PURPOSE: To consider various decisions regarding the proposed Orange County Schools
Middle School #3 site and adjacent properties,
BACKGROUND:
Orange County Schools -Middle School #3
In November 2001, Orange County voters approved the issuance of $18,5 million in general
obligation bonds for the siting and constniction of a new middle school for the Orange County
Schools (OCS). Since that time OCS officials have enlisted the support of Orange County staff
and others to review and assess potentially suitable sites for the new middle school, The Board
of Education has determined that it wishes to build the school on a portion of approximately 67
acres of property located in the Efland area between Interstate 40/85 and West Ten Road,
In June 2003, the Board of Commissioners appropriated funds that allowed the Board of
Education to enter into options to purchase the parcels comprising those 67 acres (and another
33+ acres immediately to the east -that property will be discussed during the second portion of
this abstract). The purchase options for the 67 acres (referred to elsewhere as the Allison and
Daniel properties) expire on March 15, 2004, There is an opportunity to extend these options,
at additional cost. If the purchase options are exercised by March 15, the cost already paid for
those options will be credited against the purchase price.
After appropriating funds for the purchase options, in early October 2003 the BOCC authorized
staff to investigate and pursue certain infrastructure elements in the general area. Those efforts
culminated recently with the approval by the BOCC and the City of Mebane of an interlocal
agreement that will result in water and sewer service being provided to the properties in
question, all of which are located in one of the County's three Economic Development Districts
(EDDs).
In December 2003, the Orange County Board of Education received a report on the preliminary
conceptual site design of the proposed school site from the project architects, Corley Redfoot
and Zack. For the most part, the proposed school will be a prototype based on the Chapel Hill-
Carrbora City Schools' Smith Middle School. The December 2003 concept plan (map
attached) includes a building of approximately 123,000 square feet that would accommodate
700 students with a project budget of $18.5 million and a tentative opening date of Summer
2006. OCS representatives and the architects will make a brief presentation and respond to
questions regarding the proposed school site at this March 4 meeting.
During the past year, the BOCC has extensively discussed the importance of siting, designing,
and constructing new schools in keeping with "smart growth" principles, The proposed OCS
middle school #3 reflects these principles in a number of ways. For example:
1) The use of Smith Middle School as a prototype for OGS middle school #3 could lead to
savings of 1 to 2% in the total project cost.
2) Preliminary school design incorporates energy conservation through daylighting.
3) The school site area is large enough to provide for land banking for future uses.
Additionally, adjacent properties are available that could lead to the development of joint
school-park opportunities. Economies of scale during construction and shared use of
infrastructure (e.g. parking, access, turning lanes, water and sewer facilities, electric
utilities) should lead to financial savings.
4) Land for the building footprint is primarily cleared of trees, so there is limited
encroachment needed of forested areas. Manmade water retention features (ponds)
are available for area irrigation purposes and water quality enhancements.
5) Transportation access to the site along major corridors is readily available. The EDD is
programmed for a critical threshold of activity that would promote park and ride lots and
mass transportation.
Under NCGS §11.5C-426f, a board of county commissioners has the statutory responsibility to
approve the amount to be spent for the purchase of a school site. The total purchase price for
the Allison and Daniel properties is $775,000. OCS has determined that it will only require
approximately 41 acres for the middle school, but there is no provision in the purchase options
far the properties to be divided. Accordingly, on March 1, 2004, the Orange County Board of
Education approved a resolution requesting that the BOCC provide funding for OGS to either
1) purchase the entire 67 acres, 2) purchase 41 acres with the County purchasing the
remainder, or 3) purchase an extension of the options.
Staff recommends that the BOCC approve the attached capital project ordinance appropriating
$775,000 for OCS to acquire the entire Allison and Daniel properties. This amount would
provide more acreage than OCS needs far the school site, and would exceed OCS's anticipated
expenditures for a school site by roughly $250,000. However, the Board of Education and
BOCC can have a subsequent discussion about whether the school board should retain the
acreage not needed for the middle school for future purposes, whether the County should
acquire the unused portion from OCS for County purposes, or whether there should be some
other disposition of the remainder of the property.
