35 <br /> V � Li u-tJ LLLIII <br /> 9 <br /> Mary Willis explained the process that is followed by the Board of <br /> Adjustment in considering a variance. The same process would be followed <br /> except it will be approved by the staff instead of the Board of Adjustment. <br /> Commissioner Gordon questioned if the Board of Adjustment would <br /> make the same findings as the staff. Also, she feels that each lot approved <br /> is impacting negatively on the quality of Lake Orange. <br /> Geoffrey Gledhill explained that the Board of Adjustment will <br /> consider if the lot can be used for any other purpose. The variance power is <br /> a constitutional safety valve which allows dimensional requirements to be <br /> varied so that a piece of property can be used. What often happens is that <br /> a developer will sell a lot and the owner of the lot then must apply for a <br /> variance. There is no way to force a developer to resubmit a redesigned <br /> subdivision. <br /> Commissioner Gordon suggested limiting the number of bedrooms for <br /> each dwelling so that less effluent is generated. <br /> Chair Carey stated that the issue is whether the Board should <br /> approve the reduction so this can be handled as a staff function or comply <br /> with the current ordinance which means the owners would have to go to the <br /> Board of Adjustment is order to get approval. <br /> Commissioner Willhoit made reference to differentiating between the <br /> different watersheds. Cane Creek is a primary source of water and Lake orange: <br /> is secondary. He asked if they could differentiate on the basis of primary <br /> and secondary supply. <br /> Everette Billingsley suggested categorizing each reservoir as <br /> either type "A" or type "B" . A type "A" reservoir is one where water is drawn <br /> directly while a type "B" reservoir is one where water is drawn indirectly <br /> like Lake Orange. The type "A" reservoirs could then be exempted from this <br /> regulation. <br /> In answer to a question from Chair Carey on reducing the setback <br /> from 300' to 2001 , Mary Willis said that it would help because there would be <br /> some lots that would fall in that range. <br /> the County Commissioners postponed this item for further discussion, <br /> and the possibility of incorporating into the watershed regulations the type <br /> "A" and type "B" language. <br /> C. NORTH CAROLINA STATE - COUNTY CRIMINAL JUSTICE PARTNERSHIP ACT <br /> A motion was made by Commissioner Insko, seconded by Chair Carey <br /> to authorize the formation of a workgroup composed of a Commissioner from <br /> Chatham and Orange Counties, the two County Managers, the two County Sheriffs, <br /> the District Attorney, and the Executive Director of OPC Mental Health to <br /> determine the feasibility and desirability of Chatham and Orange Counties <br /> pursuing multi-county programs under the Act and to report to the respective <br /> Boards within 45 days. <br /> VOTE: UNANIMOUS <br /> D. PINEY MOUNTAIN SUBDIVISION UTILITY SERVICE EXTENSION AGREEMENTS <br /> The three agreements presented are related to the extension of: <br /> sewer service to the Piney Mountain Subdivision and are necessary to satisfy <br /> local planning/utility extension concerns, State high unit cost construction <br /> grant requirements and construction administration/short term construction: <br />
