Per Section 2.9 Conditional Districts of the Unified <br /> Development Ordinance, you are receiving this letter because property you own is within <br /> 1,000 ft. of this parcel. The parcel is further described below: <br /> Property Information <br /> Parcel ID Numbers (PIN) 9739-72-0339 <br /> Owner Hands Four Development Cooperative <br /> Applicant Hands Four Development Cooperative <br /> Location Intersection of Morrow Mill Rd. and Gold Mine <br /> Loop, Chapel Hill, NC 27516 <br /> Acreage 90.13 acres <br /> Current: Agricultural Residential (AR) <br /> Zoning Proposed: Master Plan Development-Conditional <br /> District MPD-CD <br /> Watershed Designation Haw River Unprotected <br /> What is being proposed? <br /> The applicant is a cooperative formed by area residents to develop Fiddlehead Corner, a <br /> community designed for "aging in place". The development will consist of pocket <br /> neighborhoods, a tried-and-true land plan where clusters of homes are gathered around a <br /> landscaped common area, giving meaningful connection with neighbors. Universal design <br /> paths leading to a central gathering place for residents - the community center - will <br /> assure mobility, social interaction, and access to amenities for those of all abilities. As <br /> compact design allows two-thirds of the property to remain in its natural forested state, <br /> Fiddlehead Corner will blend seamlessly into the rural landscape. The proposal requests <br /> rezoning the property to Master Plan Development-Conditional District, a designation <br /> consistent with the scale and characteristics of the project. <br /> What is this meeting for? <br /> This Neighborhood Information Meeting (NIM) will allow you and other nearby property <br /> owners to meet with the applicant and discuss the proposal. <br />
