Land Use Categories <br />Proposed Joint Owned Preserve: Includes areas of existing wetlands and streams located on the Greene Tract. Wetland <br />and stream information is based on information collected from Town of Chapel Hill, Town of Carrboro, and Orange County <br />staff. Buffer standards were determined based on a review of the Towns’ and County’s standards and utilizing the most <br />restrictive. Additional analysis and delineation will be required moving forward. These areas would not be developed, but <br />will remain as natural preserve areas in the future. <br />Additional Preserve: Includes areas for future preservation and upland hardwood forest which are not contained in the <br />required preserve areas. In addition to the acreage proposed to be preserved, approximately 10 – 20% of the acreage pro- <br />posed for development will be utilized for open space to provide areas of on-site preserve and connections to other areas <br />of offsite preserve. <br />Proposed Headwaters Preserve (County Owned): Includes the original 60 acres designated for preservation by the Towns <br />and County. <br />Elementary School Site: Includes acreages allocated for a future elementary school site. The proposed school site has been <br />relocated to the southern portion of the site due to environmental constraints and is not included as part of the original 18 <br />acres designated for development in the Rogers Road Task Force Report. Chapel Hill—Carrboro City Schools staff has re- <br />viewed the proposed alternatives and provides support for the proposed location. <br />Recreational Facility Site: The proposed recreational facility site is also located on the southern portion of the Greene Tract <br />in order to provide access to the future elementary school students. Chapel Hill—Carrboro City Schools staff provides sup- <br />port for the proposed recreational facility site, which could also support community usage. <br />Development: Includes areas proposed for development in the short term. The location for this category was determined <br />based on site elevations and proximity to existing infrastructure. In addition, the proposed location for development in- <br />cludes the original 18 acres identified for affordable housing in the Rogers Road Task Force Report. Includes possible loca- <br />tions for on-site stormwater facilities. <br />Road: The preliminary roadway design was based on existing environmental concerns and elevations contained on site. The <br />proposed alternatives recognize a need for additional roadway connections in the future. <br />Land Banking: Includes areas without environmental concerns and access to infrastructure which may provide an oppor- <br />tunity for future development. These areas will remain undeveloped in the short term, but may be evaluated for develop- <br />ment (i.e. residential, commercial, health services, and/or park/recreational facility) in the long term (5-10 years) depend- <br />ing on the needs of the community and planning partners at that time. <br />Greene Tract Land Use Conceptual Plan <br />Additional consideration will be required for several elements of <br />the Greene Tract: <br /> Roadway design <br /> Site infrastructure (i.e. water, sewer, fiber) <br /> Open space, recreational facility, and tree canopy preserva- <br />tion <br /> Environmental (i.e. wetlands, streams, buffers, stormwater <br />regulations) <br /> Low Impact Development <br /> Cultural and historical features <br /> Density, land use, and zoning regulations <br /> Transit <br />Alternatives must provide three levels of <br />development and incorporate: <br /> School site <br /> Recreational facility site <br /> Park space <br /> Natural preservation areas <br /> Development <br /> Road network and infrastructure <br /> Environmental buffers <br /> Cultural areas of significance <br />Three alternatives were drafted which included a project area of approximately 164 acres of land <br />divided into proposed land uses based on the project area’s environmental conditions, elements <br />of the 2002 Chapel Hill Resolution, Rogers Road Task Force report, Mapping Our Community’s <br />Future report, and local government leaders’ objectives for the Greene Tract. <br /> Further evaluation will impact and alter the proposed alternatives in the future <br /> Site plan review process will address additional land use issues and help shape the plan for the Greene Tract <br />37
