The amendment does not change and standards or requirements. Financial Impact: None Recommended Action: The text amendment is complete and ready for decision by the Board of Commissioners. The Planning Board unanimously recommended adoption of the amendment. A motion to approve could be worded as follows: “I hereby move to approve the ordinance amending the Subdivision Regulations to identify types and describe access requirements, and find the amendment reasonable, in the public’s interest, and consistent with the Person County & City of Roxboro Joint Comprehensive Land Use Plan because it improves the clarity of the land development regulations.” Submitted By: Nishith Trivedi, Planning Director 3 10/28/2025 PERSON COUNTY PLANNING & ZONING DEPARTMENT STAFF REPORT Text Amendment TA-08-25 - Amend the Subdivision Regulations to more clearly identify the types of subdivisions and the types of access needed for each type. Request Text Amendment TA-08-25 proposes to amend the Subdivision Regulations to more clearly identify the types of subdivisions and the types of access needed for each type. Introduction The Subdivision Regulations currently offer many options to provide the needed legal access to newly created lots. However, these options are not listed in one place, but have to be pieced together by reading the entire ordinance. I recommend the following amendments to make the current allowances and requirements clear: 1) Create a section that lists the types of subdivisions and remove the definitions from the definition section. a. Exempt (defined by state law) b. Family (allowed where transfer is to family members – roads are not required to be created or built) c. Minor (no more than 5 lots created, roads may be private or easements – construction not clearly required) d. Major (6 or more lots, requirement for public roads when 7 or more lots created) 2) Pull the various access options together and place in one section a. Public Road b. Private Road c. Partial width right of way d. Access easement Attached are the relevant portions of the Subdivision Regulations with some rearranged text and new text for discussion purposes. Marked up sections for each of these issues is attached as Exhibit A. Language to be removed is shown in the strike-through font. New language is in italics and highlighted yellow. Comprehensive Plan & Zoning Consistency Person County Planning Ordinance Section 153, Amendments to the Zoning Map or Ordinance, as well as, NCGS §160D-604 & § 160D-605, requires plan consistency and a recommendation from the Planning Board and the Board of Commissioners. For amendments like this, one is unlikely to find language in a comprehensive plan to support the amendments. A general statement of plan consistency and a desire for clear regulations can use used as adequate support. 4 TA-08-25 - Staff Report Page 2 of 2 10/28/2025 Planning & Zoning Department Staff Analysis & Potential Motion This amendment is primarily a reorganization of current language and does not change any standards or requirements. Based on the above, Planning & Zoning Department staff states that the amendments are consistent with the Comprehensive Plan. Planning Board Recommendation At the Planning Board public hearing, staff advised the Planning Board one further adjustment to the text was needed to comply with state law. The list of exempt plats currently includes re-surveys of existing lots when no lot line adjustment is made. State law governing survey standards indicates surveys of existing lots can be recorded without certificates from planning departments or review officer. The Planning Board members agreed to include revised wording to this effect in this amendment. No one from the public spoke during the public hearing. Vice Chair Allen moved to approve the text amendments as included in the agenda packet plus the adjustment to the list of exempt plats as described. Member McFarland seconded. The vote was unanimous. The Board could adopt a written Statement of Reasonableness and Plan Consistency in a single-statement potential motion, as follows: “I hereby move to approve the ordinance amending the Subdivision Regulations to identify types and describe access requirements, and find the amendment reasonable, in the public’s interest, and consistent with the Person County & City of Roxboro Joint Comprehensive Land Use Plan because it improves the clarity of the land development regulations.” Attachments: Exhibit A: Marked-up Ordinance Excerpts Exhibit B: Amending ordinance 5 Date of Adoption: March 9, 1987 6 SECTION 16 – EXCLUSIONS Subdivision Types (Amended: 5-3-99) 16-1 Excluded or Exempt plats (retitling current text, no wording changes unless shown) Surveys meeting the requirements of GS 47-30(f)11.c do not require a signature from the Planning and Zoning Administrator or the review officer and may be directly submitted to the Register of Deeds for recordation.

This will allow the deletion of the junkyard and mobile home park ordinances. Summary of Information: The proposed text amendment merges two freestanding ordinances into the Planning Ordinance and organizes other review language for special uses into one section.

