7 <br /> WALTER T . MCFALL, IV <br /> 5909 Orange Grove Road <br /> Hillsborough, North Carolina 27278 <br /> August 17, 1993 <br /> Orange County Planning Department <br /> 306F Revere Road <br /> Hillsborough, North Carolina 27278 <br /> Re : Comprehensive Plan Amendment CP-3-93 <br /> Submitted by Bobby Kirk, Sr. and Bobby Kirk, Jr. <br /> Dear Sirs/Madames : <br /> As the owner of Lot 12, Tax Map 11, Bingham Township, <br /> I strongly oppose the proposal of rezoning from Agricultural- <br /> Residential to Rural Neighborhood Activity Node . <br /> I understand that a zoning designation of Rural Neighborhood <br /> Activity Node allows commercial usage . Again, I strongly oppose <br /> the rezoning proposal . <br /> I have been informed that the parties submitting this <br /> proposal, Bobby Kirk, Sr . and Bobby Kirk, Jr . , plan to construct <br /> and operate a convenience/country store at the corner of Orange <br /> Grove Road and Bradshaw Quarry Road . This property is directly <br /> adjacent to my property, the property on which I reside . My <br /> reasons for opposition include : <br /> 1 . The possibility of gasoline run-off contaminating the <br /> water table . <br /> 2 . The -disturbance of peace, quiet and privacy in a <br /> country setting which I have become accustomed to for the last 10 <br /> years . <br /> 3 . The devaluation of my property. <br /> 4 . The increased risk of automobile accidents at an <br /> already accident prone intersection . <br /> As an owner of a convenience store, I personally know the <br /> comings and goings of traffic, noise, and unpredictable <br /> circumstances which are unavoidable due to the type of business <br /> being operated . I do not wish to live next door to a convenience <br /> store or any other type of commercial business . <br />
