S Chappell [Signature #461] https://www.gopetition.com/signature/locate/20939261?utm_medium=rss I am not in favor of spending more money on a project that benefits only select part of Orange county and it's residents at the cost of others. Taxes are to high now and this will only increase them. The project has not turned the first shovel of dirt and cost are already going up. No one knows what it will cost in the long run to build and maintain.

It is important to consider how much each project will benefit the citizens of Orange County and rank funding accordingly. This is a substantive enough change in facts regarding this project to require a new referendum. This is not the cost that the voter's agreed upon.

As someone who commutes this corridor every day from Southern Chapel Hill, the majority of cars exit at 54 heading towards 40 and RTP. It would seem to make more sense to have a system that runs along 40 to Raleigh(including a feeder to the airport). There appears to be more vehicle congestion along this corridor than the Chapel Hill Durham Corridor.

And while I understand the intent and want of a light rail, is that really the most pressing issue facing Orwnge County. A much more pressing issue is lowering the already incredibly high taxes so that more businesses and people would move here and do business here. After that you can worry about light rails.

Call on our County Commissioners to delay a commitment of funds (letter of intent) until: (1) Orange County citizens gain a complete understanding of the consequences of the $40 million commitment; and (2) the Board of Commissioners can independently evaluate all the benefits and costs of the Light Rail project in the light of these cost increases.

I for one would not benefit from this rail service and therefore do not feel it is my responsibility to help pay for such project with my tax dollars. I also do not feel that if the monies needed to provide for such a project need to come from residents,it would be unfair and therefore we do not need such a project here in Hillsborough

It has been brought to my attention of dramatic increase in cost projection. On that alone, I would advise OCC to delay decision for funding this project. As a rural resident, I do not want to pay taxes for this project that has no benefit for me. Thank you.

2) The train route is to be built in protected drinking water reservoir lands owned by the Army Corps of Engineers.
3) The route requires the CHCCS to give up land at Glenwood Elementary School, which imposes a replacement cost on the school district's taxpayers.
4) The gargantuan cost to the county for this extremely limited service far outweighs any benefits, whether economically, ecologically, and in terms of alleviating traffic.

1. It is unclear who this project will benefit other than people living close to the rail line and who work at UNC, Duke or in downtown Durham. This is a small percentage of the Orange and Durham county populations.
2. It is a very expensive project and Orange County is being asked to pay for a large portion of it even though only a small part of the line goes through Orange County.
3. What is really needed is green ways connecting Chapel Hill and Durham allowing people to travel in environmentally friendly ways at a fraction of the cost.

I encourage the Commissioners to put an end to the Light Rail project. This project will only benefit a small minority in the county and will, therefore, never be self-supporting. This project will always be a tax albatross around the necks of tax paying residence of Orange County.

We have & do own a considerable amount of land which we desire to keep in agricultural use with beef cows, growing hay, providing & enhancing the beautiful vistas for ALL in Orange County to enjoy when they are biking or driving by.
The costs are too high, bus and shuttle transit are much less expensive ( running 10 to 1). This more efficient bus, shuttle transit can be flexible, meeting constant need changes in Orange Co.
When we originally approved the .50 cents for Transportation Sales Tax, it was just that!!! ALL transportation venues should be explored NOT jumping in (which our commissioners did) not soberly analyzing the costs or consequences.
Please, please we did approve $ at the Ballot box BUT I strongly oppose another 3-7% rise in taxes. We can't afford the costs, consequences & little population it would actually service. Let's be pro active and listen to cities who have disbanded these expensive plans for bus, shuttle plans.
You ALL are accountable to us the land owners & we are watching closely the positive & negative choices you make!!

Light rail is not the best use of our transportation dollars and our needs would be better served with rapid bus transit: It's cheaper, more flexible, and less environmentally intrusive. Lastly, I cannot support the substantial tax increases that would be required to finance and maintain light rail transit.

Other surrounding jurisdictions have pulled out, dumping entire burden on Orange County and Chapel Hill. Will encumber our children forever. Buses are economically feasible, trains are not.

Our auto traffic is simple too much.

If I don't have the money I have to wait till I do. Why is government thinks they can keep on spending without any repercussions

Light Rail will be used enough to warrant spending such allot of tax money on it.

I implore you to request further information, including but not limited to ridership projections, financial plans (esp since they've already changed at least once!) and look at whether this project (and our taxpayer money) is going to improve the lives of most Orange County residents (not just to say we have light rail service), and to look at alternatives which may be of greater benefit, especially to disadvantaged residents.

The Go Triangle has been unethical and deceptive in speaking with Govt and tad payers.
There maybe 0 % funding from the state.
Stop the Light Rail!
