00093 indicated they will require three additional personnel and two additional vehicles to provide adequate protection. The Orange County Rescue Squad can presently provide service for this development. The Town of Hillsborough, in a letter dated November 12, 1985 to the Board of Commissioners, expressed a concern about the traffic safety and congestion along Highway 70 especially in the Cameron Park School area and in downtown Hillsborough and recommended as a requirement for approval of the project substantial improvements to Highway 70 and St. Mary's Road. Other conditions of approval include: (1) provide curb and gutter along all streets, (2) provide sidewalks along both sides of the streets within the residential areas, (3) construct the lift station at the southeast section of the project of sufficient size to accommodate any future connections by property owners along St. Mary's Road, (4) install sewer lines more than 100 feet from Nancy Hill creek. The preliminary utilities plan indicates that sewer lines are to be installed at least 50-80 feet from the creek. Members also asked that the lines be placed on a 6" sand base with additional protective measures to help prevent any leakage, (5) install mercury lights throughout the project area as the project develops for additional security, (6) provide more recreation space than the proposed 6.0 acres at the north end of the single family development, and spread out the open space/recreation areas in order to more adequately serve the single-family lots. Provide a "greenway area" along Nancy Hill Creek with a jogging trail and other recreational activities, (7) install a traffic light immediately at the intersection of St. Mary's Road and Highway 70 Bypass, (8) provide a minimum side and rear setback area of 20 feet rather than 15 feet for each single-family lot, (9) submit data concerning the amount of impervious surface to be added by the project, and (10) require the developer to place on file with the Town of Hillsborough a petition for voluntary annexation for the proposed project area. Collins presented the staff's recommendation. He explained that the applicant must comply with specific standards for a planned development and that given the three different types of development the applicant must comply with the specific standards for each of the three types. In addition to the standards for a planned development, all the other development standards contained in the Orange County Zoning Ordinance must be met. The planning staff has found that the applicant does comply with all the requirements for approval and, therefore, recommends approval of the planned development rezoning request and issuance of a Class A Special Use Permit with conditions as listed below: 1. The grantee of this Special Use Permit shall post with Orange County, in a form acceptable to the County Attorney, a bond or letter of credit in an amount equal to the cost of all public improvements plus 10%. The amount shall be determined on the basis of fully executed construction contracts or certification by a registered engineer employed by the grantee of this Special Use Permit. Security for construction of the improvements in this project may follow phasing in the project. Specifically, as improvements are completed in each phase a corresponding amount of money may be released from the security instruments or the security instruments may be renegotiated based on the "yet to do" portion of the improvements. 2. Security shall be provided for the grading, paving and stabilization of all cleared areas► streets and other vehicular travelways; sidewalks and other pedestrian walkways; erection of street signs; utility installation and hookups; recreational facilities; landscaping and mulching.
