The Rodgers Road area lacks recreational <br /> facilities, health and wellness facilities, and facilities where the community might hold <br /> meetings and community functions. Resources for seniors are lacking throughout the <br /> town of Chapel Hill and non existent in the Rodgers Road area. There are no support <br /> facilities for seniors or for area youth in the Rodgers Road area. The St Paul plan will <br /> bring many of these resource facilities to the Rodger's Road Community. <br /> Our proposed rezoning to R-5-C with a Planned Development Mixed Use Zoning <br /> designation encourages a healthy density and frees a substantial portion of the site for <br /> open space that allows for relaxation and recreation while accommodating the new <br /> Residential Units. We believe this proposal meets those goals and provides the proper <br /> dimensions for healthy density in a unique property development. Thanks to the unique <br /> proposal, a substantial portion of the natural environment will be preserved. <br /> The Plan is in Compliance with Town's Design Guidelines. <br /> The plan meets all the requirements of Article 4.5.2 of the Land Use Management <br /> Ordinance for Chapel Hill <br /> The plan meets the Themes of the Comprehensive Plan. <br /> Reauest <br /> For its support of all the major themes of the Comprehensive Plan, we request that the <br /> Council support the zoning atlas amendment to R-5-C with a Planned Development <br /> Mixed Use Zoning designation, and grant the Zoning Atlas Amendment. With your <br /> approval, we will develop, construct and deliver to Chapel Hill a model project to bring <br /> new services to a community that at this point lacks many basic services. <br /> Zoning Atlas Amendment to the R-S-C with a Planned Development Mixed Use Zoning <br /> Designation for St. Paul Village <br /> St. Paul AME Church Community <br /> Chapel Hill, North Carolina <br />
