map for the area of Harnett County south of the Cape Fear River.
Chairman Lloyd Stewart called the meeting to order and the county
manager, Dallas Pope explained the procedure and purpose of the
hearing. Planning Supervisor Carla Stephens, then, gave a short
briefing on the zoning process. She discussed the zoning
districts and the text of the zoning ordinance.
