />on Park Facilities, Ownership and Use, Additional Tracts, Regulations, Budget, Park funding, <br />Contracts, Park Revenues, Insurance, Park Manager Residence, Park Operation and <br />Maintenance, Park Security and Public Safety, Duration and Termination. <br />FINANCIAL IMPACT: The agreement proposes a 50-50 cost share for park operation and <br />management. The Boards of each County will consider operating and capital budget <br />recommendations in the coming months. A federal Land and Water Conservation Fund grant <br />
