PURPOSE: To authorize staff to proceed with steps for the development and adoption of the
Town of Hillsborough /Orange County Central Orange Coordinated Area Land Use Plan
according to the schedule proposed in the Amendment Outline (Attachment 1).
BACKGROUND: Consistent with the Hillsborough- Orange Interlocal Land Management
Agreement (December 2009), the Town of Hillsborough adopted a Future Land Use Plan in
March 2013 for its planning jurisdiction and some additional areas of County jurisdiction. These
additional areas of County jurisdiction are located within the Town's Urban Service Boundary for
its public water and /or sewer services and generally located around the Town's fringe. Orange
County staff, the Board of County Commissioners, and the public provided input throughout the
Town's planning process.
In general and consistent with the Agreement, following Town adoption, the BOCC is to
consider endorsing the Plan or arranging for negotiation and agreement on any changes.
Attachment 1, for the Board's review and approval, is an Amendment Outline providing the
rationale, process, and implications of the development and adoption of the Town of
Hillsborough /Orange County Central Orange Coordinated Area Land Use Plan.

FINANCIAL IMPACT: Other than staff time, there is no financial impact associated with
receiving, considering and authorizing the staff to proceed with the development and adoption
of the Plan. This work will be completed by existing Planning staff in the Department's
Comprehensive Planning Division. There will be costs associated with public notification and
funds have been budgeted for this purpose in FY 2013 -14.
RECOMMENDATION(S): The Manager recommends the Board:
1. Approve the attached Amendment form (Attachment 1) for the development of a Town of
Hillsborough /Orange County Central Orange Coordinated Area Land Use Plan; and
2. Direct Planning staff to proceed accordingly.

B. RATIONALE
1. Purpose /Mission
Initiate the implementation of the Hillsborough- Orange Interlocal Land Management
Agreement (2009) beginning with the adoption of a joint Town of
Hillsborough /Orange County Central Orange Coordinated Area Land Use Plan. The
intent of the coordinated planning areas defined in the Agreement is to provide clear
M
and consistent guidance for land use /zoning decisions, coordinated growth patterns,
and a distinction between areas that are to have urban characteristics from those
that are to remain rural.
Subsequent implementation of the Agreement will result in:
• 2030 Comprehensive Plan amendments to implement the joint Land Use
Plan;
• adjustment of the Town's Extra Territorial Jurisdiction (abandonment of some
existing ETJ by the Town and the County granting new ETJ); and
• amendments to the County's Unified Development Ordinance.
2. Analysis
The required analysis will be part of the subsequent evaluation, development and
approval of project implementation actions.
3. Comprehensive Plan Linkage (i.e. Goals and Objectives)
Land Use Goal 1: Fiscally and environmentally responsible, sustainable growth,
consistent with the provision of adequate services and facilities and a high quality of
life.
Objective 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.
Objective LU -1.2:
Evaluate and report on whether existing and approved locations for future residential
and non - residential developments are coordinated with the location of public
transportation, commercial and community services, and adequate supporting
infrastructure (i.e., water and sewer services, high -speed internet access, streets and
sidewalks).
Land Use Goal 3: A variety of land uses that are coordinated within a program and
pattern that limits sprawl, preserves community and rural character, minimizes land
use conflicts, supported by an efficient and balanced transportation system.
Objective LU -3.1:
Discourage urban sprawl, encourage a separation of urban and rural land uses, and
direct new development into areas where necessary community facilities and
services exist through periodic updates to the Land Use Plan.
2
Land Use Goal 6: A land use planning process that is transparent, fair, open,
efficient, and responsive.
Objective LU -6.1:
Undertake a comprehensive effort to inform and involve the citizens of Orange
County in the land use planning process.
Objective LU -6.2:
Maintain a cooperative joint planning process among the County municipalities and
those organizations responsible for the provision of water and sewer services to
guide the extension of service in accordance with the Comprehensive Plan, the
Orange County - Chapel Hill - Carrboro Joint Planning Agreement and Land Use Plan,
and the policies of the municipalities.

