PURPOSE: To consider a petition to add Rosebriar Road, in Phase 2 - Fox Hill Farm East
subdivision, to the state - maintained Secondary Road System.
BACKGROUND: The developer of Fox Hill Farm East has petitioned the North Carolina
Department of Transportation ( NCDOT) to accept maintenance responsibilities for Rosebriar Place
(4 homes). Fox Hill Farm East Phase 2 is located on the east side of New Sharon Church Road,
Eno Township. The Board approved the preliminary plat for Fox Hill Farm - East Phase 2 Section
A & B on June 6, 2000, stipulating in its resolution of approval that "Country Air Lane, Butterfly
Place, Fernleaf Place, Rosebriar Place and Highbranch Way shall be irrevocably dedicated to the
general public and be constructed to the standards of the North Carolina Department of
Transportation ", that Orange County accept the dedication to the general public (of the rights -of-
way for those roads) without maintenance responsibility, and that the owner /applicant maintain
those roads "until such time as they are accepted for maintenance by the North Carolina
Department of Transportation or some other governmental body." The Board, in June 2005,
approved the developer's petition to add other roads in the subdivision (Country Air Lane, Butterfly
Place, Fernleaf Place, North Highbranch Way and South Highbranch Way) to the State Secondary
Road Maintenance Program. The developer did not include Rosebriar Place in the previous
petition because, at that time, Rosebriar Place lacked the required density of occupied homes to
meet the NCDOT requirements for public road maintenance..
NCDOT has investigated the request (please refer to attached Secondary Road Addition Report),
and has submitted the petition to the Board of Commissioners for its review and approval. The
Board must take an administrative action to approve the petition to NCDOT in order for NCDOT to
add Rosebriar Place to the State Secondary Road System, and accept maintenance
responsibilities.
FINANCIAL IMPACT: There is no direct financial impact associated with this item.

RECOMMENDATION(S): The Manager recommends that the Board approve the request to add
Rosebriar Place to the State Secondary Road Maintenance Program.
