r= • 174 • 410 the site in a southeasterly direction. It is the intent of the applicant to dedicate this. land to a homeowner's association for the use and enjoyment of.the neighborhood as the existing and future residents choose. • SITE DESIGN The site is wooded in mature pines and hardwoods. The overall site design anticipates a minimum of clearing necessary for development. Street patterns are designed.to minimize earthwork operations, thus retaining as much existing vegetation and stream protection as possible. Homes to be constructed within this. development will be sited among the trees. Natural drainage patterns will not be rerouted or altered. The storm sewer system necessary as a part of the road construction process will be provided with outlet velocity control measures to prevent erosion of downstream areas. A sedimentation and erosion control plan will be submitted and approved prior to any earthwork occurring. A neighborhood open space/recreation area is provided for the use and enjoyment of the residents. A Homeowner's association will be established to- maintain and improve the area. If active recreational facilities are desirable, the existing and future residents should determine what those improvements will be. The design scheme, rkluested residential density, location, traffic circula- tion, and extension of public water and sewer services all combine to comply di with the adopted Land Use Plan for Orange County. Future growth, triggered by the completion of 1-40, a burgeoning Research Triangle Park, a healthy economic climate, and anticipated commercial and industrial expansion within the immediate area, when combined, make this a desirable location for single family housing. These changing conditions place a market demand for future housing needs within the area. The applicant feels that the rezoning and expansion of Cornwaliis Hills will help the County meet the needs of its present and future residents. • • Ag■ • • -5- •