2. PUBLIC INVOLVEMENT PROGRAM
Mission /Scope: Public Hearing process consistent with NC State Statutes and
Orange County ordinance requirements. Additionally, staff will hold one Public Input
Meeting in August to review the Plan that was adopted by the Town of Hillsborough in
March 2013. Town staff will attend the meeting.
At the February 21, 2013 joint meeting with the Town of Hillsborough, BOCC
members and the County Manager had questions about the concept of a Central
Orange Rural Buffer and notification of the public if such a concept were to come
a
forward from staff. There were also general questions regarding notification and
some concern expressed over the notification of the public within areas to be effected
by Extraterritorial Jurisdiction (ETJ) swaps. Link to minutes of the joint meeting with
Hillsborough: http: / /server3.co.orange.nc.us: 8088 /weblink8 /0 /doc /28127 /Page1.aspx
At this time, staff is recommending a public hearing on land uses within the Urban
Services Area only, which the Town adopted in March. The Urban Services Area
includes the Town's existing planning jurisdiction (Town Limits and ETJ) plus some
additional areas of County jurisdiction. These are the areas to be served by Town
public water and /or sewer services and are generally located around the Town's
fringe (darker blue and orange areas on attached Interlocal Agreement map).
Staff will ask the BOCC to approve separate Amendment Outline forms before the
ETJ swap is initiated and to determine if staff is to further explore a Rural Buffer
concept around Hillsborough. Therefore, subsequent Amendment Outlines will
describe respective citizen outreach and public notification plans.

Adopted March 11, 2013
Hillsborough, NC Future Land Use Plan
The Future Land Use Plan is composed of a map showing Future Land Use Designations and a brief text
detailing those designations and how they align with zoning districts listed in the Hillsborough Unified
Development Ordinance. Together, the map and text constitute the Future Land Use Plan for the Town of
Hillsborough and lands within its jurisdiction. The Plan is adopted as a component of the Hillsborough
Comprehensive Plan and is subject to amendments following the procedure established in the Unified
Development Ordinance.
Nothing in this document limits the Hillsborough Town Board of Commissioners authority to regulate
land use within its jurisdiction. Future Land Use Designations are not a guarantee that land will remain
zoned in any particular use district, and are subject to the availability of infrastructure, including but not
limited to water, sanitary sewer, and streets necessary to support designated or proposed uses.
Future Land Use Classifications
Natural Resource. These areas are unique natural areas or environmental sensitive areas. The primary
designation is for the 100 -year flood zones along the Eno River and Cates Creek. The Eno River
floodplain is a natural area of national significance. This designation does not follow parcel boundaries
and overlays other designations listed here.
Permanent Open Space. These areas are intended for long -term use as open space, parks, or natural
areas that protect scenic, historic, cultural, and environmentally valued lands. They include lands that are
permanently protected, though not necessarily publicly owned or accessible, through private conservation
easements or other private conservation measures, and publicly held park or conservation lands. Zoning
Districts: Agricultural - Residential; Protected Watershed & Protected Watershed Critical Area
Working Farm. These areas reflect existing agricultural use in locations where continued agricultural use
is desirable for the foreseeable future. Zoning Districts: Agricultural - Residential; R -40
Rural Living. These areas reflect existing very -low density residential uses with densities below 0.5
dwelling units per acre (at least a 2 -acre minimum lot size) that occurs in areas without public water and
sewer service, in locations where continued low - intensity use without public water and sewer is desirable
for the foreseeable future. Zoning Districts: Agricultural - Residential; Protected Watershed &
Protected Watershed Critical Area; R -40
Small Lot Residential Neighborhood. These areas provide opportunities for a lower density than pre -
WWII or neo- traditional neighborhood living. These areas include detached single - family residential
uses in post -WWII subdivision developments which range in density from 0.5 dwelling units per acre to 3
dwelling units per acre. Zoning Districts: R -10; R -15; R -20; Entranceway Special Use; Mixed
Residential Special Use; Residential Special Use
Medium - Density Residential. These areas include existing and future areas for development of more
dense residential neighborhoods that provide a diversity of housing types and housing options. Areas
include single - family detached units, mobile homes, townhouses, duplexes, condominiums, apartments,
senior housing, and other multi - family dwelling units. Housing densities should range from 3 -8 dwelling
units per acre. Other types of uses that may occur are schools, parks, and other public facilities. Zoning
Districts: R -10; R -15; R -20; Multi - Family; Mobile Home Park; Entranceway Special Use; Mixed
Residential Special Use; Multi - Family Special Use; Residential Special Use
10
Adopted March 11, 2013
Attached Residential Neighborhoods. These areas include existing and future areas for the
development of dwelling units at more than 8 units per acre, which generally implies attached dwelling
units. This designation may also be used for unique residential settings like retirement villages or nursing
homes. Zoning Districts: Multi - Family; Multi- family Special Use; Entranceway Special Use; Mixed
Residential Special Use; Residential Special Use
Mixed Residential. The dominant land use in any proposed development is expected to be residential
based on square footage of proposed structures. Developments may contain a single or variety of
dwelling types and densities or may integrate a variety of supportive commercial, public and semi -public
uses and open or public space. Small developments that provide only supportive non - residential land
uses in an infill arrangement serving more than 50 dwelling units in a walkable manner may also be
considered. Zoning Districts: R -10; R -15; R -20; Neighborhood Business; Multi - Family; Multi-
family Special Use; Entranceway Special Use; Mixed Residential Special Use; Residential Special
Use; Special Design Special Use
Urban Neighborhood Established residential neighborhoods that pre -date traditional zoning and land
use regulation. Lot sizes and building types are varied and generally developed on a grid street pattern.
The predominant type is generally low density single family housing with occasional business,
government, park, church or school uses. Infill and redevelopment projects should enhance the unique
character of the surrounding neighborhood and be of consistent scale and appearance. The opportunity to
increase the residential density in a compatible manner is encouraged. Zoning Districts: R -10; R -15;
R -20; Neighborhood Business Special Use; Residential Special Use
Education. These areas are currently developed as public schools and their use is not anticipated to
change. Zoning Districts: Office Institutional
Employment areas. These areas include a wide range of business, light industrial, office, research and
development, along with related /support services uses including restaurants, small scale retail and
convenience shopping /services. Buildings and uses will be sited to limit the visual impact of service and
warehousing operations, while still providing convenience for business functionality. These areas are in
prime locations with good access to major road networks (where capacity exists or is planned) and rail if
needed and should be reserved for high return employment generating uses. Zoning Districts: High
Intensity Commercial; Business Park; Economic Development District; Light Industrial, General
Industrial; Entranceway Special Use; Special Design Special Use
Light Industrial. The Industrial classification is applied to areas that currently support industrial uses or
lands that could accommodate a variety of industrial establishments which employ high environmental
quality standards and have minimal impacts on adjacent uses. These areas incorporate larger tracts of
land because of their nature and function. Industrial developments should provide shared access, and
have a coordinated design and a planned layout. Zoning Districts: High Intensity Commercial;
Business Park; Economic Development District; Light Industrial, General Industrial
Mixed Use. These areas a full range of uses well mixed, both vertically and horizontally, much like a
downtown or village center. Multi -story buildings are the norm and will generally contain a vertical mix
of uses. Uses are expected to be roughly balanced between residential, retail, office, service, public and
semi -public uses. Public open space of both urban and green space is also expected to off -set the
intensity of development. Zoning Districts: R -10; Multi- family; Office Institutional; High Intensity
Commercial; Multi- family Special Use; Residential Special Use; Special Design Special Use
Neighborhood Mixed Use. These areas provide opportunities for goods and services that residents of the
district and surrounding neighborhoods need on a daily basis. Lots with this designation will front on an
2

