MemorandumTo: From: Date: Re: Honorable Mayor and Town Council Jenny Saldi November 10, 2010 Visual Image Program Awards Presentation

At the September 13, 2010 meeting of the Planning Commission, Chairman Elmo Vance and Members of the Commission were given a presentation of the Fall 2010 candidates for the Visual Image Program. The Chairman and Members of the Commission then voted for the award th winners. The award winners will be presented with a plaque at the November 16 Town Council meeting. The Visual Image Program (VIP) was developed in the mid 1990s to publicly recognize developments with the community that significantly enhance the visual appearance of the Town of Garner. At the height of development, there were enough noteworthy projects to award winners once or twice a year. With the downturn in the economy, the last awards were given in 2008. The program focuses on three categories: Existing Development, Industrial Development and New Development. The winning projects were selected on the basis of meeting two or more of the following criteria: 1. Creative architectural detailing 2. Exceptional landscape design and installation 3. Innovative siting of the building 4. Enhancement to the visual appeal of a Garner thoroughfare The following projects were voted as the award winners: Biscuitville will receive the VIP award for existing development. This restaurant located at the corner of Anarron Court and Fayetteville Road was formerly Miami Subs. Biscuitville created a completely different look with the existing building. Judicious removal and retention of existing vegetation along with supplements of new vegetation meet current landscape regulations. The new building, revamped landscaping and new freestanding sign all contribute to an updated look enhancing the overall character of Fayetteville Road. Golden State Foods will receive the VIP award for industrial development. Golden State Foods is the latest addition to Greenfield North and is located at the end of the cul-du-sac. The complex is very large; however, the site design does much to reduce the visual impact of the entire property. The angle of the building, together with the screen walls, prevents one from seeing the magnitude of the complex from North Greenfield Parkway. The majority of the truck docks and service area are below grade of the adjacent highways; in addition, a buffer of existing vegetation, supplemented with evergreen material, provides screening. The installation of healthy plant material, larger than required, provides an immediate, positive, visual impact.

Item E 2 of 2

United Methodist Conference will receive the VIP award for new development. This site in Greenfield Business Park is the headquarters for Methodist churches in the eastern portion of the state. The entrance into the site off Waterfield Ridge Place is a winding drive through existing vegetation; the drive is enhanced with strategically placed new plant material. The design of the site allowed a large percentage of the existing vegetation to be saved. The parking lot is broken up by one large landscape island in which there is a mix of existing and new vegetation. The plant material installed was larger than required by the ordinance. A storm water pond was landscaped in such a manner that makes it an amenity. The architecture is visually interesting and extra measures were taken to insure the screening of the roof mounted mechanical systems blended with the building. Other details such as an overflow parking lot paved with pavers to allow grass to grow through, a park bench and decorative lighting fixtures all create a unique site. This project is LEED certified. The only drawback for the community is that visibility into the site is limited due to existing vegetation; therefore, the site cannot contribute its positive image to US 70, a major corridor through the community. The award winners will receive their plaques, in a joint presentation by Town Council and the Planning Commission, in recognition of their contribution toward enhancing the visual image of Garner. Chairman Vance will present each candidate and provide a brief description of the project. Mayor Williams will then greet each recipient and present them with a plaque. In addition, a distinctive image award sign shall be placed on the property to provide public recognition to these contributors.

Item G-1 1 of 11Town of Garner Town Council Work Session Minutes October 26, 2010 - 6:00 P.M. The Garner Town Council met in a Wor k Session at 6:00 p.m. on Tuesday, October 26, 2010 in the Town Hall C ouncil Meeting Room to discuss the following: Attending: Mayor Williams, Mayor Pro Tem Behringer, Council Members Marshburn, Johns, Singleton and Kennedy STAFF MEMBERS PRESENT: Hardin Watkins, Town Manager; Rodney Dickerson, Assistant Town Manager; Bill Anderson, Town Attorney; Tony Chalk, Assistant Town Engineer; Brad Bass, Planning Director; Jason Brown, Enforcement Planner; Tony Beasley, Economic Development Director; Lin Jones, Finance Director; John Hodges, GRA Executive Director and Rick Mercier, PIO CALL MEETING TO ORDER at 6:05 P.M. DISCUSSION Stormwater Retrofit Locations Presenter: Tony Chalk, Assistant Town Engineer Mr. Chalk said th e Town Attorney f elt updating the Town Council on this matter would be beneficial prior to easement negotiations with the property owners. He said the Town has been co nstructing new stormw ater BMPs and retrofitting some existing sites in order to satisfy t he Towns Water Supply Watershed Protection Plan that was approved by the State in 2003. These BMPs replaced a regional pond concept that was modified due to regulatory changes. The modified plan involved retrofitting or adding new BMPs in the areas that were developed with a regional pond concept. Dry detention basins that were constructed as stormwater quality devices for flood control provided the most likely sites for retrofitting. The dry detention ponds at the Garner Towne Shopping Center were converted in 2007 and contact has been made with owners of the Timber Crossing Shopping Center, Bryan Woods Apartments, Faith Alliance Church, Garner Methodist Church, River Birch Town Homes, Victory Fellowship Church and Lorraine Village. All of these had existing BMPs on site. The Towns consultant, Russell Briggs, is nearing completion on the designs for the retrofit of Garner United Methodist Church, Faith Alliance Church and an open space area in the Heatherwoods Subdivision. Mr. Briggs will also be proceeding with designs on the other sites mentioned. Easements will need to be obtained from each of the property owners prior to commencement of construction. Even after constr ucting all of th ese projects, the re may still be additional areas needed in order to meet the goals set forth in the plan.

