MARY GNASH RUSH, LEGAL REPRESENTATIVE WITH McGIER WOODS IN RALEIGH >>, BOND COUNCIL TO THE'COLLEGE IN THIS TRANSACTION. THESE BONDS THAT ARE BEING CONCERNS ARE WHAT WE TELEPHONE CALL AVENUE BONDS. THAT IS YOU A GOVERNMENTALISH WER WH ISSUES THE BONDS AND TRANSFORMS AROUND AND OFFERS PROCEEDS TO THE SCHOOL. THE INSTITUTION IS COMPLETELY RESPONSIBLE FOR PAYING THE BONDS BACK. IN THIS CIRCUMSTANCES, THE SHOOL HAS ACTUALLY ELECTED T USAGE A NATION-WIDE PROVIDER, PUBLIC FINANCING AUTHORITY. THEY UH LIE IN WISCONSIN BUT THEY PROBLEM BONDS THROUGHOUT THE COUNTRY UH, INSTEAD OF USING NORTH CAROLINA ISSUER. THE PRIMARY FACTOR TO SELECT THAT PROVIDER IS THAT THE NORTH CAROLINA CAPITAL MONEY COMPANY, WHICH IS NORTH CAROLINA ISSUER HAS A VERY STRICT LIMIT >> OF A 20-YEAR MATURITY. PROCEEDS OF THESE BONDS ARE BEING MADE USE OF TO ACQUIRER THE BUILDING IN WHICH THE SCHOOL IS IS LOCATED AND AFTER THAT INCLUDE ON TO IT WHICH IS A 40-YEAR ASSET.SO TO GET BETTER USE OF CASH FLOW, THE COLLEGE REALLY UH WANTED A LONGER MATURITY, AND THE COMPANY WILL CERTAINLY NOT PEMIT A MATURATION BEYOND 20 YEARS. THAT WAS THE REASON FOR UTILIZING VARIOUS ISSUER. > > NO MATTER WHETHER OR NOT
>> THE PROVIDER WERE IN WISCONSIN OR NORTH CAROLINA, WOULD A GOVERNING BODY EITHER BY THE COMMON COUNCIL OR COUNTY PAYMENT HAS THE NEED TO GO THROUGH THE PROCEDURE WE ' RE GOING THROUGH TODAY? > > IT ' S THE NORTH CAROLINA MONEY COMPANY WHERE THE PROVIDER, THE REGULATING BODY THAT ACCEPTS THOSE CONCERNS IS ACTUALLY THE GOVERNOR. SO THE PUBLIC HEARING WOULD BE HELD AT AGENCY LEVEL, AND AFTER THAT EITHER THE GENERAL ASSEMBLY OR THE GUV WOULD APPROVE AND TYPICALLY THESE GO TO THE GUV. > > SO THE ONLY FACTOR THIS IS BEFORE United States IS TWO-FOLD. TOP BECAUSE CONSUMER, THE PROVIDER OF THE BONDS IS OUT-OF-STATE. > > THAT ' S. > > NUMBER TWO BECAUSE IT ' S IN THE CITY OF DURHAM AND NOT IN THE AREA PART IS NOT IN THE CITY. > > YES, SIR. > > CAN WE TALK– YOU MAY NOT BE PREPARED TO SPEAK ABOUT THI, BUT CONTAINER YOU INFORM ME WHAT IS IT GOING TO ACCOMPLISH WITH THE CASH? YOU STATED BRIEFLY GOING TO GET UH THE BUILDING AND BROADEN IT.DOES THAT MEAN MORE YOUNGSTERS ARE GOING TO BE GOING TO THIS COLLEGE? > > I UH HAVE AGENTS FROM THE COLLEGE THAT CAN TALK ABOUT THE CHARTER AND THE AMOUNT OF PUPILS THE CHARTER ALLOWS BUT THEY UH DO HAVE A CHARTER THAT ALLOWS GROWTH OF THE INSTITUTION AND SO THEY ' RE ADDING TRAINEES YEAR-BY-YEAR AS THEY GROW, BUT IT IS YOU WILL ALL WITHIN THE CHARTER THAT WAS APPROVED BY THE NORTH CAROLINA STATE BOARD OF EDUCATION, WHICH IS WHT SES THE LIMITATION ON THE NUMBER> OF'TRAINEES. > > MS.

RUSH, I BELIEVE YOUR ENFORCEMENT ON THAT CONCERN. > > I ' M EXECUTIVE SUPERVISOR OF THE INSTITUTION. > > WHAT ARE Y ' ALL GOING TO DO WITH THIS MONEY?OUR CHARTER– WE STARTED AS A K-4 INSTITUTION, AND THE CHARTER IS FOR A K 12 INSTITUTION SO WE ADD A QUALITY A YEAR, SO EXPAND EACH YEAR.WE ' VE BEEN OUTFITTING THE BUILDING THAT SOMEBODY ELSE HAS AND BOOSTING THE WORTH OF THE BUILDING, UM, AND SO WE PREFER TO RISE THE VALUE OF OUR OWN BUILDING AND BE ABLE TO BROADEN OUR OWN FACILITY. IT'' S ADDITIONALLY MORE ECONOMICAL FOR US TO PURCHASE THE STRUCTURE AS OPPOSED TO RESET– TH MONTHLY REPAYMENT WILL BE SMALLER AND AS CHARTER COLLEGE WE NEED TO SPEND FOR OUR OWN STRUCTURE UNLIKE DISTRICT SCHOOLS, AND SO THAT INVOLVES REGARDING 25% OF OUR BUDGET PLAN, WHICH MEANS THAT IT'' S DIFFICULT TO PAY TEACHERS ENOUGH, UM, SO THE PURPOSE OF TRYING TO HAVE THIS BE A 40-YEAR BOND RATHER THAN OR A 30-YEAR AS OPPOSED TO 20-YEAR IS SO THAT WE CONTAINER HAVE BETTERER CASH CIRCULATION TO BE ABLE TO PAY EDUCATORS FAR BETTER. WE ARE NOT– I ACQUIRING THIS BUILDING, WE ARE NOT BROADENING BEYOND WHAT OUR CHARTER SAYS. WE WILL DO THAT WHETHER OR NOT, YOU KNOW. >> > > CERTAINLY. YOU'' RE NOT BREAKING THE LAW, I APPRECIATE THAT. THAT'' S TERRIFIC. >> > > WELL, NO, IT'' S NOT THAT, IT ' S THAT WE ' RE NOT GOING PAST EXPECTATIONS THAT HAVE BEEN ALWAYS BEEN THERE WITH OUR CHARTER.DOES NOT MEAN WE'' RE GOING TO BE BIGGER THAN WE EXPECTED TO BE. >> > > OTHER QUESTIONS? MAYOR PRO TEM. >> > > THANKS. FOLLOW-UP INQUIRY FOR OUR CITY E LAWYER. WE HAD HAD A BRIEF E-MAIL EXCHANGE REGARDING THIS CONCERN AND I WANTED TO FOLLOW-UP WITH YOU CONCERNING 2 REMAINING POINTS OF NOT APPROVING THE DEMAND. DO YOU HAVE A THOUGHT OR FEEDBACK? >> > > WE DID TAKE An APPEARANCE AT THAT CONCERN. I DISCOVER NO AUTHORITY THAT CALLS FOR United States TO ACCEPT THIS.IN FACT,
CONSULT BOND COUNCIL, THERE ARE SEVERAL FIRMS THAT COULD AUTHORIZE THIS, COULD BE DONE BY THE REGION. THE ONLY REASON IT'' S BELOW IS BECAUSE COUNTY IS NO LONGER ACCEPTING THEM, THERE'' S NO UH LEGISLATION THAT STATES THE AREA COULDN ' T DO THIS AND I THINK THE STATE COULD DO IT TOO SINCE THEY'' RE ALSO COMPONENT OF THE STATE, AREA AND OF CITY. THERE'' S NO REQUIREMENT THAT UH YOU DO IT. THE SENSIBLE EFFECT OF THAT, I'' M UNSURE APART FROM'IT ' S COMPONENT OF THE RULES OF THIS PROCESS THAT THEY GET AUTHORIZATION RESOLUTION THROUGH AN AGENCY THAT THEY RESIDE IN. SO AMONG THE THREE. THERE MAY BE OTHERS, I'' M NOT EXACTLY CERTAIN, THAT WOULD DO THAT. I'' M NOT CONSCIOUS YOU REQUIRED TO MAKE DISCOVERING OF THE TRUTH, IT'' S JUST– IT SEEMS WITHIN YOUR DISCRETION

