It also provides the opportunity to generate new <br /> intergovernmental planning tools for the growth area around Mebane in western <br /> Orange County and potentially with Durham for the Eno Economic Development Area <br /> on the eastern boundary. Objectives of this policy include: <br /> • Orange County will continue to partner with local municipalities to jointly share <br /> information about current development in areas of common interest on the <br /> edges of jurisdictional boundaries, or that may have an impact on the municipality. <br /> Develop formal courtesy review agreements where none currently exist. <br /> • Review established intergovernmental policy tools (Central Orange Coordinated <br /> Area Land Use Plan,Joint Planning Land Use Plan,Water and Sewer Management, <br /> Planning,and Boundary Agreement and Schools Adequate Public Facilities <br /> Ordinance) every 10 years to confirm that the plans are achieving the results <br /> intended and are continuing to provide relevant policy guidance. <br /> • Initiate an intergovernmental planning process with the City of Mebane to develop <br /> a coordinated plan for guiding growth and change in the long-range planning areas <br /> of the city. <br /> • Support private investments in water and sewer infrastructure located in the Eno <br /> Economic Development Area and coordinate with the City of Durham as needed. <br /> ORANGE COUNTY LAND USE PLAN 2050 71 <br />
