a+~-a~~~~.~-~ .~d <br />2 <br />Recommendations of the School/Parks Reserve Committee <br />May 6, .1999 (revised 11/22/99) <br />(Revised 71-22-99 as per memo and addition at meeting. New language shown in italic) <br />On May 4, the Board of Commissioners appointed members Margaret Brown and Barry Jacobs as a committee to <br />discuss the proposed school/park combination projects raised at the May 4 .meeting and the potential use of the <br />School/Parks Reserve Fund. <br />The Committee met with Finance Director Ken Chavious and Environment and Resource Conservation Director <br />David Stancil on May 6. At this meeting, the committee agreed to develop both short-term recommendations on the <br />disposition toward the school/park proposals on the table, and long-term recommendations for the future of the <br />reserve fund. <br />On November2~ 1999, the Board ofCommissioners discussed the reportrecommendations and <br />revised the re~rt with updated information, The updatedreportis as fo/%ws•• <br />Short-Term/Current Projects. <br />A. The two projects mentioned on May 4 shou/d be hand/ed as fo/%ws to meet the needs ofthe <br />crommurity <br />1. The Board has decided not to pursue the Northern Orange Elementary site because the Orange <br />County Schools did not hold clear title to the land. <br />2. The Board has decided that the Smith Middle School field project in Chapel Hill-Carrboro should <br />be pursued, but is on hold pending review by the N.C. Departmentof Public lnsfruction on lease <br />arrangements. <br />B. These needs can best be met without tapping into the School/Parks Reserve Fund. <br />C. The following criteria should be used in evaluating funding for these or other short-term school/park requests: <br />1. As an incentive to assist the Towns in meeting parks needs, County funding of Town park projects <br />(including school/Town park combinations) would be offered on a 1:1 matching basis. <br />2. The land in question for a proposed school/park co-location must be owned by a governmental entity <br />before County funds are committed. <br />3. County funding contributions should not be made for parks design or planning, unless County. funds are <br />used to complete the project. Anysuchfundingissubjecttoapprova/oftheBoardofCounty <br />Commissioners, arda designatedrepresentative ofthe Boardshou/d be invo/vedin the <br />design/p/arming process, as the Board deems approp~rate, <br />D. Funding for the expanded Smith Middle School/Carrboro Park arrangement should be addressed through use of <br />the remaining moneys from the parks bond for facility development. The County should offer to match the cost <br />of this proposal with a like amount from the Town of Carrboro. The estimated project cost is $450,000, which <br />would translate into $225,000 each from Carrboro and Orange County.