THIS IS An ACTUAL CONCERN FOR A VARIETY OF INDIVIDUALS FOR LOTS OF OF United States THAT HAVE LUXURY OF DEBATE THERE ARE LOTS YOUTHS– A GREAT DEAL WHO LOOK LIE ME E– THAT ARE SIMPLY MOVING VIA THE SYSTEM AND MOMS AND DADS ARE DETERMINED TO OBTAIN THEIR KIDS INTO BEST CIRCUMSTANCES. WE'' RE NOT GOING TO INVEST ANY MONEY AS A CITY. THIS IS NOT ABOUT GRANTING THIS SCHOOL'' S CHARTER. THIS SCHOOL IS ALREADY FUNCTIONING. IT ' S ALREADY OFFERING OUR YOUNGSTERS. DURHAM YOUNGSTERS THAT ARE ALREADY ATTENDING IT. I E UNDERSTAND THE INQUIRIES ABOUT CHARTER INSTITUTIONS, U HOWEVER, FOR ME, THIS ISSUE ISN ' T REALLY ABOUT THE OVERALL PHILOSOPHICAL ARGUMENT ABOUT CHARTER COLLEGE WHICH IS WE DEMAND TO HAVE, ABSOLUTELY, THIS IS SAY SPELL A COLLEGE THAT ' S CURRENTLY OPEN AND PERFORMANCES AND HAS A LOT OF OUR PUPILS ATTENDING IT WHO INTEND TO DO SOME THINGS FOR THEM.I ' M VOTING NOR RESOLUTION AND ADVISE COLLEAGUES TO PERFORM THE SAME. >> > > THANK YOU, COUNCIL MEMBER. OTHER REMARKS OR QUESTIONS AT THIS POINT? I HAVE A FEW. I'' VE SEEN THE SCHOOL RECOGNIZED AS A TEENAGER CFA INSTITUTION. COULD YOU TALK ABOUT WHAT THAT INDICATES? >> > > NETWORK CHARTER COLLEGES. THERE WAS A FAMILY THAT GAVE AWAY A GREAT DEAL OF MONEY TO IMPROVE EDUCATION. IT IS NOT A CMO. WE DO NOT PROVIDE ANY CASH. THEY HAVE GIVEN United States SOME GRANTS AND IT E ENABLES US TO, RATHER THAN OPERATING ALL BY OURSELVES, A NETWORK OF SCHOOLS TO TALK WITH AND TO SHOT TO ADDRESS TROUBLES WITH AND SO ON.BUT THAT'' S ALL IT IS. > > YEAH. I RECOGNIZE THAT TEENAGER CFA AND I'' M UNSURE IF'YOU ' LL HAVE THE ABILITY TO TALK ABOUT THIS BUT I ' LL TELL YOU SOMETHING THAT PROVIDES ME ISSUE IS TEEN CFA LO QUOTE IN LEGISLATURE FOR THE INGENIOUS INSTITUTION AREA WHICH AS YOU'' RE PROBABLY AWARE IS STATE-WIDE SCHOOL AREA WHICH THROUGH THAT, THE STATE WAS GOING TO TAKE CONTROL OF POTENTIALLY UH TWO OF OUR DURHAM PUBLIC SCHOOLS GRADE SCHOOL. THIS WAS VERY UNCOMFORTABLE TO MOST OF US, MYSELF INCHUDED. THAT DIDN'' T WIND UP OCCURRING BUT THEY DID TAKE CONTROL OF ROBESON REGION INSTITUTION WHICH IS CURRENTLY MANAGED BY TEENAGER CFA, AND I AM– I HAVE A GREAT DEAL OF CONCERNS ABOUT THIS.DO YOU HAVE ANY THOUGHTS REGARDING THAT? ANY UH COMMENTS? > > I THINK IT ' >> S VITAL TO MAKE THE DIFFERENCE THAT TEEN CFA WHILE THEY DEAL SUPPORT THROUGH THESE GRANTS AND TRAINING FOR THE EDUCATORS TO IMPROVE THEIR SKILLS, AND SO ON, THEY DON'' T DO, DON ' T HAVE ANY MANAGEMENT POWER OVER THE SCHOOL. THE COLLEGE IS COMPLETELY MANAGED BY THE SCHOOL BOARD, AND WHILE THERE ARE, THERE IS ONE TEENAGER CFA REPRESENTATIVE ON THE INSTITUTION'' S BOARD, HE ' S IN THE MINORITY, COMPLETELY. SO THE IMPORTANT TAKEAWAY IS THAT ST COLLEGE REGULATES ITSELF, THE INSTITUTION I MANAGED BY ITSELF AND IS NOT INFLUENCED OR IN ANY OTHER WAY CONTROLLED BY TEEN CFA. >> > > ADVERTISEMENT THE SCHOOL IS RESIDENT NON-PROFIT BOARD? >> > > YES >>. > > I WOULD SIMPLY LIKE TO ADD THAT THIS IS An INSTRUCTIONS TEEN CFA HAS TAKEN SINCE WE BECAME A TEENAGER CFA COLLEGE. IT WAS NOT SOMETHING WE HAD ANYTHING TO PERFORM WIH. >> > > THANK YOU. ANY OTHER QUESTIONS OR REMARKS?

