ADJUSTMENTS TO AGENDA Dana Thompson asked to talk about the data determination for school membership for the Adequate Public Facilities Ordinance. This will be addressed in agenda item#6. APPROVAL OF MINUTES—May 15,2002 Chair Gordon said that there was a different edited version of the minutes(copies passed out)and no one would have had time to read them. Some of the differences are clarification. She suggested holding off on approving the minutes until everyone had the chance to read them. At the end of the meeting,a motion was made by Michael Gehring, seconded by Jim Ward to approve the minutes of May 15,2002. VOTE: UNANIMOUS TOWN OF CHAPEL HILL MOU ADOPTION HEARING OF APRIL 8,2002 Memorandum to Mayor and Town Council from W.Calvin Horton,Town Manager Discussion Paper Resolution A Resolution B Chair Gordon said that the Town of Chapel Hill adopted Resolution A and not Resolution B. Craig Benedict said that Chapel Hill did not address Resolution B. The question is with the level of service. There was testimony at a public hearing that if you use the 105°/x, 107%,and 110%as in the MOU at this time,it is likely that in a few years there would be a moratorium or a deferral that would occur. This testimony was from the Chamber of Commerce. The information was based on one projection methodology that was in use in the Chapel Hill-Carrboro City School system. The level of service may need to be adjusted. He asked Chris Berndt if Resolution B had been discussed since the hearing. Chris Berndt said no-and that the Council adopted Resolution A. She brought the minutes from the meeting,but it is pretty clear that Resolution A was the one that they wanted. Craig Benedict said that any adjustments to these level of service percentages that are wrapped into the MOU and have been recommended by this board,will have to be returned to the local governments and to the school districts for reevaluation and approval. There are three elements wrapped into the MOU, and there are four that would be determined before the actual land development ordinance goes into effect. Within the next month,the new projections will be compared with the proposed CIP to 1
