Seconded by Scott. <br /> VOTE: Unanimous . <br /> AGENDA ITEM #10: MATTERS HEARD AT PUBLIC HEARING MAY 24, 1993 <br /> a. Comprehensive Plan Amendment <br /> ( 1 ) CP-2-93 Louis and Joe Berini <br /> Presentation by David Stancil. <br /> The site consists of 11.9 acres of land in Eno <br /> Township currently used as the 44-unit Caroline <br /> Mobile Park. Louis and Joe Berini are the owners <br /> of the park, located along the Durham-Orange <br /> County line. <br /> The proposal requests reclassification of the <br /> property from Rural Residential to Twenty-Year <br /> Transition. The site lies at the end of Howe <br /> Street (SR 1589 ) , on the north side of I-85 at <br /> the Durham County line, adjacent to Eno River <br /> State Park. It is Tax Map 25 , lot 54 (part) . <br /> This amendment is a secondary amendment to the <br /> plan, as an extension of an existing Twenty-Year <br /> Transition area located south of the interstate. <br /> The applicants have recently acquired sewer <br /> service from the City of Durham for the mobile <br /> home park, which has a number of septic tanks <br /> that date over 20 years in use.

The site <br /> is also within the city's Urban Growth Area as <br /> designated on the Durham 2005 Comprehensive Plan. <br /> Designation of this site as Twenty-Year <br /> Transition would recognize the existence of sewer <br /> service as an indicator of transition to urban <br /> land uses, and could potentially allow for <br /> rezoning to higher residential densities in the <br />
