• <br /> • - <br /> • <br /> Mr. Marvin Hoffman, County Manager : <br /> March 25, 1986 <br /> Page 2 - • <br /> • <br /> requirements l raised by citizens and our two Chairmen let me <br /> mention three possible options. to consider. <br /> 1. Adopt existing line defined by the North Carolina <br /> Department of Transportation as separating the two <br /> counties. While this would satisfy property owners <br /> who have come to rely on this map and the erected <br /> DOIT signs it would pose the problem of cutting, into <br /> the Meadows on the far east and displace two <br /> residences located in Wolf's Pond. <br /> 2. Adopt a combination of the green (Durham to <br /> intersecting point) and red lines tersecting • <br /> point to the Haw River) shown in attached map. We <br /> talked about adopting each one of these lines <br /> formerly. By instead going with a combination of <br /> the two we would avoid interfering with the Meadows <br /> on the East and only displace two residences <br /> located in Wolf's Pond. <br /> 3 . Adopt a combination of the green (Durham to <br /> intersecting point)" and orange (intersecting point <br /> to Haw River) lines shown on attached map. This <br /> would be the same as above except that all of <br /> Wolf' s Pond residences would remain in Orange <br /> County. To accomplish this a slightly greater <br /> amount of land would be part of Orange County' s <br /> territory at the middle of the County whereas on <br /> the west there would be a greater amount of land as <br /> part of Chatham County' s territory. The effect <br /> would be one of equity. <br /> Let me know your thoughts on these and any further <br /> options you would care to explore. It is in both counties <br /> interest to keep working toward a solution before further <br /> land development- occurs within the area. <br /> Sincerely, <br /> Kenneth R. Thompson <br /> County Manager <br /> KRT/srs <br /> bcc: Board Members <br /> 0 <br />
