Here are some of the highlights. 38 <br /> 39 <br />Carrboro’s Proposal for Light-Industrial Land Uses on Town-Owned Property at 7917 Old 40 <br />NC 86: 41 <br />As you know, the Carrboro Board of Aldermen (BoA) are planning to rezone and develop the 42 <br />Town owned property at 7917 Old NC 86 to light Industrial, as a solution for Carrboro 43 <br />businesses which find this type of space within the town limits too expensive or unavailable. It’s 44 <br />our understanding that on 2/6/2018 the BoA directed Town Planning Staff to contact the 45 <br />Commissioners / County staff to discuss this development and a possible joint rezoning public 46 <br />hearing. The NTAAC has not received any information since February and were hoping the 47 <br />Commissioners could update us on the status of this project. 48 <br /> 49
