East Queen and Cameron Streets stormwater request follow-up Town Attorney Kevin Hornik reviewed this request for stormwater work came before the board a few months ago. He said his office had written a memo identifying the legal issues involved if the town conducted work that solely benefitted a private owner. He said he was reluctant to discuss the issue in detail in an open session and suggested the matter be discussed in a closed session. He said the town is authorized to benefit these properties as part of a larger stormwater improvement project but not to benefit an individual property owner. He added that the town is not ready to commit to a larger stormwater project at this time. Bell asked Hornik how it came to be that there is a situation that looks like town-owned drainpipes are dumping stormwater on that property. If the town installed drains on that property, then the board would not be doing something to potentially improve the property; rather, the board would be rectifying something the town did 30 to 40 years ago. Hornik noted Stormwater and Environmental Services Manager Terry Hackett could not attend this board meeting. He added he thinks Hackett’s conclusions were the stormwater system here is part of naturally occurring channels. Hornik added there doesn’t seem to be enough complaints in the greater area to merit a significant expenditure to study the stormwater flow in this area or to engage in designing an engineered stormwater system. Bell said he has seen town staff surveying that area or following stormwater in that area. He recently saw stormwater work at the nearby law office. He asked if that is a separate issue. Hornik could not say for sure. From talking with Hackett, he thinks those are separate and unrelated stormwater drainage complaints. There may be culverts that get blocked that cause downstream flooding like in front of the law office. Eric Hallman, who is one of the owners who requested the stormwater be addressed, said his issue with this is most of this argument is predicated on the idea that this is an ephemeral stream. He challenges whether north of this point there is any indication of an ephemeral stream. There is no ephemeral stream north of this, he said. There may have been one in the past. He added the town is losing potential revenue from this property, which could be more than $9,000 annually for those two properties. The return investment is June 28, 2021 Board of Commissioners Work Session Approved: ____________________ Page 2 of 29 Aug. 9, 2021 significant over the years. Hallman also added that the requested stormwater work would not be an improvement only to his property. He said a lot of sediment is going to the Eno River. The stormwater also erodes the road bed, negatively affecting properties downstream. There was brief discussion of what is next. The mayor noted next steps were listed in the agenda packet. Hughes said he wants to study the request in a way that gets the board to a “yes.” B. One Orange Racial Equity Plan: A Framework for Moving Forward – update Interim Human Resources Director Haley Bizzell gave a brief presentation. The first draft of the plan was included in the agenda packet. The board expressed support for the work. C. FY2021-22 Annual Budget and Financial Plan Budget Director Emily Bradford noted there were two options in the agenda packet, which were a revenue- neutral tax rate and adding two cents to the revenue-neutral rate to support sustainability efforts. Ferguson spoke in support of sustainability and also assisting with affordable housing. Weaver expressed support for setting aside money for sustainability planning. Bell asked if any of the American Rescue Plan Act funds could be allocated for affordable housing. Peterson said staff would make a presentation in August about the major areas for which the American Rescue Plan Act funds can be used. Lloyd said she is not in favor of any increase in taxes. Hughes is in favor of the two-cent increase above revenue neutral because he wants to follow through on the sustainability plan. English supports a two-cent increase for sustainability and environmental emergency. Climate action is here. Climate emergency is here. The time for action is now, he said. Lloyd expressed concern about affordability regarding increasing the tax rate and water and sewer rates. Weaver thanked everyone for their comments. She said if the town does its planning right, it will positively impact affordability. Sustainability and affordability are often intertwined. Weaver thinks the two-cent increase for sustainability implementation is also consistent with stated values included in taking care of what we’ve got. Bradford said she heard consensus about the two-cent tax increase and asked if the board wanted to discuss affordable housing more tonight. Ferguson would like a brief conversation. June 28, 2021 Board of Commissioners Work Session Approved: ____________________ Page 3 of 29 Aug. 9, 2021 English asked if Ferguson was proposing using part of the tax increase for affordable housing. Ferguson thinks the town needs more than $70,000 a year to keep people in their homes and to make homelessness as brief as possible. She wants one cent or a half cent added specifically for affordable housing. Weaver appreciates Ferguson’s thoughts but feels like it is the eleventh hour and this idea would need to be fleshed out with discussions about bridging the gap with the Orange County Partnership to End Homelessness or by creating more permanent relationship with the county. Ferguson persisted. Hughes said the Town of Pittsboro has an affordable housing ordinance. If the Town of Hillsborough plans to set aside funds for affordable housing, then he thinks it would be helpful for the board to craft a similar sort of ordinance in the future. The board decided to