Approved 11/01/2017 9 Michael Harvey reminded the Board that Item 8 was pulled from the agenda. Staff is not going to going to be 422 reviewing Future Land Use or Zoning Atlas amendments for properties south of Interstate 40. Per his emails to the 423 Board, that discussion will have impacts on Agenda Item 9. 424 425 AGENDA ITEM 9: MASTER PLAN DEVELOPMENT APPLICATION – SETTLER’S POINT - To make a recommendation to 426 the BOCC on an application for an MPD-CZ (Master Plan Development Conditional Zoning). 427 The proposed project encompasses 272 acres in and adjacent to the Hillsborough Economic 428 Development District (EDD) south of Interstate 40 on both sides of Old Highway 86. This item 429 is scheduled for the November 2017 quarterly public hearing. 430 PRESENTER: Michael Harvey, Current Planning Supervisor 431 432 Michael Harvey reviewed the presentation. He guided the Board through the additional materials Staff passed out, 433 including a replacement page for the recommendation (page 259), a revised Attachment 7 which is the ordinance 434 amendment to the Orange County Zoning Atlas for this project. Mr. Harvey said that Staff has received a Zoning 435 Atlas amendment that proposes a rezoning of 20 parcels of property, approximately 272 acres of land south of 436 Interstate 40 through a Master Plan Conditional Zoning designation. Mr. Harvey showed visually the area which 437 located both within Economic Development Transition and Rural Residential (R-1) (shown visually), and within urban-438 designated and rural-designated within the Growth Management Plan. Mr. Harvey said that Staff recommends that 439 the review of District 3 (properties 10-20) be tabled for this discussion this evening, reason being that this area 440 containing said 10 parcels of property is not consistent with the Comprehensive Plan and the way that a Master Plan 441 Development isreviewed. This area is not in a land use classification that will allow the review of this project. Mr. 442 Harvey continued with the presentation and discussed the rezoning of the subject parcels of property from Economic 443 Development – Hillsborough 2 (EDH-2), Economic Development – Hillsborough Office/Retail (EDH-4), Economic 444 Development – Hillsborough Research and Manufacturing (EDH-5) to Master Plan Development Conditional Zoning 445 (MPD-CZ). He also noted that there are portions of the property within the Special Flood Hazard Area District 446 Overlay, and until the Overlay is eliminated, it has to be referenced. District 1 is intended to allow for research and 447 manufacturing land uses (see revised Attachment 7, page 307). The first parcel of property is 148 acres (see 448 breakdown of each Parcel Identification Number in packet) of land to be rezoned to allow for research, manufacturing 449 and industrial land uses. It is west of Old NC 86, south of the interstate, and is currently accessed via a service road. 450 As noted, these properties are located with an economic development transition area, according to the Future Land 451 Use Map of the Comprehensive Plan, allowing for the MPD-CZ. District 2 encompasses 10 total parcels covering 47 452 acres in area; it is intended to be commercially-zoned. It is located east of Old NC 86, south of interstate, and is 453 currently accessible via Old NC 86. It is also located within an economic development transition area which allows for 454 a MPD-CZ. The intended land uses include office, retail, service operation, hotels, restaurants, etc. He reminded the 455 Board that District 3 is not being discussed at this meeting. Mr. Harvey briefly reviewed the MPD-CZ rezoning 456 process wherein Staff reviews the proposed plan which, being different than a Special Use Permit, does not require 457 sworn testimony as part of the application. The schedule of review of this project started with a Neighborhood 458 Information Meeting (NIM) on the September 14, 2017 per the UDO. The developer held its own neighborhood 459 meetings without Planning Staff for adjacent property owners. The second action in the review process is for the 460 Planning Board to make a recommendation and then the project will go before a public hearing, which if 461 recommended, will go to the upcoming November 14, 2017 Quarterly Public Hearing. Per Section 2.9.2 (F) (3) of the 462 UDO, mutually-agreed-upon conditions can be imposed, addressed compatibility with the proposed development with 463 surrounding property, and proposed development of support facilities and other matters the County may find 464 appropriate, and the petitioner may propose. The applicant and Staff have created conditions through this 465 mechanism. If approved, the Zoning Atlas would be modified to change the 10 properties identified to MPD-CZ, 466 allowing for the development of the Settler’s Point project. Mr. Harvey said that the development of individual land 467 uses will be handled by Staff (i.e. reviewing site plans for permissible uses) but there will be no additional Board 468 review. This proposal would establish a zoning district and development will be accordance with the UDO along with 469 any specified condition articulated in Attachment 7 that the developer has asked to be imposed. 470 471 Tony Blake asked if there would be special uses. 472 473
