Opportunities to Help Shape the New Orange County Comprehensive Plan
Do you live, work or own land in Orange County? Are you concerned about whether you and your children can find work here and afford a home? Do you want farmland and natural areas to be protected? Do you want to see our communities doing something to address climate change?
If so, you are invited to come and express your views at the upcoming Orange County meeting on May 19th:
Public Hearing - Monday, May 19 at 7:30 p.m. at the Gordon Battle Courtroom, 106 E. Margaret Lane, Hillsborough
This meeting is taking place because Orange County is in the process of updating its Comprehensive Plan. The Comprehensive Plan update will direct how Orange County will develop through the year 2030. It guides decisions for a wide range of local issues: housing, economic development, transportation, land use, environment, parks & recreation, and community services & utilities.
Making public comments is easy and can be done in several ways.
* You can submit written and/or verbal comments
* You can email comments to County staff at CompPlanUpdate@co.orange.nc.us.
* You can call county staff with your comments at (919) 245-2575, or you can mail written comments to the Orange County Department of Planning and Inspections, 306-F Revere Road, PO Box 8181, Hillsborough, NC 27278. Please submit comments before May 19th.
For more information on the planning process or to read the first draft of the plan, visit the Orange County Comprehensive Plan website: http://www.co.orange.nc.us/planning/compre_cpupdate.asp.
There will be a 2nd draft available on May 7th.
