125 2 e ) the subdivision roads, even if constructed to State Standards, would not be accepted by the State for maintenance due to density or some other State requirements that the subdivision cannot meet. EVALUATION In applying these conditions to Turtledove Subdivision , the Planning Department notes the following : 1 . The proposed subdivision is located off the Old Greensboro Highway (SR 1005 ) in Chapel Hill Township. Surrounding property receives access from the Old Greensboro Highway. The proposed private road is designed to restrict access to only those lots in the subdivision . It is designed to allow full public safety access and no future extension Is proposed . 2. a) The subdivision consists of five (5 ) lots . b ) The subdivision does preserve a natural area. The proposed road does minimize crossing drainage ways. c) The subdivision does abut an arterial as designated in the Orange County Land Use Plan . It is in the Rural Buffer area in the Univer- sity Lake Watershed. d) The subdivision does not join or extend an existing subdivision where the streets are private or unpaved. The subdivision does not connect with or extend an existing private or unpaved street. e ) The subdivision road if constructed to State standards would probably not be accepted by the State for maintenance due to the density based on the length of the road. RECOMMENDATIONS The evaluation of the proposed private road (Turtledove Lane ) in the Turtledove Subdivision indicates that a private road is appropriate. The road would be similar to other existing subdivision roads of this nature. The road as designed only allows access to four lots since lot f1 has an existing driveway on the Old Greensboro Highway.
