Carrboro Aldermen will consider extending the deadline for a pair of previously approved developments when the board meets Tuesday.
The Butler is a commercial and residential project planned for 120 Brewer Lane. It was approved in 2008, but developers are asking for an extension of the Condition Use Permit while they negotiate with Orange County on the location of a new branch library.
The Shoppes at Jones Ferry was approved in 2007. Developers for that project want to bring retail and possible a grocery store to Jones Ferry Road near Barnes Street, but say the economic downturn has made it hard to move forward.
If the board grants the extensions, the Conditional Use Permits would be valid for another year.
Aldermen will also receive an update on the public forum on community policing held last month.
The meeting gets underway at 7:30 in Carrboro Town Hall. You can read the full agenda here.
