Easley, Governor James H. Gregson, Director William G, Ross Jr., Secretary December 18, 2007 The Honorable Rodman L. William, Mayor Town of Bridgeton PO Box 570 Bridgeton, NC 28519 Dear Mayor William: This letter is in regard to the town's request to extend the deadline for completion of the Town of Bridgeton's CAMA Workbook Land Use Plan. We are aware of the progress being made on the plan and the upcoming public input sessions. This letter serves as a formal approval for the requested extension. The MOU previously signed will now be effective until April 30, 2008. Also, enclosed you will find a land suitability map for the town. This analysis helps identify areas where higher intensity development should be encouraged and/or discouraged. It will be used when creating the town's future land use map. The criteria used for the map analysis and the weights of each of the criteria are outlined on a separate sheet and included with the map. The criteria and ratings are the default weights that DCM assigns for all communities. If you have any questions about the map, or how to use the map, please feel free to contact me at 252- 808-2808. I am happy to assist you with completion of this project. Thank you for your efforts to meet the CAMA requirements. Again, if we can be of any assistance, please do not hesitate to contact our office.
