NCDOT Petition Information for Crabapple Lane Craig Benedict, 245-2585 <br /> PURPOSE: To make a recommendation to the North Carolina Department of <br /> Transportation (NCDOT), and the North Carolina Board of Transportation (NC BOT), <br /> concerning a petition to add Crabapple Lane in Birchwood Lake Estates Subdivision to the <br /> State Maintained Secondary Road System. <br /> BACKGROUND: This request includes one (1) petition for one (1) road addition to the <br /> State Maintained Secondary Road System. The road and its respective length and width <br /> are as follows: <br /> Road Name Length in Miles Pavement/Right-of-way <br /> Widths in Feet <br /> Crabapple Lane 0.06 20/60 <br /> Birchwood Lake Estates Subdivision <br /> Four (4) platted lots for single-family residential use currently are developed and take their <br /> access from Crabapple Lane. There are no undeveloped lots with frontage along <br /> Crabapple Lane. Crabapple Lane is situated west of Mimosa Drive, north of Whitfield Road <br /> (Attachment 1). <br /> Birchwood Lake Estates Subdivision is a major subdivision originally approved in 1974 in <br /> the Chapel Hill Township. There were multiple phases to the project and, as a result, <br /> multiple final plats. In 1979 a final plat was recorded revising the right-of-way for the <br /> subdivision; however this revision did not affect Crabapple Lane. Phase 2 of the <br /> subdivision which created Crabapple Lane was recorded with the Orange County Register <br /> of Deeds on September 10, 1974 (Attachment 2). <br />
