To hold a public hearing on a County initiated land use and zoning amendments. 1. Change Land Use 55.9 acres from Commercial Node to 10 -Year Transition 2. Change Land Use 130.8 acres from Commercial Node to Economic Development 3. Change Land Use 181.3 acres from Rural Residential to Economic Development (Plus 125.5± acres of right -of -way in the interstate and rail corridor) (Zoning amendments areas have been reduced from the previous 2/27/12 proposal) A. Change Zoning 159.25 acres from R -1 (Rural Residential) to EDE -1 (Economic Development Eno Lower Intensity) B. Change Zoning 86.57± acres (including right -of -way) from R -1 (Rural Residential) to EDE -2 (Economic Development Eno Higher Intensity) There are overlaps of the land use and zoning amendments, so these amendments do not exactly encompass the same lands. BACKGROUND: A second public outreach meeting was held on April 25, 2012. Additional public comment along with the original public hearing comments have prompted an amended planning staff recommendation to withdraw several properties (over 95 acres) south of the railroad tracks and another area west of Stoney Creek from the zoning amendments. The changes are shown on new maps on Attachment 2. Page 1 of 6 Comprehensive Plan Land Use Element Map and Zoning Atlas Amendments: In accordance with the provisions of Section 2.3 Comprehensive Plan Amendments and Section 2.8 Zoning Atlas and Unified Development Ordinance Amendments of the Orange County Unified Development Ordinance (UDO), the Planning Director has initiated amendments to the Comprehensive Plan Land Use Element Map and to the Zoning Atlas. The Land Use Element Map is proposed to be modified to change the land use classification of approximately 493.5 acres in the vicinity of the Eno Economic Development District (an area near the Interstate 85 /US Highway 70 interchange in eastern Orange County). An analysis of the land use transportation and environment are in Attachment 3. Land Use Element Map Changes (Area 1) Change 55.9 acres from Commercial Node to 10 -Year Transition (i.e. Urban Residential). This is the area that comprises Whispering Pines subdivision. If approved, this established residential area will have an underlying future residential land use which creates consistency with the existing use. The Parcel Identification Numbers (PIN) for these 55.9 acres are as follows: 9893910204 9893902442 9893700229 9893806742 9893806227 9893809927 9893804345 9893803290 9893902746 9893707211 9893803906 9893809399 9893802155 9893803793 9893805573 9893801992 9893705268 9893808198 9893700687 9893705584 9893709834 9893911241 9893700118 9893902655 9893800468 9893708847 9893912145 9893805077 9893804588 9893706488 9893902848 9893818273 9893808086 9893704588 9893808442 9893805724 9893902959 9893816073 9893803070 9893801473 9893705742 9893815030 9893806885 9892890994 9893707483 9893706647 9893900936 9893704736 9892797873 9893704315 9893809760 9893800876 9893703663 9892793874 9893700421 9893803661 9893808846 9893700525 9893809478 9893704381 9893809650 9893902340 9893902544 9893801306 9893708160 9893703339 9893807204 9893807766 9893805331 9893709160 9893806076 9893900119 9892793773 9893702648 9893708389 9893901121 9893800151 9893817195 9893802646 9893706244 9893703073 9893705048 9893804918 9893707652 9893703272 9892891986 9893703193 9893707829 9893708557 9893901232 9892798990 9892795738 9893807847 9893709563 9893801153 9893807291 9892797963 9893703811 9893807469 9893707016 9893707198 9892793983 9893809890 9893806572 9893804073 9893902164 9892795910 9893800735 9892799992 9893700007 9892699764 9892790923 9892892988 NOTE: 113 properties averaging less than Y2 acre each.