Page 6

Item G-1 2 of 11The total amounts removed cannot be determined until final designs are completed. There may be the need to obtain additional easements on private properties , but hopefully an y remaining work w ill be small i n scope and suitable sites on Town owned property can be utilized. Mr. Chalk said Heatherwood s Subdivision has an open space area owned by the Town of Ga rner. This open s pace can be used as a grass bioretention area. By using this open space, the Town does not have to obtain any easemen ts. He said we ma y have to take so me trees out and add a two foot retaining wall. Mr. Kennedy s tated the Homeowner s Association sh ould be notified before any changes occur. Mr. Chalk replied he would do so. Action: Consideration of Timber Crossing S hopping Center ea sement purchase agreement for November 1 agenda

Review of the 2009 Permit Extension Act Amendment Presenter: Brad Bass, Planning Director Mr. Bass explained that in August 2 010 the General A ssembly passed a bill that amended the 2009 Permit Extension Act which extended the time period by one additional year for the major d evelopment permits . The 2010 amendment simply extended the suspended time period until December 2013 (one year extension). Local governments have the option to opt out by passing a Resolution by December 31. Currently under t he 2009 State La w a project has a 2 year permit extension from Garners UDO and up to a 3 year suspended period which effectively extend s the life of the permit up to a f ive year period. The 2010 amendment grants an additional year of t ime suspension which results in a permit time period of up to 6 years. Staff estimates that roughly one -third (9) of 28 affected projects most likely will n ot be developed. M ost of the remaini ng projects ar e fairly small scale with exception of the Jameson Place Subdivision (70 lots) and 2 offi ce/warehouse projects in Greenfield North Business Park. Staff does not see any projects on the list that would pose any significant concerns to us regarding (i.e. traffic impacts, community appearance, impacts on neighborhoods). The question befor e Council is whet her or not to opt out of the 2010 period time extension. In order for Council to opt o ut, it must adopt a resolution stati ng the one -year e xtension and relat ed amendments in the 2010 Act does not apply to de velopment approvals issued by th e Town prior to Dece mber 31, 2010. Thi s action must be taken before the end of the year. No action is need ed from Council a t this time; howe ver if there is interest by the Town Council to opt out, that decision must be made in the next 60 days or so. Mayor Williams as ked what is the advantage of waiting 60 days. Mr. Bass replied this will give Council more time to deliberate.

Page 7

Item G-1 3 of 11Mr. Bass said by L aw a Public Hearing is not required, but he fe lt it would be helpful. Council Member Jo hns asked if the re will be a wor kload change on staff. Mr. Bass r eplied the workloa d is manageable . T here will be no more projects than we already have. Council Member Ma rshburn said by o pting out it may spur on s ome of these projects and the extension may help them pick up the business. Council Member Ke nnedy said there is a fair amount of money already invested in these projects, which would give some self motivation . He said he does not feel that we should opt out. Council Member Singleton said he sees no problem in opting out. The Town Council a greed to schedule a Public Hearing i n order to hear public feedback. Mr. Bass said he w ill check the advertisement date deadlines to hold a Public Hearing for the November 16th. Action: Set a Public Hearing for November 16

Citizen Concerns Regarding Signs Presenter: Brad Bass, Planning Director Mr. Bass r ecognized Jason Brown, Enforcement Planner f or his diligence in the long process on the sign information inquiries. Mr. Bass explained the Planning Department received a complaint from a citizen regarding fifteen (15) signs located throughout the community in April 2010. Staff immediately began its investigation of the signs. This in turn led to a series of communications b etween the Towns Enforcement Planner and the complai nant which led to more complaints about signs being filed by t his individual. A mee ting with Town Management, the Planning Department and the individu al who filed the complaint was held recently to discuss these issues. Findings There are several different types of signs that are permitted regarding the advertisement of real estate and for the advertisement of large construction projects. Directional Real Estate Signs (small) on the weekends without a permit. Residential and Commercial Properties for Sale or Lease Sign on the premise without a permit (4 square feet for residential and 32 square feet for commercial). Construction Identification Sign that names the project, developers, contractors, and others associated with the construction, sale, or lease of the property is allowed (temporary sign permit, limited to one-year, with a renewable option).

