under EHC to build 4 houses in each “subdivision” but ran into an issue the corner lots need to have 2 street yards in a UDO revision; they went to the Board of Adjustment and the neighborhood opposed them and won. Had they won, the depth of street yards
on the street would have be reset to a new narrower standard. Now they have gone back to the Planning Department since SCAD will possibly enable them to do anything they want to with the yards. So all is confusion but likely the kind of mess we will see
more of. It’s around the corner from the woman whose driveway was flooded by the bad actions of the developer of the adjacent lot. </span></p>

Mangum and Roxboro are slated for re-paving in next couple years, and the re-striping would would be an opportunity to make them two-way. Residents on Duke and Vickers south of the freeway are vehemently against making these streets two-way. Mimi will
publish when the meetings are happening.</span></p>
