53 <br /> 1-40/Old NC 86 District <br /> The 1-40/01d 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 /> 744 acres, distributed among the principal land use <br /> categories in the schematic plan as follows: <br /> Primary Development Area <br /> Primary 1 215 Acres <br /> Primary II 115 Acres <br /> Secondary Development Area 106 Acres <br /> Open Space Area 216 Acres <br /> Rights-of-Way 92 Acres <br /> Askapillowlqui <br /> The district is characterized by widely scattered <br /> single-family residential development, consisting of <br /> d low-density subdivisions and a mobile home park. Two <br /> ", .. 'I subdivisions which adjoin the district, Stagecoach Run <br /> •:g c - - and Cornwallis Hills, deserve special attention, <br /> i.� -� s <br /> t ..:-t Pd e-• -.

Because of the low-density of the <br /> . 3: , =__ -6°:�� o ' subdivision, a Secondary Development Area has been <br /> `'t � designated adjacent to its boundaries where residential <br /> „t.p. , : .?y; . densities are limited to two dwelling units per acre, Areas <br /> ..---`... __.v,'"s 1 �' within which this density limit applies have been <br /> .Y,:. <br /> identified on the schematic plan with an "R-2" <br /> i ill designation. <br /> A <br /> F40/01C/NC.H01 way 86 The Secondary Development Area has been extended <br /> Econonri 0e vekwalaent Dr-&- t around the full circumference of the district except where <br /> it abuts Cates Creek,the northern boundary of the <br /> district. The floodplain and the steep slopes bordering <br /> Cates Creek and its tributaries allow a Primary I <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 forthis 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 /> Econornic Development Districts Design Manual Page 2.1.s <br />