IF WE DISASSOCIATED WE WOULD HAVE TO PAY UH THAT BACK, , BUT IN IF FIRST THREE YEARS WE GOT ONE YEARLY AND THIS IS OUR FOURTH YEAR.THE FIRST
YEAR WILL BE FORGIVEN IN THE SECOND, IN THE FIFTH YEAR THE SECONDLY YEAR AND IN SIX YEAR, THE THIRD WILL CERTAINLY BE FORGIVEN. IT WOULD BE DIFFICULT TO HAVE TO PAY THAT BACK, SO RIGHT NOW WE ARE NOT CONSIDERING IT FOR THE TIME BEING. >> > > ANY LONGER DOUBTS OR COMMENTS? >> IF I MIGHT, > >. THANKS. THE PARTICIPANTS OF THE CFA, THE EXCELSIOR PERSONNEL, I HAD MANY KNOCK-DOWN AND DRAG-OUT COMBATS WITH THE CFA INDIVIDUAL MOST OF THE TIME ON PROBLEMS AND POLITICS THAT HAD ABSOLUTELY NOTHING TO DO WITH THE COLLEGE. LOTS, AND THEY'' RE WELL-DOCUMENTED. AMONG THE ASSURANCES THAT THE LIMITS OF ASHUNSS THAT HAD TO BE CROSSED FOR ME WAS THAT THE INSTITUTION WOULD BE LOCALLY MANAGED. I KEEP IN MIND STATING TO AMONG THEIR OFFICIALS IS IF YOU DESIRED TO CREATE United States A CHECK AND LET US DETERMINE HOW WE RUN MATTERS, SO BE IT, BUT IF IT'' S NOT GOING TO BE IN THIS WAY, THEN WE'' RE GOING TO HAVE SOME CONCERNS. ONCE AGAIN, THIS IS– THE RANGE OF OUR DECISION TONIGHT IS THS RESOLUTION AND I KNOW– AS I CLAIMED PRIOR TO, IT'' S TEMPTING TO USAGE THIS AS An ALUMINUM FOIL TO HAVE LARGER CONVERSATIONS ABOUT CHARTER SHOOL WHICH IS WE REQUIREMENT TO HAVE BUT I SIMPLY INTENDED TO ENSURE THAT WE'' RE NOT MUDDYING THE PROBLEM THAT'' S BEFORE US TONIGHT, WHICH IS THIS IS An INSTITUTION THAT IS OPEN NOW, IT ' S FUNCTIONING CURRENTLY, IT'' S OFFERING DURHAM RESIDENCE RIGHT NOW AND I ASSUME THAT WE NEED NOT LOSE THAT AND ALLOW'' S HAVE A DISPUTE ABOUT COLLEGES AND CHARTER SCHOOLS VERSUS CONVENTIONAL SCHOOLS.USEFULLY THIS CHAMBER WHEN ISSUES OF EDUCATION TURN UP THIS BODY IS RED SENT TO TAKE A DEEP DIVE BECAUSE IT ' S NOT WITHIN OUR PER VIEW SO IT'' S RATHER RATE OF INTEREST K TONIGHT THAT WE ' RE DOING PRECISELY WHAT I E INDICATED. I ASSUME WE'' RE USING THIS AS An ALUMINUM FOIL UH TO EXERCISE PHILOSOPHICAL DEBATE ON CHARTER INSTITUTIONS. I DON'' T THINK THIS IS APPROPRIATE CONCERN. I BELIEVE THERE ARE GOOD ARGUMENTS AND THERE MUCH QUALITY TO THE ARGUMENT ON WHAT'' S BEING CLAIMED RIGHT HERE THIS EVENING, BUT I BELIEVE IN FAIRNESS QUITE HONESTLY, THIS ISSUE IS EXTREMELY CERTAIN AND THE EXTENT IS DETERMINED, EXTENT HAS BEEN SET AND I BELIEVE WE NEED TO ACT ON THE RESOLUTION FOR WHAT IT'' S WORTH AND WHAT IT CONTAINS.
>> > > THANK YOU, COUNCIL MEMBER. ANY OTHER COMMENTS? COUNCIL MEMBER ALSTON. >> >'> I ' M FIGHTING WITH THIS DECISION DUE TO THE FACT THAT IT'' S DIFFICULT TO OVERLOOK WHAT I UH SEE AS A THREAT THAT CHARTER INSTITUTIONS PLAY TO THE RESOURCES AND TAENT AND SECURITIES OF OUR PUBLIC INSTITUTION SYSTEM AND IT'' S TOUGH FOR ME TO DISAFFILIATE THAT CONCERN FROM THIS ITEM THAT'' S BEFORE United States. I DO KIND OF IN LIGHT OF THAT, ASSISTANCE ME UNDERSTAND IF THIS RESOLUTION WERE TO NOT PASS AND YOU WEREN'' T ABLE TO HAVE FINANCES AVAILABLE TO PURCHASE THE BUILDING, WHAT'' S FALLBACK TO THE LEVEL– IF YOU'' RE UNABLE TO P PURCHASE IT WITH THESE FUNDS? >> > > NOW, THE INSTITUTION ALREADY ACTUALLY UH HAS AN MEANTIME LOAN THAT IT HAS MADE USE OF TO PURCHASE THE BUILDING.IT HAD TO ACCOMPLISH THAT IN
ORDER TO GET THE IMPROVEMENTS YOUNG DUE TO THE FACT THAT THE ACADEMIC YEAR BEGAN ON AUGUST 1ST. THEY OWN THE STRUCTURE. THEY WOULD THEN NEED TO RE-FINANCE, THAT ' S INTERIM FINANCING CELLULAR LINING'UP IRREVERSIBLE FINANCING. THEY WOULD THEN HAVE TO GO GET A TAXED FUNDING TO ACCOMPLISH THAT WHICH WOULD JUST EXPENSE MORE AND WOULD SIMPLY BE MORE OPERATING DOLLARS GOING TO BRICKS AND MORTAR AND LESS TO RESOURCES FOR RUNNING THE INSTITUTION. > > THANKS. > > COMMENTS OR QUESTIONS >>? MAYOR PRO TEM AND> AFTER THAT COUNCIL MEMBER FREEMAN. > > MANY THANKS. E I ALSO FIND THIS PROBLEM >> VERY COMPLEX. AS A PARENT, I UH FEEL EXTREMELY HIGHLY THAT I UH UNDERSTAND WHY PARENTS IN THIS COMMUNITY NEED TO GO AFTER IDEAL POSSIBLE ACADEMIC END RESULTS FOR THEIR CHILDREN.I ALSO INTEND TO GO AFTER BEST END RESULT FOR MY OWN CHILDREN BUT I PUT ON ' T THINK WE CAN NEGLECT THE LARGER SOCIAL EFFECT OF THAT DECISION AND THAT WE AS A BODY COULD NEGLECT LARGER SOCIAL IMPACTS OF A DECISION TO SUPPORT THE GROWTH OF A CHARTER COLLEGE IN OUR NEIGHBORHOOD. WE CONTAINER ' T STOP THE STATE OF NORTH CAROLINA FROM GRANTING AS MANY CHARTERS AS THEY NEED AND WE HAVE JUST RECENTLY SEEN THEY ' VE CHOSE LOT INCREASE THE ORIGINAL NUMBER OF CHARTER FROM 100 TO SOMETHING IN THE 170s As Opposed To FUNCTIONING AS LAB FOR TECHNOLOGY AND FOR EXPEDITION, I THINK CHARTERS ARE NOW BECOMING A SYSTEM BY WHICH PUBLIC EDUCATION AND LEARNING IN OUR STATE AND NEIGHBORHOOD IS BEING THREATENED AND BEING HARMED, AND WE CANISTER ' T STOP THE STATE FROM STETTING UP INNOVATIVE INSTITUTION AREA THAT WOULD HAND OVER CONTROL OF LOCAL SCHOOLS TO A CHARTER BOARD THAT IS RUN BY INDIVIDUALS THAT HAVE PUT THEIR PERSONAL FORTUNED INTO EXPANDING CHARTERS AOUND THE COUNTRY UH ALONG WITH DONATING TO POLITICIANS.THERE ARE A WHOLE LOT OF SOCIAL and political IMPLICATIONS OF THIS SELECTION AND I ASSUME WE HAVE AN CHANCE, TONIGHT, TO ACTUALLY DO SOMETHING, BUT WE CONTAINER QUIT THE STATE OF NORTH CAROLINA FROM ARE DOING WHAT THEY WANT WITH RESPECT TO EXPANSION OF CHARTER SCHOOLS BUT WE HAVE DISCRETION NOT TO ASSIST THAT, NOT TO CONTRIBUTE OUR CITY ' S STAMP TO THAT VENTURE, AND GIVEN THE REALITY THAT EVERY PUPIL THAT GOES TO A CHARTER IS TAKEN RESOURCES AWAY E UH FROM PUBLIC SYSTEM THAT THE MAJORITY OF OUR PUPIL DEPEND ON THAT MEANS BULK OF LOW INCOME CONTINUE TO RELY UPON I REALLY FEEL UNEASY MAKING CHOICE THAT I REALLY FEEL DIRECTLY EFFECTS THE VIABILITITY AND FUTURE OF OUR PUBLIC SYSTEM.

>> WE SHOULD ALL UNDERSTAND THAT THE SCENARIO THAT ' S BEEN PRODUCED HAS ACTUALLY BEEN CREATED BY THE METHOD FINANCING TAKES PLACE FOR OUR SCHOOLS. THE CONCERN I TAKE PARTICULARLY IN THIS INSTANCE IS THAT THIS CHARTER SCHOOL HAS ACTUALLY BEEN BOUND UP ON THE BASIS OF HOW OUR SYSTEM IS SET UP.IT ' S NOT THE CHARTER ' S FAULT THAT THEY DON ' T HAVE THE FUNDS TO PURCHASE THE BUILDING IN ORDER TO RUN. THE TRUTH THAT CFA IS FEEDING OFF OF THEM DOES NOT MEAN WE NEED TO LIKEWISE KICK THEM IN THE INTESTINE AND THEN SEE TO IT THAT THEY CANISTER'' T RUN IN THE SAME– I DISCOVER IT QUITE OFFENSIVE THAT WE WOULD EVEN CONSIDER UTILIZING THIS AS AN POSSIBILITY TO VIRTUALLY PUSH A CHARTER INSTITUTION BANKRUPT. THERE ' S ADEQUATE HAPPENING WITH OUR CHILDREN IN THIS CITY AROUND IMMIGRATION AND AFTER THAT YOU WANT TO ADD EDUCATION. THESE ARE NOT THE METHODS WHICH YOU DEAL WITH ADJUSTING TO THE SYSTEM. YOU NEED TO TAKE THE ACTIONS THAT WE DEMAND TO TAKE TO ACTUALLY ADDRESS THE ISSUES AROUND A BIGOTRY AND SYSTEMATIC AND INSTITUTIONAL RACE SCHISM SO WE HIT THE ISSUE AT THE ORIGIN NOT SELECTING AND PICKING INDIVIDUALS TO BE HURT BY OUR RULES.THIS IS NOT THE CHANCE TO ACCOMPLISH ANYTHING OF THE TYPE. IT ' S REALLY MORE HAZARDOUS TO PUT THEM AT THREAT OF TAKING MORE CASH FROM A CFA OR ANY OTHER ORGANIZATION THAT WOULD SHOT AND ENTER INTO THE STATE AND PUT THEM AT
RISK OF THEIR BOARD BEING– I INDICATE THIS IS FRUSTRATING BECAUSE I COMPREHEND THE FILL STOF PHONE CALL DISAGREEMENTS AND DISCUSSIONS TOO– THOUGHTFUL DISAGREEMENTS AND DEBATES TOO IN WHICH HOW THE NORTH CAROLINA STATE ASSEMBLY HAS ASSIGNED FUNDS TO INSTITUTIONS. WE WOULD NOT BE RESTING HERE HAVING THIS DISCUSSION IF THEY WERE THE NORTH CAROLINA INSTITUTION OF MATH AND SCIENTIFIC RESEARCH WHICH IS ALSO A CHARTER.SIT A STATE CHARTER. > > SIT A PUBLICLY-FUNDED– > > COUNCIL MEMBER. > > IT IS OPERATING IN SAME FASHION. THOSE FUNDS ARE ALLOCATED IN THE VERY SAME WAY AND WE E CAN NOT SIT HERE AND SAY JUST DUE TO THE FACT THAT IT ' S EXCELSIOR THAT WE

