Due to the issues raised during the <br />hearing, the Board of Aldermen proposed that a facilitated planning conference be held, <br />at which a consensus plan would be developed. <br />April 8, 1998 Public Hearing <br />Proposed amendments to the Joint Planning Area (JPA) Land Use Plan and Map and <br />the Joint Planning Agreement to incorporate the Facilitated Small Area Plan for <br />Carrboro's Northern Study Area were presented at the April 8, 1998 JPA Public Hearing <br />
