Subject: Haw River Christian Academy – PBO Added Stipulations

The Town of Pittsboro has ADDED a very long and costly list of stipulations to the special use permit granted to the Haw River Christian Academy AFTER the town board voted to approve.

None of these stipulations were part of the public hearings leading up to the approval of the special use permit.

It is a lengthy list, they also seem well out of the range of normal stipulations for any business permit, special use or otherwise, they seem very very unusual.

The HRCA will need to determine if they can live with them, but…

1)  Is it legal to add all of these on AFTER the permit has been approved by the Town Board?  And not part of the quasi-judicial hearing/approval process?

2) Who developed this list of additional stipulations?  And who sent this to the Town’s lawyer to be added on?

I don’t know the answer to these questions, if someone does know, please post..