Page 8

Item G-1 4 of 11Signs must be removed within ten days after the final certificate of occupancy has been issued. They are required to be on-premises with no more than one such sign per site, and it may not exceed 32 square feet in area or six feet in height. Such signs cannot be erected prior to Town plan approval of the project identified. Off-Site Subdivision Signs allowed on private property directing the public to a subdivision or multifamily development with the property owners permission. These signs are limited to one year through the issuance of a temporary sign permit. They cannot exceed 32 square feet in surface area, and can only display the name of and direction to the development. Issues During the review of the sign complaints previously discussed staff identified several issues we felt needed to be brought to the Councils attention for review and direction. 1. It appears that several off-premise subdivision signs were installed without sign permits or their one year time period has expired. Due to the depressed housing market, the development community appears to be reluctant to take down signs that are in violation. There are several options that can be considered to address this situation. Council can direct staff to suspend enforcement action on these types of signs given the general condition of the current housing market and address this matter again at a later date. Another option for Council to consider is amending the UDO to allow Off-Premise Subdivision Signs to be renewed beyond the current one year time period. Staff would suggest guidelines be considered should we move forward with a text amendment to allow this. As a starting point, these types of signs could be renewed annually for a certain period of time or until a certain percentage of lots have been developed (built upon) whichever occurs first. Recall that Garner is the only jurisdiction in Wake County that allows this type of sign. Most all other communities, along with Garner as well, allow the small off-premise real estate directional signs during the weekend. 2. A second issue that may need Council review concerns clarifying the renewal of on-site Construction Identification Signs. Currently these signs are allowed for one year with a renewal option but without any further guidance in the UDO. Staff has heard comments from a few people about the length of time some of these types of signs are allowed to remain. Historically, as long the project was under construction or had remaining residential lots available, in the case of a subdivision; staff has been accommodating in our enforcement. There may be a need to consider some clarification regarding the length of time such sign can remain on a site.

Page 9

Item G-1 5 of 11Mr. Bass said if the Council believes further review of these matters along the lines discussed above is warranted, then staff needs consensus from Council to draft possible changes to the sign ordinance for review at a future work session. Mr. Bass said Garner is the only town that allows the off-site signs. This has been in the Town Development Guidelines since 1984. The issues are with posted signs running past one year allowance, not getting a permit or their time has expired. Mr. Bass said staff would need direction from Council before the Planning Department takes any steps. Mr. Bass said any changes will require a UDO text amendment. He said staff has actively responded to the citizens requests. Council Member Marshburn said there should be some flexibility on larger signs. Council Member Singleton said the off-premise signs should have some conditions put on them. He said he does not want to extend the time limits for signs. He would like the signs to be attractive and charge the fee every two years. Council Member Kennedy said with construction site identification signs, naming the project, developer, contractors and others connected with the construction, sale or lease of structures, and related information he could support renewal of these signs or until a certain percentage of lots have been developed. On off-premise directional signs on private property directing the public to a subdivision or multifamily development he would request a written letter from the property owner. Mr. Bass said the intent of the construction signs was to announce a subdivision. He said it is possible to put some amount of build out percentage and suggests 80% or more. Council Member Singleton said maybe change the fee amount of the permit from $25.00 to a higher amount. Action: REPORTS ConAgra Re-Development Initiative Update Presenter: Hardin Watkins, Town Manager Tony Beasley, Economic Development Director Mr. Watkins gave an update on ConAgra stating the progress and upcoming tasks. Make draft changes to sign ordinance, review at a future work session.

TOWN OF GARNER PUBLIC WORKS DEPT.MEMORANDUMTO: Hardin Watkins Town Manager Paul Cox Public Works Director October 28, 2010 Consumer Price Index Adjustment for Solid Waste Contract

FROM:

DATE: RE:

Per stipulations in the Solid Waste and Recycling Contracts, All Star Waste Services, LLC, has requested that fees be adjusted to reflect the change in the Consumer Price Index (CPI). In accordance with the Detailed Specifications of the Solid Waste Contract between the Town of Garner and All Star Waste Services, LLC, rates for solid waste services will increase by 4.0% effective October 1, 2010. The increase is based on the seasonally unadjusted Consumer Price Index for Water and Sewer and Trash Collections, for all Urban Consumers, published by the United States Department of Labor, Bureau of Labor Statistics shown in Table 1.Table 1: CPI for all Urban Users, Water and Sewer and Trash Collections Year Jan. Feb. Mar. Apr. May June July 157.275 157.638 158.052 158.698 159.517 159.831 161.403 2009 2010 166.857 168.078 168.521 169.116 169.825 169.745 171.156 Aug.163.136 172.491

