Mrs. Estes noted that the foregoing had been continued to this meeting from the previous Council Meeting; she requested continuation to the next meeting so as to allow additional staff study and review of the Land Use Plan, as requested by Council.
On motion by Councilman Montgomery, seconded by Councilman Garson, Council unani-mously approved continuation of the Public Hearing to the June 26 Council Meeting.
Mayor Ritter then closed the Public Hearings portion of the meeting.

(Resolution of Intent to be included in final minutes.)
Ms. Kimberly Lillig, 925 Warren Avenue, appeared before the Council to express,
her concerns regardicg the Shearon Harris Nuclear Power Plant. Ms; Lillig read and presented a copy of a resolution for Council's consideration. She expressed concern over her home's location downwind from the plant, her family's safety in event of an accident at the plant, evacuation plans for school children, and responsibility of school bus drivers. She referred to the need for Cary to be included in a well con.
sidered evacuation plan. Ms. Lillig also requested that Cary conduct an educational meeting to answer the questions and concerns of the citizens.
Mrs. Donna Davidson, 519 S. Harrison Avenue, noted her concerns and cited the j
lack of an adequate evacuation plan for all of Wake County. She referenced the Chernobyl plant accident and the evacuation of those residents. Also, she noted Cont'd...
I l
Cary Town Council Hinutes June 12,1986 Pqe 3 4
Cary's population lying within the wind pattern for any accident which could occur.
Reference was made to statistics regarding lack of real safety in Nuclear Power Plants and the evacuation, should it be necessary, of those unable to help them-i selves, as well as who would be willing to stay behind, exposing themselves to radiation in order to assure evacuation of others. Mrs. Davidson requested Council consideration of a resolution to withhold licensing of the Shearon Harris Nuclear Power Plant until a workable evacuation plan is in place.
Mr. William Grahaa, Vice Chairman of Carolina Power and Light Company, noted last year's 135 growth rate in Cary, the highest in the 30,000 miles served by CP&L. He noted CP&L's attempt to reassure, through education, the safety factors included in I
the construction of the Shearon Harris Plant. He cited present operations and their outstanding safety records, since 1971; no one has ever experienced radiation con-tamination. Mr. Graham indicated the significant differences between the Chernobyl plant and the Shearon Harris plant; he further indicated the additional safety requirements since the Three Mile Island incident. Mr Graham also noted the 4-1/2' thick concrete, steel reinforced, walls, 2-1/2' thick ceiling, water cooled contain-ment. as opposed to graphite used at Chernobyl. In other countries, he noted, less than a ten-mile radius is considered safe for evacuation requirements; the 10 mile radius is considered very conservative for the United States. According to all sta-tistics, according to Mr. Graham, there is 1 out of 8 chances that a melt down would occur in the next 2000 years. He noted that there is an emergency and evacuation plan for the 10 mile radius and it has been studied and planned by authorities in that field. He requested support for the Shearon Harris Nuclear Power Plant.
Ms. Lillig, in rebuttal, advised that she did not wish to get into a debate on comparisons between the two plants; however, benefits and risks are involved. She reiterated her concerns for the safety of her family.
Mr. Graham had no further comments to add.
In comments from Council, Councilman Godbold noted the discussion during the Safety Committee Meeting and the confidence in present plans for any type accident requiring evacuation in Cary. He recommended support of the safety staff and con-tinuous updating of evacuation plans. Councilman Montgomery also expressed his con-fidence in the implementation of an emergency evacuation in Cary. He suggested a possible education of the public on the current plans. Councilman Hinshaw advised of his tour of the plant and assured there was no lack of concern on behalf of the Council.
He, too, agreed that a public information program would assist in allaying some of the citizen concerns. Councilman Brooks commented that many years of exper-tise have gone into the construction of the Shearon Harris Plant and considered safety factors addressed in this construction.
Mayor Pro Ten Booth entered a motion to adopt a resolution in support of the start up of the Shearon Harris Plant, with the proper safety devices that the Town of j
Cary has in place now. Councilman Godbold seconded the motion and Council unani-I mously approved.
Councilman Godbold, Councilman Garson, and Councilman Hinshaw commended the con-tinuing education of the safety personnel and noted confidence in staff to approach any incident in a most professional manner. Education of the public would be a course of action to help the citizens understand the amount of study which has scne into considering the safety of the residents of Cary. Mayor Ritter also commented that input would be welcomed, in writing, and will be considered. He noted the Council's strong concern for the health, safety, and welfare of its citizens.
Council confirmed that Fire Chief Wed Perry in the person designated as coor-dinator for Cary in the event of any type incident / accident; his people work with the Police personnel in implementing a designated plan.
Mr. Charles Henderson, Town Attorney, reminded Council of a decision to return to the 7:30 p.m. convening time for Town Council meetings, and presented an amendment to the Code of ordinances.

