~3 2 The new agreement further states that: "Chapel Bill agrees to commence, and states its current intent to complete, the process to make solid waste management uses not including burial of mixed solid waste or construction and demolition waste, but expressly including, but not limited to, a solid waste. transfer facility and a materials recovery facility, uses of the Exhibit E property "permitted" uses under the Chapel Hill Development CodelCkdinance, subject only to staff level site plea and similaz reviews and not subject to special use or similar processes. Chapel Hill agrees to provide the ether Parties with a plan, including a planned schedule of reviews and approvals, to process the zoning change described in this paragraph" AII~IENDMENT T4 THE DEVELOFMENT ORDINANCE The proposal would amend the Development Ordinance to aacamplish four things: 1.' Define "Solid Waste Management Facility" (Article Z). 2. Create a new zoning district called "Materials Handling District" (Article 3). • 3. Designate a "Solid Waste Management Facility"• as a pernutted use in the new zone (Articles 12 and 13). ' 4. Specify that, in this zone, the Town Manager lies authority to review and approve plans for a Solid Waste Management Facility (Article 19). We note that the property that is the subject of this initiative, the CYreene Tract, is located outside of Chapel Hill's. corporate limits, in the Joint Planning Transition Area. Once a new zoning district is created by the Chapel Hill Town Council (by amending the text of the Development Ordinances rezoning of land to the new district would need to go through a separate process that involves a Joint Public Hearing with the Orange County Commissioners. Following such a hearing, both the Chapel Hill Town Council and the Orange County Board of Commissioners, in separate actions, would need to consider the rezoning proposal. If the property is re~.oned, an application for a Solid Waste Management Facility could be received. and acted upon by the Chapel Hill Town Manager. Following is the language that would effect these changes to -the Chapel Hill Development Ordinance. Adoption of the attached Ordinance A would accomplish this: A-DD a new defuution to Article 2 of the Chapel .Bill Development Ordinance to read as follows: Solid Waste Manauement Facility: ~ Solid Waste Management Facility shall bs operated by or on behalf of a govertunental agency and shall include, but not •be limited tq a solid waste transfer facility and a materials recovery facility. A solid waste management facility shall not include the burial of arty waste material
