Approved 11/6/13 6 notification from the Town on September 13th that the Town is prepared to initiate that process and has asked for 270 coordination with County staff and that a meeting be held to determine how that process will unfold and when. I don’t have 271 those specifics now but certainly will have more soon following that meeting we anticipate to take place this month. The 272 recommendation is that the Planning Board deliberate as necessary on the draft plan and provide that recommendation to 273 the County Commissioners in time for their November 5th meeting. 274 275 Pete Hallenbeck: I know that Commissioner Gordon had concerns about the area where the municipal was all in black 276 and gray in the map, did you have a chance to look at that. 277 278 Tom Altieri: I have and what she if referring to is the area shown within the Town’s ETJ and is included in the area that is 279 to be swapped with Orange County. It will become Orange County’s jurisdiction. There is an area that is presently in the 280 County’s jurisdiction that is to become Town of Hillsborough ETJ and therefore it has colors on the maps in those areas. 281 282 (Planning Members and staff reviewed maps) 283 284 Pete Hallenbeck: (referring to area on map) That area is Duke Forrest and critical watershed so it is really unlikely there 285 will be factories or condominiums in that area. 286 287 Tom Altieri: That is exactly why the Town is entertaining this swap and it makes sense to both parties. 288 289 Craig Benedict: ETJ is usually intended for growth and they can’t grow there so we are giving them areas such as near 290 the interchange that would allow them growth. We need some clarity with regard to the ‘rural living’ category within Orange 291 County planning jurisdiction. 292 293 Pete Hallenbeck: One of the things driving this is that Hillsborough historically had this very large bite of the County they it 294 was anticipating for services and then figured out how much it would cost to do water and sewer and the other thing that 295 really affected this was that I-40 came along and this area between I-40 and I-85 is pure gold. It developed in a way that no 296 one could anticipate prior to knowing about I-40. What we are really deliberating on here is saying yes this is a good 297 process in having the County and Hillsborough get together and come up with an agreement on how things should go and 298 coordinate their planning efforts to go in that direction. 299 300 Tony Blake: The swap makes sense. 301 302 Tom Altieri pointed out areas on the map in regard to the Town of Hillsborough’s plans on when to potentially service with 303 water and sewer. 304 305 MOTION made by Paul Guthrie to approve the draft Town of Hillsborough/Orange County Coordinated Future Land Use 306 Plan.
