The roads are as follows: <br />1. Efland Estates Subdivision Section 2 Cain Drive -- Attachment 1a - Ma <br />The requested road addition is about 9.12 -mile long. Ten houses have entrances to the <br />road submitted for addition. The background research showed that Efland Estates <br />Subdivision was recorded in 1972. The County did not adopt subdivision regulations in the <br />Cheeks Township, where the subdivision is located, until 1978. As a result, this project <br />was not reviewed or approved by the county. However, a review of the plat shows that it <br />meets the policy adopted by the Board of County Commissioners (BOCC) for <br />recommending roads for addition to the State Secondary Road Maintenance System: a) <br />right-of-way (ROW) extends to the edge of the property to provide connectivity; and b) irons <br />have been set at the edge of ROW. <br />County Planning Department staff will work with NCDOT on installing a sign at the end of <br />Cain Drive stating that the road is a subject for future extension for connectivity purposes. <br />The Cain Drive petition is the second road addition petition for the Efland Estates <br />subdivision. The BOCC approved a petition for Gregg Street -- a 0.018 -mile long road <br />addition located in the subdivision as a part of a December 5, 2919 consent agenda. <br />2.
