The proposal is for a 20 lot single-family Flexible Development subdivision on 41.97 acres (PINs 9884-32-3275 and 9884-31-9874) located in Eno Township on the north side of US Highway 70 across from Occoneechee Golf Club. PRESENTER: Patrick Mallett, Planner II Patrick Mallett reviewed the case history and changes since the original application, presented a PowerPoint presentation and reviewed the abstract including attachments. The project, originally proposed as a 27 lot Class A Special Use Permit Major Subdivision project, had been revised by the applicant. Now, Fairway Hills is proposed to be a 20 lot Flexible Development Cluster Major Subdivision. As a result, the review of the project would follow standards established within Section 2.15 of the UDO rather than the Special Use Permit process as contained in Section 2.7. Further, the applicant was no longer required to abide by standards contained in Section 5.17.6 of the Unified Development Ordinance as the project is no longer classified as requiring a Special Use Permit. The applicant was still obligated, however, to demonstrate compliance with the provisions of Article 7 of the UDO, which establishes the development standards for subdivision projects. The proposal will still involve creation of individual single-family residential lots for future development,proposed to be served by roadways constructed to applicable NC Department of Transportation guidelines. The proposed lots range in size from 42,785 square feet(smallest) to 125,765 square feet(largest). The Gross density is one dwelling unit per 2.1 acres, which is consistent with applicable Comprehensive Plan land use designations and the Lower Eno Protected Watershed Protection Overlay district. The applicant was proposing the creation of approximately 37%of open space area, which will be managed by a local homeowners association.