Green Hope Partnership, 100.52 acres Mrs. Estes indicated the location of the property on the west side of Hwy 55, north of Hi House Road.
Councilman Brooks expressed his continued concern over annexing beyond Highway 55 with no plans for the area. Councilman Hinshaw reiterated the concerns and added that the petitioners should be made aware of Council's awareness of no land use plan for the vicinity. Further, disposition of sewage needs to be addressed. Mayor Pro Ten Booth requested staff to provide a proposed land use for the area. Councilaan Godbold requested, due to Council's lack of familiarity with the area, that a larger map, shcwing surrounding area also, be placed on the Council Chamber wall; a com-parison needs to be seen.
Mayor Pro Tem Booth entered a motion to approve the resolution. Councilman Garson seconded the action. On call for vote, all except Councilman Brooks and Councilman Hinshaw voted " AYE"; Councilman Brooks and Councilman Hinshaw voted "NO."
The following was adopted by majority vote of the Council:

Mr. Summers requested consideration of a request to hold a Public Hearing con-cerning Section 19 of the Zoning Code of Ordinances to allow development on R-20 lots of record.
Mayor Ritter advised that discussion of item 12 on the Agenda, Old Business, would also be discussed at this time, due to similarity of subject matter.
Councilman Montgomery commented on problems encountered where originally platted l
lots as 20,000 SF, under the Raleigh zoning, have come into Cary under R-30.
Develop =ent is being considered and water / sever service is not available, requiring wells and septic tanks; Wake County Health Department usually requires 30,000 SF lots I
for septic tank permits. He expressed concern over development in this manner on i
20,000 SF lots.
He referenced a situation considered by the Board of Adjustment, whereby the Health Department had permitted installation of a septic tank and the concern of the adjoining property owners for their wells. It had been requested that the septic tank be placed in front of the property where wells would not be subjected to contamination.
+
Councilman Godbold reminded Council that the Wake County Health Department is the only source for dictating location of a septic tank and the per.
mitting of same.
Council discu.ased the exchange of properties with Raleigh when the construction of I-40 was approved.
Council was reminded of the process, at that time, of like zoning or grandfathering, when these exchanges occurred.
A recollection that those lots would te referred to the Board of Adjustment for deliberation and decision was also mentioned.
Mr. Summers advised that twelve lots are presently under this situation and need consideration for development. Also, he noted, a septic tank may be located no less than 50 feet from a well; in the aforementioned case, the septic tank is 52' from the nearest well and it has been double checked by the Health Department Supervisor.
In addition, the soil on the lot was noted to perk well.

On motion by Councilman Godbold, seconded by Councilman Brooks, Council unani-mously approved award of contract to J. F. Wilkerson Construction Co., with con-ditions as stated.

(Bid Summary to be included in final minutes.)
Staff recommended award to low bidder, Bunn's Backhoe and Construction Co. of Kenly, NC, in the amount of $21,792.50; contract time is 60 days, with liquidated damages clause of $200.00 per day.
Councilman Godbold raised a question on PVC pipe installation and Mr. Ron Singleton, Town Engineer, advised that the pipe will be the C900 type, which is about as durable as ductile pipe.

