Explanation:

                     On November 17, 2021, the Council of the Town of Chapel Hill authorized the Manager to sign the final recombination plat for the Greene Tract on behalf of property owner Town of Chapel Hill. The plat was subsequently executed by the Town.

                     Recently staff and attorneys from the Town of Chapel Hill, Town of Carrboro, and Orange County agreed that the recombination plat inadvertently omitted a deed reference to an existing public right of way from Merin Road to Mortimer Circle.

                     Correction of the plat to include a reference to the right of way is necessary to remove a barrier for an adjacent property owner to convey their property.  

                     The Plat of Correction has been prepared and is ready for execution by the three jurisdictions. A copy is attached to this agenda item.

                     If Council approves the present resolution, the Town Manager will be authorized to execute the Plat of Correction on behalf of the Town.

                     The Towns of Carrboro and Orange County have submitted a similar resolution for approval by their governing boards.

 

 

Recommendation:

 

That the Council authorize the Town Manager to execute the Deed of Correction for the Greene Tract Recombination Plat originally approved on November 17, 2021.
