Zoning Atlas Amendment— Master Plan Development Conditional Zoning District <br /> (MPD-CZ) for the Research Triangle Logistics Park (RTLP) <br /> The Board held a public hearing to receive the Planning Board/staff recommendation <br /> and public comment, and scheduled an action for a specific future date on applicant initiated <br /> Zoning Atlas Amendments for parcels within the Hillsborough Township of Orange County. <br /> Specifically, Terra Equity, Incorporated is seeking to rezone 3 parcels west of Old NC <br /> Highway 86/south of Interstate 40 to Master Plan Development Conditional Zoning (MPD-CZ) <br /> district. <br /> A copy of the application is contained in Attachment 1.

The complete application package, including full size maps, is <br /> available on the County website at: https://www.orangecountync.gov/1722/Current-Interest- <br /> Proiects. <br /> BACKGROUND: <br /> On January 23, 2018 the Orange County Board of Commissioners (BOCC) approved a zoning <br /> atlas amendment creating a Master Plan Development Conditional Zoning (MPD-CZ) district <br /> referred to as Settlers Point (materials from that meeting are available at: <br /> http://server3.co.orange.nc.us:8088/weblink/0/doc/49647/Pagel.aspx). The approved MPD-CZ <br /> involved property on both sides of Old NC Highway 86 allowing for the development of a mixed <br /> use commercial/industrial park. Since approval, no development activity has occurred. <br /> Staff has received an application proposing a new MPD-CZ, including 2 parcels from this <br /> previously approved project. If this application is approved, the existing MPD-CZ (Settlers Point) <br /> will cease to exist. Development of subject parcels would be consistent with this new MPD-CZ <br /> district designation. <br /> STAFF COMMENT: A separate process is underway to rezone the eight parcels of <br /> property east of Old NC Highway 86, part of what was referred to as District 2 of the <br /> Settlers Point MPD-CZ, to an appropriate County economic development general use <br /> zoning designation. This item is also being reviewed at the BOCC's September 15, 2020 <br /> public hearing. <br /> The basic facts concerning this application are as follows: <br /> Applicant(s): Terra Equity, Incorporated <br /> Attn.
