Whether the need for the project has been satisfactorily established by the agency or unit of <br />government involved, including a review of any fiscal impact analysis conducted by the agency <br />involved; and <br />b. Alternatives to the proposed action that have less impact and are less disruptive to the agricultural <br />activities and farm land base of the voluntary agricultural district within which the proposed action <br />is to take place. <br />The Board will consult with the Orange County Cooperative Extension Service, the local U.S.D.A. Seib <br />?Natural Resources Conservation Service office, and the Orange County Environment and Resource Conservation Department, and may consult with any other inPlaming <br />dividuals, <br />agencies or organizations, public or private, necessary to the Board's review of the proposed action. <br />Within 30 days after the request for public hearing, the Board will make a report to the decision-making <br />body ofl the proposed condemnor, which report shall contain the Board's findings and recommendations <br />regarding the proposed action. <br />to N.C.
