PURPOSE: To consider scheduling two Joint Planning public hearing dates
for 1993 .
BACKGROUND: The Joint Planning Agreement requires that Orange County, and
the Towns of Chapel Hill and Carrboro conduct a joint public hearing when
amendments to the JPA Land Use Plan and/or Map are proposed. Joint public
hearings are also required when changes to the Agreement or Zoning Map for
the Transition Areas are proposed.
In the past, two Joint Planning public hearings have been scheduled each
year, one in the Spring and one in the Fall. A public hearing calendar
provides staff as well as citizens the opportunity to develop work
programs and project applications in accord with established deadlines and
meeting dates.
Both the Towns of Chapel Hill and Carrboro have approved April 15, 1993
and October 14, 1993 for these public hearings. The hearings will be held
at 7: 30 p.m. at a location to be determined.
RECOMMENDATION(S) : The Chair recommends that the Board of Commissioners
approve April 15, 1993 and October 14, 1993 for Joint Planning public
hearings. Upon approval, the Staff will notify the Towns of Chapel Hill
and Carrboro, prepare a schedule of application deadlines, advertisement
and notification dates, review/decision dates and reserve a location for
the hearings.