Financial Impact: None Recommended Action: The text amendment is complete and ready for decision by the Board of Commissioners. This amendment was heard at the Planning Board’s Special Meeting on October 16. There were no members of the public present. Vice Chair Allen moved to approve the package of amendments as discussed at the meeting. Member Lester seconded. The vote was 5-1 with Wagstaff opposed to adjustments made regarding buffers to Recreational Vehicle Parks. A motion to approve could be worded as follows: “I hereby move to approve TA-13-25 to consolidate two freestanding ordinances into the Planning Ordinance and establishing permit review sections, and find the document reasonable, in the public’s interest and consistent with the Person County & City of Roxboro Joint Comprehensive Land Use Plan because it clarifies the regulation language.” Submitted By: Nishith Trivedi, Planning Director 63 10/28/2025 PERSON COUNTY PLANNING & ZONING DEPARTMENT STAFF REPORT Text Amendment TA-13-25 to merge the junkyard ordinance and mobile home park ordinance into the Planning Ordinance and consolidate Special Use Permit standards.

Planning and Zoning Consultant Margaret Hauth presented the following: 97 November 3, 2025 7 98 November 3, 2025 8 99 November 3, 2025 9 There were no individuals appearing before the Board to speak in favor of RZ-02- 25 – Rezoning Request from Chris and Brian Hicks to Rezone 6.62 acres in 6 different parcels near the intersection of Jim Thorpe Highway and Virgilina Road from Residential (R) to Highway Business (B-1), Tax Map and Parcel 72-22, 72-43, 72-44, 72-45, 73-36 & 73-69. The following individual appeared before the Board to speak in opposition to RZ- 02-25 – Rezoning Request from Chris and Brian Hicks to Rezone 6.62 acres in 6 different parcels near the intersection of Jim Thorpe Highway and Virgilina Road from Residential (R) to Highway Business (B-1), Tax Map and Parcel 72-22, 72-43, 72-44, 72-45, 73-36 & 73-69: Providence Baptist Church Interim Pastor Reverend Reymond Wooten stated that when the church confronted the applicant, Mr. Hicks, about potential plans for the land, Hicks would not tell them. He stated that once the land is zoned commercial, it is a done deal. He stated that at the Planning Board meeting a few possibilities for the land were mentioned from a landscape supply company to a health spa massage business. He stated that the church is very concerned about this and the cemetery road access, as this road is not an access road and should not be used as such. He stated that the church has no issues with the land that is west of 501, only the parcels to the east, closest to the church, as it would interfere with church activities and funerals if a business were to be located there. He stated that the church would like to have clarification on what plans Hicks has for the site. Chairman Puryear asked Hauth if the applicant had indicated what the land would be used for. Hauth stated only what was mentioned at the Planning Board meeting. She stated that it is not required for a rezoning application to indicate what your potential use is. She stated that the Board cannot place conditions on what the use is. She stated that the Board needs to look at the list of permitted uses in the Business District, as each and every one of them is a possibility. She stated that even if the owner did have a particular use in mind, a general-purpose rezoning can be used for any of those uses. A motion was made by Commissioner Wilborn and carried 5-0 to close the public hearing for RZ-02-25 – Rezoning Request from Chris and Brian Hicks to Rezone 6.62 acres in 6 different parcels near the intersection of Jim Thorpe Highway and Virgilina Road from Residential (R) to Highway Business (B-1), Tax Map and Parcel 72-22, 72-43, 72-44, 72-45, 73-36 & 73-69. 100 November 3, 2025 10 CONSIDERATION TO GRANT OR DENY RZ-02-25 – REZONING REQUEST FROM CHRIS AND BRIAN HICKS TO REZONE 6.62 ACRES IN 6 DIFFERENT PARCELS NEAR THE INTERSECTION OF JIM THORPE HIGHWAY AND VIRGILINA ROAD FROM RESIDENTIAL (R) TO HIGHWAY BUSINESS(B-1), TAX MAP AND PARCEL 72-22, 72-43, 72-44, 72-45, 73-36 & 73-69 Commissioner Wilborn stated that the parcels are at intersections of a major highway and that two of the parcels are already zoned B-1. She stated that the biggest parcel, which is to the east, is already zoned B-1, so the owner could do any of those commercial uses that are permitted in that zoning district. She stated, and to Hauth’ s point, even if the applicant said what they were going to do with the land, they would not be bound to that. A motion was made by Commissioner Wilborn to approve RZ-02-25 – Rezoning Request from Chris and Brian Hicks to Rezone 6.62 acres in 6 different parcels near the intersection of Jim Thorpe Highway and Virgilina Road from Residential (R) to Highway Business (B-1), Tax Map and Parcel 72-22, 72-43, 72-44, 72-45, 73-36 & 73-69. Chairman Puryear stated that he realizes everything that Wilborn said is