It is zoned Rural Buffer and designated Rural Buffer on the Joint Planning Area Land Use Plan. The existing landfill is in the Chapel Hill Transition Area on the Joint Planning Area Land Use Plan. Existing Special Use • A Class A Special Use Permit was issued on the above referenced property on May 5, 1997. The Special Use Permit included the construction of a 4000 square foot vehicle maintenance building, the processing of yard waste and storm debris on an ongoing basis, and the processing of recyclable materials which included white appliances, tires and scrap metal. 2 • The Board of Commissioners approved a modification to the approved Special Use Permit on November 17, 1998 to add an area to be used for recycling glass and metal cans. The expansion included: a. A 7,500 square foot concrete.slab, b.Two open sheds, 600 square feet and 900 square feet each, and c. 44,000 square feet of additional vehicular surface. Proposed Modification • ` This proposed modification will add two buildings (total 6,120 square feet) on an existing 7,500 square foot recycling pad; construction of an additional 1,125 square feet of concrete pad contiguous to the existing pad and storage of an additional six roll -off containers on the site. Access • Currently access to the site is provided through the existing landfill. There is no direct access to Eubanks Road: Buffers • A 100 -foot buffer is provided around the perimeter of the site, except along the eastern border, next to the existing landfill.

The proposed buildings will help to insure the proper operation of the landfill by allowing recycling staff' to work in an area protected from the weather. It will also help the County meet the waste reduction goals of 45 percent by 2001 and 61 percent by 2006. 8.2.1.b(2)- The use will maintain or enhance the value of the contiguous property (unless the use is a public necessity, in which case the use need not maintain or enhance the value of contiguous property); The application indicates the buildings will improve the operating efficiency of the existing recycling operation and is therefore a public necessity. * 8.2.1.b(3)- The location and character of the use, if" developed according to the plan submitted, will be in harmony with the area in which it is to be located and the use is in compliance with the plan for the physical development of the County as embodied in these regulations or in the comprehensive Plan, or portion thereof, adopted by the Board of County commissioners; The location is contiguous to the existing landfill and is in harmony with that use.
