Amend Section 2.4 (Environmental Factors) to establish a threshold of 30,000 gallons per day for high water usage. In addition, four options for water supply and sewage disposal are to be considered, including the following: (1) Limit public water and sewer service to the north side of I-40, delaying extensions to the area south of I-40 until specified development thresholds are met. As an example, extensions to the area south of I-40 might be delayed until at least seventy-five (75%) of the gross land area on the north side of I-40 consists of any combination of the following: (a) Residential areas in Secondary Development Areas are developed or site specific development plans(site plans or preliminary subdivision plans) are approved for development at a density of at one unit per acre or less; (b) Streets, roads, and utility easements located outside of lot boundaries; and/or (c) Lots or tracts used and/or site specific development plans (site plans or preliminary subdivision plans) are approved for permitted commercial, industrial, institutional or governmental purposes. (2) Limit public water and sewer service to the north side of I-40 for a two-year period during which county-wide issues related to open space,rural character,and • farmland preservation are resolved. In two years, the issue of water and sewer south of I-40 would be reconsidered.In the interim, allow alternative wastewater disposal systems. (3) Allow development to extend public water and sewer within the entirety of the EDD, including the area south of I-40. (4) Recognize that, under certain circumstances, any property within the EDD, including the area on the south side of I-40, could be annexed by the Town of Hillsborough, particularly if a developer proposed to extend water and sewer mains to serve the project. In that case, the property owner could request voluntary annexation, and the Hillsborough Town Board could approve the annexation. e. Amend Section 3.1 (Architectural Design) and Section 3.4 (Service & Storage) to allow communication towers and antennas as an accessory use, subject to screening requirements and height limitations.
