Facts:

  *   Durham County Government is moving into the next phase of the redevelopment of two County-owned sites located at the 300 and 500 blocks of East Main Street.
  *   On July 8, 2019, the Durham Board of County Commissioners selected Laurel Street and ZOM Living to execute on its vision for the two sites.
  *   The proposed plan<https://www.dconc.gov/home/showdocument?id=28019> includes a mix of affordable and market-rate apartments, commercial space along East Main Street, and parking for tenants and County employees.
  *   Citizens are invited to meet representatives from Laurel Street and ZOM Living to gain important information about the future of the 300 and 500 blocks of East Main Street.
  *   The two “Meet the Developer” informational sessions will be held on Saturday, November 2 and Tuesday, November 12.
  *   Durham County staff is currently in negotiations on a Memorandum of Understanding (MOU) with the selected team and is expected to update the BOCC and public in the next three months. An MOU is a nonbinding agreement between the County and each development partner outlining each parties’ requirements and responsibilities, establishing milestones that must be reached before a development agreement can be executed. The MOU must be approved by the BOCC.
