Non - Residential Impacts <br />The Rural Character design proposes a village core area of internally- oriented shops, services and offices. <br />The size of the proposed non - residential area is 52,000 square feet - the same size as the village center <br />at Fearrington Village. <br />The fiscal impact on the County for non - residential is calculated using the Proportional Value system used <br />by the students (Appendix H of the students' report). This approach determines the average costs of <br />providing County services to non - residential development, and then applies them to the proposed <br />development. It then figures the average annual revenue from non - residential development. This method <br />is limited, because it figures annual capital costs as an average and does not project larger short -term costs <br />such as new government buildings. <br />This project uses property values of similar projects in Chapel Hill, as done with the neo- traditional <br />alternative's village core. To project revenues from sales, national averages of sales per square foot are <br />used. The project is anticipated to have 35,000 square feet of "retail' type uses, and 17,000 square feet of <br />office use.
