Along with Public <br /> and Quasi-Public lands, it provides an important part <br /> of the Township's open space. <br /> Development Trends <br /> In reviewing development and construction patterns in Eno <br /> Township, two items become apparent; the extent to which <br /> growth in Durham influences growth patterns in the Township, <br /> and the impact of manufactured housing. Of the 241 newly <br /> subdivided lots created in Eno Township from 1980 to 1987, <br /> ninety-two were east of Pleasant Green Road/Schley Road, an <br /> area bordering Durham County and only representing slightly <br /> more than one-quarter of the Township's total area. At least <br /> one hundred additional lots were proposed within the area <br /> during that time, but had not been acted upon by the end of <br /> 1987. <br /> The Treyburn mixed use development project in northern Durham <br /> County has the potential to greatly accelerate subdivision <br /> and construction activity in Eno Township. The 5,200 acre <br /> project is expected to create between 20,000 and 40,000 new <br /> jobs and 4,000 housing units for a projected 12,600 new <br /> residents by the year 2005. If just 5% of the new housing <br /> demand created by Treyburn locates west of the project in <br /> Eno Township upwards of 550 new units would be built. This <br /> number, representing one-sixth of the projected increase in <br /> 3.10-9 <br />
