NOTE
:
The
Subdivision Committee

1. Call to Order -
Mr. Terry Yeargan, Chair
2. Petitions and Amendments -
Mr. Terry Yeargan, Chair
[Board members, staff, or persons attending the meeting may submit or present written or oral requests unrelated to items on the agenda, including requests to amend the agenda to add or re-order items. A new item involving substantive matters of potential public interest may be added to the agenda only for the purposes of referring it to the staff or a committee or scheduling it for consideration at a later meeting.]
3. Consent Agenda -
Mr. Terry Yeargan, Chair
[These are items proposed to be approved by unanimous consent - without discussion, and in accord with a submitted recommendation. They are limited to preliminary subdivision plans recommended for approval by the Land Development Administrator and not involving a variance, and items where a Planning Board committee unanimously recommends approval and concurs with the staff recommendation. If any Board member objects to unanimous consent approval of any item below (whether because of disagreement with the recommendation or a wish to discuss the matter further), the Chair will declare the item removed to an appropriate place on the agenda for separate discussion.]
a. [S-34-01] Preliminary Subdivision Plan titled Highway 98 Cluster:
Proposal to subdivide a 32.13 acre parcel, zoned R-80-W, situated on both sides of NC Highway 98, between Six Forks Road and Falls Lake into 16 lots. This is a proposed cluster subdivision.
PIN 1801.04-51-2683 - recommended for approval subject to the following conditions:
1. Street C will be designed to serve 4 lots in order to obtain maintenance of this road from the North Carolina Department of Transportation. (NCDOT will not take over for maintenance any road that serves less than 4 lots.)
2. The 60-foot strip of permanent open space and the 10-foot strip located south of lot 8 will be deleted from the plan. Approval of an access strip to Falls Lake seems unlikely from the Corps of Engineers. Reference to access on any future plans will be removed and staff will insure that open space and zoning requirements are met. This may decrease the total lot count by one.
3. Proposed 50-foot R/W shall be an easement that may be made a public or private road by future developer of the tract to the south.
b. [S-39-01] Preliminary Subdivision Plan titled Earle Ridge:
Proposal to subdivide a 7.11 acre parcel, zoned R-40-W, situated on the west side of Earle Road between Olde South Road and Donnybrook Road, north of Lake Wheeler, into 7 lots. PIN 0781.03-23-9710; 0781.03-23-9518; and 0781.03-23-9405 - recommended for approval as submitted.
c. [S-40-01] Preliminary Subdivision Plan titled Shoreline Estates:
Proposal to subdivide a 22.963 acre parcel, zoned R-40-W and R-80-W, situated on the east side of New Light Road north of NC Highway 98, into 11 lots. This is located in the northern part of the county. PIN 1802.01-37-9739 - recommended for approval subject to the following conditions:
1. Submit and have approved a recombination plan that shows the property line revision on the south side of lots 10 and 11. (This item will be needed prior to submission of construction plans.)
2. The intersection of Street A and B will be relocated slightly to the east, thus reducing overall length of cul-de-sac to 90 feet or less. (This item will be included with any construction plan.)
3. Label Watershed Buffer and show and label 20-foot building setback off of this.
4. Rezonings -
[These are petitions to amend the County's Zoning Map to reclassify land from one zoning district to another, thus subjecting the site to a different set of zoning regulations. The Planning Board reviews these petitions in an advisory capacity, recommending that the Board of Commissioners either approve or deny the petition. The Board must base its recommendation on whether or not the proposed rezoning is consistent with the County's Land Use Plan and otherwise advances the public health, safety, and general welfare.]

5. Preliminary Subdivision Plans (including associated variances) -
[These are applications for approval of preliminary plans for the division of land into lots, which are reviewed for compliance with standards set forth in the County's Subdivision Ordinance. If the plan complies with all applicable standards, the Board must approve it; if not, the Board must either deny it or approve it with conditions specifying actions that will ensure such compliance. These applications may be accompanied by applications for hardship variances from the Subdivision Ordinance's standards, which must be decided before review of the preliminary subdivision plan. The Planning Board may grant a variance only after it hears evidence as to hardships due to the land or parcel, makes findings of fact supported by the presented evidence, and, based on those findings of fact, concludes that: (a) strict application of the relevant standard would prohibit subdivision of the parcel in accord with the spirit and intent of the Subdivision Ordinance because of extraordinary circumstances peculiar to the parcel; (b) the variance is necessary to avoid extraordinary and unnecessary hardship; and (c) the variance will not result in detriment to the public interest or violate the intent and purpose of the Subdivision Ordinance. The applicant bears the burden of presenting sufficient evidence to allow the Board to make findings of fact and reach the required conclusions.]
a. [S-35-01] Preliminary Subdivision Plan for Whispering Glen AKA Ethan's Gate:
(Only if Subdivision Committee has completed its review.)
Proposal to subdivide a 35.53 acre parcel, zoned R-40-W, situated on the east side of Creedmoor Road between NC Highway 98 and Mount Vernon Church Road, in the northern part of the county, into 12 lots. PIN 0891.03-30-1946 - recommended for denial based on the following:
1. Redesign to interconnect stub from Annie's Woods Subdivision with proposed road;
2. Show and label Watershed and/or Drainageway Buffers and 20-foot building setbacks off of these;
3. Show roads to be public;

(Only if Subdivision Committee has completed its review.)
Proposal to subdivide a 30.413 acre parcel, zoned R-30, situated on the west side of Jordan Road between Sauls Road and Brack Penny Road, north of Highway 42, into 31 lots as a cluster subdivision. PIN 1617.03-16-9305 - recommended for denial based on the following:
1. Lot 16 will need to have at least 30 feet of frontage;
2. The designer has told staff verbally that Jordan Woods Drive has not been constructed to the property line between lot 18A and the well lot. He has further stated that although the right-of-way is dedicated and staff has asked for a stub to provide for an interconnected road network and this has been shown, the developer is unwilling and/or unable to build the section of road that would make the connection;
3. The designer has told staff verbally that Lots 14A through 18A are proposed to serve as repair area for septic systems for lots 14 through 18. These lots do not conform to standards for access as standard cluster lots and are not contiguous to the lots that they will serve. The Environmental Services Department is troubled with the design and would like to have a design that eliminates the repair areas in these remote locations; and
4. Subdivision name needs to be approved by subdivision staff.
