Approved 9/7/2016 <br />7 <br /> 325 <br />Perdita Holtz: They’re undeveloped. 326 <br /> 327 <br />Patricia Roberts: As an interstate exit, is there any plan for gas stations? 328 <br /> 329 <br />Perdita Holtz: That’s not really envisioned with these parcels. That’s not to say in the future something couldn’t 330 <br />happen on other parcels. 331 <br /> 332 <br />Craig Benedict: If you could show the map, there’s some areas that were not effecting change that would allow 333 <br />those types is uses. 334 <br /> 335 <br />Patricia Roberts: What is the pink on the map? 336 <br /> 337 <br />Perdita Holtz: It’s neighborhood mixed use. 338 <br /> 339 <br />Patricia Roberts: So if somebody wanted to put a gas station they would have to get a SUP? 340 <br /> 341 <br />Perdita Holtz: It would depend on the zoning and the zoning of those parcels are EDH-2. So I would need to look up 342 <br />and see. 343 <br /> 344 <br />Lisa Stuckey: Would it be allowed in employment? 345 <br /> 346 <br />Perdita Holtz: Well the land use classification is just the general thing; it’s the zoning that’s going to allow or 347 <br />disallow a particular use. 348 <br /> 349 <br />Paul Guthrie: Where is the water line going? 350 <br /> 351 <br />Perdita Holtz: The sewer line is currently in the vicinity of Cornwallis Hills and it would be coming down through 352 <br />here, under the interstate where the sewer line is. The water line actually exists on Old 86 right now. 353 <br /> 354 <br />Paul Guthrie: And the sewer line, I assume, will be using the outflow structure that serves the hospital as well? 355 <br /> 356 <br />Craig Benedict: That’s correct. When the hospital was built the sewer came closer to the parcels to the south. Part 357 <br />of our capital improvement initiative is to assist in economic development in this area by bringing it underneath the 358 <br />interstate, which is a high-end effort. We want to ensure that before we bring utilities to the south we’ll be in 359 <br />agreement with Hillsborough that says we provide these economic development infrastructure incentives that we 360 <br />will have primarily non-residential uses that have tax based employment. 361 <br /> 362 <br />Paul Guthrie: And if I remember correct, the elevations are such that at least until you get to Old 86 you would have 363 <br />flow into the Hillsborough system for sewers, correct? 364 <br /> 365 <br />Craig Benedict: That’s correct. The sewer shed is where it flows downhill and there’s a ridgeline roughly at Davis 366 <br />Road that flows north all the way into their system. So there’s a water and sewer boundary map that guides a lot of 367 <br />our decisions about where you can more easily put public water/sewer versus not, and it shows this area as going 368 <br />towards Hillsborough. 369 <br /> 370 <br />Paul Guthrie: I assume that Hillsborough has the water pumping capacity for drinking water to also go to that same 371 <br />area? 372 <br /> 373 <br />Craig Benedict: Yes, they do. And part of the inter-local agreement will be somewhat of a reservation of water and 374 <br />sewer capacity for this area, to ensure that if we escorted economic development and they’ll say “how much water 375 <br />does the water and sewer purveyor treatment operate?” and we have to have a good idea of what it is. Even with 376 <br />Hillsborough there are limitations. There’s sometimes users that have a very large amount of water usage and 377 <br />sewage and we have to gauge. So we do have that in mind, that there is capacity for treatment and water. 378
