<br /> 32 PLANNING LAND USE PLAN(JPLUP),THE ORANGE COUNTY COMPREHENSIVE FUTURE LAND USE MAP
<br /> 33 (FLUM),AND THE ORANGE COUNTY ZONING ATLAS- To review and make a recommendation to the

<br /> 47 Applicant Gordon Brown, Chapel Hill attorney representing Mt. Carmel Baptist Church, gave brief comments about the
<br /> 48 history of the church property. The property, before 1777 was considered Orange County. Then it was changed to
<br /> 49 Chatham County. Two hundred forty-four years later it changed back to Orange County but was unzoned at that time. It
<br /> 50 has been difficult at times to do everyday projects or building projects and deal with two jurisdictions. The property is
<br /> 51 4.66 acres and has been in continuous church use. There will be no change to the regular use of the church.
<br /> 52
<br /> 53 Charity Kirk: I'm just curious why you are trying to get into Orange County rather than Chatham County, because it
<br /> 54 seems like the zoning is easier in Chatham.
