230 <br />provides the residents of Orange County special protections. There has been no discussion as <br />to the impact this new process will have on the rural buffer and extraterritorial districts in Chapel <br />Hifl and Carrboro. <br />Given that the 800 page, updated document was only posted on the website in mid - November <br />and that there has been very little notice or explanation given to the public through the <br />newspapers, it seems that the County Commissioners should revise the current time line and <br />offer the appropriate public hearings and opportunities for public input based on a more <br />accurate description of the process that is unfolding. <br />Sincerely, <br />Linda Finch; Architect <br />1438 Gray Bluff Trail <br />Chapel Hill, NC 27517 <br />From: Kurt Riitters <kriitters @nc.rr.com> <br />Date: Mon, 22 Nov 2010 06:29:18 -0500 <br />Subject: Unified Development Ordinance <br />To: Barry Jacobs <bjacobs@co. orange. nc. us>, Bernadette Pelissier <br /><bpelissier @co.orange.nc.us >, gordon.alice @gmail.com, Mike Nelson <br /><mikenelsonnc@aol.com >, Pam Hemminger <phemminger@bellsouth.net >, Steve Yuhasz <br /><syuhasz@co. orange. nc. us>, Valerie Foushee <Vfoushee @co.orange.nc.us> <br />Dear Board Members, <br />As a resident of Orange County I request that you (a) postpone the vote on the UDO, (b) <br />extend the timeline for this process, and (c) make a sincere effort to educate the public about <br />the purpose and consequences of the 800 -page document which was released only 11 days <br />ago. <br />Thank you, <br />Kurt Riitters <br />1412 US Highway 15 -501 South <br />Chapel Hill <br />From: John or Yvonne Schmidt <schmidj @nc.rr.com> <br />Date: Sun, 21 Nov 2010 22:24:57 -0500 <br />Subject: Unified Development Ordinance <br />To: bjacobs @co.orange.nc.us, bpelissier@co. orange. nc. us, gordon.alice @gmail.com, <br />mikenelsonnc @aol.com, phemminger @bellsouth.net, syuhasz@co.orange.nc.us, <br />Vfoushee @co. orange. nc. us <br />Dear Commissioners, <br />I urge you to postpone the vote scheduled for the Unified Development Ordinance, and to slow <br />things down. This is a long and very complex ordinance and more time needs to be available to <br />provide for information to and input from the public. I don't think it can be properly addressed <br />without advance notice and public hearings. I don't think most of the citizens in Orange County <br />know about it or understand it. <br />
