In D ecom he r , 1990 the Char lotte-M eck lenbu rg School B oard approv ed a
planning process jointly prepared by the School Board staff andP lann inq Com m ission staff to dev e lop a schoo l m aster p lan . Preparation
of the plan was to be a joint effort between the School staff andP lanninq . A lso . a n eed w as identified for addit iona l funding to
sponsor a com mun ity education event and h ire consu lt ant service s to
u ndertake com pu ter m ode ling o f v ariou s deve lopm ent scenarios . In
M arch , 199 1 , the c ity Mnnager , County Manager and A cting Super in tendent
o f sch oo ls w orked @u t a m em o of u nderstanding of how the addition a l
$145 ,000 funding would be handled . The City and County would provideA1û0 ,00Q for the computer modeling and the Schools would provide
$45 ,000 for the cn-- lnity education event .
The new school superintendent has been Made aware of this project andw ill be briefed in depth tn Ju ly g 1990 by the P lanning staff and the
Gchool Staff . Moving forward on this project as this time is viewed asim p ortant becau se to the 2 1 additiona l sch ools ca lled for ov er th e n ex t
five years . This project is anticipated to offtcially get started in
sep tom h-r . 199 1 .
Bu dg e t Im p a c t
Th e com pu tet m ode ling is v iew ed as the x ost im portan t p art of the
m aster plan deve lopment because o f the comp lexity of the pup il
assignment plan and its relationship to new school locations . Thep lnnning proc ess is str uctu red so that a c itizen policy g roup w i ll
tden tify sev e ra l dev e lopa ent scena rios for futu re sehoo l p lacem ent and
redev e lopm ent . The c empu ter m ode ling w i ll then exp lore each of the
dev elopm en t scenarios to attem pt to iden tify the advantages an d
disadvantages to the schoo l system and the c ---unity in pu rsuinq
variou s schoo l locat iona l po lic ies .
Not having the C ity fu nding available uou ld force the postponem ent or
stgn ifican t m od ifiration of the rne-nxn ity ed ucation ev en t . Th e
m ode ling exerc ise v iew ed as very im p ortant to th e success of th e p lan
and v ou ld be don e w ith re- nining fu nding from the County and Sch oo l
Board .
Mov ing forward w ith the Sch ool Master P lan in Fï 92 ts very important
becau se the Sch oo l Sy stem ts a lready e- harked on expan sion p rogram
w h tch w ill produ ce 16 new schoo ls and 5 rep lacem en t schoo ls ov er the
next five years . It is imp ortan t that these schoo ls b e sited so that
they m eet cur rent as w e ll a s fu ture n eeds o f the com- m ity .

admin i/ter the 11 â@r Ar t Proqraa . In Tebrua ry , 1992 , th e Boa rd of

Althouvh a joint Art Ca--dssion has been in existence since 1982, thecnmm lsaion w as not a ssign ed to the Planning Cqmm tssion until 1987 . The
P lanning C -e- dssion asltgn ed a ê lann er I to prov tde p art-tim e supp ort
to the A r t Ca-m lssion , but the City 's and Cou nty 's exp and ing capital
budget prog ram requi red a higher level of serv ice . s ince 1988 , a
Planner I has been assigned almost full-time to under*.xle projectadxiniltrat ïon and g ive support to the nïne-m o- h-r A rt Ca-m :saion . As
the eapital budget pr@gram has decreased , this Planner 'a time has beenreprog rammed into other areas of the Planning operation . Por examp le
,
on ly 7 m on th a of th e P lanner I ': tio e h aa been p rog ram med to assist the
A rt Ca- -:ssion in FT 92 .
Bu d g e t Im p ae t
ilia inating the staff ppsàtion for the A rt ca-m :ssion wou ld bring the
1% for Art Program effective ly to a halt a s e e ll as fu rt.her d tminiah
th e P lanning D epa r+- - nt resou *a es . Th e P lann ing staff has a lready been
reduced by 3 people in responding to the current budget restrainta for
Ff 92 . Thil would be a follrth person . whtch will d-r >ct b0th p lanningactàv ities and the a r t proqram .
The adverse imp agt on the Art C- 4sston wou ld b e as foll@ws :
o Keck len burv C ounty would lose staff supp ort for the foll- nq
active art prol-et-l
- S h a ro n R eg ion a l P ub lic L ib r a ry- NecklenH xrg AY m tàc Cen ter- Un iv ersity C ity L ibrary- Ta. Ray C ente r- D e t o x c en te r- Meck lenhurg County Po lice Exp ana ion

