The applicant has proposed to dedicate to orange <br />County a 50' strip of land adjacent to New Hope Creek <br />along the entire southern boundary of the subdivision. <br />A conservation easement which runs approximately <br />parallel to the 100 -year floodplain is being <br />negotiated with Triangle Land Conservancy. <br />The applicant has requested a one -year time extension <br />to obtain Final Plat approval by December 4, 1991. <br />Searle Farms will still be developed in one phase. Th <br />Planning Staff's findings regarding the request in <br />relation to Section III -D -2 -e of the Subdivision <br />Regulations are attached.
