18 <br /> 1-40/Old NC 86 District <br /> Thal-40/01d N.C. 86 Economic Development District <br /> encompasses all four corners of a major interstate <br /> interchange south of Hillsborough. The area consists of <br /> acres, distributed among the principal land use <br /> categories in the schematic plan as follows: <br /> Primary Development Area Acres <br /> Secondary Development Area <br /> Secondary <br /> Secondary II <br /> Open Space Area 285 Acres <br /> Rights-of-Way 100 Acres <br /> The district is characterized by widely scattered <br /> single-family residential development, consisting of <br /> • <br /> • v low-density subdivisions and a mobile home p ark.

The floodplain and the steep slopes bordering <br /> Cates Creek and its tributaries allow a Primary <br /> Development Area to be located adjacent to Cornwallis <br /> Hills, a moderate-density subdivision with densities of <br /> three dwelling units per acre. <br /> Because this "natural buffer"may not be sufficient to <br /> eliminate land use impacts such as noise,site plans must <br /> include mitigation devices for this purpose.Criteria for <br /> the preservation of the floodplain as well as other natural <br /> features are discussed in section 3.2 - Landscape Design, <br /> Econommc DevekpmentDrstrcts Design Manual Pee 2.1 8 <br />
