closePITTSBORO -- The Pittsboro Town Board listened to comments on a proposed development at U.S. 64 and Eubanks Road at a meeting Monday but delayed a vote on the rezoning until the next board meeting in two weeks.
The 70-acre development, known as 64 Crossing at Eubanks Road, would include retail and office space but no housing. Chatham Park Investors, a subsidiary of Preston Development in Cary, owns the land.
Some residents cautioned the board against rushing into more development without waiting for the results from a $50,000 land-use plan commissioned by the town, due back this month.

Project planner Philip Culpepper said that the development is consistent with what he has seen of the land-use plan and that it will not adversely affect downtown merchants. "It's not a mall," he said.
