BACKGROUND: In January, a committee appointed by the County and Town Board of Commissioners completed its work to develop a master plan for the Fairview Public Campus. This title was used to reflect the fact that the land involved in the master plan included both the proposed Fairview Park site, which includes a few existing facilities, but also the County Public Works site and a proposed land swap to accommodate the Town of Hillsborough Public Works operation as well. The primary focus for the committee, in terms of detail and attention, was the proposed second phase of Fairview Park, but general conceptual uses for the remainder of the public lands were also addressed. Together, the Fairview Public Campus site comprises 92 acres. From west to east, this includes a 41-acre parcel owned by the County that contains an old playground and baseball field (which underwent improvements in the late 1990's), a 25-acre property owned by the Town, and the 26-acre County Public Works site. A Memorandum of Agreement between the County and Town was adopted in 2004 (attached), to enable master planning of the entire site regardless of ownership. The attached master plan report outlines the process that was used by the committee to develop a master plan between October 2005 and January 2006. The committee followed the standard park design process of learning about the site through a site visits and an Opportunities and Constraints report, but augmented this with information specific to Fairview and the site conditions. The committee then brainstormed the types of facilities needed for the community, prioritized these desired facilities, and engaged in a design charette to physically plan the facilities on the site base map. The results of the design charette were then used to tweak and revise the draft master plan until it was agreed to on January 19th. The master plan 2 " was briefly addressed at the joint meeting of the Town and County Boards of Commissioners on February 23rd. In general, the master plan identified by the committee focuses facilities into three "pods" of activities. This "pod" approach was necessitated by the existence of large portions of the site that were unsuitable for park use due to former landfilling activities (the committee did make recommendations on what to do with these areas in the interim, as noted below). For the "eastern pod" or the Public Works portion of the site, footprints for expected future buildings consistent with County and Town plans were incorporated. The most usable portion of the site, for a variety of reasons, was the southernmost area or"southern pod". This area also contains a stand of mature hardwoods, the most significant on the site, and the master plan strives to protect a sizable portion of these hardwoods while accommodating facilities (some of which would be "tucked" into the woods). The committee recommendations for the master plan included the following: Most of the park facilities would be in the "southern pod" of the site: • Two lighted basketball courts, • A full-size youth baseball/softball field, • A playground • Picnic shelter with concessions bay and possibly restrooms • Tennis courts, and • Parking areas (larger area at terminus of entry road, smaller community lot along Torain Street) For safety and pedestrian access, walking trails of approximately %2 mile would be designed to connect the pods of activity, in particular the southern pod of park activity above with the "western pod" which includes: ❑ The existing community policing station, • Parking area, • A new playground (to replace the old structure), • A trail connection to the southern pod, and • A possible future Town community center (footprint only) The "eastern pod" includes the ❑ Existing Public Works, ❑ the proposed land swap for the Town Public Works and ❑ Two outlines of possible future County buildings. The main vehicular entry to the park would be via an extension of the Public Works Drive through this part of the campus. This provides access to the signalized intersection at NC 86 and NC 57. In addition, pedestrian access from the Fairview community was a point of great emphasis, and there are several points where the park can be accessed by pedestrians from Rainey Avenue, Torain Street and across from Homemont Avenue. In addition to these recommended facilities (some of which would be deferred to a future phase, due to funding constraints), the committee made the following additional findings: ❑ The former landfill areas on the northern part of the site should be maintained in grass and available for,informal use such as bird-watching, dog-walking and an open meadow. • 3 The cost of mitigating the landfill activities in this area to make them useful for facilities would have likely taken the entirety of the park budget or more, and so this is recommended until such time as other opportunities arise. However, there may be environmental education opportunities in conjunction with the former landfill. • There was interest in a possible community room for future phases of the park as funds may permit. It was noted that grant sources may exist to help construct some of these facilities or help mitigate the landfill areas. • The committee requested that a copy of the master plan be posted at the Community Policing Station once adopted by the Boards, to provide community information on planned facilities. The committee recognized from the outset that facilities proposed would exceed available funds ($850,000 from the 2001 Parks and Open Space bond), but as with other projects the group was encouraged to think creatively about the desired