16 <br /> Dear Property Owner: August 22, 2022 <br /> This notice is to inform you of an upcoming Public Hearing on September 6, 2022 to review an application to rezone a 2.32 acre parcel of property (PIN <br /> 9844-88-7024) at the northeast corner of Forrest Avenue and Efland Cedar Grove Road in Efland, NC (Cheeks Township); the property is undeveloped <br /> so it does not have an assigned address. This notification is occurring in accordance with the provisions of Section 2.8 Zoning Atlas and Unified <br /> Development Ordinance Amendments of the Orange County Unified Development Ordinance (UDO). You are receiving this notice because you own <br /> property located within 1,000-feet of the 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 /> The Orange County Board of County Commissioners will hold a public hearing on the proposed rezoning on September 6, 2022 at 7:00 p.m. in the <br /> meeting room on the second floor of the Whitted Building located at 300 West Tryon Street, Hillsborough, NC. <br /> The Orange County Planning Board, an advisory board comprised of appointed volunteers, reviewed this application at its June 1, 2022 regular meeting <br /> and voted to recommend approval of the rezoning request. <br /> Additional information is available on the Orange County Planning Department's website: https://www.orangecountync.gov/1722/Current-Interest-Projects <br /> If you cannot attend the Public Hearing and the website does not answer your questions about the requested rezoning, you may call (919) 245-2575 <br /> during regular business hours and you will be directed to a staff person who can assist you. You may also submit written comments via email to <br /> ocbocc@orangecountync.gov (emails sent to this address are considered public records and are subject to public disclosure). <br />
