CITIZEN COMN~NTS Jo Soulier, President of the Cornwallis Hills Homeowners Association, clarified that the annexation of Cornwallis Hills is due to happen next April or May. She made comments on the addition of the remainder of the Addison property to the EDD. Their concern is that this property is adjacent to 50 acres of future development of Cornwallis Hills. She said that if it is included, perhaps some of it could be left as green space. She is glad that the access is not going to come through Cornwallis Hills, but it will disturb the creek. Regarding the proposal that eliminates the 100 foot buffer along jurisdictional lines, she feels that the wording of this proposal will mean that, once Cornwallis Hills is annexed, the jurisdictional line will be the same as their property line and there will be no buffer between the EDD and their homes. Future jurisdictional lines are moving targets under this proposal the way it is worded. She suggested that the buffer be left in place and changed only through a special use permit. Judy Brown who lives on Stagecoach Run made reference to a map and section III of Stagecoach Run. She showed her location on lot 7 and the two lots being proposed for addition to the EDD. They bought their lot in 1993 and were told that they were part of Section III and that they would have a buffer as a residential lot. They have restrictive covenants which indicate that each and every lot should be used for residential purposes only. She noted that the two lots comprise such a small area and questions what purpose they would serve. She is opposed to the addition of these two lots to the EDD. Dan Lanigan read a letter from Mr. Stephen K. Riddle, President of the Stagecoach Run Homeowner's Assoc. This letter is in the agenda on page 17. He asked that lots 1, 2, 3, and 4 on Tax Map 4 SE, Sec. 3, Block A, plat book 27, page 5 remain part of the Stagecoach Run development and that there be a 100 foot buffer between the boundaries of the Stagecoach Run development and the EDD. They asked that the Orange County Planning Board exclude Lot 4.45..2E from the EDD and include the 100 foot buffer originally proposed and agreed upon at their meeting with the Planning Dept. in May of 1993. Mr. Lanigan stated that he strongly opposes the inclusion of these four lots into the EDD and furthermore the two lots north of that would be landlocked with no road access if this was approved. He asked that this amendment not be approved. Mr. Huge Moren stated that he and his wife are co-owners of the land requested for inclusion in the EDD. He was unaware of the concerns of the neighbors in the Stagecoach development. He noted that with part of his land in primary and part in secondary, it makes it very difficult to develop property in two different zonings. He does have a letter from one of the adjacent property owners supporting this
