These <br />services are needed but do not currently exist in the Rodgers Road Community. The site <br />consists of five recombined parcels at the northern side of the intersection of Rodger's <br />Road and Purefoy Drive. A rezoning of the site is requested from R -1 to R -S -C with a <br />Planned Development Mixed Use zoning. This request and subsequent redevelopment <br />of the site meet the goals of both the Rodger's Road Taskforce and those of the Town <br />Council as expressed in the Comprehensive Plan. <br />Background <br />IN 2008, St Paul AME Church acquired the 20 acre parcel and began to plan facilities to <br />meet both Church and Community needs. The Rodgers Road area lacks recreational <br />facilities, health and wellness facilities and facilities where the community might hold <br />meetings and community functions. Facilities for seniors are non - existent in the Rodgers <br />Road area. There are no support facilities for seniors or for area youth in the Rodgers <br />Road area. The St Paul plan will bring many of these resources to the Rodger's Road <br />Community. <br />Based on Article 4.4 of the Land Use Management Ordinance for Chapel Hill, in order to <br />establish and maintain sound, stable and desirable development within the planning <br />jurisdiction of the town it is intended that, this appendix shall not be amended except <br />a) to correct a manifest error in the appendix, or b) because of changed or changing <br />conditions, or c) to achieve the purposes of the comprehensive plan. The following <br />information outlines how the proposed St. Paul Development fulfills c) to achieve the <br />purposes of the comprehensive plan. <br />The St. Paul Plan when implemented will achieve several of the Town of Chapel Hill <br />Comprehensive Plan goals: <br />• Create and Preserve Affordable Housing Opportunities: <br />The St. Paul master plan includes 87 Dwelling Units with an 18% affordable <br />component. <br />• Complete bikeway /greenway /sidewalk system: <br />Statement of Zoning Atlas Amendment to R -S -C with Planned Development Mixed <br />Use Zoning Designation for St. Paul Village <br />St. Paul AME Church Community <br />Chapel Hill, North Carolina <br />
