22 <br /> Piney Mountain Homeowners Association <br /> Mount Sinai Road, Orange County, N.C. <br /> December 21, 1993 <br /> Mr. Calvin Horton <br /> Chapel Hill Town Manager <br /> 306 N. Columbia Street <br /> Chapel Hill, N.C. 27516 <br /> Re: Piney Mountain <br /> Request for Expedited Review by Chapel Hill Town Council <br /> Dear Mr. Horton: <br /> Petition to the Chapel Hill Town Council <br /> Thank you for meeting recently with Ms. Bes Baldwin, a member of the Piney Mountain <br /> Homeowners Association, concerning Piney Mountain's application to OWASA and the Orange <br /> County Commissioners for permission to install a pressurized sewer line from Piney Mountain <br /> to the City of Durham sewer line at Kerley and Mt. Sinai Road in Durham County. Such a line <br /> would be constructed in accordance with specifications of OWASA and the City of Durham, and <br /> would be restricted to existing lots in the Piney Mountain Subdivision. No new phases or <br /> additions to the subdivision or adjacent to the subdivision would be permitted to utilize the line. <br /> Mr. Ken Wright, Director of Engineering with the City of Durham is in the process of <br /> confirming by letter the willingness of the City of Durham to permit such a hookup to the <br /> Durham City sewer line, and I will forward to you a copy of his letter as soon as I receive it. <br /> In your meeting with Bes, you recommended that Piney Mountain submit a petition to you for <br /> presentation to the Chapel Hill Town Council at its January 10, 1994 meeting. Piney Mountain <br /> should then present in 3 minutes its request for a nonbinding resolution by the Council approving <br /> Piney Mountain's request to OWASA and Orange County. You anticipated that the Council <br /> would then refer the matter to staff. Following investigation and recommendations by staff, the <br /> matter would then come back to the Council for action at the January 25 or February 14, 1994 <br /> meetings, depending on how soon your staff could be ready to make a recommendation. <br /> Enclosed (Attachment 1) is a draft of a nonbinding resolution which we would propose for <br /> consideration by the Chapel Hill Town Council. We have drafted this resolution on the <br /> assumption that Chapel Hill will not approve or disapprove of Piney Mountain's request; <br /> instead, Chapel Hill will register its concurrence with whatever judgment is reached by OWASA <br /> and Orange County. Is this the correct approach? <br />
