Considerations:

• Rapidly expanding area with addition of Fiori Hills and Daniel Boone Village adding a potential 2000 voters
• Alleviate traffic from downtown Hillsborough
• Churton Grove neighborhood is currently split between two precincts; will allow the neighborhood to be in one precinct
• Town of Hillsborough municipal lines will be removed from Cameron Park precinct, resulting in one less open precinct in municipal elections
• Allows for the tweaking of existing, surrounding precinct lines to keep neighborhoods contiguous
• Precinct lines will no longer cut through homes and determining domicile for voting purposes will be more efficient
