The road length and width are as follows: <br /> Road Name Length in Miles Number of Frontage Pavement/Right-of- <br /> Lots with Houses way Widths in Feet <br /> Claytor Drive 0.06 2 20/50 <br /> Saponi Drive 0.05 5 18/50 <br /> Total 0.11 7 N/A <br /> The Riverbend Subdivision is located in Hillsborough's Extraterritorial Jurisdiction (ETJ), <br /> northwest of Morelanda Drive and northeast of Tuscarora Drive (State Road 1705) (Attachment <br /> 1). While this single-family residential subdivision is within Hillsborough's planning jurisdiction, <br /> the subdivision and roadways were developed and approved subject to the County's zoning and <br /> subdivision regulations. There are no known violations associated with the subdivision. <br /> The Riverbend Subdivision was recorded on June 25, 1997 (Book 78/Page 117) (Attachment 2). <br /> Claytor Drive and Saponi Drive were designed to public road standards, but have been private <br /> roads in the interim. The roads were intended to become public roads when conditions met <br /> NCDOT maintenance responsibility and ownership criteria. <br /> Claytor Drive has a length of 0.06 miles and provides access for two fully developed lots. The <br /> road has a right-of-way width of 50 feet and a pavement width of 20 feet. The road serves as the <br /> connection between the north end of the subdivision, which branches onto the Saponi Drive cul- <br /> de-sac, with Tuscarora Drive to the west and Morelanda Drive to the southeast. <br /> Saponi Drive has a length of 0.05 miles and provides access to five fully developed lots. The road <br /> has a right-of-way width of 50 feet and a pavement width of 18 feet. <br />
