Utility line size (i.e. 8" versus 12"). Staff had originally recommended a 12" water and sewer <br />line for the project. During meetings the applicant indicated there is no inherent difference <br />between the two lines. The Boards requested additional information. <br />Applicant Response: <br />The applicant and staff met with the Orange Alamance Water System (OAWS) <br />board of directors on July 28, 2011 to review these issues. <br />According to the applicant and OAWS there is no demonstrable difference <br />between the two options in respect to water flow. <br />iii. OAWS has recommended an 8" line. <br />