eventual park design. The committee did list their top priorities for facilities as: 1. Basketball courts 2. Youth baseball/softball field 3. Playgrounds 4. Picnic shelter The Town of Hillsborough will be considering the master plan on May 8th. It is anticipated that the Town may request a clarification about possible future expansion of the proposed Town Public Works operation into the hardwood forest area as part of the "southern pod". Once the master plan has been agreed to, the Town and County will need to formalize the planned land swap and address any operational issues (a memorandum of agreement regarding operation and maintenance has been proposed). Once this is completed, the pre- construction phase of the park may begin, followed by solicitation of construction bids (and decisions on facility construction priorities based on cost) and construction of the park. Staffs current informal timetable for park construction estimates that the land swap, MOA for operations and construction documents and bid solicitation could all occur before the summer of 2007, with construction beginning in summer/fall 2007 (subject to change based on the time for completion of these steps). FINANCIAL IMPACT: The 2001 Parks and Open Space bond allocated $850,000 for Fairview Park, Phase II. The proposed park as designed in the master plan is estimated to be in excess of$1.4 million, requiring prioritization of facilities to be built in Phase 2 when construction bids are received. The master plan was developed with this prioritization anticipated. RECOMMENDATION(S): The Manager recommends that the Board receive the master plan and discuss the proposal, providing direction to staff on needed changes and the other actions needed for this project (land swap, operations and maintenance agreement). If ready, the Board may wish to adopt the master plan, with changes as identified. Si . - �� D�u,NGE CWNry PECficmpN 8.PARKS OEPARiMETif:.- s� � s WI I s Background Orange County and the Town of Hillsborough own two adjacent tracts (67 acres total), which have long been identified as lands for a Fairview community park in northern Hillsborough. In addition, Orange County owns an adjacent 26 acres that includes the County's Public Works facility. The parr site is identified in both the County and Town comprehensive plans. In 2004, the County and Town agreed to work together to create a master plan for the entire 93-acre site by adopting a Memorandum of Agreement (MOA) along these lines, reflecting both the existing and planned uses on the Public Works site and potential future uses for a park. The MOA may be found as Appendix 1 to this report. Additional information regarding the site characteristics and history of activity at the Fairview lands may be found in the Challenges and Opportunities report created as part of the Master Plan effort (Appendix 2). In October 2005, an appointed Fairview Public Campus Master Plan Committee began work to develop a proposed Master Plan. Over the next four months the Committee met on four occasions to create this report and plan. Site Analysis / Opportunities & Constraints Report At the initial meeting of the Committee, a report on the aspects of the site in question was presented by staff. This Opportunities and Constraints report evaluated the natural and cultural features present, the history of landholdings and land use pattern, as well as an overview of zoning and other planning issues (please see Appendix 2). The park site (which includes a few existing facilities, such as a playground) lis located in the Fairview community on the north side of Hillsborough. Adjacent land uses include single-family residential lots to the south, west and north. The Orange County Public Works facility is located on the eastern part of the total site, and it is adjacent on the east to lots (some of which are undeveloped) fronting on NC 86. The property is located just outside of the Hillsborough town limits, but within the Town's extraterritorial jurisdiction (ETJ) for planning and permit approval. The Town's Vision 2010 land use plan identifies the area as "Mixed Use Residential," with a smaller area Institutional Activity Area. The zoning for the property is Office/Institutional (OI), which permits parks, government facilities and a variety of other uses. The Public Works tract does have water and sewer service, although it is primarily sized to serve the existing uses. The site is not in a water supply 1 watershed but is within the Neuse River Basin, so special Neuse River Basin rules apply which require vegetated stream buffers. Stream segments were identified prior to the design that would require protection. A cultural and archaeological survey was conducted in March 2005. The survey identified one previously unrecorded site that was not deemed significant. One area on the site was recommended to have further survey work if active land- disturbing activities occur. A topographic survey was also conducted which identified trees of 18-inch caliper and greater, and this was used in the design. Soils through the site are largely Georgeville, Herndon and Enon type, although much of the westernmost County parcel was covered with topsoil in the former landfill areas. The westernmost tract, owned by the County, features large former landfilled areas to the north and northwest part of the property. These areas have been covered with dirt and now are grassy with low shrubby vegetation. Groundwater monitoring wells are located north and south of the stream, which bisects the site. Some of the landfill materials are exposed but hidden from view under dense