<br /> 69 Lamar Proctor: We move onto Agenda Item 7 which is a zoning atlas amendment to review and make a
<br /> 70 recommendation to the BOCC on a zoning atlas amendment to rezone plus or minus 110.456
<br /> 71 acres located at 4809 Friends School Road, Durham within the Chapel Hill Township of Orange
<br /> 72 County. The proposed rezoning is from PDH-RB which is plan development housing within the
<br /> 73 rural buffer and RB rural buffer to NR-CD non-residential conditional district. The anticipated
<br /> 74 BOCC public hearing date is September 4th. All right, Lauren?

<br /> 76 Lauren Honeycutt: Thank you, chair. Let me skip through the beginning here to get to our item. As you mentioned,
<br /> 77 this is a conditional district zoning atlas amendment for Carolina Friends School to rezone from
<br /> 78 PDH-RB and RB, rural buffer,to a non-residential conditional district. This is a conditional district
<br /> 79 rezoning, and this means that it is use specific, and it is site specific, so that is what the rezoning
<br /> 80 is contingent on. Looking at our site here,the main school is at 4809 Friends School Road. It's
<br /> 81 located in the Chapel Hill Township. We have three pins involved in this rezoning. Its watershed
<br /> 82 is Jordan Lake unprotected, and the applicant is Carolina Friends School in conjunction with the
<br /> 83 Peter and Martha Klopfer Life Estate. The current zoning is the planned development housing
<br /> 84 rural buffer. You can see that in the blue portion here that came with the special use permit
<br /> 85 granted by the BOCC, and then also the green shown on the map is the rural buffer zoning.
<br /> 86 They're requesting to rezone all three parcels to non-residential conditional district, so this would
<br /> 87 include the sites that were not in the special use permit which is that bottom parcel there.And
<br /> 88 then surrounding zoning,as y'all can see on the map is rural buffer. Future land use is rural buffer
<br /> 89 as well. This is meant to be land adjacent to an urban, or transition area. It's rural in character
<br /> 90 and should remain rural. Uses are low density, and there are not expected to be urban services
<br /> 91 provided, and Carolina Friends School is not proposing an amendment to the future land use map.
<br /> 92 This parcel is also in the joint planning area,which has its own future land use classification of
<br /> 93 rural buffer as well within parcels in the JPA that are zoned rural buffer, designated rural buffer will
<br /> 94 have a further distinction, and those parcels, these three further distinction is a rural residential,so
<br /> 95 this is meant to be residential uses, and it's meant to be low density areas that are meant to be
<br /> 96 single family homes and supporting uses. Similarly,to our future land use map it is not expected
<br /> 97 to have urban services. What comes with the conditional district application is a site-specific plan,
<br /> 98 which y'all have in front of you. We have a couple of changes to talk through. There was one
<br /> 99 change to the site plan since the agenda packet went out, and that is just a note showing that the
<br /> 100 footprint is conceptual. Y'all can see that reflected in your plans. Also, as part of the application,
<br /> 101 there's an environmental assessment, a biological inventory,and then anything else that's
<br /> 102 required with review from reviewing agencies, and those were all deemed complete by staff, so it
<br /> 103 looks like the specific plan, as we went over has had a change. Y'all can see that in front of you.
<br /> 104 The yellow page, and then the plan set, both with the same information. The other changes,just
<br /> 105 before I turn it over to the applicant, there was a change to the conceptual construction projection,
<br /> 106 and so that just shows you need the maximum square footage.Also,the list of conditions that was
<br /> 107 agreed to by Carolina Friends School and signed. There is a sheet reflecting those conditions,
<br /> 108 which did include one additional condition that is listed under No. 6 to capture the traffic changes,
<br /> 109 and that they agreed to follow NCDOT requirements when they get their driveway permit, and just
<br /> 110 to make sure we capture that change and that whichever statement of consistency, or