correct; however, he was hoping that the applicant would have been present to answer questions from the public hearing. He stated that he understands the community’s frustration and would like to see continued dialogue between the community and the landowner. He stated that he is not comfortable with approval. Commissioner Long asked Puryear was he going to offer a substitute motion to approve the parcels west of 501 and not the eastern portion until there is clarification from the applicant. Puryear stated that Wilborn’s motion was for approval of all parcels presented and that he is not offering a substitute motion. Commissioner Royster stated that she agrees with Puryear, given the fact that children play in that area of the cemetery and the access road. She stated that she wished there was more information from the applicants. Vice-Chairman Thomas stated that he is not comfortable with moving forward with approval until Hicks has become a better neighbor to the church. Commissioner Long asked what would the other zoning option be on the property east of 501 that would require a Special Use Permit. Hauth stated that there is B- 2, which has fewer uses. Long stated that he is trying to figure out a way that the Board can address everybody’s concern, to give them some options. 101 November 3, 2025 11 A substitute motion was made by Commissioner Long and carried 5-0 to approve the zoning request of everything west of 501, to include parcels 72-43, 72-44, and 72-45 and find it is consistent with the adopted Person County & City of Roxboro Joint Comprehensive Land Use Plan. PUBLIC HEARING: PETITION TA-10-25- TEXT AMENDMENT TO AMEND THE PLANNING ORDINANCE APPENDIX B AND C TO CLARIFY PROVISIONS FOR SHORT TERM RENTALS OF WHOLE DWELLINGS AND ROOMS A motion was made by Vice-Chairman Thomas and carried 5-0 to open the duly advertised public hearing for Petition TA-10-25 – Text Amendment to Amend the Planning Ordinance Appendix B and C to clarify provisions for short term rentals of whole dwellings and rooms. Planning and Zoning Consultant Margaret Hauth stated that in her professional opinion, the managing of short-term rentals, particularly of an entire dwelling unit, is very difficult to do under Planning and Zoning. She stated that the issues that you have are not directly land use related. She stated that the issues are related to other departments. She stated that it is related to occupancy, which in a county that is predominately well and septic, is more in the realm of Environmental Health. She stated it is traffic control, it is solid waste provision, and it is noise control, which all are very difficult to manage with a Planning Ordinance. She stated that basically this text amendment is adding the definition for lodging unit to the ordinance and included in the definition of lodging unit, would be the different types, both bed and breakfast and short-term rentals. There were no individuals appearing before the Board to speak in favor of Petition TA-10-25 – Text Amendment to Amend the Planning Ordinance Appendix B and C to clarify provisions for short term rentals of whole dwellings and rooms. The following individuals appeared before the Board to speak in opposition to Petition TA-10-25 – Text Amendment to Amend the Planning Ordinance Appendix B and C to clarify provisions for short term rentals of whole dwellings and rooms: Maureen LaQuay of 280 Indian Trail Road, Timberlake stated that she has lived in Timberlake for 18 years. She stated that for the past four or five years, there have been parties held on a farm property with thousands of attendees. She stated that at the latest party, there were thousands walking up and down the road, probably drunk, blocking the roads, and there was loud noise and music. She stated that people could get hurt or killed. She stated that there are things going on at these parties that she does not want in her neighborhood. She stated that she does not know why it is allowed. 102 November 3, 2025 12 LaQuay stated that she would like the Commissioners to stop these parties from happening. She stated that she had concerns about if this is allowed to continue, how it would affect property values. Wendy Gentry of 2259 Berry Pearce Road, Timberlake stated that she would like to speak on the property that LaQuay just mentioned. She stated that these parties have been going on for a few years now and have been in the news. She stated that her property is adjacent. She stated that the community is not happy with the circumstances that have taken place over the last three to four years. She asked why is Person County allowing this to happen, and why aren’t there guidelines, and restrictions in place to prevent properties that are short-term rentals, such as this from having these parties. Commissioner Wilborn asked Hauth to address whether the issue that LaQuay and Gentry spoke of is related to this particular item. Hauth stated that it is not related. She stated that the definition for lodging units