trees and shrubs. A baseball field in this area was built in 1999, although it is no longer in active use. The northern edge of the property has a number of piles of domestic trash. The southern part of the site includes young hardwood forest (40-50 years old) in an area that appears to retain water during wet seasons. The middle tract, owned by the Town, has a gravel road to the north that is accessed from the County Public Works property. A north-south road divides the Town parcel from the County tract described above. The northern one-third of this Town tract is a large open area where the Town stockpiles storm debris and yard waste. The middle one-third of the site has mature hardwoods and slopes dropping 25 feet down to an unnamed stream. Pine woods are located close to the Public Works facility. The southern one-third of the property has the highest elevation with a mature oak-hickory hardwood forest, with some trees 60-80 years old. This area provides wildlife habitat and features red and white oaks, hickories, tulip poplar and beech trees. The easternmost property, the Public Works site, is partially developed and houses the County Public Works administrative building, Motor Pool garage and areas of storage and parking. An entry road at the signalized intersection of NC 86 and NC 57 runs east to west, before turning north into the developed part of the site. Future plans are to locate other County facilities on the undeveloped portion of this site, and the location of the Town of Hillsborough Public Works been proposed for land owned by the County south of the entry road. 2 Committee Meetings and the Design Process In its four meetings, the Master Plan Committee has strived to be efficient and yet diligent in approaching the development of recommendations in a stepwise fashion. Prior to the committee's formation, a preliminary concept plan outlining the general locations of different uses was created to help guide the process. This, in conjunction with the Memorandum of Agreement, was used to create the design parameters. The following table summarizes the activities of the committee meetings.

The "western pod"is located adjacent to the existing community policing station and is adjacent to Rainey Avenue. The "eastern pod" contains the County Public Works site and future Town Public Works site, along with other planned future County facilities. The reason for the "pod" design approach is explained in the rationale section on page 6. After considering all of the above information and discussing the possibilities, the Committee recommends the following actions as facility improvements for Phase 2 of the park: 1. That the following facilities be constructed as Phase 2 of the Fairview Park as the top priorities (as shown on the attached Master Plan map on page 4). These facilities are listed in priority order, with the understanding that some facilities may need to be deferred based on available funds: • Two hard-surface lighted basketball courts, located the "southern pod. " • A full-size youth baseball/softball field, located in the southern part of the site. • Two new playgrounds, one near the new ballfield in the "southern pod, " and a replacement playground in the "western pod " near the existing structure and police station. • A picnic shelter with concessions bay (and possible restrooms), located near the new ballfield in the "southern pod" • Walking trails of approximately 1/2 milein total, with a main trail connection between the ballfield ("southern pod") and the police station / playground ("we stern pod"). There would also be a trail around the new ballfield, with spur to the southern parking lot and Torain 5 iC Street, and a connection to Rainey Avenue at Homemont Avenue. • Three tennis courts, located adjacent to the new ballfield. • A volleyball court, adjacent to the existing ballfield While not a park facility per se, a main parking lot and access road is also proposed from the east and the NC 86 / NC 57 intersection. A smaller parking lot would be located on Torain Street, and the existing parking at the "western pod" police station/playground would also be retained. 2. It is proposed that the former landfill areas on the northern part of the site be maintained in grass and allowed to be used informally for non-structured activities (dog-walking, open meadow, bird-watching). 3. Opportunities for integrating environmental education and habitats in conjunction with the former landfill should be considered, including signage. 4. Interest exists in both a community room and use of the former landfilled areas for subsequent phases of the park as opportunities arise and Town/County funds permit. 5. The Town and County may wish to pursue additional funding through grants (Parks and Recreation Trust Fund, US tennis Association, for example) and future bonds, to enable the construction of more facilities at the park. 6. Once the master plan is finalized and a construction schedule is identified, a copy of both should be placed at the Fairview Community Policing Substation for community information. A sign noting "Future Site of Fairview Park" would also be helpful. 