LOCKRIDGE COMMUNITY--PLANNED DEVELOPMENT AMENDMENT <br /> Planner Susan Smith presented for consideration of approval an <br /> amendment to the approved planned unit development site plan which was <br /> approved on November 5, 1973. The applicant is requesting an amendment <br /> to the approved site plan for designation of one new lot in Section B and <br /> the provision of areas within the common lands within Sections A & B for <br /> the establishment of a cemetery, community center, playground, pool, <br /> tractor shed, animal shelter, garden shed and studios/workshops.

PD-5-85 SCOTSWOOD <br /> Planner Susan Smith presented for consideration of approval a <br /> proposed planned development and rezoning request submitted by John W. <br /> Graham and A. H. Graham, Jr. Following the April 1, 1986 directive from <br /> the Board to the Planning Board to reconsider this project for approval, <br /> the Planning Staff again recommended approval of the planned development <br /> rezoning request and issuance of a Class A Special Use Permit with <br /> revised conditions of approval. The Planning Board again recommends <br /> denial of the planned development rezoning request and issuance of a <br /> Class A Special use Permit. However, should the Board of Commissioners <br /> approve the planned development rezoning request, the Planning Board <br /> recommends the attachment of the 42 conditions submitted as part of the <br /> abstract. <br /> Chair Don Willhoit summarized a letter from Mayor Frank <br /> Sheffield in which he has requested that a decision be postponed until <br /> more definite information is available on water resources. The Town of <br /> Hillsborough applied for an FHA loan to construct an elevated water tank <br /> on the north side of town. NRCD has entered a negative finding on the <br /> review because of the inadequate supply of water for this area. In a <br /> meeting with Mayor Sheffield, agreement was reached that a task force be <br /> formed composed of two members of each elected Board, Managers and staff <br /> as appropriate to move forward with a definite plan and try to speed up <br /> the process of augmentation of the Hillsborough water supply. He made <br /> two suggestions for increasing water resources: (1) curtail the sale of <br /> water to OWASA, and (2) extend the line to Burlington. Sheffield asked <br /> that the Scotswood project be considered contingent upon a plan for <br /> providing water in accordance with the Water Resources Division. <br /> THE PUBLIC HEARING WAS CLOSED <br /> 4. COMMUNITY DEVELOPMENT BLOCK GRANT PROGRAM AMENDMENT <br /> County Manager Ken Thompson presented for receipt of public <br /> comments a program amendment to transfer $133,461.59 which represents the <br /> remaining community development activities funds to the parks, playground <br /> and recreation facilities budget for park construction in the Northern <br /> Fairview Community Development Project Area.
