Dear Friends and Neighbors:
On Tuesday, November 16, the University will hold a public meeting to explain the permitting process required by the U.S. Army Corps of Engineers (ACOE) prior to development at Carolina North. The meeting will take place from 5:15-6:30 p.m. in the large conference room of the Chapel Hill Public Library.
Many of you have followed the planning for Carolina North. On July 1, 2009 the University entered into a Development Agreement with the Town of Chapel Hill that outlines the first 20 years of development at Carolina North.
Another part of the process for development is application to the ACOE for an “Individual Permit”. The ACOE Individual Permit application addresses impacts to streams and wetlands by development at Carolina North. The University held an initial meeting on the ACOE permit in June. On November 16 we will present the draft application for the permit. The University expects to submit a permit application to the ACOE later this year. You can view an electronic version of the draft permit application at http://cn.unc.edu.
This meeting is not part of the ACOE’s permitting requirements but is an opportunity for UNC to share information and to receive comments on the draft application. In addition to University staff, a representative from the ACOE will attend the meeting to explain the permitting process and how the public may participate. Attendees will be invited to ask questions and share comments.
As always, feel free to contact me with any questions or comments. If your questions pertain to the details of the permit or permitting process, please contact Jill Coleman, Facilities Planning, at jcoleman@fac.unc.edu or 919-843-3246.
If you are a community group or neighborhood representative, please forward this email to your members and others who may be interested.
Best,
Linda
