J^,',,',.£S B. HUNT JR. <br /> GOVERNOR <br /> <br />STATE OF NORTH CAROLINA <br />DEPARTMENT OF TRANSPORTATION <br /> DIVISION OF HIGHWAYS <br /> April 28, 1998 <br /> <br />E. NORRIS TOLSON <br /> SECRETARY <br /> <br />Property Owners on Edgefield Road <br /> <br />Subject: Paving SR 1190 (Edgefield Road) in Cabarrus CoUnty <br /> <br />Dear <br /> <br />The paving of SR 1190 (Edgefietd Road) in Cabarrus County is included in our paving <br />program for the Fiscal Year 1998-1999. This program has been approved by the Cabarrus <br />County Commission and is expected to be approved and funded by the N. C. Board of <br />Transportation in July 1998. We already have the right of way necessary to pave the road. <br /> <br />We have received a petition signed by several of the property owners requesting the road <br />not be paved. State law does not allow us to arbitrarily skip roads on our paving priority <br />Est. Due to the fact we already have the necessary right of way, we cannot use the <br />inability to acquire right of way as a reason not to pave it. <br /> <br />I have been advised that the only legal way we can skip paving the road is for the Cabarrus <br />County Commission to hold a public hearing and pass a resolution requesting the N. C. <br />Board of Transportation not pave the road. It must then be submitted to the N. C.. <br />Department of Transportation for their review. If the Board of Transportation approves <br />the request the road can be skipped and left unpaved. <br /> <br />Due to the above, and the fact it is expected to be funded in July, those who do not want <br />Edgefield Road paved should quickly contact the County Commission and request the <br />hearing. Those who do want the road paved should also contact the County Commission <br />so that everyone's views can be heard. <br /> <br />615 Concord Road, Albemarle.
