A <br /> 8 ♦ <br /> PROPOSED ORDINANCE/PLAN AMENDMENT <br /> ORDINANCE/PLAN: Stoney Creek Small Area Plan(Amendment to Land Use Element <br /> of the Comprehensive Plan) <br /> ORIGIN OF AMENDMENT: 4_Staff Planning Board X BOCC_2�_Public <br /> Other: <br /> STAFF PRIORITY RECOMMENDATION: High Middle Low <br /> PUBLIC HEARING DATE: May 28, 1996 <br /> PURPOSE OF AMENDMENT: To fulfill BOCC charge of December 5, 1994: "To prepare <br /> a land use plan, including recommendations for implementation, for the Stoney Creek Basin <br /> Planning Area southeast of the town of Hillsborough." <br /> IMPACTASSUES: Since March 16, 1995, a 22 member Planning Group of neighborhood A <br /> representatives plus elected and appointed officials and seven alternates has worked on a land use <br /> plan for the area that achieves two goals: <br /> 1.

Lower intensity areas lie adjacent to most of the resource areas and best typify the area's <br /> remaining rural character. They are proposed to have the lowest future development <br /> densities and water and sewer extension is=envisioned. <br /> 2. Intermediate intensity areas are intended to provide a transition between lower and higher <br /> intensity. They are envisioned as being predominantly residential with density being <br /> determined largely by the character of existing development. Water and sewer extension is <br /> unlikely. <br /> 3. Higher intensity areas are adjacent to areas experiencing urban growth and at some future <br /> date will likely be annexed by Hillsborough or Durham. A mix of land uses is possible along <br /> with the eventual extension of water and sewer. <br /> The Planning Group explored traditional legal tools for plan implementation such as rezoning to <br /> promote consistency. However, a key plan goal is to not take away any options landowners <br /> currently have and no zoning changes are recommended. The Planning Group relied extensively <br />
