BACKGROUND: The property proposed to be rezoned is 7.83 acres. It is located off the west side of NC 86 at the end of Skogen Lane. Skogen Lane is an existing paved public road constructed in 1984 with Ruth Woods subdivision. It is located about 500 feet south of the southernmost entrance into Wildwood Subdivision. The 7.83 acres is currently zoned Rural Residential (R-1). The applicant proposes to rezone the property to Residential-4 (R-4). The parcel is undeveloped and the surrounding property to the north and west is undeveloped. The property due north is zoned R-2 and the property to the west is R-1. Stagecoach Run Subdivision is due south and zoned R-1. The eastern property line abuts Ruth Cook Woods and Wildwood subdivisions, both zoned R- 4. 2 The property has a gentle slope from west to east with the highest part of the property being along the western property line and the lowest part being along the eastern property line. The southeast corner of the property has a slope of less than 1%, and the steepest slope on the property is approximately 12.5%in the northwest part of the tract. The average slope of the property is 7%. The Hillsborough Town Engineer has indicated that water and sewer service is available to serve this property. All fees must be paid and connections made at the owner's expense when a development is proposed. The Zoning Ordinance lists criteria which are normally used to determine the application of Residential-4 zoning. The purpose of an R-4 district is to provide locations for low and moderate intensity residential development and supporting recreational, community service and educational uses in areas where urban services are available or are to be provided as part of the development process. The property is located in an area designated as Ten Year Transition in the Land Use Element of the Orange County Comprehensive Plan. Public Hearing Comments A joint public hearing on the rezoning request was held by the Board of Commissioners and Planning Board on May 27, 1997. There were no comments at the meeting. J. D. Cecil and Terry Woods indicated their support for the proposal. A letter supporting the proposal was received from Boone Commercial Properties. They represent Hurley Parrish, owner of the property directly west of the tract proposed to be rezoned. Discussions are underway with Mike and Terry Woods about obtaining access through the rezoned property when it is developed. The County would not be involved in considering development possibilities in the rezoning process. Development design would be considered when a subivision proposal is submitted for the property in the future. On July 3, 1997 the Planning Board unanimously recommended approval of the request for a Zoning Atlas amendment from Rural Residential (R-1)to Residential-4 (R-4)per the attached findings. RECOMMENDATION: The Administration recommends the County Commissioners close the Public Hearing and approve the request for a Zoning Atlas amendment from Rural Residential (R-1)to Residential-4 (R-4)per the Planning Board recommendation.

Access will be provided by the extension of Skogen Lane (an existing 60 foot public road) through Lots #1 and #2 as shown on a plat recorded in plat book 38, page 72 at the Orange County Registry. Bordering the above-mentioned parcel, there are two developments (1) Ruth Woods recorded in plat book 38, page 72 and (2) Wildwood Section One recorded in plat book 37, page 17; both are zoned R-4. Enclosed you will find a letter from the Town of Hillsborough stating that water and sewer services are available to the 7.83 acre parcel. 5 TO: Eddie Kirk, Planner Orange County Planning Department f FROM: Ruth Cook Woods, Owner DATE: May 14, 1997 a SUBJECT: Rezoning Request for Tax Map 4.45..25 iT STATEMENTS OF JUSTIFICATION (1) There is no error in the present zoning. (2) Changes in the area surrounding this site has made it more practical for this parcel in the "transition" designation which allows for the extension of municipal services and also additional density to compliment the Orange County Land Use Plan. Health departments recognize that over a period of years the municipal services prove to be more beneficial than individual septic systems for the public's health and the communities well being. (3) According to the Orange County Land Use map, this parcel of land is located in the 10-year"transition" area. This request corresponds appropriately with the plans for this entire area. (4) Per the subdivision regulations, I, the owner, will be presenting two plans to the Orange County Planning Department before any development of the site occurs. One plan will be prepared according to the Flexible Development plan. The Flexible Development guidelines require an allocation of various types of open space. The guidelines understand that to commit land for recreation and open space it is necessary to have smaller lots and higher density on the balance of the land. Utilizing municipal services is the most efficient way to accomplish this. Because the parcel is in close proximity to Hillsborough and the non-rural character of this site, it appears ideal for transitional or suburban planning which will allow homes to be built within the reach of the average family. Also, see the attached documents from Grange County agencies that assure their services to this development. 6 U 1 aq y W s O cq 4 1 1 }^ 01 7 9 op 0 $ a Z n W Q o m m CL a L -Of All }� lit V 4 6 7 Town of ills gh Sime 1754 March 4, 1997 Ruth Cook Woods 2707 NC 86 South Hillsborough, NC 27278 Re: Property(7.83 Acres ) TM 4.45..25 Dear Ms. Woods: This letter shall serve as notification that the referenced property is "Available" to Town water and sewer service.

Hurley Parrish, owner of the land my firm represents (Map 45 Parcel 3), would like to sell this 119-acre tract. A major limitation to selling this land is lack of access. After the Public Hearing last Tuesday (May 27, 1997), I met with Mike and Terry Woods to discuss their thoughts on access to the Parrish property through the Woods property. Since their current focus is rezoning, they did not have a preliminary subdivision plan that I could study. In a conversation with Emily Cameron of your planning department, she told me that Orange County does not automatically require an adjoining property owner to provide access to a neighboring property during the subdivision review process. It is our desire to work with the Woods so that when they are ready to submit a subdivision plan, it would provide access to the Parrish property. We have made our request known to the Woods family. Ms. Cameron suggested that I write you, since public comments and concerns may still be heard prior to the Planning Board meeting in June. It is our understanding that the subdivision approval process does not require a public hearing; therefore, we thought it prudent to call this to your attention during the rezoning request period. Individual Member Commercial & Industrial Sales-Leasing-Development 21 Page 2 May 30, 1997 We hope that Orange County will give consideration to our need for access through the Woods property. Thank you in advance for studying this situation. For the record, we do support Z-3- 97. Sincerely, 010", Robert P. Boone, Jr. cc: Hurley Parrish Eddie Bland Mike and Terry Woods 2707 NC 86 S.

Searles asked for clarification of the Ten-Year Transition. Kirk explained that transition areas were designated at the time the Land Use Plan was adopted in 1981. The transition areas are lands that were expected to develop at residential densities. MOTION: Walters moved agreement with Staff findings on Article 20. Seconded by Brooks. VOTE: Unanimous.

Th is item is to consider a request to rezone a 6.2 acre lot from R-1 Rural Residential to EC-5 Existing Commercial in Cheeks Township. The proposed rezoning involves a portion of a parcel owned by Thomas and Louise Bradley located at 5419 US 70(Tax Map No.3.28..31), between Frazier Road to the west and Efland-Cedar Grove Road to the east, in the Efland Community. The property owners have requested that a 6.2 acre portion of their property be rezoned to recognize an existing business which was located on the property prior to the zoning of Cheeks Township on October 1, 1984. The current land use in the northern three-acre portion of the requested zoning lot is dedicated to the existing business where sheds are located and rolling stock,equipment,and materials are stored. The southern three-acre portion of the proposed lot lies in pasture. Existing land uses surrounding the proposed zoning lot are: To the north-Mobile home park on the premises and woods To the west -Woods,paswre,and cropland To the south-Pasture and US 70 i>R
