County. The Orange County Board of Commissioners adopted the JPA land use amendments <br /> at its June 3, 2014 meeting. <br /> The Towns of Chapel Hill and Carrboro considered the amendments at meetings in June, but <br /> opted to continue to contemplate the JPA amendments, with the Town of Carrboro Board of <br /> Aldermen in particular noting it wished to delve into the details of the UDO zoning amendment, <br /> which would implement the JPA land use amendments. It is anticipated that the JPA land use <br /> amendments, with discussion about the related UDO zoning amendments, will be on Town <br /> agendas sometime in September. <br /> Perdita Holtz said the purpose tonight is solely to further defer action on the proposed <br /> text amendments until November 18, 2014 in order to allow additional time for necessary <br /> amendments to be made to the Joint Planning Area Land Use Plan and Agreement. <br /> She said Commissioner Gordon provided some clarifying language regarding the <br /> reason for the deferred hearing, and this is on the pink sheet at the Commissioners' places. <br /> A motion was made by Commissioner Gordon, seconded by Commissioner Price for <br /> the Board to: <br /> 1. Open the public hearing, and <br /> 2. Defer the hearing by adjourning it to November 18, 2014 in order to allow time for the <br /> necessary amendments to the Joint Planning Area Land Use Plan and Agreement to be <br /> further considered, including the language changes made by Commissioner Gordon. <br /> VOTE: UNANIMOUS <br /> 6.

She said their support had put a spotlight on Orange County <br /> locally and in other areas. She said she just wanted to bring special attention to this. <br /> Commissioner Price said the advertising is great, but she would like to also see them <br /> highlight the cultural and ethnic diversity of Orange County. <br /> Laurie Paolicelli asked for clarification. <br />
