Petition Letter & Secondary Road Addition Report for <br />Tanya Drive, Hyde-Away Forest Subdivision <br />INFORMATION CONTACT: <br />Karen Lincoln, ext, 2594 <br />TELEPHONE NUMBERS: <br />Hillsborough 732-8181 <br />Chapel Hill 968-4501 <br />Durham 688-7331 <br />Mebane (336)227-2031 <br />PURPOSE: To consider a petition to add Tanya Drive to the State-maintained Secondary Road <br />System. <br />BACKGROUND: Residents of Tanya Drive (7 homes) have petitioned the North Carolina <br />Department of Transportation (NCDOT) to accept maintenance responsibilities for the majority of <br />Tanya Drive. Tanya Drive is located in Hyde-Away Forest subdivision (recorded in July 1969) off <br />the east side of Mill Creek Road, Cheeks Township. The petition is far partial addition of Tanya <br />Drive, from Cherry Street (SR 1444) to the northern lot boundary of the corner lot at Tanya Drive <br />and Glenn Street (SR assignment pending), to the state maintained secondary road system. <br />NCDOT was not able to obtain right-of-way on Tanya Drive for that corner property. <br />NCDOT has investigated this request (please refer to attached Secondary Road Addition Report) <br />and has submitted the petition to the Board of Commissioners for its review and approval. The <br />Board must take an administrative action to approve the petition to NCDOT in order for NCDOT to <br />accept Tanya Drive into the State Maintenance Program. <br />FINANCIAL IMPACT: There is no direct financial impact associated with this decision item. <br />RECOMMENDATION(S): The Administration recommends that the Board approve the request to <br />add Tanya Drive to the State Secondary Road Maintenance Program. <br />
