The Orange <br /> I County, Chapel Hill, Carrboro and OWASA staff representatives have been <br /> meeting periodically to review the planning process to be employed and <br /> discuss various elements of the work program. <br /> Work completed to date includes all base mapping associated with the <br /> project, collection and mapping of environmental data for Land Suitability <br /> Analysis, completion of a "pilot" project concerning computerized mapping' <br /> of environmental data, collection and mapping of existing land use data, <br /> and preparation of outline drafts of growth issue, location standards <br /> and population projections. <br /> The Town of Chapel Hill has initiated efforts to update it's Land Use Plan <br /> as part of the Joint Planning activities and has, also adopted a time schedule <br /> governing this process.
