DRAFT 16 <br />58 Judith Wegner: If there is water and sewer along Bowman Road, I would think that the fact that it's there even -though what you <br />59 just said, there would not intensive development in what is currently green. Would you assume there would potentially be further <br />60 development to the south? <br />61 <br />62 Craig Benedict: Yes and no. We did plan an engineering planning study on what size the gravity sewer lines would have to be <br />63 in this area to take a lot of the upstream. We also considered the size of Mebane's super regional lift station so there are some <br />64 maximums. There would need to be a redesign of this if we are going to accommodate future areas to the south. <br />65 <br />66 Judith Wegner: What does it assume about the Buckhorn Development? <br />67 <br />68 Craig Benedict: The whole Buckhorn Development and out to Gravelly Hill Middle School could all flow this way. <br />69 <br />70 Judith Wegner: It is being sized with that in mind? <br />71 <br />72 Craig Benedict: Yes. <br />73 <br />74 Larry Wright: In one of the previous OUTBoard meetings, Chuck Edwards of DOT said he would like to work with Orange <br />75 County on this and I would like to keep that offer alive. <br />76 <br />77 Craig Benedict: We had a meeting with Chuck Edwards today and we started drawing circles on the map already and we will <br />78 continue that discussion. We are going to see some first cuts of these access management plans later this year. <br />79 <br />80 Perdita Holtz: There is going to be one on an August agenda and the other will come in the November timeframe. <br />81 <br />82 Craig Benedict: We are looking at water sewer and land use and we have also had discussion with Mebane. They are looking <br />83 at a southern loop that would use Rock Quarry Road and come through here. <br />84 <br />85 MorioN made by Judith Wegnerthat we recommend the Commissioners adopt this proposal. We encourage staff to affirmatively <br />86 reach out t9 the neighborhood to keep them informed. Seconded by Buddy Hartley <br />87 VorE: Unanimous <br />88 <br />89 Brian Crawford: I want to add that the amendment outlines are really helpful. I want to compliment staff and it helps me. <br />90 <br />91 Craig Benedict: When we start proposing changes or suggestions, we begin with why are we doing this. <br />92 <br />2 <br />