In addition, implement recommendations of the Eno EDD Small Area Plan (2005 -2008) and implement aspects of the Stoney Creek Basin Study (1994- 1996). The City of Durham is concurrently amending land use designations within their Comprehensive Plan [i.e. part of their Urban Growth Boundary (UGB)] to be consistent with these amendments and will wait until Orange County completes their process. Joint neighborhood information meetings with City of Durham staff were on February 22, 2012 and April 25, 2012 at The Murphey School (3717 Murphey School Rd., Durham, NC 27705). Interested persons were encouraged to attend these neighborhood information meetings to learn more about this proposal. Comments are part of Attachment 6. Purpose: To review the item and receive citizen comment on the proposed amendments. FINANCIAL IMPACT: There is no direct financial impact at this time beyond planning staff analysis, mailings and cost of a community meeting. However, these amendments prepare for appropriate land use and zoning categories that can bolster economic development opportunities in the county and its utility /urban growth partnership with the City of Durham. RECOMMENDATION: The Planning Director recommends the Board: 1. Receive the proposal to amend: a. Land Use b. Zoning 2. Conduct the Public Hearing and receive public, BOCC and Planning Board comments, 3. Refer the matter to Planning Board to be returned for BOCC action by September 6, 2012, 4. Adjourn the Public Hearing until September 6, 2012 to receive any written comments between May 29, 2012 and Planning Board recommendation. Page 5 of 6 LIST OF ATTACHMENTS 1. Map a.

Purpose /Mission To create consistency between the City of Durham's UGB and the Orange County Land Use Plan wherein both areas would suggest an urban growth pattern. Thereafter a zoning change would be made to a consistent implementing zoning district that would regulate with standards, permitted uses and processes the form of development. 2. Analysis This area is within the Orange County WASMBPA primary utility service area. This area is within City of Durham's UGB. This area can be served by an existing utility service agreement with the City of Durham that can be extended to this area because of topographic sewer shed. The Eno Small Area Plan (SAP) anticipated urban /suburban densities in this area. Many existing Mobile Home Parks are in the area at higher densities than typical non - public sewered areas creating a fragile yet important housing segment. Some parks have marginal private septic systems that could be prone to failure at such densities and limited soils percolation. This area is within or adjacent to the Eno ED zone which primarily supports non - residential and could provide an adjacent residential component for the urban transition work force. (Update: Orange County and City of Durham have adopted a utility service agreement in January 2012) (See also further analysis attached) 3. Comprehensive Plan Linkage (i.e. Principles Goals and Objectives) 'ED -1.1 Focus public education efforts on sustainability issues, looking at the social, economic and environmental contributions of local businesses. ED -1.2 Form partnerships both within and outside the County to create a stronger business climate and market the changes to existing and potential employers. ED -2.1 Encourage compact and higher density development in areas served by water and sewer. ED -2.2, ED -2.5, ED -2.6, ED -2.7, ED -2.10, ED -3.5 Ensure that County workers and those preparing for the workforce have access to transportation, childcare, elder care, and affordable housing. H -1.5 Ensure that a variety of housing types can be developed throughout the County in a sustainable manner that locates housing near employment centers and commercial centers and that efficiently uses existing and planned public services. H -3.3 Expand assistance in the retrofitting, repair, and maintenance of existing homes owned by financially challenged households, particularly those that are senior citizens. H -3.6, H-4.1 2 Continue to permit HUD code - compliant manufactured housing as a form of affordable housing in the County. LU -1.1 Coordinate the location of higher intensity /high density residential and non - residential development with existing or planned locations of public transportation, commercial and community services, and adequate supporting infrastructure (i.e., water and sewer, high -speed internet access, streets, and sidewalks), while avoiding areas with protected natural and cultural resources. This could be achieved by increasing allowable densities and creating new mixed -use zoning districts where adequate public services are available. LU -2.2, 2.3, 2.7, 2.9, 3.2 LU -4.1 Support the use of individual manufactured housing units as a useful housing resource in the County by increasing the opportunities where these units can locate by- right. WW-2 Coordinate the provision of potable water and sanitary sewer services with the County's Land Use Plan and Orange County - Chapel Hill - Carrboro Joint Planning Agreement and Land Use Plan, targeting these services to urban, transitional, and economic development districts in a manner that does not endanger environmental resources. NACS -Goal 1 Energy conservation, sustainable use of non - polluting renewable energy resources, efficient use of non - renewable energy resources, and clean air. MACS -Goal 6 Sustainable quality and quantity of ground and surface water resources. MACS -Goal 7 A balanced and healthy diversity of native plant and animal populations. NACS -Goal 8 Networks of protected natural, cultural, and agricultural lands. These goals are promoted by creating urban areas that are more efficient in the use of human resources while taking pressure off natural resources in other areas. 4.

