existing sower system has a collection and pumpinq capacity of 500, 0oo gallons per day, and the County has an agreement with the Town of Hillsborough for them to treat up to 380r000 gallons of the County system's wastewater per day. Chair Carey noted that although transportation is a concern, the reality is that many citizens are leaving the county to work elsewhere. He fools confident that transportation will be forthcoming from the Trianql• Transit Authority. Commissioner Gordon made reference to the cost benefit analysis and asked that the Board direct staff to identify information they should be collecting in the next two or three years to report back to the Board. she asked the Planning Board and Staff to come up with some suggestions for the Board's consideration. She suggested that the County Commissioners may want to monitor such things as (1) do the jobs go to County residents, (2) are they good paying jobs, (3) how much residential activity can be traced directly to this nodes, etc. Commissioner Insko made reference to page 3 . 3 . 10 in the Design Manual and asked for clarification on the widening of old 86 and changing it from five lanes. Marvin Collins indicated that this can be accomplished by working with the Town of Hillsborough to change the proposed cross-sectio;, design of old 86. He confirmed that two Hillsborough Town Commissioners have indicated support for such a change. Narvin Collins confirmed that right-of-way will be reserved and used for bus transportation or light rail depending on the density. Commissioner Insko said that it would help her to know when there will be a change in the Land Use Plan as a result of the Design Manual. She tools that if a district is good for Orange County it should be approved because they now know what the changes in the Lased Use Plan are. One of her concerns about the I-40/01d 86 node is how the Board will coordinate with Hillsborough to sake sure there is not strip development all the way out Churton Street to Old is to 1-40. Hillsborough recommended that there be a joint process to look at this area and she is supportive of that process. This node will impact on both the southern and northern part of Orange County. Chair Carey suggested that all questions and comments be referred to the Planning Board along with the entire proposal. It feels it will be necessary for the Board to identify the elements they want to track over the next few years. He expressed a concern about the need for additional staff to do the tracking and everything else that will need to be done. A action was made by Commissioner Willhoit, seconded by Commissioner Halkiotis to refer this matter to the Planninq Board, along with Commissioner Gordon's memo, the consents as stated above, and the following suggestions: I. Consider removing permitted manufacturing uses from the ?- 40/Old 86 node, or at least making then special uses; 2. Consider adequacy of proposed ordinance modifications in addressing access/driveway cuts onto Old 86, i.e. , property fronting on Old 861 3. Consider phasing of implementation of prezoned areas to coincide with the extension of sewer service. The character of development without sewer may preempt the type of development that is desired; 4. Residential uses in secondary area 1-40/86: Consider making residential uses special uses OCrC•uCm Comm 9116 c.. ��
