Since the adoption of the House Numbering <br /> Ordinance by the Board of Commissioners on April 21 , 1987 , <br /> three Chapel Hill rural routes, 2, 5 and 8, have been <br /> converted to street number addresses. <br /> Rougemont Rural Routes 2 and 3 have now been prepared for <br /> the next conversion to house numbers. These two routes are <br /> located in Little River Township in northeastern Orange <br /> County and include the community of Caldwell and portions of <br /> Highways 57 and 157 and Guess Road. The area is bounded <br /> generally by the following roads: Kiger, New Sharon Church, <br /> Bill Poole, McBroom, Bunny, Sawyer, Hall Dairy, Holly Ridge, <br /> Brown, Breeze, Mary Hall , and Blalock . <br /> General Statute 153A-240 requires that a public hearing be <br /> held on the proposed house and building numbers to be <br /> assigned . Notices have been sent to all affected residents <br /> and posted in the Courthouse and in at least two public <br /> places in Little River Township ( Caldwell Store and <br /> Rougemont Post Office) . <br /> A Planning Board recommendation is not required on the <br /> proposed house and building numbers, and the Commissioners <br />