Euliss Property
As noted above, OCS purchased options in 2003 not only on the Allison and Daniel properties,
but also on the 33-acre Euliss property located immediately adjacent and to the east of the
Allison and Daniel properties. The Board of Education has determined that it does not need
this property for the middle school site, and by resolution dated March 1, 2004, assigned the
option to purchase that property to Orange County, At the annual planning retreat on January
31, 2004, the BOCC discussed this property and its potential use as the site of a soccer
complex, Staff have prepared an analysis of same of the key features of this site and will
provide an oral report about the property at this March 4 meeting. Various maps and diagrams
of the site are included with this agenda item and will be reviewed during the staff presentation.
Staff believe that the Euliss property is well-suited to serve as a soccer complex and
recommend that the BOCC purchase it using funds available through November 2001 voter
approved bonds for the Soccer Superfund, The attached capital project ordinance will
appropriate $508,500 for the site acquisition,
It should be Hated that vehicular access and water and sewer easements to the Euliss property
across the proposed middle school site may be necessary to improve the Euliss property's utility
as a potential soccer complex. The Orange County Board of Education indicated during its
March 1 deliberations about the middle school site that it would collaborate with the County as
needed to provide appropriate easement access.
FINANCIAL IMPACT: As noted above, the purchase of the middle school site would be
through appropriation to the Orange County Schools of $775,000 in November 2001 voter-
approved general obligation bonds. The purchase of the Euliss property would be accomplished
through appropriation of $508,500 in November 2001 voter-approved general obligation bonds.
RECOMMENDATION(S): The Manager recommends that the Board:
1) receive the presentation on the proposed OCS middle school site from OCS
representatives and the architects;
2) approve the amount to be paid for the school site at $775,000;
3) adopt the accompanying OCS Middle School #3 capital project ordinance;
4) direct staff to work with OCS to schedule discussions about the ultimate disposition of
the approximately 26 acres of the Allison and Daniel properties not needed for middle
school #3;
5) receive the presentation from County staff on its analysis of the Euliss property;
6) direct the Manager, Attorney, and staff to carry out the administrative steps (including
preparation and signing of relevant documents) necessary to purchase the Euliss
property prior to the March 15 option expiration; and
7) adopt the accompanying Soccer Superfund capital project ordinance.

The Board of Cotuity Commissioners has received updates regarding the Orange County
Middle School No..3 site selection process (a 67-acre parcel) consistent with the "Orange County
Policy on Planning and Funding School Capital Projects". Additional property (east ofthe
proposed school) was optioned to afford the Board of County Commissioners the opporhuiity to
examine,joint azid coordinated school-county facilities,
A 33-acre site (known as the Euliss Property) was reviewed. Further research bas been
conducted that addresses certain facets of site selection.
The following subjects are being addressed herein:
A. Site Acreage Availability
B, Transportation Plan Accessibility
C. Public Water and Sewer
D. Environmental Considerations
(Soils, Topography, Natural Areas, Strrearns and Watershed)

Administration, Land Records/GIS and Planning Staff began to refine its seazch in the Efland area.
Since then the Orange County School District has chosen the adjacent site (Allison Owens
Property) to the Euliss Property. The following attributes of site usage feasibility is addressed
herein.

The following analysis is a consideration of
EULISS (WEST TEN ROAD) PROPERTY
I. A. SITE ACREAGE AVAIL ABILITY
1. Public Facilities Acreage Program
The topography and/or enviromrrental constraints of the site cazi affect the usable and
functional parcel size. The potential site on West Ten Road is 3.3 acres, approximately 600' wide
(east-west) and 2400' deep (north-south). This is the entirety of an available site for sale. The site
is south of I-85/I-40, north of West Ten Road, and approximately 1,67 miles from Mt. Willing Road
to the east and 1.4 miles to Buckhorn Road to the west. Access would be from multiple azid
properly spaced access points on West Ten Road coordinated with the proposed school site..
