Mayor <br />Town of Carrboro <br />s0l West Main Street <br />Carrboro, NC 27510 <br />Dear Chair Jacobs, Mayor Chilton and. Mayor Foy: <br />Kevin Foy, Mayor <br />Town of Chapel Hill <br />405 Martin Luther King Jr. <br />Boulevard <br />Chapel Hill, NC 27514 <br />On behalf of the OWASA Board of Directors, I am writing to ask that tl~e Orange County Board <br />of Commissioners, Carrboro Board of Aldermen and Chapel Hill Town Council formally <br />endorse the Taste of"Hope Customer Assistance Program. As you know, this is a difficult time, <br />especially far families of modest means who get by from paycheck to paycheck. <br />We are continuing our campaign to get more people to donate to the: Taste of Hope program <br />through mailings with our bills, calumns in local newspapers,. etc. However, I believe a public <br />expression of.your support as the elected leadership of the .community we sense would be very <br />timely and effective. <br />Endorsements in tele~~ised meetings of your respective boards would be an excellent way to <br />reach more people about helping families in need simply and painlessly through the Taste of <br />Hope program. Having one`s OWASA bills automatically rounded up to the nearest dollar costs <br />less than $] 2 .per year. <br />We would like to schedule times when we can make a brief presentation to each of the_governing <br />boards and ask you to adopt resolutions of suppari, and will he in touch with your staff. <br />Best regards. <br />Dandy Kabrick, P.E. <br />Chair of the OWASA Board <br />Enclosure (suggested resolution to endorse the Taste of Hope program) <br />c: Mr. Chris Moran, Executive Director, Inter-Faith Cou»cil for Social Service <br />Board of Directors <br />Ed Kerwin <br />Robert Epting <br />400 Junes Ferr~~ Road :Equal Opponunlt} Employer tibice (919) 968.4421 <br />PO Be~x 3fi6 Printed on Recycled Paper FAx (919) 468.4464 <br />Carrboro,lC 27510-0366 N'0'w.6H'QSR.OIA <br />
