In <br /> 1987 the participating entities adopted a Joint Planning Agreement (hereafter `JPA') <br /> establishing parameters for the review and approval of development projects within the area. <br /> The Plan envisions two (2) distinct types of development areas, namely. <br /> • Transition Areas: Areas of future urban growth administered by the Towns of Chapel Hill <br /> and Carrboro under their individual land use and zoning regulations in accordance with <br /> the Plan. The County's role in the Transition Areas is to review and comment on <br /> development proposals, as well as text and atlas amendments, as detailed within the <br /> JPA. <br /> • Rural Buffer: Areas outside of the aforementioned Transition Areas under County <br /> regulatory control intended to remain rural in character where annexation is prohibited <br />
