Unfortunately I was unable to attend the meeting <br />last night. Regardless, here are my <br />comments: <br />I, Helena Safron, request that the Orange County Comprehensive Plan include specific plans <br />and recommendations for solutions to the issues raised by the Rogers-Eubanks Neighborhood <br />Association (RENA) and the Coalition to End Environmental Racism (CEER). These issues <br />include: <br />1) Ending the 35 year burden of hosting of solid waste facilities by <br />the Rogers-Eubanks neighborhood; <br />2) Providing funding for provision of public, regulated drinking water <br />and sewer service to all households in the Rogers-Eubanks <br />neighborhood; <br />3) Providing funding for other basic municipal services to residents <br />of the Rogers-Eubanks neighborhood including, but not limited to paved <br />roads, paved sidewalks, stormwater drains, street lights, public bus <br />service (including covered bus stops), emergency protection services <br />(i.e., fire, police protection, ambulatory and rescue squad). <br />Sincerely, <br />Helena Safron <br />UNC-Chapel Hill Graduate Student <br />M.A. Folklore Curriculum <br />
