The following <br />items are proposed for consideration at the November 23, 2009 Quarterly Public Hearing: <br />1. Rezoning -Intersection of NC 54 and White Cross Road <br />2. Sign Ordinance Amendments -Outdoor Advertising Signs (Billboards) <br />3. Telecommunication Wireless Support Structures (Towers) <br />Additional Information: <br />1.

This issue was rectified with a recent text amendment to <br />Section(s) 4.2.8 and 4.2.9 of the Zoning Ordinance approved by the BOCC on August 18, 2009. As <br />result of this text amendment, the review of the petition can move forward. Staff is recommending <br />that the petition be re-presented at the November 23, 2009 Quarterly Public Hearing so that staff <br />can introduce a revised recommendation. <br />