Mayor Ritter noted that services would not be cut; in fact, with maintaining the current tax rate, with no increase, services will be increased.
Mrs. Nixon inquired about horticulture maintenance and requested consideration for an urban forester on staff; she cited areas where this person's expertise could be used. She also suggested possible contract to provide secretarial support for boards and commissions, for night meetings and minutes. The need for additional staff secretaries was cited; Mayor Ritter advised of proposal for a secretarial pool.
She further noted that Cary provides less time, per capita, to the Appearance Commission, than any other town in the Triangle J area which have Appearance Commissions.
She noted she did not see an entrance sign proposed in the budget; she was assured it was covered in the proposed budget. In answer to question on funds to the Chamber of Commerce for recruiting people, Mrs. Nixon was assured that the funds were to recruit non-residential, high quality industrial development and the funds have been more than off-set by the increase in tax base.
Mr. David Post apprised Council of an electrical power malfunction which erased his computer input and noted an error like this was caused by CP&L; he expressed con.
cern that a company like this is going to be allowed to operate a Nuclear Power Plant.
Council expressed their indication that this was probably caused by another source, such as a vehicle hitting a pole or a contractor cutting the line, causing a power failure.
Mr. Jerry Phillips,1302 Seabrook Avenue, CP&L employee, offered his support, in any way, to assist in educating the public regarding the Shearon Harris plant.
Mr. Scott Auger, 403 Warren Avenue, approached the Council regarding a solution to an existing problem with upkeep of the pond and surrounding grounds in Coronado Village.
Council advised Mr. Auger of Mr. O' Dell Thompson's responsibility for the property and the Town's not being able to work on private property. Councilman Garson reminded Council of previous discussion on the subject and the Town did now the grass once and Mr. Thompson was billed; he will not reimburse the Town when the Town cleans it up.
Suggestion was made by Council that the pond be drained, filled, and a park constructed.
Mr. Wayne Mingis, Parks and Recreation Director and resident 1
of the referenced neighborhood, commented that the pond serves a valid purpose for i
preventing flooding. The homeowners, through the Garden Club, had been offered and refused to take over the pond. Council requested that Mr. Thompson be contacted to encourage him to take appropriate action.
Under Old Business, Councilman Codbold entered a motion to remove a tabled item for additional consideration.
Councilman Carson seconded the motion and Council una-nimously approved reconsideration of the following:

Mr. Bob Monroe, Attorney for the developer, questioned any other more appropriate development for the parcel and considered proposed development to be a protection to the entrance into Cary.
J Councilman Godbold noted that the infringement is pecbably 200' from I-40; it is off of the exit ramp.
Councilman Brooks entered a motion to approve the site plan with agreed covenants to be enforced for 20 years, with 5 year automatic renewal unless terminated by the l
Town or by agreement. Councilman Godbold seconded the motion.

Dear Sir:
As fo$mer Governors of North Carolina, we feel an oblication to speak to the questions of the need for the Shenron Harri5
]
Nuclear Plant in our State.
Some 20 years ago, as North Carolina was beginning to crow vigorously with the emergence of the Research Triangle and other i
areas, it became clear that our State's f ull potential in providing i
poes and opportunities for our people would be served by a ce=ni -
ment to use nuclear power.
That commitment was confirmed by our State Utilities Commission granting a " Certificate of Public Con-venience and Necessity units now in operation,"or under construction in North Carolina.f or the constr Nuclear plants in our State and every state are closely supervised by the Nuclear Regulatory Commission in their design, engineering and construction to. assure safety.
The Atomic Safety and Licensine Board has found that the Harris Plant should be granted a license
~
for coeration--a decision reached after years of public hearings regarcing public safety.
Clearl in case o' y nuclear plants must have adequate evacuation plans accidents or disaster 0.
The plan for the Harris Plant has oeen oeveloped by professionals in government who are trained and equipped to respond to emergencies.
The State must continue to insure that these pl,ans are adequate and work with local govern-
- ments to that end.
North Carolina needs the power from its nuclear plants,for
.Jobs and economic growth.
t
- s 1
~
e The Editor The News and Observer Pace Two June 13,1986 We hope that if there are remaining questions about the Harri Plant, they will be resolved quickly and in a way to assure its s
safe operation and efficient generation of power for our citizens.
Sincerely,
- '}R rye i C-r g,
