November 18, 2002 <br /> <br />Dr. Harold Winkler, Superintendent <br />Cabarrus County Schools <br />Administrative Offices <br />PO Box 388 <br />Concord NC 28026-~ <br />Dear D~er: "'" <br /> <br />As we have indicated in the past, the City of Concord is very concerned about the impact of residential <br />growth on schools. Schools are a key part of the local quality of life, which is my reason for writing. <br /> <br />I know that the school system and Cabarrus County government wgrk with developers'to obtain land <br />and/or financial contributions for schools. Cabarms County governs that procedure through an Adequate <br />Public Facilities Ordinance. Two years ago, the Concord City Council adopted the Unified Development <br />Ordinance. The UDO includes Adequate Public Facilities requirements. The APF provisions in the UDO <br />were jointly drafted by planners from COncord, Kannapolis and Cabarms County. They mirror the <br />Cabarms County ordinance. <br /> <br />The City of Concord has not been able to participate fully in the APF. process for schools in the absence <br />of a legally defensible formula to use with developers in determining appropriate contributions to mitigate <br />· findings of inadequate school capacity. In the past, the City of Concord planners have routinely provided <br />copies of proposed preliminary subdivision plats for new developments to Robert Kluttz at Cabarms <br />County Schools. We are pleased to have that partnership with the school system on development reviews. <br />However, we would like to build on that relationship and make the input from your staff, more ora <br />determining factor in our approval process. We would like to examine ways to formalize and expand the <br />City application of the APF standards as ~hey relate to schools. However, we want this to be based on <br />real impact that will stand up in court. <br /> <br />If you are interested in exploring how we might work more closely together, I will be glad to arrange a <br />meeting of the appropriate City staff with members of your staff and Cabarms County staff to discuss the <br />matter. <br /> <br />Cc: <br /> <br /> JeffYoung, Planning & Community Development Director <br /> Margaret Pearson, Development Review Administrator <br /> Debbie Rayman; Planning Services Manager <br />.4~ank Clifton, Cabarrus Cohnty Manager <br /> Mayor Padgett and Members of City Council <br /> <br />Office of the City Manager <br />'CityofCrxro~ · 261JrdonStmetSouth · P.O.
