BACKGROUND: Per an agreement reached in January, 1986 between the County Manager and the Chapel Hill Postmaster, a Joint project between the County and the Postal Service was undertaken to convert rural box numbers to permanently assigned house numbers. Two rural routes (5 and 8) have been converted to house numbers, and, since the adoption of the House Numbering Ordinance by the Board of County Commissioners on April 21 , 1987, residents have been utilizing assigned numbers as their addresses. Rural Route 2 has now been prepared for the next conversion to house numbers. The route encompasses an area north of Chapel Hill including Blackwood Station, a portion of N. C. Highway 86, Hideaway Estates Subdivision and portions of the following State roads: Mt. Sinai , University Station, Old N.C. 10, New Hope Church and Old N. C. 86. General Statute 153A-240 requires that a public hearing be held on the proposed house and building numbers to be assigned. Notices will be sent to all affected residents and posted in the Courthouse and in at least two public places in Chapel Hill Township ( Estes Drive and Franklin Street Post Offices and Sunrise Farmers Market on N. C. Highway 86) . RECOMMENDATION : Manager recommends approval of the proposed legal notice and method for notifying affected residents and bussinesses.
