PURPOSE: To discuss the extraterritorial jurisdiction (ETJ) expansion process near the
Historic Rogers Road Community.
BACKGROUND: Please see the following link regarding action by the Orange County Board of
Commissioners on September 5, 2013: http:// orangecountync .gov /occlerks /130905.pdf
Orange County has sent a letter to Chapel Hill acknowledging the Town's interest to expand its
ETJ. Orange County will await actions by the Chapel Hill Town Council, with a general
understanding that action will be necessary early next year.
Below is a summary of the Chapel Hill and Orange County timeline:
• Chapel Hill has conducted a Public Hearing on October 21, 2013- a mailing has been
sent to all property owners as well as legal ads were published on October 6 & 13, 2013.
• Chapel Hill staff anticipates returning to the Town Council on January 13, 2014 for action
and then the request will be sent to the County for approval. Orange County will put a
placeholder on the Board of Commissioners agenda calendar after that date.
• Chapel Hill is discussing scheduling a Public Hearing on the rezoning on the January 13,
2014 date as well, but the specifics are not yet available. Chapel Hill would need to
pursue review by the Town Planning Board for its recommendation in December and get
an additional mailing and legal notices published.
FINANCIAL IMPACT: None at this time. The ETJ could provide the opportunity for Chapel Hill
to fund improvements to Rogers Road, but does not increase any revenues for that purpose.
RECOMMENDATION(S): The Managers recommend that the Boards discuss this topic and
provide any comments and /or direction to staff as necessary.
