ORANGE COUNTY SEEKS APPLICANTS FOR CHAPEL HILL PLANNING BOARD

FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE

ORANGE COUNTY, NC (May 16, 2014)— One major way citizens can have a positive impact on the future of Orange County is to volunteer to serve on the various advisory boards and commissions.

The Board of County Commissioners appoints citizens to fill two positions on the CHAPEL HILL PLANNING BOARD. These positions represent the Extraterritorial Jurisdiction (ETJ) and the Joint Planning Area (JPA) of Chapel Hill. For the current opening, applicants must reside in the Joint Planning Area. The position will be open for appointment after June.

The Chapel Hill Planning Board develops a comprehensive plan for the orderly growth and development of Chapel Hill. It reviews all plans for buildings, projects and facilities to be located within the Town’s jurisdiction. It also formulates and recommends the adoption and amendment of ordinances.

If interested, apply online at www.orangecountync.gov/boards.

If you need to verify if your residence is located in the Joint Planning Area, please contact Thom Freeman at (919) 245-2125.

Orange County strives for diversity on volunteer advisory boards. Minorities are encouraged to apply. Volunteers appointed by the Board of County Commissioners have an opportunity to influence the way of life in Orange County.