7. The facilities planned for the "eastern pod" (the Public Works and County Facility portions of the site) have been sketched in 6 on the master plan, as per the Committee's charge. It is our understanding the exact location of these future activities will be addressed at a subsequent time. Master Plan Rationale As the master plan design unfolded, the Committee became aware that the majority of the proposed activity would need to be located in two "pods" of the park. This was made apparent by the uncertainty surrounding use of the former landfilled areas and the existing plans for the County and municipal future uses on the eastern part (eastern pod) of the site. Therefore, the facilities were designed to avoid these areas, work around the existing stream buffer, and try to protect as much of the mature hardwood forest in the southern part of the site as possible. However, the remaining best usable land was largely located in the "southern pod" near the hardwoods area. The master plan sites most of the facilities of the park in this area, while preserving a block of the hardwoods. The design attempts to keep as much of this area intact as possible, and sites only a picnic shelter and playground (which can be nestled among the trees). The larger facilities are located to the north and west of the best part of the hardwoods. Specimen trees of large caliper or age were also protected. The retention of this forested area will also serve as a buffer for residents along Torain Street. The Town of Hillsborough plans to construct a 10,000 to 12,000 square foot Public Works/Motor Pool facility on its designated site (generally the southwest corner of the County Public Works property, which would be transferred to the Town). Also to be included on the site is 7,000 to 8,000 square feet of covered storage facilities. The Town plans to locate its facilities on the western portion of the site with the intent to leave enough acreage for potential future expansion. The second pod of activity is smaller and would be located near the existing Hillsborough Community Policing Station. The group recognized that there is an arbor and history of using this area, termed the "western pod", as a gathering spot, and while the available or usable land is limited, some facilities would be retained here. These facilities are also easily accessed from Rainey Avenue. To facilitate greater accessibility between the two pods of park activity, a connector trail is proposed that offers a direct way of moving from the "western pod" (police station/picnic/playground area) to the "southern pod" (ballfield and other facilities). This 1000-foot trail also allows persons entering the park from either Torain Street or Rainey Avenue to access the other portion of the park. In addition to this trail, trails around the ballfiield and a connector trail to the intersection of Rainey and Homemont Avenue are also reflected. Thus, pedestrians could enter the park from Rainey Avenue, Torain Street or Homemont Avenue, as well as from other intersections with Rainey Avenue. 7 �a Access for non-pedestrians would come via three possibilities. The primary entrance for persons coming to the park from outside of Fairview would be via an extension of the existing Public Works Drive. This road would be continued west and then curve northwest into the main parking area of the park (adjacent to the ballfield and large "southern pod"). This will discourage park traffic from outside of the neighborhood from putting more vehicles on community streets to reach the park. For persons driving from within Fairview, there are two parking opportunities — the existing lot off Rainey Avenue at the "western pod," and a new small lot along Torain Street near the ballfield and "southern pod." The committee remains interested in the future possibilities for the northern (former landfilled) portion of the site, but understands that addressing the actions needed to make this area usable might siphon away some or all of the funds to build the park. The focus of the master plan is thus to create a design that provides for good pedestrian and vehicular access to the park, using the best areas for facilities and leaving the uncertain open areas for future consideration. It is proposed that the former landfill areas (shown as open lands on the master plan) be planted in grass for now, to provide an open meadow area, with birdboxes and areas for unstructured activities (such as dog-walking, bird- viewing and other non-facility use). In designing the park, the group developed a list of possible facilities and then selected preferred facilities based on community needs and interests, as well as cost estimates for the facilities. The cost estimates used in this effort, and the priority listing, are shown as Appendix 3. The budget for the park is $850,000, and the Committee attempted to design a park in this range. CONCLUSION Citizens in Fairview have looked forward to the creation of the community park at this site for many years. The Committee has attempted to design a park within the parameters of the group's charge. There were a number of limitations that affected the flexibility for park design, largely due to the former landfilled areas and the challenges of retaining the needed lands for future County/Town use and protecting the mature hardwood areas and a buffer along the southern boundary. Given these constraints, and the stream buffer, the areas that remained for potential park use were limited and led to the "pod" design approach - to attempt to make the most out of the areas of the site that were usable. The pod design also helps promote pedestrian access to different portions of the site, and directs traffic to the park away from the residential streets in Fairview. 8 i3 The Committee thanks the Orange County and Town of Hillsborough Boards of Commissioners for the opportunity to develop this master plan design, and eagerly looks forward to seeing Fairview Park come to fruition. In this spirit, the Fairview Master Plan Committee commends this report to the Town and County Boards of Commissioners.

