The Town of Cary does not have an ETJ in Chatham County. An ETJ is an additional area beyond a municipality’s corporate limit where the municipality exercises land use controls, such as subdivision, zoning, and watershed regulations and issuing building permits. In Chatham County, the Town of Pittsboro and Town of Siler City have an ETJ, whereas the Town of Goldston and Town of Cary do not.
