000320 <br /> Marvin Collins indicated that following the State action plan, the <br /> 1/2" stormwater requirement, the 50 foot stream buffer and the 6, 121, 30 <br /> impervious surface limits were reviewed. In accordance with the State plan, <br /> the 6% and 30% impervious surface limits are not applicable because the County <br /> does not have any portion of the critical areas within the Falls or the Jordan <br /> in Orange County. Because of the minimum lot size requirement of one acre the <br /> 12% impervious surface limits are being implemented by the State. Within the <br /> Zoning Ordinance the watershed standards are aimed at locally designated <br /> watersheds. A recent amendment to the Subdivision Regulations, which applies <br /> county-wide, requires that all new subdivisions comply with the 1/2" <br /> stormwater requirement and the 50-foot stream buffers. It is the feeling of <br /> the Planning Staff that the County is in compliance with the State Action <br /> Plan. <br /> 8. EXTENDED AREA 2YI12HCNE SERVICE BEMEW CHAPEL HILL, DURHAM AND <br /> HILLS (The complete narrative is in the permanent agenda file in the <br /> Clerk's office) . <br /> Three years ago a vote was taken to determine the level of citizen <br /> interest in extended area service. Hillsborough subscribers voted to accept <br /> the proposal, while Chapel Hill and Durham voted to turn it dawn. Because of <br /> the further linkage between the three communities since the vote, efforts to <br /> establish an extended toll-free area need to be renewed. <br /> Chair Willhoit suggested that two groups be formed. The first <br /> would be technical and deal with the service-related problems with Centel and <br /> a second group would include consumers and representatives from the other <br /> telephone companies located in Orange County. <br /> Motion was made by Commissioner Carey, seconded by Commissioner <br /> Lloyd to establish a technical task force and an extended area service task <br /> force. <br /> V=: UNANIMOUS. <br /> J.
