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.
Sincerely,
laureen Meehan Will

As follow-up to your conversation with Commissioner Spano, we would like to formally
request an extension of our deadline to complete the update of our CAMA Land Use Plan
to April 1, 2008.
A workshop has been held with the Bridgeton Board of Commissioners and further ones
are being planned to incorporate the Town's vision and long-range plans into this update.
Also, please find enclosed a xerox copy of our Zoning Map. You will note that the map
has been amended several times for requested voluntary annexations and changes that
affect the map. The Division of Community Assistance is in the process of updating our
official map, which may include a pending annexation request that is currently in process
that involves an additional 185.113 acres, known as the Clyde Nelson, et. al tract of land.
Once the updated map is complete, we will send you a xerox copy of it.
Thank you for all your assistance and considering our deadline extension request to April
1, 2008.
