282 a. The comprehensive lend-use plan for the Chapel Hill-'Planning Area. Coordinate of school planning with other land uses. b. The major thoroughfare plan for the planning areas related to sebool,accessibility and safety. c. Optimum size or pupil capacity of school plants and sites. These factors would be derived from criteria and standards determined or approved by the Chapel Hill School Board. d. Analysis of the present end future adequacy of existing school plants, sites, and facilities, using available material and knowledge for the most part. e. Possible uses of school buildings, facilities, and sites for other community functions. f. Possible effecta of technological innovations upon tesebing methods, school and classroom size, and site locations in accordance with any School Board standards or studies. The number of school sites required would, of course, depend upon policies gover: the number of pupils assigned to•eeeb school. These policy decisions would be in- fluenced not only by prevailing education theories and practices but also by admin- istrative and budgetary considerations, and the bases of these decisions would probably change significantly over a twenty-year period. Therefore, the school plan that would evolve from the studies outlined would be restricted to practical funda- mentals: the estimated number of pupils, the expected location of these pupils, the relationship of. potential school sites to comprehensive (over-all or "master") land use plans; the role of existing facilities, and determination of costs by rough estimate methods. The Board members raised no objection to this school plan study. Mrs. B. B., Forrest, Chairman of the County Planning Board, and Charles Keith, member of the County Planning Board, and Lucien Foust, Technical Assistant from the staff of the Research Triangle Regional Planning Commission, presented to the Board the final draft of the proposed County Planning Ordinate. A lengthy discussion of this ordinance ensued. The Board decided to request the Planning Commission for 200 copies of this draft and distribute these copies as widely as possible and especially to the organizations that requested the establish- ment,of a County Planning Committee.