PROCESS FOR PLANNING & DESIGN OF PARK, COUNTY PARKS OPERATIONS BASE AND TOWN AND COUNTY PUBLIC WORKS FACILITIES The process for planning and designing the Fairview park site, County Parks Operations Base and Town and County Public Works facilities will encompass the land currently owned by both the Town and County in the immediate vicinity of the Fairview park site (as shown in the map in Attachment 1). Together these parcels represent approximately 92 acres and are hereinafter collectively referred to as "the Site." The Planning for the Fairview Park and County Parks Operations Base will focus on the park, but will also consider and address, to the extent possible, the interests of both the Town and County to locate additional, facilities on the property, such as the County Parks Operations Base and Town and County Public Works facilities. The County and Town will appoint, as soon as practical, a Master Plan Committee to develop recommendations for the design and use of the Site. The Committee shall be appointed by approval of both County and Town Boards of Commissioners, and shall consist of the following charge and membership: 2 ADOPTE 0 A. CHARGE to the Master Plan Committee: Develop a Master Plan for the Site, within the framework of any operating guidelines or other instructions as offered by the elected Boards,to include the following: 1. A map of the Site with the design for the Fairview Park, including proposed buildings, playing fields, roads, parking, trails, other facilities, amenities, infrastructure locations, vegetative cover, hydrology and other components that are commonly included in a park or public facility concept plan. The map of the Site shall include existing and planned buildings of the County Parks Operations Base and the Town and County Public Works facilities. Planning of the County Parks Operations Base and the Town and County Public Works facilities is limited to the location of buildings,roads,parking and other infrastructure. 2. A written report outlining the proposed uses, the design rationale, description of work group process, natural and cultural features, means of soliciting community input, the potential future phases, and construction cost estimates. If needed, the report should also include a phasing plan, showing how the Fairview Park and other public facilities could be developed over time in a cost-efficient fashion. The report should include a recommendation concerning which facilities should be constructed, utilizing the funds remaining from the $850,000 allocated for the project after the planning, design, and survey work (estimated to cost $200,000) have been completed. 3. The report should address and recognize the limitations imposed by safety considerations caused by the Fairview park site's previous use for waste-disposal, as addressed in part by a geo-technical report prepared in 1999 ("Report of Geotechnical Evaluation, Closed Hillsborough Landfill Site, July 19, 2000"). Further recommendations may be needed to address phased remediation of portions of the Fairview park site. 4. The Master Plan should address co-location of existing and future public facilities and provide for a synergy and compatibility of uses between park functions and other public functions wherever possible. The rights of neighbors should be respected by buffering incompatible uses. 5. The Committee should review the "old" 1988 Fairview Park Concept Plan as part of the Master Plan and determine its validity, if any. 2.

Background Orange County and the Town of Hillsborough own two adjacent tracts (67 acres total), which have long been identified as a Fairview community park. The site is located just outside the Hillsborough town limits and one-third mile from the intersection of NC 86 and US 70 Bypass. Orange County owns an adjacent 26 acres (3 adjoining tracts) that includes the County's Public Works facility. Maps are provided as Figures 1 and 2. The Town once owned all 67 acres and used a portion of the site as the town landfill. A review of old aerial photos (1938— 1993) indicates the earliest use of the landfill was sometime between 1938 and 1955 (Attachment 1). The 1955 photo shows what appears to be a small dumpsite accessed from the old McAdams Road (or "Yanceyville Road"), which once paralleled today's NC 86 north of Hillsborough. [McAdams Road was abandoned sometime between 1955 and 1966.] By 1966 the dumpsite was larger and was accessed from a new entrance road (off Torain Street), which today is "Fairview Park Road" and runs along the line of the Town and County tracts. The landfill was closed in the early 1980s in conjunction with a Northern Fairview community revitalization project. In 1983, the County purchased 42 acres containing most of the former dumpsite for a reported $70,000, and initiated plans for a new County park. A master site plan for an "Orange County Community Park" was completed by L.E. Wooten & Company in 1986. That plan showed a proposed main entrance to the park from Torain Street, an 84-car parking area, two baseball fields (one lighted), one soccer field, a fitness trail, a picnic area with shelter and grills, and a playground with"tot lot" and parking for 8 cars (Attachment 2). The 1983 park master plan was for the County tract only. The County built a playground and large parking area for the park in 1989-90. Over the next 12 years, however, several storm events helped to delay further development of the park: a tornado (11/92), Hurricane Fran (9/96), severe wind storm (5/00), and the more recent ice storms. Tree limbs and other wood debris were hauled to the County. property and deposited in the parking area for temporary storage and handling. Some of the material was chipped and removed or buried on site. Following Hurricane Fran (1996), the Town of Hillsborough also began hauling storm debris and yard waste for temporary storage at the northern end of the Town's adjacent property. In 1999-2000 a Fairview resident (James Stewart) constructed a baseball field on the County tract. The ball field, known as the "Field of Dreams," was built over a portion of the former landfill northeast of the playground. Local teams played there for two or three years until concerns were raised over the potential adverse affects to the health and safety of the users of the field. The County hired Trigon Engineering to conduct an environmental/geo-technical analysis of the property. The study found that surface soils in the Fairview Park area have naturally occurring levels of arsenic (i.e., not from the landfill) that exceed state and federal standards for ingestion, but not for exposure. The County concluded that the ball field was safe from an environmental exposure standpoint and further developed the ball field, while assuming field maintenance responsibilities.

