environment / Durham County / Chatham County Chatham peeved over Durham vote on Jordan Lake
Posted by Lisa Sorg @lisasorg on Tue, Dec 16, 2008 at 6:10 PM
Chatham County Commissioners are appealing to the state's Division of Water Quality to retain the current boundaries of Jordan Lake, according to an Indy story posted this evening.
The resolution comes after Durham County Commissioners voted to keep a developer's self-serving survey that would allow him to build a mega-project, the 751 Assemblage, near the lake, and outside the critical area subject to additional environmental regulations.
