The County should include in any Plan information regarding inspection and repair the dam at Lake Orange to ensure the safety of residents down stream and to ensure the continued impoundment of water necessary to preserve recreation rights, the continued release of water and an Emergency Source of Water. 12. Finally, any Plan adopted by the County should have as its paramount goal the protection and enhancement of the rights and privileges of its citizens who currently reside in the county, as well as responsible stewardship and protection of the environment, while simultaneously developing a plan for future growth that engages its citizens in a process of proactive participation and synergistic partnership. That is a goal citizens may be willing to agree to without the need for policing through the enactment of additional regulations. It is only through the real process of involving those you. govern, that government can be truly effective. M. Lynette Hartsell Laurie J. Fuchs 1010 Lakeview Dr. Cedar Grove, NC 7329 Apple Mill Rd.
