560/ <br /> ORANGE COUNTY PLANNING DEPARTMENT <br /> 306F REVERE ROAD r <br /> HILLSBOROUGH, NORTH CAROLINA 27278 <br /> rt e"S <br /> May 5, 1989 <br /> Dear Property Owner: <br /> You have been sent the attached Notice of Public Hearing <br /> because you own property within 500' of property proposed to <br /> be rezoned to the PWII Protected Watershed Zoning Overlay <br /> and/or changed to the Resource Protection Area Designation in <br /> the Land Use Element of the Comprehensive Plan. A map also <br /> accompanies the notice so that you may see where the affected <br /> areas are located. <br /> The proposed changes to the Zoning Atlas and Land Use Element <br /> of the Comprehensive Plan will, not affect the minimum lot <br /> size or the uses permitted. They only extend the boundaries <br /> of the Protected Watershed Zoning . Overlay and/or Resource <br /> Protection Area Designation, in the Land Use Element of the <br /> Comprehensive Plan. Additional requirements of the PWII <br /> overlay include stream buffers and limitations on the amount <br /> of impervious surface. <br /> The area in question is at the corner of four (4) Townships <br /> (Bingham, Chapel Hill, Hillsborough, and Cheeks) . It was <br /> recently discovered by staff of the Planning Department that <br /> the Zoning Districts and Land Use Element of the <br /> Comprehensive Plan Designation boundaries do not connect <br /> properly between the four townships. <br /> The proposed changes will correct the discrepancies. <br /> Please call Mary Scearbo (extension 347) or David Stencil <br /> (extension 566) if you have any additional questions. <br /> • <br />