IN THIS INSTANCE YOU WOULD BE HARMING TRAINEES GOING TO THAT INSTITUTION. THE PARENTS OF THOSE TRAINEES. APPROVING THIS FUNDING– WE DON ' T PAY ANY FINANCING. WE ' RE NOT RESPONSIBLE FOR ANY ONE OF THEIR FUNDING. THE INSTITUTION IS. THIS IS NOT THE FOOTBALL WE WISH TO TOSS. THIS IS NOT THE SITUATION. I WILL CERTAINLY GO TO THE MAT ON DEFENDING PUBLIC SCHOOLS. THIS IS NOT HOW'YOU DO IT. > >'THANK YOU.

FOR A REALLY SPIRITED DISCUSSION ABOUT DIFFICULT PROBLEMS. I THINK WHAT >> THE DISCUSSION TONIGHT EXPOSES TO ME >> IS THAT THE POLICIES HAVE BEEN ESTABLISHED TO COMPEL NEIGHBORHOODS TO HAVE THESE KINDS OF REALLY TOUGH CONVERSATIONS. UM, I AM A MOMS AND DAD OF 2 KIDS IN OUR PUBLIC SCHOOLS. I WEAR ' T WANT TO CAST A BALLOT THAT WILL CERTAINLY DAMAGE THEIR SCHOOLS OR ANY OTHER SCHOOL IN OUR PUBLIC SYSTEM, AND TO THE EXTENT THAT THIS BALLOT THAT WE ' RE GOING IF TAKE TODAY ACCREDITS THE ISSUANCE OF BONDS THAT FUND THE PURCHASE AND GROWTHS OF WHAT APPEARS TO BE A SUPERB CHARTER COLLEGE THAT DOES SO MUCH OF THE THINGS WE WISH ALL CHARTER SCHOOLS WOULD CARRY OUT IN THIS STATE WHICH'WAS PARTIALLY STARTED AND DEVELOPED BY MY GOOD FRIEND AND COLLEAGUE AT THE OPPOSITE SIDE OF THE DAIS.IT ' S GOING TO BROADEN YOUR INSTITUTION. BECAUSE MORE CHILDREN WILL BE GOING THERE, even more DURHAM KIDS ARE GOING TO GO TO YOUR SCHOOL AND MORE OF OUR TAX OBLIGATION DOLLARS ARE GOING TO GO TO YOUR COLLEGE. THAT ' S THE CORE OF THE PROBLEM WE
' RE HAVING IS THAT THE VOTE THAT WE CAST TONIGHT COULD CONVENIENTLY TRIGGER FEWER DOLLAR TO GO TO OUR PUBLIC COLLEGE SYSTEM. I TIN ' T DO THAT. I UH UNDERSTAND– YOU ' RE LIKE I SAID I DESIRED EVERY CHARTER COLLEGE IN THE STATE WOULD'DO MATTERS YOU TO FOR THE KIDS. I HAD SAME EYE OF DIVERSE OF POPULACE, CUISINES AND TRANSPORTATION, BUT FROM MY PERSPECTIVE, I WON ' T CAST A BALLOT THAT WOULD DO THAT AND I ' M RATHER COMFORTED BY THE FACT THAT THERE ARE WHOLE LOTS OF OTHER GOVERNMENTAL ENTITIES THAT CONTAINER SUPPLY THIS PERMISSION FOR YOU. I JUST PUT ON ' T BELIEVE THIS BODY SHOULD BE ONE OF THEM. THANKS. > > MR. MAYOR. I THINK MY ASSOCIATE FOR THE RECOMMENDATION.

SINCE THE LAST TIME THIS CASE WAS BEFORE YOU WE ' VE HAD CHANCE TO REVISE DEVELOPMENT PLAN AND I INTENDED TO TOUCH BRIEFLY ON THE CHANGES.

IN ORDER TO MAINTAIN THE EXACT SAME SPACING OFF, WE BOOST ISSED CONSTRAINT ON STRUCTURE PLACEMENT NAERP SOUTHERN HOME FROM 60 TO 70 FEET. WE ' RE DOUBLING SILT FENCE TO BETTER CONTROL EROSION.LOOKING AT BROAD VIEW FOR DURHAM, MY BELIEF IS THAT INDIVIDUALS THAT OPPOSE THIS REZONING GENERALLY LIVE IN HOUSING BUILT IN 1980s. I UH REF ARE RENS THAT BECAUSE IT ' S THE TIME DESCRIBED IN HOUSING DEVELOPMENT TOOL PACKAGE LAUNCHED BY PRSIDENT OBAMA ' S MANAGEMENT WHEN HE PUT SPOTLIGHT ON HOW CITIES CAN INCLUDE NEW INUH COLLUSIVE REAL ESTATE. I PRICE ESTIMATE, OVER THE PAST 3 DECADES REGIONAL OBSTACLES HAVE ACTUALLY INTENSIFIED PARTICULARLY UH IN HIGH DEVELOPMENT AREAS PROGRESSIVELY SUSTAINING NATIONAL ECONOMIC CLIMATE. RESEARCHER CHECKING OUT PROXY STEPS HAVE DISCOVERED OBSTACLES TO REAL ESTATE GROWTH RISE RAPIDLY UH FROM 1970-1990 AND CONTINUE TO INCREASE THROUGH PRESENT DAY. FOR DECADES SUNLIGHT BELT CITIES WITH EVEN MORE PERMANENTABLE BORDERS HAVE DELIGHTS IN OUTSIZED GROWTH BY ALLOWING SPRAWL TO MEET THEIR NEED FOR REAL ESTATE SUPPLY. ROOM CONSTRAINED CITIES CANISTER ACCOMPLISH COMPARABLE DEVELOPMENT BY IN FILL. MOST GOES THROUGH EVALUATION PROCEDURE SUCH AS P PUBLIC HEARINGS, THESE PROCEDURES INCLINE DEVELOPMENT DECISIONS TO END UP BEING CENTERS OF CONFLICT AND CAN ADD SIGNIFICANT EXPENSE TO BUDGET AS A RESULT OF DELAY AND UNCERTAINTY.TRADE-OFF PROGRAMMERS MAKE CAUSE LOST AFFORDABILITY QUALITY OR QUANTITY OF UNITS DEVELOPED. WHEN NEW HOUSING ADVANCEMENT IS LIMITED REGION-WIDE AND PARTICULARLY I PREVENTED IN COMMUNITIES WITH POLITICAL TAP TALL TO IMPLEMENT STRICTER BARRIERS ANY NEW GROWTH TENDS TO BE CONCENTRATED IN LOW INCOME NEIGHBORHOOD IS OF SHADE CAUSING DISPLACEMENT AND WORRY ABOUT GENTRIFICATIONS IN THOSE COMMUNITY RAISING MARKET RENTS WHILE STOPPING WORKING TO MINIMIZE REAL ESTATE EXPENSE DEVELOPMENT REGION WIDE. HAS MEANT EXPANDING HOME VALUES -FOR EXISTING HOME OWNERS BARRIERS CONCENTRATE THOSE AMONGST EXISTING HOME OWNERS PUSHING EXPENSES OF POSSESSION OUT OF REACH FOR FIRST-TIME BUYERS AND AVAILABLE OF HIGH QUALITY HOUSING IS FOUNDATIONAL FOR EACH FAMILY.IT FIGURES OUT WHICH TASKS, WHICH COLLEGES, AND JUST HOW MUCH TIME THEY SPEND WITH EACH OTHER AT THE END OF A DAY. UNQUOTE. I UH RELATIONSHIP THIS PAPER ALMOST TWOER YEARS AGO THROUGHOUT A ZONING MAP ADJUSTMENT WHERE I FOUND SOME HOMES DECLINED. I E DO NOT THINK THERE HAVE BEEN COMPARABLE LOSSES IN RESIDENTIAL DURHAM IN SOUTH DURHAM. PROBLEMS ELEVATED IN THIS REPORT ARE EVEN MORE VITAL ABOUT THIS SITUATION. ENVISION HOUSE RECOGNIZES DEMAND FOR BOTH SUBSIDIZED BUDGET-FRIENDLY HOUSING AND MARKET RATE INEXPENSIVE REAL ESTATE TO OFFER MISSING OUT ON MIDDLE.
ON A TASK OF THIS SIZE THEY ' RE HOPING TO ATTAIN MARKET RATE AFFORDABILITY, IMPORTANT PROBLEM. HAVING ACTUALLY EXAMINED AFFORDABLE HOUSING COMMITMENTS, THE COMMON COUNCIL HAS AUTHORIZED ON OTHER PROJECTS THE STANDARD COMMITMENT IS AROUND$ 500 PER DEVICE. ENSLIGS DOUBLE THAT QUANTITY AS WE ' RE PROFFERING TO PAY TO AFFORDABLE REAL ESTATE FUND ACTUAL TO$25,000. WE RESPECTFULLY REQUEST YOUR APPROVAL.

