The road and its respective length and width are as <br /> follows: <br /> Road Name Length in Miles Number of Frontage Pavement/Right-of-way <br /> Lots with Houses Widths in Feet <br /> Founders Ridge Drive 0.24 10 22/45 <br /> Chancellors View Subdivision <br /> Chancellors View Subdivision is located off US 15/501 in the southeast part of the County, south <br /> of NC 54 and west of Old Lystra Road, in Chapel Hill Township (Attachment 1). The major <br /> cluster subdivision was originally approved on October 11, 2004. The subdivision was not <br /> annexed by Chapel Hill but is located within the Town's Extraterritorial Zoning Jurisdiction (ETJ), <br /> and was developed and approved subject to the Town's zoning and subdivision regulations. <br /> Communications with Chapel Hill Planning staff indicate that there are no known subdivision <br /> violations. <br /> The final plat for the subdivision was recorded on September 15, 2006 (Attachment 2). <br /> Founders Ridge Drive was designed to public road standards, but has been a private road in the <br /> interim, intended to become a public road when conditions met NCDOT maintenance <br /> responsibility and ownership criteria. <br />
