He explained the purpose of the Public Hearing is to receive public comments on (1) the House Numbering Ordinance and (2) the proposed house/building numbers to be assigned in rural routes 5 and 8. Collins stated that because of the growth in the County, many rural box numbers have had to be changed several times. In January 1987 an agreement was reached between the County Manager and the Chapel Hill Postmaster whereby a joint project was undertaken to begin the conversion of rural box numbers to assigned house numbers. The Ordinance accomplishes two things: (1) Assigns house/building numbers, and (2) Provides a mechanism by which emergency vehicles will be able to identify where a person lives. • Collins stated that once the numbers are assigned they will be permanent and will not need to be changed again. The Ordinance identifies a means by which the numbers will be displayed. PUBLIC COMMENTS Roger Barra indicated his address has changed several times with the assurance that the change would be final and permanent. He stated that he received a letter indicating the proposed change had already been made and scheduled to begin tomorrow. He hopes that this will be the last time his address is changed.