WE TRIED TO PROVIDE HIM A BETTER LIFESTYLE, WE CONVERTED OUR SGEEK A SUN PARLOR'WITH A GREAT DEAL OF LIGHT– DECK INTO A SUN SPACE WITH A LOT OF LIGHT. YOU SEE TREES AND A GREAT DEAL OF NATURE.

SECOND WORRY I HAVE IS WEB TRAFFIC ON FREEWAY 54. MY BOY WAS APPEAL 54 BY'A CARS AND TRUCK WITH A MOTORIST THAT HAD NO LICENSE. WE WON ' T GO ANY FURTHER WITH THAT, BUT I DON ' T CARE HOW LOTS HOUSE YOU PUT THERE, IT ' S GOING ADD WEB TRAFFIC TO FREEWAY 54. JUST RECENTLY AT 2:00 A.M. ON A SUNDAY EARLY MORNING WE HAD TO TAKE ANDY TO THE MEDICAL FACILITY TO GO OUT ON HIGHWAY 54 FROM THE ENTRANCE INTO WOODCROFT, WE HAD TO WAIT UNTIL 4 AUTOS'TO MANAGE SO WE COULD HOP ON HIGHWAY 54 TO HEAD TO COLLEGE HOSPITAL.THOSE ARE MY 2 WORRIES.

I RECOGNIZE AND APPROVE THE DISCOVERING THERE WAS NO VIOLATION OF THE COUNTY ETHICS PLAN. AT THE SAME TIME IT ' S GOING TO BE DIFFICULT TO ACCEPT THAT THE DECISION OF THE PREPARING BOARD WAS COMPLETELY UNTAINTED BY EVENTS THAT UNFOLDED AFTERWARD. TH THERE WAS A SPIRITED DEFENSE OF THIS AND THE TRUTH THAT WAS ADHERED TO BY HIRING >> AS LEGAL AGENT IS SIMPLY VERY DIFFICULT TO ACCEPT.AGAIN, I COMPREHEND >> THERE ' >> S BEEN SEARCHING FOR THERE IS NO CONFLICT THERE. SECOND POINT THAT I WISHED TO INCREASE IS ABOUT WEB TRAFFIC. I RECOGNIZE THAT >> DEARTMENT OF TRANSPORT HAS ACTUALLY SAID QUANTITY OF WEB TRAFFIC FROM THIS DEVELOPMENT WILL CERTAINLY BE SMALL COMPARED TO WEB TRAFFIC THAT ' S ALREADY PRESENT ON 54; HOWEVER, IT DOESN ' T SEEM THAT EASY EVALUATION IN REQUISITES OF PERCENTAGE RISE CONSIDERS THIS AREA. WE HAVE FREQUENT ACCIDENTS THERE WHERE PEOPLE STOP TO TURN AND PEOPLE TURN UP BEHIND THEM OR WHEN PEOPLE SHOT TO TURN AND SOMEBODY ELSE IS COMING THE VARIOUS OTHER METHOD. PERISH EVEN MORE GROWTH, WITH A BUS QUIT, STOPPING ON 54 AT A PLACE WHERE THERE ' S A HILL, WE ' RE CONCERNED THERE WILL CERTAINLY BE GREATER THREAT OF SERIOUS WEBSITE TRAFFIC ACCIDENTS THERE.
THIRD POINT I WANTED TO MAKE ENTAILS STORMWATER OVERFLOW; WE SPOKE ABOUT THIS AT SOME LENGTH.AGAIN, WE UNDERSTAND THAT SPECIFIC COMMITMENTS FOR HOW CATCH PONDS THEREFORE FORT ARE GOING TO BE PREPARED WON ' T BE CREATED TILL IT ' S TIME FOR ANOTHER PERSON STAGE OF THE ADVANCEMENT PLANNING BUT AT THE VERY SAME TIME WHILE THIS BUILDING IS ZONED FOR APPROXIMATELY FOUR UNITS PER ACRE SOMEHOW, THT DOESN ' T IMMEDIATELY MAKE IT FEASIBLE FOR EVERY SINGLE ACRE TO UH SUPPORT 4 SYSTEMS. THESE ARE GOING TO HAVE TO BE ARRANGED IN SUCH A WAY FOR CATCH FISH PONDS AND ZONE GUIDELINE DOS NOT REALLY OVERRULE REGULATIONS OF PHYSICS. YOU TIN ' T HAVE A SLOPED CATCH FISH POND. WE ARE REALLY CONCERNED REGARDING HOW YOU ' RE GOING CONSTRUCT A CATCH POND THAT WILL CERTAINLY HOLD THIS QUANTITY OF OVERFLOW A WITH RISK-FREE RETAINING WALLS ON THE VERY STEEP SLOPE WHERE FISH POND WILL CERTAINLY NEED TO LIVE.

