3U <br />Conclusion <br />The three planning staffs, in considering the recommendations of <br />the Committee, have attempted to outline the concerns of each <br />jurisdiction in this memo. These concerns were identified and <br />discussed at staff level after two recent meetings. <br />On July 25, the three planning staffs of the Joint Planning Area <br />gathered to identify issues and areas of concern as related to the <br />recommendations of the Rural Character Study Committee. Milton <br />Heath of the Institute of Government was contacted to provide <br />additional expertise in the area of water and sewer extension, and <br />his comments are provided as part of this agenda packet. On August <br />16, the staffs met again with OWASA Research and Planning <br />Administrator Ed Holland and County Attorney Geof Gledhill to hear <br />Mr. Heath and prepare this joint staff report. <br />At this time, there are three items on the table for consideration <br />by the governing boards. First is the concept or strategy itself - <br />the Conce tual Guidelines for the Rural Buffer, which has been <br />described above. This document, and the strategy contained within, <br />have created the need for amendments to both the Joint Planning <br />Area Land Use Plan and Joint Planning Agreement, which represent <br />the second and third related agenda items. <br />In general, the staffs of the three jurisdictions are in strong <br />consensus on positive aspects of the strategies outlined by the <br />Committee. The concept of clustering the development that will <br />occur while preserving large tracts of open space and agriculture <br />is an attractive one. The staffs would like to jointly recognize <br />the outstanding work and contributions that the Rural Character <br />Study Committee has made - especially in regard to its diligent <br />efforts in meeting with citizenry and civic groups. <br />As for the related plan and agreement amendments, the staffs have <br />differing recommendations based on their analysis of the Conceptual <br />Guidelines... document. <br />In the section that follows, the respective planning staffs will be <br />putting different recommendations on the table for consideration by <br />the respective boards. Although there is a strong consensus as to <br />the overall strategies, the four key issues outlined above have <br />elicited different responses on the part of staffs. <br />Recommendations <br />CARRBORO: The Carrboro Planning Staff recommends endorsement <br />of the Conceptual Guidelines for the Rural Suffer <br />with two exceptions, as shown in the Discussion <br />section of this memo. First, that the provision <br />calling for reintroduction of lot sizes based on <br />square footage (1.84 -acre minimums) not be pursued. <br />E3 <br />