The land is relatively flat (less than 5% slope). An approximately .3-5-acre low area
encumber the northwest corner. The adjacent and western sixty-seven (67) acre parcel is also for
sale that could be combined with this property for joint use by the County, consistent with the
existing Schools and Land Use Councils `Memorandum Of Agreement for Providing Coordinated
Site and Facility Planning' adopted in .June 1999. The site is large enough to accommodate a
variety of parking and athletic fields, orientations and support buildings,
2. Joint Use Opportunities
This site of the 33f acres also has reasonable soil quality characteristics and low slope
topography. This site also has been timbered recently.. The land's dimensions are approximately
600' wide x 2400' deep. A portion of this parcel slopes to the southeast and may not be served
easily by a possible Phase I `backbone' sewer gravity system to the west of the subject primary
parcel. Additional research is necessary as the intended uses and their location on this eastern
parcel would dictate the feasibility and location of buildings. However, a concession, batluoom,
office building, if located in the center of the property, could be readily served. Recreation fields
would not need sewer service in the far eastern sections of the property.
Possible uses could include parks and recreation facilities symbiotically designed with a
school. Future park or school facility barilcing is also a possibility since western county sites in
general have limitations in land use and water and sewer infrastructure,
I. B, TRANSPORTATION PLAN AND ACCESSIBILITY
The sole access to the site will be West Ten Road that is presently a two lane paved road
with a 60' right-of--way. This road is designated as a `collector road' on Orange County's
Transportation Element Functional Classification Plan. A collector road is functionally intended
for higher volumes of traffic The Economic Development District is located in this area, noting
that higher density and intensity could be supported by the roadway system,
The possible entrance on West Ten Road is approximately 1,67 miles from Mt. Willing
Road to the east and 1.4 miles to Buckhorn Road to the west. Both of these roads are also
collectors and have intersections with I-85/I-4Q as well as railroad crossings that are near US-70.
Bus routes and transportation from the south will be from Buckhorn and Mt. Willing Roads.
Buckhorn Road and US-70 have an existing traffic signal and turn lanes. Because of its easy access
to I-85/I-40, northern Chapel Hill and Carrboro can reach this area in 15 minutes,
For access from north of I-85/I-40 people will primarily use Efland Cedar Grove Road to
Mt. Willing Road where there is azi existing traffic signal at the US-70 intersection. Access to the
western sections of the County would likely be from Frazier Road and south to Bucldiorn Road.
Multiple and properly spaced access points to this parcel and the school property would
need to be constructed for separate bus and visitor areas and student drop-offs. The road would
have to be widened in this area with appropriate turn lanes and save conshuction costs because of
,joint use.
~~
I. C. PUBLIC WATER AND SEWER UTILITIES
The site presently has no public water and sewer systems.. Area homes are serviced by
private well and septic systems. The options for public water and sewer provisions were analyzed
as was a consideration of a potential special assessment program. The area is within the Water and
Sewer Management Planning and Boundary Map as Orange County's primary service area. This
means Orange County will determine how utilities are likely to be provided in this area whether it is
of its own sewer facilities extension or by inter-local agreement with other service providers (a City
of Mebane Agreement for a utility service area includes this parcel). Although there are a variety of
options, the focus of utility provision will be on a public water system that can provide an
appropriate allocation of potable water and, as important, the infrastructure to provide fire
suppression pressures and flows.
In summary, public utilities can service this parcel in a period of a few years given that the
"backbone" system is likely to be created with the f rst phase of infrastructure development in the
Economic Development District area associated with the school and EDD initiatives. Grant monies
are available for sewer extension in tlis general area associated with the school and EDD
initiatives. The development of this infrastructure could run concurrent with the development of
the site for building activities which is a customary practice.
