2 <br /> Register of Deeds on June 22, 2008 (Attachment 2). The approval of this project also <br /> allowed for the dedication of additional right-of-way for Kerley Road along the subdivision <br /> frontage. The remainder of Carramore Lane is also being petitioned to be added to the <br /> State Maintained Secondary Road System in Durham County, and the two petitions are <br /> being coordinated by NCDOT. <br /> North Carolina General Statute §136-62 requires that road petitions for additions to the <br /> state system be made by the Board of County Commissioners (BOCC). NCDOT has <br /> investigated this request and has submitted a petition to the BOCC for its recommendation <br /> (Attachment 3). <br /> Conclusion <br /> The above-referenced application meets the criteria endorsed by the BOCC for <br /> recommending acceptance of public roads into the State Maintained System for roads <br /> approved through the governing jurisdiction's major subdivision process (NCDOT <br /> Subdivision Roads Minimum Construction Standards, January 2010). The application also <br /> complies with the Resolution of Approval adopted by the Board of County Commissioners <br /> (BOCC) in 2000. <br /> FINANCIAL IMPACT: There is no direct financial impact to the County associated with this <br /> item. NCDOT will incur additional maintenance responsibilities and costs. <br /> SOCIAL JUSTICE IMPACT: The following Orange County Social Justice Goal is <br /> associated with this item: <br /> GOAL: CREATE A SAFE COMMUNITY <br /> The reduction of risks from vehicle/traffic accidents, childhood and senior injuries, gang <br /> activity, substance abuse and domestic violence. <br /> The addition of county private residential streets to the State Maintained Secondary Road <br /> System results in positive outcomes related to the above goal. <br /> RECOMMENDATION(S): The Manager recommends the Board: <br /> 1. Forward the Petition for Addition to the State Maintained System to the North <br /> Carolina Department of Transportation for Carramore Lane in Carramore <br /> Subdivision; and <br /> 2. Recommend the Department of Transportation accept the road for maintenance as a <br /> State Secondary Road. <br />