discuss other aspects of the budget. Assistant to the Manager/Deputy Budget Director Jen Della Valle noted some positions were added. She noted the board had passed a resolution on the consent agenda to accept Hillsborough’s allocation of the American Rescue Plan Act funds and will discuss in August how to use the funds. Those funds are not included in this budget at this time. She said an ordinance would be crafted once that has been determined. She noted the merit raises and cost of living allowance for employees had been added to the budget. She invited questions or comments. Weaver asked whether this was the time to talk about water and sewer rates. Weaver noted the town manager provided detailed information about why water and sewer rates are what they are, the thought process behind it, and how we got where we are. She opened up conversation to the board. She said the board had received quite a few emails from folks talking about water rates and the burden of those rates, particularly out-of-town rates. She said the Water and Sewer Advisory Committee is still studying this and is expected to bring recommendations to the board. Hughes said he thinks the Water and Sewer Advisory Committee needs to be a group that is codified in the ordinance with legal authority. He suggested reducing the minimum amount of water usage charged to 2,400 gallons a month and reduce the out-of-town rate increase. Ferguson thinks customers should pay for what they use. She is open to a lower increase for out-of-town customers but wants to reward those who choose to be resident citizens in Hillsborough, who choose to purchase and live in town. She does not want to shift the financial burden to in-town water customers. Peterson said if the board dropped the minimum water usage, the amount would be made up with fund balance or savings. If the board chose to only increase the out-of-town rate by half, that would be a larger sum of funds. The board would have to make a budget amendment during this fiscal year to use fund balance. Bell asked what a 1% decrease would be. June 28, 2021 Board of Commissioners Work Session Approved: ____________________ Page 4 of 29 Aug. 9, 2021 English said he is supportive of reducing the minimum usage to encourage people to conserve water, and it could be done in stages over years, but five years seems like a long time to drop the minimum usage by 500 gallons. He added that he would like more information about a base rate for residents and users. Peterson said the minimum usage could be dropped by 500 gallons in three years. Lloyd expressed concern about changing the budget at this point. Peterson advised against paying a consultant to establish a base rate because it would have to be recalculated every three to five years at great expense. Large places can afford to pay a consultant to calculate a base rate. Small places have to use an estimate like 2,000 gallons. That’s the most commonly used threshold for minimal usage. Bradford said there are two ordinances in the agenda packet. One is for a revenue neutral budget and the other for a budget with a two-cent tax increase. Bradford checked that the board wished to amend the fee schedule by adjusting the rate down by 125 gallons. Motion: Hughes moved to adopt the budget inclusive of setting the property tax rate at 58.7 cents with 2 cents earmarked for climate, sustainability and comprehensive plan implementation; adopt water and sewer budget setting minimum usage reduced by 125 gallons per month; and approve all project ordinances as presented.

The Unified Development Ordinance Section 9.2, Definitions, is hereby amended to delete the following terms and definitions: Development Engineered Stormwater Control High Density Project Low Density Project Section 2. The definition of BMP is here by amended to read as follows: Best Management Practice, was commonly used in stormwater management, but now the preferred term is SCM which stands for stormwater control measure. Section 3. The definition of Built-upon Area is here by amended to add the following as items that do not meet the definition: a surface of number 57 stone, as designated by the American Society for Testing and Materials, laid at least four inches thick over a geotextile fabric; a trail as defined in G.S. 113A-85 that is either unpaved or paved as long as the pavement is porous with a hydraulic conductivity greater than 0.001 centimeters per second (1.41 inches per hour); or landscaping material, including, but not limited to, gravel, mulch, sand, and vegetation, placed on areas that receive pedestrian or bicycle traffic or on portions of driveways and parking areas that will not be compacted by the weight of a vehicle, such as the area between sections of pavement that support the weight of a vehicle. Section 4. The term Stormwater Control Measure is hereby added with the following definition: Stormwater Control Measure A physical device designed to trap, settle out, or filter pollutants from stormwater runoff; to alter or reduce stormwater runoff velocity, amount, timing, or other characteristics; to approximate the pre- development hydrology on a developed site; or to achieve any combination of these goals. Stormwater control measures includes physical practices such as constructed wetlands, vegetative practices, filter strips, grassed swales, and other methods installed or created on real property. “Engineered stormwater control” is synonymous with “structural practice,” “stormwater control facility,” “stormwater control practice,” “stormwater treatment practice,” stormwater management practice,” “stormwater control measures,” “structural stormwater treatment systems,” and similar terms used in this ordinance. It is a broad term that may include practices that do not require design by a professionally licensed engineer. Section 5.