Sept.163.429 172.833

Oct.164.591

Nov.164.962

Dec.165.204

Avg.147.974 169.847

As the contract stipulates, the base index is the average of the six monthly indices with the first month of said base index beginning eighteen months prior to the affected contract year. Table 2 shows these figures:Table 2: Base Index Year Apr. May 2009 158.698 159.517 June 159.831 July 161.403 Aug. 163.136 Sept. 163.429 Avg. 161.002

The contract continues, the rates applied to the affected contract year shall be increased or decreased by a percentage amount equal to the percentage change from the aforementioned base index to the average of the first nine monthly indices for the year preceding the affected contract year, calculated to the nearest tenth of a percent.

Page 25

Item G-3 2 of 3

No adjustment based on CPI changes shall exceed a 10 percent increase or decrease from the rates paid to the contractor in the previous year. Table 3 shows the average of the nine month index:Table 3: Nine Month Index Year Oct. Nov. 2009 164.591 164.962 Dec. 165.204 Year 2010 Jan. 166.857 Feb. 168.078 March 168.521 April 169.116 May 169.825 June 169.745 Average 167.433

The percentage change from the base index average (161.002) to the average of the nine month index (167.433) is 3.99%. As prescribed by the contract, this 3.99% figure must be rounded to the nearest tenth, thus the solid waste and recycling rates will reflect 4.0% increase. Table 4 reflects the changes in unit charges:Table 4: Solid Waste and Recycling Rates

SERVICE Residential Garbage Yard Waste Residential Garbage (2nd Unit) Residential Recycling Office Paper Recycling Trash in excess of 6 yards Yard Waste in excess of 6 yards Bulky Waste in excess of 60 pounds per item

OLD UNIT PRICE $8.23 $4.76 $8.25 $1.85 $99.75 $35.00 $15.00 $35.00

NEW UNIT PRICE $8.56 $4.95 $8.58 $1.92 $103.74 $36.40 $15.60 $36.40

The new rates will be reflected in the monthly invoice that we receive from All Star Waste Services, LLC. Accordingly, the Towns fees will need to be amended to reflect new unit prices.

M E M O R A N D U MTO: FROM: DATE: RE: The Hon. Mayor and Council William E. Anderson, Town Attorney November 16, 2010 UDO Amendment for Special Exception procedure for reasonable accommodation under Federal Fair Housing Act

_________________________________________________________________ The Federal Fair Housing Act makes it unlawful for anyone ... to discriminate against any person in the terms, conditions or privileges of sale or rental of a dwelling, or in the provision of services or facilities in connection with such dwelling, because of a handicap... and defines discrimination as including ...a refusal to make reasonable accommodations in rules, policies, practices or services, when such accommodations may be necessary to afford such person equal opportunities to use and enjoy a dwelling. The scope of the law extends to landlords, rental agents brokers and local governments. Going back to early 2009, before the Oxford House lawsuit was filed, we were engaged in conversations with the United States Department of Justice about an appropriate procedure to have reasonable accommodations handled by the Board of Adjustment as a Special Exception. Adopting an ordinance providing a mechanism for a hearing whereby a disabled or handicapped person requests such an accommodation is a critical part of the resolution of the existing lawsuit. It is also a reasonable procedure to have adopted even without a lawsuit, as having some means of making a reasonable accommodation for someone, sometime in the future is inherent in living under this law. That is, since the law requires that people have a right to request reasonable accommodation, then a Special Exception is an appropriate way to handle that. The Oxford House matter arose under the Disabled or Handicapped Home section of our ordinance. The other types of group homes which are allowed under the UDO are controlled under specific State regulations which specify exactly how many residents and care-givers there may be, so we do not anticipate any future significant effect of such a Special Exception opportunity except in the Disabled or Handicapped context. A draft of what the ordinance amendment will likely end up looking like is attached for your information. Page 29

