Aj <br /> } <br /> SYNOPSIS <br /> The purpose of the study is to cite several community development needs in <br /> Orange County and to provide a priority listing of potential target areas for <br /> a Community Development Program. <br /> The study involved an updating of a "Housing and Community Development Study" <br /> conducted by the Orange County Community Development Department in September <br /> 1982. It included a detailed windshield survey of potential target areas in <br /> the townships. Additionally, 1980 Census of Population and Housing data were <br /> used to obtain information on the County and the townships. <br /> The Townships in Orange County were observed as a result of the survey. These <br /> townships are as follows: <br /> 1) Bingham <br /> 2) Cedar Grove <br /> 3) Chapel Hill <br /> 4) Cheeks <br /> 5) Eno <br /> 6) Hillsborough <br /> 7) Little River' <br /> A detailed windshield study was done on each target area and a priority listing <br /> of target areas was made according to the magnitude of the community development <br /> needs. These target areas are listed as follows: <br /> 1) Rencher Street Area <br /> 2) Cheeks/Miles <br /> 3) Rogers Road <br /> 4) Efland B <br /> 5) Efland C <br /> 6) Efland A <br /> 7) Colonial Hills <br /> 8) Byrdsville <br /> Rencher Street Area which is located in Hillsborough Township is first on the <br /> list because of the magnitude of its community development needs (i.e. trash <br /> dumping, inadequate bathroom facilities, poor road and housing conditions). <br />
