I To date a meeting with Orange Public Transportation staff to discuss the potential for service from OPT to the site has not been held, but should occur in the near future. OPT service could be important to address access for citizens from central and northern Orange to the site. Preparation of Carrboro Conditional Use Permit Once a master plan for the site has been approved, the next step would involve submittal of a formal proposal to Carrboro. County staff members met informally with Town staff on a few occasions, including an informal "preview" presentation at the Town's October 2004 development review meeting. The submittal would take the form of a Conditional Use Permit application for Phase I of the park, as no rezoning or land use plan changes would be required. The Town's Conditional Use Permit (or CUP) application involves significant levels of detail for construction drawings and documents - well beyond the level of the Master Plan's conceptual design. Some of the background work that could be completed without an adopted master plan has been done, and some of the CUP application materials could be created in -house by staff. However, most of these materials will need an adopted Master Plan to show the locations of facilities, and the majority of the work will require outside assistance from structural and environmental engineers, because of the scope of the project. The following is the list of information required for the CUP application. Items with a check mark (✓ ) are underway or have been completed, items that would be done in -house at a later date are shown as 713D," (to be developed), and items with an asterisk ( *) will require a consulting engineering firm. The Open Space Design Specialist would work closely with the firm selected to prepare these drawings and materials to ensure consistency, along with other staff members.
