And so we are trying to prepare the appropriate places where there's good transportation <br /> access also. <br /> Chris Cole: Can I make one comment? Lisa... She raises the fact that there are not many opportunities to put a <br /> manufacturing facility in Orange County, and that's true. And I'd like to point out that businesses are aware of that <br /> too and sometimes they go out and pay a premium... 12 years ago, maybe, next to Euro Sport, someone <br /> purchased an option on land to put an asphalt plant next door to them. It cost the town of Hillsborough $300,000 to <br /> make them go away.They supposedly weren't allowed to do that there either. <br /> Craig Benedict:We're familiar with the lawsuit. <br /> Tony Blake: But that, I believe, was addressed in the zoning. There was a hole in the zoning that allowed that to <br /> happen. If my understanding... But I believe that's been closed since. <br /> Perdita Holtz continued presentation. <br /> MOTION [later in the evening, after all three related items had been presented] by Buddy Hartley to approve the <br /> Statement of Consistency.

The parcel is located immediately south of <br /> Interstate 40 and east of Old Highway 86. <br /> This item is scheduled for the September 12, 2016 quarterly public hearing. <br /> Presenter: Perdita Holtz, Planning Systems Coordinator <br /> Perdita Holtz presented. <br /> Nathan Robinson (member of the public): In terms of the recognition that's coming for those areas, they're existing <br /> residential now, they come down just south on Old 86; would there be a way to include the zoning that needs to be <br /> consistent with this action so that this process doesn't have to be repeated in the future? <br /> Perdita Holtz: There is not a way to include it at this time.And we've mentioned to you about the water and sewer <br /> boundary agreement that in order to be 10 year transition area the water and sewer boundary agreement would <br /> need to be revised, the County's land use plan would need to be revised, and then ultimately zoning would need to <br /> be applied.
