BACKGROUND: The Town of Mebane had developed a proposed change in its extraterritorial jurisdiction boundary that would redefine the extraterritorial Jurisdiction boundary to follow pro- perty lines. At present, the boundary cuts through properties, dividing them between the Town of Mebane and Orange County with regard to zoning, subdivision, and building inspection responsibilities. The proposed change would affect 23 property owners. All or a portion of six (6) parcels would shift from Orange County 's Jurisdiction to that of Mebane, while all or a portion of 17 parcels would shift from Mebane' s Jurisdiction to that of Orange County. ( See attached list. ) The Town of Mebane presented the proposal at a public hearing on May 4, 1987 . It is scheduled for Town Council consideration on May 18, 1987 . The Orange County Board of Commissioners must concur with and authorize the extra- territorial Jurisdiction change before it can take effect in Orange County. The Town of Mebane will contact Orange County with such a request. In addition to authorizing any change in Mebane's Jurisdiction, the Commissioners must apply Orange County 's jurisdiction into areas where Mebane' s existing Jurisdiction is being revised. A public hearing ( at a later date) will be required to receive citizen comment on the proposal .
