What's on this agenda

This agenda called for Chapel Hill's Board of Adjustment to finalize a written order granting an after-the-fact dimensional variance for 105 Timberlyne Court. The board held an evidentiary hearing on the variance September 4 and voted 5-1 to grant it; this meeting was to formalize that decision in writing. The agenda also called for the board to elect a chair and vice chair for one-year terms and approve its September 4 minutes. No minutes have been published for this meeting, so what the board actually did is not yet confirmed here.
