5 Additional Correspondence/Meetings On December 5, the Economic Development Director met with the property owners fronting on the west side of Old N.C. 86. He explained the proposed EDD, answered questions, and encouraged the residents to meet with the adjoining Cornwallis Hills neighbors. Subsequently, Old N.C. 86 and Cornwallis Hills residents met to discuss solutions to the question of acceptable land uses in the area along the west side of Old N.C. 86. The Economic Development Director has been informed that a letter will be provided by the Cornwallis Hills Homeowners Association supporting the EDD as proposed. If the letter is received, it will be distributed at the meeting. There are, however, still property owners living adjacent to the proposed EDD who favor a Secondary Development Area along the west side of Old N.C. 86.

Allen and Sally Ann Addison; • Adjustment of the EDD boundary to include all of the property of Hugh and Carolyn Moren; and • Adjustment of the 100-foot buffer requirement along the west side of Old N.C.86 adjacent to the right-of-way line. The buffer requirement is not necessary since the property across Old N.C.86 is within Hillsborough's planning and zoning jurisdiction and zoned for commercial use.
