i b Planning Staff Report z - Subject: ' Stacy Heights, Section II Date: December 2, 1986 Development Description The Town has received an application, proposing subdivision of a 6.78 acre parcel into 7 lots. The proposed subdivision is called Stacy Heights, Section. II. The site is identified as Chapel Hill Township Tar Map 23, Blocs 6, Lot 25A. The proposed subdivision is located on the east side of Rogers Road, 250 feet north of Homestead Road and 450 feet from the Chapel Hill city limits. The southern half of the proposed subdivision is in the ten-year transition. zone, while the northern half is in the twenty-year transition zone of the Joint Planning Area. Because of the proximity to the Urbanized. Area, to have applied urban standards to our review of this proposed subdivision. Evaluation : - - -_ - � General Site Arrangement The site has 1,075 feet of frontage on Rogers Road. Three proposed lots front on Rogers Road. Four lots are proposed to front on an =paved private road. which would connect Rogers Road to undeveloped tracts of land to the east (2 tracts of approximately 4 acres each). The adjacent undeveloped land on the east side of the property does not now have direct access to a street. Access and Circulation - Rogers Road is not part of our Thoroughfare Plan at this time. F.ovever, Gkap Hill engineering and planning staff and the transportation planner believe Rogers Road will be a major collector street in the future and 1411 require a 70-foot minimtitm right-of-way width with curb and gutter or 85-foot minima= right-of-way width without curb and gutter (Design Manual, Table 3-2). Ro;axs Road currently has a 60-foot right-of-way, and no additional right-of-way has been provided for by this proposed subdivision. The developer is not propoziny to address the future widening of Rogers Road. Internal circulation is proposed as an unpaved private road. The road accesses two undeveloped tracts of about 4 acres each. Since the area is in the ten and twenty year transition zones, the private road should be built to Town standards, Class B with a minimum right-of-way of 65 feet without curb and gutter and a • pavement of 20 feet with shoulder and ditch. A temporary T-turnaround should be installed at the end of the street. Lots 3, -4, 5, and 6 should amass on the proposed new street and notion Rogers Road. The proposed new street should. be a public road. The new road (East.Tallyho Trail) is not shown as public on- the plat.. • Open Space/Recreation Area The subdivision does not propose any recreation span.
