The road lengths and widths are as follows: <br /> Road Name Length in Number of Frontage Pavement and Right-of-Way <br /> Miles Lots with Houses Widths in Feet <br /> Red Maple Lane 0.05 0 27-ft B-B with 22-ft pavement <br /> 50-ft Right-of-Way <br /> Eno Ridge Drive 0.40 20 20-ft pavement, 50-ft Right-of Way <br /> Total 0.45 20 <br /> The Cates Landing Subdivision is located in Orange County along US 70E, southeast of Lawrence <br /> Road (State Road 1561/1709) and northwest of Palmers Grove Church Road (State Road 1562) <br /> (Attachment 1). This 20-lot single-family residential subdivision is within Orange County's <br /> planning jurisdiction, and the subdivision and roadways were developed and approved subject to <br /> the County's zoning and subdivision regulations. There are no known violations associated with <br /> the subdivision. <br /> The Cates Landing Subdivision was recorded on February 26, 2021 (Book 123/Page 35) <br /> (Attachment 2). Red Maple Lane and Eno Ridge Drive were designed to public road standards, <br /> but have been private roads in the interim. The roads were intended to become public roads <br /> when conditions met NCDOT maintenance responsibility and ownership criteria. <br /> Red Maple Lane has a length of 0.05 miles and does not provide access to any fully developed <br /> lots. Red Maple Lane has a right-of-way width of 50 feet and a pavement width of 20 feet. The <br /> road serves as the entrance to the subdivision off US 70E, and then forms a tee intersection with <br /> Eno Ridge Drive. <br />