(2003) 3250 ENTITLED THE GARNER UNIFIED DEVELOPMENT ORDINANCE FOR THE TOWN OF GARNER AND ITS EXTRATERRITORIAL JURISDICTION Section One. That a new Section 3.17, Special Exceptions be established as follows: 3.17. Special exceptions. A. Applicability. The Board of Adjustment is authorized to grant special exceptions for the special circumstances set forth in this section to allow for a reasonable accommodation under the Federal Fair Housing Act. B. Application. An application for a special exception under this section shall be submitted to the Board of Adjustment by filing a copy of the application with the Planning Director. No filing fee shall be required for such application. C. Approval process. The procedures set forth in Section 3.15.C for variances shall apply to Staff Review and Report, Public Hearing Notice and Action of the Board of Adjustment. D. Approval criteria. The Board of Adjustment shall grant a special exception to any provision of this ordinance as a reasonable accommodation under the Federal Fair Housing Act if the Board finds by the greater weight of the evidence that the proposed special exception is: (i) "Reasonable. " An accommodation will be determined to be reasonable if it would not undermine the legitimate purposes and effects of existing zoning regulations and the benefits that the accommodation would provide to the handicapped, and if it will not impose significant financial and administrative burdens upon the Town and/or constitute a substantial or fundamental alteration of the Town's ordinance provisions);and (ii) "Necessary." An accommodation will be determined to be necessary if it would provide direct or meaningful therapeutic amelioration of the affects of the particular disability or handicap), and would afford handicapped or disabled persons equal opportunity to enjoy and use housing in residential districts in the Town.

Section Two. All ordinances or portions thereof in conflict with this ordinance are hereby repealed.

MEMORANDUM TO: FROM: DATE: SUBJECT: Hardin Watkins Town Manager Brad Bass, AICP Director of Planning November 10, 2010 Public Hearing to Consider Opting Out of the 2010 Permit Extension Act

Background In September 2009 staff reported to the Town Council that the North Carolina General Assembly had adopted the Permit Extension Act of 2009. We advised Council of how that law impacted the permit approvals issued by the Town of Garner. The original 2009 Act provided that the running of any time period for an approved permit was suspended for the three (3) year time period between January 2008 and through December 2010. At the October 26, 2010 Work Session staff advised Council that in August 2010 the General Assembly passed a bill that amended the 2009 Permit Extension Act. The 2010 amendment simply extended the suspended time period until December 2011 (a one year extension). The 2010 amendment grants an additional year of time suspension which results in a permit time period of up to 6 years. The bill also gave local governments the option to opt out of the additional time extension. In order for a local unit of government to opt out it must adopt a resolution prior to December 31, 2010 stating the one-year extension and related amendments in the 2010 Act does not apply to any development approvals issued by that unit of government. The Council directed staff to advertise a public hearing for November 16, 2010 at which time it will consider adopting a resolution to opt out of the 2010 Permit Extension Act. Staff also provided notice to individuals associated with approved unexpired development permits (subdivision and site plans). Survey of Wake County jurisdictions that responded to our inquiry revealed the following: Holly Springs Cary Fuquay-Varina Apex Knightdale Rolesville Wendell Raleigh (not opting out) (going to Council in November; staff recommending opting out) (still under review) (not opting out) (still under review; staff recommending opting out) (Board likely will not opt out) (has opted out) (public hearing scheduled for 11/16/2010)

Page 32

Item H-1 2 of 7

Attachment One is a list of projects currently on file with the Town of Garner that have been approved but are not under construction at this time. Review of the list reveals the following. 1) Fifteen (15) approved CUP/SUP Site Plans where no building permits have been issued as of this date. 3 approved in 2006 4 approved in 2007 6 approved in 2008 2) 1 approved in 2009 1 approved in 2010

Five (5) subdivisions approvals where there has been no construction. 2 approved in 2006 1 approved in 2007 2 approved in 2008

3)

Four (4) staff approved site plans where no building permits have issued and three (3) pending (meaning plans submitted approvals not granted as of this date). 1 approved in 2006 1 approved in 2007 2 approved in 2010

Staff estimates that roughly one-third (8) of 24 affected projects most likely will not be developed. Most of the remaining projects are fairly small scale with exception of the Jameson Place Subdivision (70 lots) and 2 office/warehouse projects in Greenfield North Business Park. Staff does not see any projects on the list that would pose any significant concerns to us (i.e. traffic impacts, community appearance, impacts on neighborhoods). Action The basic question before Council is whether to opt out of the 2010 permit time extension. After conducting the public hearing and receiving public comments, Council will need to consider adoption of the attached resolution to opt out of the 2010 Permit Extension Act. In order to opt out Council action must be taken before December 31, 2010. Please advise if you have questions.

