15 plan which is how to promote growth in the right areas and match the uses to their locations. This has been for 40 756 years, an area at an interchange. We knew that it was coming that we needed to preserve and promote it for 757 primarily non-residential uses. That’s why one of the recommendations here was to bring down the single family 758 potential since it’s happening everywhere else, that there are limited areas that are prime, and interest from the 759 non-residential development sector that they’re looking for. And they’ve looked at interchanges. They look at 760 visibility on the interstate and interchange and infrastructure. It wasn’t until we got that quarter sales tax, part of it 761 going to schools, part of it going to promote economic development, that we start putting infrastructure out there, so 762 what prompts this whole process is there’s been a lot of work done from Efland back to Mebane with infrastructure, 763 we have something on the edge of Durham that’s underway, and this has been the last area. And what has slowed 764 us down a little bit was not wanting to put a million dollars of infrastructure in and have it turn to residential. 765 Residential now is in EDH3 is by right. There’s been some interest in the development community to do something 766 out there. They may use EDH3 or 4 or 5, or they may come in with a master plan development which would be an 767 additional zoning and they might have to go through this process again. But at least this will be a guide of what can 768 be done out there. And if they go through that conditional zoning district process there’s public meetings, what uses 769 exactly go out there, so the 41 pages that Perdita listed will be there. 770 771 Lydia Wegman: Are there comments? I’ll just say with Paul, I’m a little uncertain about how exactly to proceed, as 772 well but you’re recommendation is important. 773 774 MOTION by Lisa Stuckey to approve the Statement of Consistency.
