PURPOSE: To receive citizen comment on a Class A Special
Use Permit Application for non-residential use of
a historic structure.
BACKGROUND: This Special Use Permit Application is submitted
by Laura Baldwin to be allowed to continue the
operation of Reba and Roses gift and garden
shop/greenhouse at 112 Baldwin Road. The business
is located in a former farm building on a historic
property known as Sunnyside. The non-residential
use of the property is currently in violation of
the Zoning Ordinance. However, non-residential
use of historic structures is allowed with
approval of a Special Use Permit.
The Baldwin property is located on the northwest
corner of St. Mary's Road and Baldwin Road. It
consists of two parcels (5.14. .21 & 21A) totalling
56.24 acres. Reba and Roses is located on a five-
acre portion of lot 21. The property is zoned
Agricultural Residential. Other features of the
property include the historic residence and
smokehouse, and a chestnut tree orchard. There are
also beef cattle raised on the property.

Historical Significance of Property
Sunnyside was purchased by Captain John Berry in
1845. It was enlarged and remodeled by Captain
Berry and is now a 2 1/2 story frame house known
for its double brick chimneys on each gable side.
The house now belongs to Laura Baldwin, and has
been in her family since the 19201s. Uses of the
property since the 1920 's have included, farming
of cotton, corn and lumber, and the raising of
chickens and quail. The home has been identified
by the County Commissioners as a site of historic
significance in An Inventory of Sites of
Cultural, Historic, Recreational, Biological and
Geological Significance in the Unincorporated
Portion of Orange County". The North Carolina
Division of Archives and History recognizes
Sunnyside and has indicated that further study
regarding its eligibility for the National
Register of Historic Places is warranted (see the
attached letter) .
Reba and Roses is located in a farm building
previously used to raise chickens and quail, and
is located several hundred feet to the rear of the
residence.
Surrounding Land Uses
Properties to the north, east, and south are zoned
AR Agricultural Residential. Property to the west
is zoned PD-H-R2 Planned Development District-
Rural Residential (Scotswood) and is designated in
the Land Use Element as 10-Year Transition Area.
Access
Access to Reba and Roses is provided from Baldwin
Road, an existing unpaved State-maintained
secondary road. Traffic generation estimates
submitted by the applicant, based on use in
previous years, indicated that traffic volumes
range from a low of 4 to 5 trips per day in
January, February, July, August and November, to
30 trips per day on week-ends in the remaining
months. Exceptions would be special events which
may occur three or four times per year, when
traffic could increase to about 50 trips per day.
By comparison, a single-family residence generates
an average of 10 trips per day.
On February 21, 1995, the Board of Commissioners
approved the Preliminary Plan for Black Walnut
Farm, located on the east side of Baldwin Road
121
adjacent to Reba and Roses. Due to the
anticipated traffic impacts of the proposed 25-lot
subdivision, The subdivision approval included a
provision that Baldwin Road be realigned to the
east, if possible, to connect with a realignment
of Lawrence Road. In the event that Baldwin Road
and Lawrence Road could not be connected, then the
owner of Black Walnut Farm would be required to
dedicate and pave a Baldwin Road to the east of
its existing location. If Baldwin Road were
realigned, then Reba and Roses could continue to
be accessed by the existing road, which would
function as a private drive, or access could be
provided directly from the realigned Baldwin Road.
RECOIMNDATION: Article 8.4.3 of the Orange County Zoning
Ordinance requires that the Zoning Officer's
recommendation be presented to the Planning
Board within 45 days of receipt of an
application. The 45-day period may be
extended up to 60 days with the written
consent of the applicant. The public hearing
is the time scheduled for presentation of the
Zoning Officer's recommendation. The
Planning Board must submit its recommendation
to the Board of Commissioners within 60 days
of the meeting at which the Zoning Officer's
recommendation is submitted.
Zoning Officer Recommendation
Provided that the County Commissioners find
in the affirmative, the Zoning Officer
recommends approval of the request subject to
the following conditions:
1 . Roads, parking areas, walkways,
utilities, and landscaping shall be
maintained as shown on approved plans.
2. The final site plan and narrative of the
project are to be incorporated herein
and made a part of this Special Use
Permit. Copies of the final site plan
and narrative are to remain on file with
the Planning Department.
Administration Recommendation
The Administration recommends that the
proposed Class A Special Use Permit
Application be returned to the Board of
Commissioners for a decision after receiving
a recommendation from the Planning Board.

RE: "Sunnyside" (John Berry-Baldwin Farm)
Orange County
Dear Ms, Baldwin:
At your request, the above-referenced property was presented to the North
Carolina National Register Advisory Committee (NRAC) at its meeting in Raleigh
on October 14, 1993, for a preliminary assessment of the property's
eligibility for listing in the National Register of Historic Places. The NR.AC
is a board of professionals and citizens with expertise in history, architec-
tural history, and archaeology, and meets quarterly to advise me on the
eligibility of properties for the -National Register and the adequacy of
nominations.
The committee determined that this property is potentially eligible for the
National Register and warrants further-study--Accordingly, the property has
boon added to the Study List of potential nominations to the National Regis-
ter. Placement on the Study List. is the first stop in the National Register
listing process. Please note that placement on the Study List does not mean
automatic nomination to the National Register. The next step, preparation of
the nomination, must be initiated by you. The enclosed set of National Regis-
ter FaeL Sheets briefly explains the nomination and ].fisting process.
If you wish co have your property nominated, we can provide a list of
qualified private consultants with whom you may contract to prepare the
nomination. Our staff will advise property owners who wish to prepare their
own nominations, but because of the complexity of technical requirements and
standards of documentation, most nominations are prepared by hisrorians or
architectural historians experienced in the nomination process. When a ce.ch-
nically complete and adequately documented nomination is submitted Co this
offico, staff can provide timely review and processing. However, we cannot
rewrite or make substantial revisions to inadequate nominations or provide in-
depth historical research services.

Listing in the National Register is largely an honorary designation. It also
provides a measure of protection from any state or federally funded or
Licensed project that might affect the property. In addition, the Tax Reform
Act of 1986 provides federal income tax incentives for the rehabilitation of
income-producing properties (commercial or residential rental) that are listed
in the National Register. The tax incentive program does not apply to owner-
Occupied private residences. Please note that National Register listing does
not restrict a private owner's use of his or her property.
Please let us know if the ownership of the property changes, i.f it is moved,
or if it is altered in any significant way. If you have questions about the
National Register program, please contact Ms. Linda H. Edmisten, National Reg-
ister Coordinator, Survey and Planning Branch, State Historic Preservation
Office, 109 Z. Jones Street, Raleigh, NC 27601-2807, 919/733-6545.
