9 <br /> Construction of segments of this greenway would be part of future phases of <br /> the park. <br /> • Archaeological Site:The cultural and archaeological survey done for the site <br /> in 2002 identified a Archaic age rhyolite quarry site on a hill in the western <br /> part of the property (Future Phases/Possible Educational Facility or Park). <br /> Further investigation was recommended While no activity is planned for this <br /> part of the site (a smaller"bartering site"was identified near the proposed <br /> schools),the Board may wish to consider when and whether to pursue <br /> further archaeological study(perhaps in conjunction with the UNC <br /> Department of Archaeology) <br /> • Proposed Villages at Berkeley Subdivision:A proposed subdivision on land <br /> immediately south of the Twin Creeks property was submitted to Canboro <br /> in 2003 as a concept plan. It is staff's understanding that the developer, MI <br /> Homes,has recently submitted a CUP application of their own for the site. <br /> The developers have met with staff to review plans,although not in the last <br /> several months. County staff propose to meet with Town staff soon to review <br /> any recent activity on this property and any proposed plan. Of note is the fact <br /> that the Town staff and developer had previously suggested that the park and <br /> subdivision have a shared entrance road(a short portion of Twin Creeks <br /> Parkway from Old 86 to the subdivision roads,with the road diverging near <br /> the proposed picnic shelter in Phase I).Any additional information received <br /> by the time of the meeting will be shared by staff <br /> • Twin Creeks Park Operation and Maintenance Costs: Costs associated <br /> with operation and maintenance of Twin Creeks Park were reflected in the <br /> draft Recreation and Parks Strategic Management Plan reviewed by the Board <br /> earlier this year. <br />
