7 <br /> The University of North Carolina at Chapel Hill <br /> Outlying Properties Land Use Plans <br /> Site Visit#S <br /> 22-24 May 1996 <br /> HORACE WILLIAMS USE DISTRICTS <br /> Based on facility requirements and functional similarities, potential land uses for the <br /> outlying properties are grouped into seven district categories. The Horace Williams <br /> Property may contain more than one of each kind of district, and each district may <br /> contain the uses outlined below. <br /> 1. University Village District <br /> This district includes a variety of uses that can contribute to and benefit from a <br /> pedestrian-oriented, human-scale"village" atmosphere and convenient transit <br /> access to the main campus. Uses may include: <br /> A. Graduate/Professional Academic Units that function relatively <br /> independently from main campus activities and services. These uses could <br /> include established or emerging cross-disciplinary curricula of sufficient <br /> critical mass to find an outlying location attractive because physical <br /> proximity within the curriculum outweighs the disadvantages of <br /> remoteness between the curriculum and the main campus. <br /> B. University or Corporate Research Units or Facilities that do not require <br /> physical proximity to main campus and can be accommodated in a mixed <br /> use setting. Examples include data base driven"dry lab"collaborative <br /> research, "wet lab"hospital related analytical services, laboratory shops <br /> and support services. <br /> C. Administrative Functions that might operate effectively at outlying <br /> locations. Examples include administrative support functions and <br /> business office support functions including accounting, data processing, <br /> purchasing,human resources and materials management. <br /> D. Incubator Facilities for technology transfer that are appropriate for a <br /> mixed-use setting. <br /> E. Convenience Commercial and Service Uses that meet local or <br /> neighborhood needs. Examples include food service, dependent care <br /> facilities, small retail, small grocery store, dry cleaner, and automated- <br /> teller banking. <br />
