Presentation from Steering Committee for Orange County Land Trust regarding efforts to implement land trust developments for affordable Planning Director Margaret Hauth introduced Alison Weiner, Chair of the Steering Committee. . Alison Weiner expressed her appreciation for the opportunity to present this information to the Board. Ms. Weiner stated that the difference between existing affordable housing efforts and what a land trust offers is the involvement of residents and concerned citizens. As a membership organization with members drawn from the land trust lease holders and the wider community, as well as a Board of Directors composed ofthe same, a Community Land Trust can provide greater local control over land and housing ownership. A Community Land Trust offers more than a developer who builds a house and then moves on the next project. It is a steward of the land it holds, a committed partner in how the land is used and cared for. As it is partners with residents who lease the land, it provides support with regard to the property, helping homeowners to be good homeowners while helping to keep the housing affordable on a long-term basis. Ms. Weiner stated that the Towns of Chapel and Carrboro have each been actively exploring the potential for a land trust and other solutions for creating affordable housing. Orange County has passed its first housing bond. She explained that because of the strong and active relationships between these governments, it makes sense to create an organization that will serve County-wide, not only for convenience, but to support the creation of long-term affordable and diverse housing throughout the County, which will benefit all citizens of the County.

I Year . . . 539 ATTACHMENT IX.A Proposal for the Fairview "Community Policing Center" January 11, 1999 On September 29, 1998 the Town of Hillsborough Board of Commissioners and the Fairview Block Captains held a meeting to discuss needs and issues in the Fairview Community. During the meeting, the Board directed the Town Manager to work with a Committee comprised of several Block Captains, Police Department representatives, and Commissioner Dancy. The Committee's task was to develop a proposal for a Police Sub-Station/Community Center "concept" located in the Fairview Park. The proposal was to be presented to the Hillsborough Board of Commissioners as soon as reasonably possible. The Committee met on October 29th, December 17th, and January 5th to discuss key issues, ideas, and concerns relating to the development of a Community Policing Center, those ideas are the basis for this proposal. The following information is intended to highlight the key elements of the proposal to construct and operate the Center. Primary Purposes of the Center: · Bring police officers closer to the Fairview Community to increase the ability of residents and the Hillsborough Police Department to work together in their desire to rid the neighborhood of drugs and cnme. · Providing a sub-station and relocating the Town's Community Policing Division in the Center will increase interaction between residents and police officers. The goal is to increase communication and trust between the HPD and community - both are crucial elements in effectively fighting and decreasing crime in Fairview as well as the rest of Hillsborough. The relocation will have little or no impact on the Community Policing Division's ability to continue serving the entire Town of Hillsborough. Currently, the Community Policing Division is working in very "cramped" conditions. In fact, the facility should make it much easier for the public to reach all the Community Policing Officers. In addition to alleviating this problem, the move will free up needed office and storage space in the Police Department. · Increase use of the existing park by locating the Center on the same property - greater law enforcement presence in the area makes this a safer environment for children and families. The Center and Community Policing Division will benefit by the increased traffic in the Park, thus allowing Hillsborough Police Officers and residents to "get to know each other" on a friendly basis. This makes it easier for everyone to work together when various problems arise - this is the basic premise behind Community Oriented Policing. · Provide a convenient location to operate programs to help all children in Hillsborough (e.g., after school activities, tutorial programs, youth programs run by the Community Policing Division, etc.). · Provide space to Orange County and the Sheriff's Department, making it easier for them to provide services to the neighborhood and Northern Orange County. The County may wish to set up satellite offices for Heath/Social Services that could operate on a limited schedule. · Provide a convenient meeting space for "community" activities for all residents of Hills borough. · Eventually augment the benefits of a regional park on the surrounding County and Town properties, when a recreation project is eventually developed in this area. Operational Concept: · The Community Policing Center will be the headquarters for the HPD Community Policing Division, and will provide an office for the Orange County Sheriff's Department to assist in their law enforcement operations in the area. · Satellite office location available for government services (Town and County). · Make the Center's Meeting Room available for use by community groups. . . . 