These two lots are adjacent and are on the south side of Hwy 70. Rigsbee read from her prepared review as shown in the agenda, There were no additional comments. ITEM #4: Daniel and Barbara Wagner came before the Board to complain of problems on Rex Dr. where they live. Rigsbee stated that the area is in the extraterritorial zoning jurisdiction but is not within the corporate limits so only the provisions of the Zoning Ordinance would apply. The Wagners said that there was junk everywhere and that it attracts rats. They said that there was an illegal school bus on the lot that has had a shed built around it. There is an addition on the back of the second trailer at the mobile home park and it was said that this could not be occupied but at the present time two families are living in it. Also Herbert Keeter did not underpin his double wide mobile home. Also, Bob Caddell has junk cars on his lot and there is other junk around. Also, there is junk and trash on the Kennedy rental lot and on the Freeland vacant lot. Mr. Wagner has gone to the county and is trying to get an anti - junk ordinance. The county did bring a dump truck out for the residents to use one Saturday but there is still junk around. Davis agreed that rats were a problem throughout Town. Rose suggested that a letter be written to the Town Board, that Don Powell, Orange County Planning, and Tony Laws, Orange County i ITEM #5B ITEM #5A: APRIL 7, 1988 Page 2 Health,:'be contacted. The Board's consensus was that this matter should go before the Town Board in the form of a letter drafted by the Planning Board. Rigsbee explained the clarification and minor revisions that she had written for section 5.11 (Stream Buffers) which was included in the agenda. Rose explained that the floodway shown on the prepared map is that area in which there is fast movement of water during a 100 year storm and that the floodplain as shown on the map is the area that becomes flooded during a 100 year storm. Page asked if the floodplain is shown on the survey or deed when a lot is purchased. Hogue (a local attorney) said that if there is a loan involved, that the bank will require floodplain certifi- cation but if the land is purchased with cash that it could be missed. Hogue who said that his house is easily within 50 feet of the floodway said that if the floodway is filled in,that the stream will not rise. He suggested that the Board consider that the roots of the vegetation can't be disturbed which would allow for taming of the area or require that a ground cover be installed. He asked for the Board to consider that the buffer be added to the river rather than to the edge of the floodplain. Murphy asked if the horse barn built by James J. Freeland and which is located in the floodplain had received a permit. Rigsbee said no that a Stop Work Order had been placed on it but no further action had been taken. Murphy suggested that an expert opinion be sought and Ed Holland from Triangle J was agreed upon. Rose said that it seemed that a normal buffer is located in the floodplain area or is a small buffer. He said that in Carrboro the buffer is 60' from the floodway and that in Durham building is allowed in the floodplain if the Flood Plain Ordiannce is met. Page moved to ask for Ed Holland's advise on the stream buffer. Evans seconded. Unanimous. Rigsbee reviewed the notification requirement changes as shown in the agenda. The Board had no questions. ITEM #5C: Rigsbee stated that she did not know the wishes of the Board as to how to rewrite the Underground Utilites section of the ordinance. Rose said that he will meet with Steve: Cruise from Duke Power and perhaps this could go to the July Public Hearing. D. Cates will get Durham's ordinance regarding utilities. ADDITION: Page described the Hillsborough Commercenter and Kaye Products for the Board. n _ is ` _ Zrane.'t V i iAsbee, 15;ecr6fayV
