375 <br /> Draft <br /> Perdita Holtz: That's not really envisioned with these parcels. That's not to say in the future something couldn't <br /> happen on other parcels. <br /> Craig Benedict: If you could show the map, there's some areas that were not effecting change that would allow <br /> those types is uses. <br /> Patricia Roberts:What is the pink on the map? <br /> Perdita Holtz: It's neighborhood mixed use. <br /> Patricia Roberts: So if somebody wanted to put a gas station they would have to get a SUP? <br /> Perdita Holtz: It would depend on the zoning and the zoning of those parcels are EDH-2. So I would need to look up <br /> and see. <br /> Lisa Stuckey:Would it be allowed in employment? <br /> Perdita Holtz: Well the land use classification is just the general thing; it's the zoning that's going to allow or <br /> disallow a particular use. <br /> Paul Guthrie:Where is the water line going? <br /> Perdita Holtz: The sewer line is currently in the vicinity of Cornwallis Hills and it would be coming down through <br /> here, under the interstate where the sewer line is.The water line actually exists on Old 86 right now. <br /> Paul Guthrie:And the sewer line, I assume,will be using the outflow structure that serves the hospital as well? <br /> Craig Benedict: That's correct. When the hospital was built the sewer came closer to the parcels to the south. Part <br /> of our capital improvement initiative is to assist in economic development in this area by bringing it underneath the <br /> interstate, which is a high-end effort. We want to ensure that before we bring utilities to the south we'll be in <br /> agreement with Hillsborough that says we provide these economic development infrastructure incentives that we <br /> will have primarily non-residential uses that have tax based employment. <br /> Paul Guthrie:And if I remember correct, the elevations are such that at least until you get to Old 86 you would have <br /> flow into the Hillsborough system for sewers,correct? <br /> Craig Benedict: That's correct. The sewer shed is where it flows downhill and there's a ridgeline roughly at Davis <br /> Road that flows north all the way into their system. So there's a water and sewer boundary map that guides a lot of <br /> our decisions about where you can more easily put public water/sewer versus not, and it shows this area as going <br /> towards Hillsborough. <br /> Paul Guthrie: I assume that Hillsborough has the water pumping capacity for drinking water to also go to that same <br /> area? <br /> Craig Benedict: Yes, they do.And part of the inter-local agreement will be somewhat of a reservation of water and <br /> sewer capacity for this area, to ensure that if we escorted economic development and they'll say"how much water <br /> does the water and sewer purveyor treatment operate?" and we have to have a good idea of what it is. Even with <br /> Hillsborough there are limitations. There's sometimes users that have a very large amount of water usage and <br /> sewage and we have to gauge. So we do have that in mind, that there is capacity for treatment and water. <br /> Paul Guthrie: One last question. Existing owners of residential properties- when and if those water systems are in <br /> place would they be eligible to connect? <br /> 2 <br />