MEMORANDUM TO: FROM: DATE: SUBJECT: Background The Town Council adopted the new 2010 Garner Transportation Plan on October 4, 2010. During the course of discussion regarding the Plan, Council Member Singleton expressed a desire to have more study of the traffic and pedestrian circulation patterns and the improvements that may be needed for the high school and the two middle schools in Garner. He requested this matter be placed on a future Council agenda for consideration. This particular study is outside of the scope of the Transportation Plan Project that was just completed. Therefore, if Council is interested in moving forward on this matter it will need to formally authorize the study to be undertaken and provide funding for it. Findings I requested Scott Lane, our transportation plan consultant, to prepare a scope of work regarding a School Traffic Circulation Study (see attached). The study will provide planning level concepts for potential loading/unloading pattern changes, pavement markings; signage; driveway configurations; parking facilities and related issues for the Towns high school and two middle schools. The work product will be a technical memorandum highlighting current conditions and recommended actions needed to improve those conditions at each school. The fee estimate provided by Mr. Lane to accomplish this task is $12,988. Once the Transportation Plan Project is closed out we should have approximately $5,000 of unused funding that could be applied to the new study. The only remaining task with the Transportation Plan is the production of an Executive Summary Poster. In order to complete the new study an additional $7,988 must be authorized by the Town Council through a budget amendment. I have contacted WCPSS Facilities Design and Construction staff to see if they would consider providing some funding assistance for the study. As of this date I have not been able to speak directly with their staff. Hardin Watkins Town Manager Brad Bass, AICP Director of Planning November 9, 2010 School Traffic Circulation Study

Item I-1 2 of 5

Options 1. If Council wishes to move forward on the School Traffic Circulation Study at this time it will need to authorize the Town Manager to enter into a contact with Stantec Consulting Services, Inc. in the amount of $12,988. Additionally, a budget amendment will need to be placed on the next Council agenda to complete the funding for the study. Delay taking action on this matter and review this item as part the new FY 2011-12 Budget which would delay the development of the study until after July 1, 2011. Other action as deemed appropriate by Council.

November 9, 2010 Town of Garner Planning Department 900 7th Ave., P.O. Box 446 Garner, NC 27529 Attention: Reference: Brad Bass, AICP, Planning Director Revised Scope and Fee Estimate for School Traffic Circulation Study

Dear Mr. Bass (Brad): Pursuant to our most recent conversation, I am attaching a revised sample scope of services and fee estimate for conducting a school traffic circulation study. I have downgraded the cost somewhat to account for a slightly lower level of effort associated with the two middle schools. I am going to assume that your staff can assist with the logistics of setting up meetings with the school and NCDOT officials as called for in the scope of work. Please let me know if you have any additional questions. Sincerely, STANTEC CONSULTING SERVICES INC.

SCOPE OF SERVICES

The following is the Scope of Services for conducting the Garner School Traffic Circulation Study. In advance of the Notice to Proceed, the Consultant recommends that the Town notify the Wake County Public School System and School Principals of the nature of the study. 1.0 1.1 FIELD REVIEW Prepare Base Mapping. The Consultant will prepare a basemap using readily available (Wake County) Orthophotography and NCDOT and NC OneMap data files. The maps will show the location of each of three schools, pedestrian facilities, pavement markings, signage, and relevant geometry within one-quarter mile of the school. Prepare Field Notes. The Consultant will conduct a morning and afternoon loading field review to collect geometric, signal, signage, and pavement marking information at the high school and two middle schools. Conditions during peak loading/unloading times will be noted for the high school; only the morning period will be studied for the middle schools. The Consultant will also coordinate with each schools administrative staff during these field visits (note: recommend notification from Town of Garner be sent to each school prior to these field reviews). Review Conditions with Staff. The Consultant will review the existing conditions and problems at each school and in the vicinity, focusing on automobile and bus activity as well as pedestrian and cycling accommodations/connectivity to surrounding neighborhoods. DEVELOP RECOMMENDATIONS Develop Preliminary List of Recommendations. The Consultant will prepare and map preliminary recommendations with any available options grouped into logical categories of capital expense. Review Recommendations with Staff. The recommended actions will be reviewed with the Town of Garner planning and engineering staff, as well as any interested Town Council and Planning Board members. Adjustments to the recommendations will be made prior to conducting a meeting with external agencies (Task 2.3). Review Recommendations with Staff, NCDOT, and Wake County Public School System (WCPSS). The Consultant will prepare a summary of the recommendations in print and mapped on display size (min. 36 x 36) posters. Comments and recommended adjustments will be noted at this meeting. The meeting logistics will be undertaken by Town of Garner staff. PREPARE FINAL REPORT Adjustments to Draft Report. Final, planning-level cost estimates and conclusory comments will be added to the initial reporting document to produce a final Plan for reception by the Town Council. Final color mapping of the study areas/sites will be included as well, highlighting the recommended actions in priority order. Deliverables include: Map of study area w/recommendations; summary of existing conditions/issues; recommended solutions (including roadway and walkway involving signage, pavement markings, geometrical changes; and procedural/policy modifications) with planning-level, unit-driven cost estimates; meetings with schools officials, NCDOT, and Town staff and Council as listed. The report will be provided in hard copy format (10 color copies) and digital format that includes all data and mapping derived from the project. Presentation to Town Council. The Consultant will make one (1) presentation to the Garner Town Council addressing all three schools, including a final MS-PowerPoint slide deck and five (5) paper and (1) digital copy of the full reports.

