Benedict, ext. 2592 <br /> (dated 6/6/02) <br /> Correspondence to Susan Osborn (dated 6/20/02) TELEPHONE NUMBERS: <br /> Correspondence to Orange County Manager& Hillsborough 732-8181 <br /> Orange County Board of Commissioners Chapel Hill 968-0501 <br /> (dated 6/19/02) Durham 688-7331 <br /> Mebane (336)227-2031 <br /> PURPOSE., To provide: <br /> 1. An update on the progress of the Churton Grove development, <br /> 2. A report on their annexation request to the Town of Hillsborough, and <br /> 3. Response to Churton Grove resident Ms. Osborn's inquiries. <br /> BACKGROUND: <br /> 1. UPDATE <br /> The Churton Grove project is a planned development of 410 single family and 216 multi- <br /> family units. Phase 1, 59 single-family and Phase 2A, 78 single-family, have completed <br /> their infrastructure and approximately 100 single-family homes have been built. <br /> 2. ANNEXATION <br /> The developer, Churton Grove, LLC, Patrick A. O'Neal, Manager, requested annexation of <br /> • Phase IIC — Commercial <br /> • Phase IIB — 216 Multi-family <br /> • Phase III & IV—273 Single-Family <br /> pursuant to his letter (see attachment 1)of June 4, 2002 to the Town Manager of <br /> Hillsborough. Phases I and IIA had previously been requested for annexation but were <br /> held in abeyance at that time. <br /> Condition 40 of the Class A Special Use Permit (SUP) states: <br /> "The applicant shall request annexation by the Town of Hillsborough for each phase of the <br /> development following the construction of required improvements." The County has found <br /> it prudent in the past, as well as with more current policy, that the project proceed through <br /> the development approval and construction process (rezoning, SUP, phased infrastructure, <br /> project timing, etc.) before annexation. However, the recent request was prior to the <br /> construction of any improvements. <br />