and short-term rentals implies a family coming to stay, to sleep on the premises. She stated that the Planning Board specifically excluded the ability for events to happen at short-term rentals from the definition, as it is a separate use, under event center. She stated that that would be the use that the owner of the land that LaQuay and Gentry spoke of, needs to apply for, which is completely separate, and the text amendment being heard tonight, would have no impact on what happened on that property or how that Special Use Permit would be reviewed. A motion was made by Commissioner Wilborn and carried 5-0 to close the public hearing for Petition TA-10-25 – Text Amendment to Amend the Planning Ordinance Appendix B and C to clarify provisions for short term rentals of whole dwellings and rooms. CONSIDERATION TO GRANT OR DENY PETITION TA-10-25- TEXT AMENDMENT TO AMEND THE PLANNING ORDINANCE APPENDIX B AND C TO CLARIFY PROVISIONS FOR SHORT TERM RENTALS OF WHOLE DWELLINGS AND ROOMS A motion was made by Commissioner Wilborn and carried 5-0 to approve TA- 10-25 – Text Amendment to Amend the Planning Ordinance Appendix B and C to clarify provisions for short-term rentals of whole dwellings and rooms and find the document reasonable, in the public’s interest, and consistent with the Person County & City of Roxboro Joint Comprehensive Land Use Plan because it clarifies the regulation language. 103 November 3, 2025 13 Chairman Puryear stated that he thinks it is important that the County look at preventing those types of events, which was discussed, from occurring in the County and instructed the County Manager to speak with the Planning Director to develop a process for preventative measures for events like this from occurring again. PUBLIC HEARING: PETITION TA-11-25-TEXT AMENDMENT TO AMEND THE PLANNING ORDINANCE APPENDIX C TO ALLOW CAMPER/RV PARKS AS A BY-RIGHT USE IN THE RC DISTRICT SUBJECT TO NEW REQUIREMENTS ADDED AS SECTION 80-4 A motion was made by Commissioner Royster and carried 5-0 to open the duly advertised public hearing for Petition TA-11-25 – Text Amendment to Amend the Planning Ordinance Appendix C to allow Camper/RV Parks as a by-right use in the RC district subject to new requirements added as Section 80-4. Planning and Zoning Consultant Margaret Hauth stated that the proposed text amendment would change the review process and requirements for Camper/RV Parks. She stated that the Board has expressed some interest in allowing Camper/RV Parks by right in the RC District to ease the short-term housing crunch expected with significant construction activity at county non-residential sites. Chairman Puryear asked if this text amendment included solar farms. Hauth stated this has nothing to do with solar farms, only Camper/RV Parks in the RC District. There were no individuals appearing before the Board to speak in favor of or in opposition to Petition TA-11-25 – Text Amendment to Amend the Planning Ordinance Appendix C to allow Camper/RV Parks as a by-right use in the RC district subject to new requirements added as Section 80-4. A motion was made by Chairman Puryear and carried 5-0 to close the public hearing for Petition TA-11-25 – Text Amendment to Amend the Planning Ordinance Appendix C to allow Camper/RV Parks as a by-right use in the RC district subject to new requirements added as Section 80-4. CONSIDERATION TO GRANT OR DENY PETITION TA-11-25-TEXT AMENDMENT TO AMEND THE PLANNING ORDINANCE APPENDIX C TO ALLOW CAMPER/RV PARKS AS A BY-RIGHT USE IN THE RC DISTRICT SUBJECT TO NEW REQUIREMENTS ADDED AS SECTION 80-4 104 November 3, 2025 14 Commissioner Wilborn stated that this text amendment change came up because the County has a housing shortage and that we know that we are going to have a number of construction workers coming in for some of the industrial projects that the County has. She stated that she is okay with adding Special Use Permit for the GI District. Commissioner Long stated that he agrees with Wilborn and that this is badly needed for future projects that are coming into the County. Chairman Puryear stated that when you are making a change on anything, there are some unintended consequences that were never the intent. He asked if this was discussed at the Planning Board meeting. Hauth stated that was the Planning Board’s biggest concern, that if RV Parks become a use by right, then you will see them scattered throughout the county, and then when the contractors go away, who would be living in the park and maintaining it, and would this be a temporary land use or a permanent land use. She stated that they are not intended to be permanent dwellings. Commissioner Royster stated that her concern is longevity, how long someone stays in an RV, and once they do leave, who would be responsible for maintaining the park. Vice-Chairman Thomas stated that he understands where Royster is coming from, but he is in agreement with Wilborn and Long. Chairman Puryear stated that he fully agrees with everything that was said