o The City Wou ld lose staff support for the following active art
projects :
- Char lotte C onv en tion C enter
- Charlotte/Douglas International Airport- P e r fo rm in g A r t s C en te r
- Discovery Place 's OmniM ax- A n im a l sh e lt e r Ex p an s ton

o Art Cn-misaion would loose its aam4nistrative support (ie .,artist and pub lic cn- mun ication s , pro spectu s w riting , contrac t
p reparation and negotiat ion s , ad hoc g roup and artist
mnnagement, financial suxcœry and status reporting, etc.)
B u d g et O pt i on
In lieu o f e llm dnat ing the en tire P lann er I position , another op tion
w ou ld be to charge the cost of the actu al aam 4n istrative w ork to the
eapita l art acroun t . This w ou ld be q ch ang e in the charge for the
county but would transfer $39,601 (100%) to the City/county Capital
budg ets .
'he other option is to elim fnate the staffing cost for 7 m onths .
A lso , it m ay be pr uden t to a llow the A rt Cnmm fssion 90 - 12Q days o k
tnterim staff support whi le available staffing options are review ed .
This maintains the continuity of current art projects until a permnnentlocation for the Art C -- -isaion can be fou nd .

one proposed for Knights Bridge. wi+.hin a 1/4 mile radius of any jjasststed housing project. Thuse the HhP policy should prohibit theproposed Knights Bridge project , as the stte is approximately 625f
-eet from Pine Valley. Mr. Walton and staff are of the opinion that jjthe HAP exempts the proposed project from this prohibxtion. a1rp osition is that a el/se reaa :ng o f the po lioy exem ptïon doea not

Mr. Ford provided the following which was to be added to the minutesjj of the May 3rd meeting:wThe Kn ight s B r idge repre sentatives are o f th e op tnion that the
proposed project (Knights Bridge) should not be developed due to thefaet that it lies wtthin 1/4 mile of an eassisted housing project'(Pine Valley). Pine Valley was developed under a Federal hssistance

proposed Enfghts Brfdge project, as the sfte is approximately 625jj feet from Pine valley. Mr. Walton and staff are of the opinion thatthe HAP exexpts the proposed prolect from this prohibition . G :rp osit ion is that a close rea ding of the policy exemp tion does not
support the City's position. G:> reading of the exemptions indicates11 that the proposed development wpuld be exempt from HRP if it were tob e dev e lop ed fo r h om eown er sh ip . s ince it is n ot e it sh ou ld be
prohibited. The exemptions apply to proposed, nek developments. Mr.11 Walton says the exemption for hokeownership applies to Pine Valley.

SU BJECT : Proposal Reg arding C ouncilm -mhors ' serv ire on Board s and
Cnmm ission s
a lring this period of econom lc hardsh ip for mnny pro fit and non-p rofit
organi zations throughout ou r cn- - .n ity , the com petitton for lim ited
C ity tax dollats and policy assist ance is increasing . It is during
these times that ve as elected o fficia ls muat continu e to ensu re that
each of these o rgan ization s have equitab le access to u s, and th at w e
continue Ch arlotte 's ex ee llent tradition o f tnitiating safeguards to
protect ev en an appearance of improp riety and p artiatity . Therefore, I
r ecnm mend that v e as Counc ilm omh-rs im p lo- -n t on e o f the two fo lleging
po licy options . These are :
Option 1) A City Councilm-x--r cannot serve as an officer or on apolicy-m nl ing board of any agen cy , camm ission , or
organixation that seeks or receiv es financial benefitsfrom Char lotte C tty Cou ncil or are advocates for
legts lativ e action or admin istrat ive p olicy app roved by
Char lotte C ity Couneil .
Optton 2) Require all Ckty Councilm-mh-rs to snhm<t nnnually alist of aa y profit or non-p ro fit organ ization s on wh ieh
they serve as a board m -mhor or officer and to d isclose
prior to any votes their inv o lvemen t w itb su ch group s
which seek financia l ben efits or leq ialative action from
c ity Counc il .
These options do not prohib tt any Counci lm oa hor frem attending m eetings
or betng a regular m-mh-r of an organixatioh (example : Chn-hor of
Cammerce m-mhor). It only attexpts to ensure each elected official isnot put into a compromistng position of being an advocate and/orprovid ing special access and treatm ent to an organizqtion for wh ich
C ity Cou ncil provide s fua d ing or policy assistance .