Adopted March 11, 2013
arterial or collector street and back up to single family neighborhoods. Buildings and uses will generally
be in scale with the surrounding neighborhoods and be walkable as well as providing vehicular access.
Sites may be single use or, mixed use, may incorporate residential uses or may be solely residential at a
higher density than the adjacent neighborhood. Zoning Districts: R -10; Multi- family; Neighborhood
Business; Neighborhood Business Special Use; Central Commercial; Central Commercial Special
Use; Multi - Family Special Use; Residential Special Use
Retail Services. These areas focus on retail and commercial uses. They should be located near
residential and employment areas to provide good access to commerce and personal services. Retail areas
can have a range of characteristics depending on their primary markets. The larger scale regional draws
are more automobile - oriented and draw people from throughout the region. These areas should be located
near interstate access, and they may include larger scale stores like "big boxes ", warehouse clubs, and
large specialty retailers. Smaller, accessory uses can also locate in these areas to provide convenience
shopping and include restaurants and smaller specialty retailers; often located on out - parcels or in smaller
shopping centers. Zoning Districts: Neighborhood Business; Neighborhood Business Special Use;
Central Commercial; Central Commercial Special Use; General Commercial; High Intensity
Commercial; Entranceway Special Use; Special Design Special Use
Suburban Office Complex. These areas provide opportunities to for office and employment enterprises
which do not rely on walk -in customers or have a manufacturing component. Businesses may be large or
small but will generally arrange themselves in a campus setting with limited walkability and supporting
services. Developments of this type should be kept small in nature to limit the peak transportation impact
and limited vitality. Zoning Districts: Limited Office; Office Institutional; Business Park; Economic
Development District; Entranceway Special Use; Special Design Special Use
Town Center. This area incorporates the historic structures, civic uses, commercial opportunities, and
the active pedestrian environment that is the downtown core of Hillsborough. The core commercial areas
are to be preserved and enhanced over the long -term and should provide mixed -use opportunities that
combine second -floor residential units with ground floor commercial, office, or institutional uses.