HENDERSON HOUSING FACILITY TAKE OUR MESSAGE TO OTHER—- THIS GLIDE IS FROM OUR FIRST SURVEY WHICH IS AUGUST 2017 AND THE LARGEST WORDS ARE WORDS STATED OVER AND OVER ONCE AGAIN THROUGH THAT PROCEDURE. ALMOST 2 LOTS INDIVIDUALS PARTICIPATE IN WORKSHOP IN 2017. BECAUSE THE QUARTER IT ' S NOT LIKE A 12-FOOT WIDE ALIGNMENT, the RESPONSE HAS BEEN OVERWHELMINGLY FAVORABLE IN TERMLESS OF HAVING LINEAR PARK. THERE ' S OPPORTUNITY TO PERFORM OTHER THINGS THERE FROM PHOTOS SHOWN.OTHER THAN THE WORKSHOPS THAT WE HELD, ADDITIONAL OUTREACH IN OCTOBER, WE UNDERSTOOD THAT THE PLAN WAS ESTABLISHED OVER WINTER AND SRING THAT WE NEEDED TO REALLY KICK UP THE OUTREACH AND ALSO BASED ON COMMENTS THAT WE
HAD HEARD IN COMMUNITIES WE FELT HAD NOT BEEN INVOLVED. SECOND WORKSHOP IN JUNE 2018, THERE WERE 495 RESIDENCES TO WHICH POSTCARDS WERE MAIL AND THOSE LOCATED WITHIN FIVE HUNDRED FEET OF THE BELT LINE, ITSELF.ANNOUNCEMENTS WE HAD FLYERS IN ADDITION TO POSTCARDS SEASONED TO SIX CHURCHES THAT WERE NEAR THE HALLWAY AND THERE WERE BACKYARD INDICATORS AT SIX INTERSECTIONS IN THE AREA AND ALSO POSTERS WERE POSITIONED IN 52 SERVICES AND ORGANIZATIONS IN AND AROUND THE LOCATION.
THOSE WERE SOME EFFORTS TO OBTAIN– SO A THAT AT THAT JUNE WORKSHOP WE HAD A PRETTY GOOD YIELDS AND RATHER DIVERSE TURNOUT. WE ' VE USED ALL COMMENTS FROM CONFERENCES CONSISTING OF WORKSHOP THIS YEAR TO [INDISTINCT] VISIONER FOR THE BELT LINE ROUTE MASTER STRATEGY AND IT ' S UP THERE. THE VISION IS TO BE A VIVID GREEN ROOM LINKING NEIGHBORHOODS TO TH HEART OF DURHAM. I BELIEVE THAT WAS ABOUT ALL I WAS GOING TO SPEAK TO YOU.YOU CONTAINER SEE INSCRIBED ON THE RAIL IS QUOTE FROM LANGSTONG HUGHES. JAKE ' S GOING TO TALK ABOUT EFFORTS AND DESIGN EMPHASIS FOR THE JOB AND I ' M PLEASED TO SOLUTION ANY OTHER QUESTIONS REGARDING ENGAGEMENT EFFORTS LATER. THANKS. > > THANK YOU, MS. TURNER.
> > JAKE P PETROSKY WITH STEWART DESIGN. WE HAE THE GENERAL VISION. BOOST HIGH QUALITY OF LIFE BY INCREASING ACCESS GREEN ROOM. ENHANCE AND MAINTAIN COMMUNITIES AND MAKE CERTAIN FAIR GAIN ACCESS TO. GOALS CAME WITH BY A NUMBER OF PREPARING >> PRINCIPLES AND DESIGN PRINCE> P– CONCEPTS. THEY ' RE MEANT TO BE A CAPTURE OF THE INPUT AT THE TIME AND THEY ' RE MEANT TO DEVELOP WITH THE BELT LINE. THAT ' S CRUCIAL POINT. THE TRAIL, ITSELF REALLY TRAVERSES THREE AREAS. ONE IS URBAN SECTION. THE GREEN LOCATION STARTS IN MIDTOWN AND'EXTENDS AS MUCH AS TRINITY OPPORTUNITY. THIS IS IN WHICH THERE ' S GOING TO BE THE MANY WEBSITE TRAFFIC IN STIPULATIONS OF USERS. PICTURED TO BE HAVE A DIFFERENT BIKE ZONE AND PEDESTRIAN AREA HIGHLIGHTED IN TOP RIGHT AND FIT HIGH QUANTITIES OF PEDESTRIANS AND BICYCLISTS AND JOGGERS AND CANINE WALKERS, ETC.IF WE ' RE SUCCESSFUL IN THIS, WE ' RE GOING TO REQUIREMENT THAT SPLITTING UP IN ORDER TO KEEP A SECURE TRAIL FOR ALL CUSTOMERS. THE CONSERVATION AND REMEDIATION SECTION FROM TRINITY AVENUE UP TO ABOUT GLENDALE IS WHERE THE ROUTE CHANGE FROM URBAN INTO SOMETHING DIFFERENT.
ON THE WEST SIDE IS SOUTH ELLERBEE CREEK STORMWATER REPAIR AND RIGHT IS HISTORIC PEARL MILL TOWN. WE INTEND TO BE SENSITIVE OF THOSE HISTORIC and all-natural PROPERTIES VIA THIS LOCATION. ALSO SEEK OPPORTUNITIES FOR RECONSTRUCTION ALSO WHICH I ' LL DISCUSS LATER. NEIGHBORHOOD SECTION REALLY AGAINING IN GLENDALE AND INCREASING EASTWARD CHANGES CONTEXT ONCE MORE. NEARBY RESIDENTIAL DEVELOPMENT REQUISITES OF USERS IN THE CHARACTER OF THE PATH CAN ADJUSTMENT AGAIN THERE. SOME PRECEDENTS WE LOOKED AT IS THE INDIANAPOLIS CULTURAL PATH AND THE KATIE UH ROUTE IN DALLAS.– KATY TRAIL IN DALLAS. CONSTRICTED AREA WILL CERTAINLY BE FOR ROADWAY CROSS AND WHERE ELEVATION AND RIGHT-OF-WAY RESTRICTIONS NECESSITATE A SMALLER FINGER PRINT. AREA SAMPLES IS MEANT TO BE SMALLER FINGER PRINT AND HAVE 12 FOOT GREENWAY AND NATURAL SURFACE PATH FOR STROLLING OR RUNNING P THAT ' S SOMETHING A GREAT DEAL OF THE RESPONSES LISTENED TO WISHED TO INCLUDE IF IN ALL POSSIBLE. THE NEXT FEW SLIDES GIVE MORE INFORMATION ON THE THEORETICAL STYLE OF THE TRAIL. THIS SLIDE REVEALS THE SOUTHERNMOST SECTION OF THE ROUTE ADJACENT TO THE FUTURE PUBLIC TRANSPORTATION TERMINAL NEAR CHAPEL THERE ' S OPPORTUNITY FO URBAN PARK FRAMED BY CHAPEL HILLSIDE AND MORGAN AND GREAT JONES STREET.FOR PREPARING PURPOSES, THE CONCEPTUAL LAYOUT ELEMENTS IN A POSSIBLE TWO-WAY CONVERSION OF FANTASTIC JONES STREET. WE INTENDED TO SEE EVEN WORSE INSTANCE SCENARIO THERE. THERE ' S OPTIONS FOR THIS URBAN PARK. CITY-OWNED LAND BESIDE THE PATH COULD BE REPURPOSED FOR PUBLIC SPACE, A NEW'MUSEUM OF DURHAM HISTORY BUILDING, OR IN-FILL GROWTH. WHATEVER YOU SELECT BUT WE ' RE SHOWING
IT AS PUBLIC ROOM TO SHOW POSSIBILITIES. CRITERIA FOR THIS SPACE INCLUDE NORTH END PARK IN BOSTON, CITYGARDEN IN ST. LOUIS OR ROMARE BEARDEN PARK IN CHARLOTTE.'AS WE ACTION NORTH ACROSS FERNWAY OPPORTUNITY WE RELOCATION INTO WHAT COULD BE THE ENTRANCE TO THE DEVELOPMENT AREA. THIS COULD BE AMONG THE BUSIEST SECTIONS OF THE PATH AS TRAIL-ORIENTED INFILL ADVANCEMENT IS LIKELY ON BOTH SIDES OF THE TRAIL.WE ARE SHOWING THE PRESERVATION OF THE HISTORIC RAILWAY GANTRY THAT COULD BE GATEWAY TO TECHNOLOGY AREA OR IF PASSING SOUTHWARD IT COULD BE ENTRANCE INTO DOWNTOWN. THE VIEW OPENS UP AND SEE SKY LINES. THERE ' S ALSO AND TRESTLE VIA THIS SECTION. IT ' S CURRENTLY ON PRIVATE LAND BUT WE ' RE PROVING CONSERVATION OF THAT AND WE WOULD HAVE TO FUNCTION WITH CITY WOULD HAVE TO COLLABORATE WITH LAND OWNERS ON THAT PARTICULAR BUT IT IS IS An EXCELLENT POSSIBILITY TO PRESERVE An ITEM OF RAILWAY PAST AND ALSO HAS EXCELLENT VIEWS OF SKYLINE OF MIDTOWN DURHAM WHICH WOULD BE NICE. THIS IS A CONCEPTUAL PICTURE THAT REVEALS WHAT THE ROUTE COULD APPEAR LIKE THROUGH THE TECHNOLOGY AREA. ACTIVE UTILIZES ARE RECOMMENDED FOR TRICK INTERSECTIONS OF THE PATH AND PUBLIC'ROADS AND PRESERVING– A THREADED PATH WOULD WEAVE AROUND A PRESERVED SECTION OF RAIL AND CONSERVING OR REPLANTING THE TREE COVER IS SUGGESTED HERE.WE GET TO PRESERVATION. CONNECTING PEOPLE TO THE ELLERBE CREEK WETLAND PARK AND TO THE SOUTH ELLERBE CREEK PATH, WHICH IS PART OF THE EAST SHORE GREENWAY, IS A PRIORITY IN THE AREA OF THE PATH JUST NORTH OF TRINITY AVENUE. THIS IS SOMETHING WE ' D WALKING TO CONNECT INDIVIDUALS TO. THIS SECTION LIKEWISE LINKED SOUTH ELLERBEE CREEK PATH FROM MAIN TO FLORIDA AND MAKING THAT LINK IS CONCERN IN THIS AREA. ILLUMINATION ON THE ROUTE WILL HAVE TO BE SENSITIVE TO THE
HISTORICAL PEARL MILL TOWN AREA. THE ROUTE WILL CERTAINLY GET ON ELEVATED PIECE OF GROUND, RAILROAD BED, MAKING SURE WE HAVE DOWNWARD-FACING SENSITIVE ILLUMINATION THAT DOESN ' T CONFLICT WITH HOME IS NECESSARY. THERE ARE GREAT DEALS OF CHANCE FOR ENVIRONMENTAL ART AND EDUCATION AND LEARNING ALONG THIS AREA. AS THE PATH CROSSES WASHINGTON ROAD, WE ARE SUGGESTING A CROSSING PLAZA WITH PAVERS THAT REDUCES VEHICULAR TRAFFIC FOR THE SAFETY OF ROUTE USERS. AROUND, YOU HAVE A WHOLE LOT OF ALSO CROSSWALKS AT DASHUN AND MACON. QUALITIES ZONED AS LIGHT INDUSTRIAL. REUSE AND REDEVELOPMENT IS POSSIBLE AROUND. IT ' S LIKELY NOT TO BE INDUSTRIAL. THINKING OF HOW TO DECREASING BARRIERS TO MISSING OUT ON MIDDLE REAL ESTATE TYPES AND NEIGHBORHOOD SCALE BUDGET FRIENDLY HOUSING IS RECOMMENDED TO ASSIST TRIGGER THE ROUTE SIDE. AS WE MOVE EAST AND RIGHT INTO THE AREA SECTION OF THE PATH THERE IS AN CHANCE TO BRING BACK a location and protect AROUND STRAYHORN SPRINGS WHICH IS LOCATED SIMPLY WEST OF GLENDALE AVENUE. PEDESTRIAN CONNECTIONS BETWEEN MACON STREET AND NORTH STREET RECONNECTING THOSE AREAS THAT WERE OFFERED 125 YEARS AGO. RELOCATING EAST, THE MANGUM STREET UNDERPASS IS
A TERRIFIC CHANCE FOR ART ALONG THE TRAIL. WE INTEND TO MAKE TAT A REFUGE. SOMEWHERE ELSE, TURNING THOSE UNDERPASSES RIGHT INTO ART OPPORTUNITIES HAS BEEN SUCCESSFUL MEANS TO ACTIVATE THOSE LOCATIONS. CITY-OWNED LAND AT ROXBORO STREET IS ENVISIONED TO BE A TRAILHEAD. THE MASTER PLAN ADDITIONALLY RECOMMENDS LOCATING A TRAILHEAD WITH SOME RECREATIONAL FACILITIES AND PROGRAMS AT AVONDALE DRIVE. INDIVIDUALS LOBBIED GREATLY FOR ACCESS THERE. ADDED OUTREACH IS RECOMMENDED TO FIGURE OUT PLACE AND STYLE OF THIS TRAILHEAD. SOME UNANSWERED QUESTIONS WITH THIS MASTER PLAN BUT AGAIN A LOT OF THINGS THAT REQUIRED TO BE FIGURED OUT DURING DESIGN PHASE. ACCESS TO OPEN SPACE AND PARKS IS A CONSIDERABLE NEED IN MIDTOWN AND ALONG THE NORTHERN AND EASTERN PART OF THE ROUTE. PATH WILL CERTAINLY ENHANCE GAIN ACCESS TO TO OPEN SPACE BY 52%. BASED ON A WELLNESS EVALUATION, AREAS ON THE EASTERN END OF THE PATH HAVE HIGHER RATES OF EXCESSIVE WEIGHT, HEART ILLNESS AND MENTAL HEALTH AND WELLNESS CONCERNS THAN THE REMAINDER OF DURHAM. AFTER THE ROUTE, HOUSEHOLDS WITH GAIN ACCESS TO TO OPEN AREA WILL CERTAINLY REMAIN IN An EXCELLENT LOCATION. THE PLAN OF ATTACK INCLUDES RECOMMENDATIONS FOR ENCOURAGING INFILL
AND AFFORDABLE HOUSING WE WORKED WITH INTENDING PERSONNEL TO REFERRAL ENCOURAGING IN FILL AND REAL ESTATE ALONG THE TRAIL. THIS IS AN PROBLEM NOT ONLY IN THE ROUTE PORTAL BUT OTHER COMPONENTS O CLOSE-IN NEIGHBORHOODS. CRIMINAL OFFENSE PREVENTION STRATEGIES UTILIZED ALONG THE ROUTE KNEW BY LESSONS LEARNED FROM AN ANALYSIS OF THE ATT. PRODUCING CROSSING PLAZAS THAT SPECIFY PUBLIC AND PRIVATE ROOM. THE PRESERVATION AND REPAIR OF EXISTING NATURAL COMMUNITIES IS ALSO A PRIORITY. COMPONENT OF THE NEXT STEPS IS TO DOCUMENTING THESE COMMUNITY UHS AND ENHANCING THEM. THE EXPENSE QUOTE IS BROKEN OUT AND INCLUDES$ 15.1 MILLION FOR THE TRAIL AND PATH ESSENTIALS.SOME OTHER PRICES, CONSISTING OF BIOSWALES, AND PARKS ARE DETAILED ON THE RIGHT SIDE AND COULD BE MONEYED INCREMENTALLY AS GRANTS OR PERSONAL FUNDS APPEAR. THE OVERALL TARGET FINANCING MIX FOR ALL PARTS OF THE ROUTE AND ASSOCIATED PUBLIC ROOMS IS SHOWN IN THE PIE CHARTS ON THIS SLIDE. THIS IS AN OVERALL CONCEPT FOR THE DURHAM BELT LINE THAT REVEALS AMENITIES AND KEY LINKS. FOLLOWING ACTIONS INCLUDE BUYING THE RIGHT OF WAY AND MOVING RIGHT INTO THE REAL STYLE PHASE OF THE PROJECT WHICH WILL CERTAINLY INVOLVE ADDITIONAL OUTREACH AND INVOLVEMENT TO CUSTOMIZE THE LAYOUT BASED ON NEEDS OF NEIGHBORHOODS. THERE ARE 2 BUSINESS STRUCTURE ALTERNATIVES FOR THE UPKEEP AND ADMINISTRATION OF THE DURHAM BELT LINE TRAIL. ONE IS A SOLITARY OR MULTIPLE AGENCY VERSION THAT IS LED BY THE CITY OF DURHAM.ANOTHER IS A PUBLIC-PRIVATE MODEL WHERE THERE IS A COMPANION ORGANIZATION THAT PLAYS A LARGER DUTY. THE JOBS RECEIVED THE BUBBLES LISTED BELOW THE OPTIONS ARE SIMPLIFIED AND COULD ADDITIONALLY CONSIST OF A NUMBER VARIOUS OTHER DUTIES. MANY OF THE GENERAL PUBLIC AREA ENHANCEMENTS ALONG THE PATH COULD BE MONEYED PRIVATELY AS IN OTHER CRITERION PROJECTS. THIS SLIDE SHOWS AN EXAMPLE OF A DONOR WALL FROM THE GREENSBORO MIDTOWN GREENWAY AT ONE OF THEIR TRADEMARK PARKS AND AN EXAMPLE OF FINANCING CHANCES FOR ELEMENTS ALONG THE PHILLY RAIL PARK. OVERALL THE DURHAM BELT LINE OUGHT TO BECOME PART OF A GREATER EQUITY PREPARATION CAMPAIGN THAT RESEARCHES HOW TO BOOST EQUITABLE ACCESS TO HOUSING, TRANSPORTATION, JOBS AND OPEN AREA IN CLOSE-IN NEIGHBORHOODS. THIS KIND OF PREPARATION IS IMPORTANT PRIOR TO THE BELT LINE IS CONSTRUCTED AND FUTURE PUBLIC AREA AND TRANSPORT RENOVATIONS, SUCH AS THE GREAT LOOPHOLE PROPOSED BY THE PARKS STRUCTURE, HAPPENS TO AREAS EAST AND SOUTH OF THE ROUTE. THIS IS THE BEGINNING OF THE PROCEDURE. THERE ' S MORE FUNCTION TO BE DONE. PLAN OF ATTACK IS MEANT TO BE BEGIN OF CONVERSATIONS. CHOICES ON DEDICATIONS ARE REQUIRED BY PUBLIC AND PRIVATE PARTNERS. HOPEFULLY THIS PLAN WILL BEGINNING THOSE CONVERSATIONS AND MOVE THEM FORWARD. APPLICATION TIMELINE FOR THE PLAN IS ELABORATED IN THE MASTER STRATEGY AND CONSISTS OF A MINIMUM OF THREE YEARS PRIOR TO BELT LINE IS CONSTRUCTIONED PROVIDING AMPLE TIME TO ADDRESS CONCERNS RELATED TO HOUSING AND EQUITIES OR PLAN RECOMMENDATIONS IN THE PLAN AND EQUITABLE PLANNING INITIATIVES. AND I BELIEVE THAT ' S IT. > > MANY THANKS SIGNIFICANTLY. ANY OTHER– ANYTHING ELSE FROM THE TEAM OR CONSUL ASSISTANTS– CONSUL CONSULT ANTS CURRENTLY? THANK
YOU. WE HAVE QUITE A VARIETY OF INDIVIDUALS AND IT ' S LATE SO I ' M GOING TO ASK INDIVIDUALS TO PLEASE SPEAK FOR TWO MINS AND ALLOW ME TO COUNT THE NUMBER OF INDIVIDUALS.