Item I-3 1 of 8 RESOLUTION NO. (2010) 2080 RESOLUTION ADOPTING A CODE OF ETHICS FOR THE GARNER TOWN COUNCIL Whereas, the proper operation of democratic government requires that public official be independent, impartial and responsible to the people; and Whereas, government decisions and policy must be made in proper channels of the governmental structure; and Whereas, the public office must not be used for personal gain; and Whereas, the public must have confidence in the integrity of its government; and in recognition of these goals, BE IT HEREBY RESOLVED by the Town Council of the Town of Garner, North Carolina that the following is adopted: CODE OF ETHICS FOR THE GARNER MAYOR AND TOWN COUNCIL The stability and proper operation of democratic representative government depends upon the continuing consent of the governed, upon the public confidence in the integrity of the government and upon responsible exercise of the trust conferred by the people. Government decisions and policy must be made and implemented through proper channels and processes of the governmental structure. The purpose of this code is to establish guidelines for ethical standards of conduct for the Mayor and Town Council and all references herein to the Town Council shall be understood to include the Mayor. It should not be considered a substitute for the law or a Town Council member's best judgment. Town Council members must be able to act in a manner to maintain their integrity and independence, yet must be responsive to the interests and needs of those they represent. Town Council members serve in an important advocacy capacity in meeting the needs of their citizens and should recognize the legitimacy of this role as well as the intrinsic importance of this function to the proper functioning of representative government. At the same time, Town Council members must, at times, act in an adjudicatory or administrative capacity and must, when doing so, act in a fair and impartial manner. Town Council members must know how to distinguish these roles and when each role is appropriate and they must act accordingly. Town Council members must be aware of their obligation to conform their behavior to standards of ethical conduct that warrant the trust of their constituents. Each Town Council member must find within his or her own conscience the touchstone on which to determine appropriate conduct. Section One A Town Council Member Shall Obey the Law Town Council members shall support the Constitution of the United States, the Constitution of North Carolina and the laws enacted by the Congress of the United States and the General Assembly pursuant thereto. Members specifically acknowledge and agree to comply with the requirements of NCGS 14-234 entitled Public officers or employees benefiting from public contracts; exceptions.

Page 46

Item I-3 2 of 8 Section Two A Town Council Member Should Uphold the Integrity and Independence of His or Her Office Town Council members should demonstrate the highest standards of personal integrity, truthfulness, honesty and fortitude in all their public activities in order to inspire public confidence and trust in town government. Town Council members should participate in establishing, maintaining, and enforcing, and should themselves observe, high standards of conduct so that the integrity and independence of their office may be preserved. The provisions of this Code should be construed and applied to further these objectives. Section Three A Town Council Member Should Avoid Impropriety and the Appearance of Impropriety in All His or Her Activities It is essential that town government attract those citizens best qualified and willing to serve. Town Council members have legitimate interests-economic, professional and vocational-of a private nature. Town Council members should not be denied, and should not deny to other Town Council members or citizens, the opportunity to acquire, retain and pursue private interests, economic or otherwise, except when conflicts with their responsibility to the public cannot be avoided. Town Council members must exercise their best judgment to determine when this is the case. Town Council members should respect and comply with the law and should conduct themselves at all times in a manner that promotes public confidence in the integrity of the office of Town Council and of town government. Town Council members should not allow family, social, or other relationships to unduly influence their conduct or judgment and should not lend the prestige of the office of Town Council to advance the private interests of others; nor should they conveyor permit others to convey the impression that they are in a special position to influence them. Town Council members shall not grant any special consideration, treatment or advantage to any citizen beyond that which is available to every other citizen. The Mayor or any member of the Town Council who has an interest in any official act or action before the Council shall publicly disclose on the record of the Council the nature and extent of such interest and shall withdraw from any consideration of the matter if excused by the Council pursuant to NCGS 160A-75. Section Four A Town Council Member Should Perform the Duties of the Office Diligently Town Council members should, while performing the duties of the office as prescribed by law, give precedence to these duties over other activities. In the performance of these duties, the following standards should apply: A. Legislative Responsibilities Page 47

