This letter will <br /> provide a brief summary and request for appointments to the task force. Due to a busy <br /> budget season, Chatham County staff recommended a late summer or early fall start <br /> date for the task force to commence meetings. The initial meeting will fine tune the task <br /> force charge at that time. <br /> If you have questions, please contact Perdita Holtz, Orange County Planning Systems <br /> Coordinator, by phone at (919) 245-2578 or by e-mail at pholtz @orangecountync.gov or <br /> Craig N.