I. D. ENVIRONMENTAL. CONSIDERATIONS
1. SOILS
The majority of the site has well drained Georgeville and Herndon soils, which are suitable
for building construction, roads and recreation fields. There is also an area of Orange soils which is
less suitable, but relatively better than Enon and Chewacla soil types. The site has primarily and
relatively good drainage soils as noted on the Soils Map.. Staff'cann answer questions about the uses
of the soil types. There are some soils and seasonal wet conditions with less desirable building
properties along the northwest corner..
J3
2. TOPOGRAPHY
The land is primarily (100%) recently timbered land (less than 3 years). Near the
northwest corner (USGS) perennial "blue line" stream begins on the proposed school site.
The site's topography ranges in elevation from 670' around the midpoint of the parcel to
approximately 685', which is a slope of 1 %,
3. WATERSHED
The subject parcel is within the Upper Eno Watershed -protected. Impervious Surface
Area requirements for this area are 70% for non-residential uses, such as this, when shuctural Best
Management Practices are employed. The size of the site could acconunodate Best Management
Practices for storrnwater and erosion control to promote water quality in the natural slope area near
the northwestern area stream origination.
I. E. LAND USE AND LAND USE C.OMPATIBILtTY
1. LAND USE AND ZONING
The land use in this area pursuant to Orange County's Comprehensive Plan Land Use
Element is an Economic Development District (EDD). The zoning is designated as Economic
Development (EDLPrimary (T-85 Bucldrorn Economic Development District). The permitted use
tables of the Economic Development District manual, permits public schools as a Class A Plamied
Development. This district (including in and around the potential school site) perniits mixed uses.
The mixed-use concept in the Economic Development Dishict could ensure that the `step down'
transition between the intensity of other non-residential uses planned in the EDD and to ensure
compatibility with schools and some higher intensity residential uses..
The volume of traffc linked to a school use and soccer complex is consistent with the traffic
generated and anticipated in an Economic Development District.
2. ADJACENT PROPERTIES
The lands neighboring and facing the proposed project area are mostly undeveloped large
lots. There are some residential dwellings in the area.
NeiQbboring Properties -East
/~
There are three tracts to the east, within the EDD, which aze all completely undeveloped:
a) 37.40 acre tract (as a portion of an 87.40 acre tract which includes property across Highway
85 to the north and across West Ten Road to the south) owned by the Efland Simpson Heirs
(9844264137)
b) 74.02 acre tract owned by the Howard Manning Trustee (984445228.3).
Neighboring Properties -West
Many of the neighboring parcels to the west are similarly undeveloped:
a) 67 acre parcel owned by Owens Allison
b) 19.74 acre parcel owned by Charles Brown (9834955748)

Properties South of Proiect Area, Fronting West Ten Road
The pazcels south of the Buckhhorn/West Ten EDD are generally quite large and undeveloped, but
Yhere are a series of small-lot residences directly across West Ten Road from the proposed site. A
total of I S lots front West Ten road in the area delineated on the attached vicinity map.
l _S
Each of the six smallest lots, which directly face the proposed project area have a residential
dwelling unit:
a) 1.15 acre parcel owned by .Joseph Weaver (9844146112)
b) 1.03 acre parcel owned by Sarah Jacobs (9844144152)
c) 1,01 acre parcel owned by Vicki Williams (9844142185)

The properties east of the small home sites are:
I) 4.44 acre parcel owned by Laura Easterling (9844241110) with alean-to
m) two parcels at the road intersection which are part of the 87.40 acre Efland Simpson Heirs
tract referenced above
n) 185,2 acre parcel owned by William Skinner Trustee (9844433644) which is undeveloped
I. F. SITE ACQUISITION AND DEVELOPMENT COSTS
Site acquisition costs and construction costs (both on and off-site) were considered by the
Orange County School District staff with input from the County Engineer regarding utilities, A
report would be forthcoming at a later date on this subject. The initial analysis finds that the low
slopes found on this site assist in containing costs within standardized cost parameters. Some
offsite utility costs may be borne initially by the school districts with some reimbursement potential
if the County pursues an EDD grants or other utility financing methods.