IF YOU ' D LIKE TO BO HEARD ON THIS PRODUCT, YO DEMAND TO VISIT THE TABLE OVER BELOW, FILL IN ONE OF THE YELLOW CARDS, O.K.? WHEN YOU ' VE DONE THAT, WE ' LL OBTAIN YOU IN LINE TO SPEAK AS WELL.I ' M GOING TO DECLARE PUBLIC HEARING OPEN AND WE'' RE GOING TO BEGIN, MR. MARTIN, YOU TWO MINS. SPECIFY NAME AND ADDRESS. > > JOHN MARTIN, 401 EAST TRINITY METHOD I OLD NORTH DURHAM. I AM THE HEAD OF STATE OF THE OLD NORTH DURHAM NEIGHBORHOOD WATCH WHICH IS BOARD HAS ACTUALLY SUPPORTED THIS PROPOSAL. WE DO ASSISTANCE THE STRATEGY TO GO AHEAD. THE DURHAM BELT LINE IS NORTHERN BORDER SEPARATING US FROM DUKE PARK AREA AND WESTERN COMPONENT OF THE BELT LINE IS SIMPLY LITTLE METHODS FROM THE WESTERN COMPONENT OF OUR COMMUNITY. IN PLACING THIS OUT IN NOT SIMPLY TO THE BOARD BUT ON THE LISTING SERVE, WHAT A LOT OF THE PEOPLE IN YOUR AREA COMMENTS CONCERNING WAS THAT THERE WERE TIRED OF AN OVERGROWN, DEBRIS-STREWN, IM IMPEN NATABLE A ABANDONED RAILWAY. WE DO HAVE A PARTICULARLY SERIOUS WORRY. WHEN THIS IS ADVANCE IT ' S SHOWN AS GOING TO AVONDALE DRIVE. IF YOU LOOK ON PAGE 94 >> IN THE MASTER PLAN, IT CLAIMS A GATEWAY AND PATH HEAD IS ENVISIONED FOR THE PATH IN THE AREA OF AVONDALE DRIVE.EXACT AREA OF THIS TRAILWAY NEEDS TO BE DETERMINED INTERMEDIATE PATH HEAD COULD BE LOCATED NEAR ENVIRONMENT-FRIENDLY LEAF ROAD. THAT ' S 1 BLOCK ROAD IN DUKE PARK AREA. WITH ALL DUE RESPECT ARK ROUTE HEAD THAT FINISHES AT ECO-FRIENDLY LEAF STREET IS A PATH TO NO PLACE. OUR COMPANY BELIEVE IT NEED TO GO UNDER AVONDALE DRIVE AND CONNECT OUR COMMUNITY WITH THE COMMERCIAL LOCATION THAT IS THROUGHOUT AVONDALE DRIVE THAT WOULD PROVIDE CAR PARK FOR PEOPLE WHO INTENDED TO USE THE TRAIL AND IT WOULD ADDITIONALLY GIVE MEANS FOR US TO RECEIVE FROM OUR AREAS ACROSS. THANK YOU. > > THANK YOU SIGNIFICANTLY. MR. BAFLCHUCK. > > JEFF, PREVIOUS COMMISSIONER ON THE DURHAM OPEN AREA AND ROUTES PAYMENT AND PREVIOUS COMMISSIONER ON BIKE AND PEDESTRIAN ADVISORY UH COMPENSATION. ONE POINT OF DISCLOSURE.

