Dear Property Owner: May 17, 2022 21 <br /> This notice is to inform you of an upcoming Planning Board meeting to review an application to rezone a 2.32 acre parcel of property at the northeast <br /> corner of Forrest Avenue and Efland Cedar Grove Road in Efland, NC (Cheeks Township); the property is undeveloped so it does not have an assigned <br /> address. This notification is occurring in accordance with the provisions of Section 2.8 Zoning Atlas and Unified Development Ordinance Amendments of <br /> the Orange County Unified Development Ordinance (UDO). You are receiving this notice because you own property located within 1,000-feet of <br /> parcel requested for rezoning. <br /> YOUR PROPERTY IS NOT PROPOSED FOR REZONING. <br /> The property requested for rezoning is currently zoned R-1 (Rural Residential). The applicant has requested the property be rezoned to 1-2 (Medium <br /> Industrial). Three zoning overlay districts also apply to this parcel: Major Transportation Corridor (MTC) Overlay District. Efland Village Overlay District, <br /> and Upper Eno Protected Watershed Overlay District; no changes to the overlay districts are being proposed. <br /> Additional information is available on the Orange County Planning Department's website: https://www.orangecountync.gov/1722/Current-Interest-Projects <br /> The Orange County Planning Board, an advisory board comprised of appointed volunteers, is scheduled to review this application and make a <br /> recommendation to the Board of County Commissioners at the June 1, 2022 Planning Board meeting. The meeting begins at 7:00 p.m. and will be held <br /> in the Lower Level (basement) Conference Room of the West Campus Office Building at 131 W. Margaret Lane in Hillsborough, North Carolina. <br /> Interested persons are invited to address the Planning Board with their comments regarding the rezoning application. <br /> A formal public hearing on the proposed amendments will be held by the Board of County Commissioners. At this time, the anticipated date for the public <br /> hearing is September 6, 2022. You will receive another written notice about the public hearing closer to the hearing date. <br /> If you cannot attend the Planning Board meeting and the website does not answer your questions about the requested rezoning, you may call (919) 245- <br /> 2575 during regular business hours and you will be directed to a staff person who can assist you. <br />