tonight about the pros of changing the text amendment. He stated that when you change something there is going to be something that comes down the road that you did not fully anticipate. A motion was made by Commissioner Wilborn and carried 3-2 to allow Camper/RV Parks as a use by right in the Rural Conservation District and as allowable with a Special Use Permit in the General Industrial District and find the amendment reasonable, in the public’s interest, and consistent with the Person County & City of Roxboro Joint Comprehensive Land Use Plan because it is consistent with the stated purpose of the Rural Conservation district and adds flexibility to provide more housing choice in a short period of time. Chairman Puryear and Commissioner Royster voted in opposition. PUBLIC HEARING: PETITION TA-14-25-TEXT AMENDMENT TO AMEND THE PLANNING ORDINANCE SECTION 155 TO ASSIGN REVIEW OF SPECIAL USE PERMITS TO THE BOARD OF ADJUSTMENT RATHER THAN THE BOARD OF COMMISSIONERS 105 November 3, 2025 15 A motion was made by Commissioner Wilborn and carried 5-0 to open the duly advertised public hearing for Petition TA-14-25 – Text Amendment to Amend the Planning Ordinance Section 155 to assign review of Special Use Permits to the Board of Adjustment rather than the Board of Commissioners. Planning and Zoning Consultant Margaret Hauth stated that The Board of Commissioners has expressed an interest to assign the review of Special Use Permits to the Board of Adjustment. She stated that if approved, the Commissioners would no longer review these requests. She stated that this amendment is consistent with state law. Chairman Puryear stated that he was one of the ones that asked for this to be looked into because this is the way it was done years ago with the Board of Adjustment handling Special Use Permits and sometime around 2010-2011 the Board of Commissioners decided to change it from the Board of Adjustment to the Board of Commissioners. He stated that he does not think the timing is right for transitioning it over to the Board of Adjustment, who just met for the first time in five years, and to throw that on them at this point, they probably did not know what they were signing up for. Vice Chairman Thomas stated that he was in agreement with Puryear. There were no individuals appearing before the Board to speak in favor of Petition TA-14-25 – Text Amendment to Amend the Planning Ordinance Section 155 to assign review of Special Use Permits to the Board of Adjustment rather than the Board of Commissioners. The following individual appeared before the Board to speak in opposition to Petition TA-14-25 – Text Amendment to Amend the Planning Ordinance Section 155 to assign review of Special Use Permits to the Board of Adjustment rather than the Board of Commissioners: Scott McKinney of 220 Crestwood Drive, Roxboro stated that he is chair of the Person County Economic Development Commission, and is not in favor of this text amendment change. He stated that his stance is consistent with the recommendation from the Planning Board to not approve the amendment. He stated, as EDC chair, he supports Person County Economic Development Director Brandy Lynch as she engages with existing Person County businesses and with companies interested in locating to Person County. He stated that a Special Use Permit requires a competent board to balance those interests and render a decision based upon relevant evidence. He stated that reasonable and appropriate conditions and safeguards may be imposed upon Special Use Permits that are granted. 106 November 3, 2025 16 McKinney stated that it seems more appropriate for elected officials rather than appointees to exercise that authority. He stated that the Commissioners are best positioned to handle special use requests in a professional manner that protects the interests of all. A motion was made by Commissioner Wilborn and carried 5-0 to close the public hearing for Petition TA-14-25 – Text Amendment to Amend the Planning Ordinance Section 155 to assign review of Special Use Permits to the Board of Adjustment rather than the Board of Commissioners. Commissioner Wilborn stated that when the Board talked about this before, she felt it was a good idea. She stated that unfortunately when people come before an elected body, it seems impossible for politics not to come into play. She stated that she thinks people, land owners, and developers should be able to get a fair hearing. She stated that if the Board were to move this to the Board of Adjustment, she thinks that McKinney is right that the Commissioners have been selected by the voters and that there is a majority new Board from the time that the people on the Board of Adjustment were appointed. She stated that if the Board were to move it to the Board of Adjustment, she would want to see the Board be able to appoint those Board of Adjustment members, as she and the rest of the Board would be accountable to the public. CONSIDERATION TO GRANT OR DENY PETITION TA-14-25-TEXT