FISCAL IMPACT Orange County has committed utility investment in these areas to assist in economic development infrastructure. These amendments advance and support public investment. D. AMENDMENT IMPLICATIONS 4 Amend Orange County /City of Durham Utility Services Agreement to comport with new Land Use and Zoning Boundary. Continue to analyze Eno EDD SAP and amend as necessary to create a comprehensive program of development and environmental compatibility. E. SPECIFIC AMENDMENT LANGUAGE Primary Staff Contact: Craig N. Benedict Planning & Inspections 919- 245 -2585 cbenedict @co. orange.nc. us ENO EDD AREA LAND USE AND ZONING AMENDMENTS Land Use, Transportation and Environmental Analysis HISTORY ATTACHMENT 4 The majority of the area bounded by the NCRR Railway and 1-85 and west has been designated as an urban growth area since 1981 because of its proximity to transportation (Interstate, US Highway and Rail), adjacency to an urban area such as the City of Durham which can provide urban services such as water and sewer. This pattern of growth was reconfirmed in the 1988 land use plan and economic development land use and zoning amendments for the majority of the area in 1994. The majority of these areas were designated for non- residential commercial office and industrial uses although limited higher urban density housing is also permitted. In the late 90's (1994 -96) the Stoney Creek Basin Small Area Plan added certain additional lands to the west and southwest of the urban area for higher intensity and intermediate intensity. Only the higher intensity area is partially included in these amendment areas. JUSTIFICATION The analysis within the ENO SAP (which is on the County's Planning website) explains and supports the importance of this general area for higher intensity activity while preserving environmental and cultural resources of the Eno River to the north and Stoney Creek Basin to the west. The advent of public sewer will lessen the potential for septic systems to create nutrient runoff. In addition, Orange County has improved its floodplain regulations and stormwater techniques to further the protection of the Lower Eno Watershed which supports City of Durham's water supply. A7 -TAc- vt m,-;v r �' Eno Economic Development District (EDD) Neighborhood information Meeting February 25, 2012 Citizen Comments 1. Stoney Creek Basin EDE -1 vs. EDE -2 The EDE -2 is suggested by staff because of the frontage along 1 -85 and its relative isolation between the interstate, Mt. Herman Church Road, railroad tracks, and high voltage primary electric transmission lines. The opposite side (east) of the road is also presently EDE -2. Also to the east is Existing Commercial zoning (EC -5). 2. Resource Protection Areas (RPA) RPAs are a layer of the land use plan and are still operational in the Unified Development Ordinance (UDO) to protect environmental areas (i.e. stream buffers, steep slopes, etc.). 3. What is light industrial; compare Orange County and Durham County? The uses were discussed during the Eno EDD SAP meetings and comparability was achieved. Uses are not of the higher impact industrial. List of specific uses were added to webpage. 4. Why now public utilities? This area has been noted as an urban growth land use since 1981 and reconfirmed in 1994 and 2008. Recommendations in the Eno Small Area Plan suggested an agreement with the City of Durham which was accomplished in January 2012. Orange County is facilitating the proposed land use pattern since any one small or large business could not afford to build infrastructure. Job growth is more important than ever in designated areas. 84% of the county is rural and only 16% including cities and along interstates is designated as Urban. 5. Annexation These land use and zoning amendments do not create annexation programs. If a new business or resident wants public water and sewer, they will sign a voluntary annexation form and if the City of Durham decides the petition meets state law and is fiscally feasible then it may be annexed. (See annexation monograph from City of Durham) 6. Why are there two plans Orange County and City of Durham? There are two land use plans (Orange County and City of Durham) and one zoning plan (only Orange County). The area is within Orange County which has a land use and zoning program. If a city also has an area of county within its future urban growth boundary (UGB) then they also have a future land use plan map. Land use comparability is key in these urban but non - extraterritorial jurisdictions (non -ETJ). 7. Mobile Home Parks The northern mobile home park is being rezoned to EDE -2 which has frontage on 1 -85. The southern mobile home park will remain Planned Development HR 4 zoning since its approval contains special `Planned Development' conditions until such time a different project is proposed. The future land use and existing zoning would allow residential to remain and /or be upgraded. 17 NOTICE OF NEIGHBORHOOD INFORMATION MEETING AND PUBLIC HEARING Comprehensive Plan Amendments and Zoning Atlas (Map) Amendments Orange County DURHAM City of Durham Planning and Inspections Department r City-County Planning Department 131 W.
