41 <br /> Commissioner Willhoit suggested changes in some recommendations: with <br /> regard to # 4, he said recent studies done by the State indicated the possibility <br /> of a large dam on Corporation Lake and consequently, he would modify # 8 to delete <br /> the sentence beginning "Medium- and high-density residential housing'...McGown Creek <br /> sub-basin." He added that references to "If development intensifies in McCown <br /> Creek" should also be deleted "because under what I am proposing we would not <br /> be proposing any higher intensity development in the ticGown Creek sub-basin than <br /> in the rest of the ah Upper Eno." Beginning with "If development intensifies..." <br /> i <br /> Commissioner Willhoit said the remainder of the paragraph in #8 should be struck. <br /> Concerning # 10, Commissioner Willhoit said to strike references to ."bxtending <br /> i <br /> i water and sewer lines into McCown Creek sub-basin"; he clarified that such extension <br /> I was dependent on the ultimate site of the dam : and was consistent with "al'I our <br /> discussions that at some point sewer lines will be extended in the vicinity :,r" ?- <br /> r <br /> 85." He continued to leave in the reference that the "Upper Eno watershed in accord- <br /> ance with the Land Use Plan." For recommendation It 12, Commissioner Willhoit <br /> suggested striking reference to lot size; there was a consensus that this would <br /> entail striking the entire recommendation # 12. <br /> Responding to a question regarding the necessity of returning the amended <br /> recommendations to another public hearing, Commissioner Willhoit said his under- <br /> standing was that these deletions were less restrictive than what was taken to <br /> public hearing and therefore, no second public hearing was required. <br /> r <br /> Mr. 5hanklin, Planning Board member, said he thought an 18th recommen-ation <br /> regarding the New Hope Creek Watershed had been adopted. Planning Board nrinutes <br /> were consulted and it was noted that the motion to include an 18th recommendation <br /> on New Hope Creek Watershed had not passed. <br /> Commissioner Gustaveson suggested that the Board hear audience comments <br /> i on the proposed changes to the recommendations; accordingly, Chairman Whitted <br /> i <br /> i reviewed the recommendations: # 5, # 7, he said had been "taken care of"; <br /> #8 had been amended /see above7; # 9 reads as is; # 10 had been amended /See <br /> above_%; # 12 had been deleted as above, however, Commissioner Willhoit said the <br /> last sentence, regarding the impervious surface ratio should remain; # 13, <br /> CI Chairman Whitted coniitued, hA been "dealt with"; and # 14, 15, 16 and 17 were <br /> as printed. Chairman Whitted asked for audience comments on the recommendations. <br /> Mr. Ben Lloyd, Route 1, Efland, asked Commissioner Willhoit to "clarify" the <br /> changes he had made in the recommendations; Commissioner Willhoit did so. <br /> i <br /> a <br />
