The applicant`s surveyor shows Lots 1-5 on the west side of Acorn Knoll Drive as being split by the County Line. The Orange County Land Records Office shows all of the proposed Subdivision as being in Orange County. The plan consists of nine 1.3-acre lots and "Tract A," a 0.67±-acre parcel and "Tract B," a 5.89±-acre pazcel. A and B are conservation tracts reserved as common areas. The location of the proposed subdivision is designated asAgricultural-Residential in the adopted Land Use Element of the Comprehensive Plan. Accordingly, it is zoned ARCANE-PW}-Agricultural-Residential (Cane Creek Protected Watershed). The maximum permitted impervious surface (ISR) is six percent. J 2 Surrounding lands aze in pasture and single-family residential use. Adjoining pazcels are zoned AR Agricultural-Residential. Entrance to the proposed subdivision is shown as being on the north side of Thom Road (SR 2145)Bradshaw Quarry Road (SR 1100) via Acorn Knoll Drive-a 900'f cul-de-sac with a proposed 50' public right-of--way and an 18' public travelway. The Acorn Knoll Drive entrance is 350' west of Mebane Oaks Road. All nine lots shall be accessed from Acorn Knoll Drive. No stub-out is recommended for the proposed subdivision.

DRAFT The azea is designated as Agricultural Residential in the adopted Land Use Element of the Comprehensive Plan, and accordingly is zoned AR(U-ENO- PW}-Agricultural Residential (Upper Eno Protected Watershed). An exception to this zoning is found in the southernmost 2.5 acres of Lot 1 on the south side of the proposed subdivision where the designation is AR(U- ENO-CA) Agricultural Residential (Upper Eno Critical Area). Surrounding land uses aze wooded and single family residential. Adjoining pazcels are zoned AR The proposed subdivision encompasses 19 acres. It consists of seven two- acre lots and afive-acre lot located partially in the Upper Eno Critical Area. Lot sizes average 2.37a. The subdivision would be accessed from the north side of Carr Store Road via existing Pore Road (private}-a Class A cul de sac to be constructed as an extension of an existing access easement which the developers propose to change the name from Pore Road to Chambers Court. The Class A designation is justified because there aze lazge lots and wider setbacks, and the proposed development is located in a protected watershed. Moreover, covenants will protect permanent open space and prohibit further subdivision. No stubout is recommended for the proposed subdivision because lands to the north are reserved permanently for flood.control purposes, and lands to the west lie within the 100-yeaz floodplain along the East Fork Eno River. Following the flexible development option as offered in Section IV-B-10 of the Subdivision Regulations, the Concept Plan was approved by the Planning Boazd on December 3, 1997. The proposal includes 9.35 acres or 49% open space which will be privately owned and reserved in the form of conservation easements surrounding identified building azeas. The purpose of the easements is to protect woodlands on gentle slopes, streams, and adjacent stream buffers. In addition to these natural buffers along each lot line, easements follow the subdivision boundaries. Planning Staff recommends approval of the Preliminary Plan for the Carl and Teresa Chambers Major Subdivision, with conditions listed in the Resolution of Approval (copy an attachment on pages )and the recommendation that conservation easements not be included in the 50' front setbacks designated for the development. This suggestion would remove 1.6a of open space making the tota17.75a or 41%. MOTION: Selkirk moved approval as recommended by the Planning Staffwith the conditions listed in the Resolution of Approval and the recommendation regazding conservation easements. Seconded by Andrews. VOTE: Unanimous. (2) Village of the Oaks, Phase V (9 Lots -Bingham Township) Presentation by Jim Hinkley. 11 The applicant proposes anine-lot major subdivision which is shown as straddling the Orange-Alamance County Line in the northwest quadrant of CRAFT " the intersection of Mebane Oaks Road (SR 1007) and Thom Road (SR 2145)Bradshaw Quarry Road (SR 1115). The Preliminary Plan is shown as being partially situated in Alamance County. The applicant's surveyor shows Lots 1-5 on the west side of Acorn Knoll Drive as being split by the county line. This is based on the claim that the line is that shown on the USGS 7.5 minute Saxapahaw Quadrangle. The Plan shows the location of the County line to be some 1,500' to the east of that shown on Orange County Tax Maps and verified by the Land Records Office. The Orange County Board of Commissioners stands by that claim. The proposed subdivision is a total of 19.43 acres of which 14.81 a is claimed to be in Bingham Township of Orange County (Tax Map No. 6.16..13A) and 3.19a is in Thompson Township of Alamance County (Tax Parcel No. 9-35-9).

The Acom Knoll Drive entrance is 350' west of Mebane Oaks Road. All nine lots shall be accessed from Aconn Knoll Drive. No stub-out is recommended for the proposed subdivision. Lands to the north are proposed to be reserved permanently as a common conservation azea. Following the flexible development option as presented in Section N-B-10 of the Subdivision Regulations, 6.56a or 40% of the subdivision is proposed as open space which will be reserved in the form of conservation easements or restrictive covenants. These tracts will be owned by the Homeowners Association. The purpose is to establish and preserve visual vegetative buffers, in addition to those buffers (30') required along Mebane Oaks and Bradshaw Quarry (extended as Thom Road to the Alamance County Line) Roads as designated collectors in the Transportation Element of the Comprehensive Plan. To the immediate north of Lots 5 & 6, a 5.89 acre conservation area is reserved as common space. This area would be available for recreational use by residents. . ' ~, ~ "~ Planning Staff recommends approval of the Preliminary Plan for Section Five of Village of the Oaks Major Subdivision, with conditions listed in the Resolution of Approval (copy of the Resolution an attachment to these minutes on pages ). Rachel Best, developer, noted that the question of disputed location of the County line between Orange and Alamance, is.an ongoing question. However, from previous approvals, Ms. Best was proceeding assuming all of this portion is in Orange County. Allison asked if this plan must be submitted to Alamance County for approval. Hinkley responded that the developer has developed the tract according to Orange County regulations which aze considerably more stringent than those of Alamance County. Ms. Best responded that the project was approved in Alamance County as well. In regard to a question from Selkirk regarding the tax bill for Lot #5, Ms. Best responded that it has been agreed that this section is Orange County. She also noted that she owns an additional 90 acres in Alamance County adjacent to this tract. Ms. Best noted that this had been her family's farm and she is very particular about the way the project is developed. Lincoln pointed out that in cases such as this, the plats aze recorded in both counties. MOTION: Strayhorn moved approval as recommended by the Planning Staff. Seconded by Katz. VOTE: Unanimous. (3) Creekwood (64 Lots -Chapel Hill Township) Presentation by Eddie Kirk. The property is located in the Rural Buffer portion of Chapel Hill Township on the north side of Whitfield Road (SR 1730/1731) and on the south side of Mt. Sinai Road (SR 1718). The total acreage of the tract is approximately 462. It is bounded on the west by the H.J. Oosting Natural Area owned by Duke University and on the east by Turkey Farm Road (SR 1730) and Stoneridge subdivision lots and recreation area. New Hope Creek crosses the property at the northeast corner. Other surrounding land uses are residential. A 136-foot tower transmission line right-of--way crosses the northern portion of the property aligned northeast to southwest. The tract is characterized by rolling topography that surrounds and drains toward several stream valleys. The Johnston Branch flows out of a pond on the south side of Whitfield Road under the road and north along the western boundary of the subdivision until it joins Old Field Creek as it emerges from the Oosting Natural Area near the central portion of the site.
