Maps of Strouds Creek Road 2. Strouds Creek Road Recorded Documents 3. NCDOT Petition Information for Strouds Creek Road INFORMATION CONTACT: Abigaile Pittman, 919 - 245 -2567 Tom Altieri, 919 - 245 -2579 Craig Benedict, 919 - 245 -2592 PURPOSE: To make a recommendation to the North Carolina Department of Transportation ( NCDOT), and the North Carolina Board of Transportation (NC BOT), concerning a petition to add Strouds Creek Road to the State Maintained Secondary Road System. BACKGROUND: This request includes a petition for one (1) road addition to the State Maintained Secondary Road System. The road and its respective length and width are as follows: Strouds Creek Road Strouds Creek Road is located off of NC 57, east of NC 86 N in Hillsborough Township (Attachment 1). Sterling Farms Subdivision and Recombination Plat was dedicated on May 23, 2005 (Lots 1 -39, an exempt subdivision with lots > 10,000 acres) and takes access from Strouds Creek Road. The subdivision is zoned Agriculture Residential (AR). Strouds Creek Road was originally a tract created in 1999, intended to accommodate a portion of the Western Bypass, a transportation project previously supported by the Town of Hillsborough. Later that year, the tract was conveyed to the Orange County Board of Education Number of Frontage Pavement /Right -of -way Road Name Length in Miles Lots with Widths in Feet Houses /Other Uses Having Entrances 1 house, Pathways Strouds Creek Road 0.32 Elementary, Village 24/100 -120 Grove Court, and Tumbling Brook Lane Strouds Creek Road Strouds Creek Road is located off of NC 57, east of NC 86 N in Hillsborough Township (Attachment 1). Sterling Farms Subdivision and Recombination Plat was dedicated on May 23, 2005 (Lots 1 -39, an exempt subdivision with lots > 10,000 acres) and takes access from Strouds Creek Road. The subdivision is zoned Agriculture Residential (AR). Strouds Creek Road was originally a tract created in 1999, intended to accommodate a portion of the Western Bypass, a transportation project previously supported by the Town of Hillsborough. Later that year, the tract was conveyed to the Orange County Board of Education P and the deed established it as a "non- exclusive perpetual easement" for the purpose of ingress, egress and construction and maintenance of a non - dedicated access road (Strouds Creek Road) to the Pathways Elementary School. The tract and school access road were subsequently conveyed in fee simple to Waterford Sterling, LLC on November 23, 2004. A Plat for the Sterling Farms Subdivision was recorded May 23, 2005 (Plat Book 97, Page 117), depicting Strouds Creek Road as a primary road serving the subdivision. Waterford Sterling, LLC conveyed this tract containing Strouds Creek Road to the North Carolina Department of Transportation ( NCDOT) via a recorded Deed of Highway Right- of -Way (Record Book 6402, Pages 280 -283 recorded December 15, 2017). This recordation information is provided in Attachment 2. Strouds Creek Road has a length of 0.32 mile. The road has a varying right -of -way width of 100- 120 feet, and a pavement width of 24 feet. The road terminates in a stub halfway across the frontage of the Pathways Elementary School property, with the remaining right -of -way to the west being unimproved. Strouds Creek Road was designed and constructed to public road standards and meets NCDOT maintenance responsibility and ownership criteria, and is now eligible to become a public road in the State System. The unimproved portion of right -of -way to the west is not eligible for the State Maintained System. NCDOT has investigated this request and has submitted a petition to the Board of County Commissioners (BOCC) for its recommendation (Attachment 3). North Carolina General Statute §136 -62 requires that road petitions for additions to the state system be made by the Board of County Commissioners (BOCC). Conclusion The above - referenced application meets the criteria endorsed by the BOCC for recommending acceptance of public roads into the State Maintained System for roads approved through the governing jurisdiction's subdivision process ( NCDOT Subdivision Roads Minimum Construction Standards, January 2010, revised May 2016). FINANCIAL IMPACT: There is no direct financial impact to the County associated with this item. NCDOT will incur additional maintenance responsibilities and costs. SOCIAL JUSTICE IMPACT: The following Orange County Social Justice Goal is associated with this item: • GOAL: CREATE A SAFE COMMUNITY The reduction of risks from vehicle /traffic accidents, childhood and senior injuries, gang activity, substance abuse and domestic violence. • GOAL: ENSURE ECONOMIC SELF - SUFFICIENCY The creation and preservation of infrastructure, policies, programs and funding necessary for residents to provide shelter, food, clothing and medical care for themselves and their dependents. K RECOMMENDATION(S): The Manager recommends that the Board: 1. Forward the Petition for Addition to the State Maintained System to the NCDOT for Strouds Creek Road; and 2. Recommend the Department of Transportation accept the road for maintenance as a State Secondary Road. 00 t <O O10 E= ■■ Strouds Creek Road Vicinity Map 6P,HE LPS 04 SPLIT See St Propose) Z Re 2K F- /p r z A w w Proposed Road Transfer r Map D El! a 9 r a x I I — MIA&V U /_ na w WOOD14 m - — WN N 1 in =1,800 feet ORANGE m Feet COUNTY 0 1,500 Orange County Planning and Inspection BC 3/22/2018 - Strouds Creek Road Proposed Road Transfer 5 Pathways Elementary School K -5 I� Proposed Road Transfer I POINTER pR N 1 in =400 feet u E � 0 Feet Y cola 0 150 300 Orange County Planning and Inspection BC 3/22/2018 my SC ,ACC(- C-LC-I&-CAe-Y H17 lk-s- 1.1 7 Via, 0 L S CIR"HIC SCAT E em ncrN9itta J MMTaI Ar X, ofr, w JDYCE M.
