The Recreation and <br />Parks Director has indicated no difficulty with this <br />arrangement. <br />2. A homeowners association should be established to <br />maintain the common area. An optional approach would be <br />to donate the land to the Triangle Land Conservancy. <br />That organization has indicated an interest in the <br />proposal and is willing to meet with the applicant. <br />The Planning Director recommends that lots 1, 2, 9, 10 and 11 <br />
