C.27674 <br /> Spence and Lyn Dickinson <br /> Heartwood April 11, 1986 <br /> Rt 8 Box 92K <br /> Chapel Hill, N.C. 27514 <br /> Eddie Kirk <br /> Orange County Planning Department <br /> Hillsborough, N.C. 27278 <br /> RE: Special Use Permit Heartwood at Blackwood Mountain <br /> Dear Eddie, <br /> We are pleasedto submit this narrative in support of our application for a PD-HR1 <br /> Special Use Permit for the development, HEARTWOOD at BLACKWOOD MOUNTAIN. <br /> For the past 14 years we have gained valuable experience owning <br /> and managing a family oriented apartment community in Chapel Hill. <br /> Also, we have spent 4 years owning and operating a dairy farm where <br /> we did extensive gardening and farming. At the dairy farm, we also <br /> set up a complete sawmill and provided an apprenticeship program for <br /> the student drop-outs from the Alamance County school system. In the <br /> last .3 years we have owned and managed the SUNRISE FARMERS MARKET, a <br /> produce and natural foods grocery store in this community. Orange. County <br /> was where our ancestors, the Thompsons, settled in 1752. Orange County <br /> is our home and has been for 16 years. Our family plans to stay and to <br /> contribute to the improvement and stability of this community as did <br /> our ancestors. <br /> HEARTWOOD is our commitment to preserve a respect for the land and its <br /> resources and to offer a place where a variety of activities and learning <br /> experiences can take place. A place where the values of the family farm <br /> can flourish, in spite of its decline as an economically viable lifestyle <br /> the the farm used to offer many Americans. HEARTWOOD will be a safe place <br /> where both adults and children can grow towards their fullest potential. <br /> Today's developments offer either high density complexes or elite and <br /> separate neighborhoods with large individual land holdings; neither of <br /> which foster a true sense of personal interaction nor cooperation, but <br /> rather promotes only a sense of separteness and fear of one's own <br /> neighbor. Through fostering a commitment, a feeling of personal respons- <br /> iblity, and encouraging community sharing HEARTWOOD will make a difference. <br /> There are many people who are in favor of a more balanced environment <br /> and want the opportunity to experience a more wholesome and fulfilling <br /> lifestyle. In view of today's hectic pace many people are looking for that <br />
