evaluate all potential activity nodes in the Township. These Activity Nodes <br /> are generally focused on major intersections and represent a point rather <br /> than an area concept.

A total of five Activity nodes have been designated in <br /> Hillsborough Township: <br /> Location: North Carolina Highway 86 and State Road 1334 (HB-1 ) <br /> Plan Category: Rural <br /> Analysis and Evaluation: This node is located at the intersection of an <br /> arterial highway (NC 86) and a collector (SR 1334). Commercial uses <br /> presently exist near this node an NC 86.

The lack of water <br /> or sewer lines in the foreseeable future also limits the scale of new <br /> development. Because there are already commercial uses in the area, only <br /> limited new development would be necessary during the 20 year time horizon <br /> of the Plan.
