This elinunates the need for the future connector to that property through_The <br />Woodlands. This will also calm the fears that adjoining praperry owners have that traffic other than <br />that generated in The Wood]ands would be using Nine Gates Road as a short-cut to Jones Ferry <br />Road I would lie to formally request that the stub~ut requirement be dropped from the <br />Preliminary Approval conditions. <br />Jn regard to the Left Turn Lane, I truly am dividedmyself - as I stated to the Planning Board, I <br />would like to have that margin of safety for the future Woodlands homeowners but, at the same time, <br />I do not want to be caught between the County saying, "build it", and adjoining property owners <br />telling me I am facing a court battle to obtain needed construction easements. I have talked with <br />Mike Venable, NCDOT, about the possibility of less invasive road shoulder and ditchline widths that <br />DOT would find acceptable and intend to meet with Mr. O'Daniel next week to see if he would be <br />willing to compromise if I also offer to build a new driveway for him to access Nine Gates. <br />With regards, <br />Kim Henry, presi~t. <br />Builders' Ma>rlceting Group, Inc, <br />cc; Robert Davis, Tina Moon <br />
