9 <br /> 1 "As a consequence the result has often been misery for large segments of the local population <br /> 2 and destruction of valuable ecosystems. Such narrow approaches should be replaced by a <br /> 3 technique for the planning and management of land resources that is integrated and holistic <br /> 4 and where land users are central. This will ensure the long-term quality of the land for human <br /> 5 use, the prevention or resolution of social conflicts related to land use, and the conservation of <br /> 6 ecosystems of high biodiversity value." <br /> 7 <br /> 8 That's how it should be done. Like my neighbor Barbara said in her earlier letter to you: <br /> 9 Sustainability is sometimes better than growth. I think she speaks for everyone who lives on <br /> 10 Old NC 10 Hwy and it's surrounding community. <br /> 11 <br /> 12 Sincerely, <br /> 13 <br /> 14 Jennifer Sharpe, MSW, LCSW <br /> 15 <br /> 16 Orange County Health Department <br /> 17 <br /> 18 <br /> 19 <br /> 20 From: Tonya Lamm �mailto:tonva.lamm(a7qmail.coml <br /> 21 Sent: Wed 9/5/2012 8:49 PM <br /> 22 To: Bernadette Pelissier <br /> 23 Subject: Dont EDE-1 old NC-10 <br /> 24 <br /> 25 The land use classification around Old NC-10 should be removed from the economic <br /> 26 development district, and not be classified EDE-1. <br /> 27 <br /> 28 Old NC-10 is a beautiful rural residential road. The current Land Use Classification*AND <br /> 29 *Zoning is "Rural Residential". Based on negative public input, the planning board proposes to <br /> 30 retain its rural residential zoning, but desires to change the Land Use Classification from rural <br /> 31 residential to EDE-1, which allows for non-residential entities. This would *negatively *impact <br /> 32 our neighborhood in many ways (increased traffic on two-lane road, dangerous underpasses, <br /> 33 depress home values, etc). <br /> 34 <br /> 35 Further, the Zoning and Land use classification would *not be consistent*, which will create <br /> 36 conflicts later. Finally, the Durham plan keeps this entire area as residential in their urban <br /> 37 growth plan. Thus, the Orange County and Durham plans will *not be consistent.* <br /> 38 * <br /> 39 * <br /> 40 I would strongly urge the board not to approve this proposal. The land use classification should <br /> 41 either remain residential or the region around Old <br /> 42 NC-10 should be removed from this economic development district. <br /> 43 <br /> 44 Sincerely, <br /> 45 <br /> 46 Tonya Lamm <br /> 47 6408 Mt Hermon Church Road <br /> 48 Durham <br /> 49 <br /> 50 From: Marjorie Scheer �mailto:mariorie.scheer(a7qmail.coml <br />
