S. 153A-240 <br /> Location Map <br /> Notification Letter <br /> TELEPHONE NUMBERS : <br /> Hillsborough - 732-8181 <br /> Durham - 688-7331 <br /> Mebane - 227-2031 <br /> Chapel Hill - 968-4501 <br /> PURPOSE: To receive citizen comment on proposed house and building <br /> numbers to be assigned in two rural routes in the County. . <br /> BACKGROUND : Per an agreement reached in January 1987 between the County <br /> Manager and the Chapel Hill Postmaster, a joint project was <br /> undertaken between the County and Postal Service to begin the <br /> conversion of rural box numbers to a system of permanently <br /> assigned house numbers. Once the actual assignments are made, <br /> no further changes in numbering should be necessary . <br /> Two rural routes have thus far been been assigned numbers <br /> according to a proposed system developed by the County . The <br /> include Route 8 ( area north of Chapel Hill consisting of <br /> Stoneridge and Sedgefield subdivisions, and homes bordering <br /> Old N.G. 86, Mill House Road and Whitfield Road) and Route 5 <br /> (area west of Carrboro off Jones ferry Road ) . Thereafter, <br /> others will be done in phases. <br /> General Statute 153A-240 requires that a public hearing be <br /> held on the proposed house and building numbers to be assigned. <br /> Notices have been sent to all affected residents, and posted <br /> in the Courthouse in at least two public places in Chapel Hill <br /> Township ( Estes Drive and Franklin Street Post Offices, Cedar <br /> Creek Store, and Willow Creek Shopping Center ) . <br /> A Planning Board recommendation is not required on the proposed <br /> house and building numbers, and the Commissioners may approve <br /> the assigned numbers following the conclusion of the hearing. <br /> RECOMMENDATION: Approval of the proposed house and building numbers for rural <br /> routes 5 and 8, followed by notification of the Chapel Hill <br /> Postmaster, the N.C. Department of Transportation, and the <br /> Towns of Chapel Hill and Carrboro as required by G. S. 153A-240 . <br />