Cultural and Archaeological Survey Environmental Services, Inc. completed a cultural and archaeological survey of the property in March 2005. The goal was to identify and assess the significance of any cultural resources located in the areas currently being considered either for park expansion or for the Town's proposed new public works facility: Areas 1-3 on Figure 5. The survey identified one previously unrecorded archaeological site (prehistoric), but it was not considered to contain significant information about the prehistory or history of the region, nor is it eligible for the National Register of Historic Places. The consultant recommended that development of Areas 1 and 2 be allowed to proceed without concern for impacts to significant cultural resources. They noted, however, that the Town owned portions of Area 3 which were investigated at a reconnaissance_ level have the potential to contain intact cultural resources and recommended an intensive surface and subsurface survey prior to around-disturbing activities. According to the preliminary concept plan approved jointly by the Town and County, Area 3 is currently proposed for low-impact recreation and open space, which should not involve any significant ground-disturbing activities. If that changes, and more active, land-disturbing uses are considered for this area, then the Town (and County) should consider this recommendation to conduct further surveys. A topographic survey with identification of trees 18-inch caliper and greater was also conducted, and the results of this survey have been incorporated into the findings below. V. Property Description The following is a more detailed description of the Fairview Park property. The 67-acre site is a combination of woodland and open/developed area, which includes existing park facilities, a former landfill, and wood debris storage areas. The property is described in two tracts: the County-owned portion (County Tract) and the Town-owned portion (Town Tract). Topography and soils are identified on Figures 6 and 7. A. County Tract (42 acres) The County portion of the park property contains the existing playground and picnic facilities, baseball field, Town of Hillsborough police substation, and the vast majority of Hillsborough's former sanitary landfill, which was closed in the early 1980s. 11 th r.` Page 3 of 9 Fairview Park Opportunities and Constraints The southern portion of the tract includes a forested area (-8 acres) with 40- to 50-year- old hardwood trees. The understory is fairly open and absent of invasive exotic plant species. The USGS quad map identifies a small wetland within this wooded area. There may once have been a wetland (or pond), but today there is no open water or wetland vegetation. A small stream flows north from this area (parallel with Rainey Ave.) toward the playground. This low-lying area may be suitable for walking trails, but probably not suitable for active recreation fields. Finally, a buried telephone cable runs along an easement located just inside and parallel to the southern property boundary. m yYpepe .y. •7 i!Y• �+Y Forested bottomland in southwest corner of property Southern portion of former landfill(facing north); road dividing County/Town tracts at upper right. Topoarabhv and Soils The County Tract is comprised of mostly Georgeuille and Herndon B/C soils much of which was covered over by fill material when this site was a landfill. When the landfill was closed (1982-83) it was covered with clay fill dirt of variable depths. The former landfill includes some open pockets (subsurface) where the land was not fully compacted. Those pockets cause the land to be unstable and hold water. A small stream bisects the former landfill area and carries runoff eastward and through the adjacent Town tract. The landfill did not extend to the northwestern, wooded portion of the tract where Herndon B/C soils drain to two small streams. These soils have medium to high potential for recreation uses. The southern portion of the tract is comprised of Lignum and Enon soils, which have fairly good potential for recreational use. Some of that area, however, appears to be bottomland and may be wet during part of the year. A small stream runs along the western boundary and may spill into this adjacent low area. That stream flows from the southwest part of the tract, past the playground area, then joins another stream and turns east and across the property. Page 5 of 9 Fairview Park Opportunities and Constraints 0 The southern 1/3 of the property has the most mature and beautifully wooded section of the entire park property. The 60- to 80-year-old oak-hickory forest has an open understory devoid of