ORANGE COUNTY PLANNING DEPARTMENT <br />306F REVERE ROAD <br />HILLSBOROUGH, NORTH CAROLINA =7278 145 <br />On <br />MEMORANDUM <br />TO: Marvin Collins, Planning Director <br />FROM: Don Powell, Information Services Supervisor <br />SUBJECT: Cornwallis Hills House Number Assignments <br />DATE: June 1, 1990 <br />COPY: Mark Johnson <br />Mark Johnson's comments regarding the house number <br />assignments in Cornwallis Hills were well taken. Miriam <br />Colenan and I had discussed the feasibility of allowing the <br />subdivision residents to keep their pre - assigned addresses <br />because the numbers were in most cases so similar to the ones <br />we were assigning. Additionally, the roads are so twisted <br />that it was a judgment call at best to establish which <br />followed the north /south or the east /west axis. <br />This memo is to inform you that I have spoken to Mr. Johnson <br />by phone (May 31) and have agreed to his request to allow <br />homeowners in the original section of Cornwallis Hills to <br />retain their old address. we further agreed to assign new <br />street addresses applying the County's system to all new <br />construction within the subdivision, consistent with the two <br />new houses on Lafayette Drive mentioned in Mr. Johnson's <br />letter. <br />we are changing our computer files to reflect this change and <br />I will forward a copy of this memo to Mr. Johnson for his <br />official records, w�,ich he may use in his report to the <br />Cornwallis hills Homeowners Association. <br />As a personal aside, I would like to remark on the <br />trofessional manner in which Mr. Johnson presented his <br />comments, both orally to the Commissioners as well as his <br />letter to this department. His approach was forthright and <br />unimpassioned, his remarks well organized and logical, and <br />for his most gentlemanly delivery, he has my highest retard. <br />