AMENDMENT TO AMEND THE PLANNING ORDINANCE SECTION 155 TO ASSIGN REVIEW OF SPECIAL USE PERMITS TO THE BOARD OF ADJUSTMENT RATHER THAN THE BOARD OF COMMISSIONERS A motion was made by Chairman Puryear and carried 5-0 to not approve Petition TA-14-25 – Text Amendment to Amend the Planning Ordinance Section 155 to assign review of Special Use Permits to the Board of Adjustment rather than the Board of Commissioners. CALL FOR PUBLIC HEARING FOR ITEMS 6E, 6F, 6G, AND 6H Chairman Puryear stated that Items 6E, 6F, 6G, and 6H were removed from the agenda. He stated that since they were advertised Public Hearings that the Board needed to open the hearings. County Attorney T.C. Morphis, Jr. stated that the Board could simply open the hearing for those four items, and then receive a motion to continue. 107 November 3, 2025 17 A motion was made by Commissioner Long and carried 5-0 open the duly advertised public hearing for Petition TA-08-25 – Text Amendment to Amend the Subdivision Regulations to more clearly identify the types of subdivisions and the types of access needed for each type, Petition TA-09-25 – Text Amendment to Amend the Planning Ordinance to create Section 61 to clearly allow multiple dwellings on lots subject to conditions with amendments to the permitted use table and definitions section to add clarity, Petition TA-12-25 – Text Amendment to Amend the Planning Ordinance Appendix B and C to consolidate uses in the permitted use table and add new definitions, and Petition TA-13-25 – Text Amendment to Amend the Planning Ordinance to create Sections 80, 81, 82, 83, 84, and 85 to detail review processes by use from the current ordinance, junkyard ordinance, and mobile home park ordinance. This will allow the deletion of the junkyard and mobile home park ordinances. A motion was made by Commissioner Long and carried 5-0 to continue Petition TA-08-25 – Text Amendment to Amend the Subdivision Regulations to more clearly identify the types of subdivisions and the types of access needed for each type, Petition TA-09-25 – Text Amendment to Amend the Planning Ordinance to create Section 61 to clearly allow multiple dwellings on lots subject to conditions with amendments to the permitted use table and definitions section to add clarity, Petition TA-12-25 – Text Amendment to Amend the Planning Ordinance Appendix B and C to consolidate uses in the permitted use table and add new definitions, and Petition TA-13-25 – Text Amendment to Amend the Planning Ordinance to create Sections 80, 81, 82, 83, 84, and 85 to detail review processes by use from the current ordinance, junkyard ordinance, and mobile home park ordinance to the November 18, 2025 Board of Commissioners Meeting. INFORMAL COMMENTS: The following individuals appeared before the Board to make informal comments: Maureen LaQuay of 280 Indian Trail Road, Timberlake stated that she appreciates the Board listening to her with the issue on Berry Pearce Road and being willing to look in to it. She stated that due to this party, there was a lot of property damage. She stated that people parked in fields, on people’s crops, and anywhere else that they could find a place to park. She stated that also due to this party, there were safety concerns for animals due to the noise. Wendy Gentry of 2259 Berry Pearce Road, Timberlake stated that in her communication with the Sheriff’s Office on numerous occasions regarding these parties over the past three to four years, she has been told that they have been overwhelming, and hard for them to manage, especially the amount of people with alcohol consumption. She stated that the Sheriff’s Office does not have enough manpower. 108 November 3, 2025 18 Gentry stated that if the owner of this property decides to file for the Special Use Permit, she hopes the Board will consider all that was said tonight. Ollie Jeffers of 285 Dunnaway Road, Semora stated that she is with Mothers Against Drunk Driving (MADD). She stated that she is here tonight to talk about the field party that occurred, referenced as the “Oil Spill”. She stated that MADD received a lot of calls from concerned citizens and a lot of people angry about the party. She stated that MADD did a lot of investigation and talked with a lot of people. She stated that she talked with the fraternity, the students, and everybody to try to find out what happened so it does not happen again. She stated that what she found out was that the company that did the advertising is very popular. She stated that she got a copy of the ticket that was needed to enter the party and that students who purchased tickets screenshotted them and sent them to other people, so they would not have to pay to come. She stated that there is no way that this party could have controlled. She stated that this event was a disaster, an accident waiting to happen. She stated that there was no alcohol sold at the event; however, students brought in alcohol. She stated that something has to be done to prevent this in the future.