invasive exotic plants, and highly suitable for nature trails and other low-impact activities. Major canopy trees include red and white oaks, hickories, tulip poplar and American beech. This forest and other wooded sections of the Town property provide numerous benefits, including habitat for wildlife and native plants, and protection of water quality by filtering out sediment and other pollutants that may run off the property (and from the Public Works facility) before entering the adjacent stream—a Stroud's Creek headwater stream and Eno River tributary. Toyographv and Soils The Town Tract consists of mostly Georgeville B/C and Enon B soils below mature woodlands. These well-drained soils have medium to high potential for recreational uses, with slope in the middle of the tract being the primary limitation. The fairly level northern 1/3 of the property is primarily Georgeville B soil (2-6% slope) that drains to the south into the aforementioned creek (with Tatum D soils) and north into another creek located just outside the northern property boundary. A small portion of the former landfill extends into the northwest corner of the tract. Some of the landfill material is still evident above the ground surface, although hidden under the tree cover. The sloped middle 1/3 of the tract has Georgeville C soils (6-10% slope), which drain north to an unnamed creek that flows through the tract and eventually to the Eno River. The southern 1/3 of the tract features a fairly level plateau with Enon B soils (2-6% slope), which are suitable for some recreational uses but not for intensive development. This wooded area is "high and dry" with no water features. a.s ,Y {{�• is •i 7 , R I y, 1 Creek flowing through middle forested section of Town property (Photo from connector road;stream flows under road,thru culvert) Mature hardwood forest in southern section of Town property (Photo taken in early spring) Page 7 of 9 Fairview Park Opportunities and Constraints VI. Opportunities and Constraints The following are development opportunities and constraints identified thus far: Existing and potential assets A. Access—The park is highly accessible to residents in the Fairview community who can easily walk, bike or drive to the park. The park's location near the major intersection of US 70 and NC 86 also makes it accessible to other Hillsborough and County residents by automobile or public transportation. The existing Public Works Drive leads to a signaled intersection with NC 86 and NC 57. B. Existing facilities—There is an existing children's playground and picnic area in a shady grove of trees with parking (although this area may need improvements). C. Mature hardwood forest—The forested areas are suitable for nature trails, environmental education, and other low-impact uses. Perimeter forest areas will help to buffer the adjacent private properties from future park activities. Existing and potential constraints A. Landfill—the former landfill areas pose an assortment of site limitations, ' S including the unstable ground surfaces, areas of exposed trash and debris: and the public perception of potential or actual health impacts from methane gas and elevated arsenic levels. The cost of remediation for those areas is uncertain but could be very substantial (some estimates have ranged from $2 to $12 million). B. Streams—small streams flow through the park property; a 65-foot-wide ��`cy►�a�� undisturbed buffer is required along both sides of the streams. 5 �� 5C. Access— the proposed Torain Street main entrance is not easily accessible to 0\ people outside of the Fairview community; it may be prudent to create a new park entrance from NC 86 and through the County Public Works property. �1 06 D. Noise—there is potential for noise and future expanded activity at the adjacent ,�Orr� County public works facility and proposed co-located Town public works facility. V4 E. Limited Suitable Acreage —Based on the current and former uses, the amount of land available for park and other public purposes may be limited. VII. Preliminary Concept Plan Representatives from the Orange County Board of Commissioners and the Town of Hillsborough Commissioners met in 2003 and 2004 to initiate a process for Fairview Park expansion. Over time, a memorandum of agreement was created outlining the nature of the proposed project on both County and Town lands and the process for park 5 planning. Both boards signed the agreement in October and November 2004. As a part of this a Preliminary Concept Plan for Fairview Park was also developed and 1 ' adopted. The Preliminary Concept Plan (Figure 8) is the guiding conceptual map or ems' "blueprint" for the future park design.
