MEMORANDUM

 

TO:                  Mayor and Town Council

 

FROM:            W. Calvin Horton, Town Manager

 

SUBJECT:       Additional Information for Agenda Item #4b:  Calling a Public Hearing on a proposed Schools Adequate Public Facilities Ordinance

 

DATE:             December 12, 2002

 

 

Item 4b on tonight’s agenda recommends calling a Public Hearing for January 22, 2003, to consider a proposed Schools Adequate Public Facilities Ordinance.

 

We have received two additional pieces of information about this proposed ordinance.  First, we understand that on December 10, the Orange County Board of Commissioners approved execution of a Memorandum of Understanding.  Please see the attached December 11 memorandum from Commissioner Alice Gordon.

 

Also, we have received a letter from Orange County Attorney Geoffrey Gledhill, stating that an adjustment is needed to the form of the Memorandum of Understanding approved by the Chapel Hill Town Council in April 2002.  That letter is attached.

 

Given this information, it is our intent to bring a revised Memorandum of Understanding to the Town Council at the January 22, 2003 Public Hearing (along the lines suggested by Mr. Gledhill), along with the proposed ordinance.
