The second is, I've <br /> 39 been reading the NC Legislature's agenda and they have a proposal to push road maintenance and roads from DOT <br /> 40 to the counties. I don't know if it will pass or not but has DOT proposed a turn lane or anything like that on Dairyland. <br /> 41 <br /> 42 Michael Neal: No, and NCDOT has reviewed the plans. Going to the first question, the fire marshal's comment is <br /> 43 that currently there is a fire pond right here (pointed out on map) and there's also Buck Fork Creek and the fire <br /> 44 marshal in his letter suggested Buck Fork may provide the flow that he is requesting. That is something that we will <br /> 45 have to do, either identify this pond or somehow amend Buck Fork Creek and allow a fire point there. <br /> 46 <br /> 47 Tony Blake: Ok,that's all I had. <br /> 48 <br /> 49 Buddy Hartley: Lots three,four and five, is it possible to have an option for them to go to either school district? <br /> 50 <br /> 51 Michael Harvey: The developer can petition, but it has never been my experience that it has been approved (by <br /> 52 Chapel Hill/Carrboro). It is our opinion that those lots will be going to Orange County Schools. <br /> 53 <br /> 1 <br />