540 · The Center willl1D1 be open for regular office hours, the cost of placing an administrative-type person in the office for a 40 hour week is too expensive given the current financial condition and operational priorities of the Town. Rather the Center will be open to the public when officers are in the Center, between patrols and assignments. Since police work is unpredictable, it is difficult to set a permanent office schedule, though the Community Policing Division intends to experiment by set regular limited hours (e.g., an hour in the morning and an hour in the afternoon after school every day). If a satellite office is set up, (for example by a County Department) they may wish to be open every Tuesday and Thursday from 2:00 - 5:00 P.M., this would be acceptable and encouraged since it would benefit the surrounding community. The space could be used by the Orange County School System, if they were interested in starting an after-school tutorial program. Community groups could schedule use of the building through the Community Policing Division. · Community volunteers should be used to station the office and expand the Center's hours of operation. A "reception" desk should be located in the lobby so volunteers can greet visitors, provide information on Center operations, etc. Building Features: · Three offices for the Community Policing Division: one for the Lieutenant, one for the Sargent, and a larger office for the Community Policing Officers · One office space reserved for Orange County Sheriffs Department and one office for other Orange County Departments (e.g., HealthlHumanlSocial Services, school system, etc.) · Large meeting area/classroom (approximately 22' x 24') with a large whiteboard for instructional purposes (e.g., community meetings, Community Policing Activities, after school tutorial programs, etc.) · Small kitchenette: Refrigerator, microwave, and sink · Upstairs walk-in attic for storage and room for possible office expansion in the attic · Two handicap accessible rest rooms · Shower & locker room for law enforcement personnel · A lobby to locate a "reception" desk and locate a community information "bulletin board" · Approximate size: 1,900 square feet. Recommended Steps Necessary to Implement Construction of Center: 1) The Committee presents its proposal for the Fairview Center to the Hillsborough Board of Commissioners at their January 11 th meeting. Get suggestions and guidance from Board and Fairview Block Captains on the concept and their recommended next step. 2) Town Manager meets with the County Manager and School Superintendent to make them aware of the proposed Center and its availability for use by their organizations. Solicit their suggestions and ideas for incorporation into final design. 3) Presentation to Joint Orange County/Town of Hills borough meeting on January 28th. Request Orange County consider participating in the project via lease of the land and possible financial participation. 4) February 8th Hillsborough Board of Commissioners' meeting: Hire architect to work with Committee and design Center. 5) February/March: Have architect begin design work, start developing specific cost estimates for furnishing the Center. 6) Upon completion of design, approval by the Fairview Center Committee, Blocks Captains, and final approval by the Town's Board of Commissioners the architect will put the project "out to bid." 7) After bids are received the Finance Director will prepare Requests for Proposals to "bid out" the financing ofthe project. A ten-year lease-purchase agreement is the recommended financing instrument to fund the majority of the project. Consideration of a seven-year agreement will be analyzed during development of the FYOO-02 Financial Plan. . . . 5~1 PROPOSED FINANCING & BUDGET INFORMATION For the Fairview "Community Policing Center" Revenues for "Fairview Center" Project: FY99 Budgeted Operating Revenues for Project FYOO Proceeds from Lease-Purchase Agreement 37,500 152,000 $189,500 Expenditures for "Fairview Center" Project (estimate): Design & Plans, Administration of Bidding, Construction & Inspections Building Construction Furnishings (e.g., office furniture, tables & chairs, whiteboard, refrigerator, etc.) Contingency 7,500 152,000 15,000 15,000 $189,500 Budgetary Notes Regarding Project: Almost all of the construction costs for the building will be financed by a ten-year lease-purchase agreement for $152,000 - the estimated total construction cost is also $152,000. For forecasting purposes a five (5.0) percent interest rate was calculated. Construction estimates for commercial buildings average between $70-80 per square foot, the estimate for this project is conservatively based on the higher end of the scale at $80 per square foot. The construction of this project is also predicated on the donation of the necessary land at Fairview Park by Orange County. The $37,500 of operating revenues budgeted for FY99 will be used to cover most of the cash requirements for this project. Funds not usedfor these items by the end of FY99 (by June 30, 1999) will be encumbered and carried over to FYOO to cover those expenses. The $37,500 of expenses will be used to fund the following portions of the Center project: · $ 7,500 - Design & Plans, Administration of Bidding, Construction & Inspections · $15,000 - Furnishings · $15,000 - Contingency *Estimated FYOO Facility Budget for the Center: Debt Payment on a 10-year Lease-Purchase Maintenance & Repair Utilities Insurance Miscellaneous $19,500 1,500 2,500 300 2.illill $25,800 * These estimates do llil1. include costs for program operations or Community Policing Costs.