Item I-3 3 of 8 1. Town Council members should actively pursue policy goals they believe to be in the best interests of their constituents within the parameters of orderly decision-making, rules of the Town Council and open government. 2. Town Council members should respect the legitimacy of the goals and interests of other Town Council members and should respect the rights of others to pursue goals and policies different from their own. B. Adjudicative Responsibilities 1. Town Council members should be faithful to the general and local laws pertaining to the office and strive for professional competence in them. They should be unswayed by partisan interests, public clamor, or fear of criticism. 2. Town Council members should demand and contribute to the maintenance of order and decorum in proceedings before the Town Council. 3. Town Council members should be honest, patient, dignified and courteous to those with whom they deal in their official capacity, and should require similar conduct of their staff and others subject to their direction and control. 4. Town Council members should accord to every person who is legally interested in a proceeding before the Council full right to be heard according to law. 5. Town Council members should dispose promptly of the business of the town for which they are responsible. C. Administrative Responsibilities 1. Town Council members should clearly distinguish legislative, adjudicatory and administrative responsibilities and should refrain from inappropriate interference in the impartial administration of town affairs by town employees. Town Council members should diligently discharge those administrative responsibilities that are appropriate, should maintain professional competence in the administration of these duties and should facilitate the diligent discharge of the administrative responsibilities of fellow Town Council members and other town officials. 2. Town Council members should conserve the resources of the town in their charge. They should employ town equipment property, funds and personnel only in legally permissible pursuits and in a manner that exemplifies excellent stewardship. 3. Town Council members should require town employees subject to their direction and control to observe the standards of fidelity and diligence that apply to Town Council members as well as those appropriate for employees. 4. Town Council members who become aware of improper conduct by a town employee should promptly inform the Town Manager, or, in the case of a Town employee who reports directly to the Council, initiate appropriate disciplinary measures. 5. Town Council members should not employ or recommend the appointment of unnecessary employees and should exercise the power of employment only on the basis of merit, avoid

Page 48

Item I-3 4 of 8 favoritism and refrain from illegal discrimination and nepotism. They should not approve compensation of employees beyond the fair value of services rendered. Section Five A Town Council Member Should Conduct the Affairs of the Town Council in an Open and Public Manner Town Council members should be aware of the letter and intent of the State's Open Meetings Law, should conduct the affairs of the Town Council consistent with the letter and spirit of that law and consistent with the need to inspire and maintain public confidence in the integrity and fairness of town government and the office of Town Council. Consistent with this goal of preserving public trust, Town Council members should be aware of the need for discretion in deliberations when the lack of discretion would pose a threat to the resources of the town, to the reputation of current or potential town employees, to orderly and responsible decision making, to the integrity of other governmental processes or to other legitimate interests of the town. Section Six A Town Council Member Should Regulate His or Her Extra Governmental Activities to Minimize the Risk of Conflict with His or Her Official Duties 1. Town Council members should inform themselves concerning campaign finance, conflict of interest and other appropriate state and federal laws and should scrupulously comply with the provisions of such laws. 2. Town Council members should refrain from financial and business dealings that tend to reflect adversely on the Council or on town government or to interfere with the proper performance of official duties. 3. Town Council members should manage their personal financial interests to minimize the number of cases in which they must abstain from voting on matters coming before the Council. 4. Information acquired by Town Council members in their official capacity should not be used or disclosed in financial dealings or for any other purpose not related to official duties. Section Seven A Town Council Member Should Refrain from Political Activity Inappropriate to His or Her Office 1. Town Council members have a civic responsibility to support good government by every available means, to continue to inform and educate the citizenry about the affairs and processes of town government, and to make themselves available to citizens of the town so that they may ascertain and respond to the needs of the community. In doing so, Town Council members may and should join or affiliate with civic organizations whether partisan or non-partisan, may and should attend political meetings, may and should advocate and support the principles or policies of civic or political organizations consistent with the Constitution and laws of the United States and North Carolina.

Page 49

Item I-3 5 of 8 2. Candidates for the office of Town Council, including incumbents: A. Should inform themselves concerning the laws of this state with regard to campaigns and relevant disclosure requirements and should scrupulously comply with the provisions of such laws; B. Should maintain the dignity appropriate to the office, and should encourage members of their families to adhere to the same standards of political conduct that apply to Town Council; C. Should not make pledges or promises of conduct in office that they will not or cannot perform or would be illegal if it were performed; D. Should not misrepresent their identity, qualifications present position, or other fact; and E. Should avoid pledges or promises of conduct in office other than the faithful and impartial performance of the duties of the office. BE IT FURTHER RESOLVED that: 1. A violation of this Code of Ethics may subject a Mayor/Council to a censure Resolution by the Garner Town Council; however, no such censure resolution shall be adopted until the person alleged to have committed the violation has been given notice of the alleged violation and provided with the opportunity to appear before the Council and be heard regarding the allegation. 2. When a Mayor/Council has a question as to the applicability of this code to a particular situation, he or she may apply, orally or in writing, to the Town Attorney for advisory guidance. Upon receipt of a request for advisory guidance and based only upon the information given to the Town Attorney, the Town Attorney will provide advisory guidance to the Mayor/Council. In the Town Attorneys discretion, he may retain outside legal counsel to advise him in connection with any request for advisory guidance. In no event will the Town Attorneys advisory guidance excuse a Mayor/Council from complying with the Code of Ethics or other applicable law.

Adopted this 16th day of November, 2010.