THEY PROVIDE A SAFE CORRIDOR FOR INDIVIDUALS THAT ARE DISADVANTAGED ECONOMICALLY AND CANISTER NOT AFFORD CAR. ONE ELEMENT OF THE MASTERER STRATEGY I ' D LIKE TO REMARK DALE McKEEL AND DEPARTMENT OF TRANSPORT STAFF FOR DOING A REMARKABLE PLAN. ONE POINT THEY DISCUSSED IN THE PLAN IS CONVERTING THE DOWNTOWN LOOPHOLE TO TWO-WAY WEB TRAFFIC. 2 GENERATIONS AGO OUR CIVIC LEADERS MADE WHAT WE GENERALLY CONSIDER IN OUR NEIGHBORHOOD
>> A POOR CHOICE TO PRODUCE THE LOOPHOLE. THAT HAS STUNTED ADVANCEMENT OF MIDTOWN, IT HAS PRODUCED ATMOSPHERE DOWNTOWN WHERE OUR STREETS ARE NOT AS SAFE AS THEY COULD BE FOR PEDESTRIANS AND BIKE MOTORCYCLISTS. WE HAVE AN POSSIBILITY NOW TO RECTIFY THAT.IF WE TAKE THIS OPPORTUNITY CURRENTLY UH ONGOING DWEEMENT DOWNTOWN BESIDE THE LOOP WILL CERTAINLY AVERT THE CHANCE IN THE FUTURE TO HAVE A SENSIBLE STREET GRID AND DO IT IN AN EFFECTIVE METHOD. IF WE FAIL TO DO THAT CURRENTLY, FUTURE GENERATIONS WILL CERTAINLY LOOK BACK A OUR CIVIC LEADERS NOW AND REMORSE THE DECISION NOT TO ACCOMPLISH THAT SIMILARLY WE E REGRET THE DECISION TO SET UP THE LOOPHOLE IN TH TOP PLACE. THANKS. > > THANK YOU QUITE. MR. JAMES RATE ROGERS. > > THANKS. SPEED ROGERS, 1007 ATTRACTED STREET SIMPLY BEYOND MIDTOWN DURHAM. I ' M HERE TO SPEAK IN SUPPORT OF THE DURHAM BELT LINE JOB. I UH THINK IT AIDS United States ACHIEVE MOST OF OUR GOALS AS A CITY TOWARDS ENVIRONMENT JUSTICE AND TRANSPORTATION ALTERNATIVES.I WANT TO REPEAT AND AFFIRM THE VARIATION CONCERNS THAT MANY NEIGHBORHOOD MEMBERS EXPRESS AT A DURHAM BELT LINE FOR ALL EQUITY EVENT THAT WAS LUCKY SUFFICIENT TO PARTICIPATE IN LAST WEEK. WHEN SEEKING THE PROJECT, THERE WERE LOTS OF WORRIES ABOUT POSSIBLE INFLUENCE ON THE NEIGHBORHOODS AND I BELIEVE THOSE NEED TO BE TAKEN INTO CONSIDERATION. WITH THOSE ISSUES IN MIND I WOULD LIKE THE COUNCIL TO CONSIDER PROVIDING SOME KIND OF UP ZONING OR AFFORDABLE HOUSING ELEMENT TO THIS BELTLINE PROPOSAL TO EITHER ADD UNITS OR ADD AFFORDABLE UNITS ALONG BELT LINE.

THERE HAS YET TO BE A CITY An EXPANDING CITY WHERE TIS TYPE OF HIGH ACCOUNT ADVANCEMENT HAS ACTUALLY NOT CAUSED DISPLACEMENT OF EXISTING HOUSE THROUGH REAL ESTATE SUPPOSITION,'EVICTION, AND INDIVIDUALS EVALUATE OF THE HOMES THAT THEY ' VE STAYED IN FOR YEARS. THERE ' S LIKEWISE YET TO BE A CITY THAT HAS ACTUALLY ADDRESSED THIS PROBLEM BUT WE KNOW DURHAM IS SPECIAL AND WE ' RE NOT SPECIAL BECAUSE THIS WOULDN ' T OCCUR RIGHT HERE, IT ABSOLUTELY WOULD AND A GREAT DEAL OF THESE FOLKS WILL CERTAINLY BE TALKING TO THE EVIDENCE FOR THAT, BUT WE KNOW THAT WE, IN DURHAM, CANISTER COME UP WITH A VISIONARY REMEDY TO PRODUCE COMMUNITY STABILIZATION POLICIES AHEAD OF THE AUTHORIZATION OF THIS MASTER STRATEGY. > > MANY THANKS.

THE TRANSFORMERS HAVE DIVERTED THIS JOB WITH ADDITIONAL FEATURES THAT ARE NOT CENTRAL AND HAVE POSSIBLE GENT FIEING EFFECTS ONTHE AREA. THE PROPOSITION DEVOTES'$10.6 MILLION AND TNIGHT WE HEARD$11.3 MILLION TO SERVICES THAT ARE NOT E SEN TO THE PRIMARY OBJECTIVE. THESE INVESTMENTS KOUL RISE THE PRICES OF RESIDENTIAL OR COMMERCIAL PROPERTY AND HOUSING AROUND THE ROUTE.
