29 <br /> 1 Per Appendix G Land Use Classification and Overlay Locational Criteria of the <br /> 2 Comprehensive Plan, CITAN is located in areas meeting specific criteria including, but <br /> 3 not limited to: <br /> 4 o Areas currently, or could be reasonably and efficiently, served by centralized <br /> 5 public services and utilities; <br /> 6 o Located at the intersection of arterial and/or collector highways or in proximity to <br /> 7 other major transportation networks; <br /> 8 o In areas near major transportation routes that could be provided with public water <br /> 9 and wastewater services, which are appropriate for non-residential and higher <br /> 10 density residential uses. <br /> 11 As detailed by staff (Attachment 5), the subject parcel is not located in an area currently <br /> 12 or planned to be served by public utilities (i.e. water and/or sewer). <br /> 13 In order for the property to have access to public utilities, the Town of <br /> 14 Hillsborough/Orange County Central Orange Coordinated Area (COCA) Land Use Plan <br /> 15 and Water and Sewer Management, Planning and Boundary Agreement (WASMPBA) <br /> 16 would need modification first. <br /> 17 For more information on the definition of CITAN, and to review the allowed zoning <br /> 18 designations permitted within same, the Comprehensive Plan is accessible at: <br /> 19 http://www.orangecountync.gov/1242/2030-Comprehensive-Plan. <br /> 20 • Future Land Use Map (FLUM) Designation: The FLUM can be accessed at: <br /> 21 http://www.orangecountync.gov/DocumentCenter/View/4054/Future-Land-Use-Map- <br /> 22 PDF. <br /> 23 • Growth Management System Map Designation: The property is Rural Designated. <br /> 24 STAFF COMMENT: The Growth Management System Map is a tool utilized by <br /> 25 staff to identify permit review thresholds for residential (i.e., subdivision) projects. <br /> 26 • Town of Hillsborough/Orange County Central Orange Coordinated Area (COCA) Land <br /> 27 Use Plan: COCA is a joint land use document defining locations of `future land use <br /> 28 categories' to achieve desired and coordinated pattern(s) of development. <br /> 29 Implementation of the COCA Land Use Plan is achieved through consistency with the <br /> 30 County's Comprehensive Plan Future Land Use Map, application of County zoning, and <br /> 31 a coordinated approach to rezoning. <br /> 32 The subject parcel is outside of the Town's Urban Service area. <br /> 33 Consistent with COCA, the Town may not extend utilities outside the service area. The <br /> 34 applicant approached the Town in 2012 about moving the Urban Service boundary to <br /> 35 include this parcel. In recommending approval of COCA, Hillsborough's planning board <br /> 36 supported the concept of amending the boundary but did not take action to do so. COCA <br /> 37 can be accessed at: <br /> 38 https://www.orangecountync.gov/DocumentCenter/View/14011/Central-Orange- <br /> 39 Coordinated-Area-COCA-Land-Use-Plan-PDF. <br /> 40 Please refer to the map in Attachment 3 for more information. As previously indicated, <br /> 41 COCA modifications are necessary to extend the Urban Service Area allowing the <br /> 42 property to qualify for utility service. <br />
