AN ORDINANCE AMENDING THE SUBDMSION REGULATIONS
OF THE TOWN OF HILLSBOROUGH
327
THE BOARD OF COMMISSIONERS OF THE TOWN OF HILLSBOROUGH ORDAINS:
Section 1. The Subdivision Regulations of the Town of Hillsborough are hereby amended by
deleting section 4.B.3 and 4.B.4.
Section 2. The Subdivision Regulations of the Town of Hillsborough are hereby amended by
adding the following sections:
4.4 Streets
New streets must be dedicated to the public and must meet the Town of Hills borough's Street
Construction and Acceptance Procedures (Appendix E), except as provided for in Section
4.4.5.
Street rights-of-way are designed and developed to serve several functions: (i) to carry motor
vehicle traffic, and in some cases, allow on-street parking; (ii) to provide a safe and
convenient passageway for pedestrian traffic; and (iii) to serve as an important link in the
town's drainage system.
Public streets in developments outside the city limits must be approved and accepted by the
NC Department of Trans po nation.
4.4.1 Design Standards
a)
Widths right of way, measured from lot line to lot line. shall be as wide as existing
streets extended, but in no case shall said widths be less than the following:
Street Type Minimum Required ROW Width
Arterial Street 100 Feet
Collector Streets 70 Feet
Local Streets 60 Feet
Marginal Access Streets 50 Feet
Cul-de-sacs 50 Feet
Proposed streets shall conform to grade standards adopted by the Department of
Transponation for public roads.
Streets shall be laid out so as to intersect as nearly as possible at right angles and no
street shall intersect any other street at an angle less than sixty (60) degrees.
Horizontal and vertical curves shall be designed by the subdivider according to the
standards of the N.C. Department of Transportation and in the interest of public
safety and general welfare. Factors" to be considered, among others, shall be the type
and importance of the street, sight distance, anticipated traffic volume and design
speed.
All permanent dead-end streets (as opposed to temporary dead-end streets or stub-
outs) shall be developed as cul-de-sacs in accordance with the standards set forth in
Subsection (2). Except where no other practicable alternative is available, such
streets may not extend more than 550 feet (measured to the center of the turnaround).
The right-of-way of a cul-de-sac shall have a radius of 50 feet. The radius of the
paved portion of the turnaround (measured to the outer edge of the pavement) shall
be 35 reet. If the center of the turnaround is left unpaved. the pavement width shall
be 12 feet without curb and gutter or 18 feet with curb and gutter. Any unpaved
b)
c)
d)
e)
f)
.
.
328
turnaround shall be landscaped and maintained by the developer or homeowners
association.
4.4.2 Extensions and Connections
a) The proposed street layout shall be coordinated with the existing street system of the
surrounding area and with the HilIsborough Thoroughfare Plan. Where possible
proposed streets shall be the extension of existing streets.
b) C~-sacs shall not be used to avoid connection with an existing street or to avoid
the extension of an important street.
c) Where a subdivision adjoins a Street c.lassified as arterial or collector as specified on
the Road Classification .Map (Appendix C), in the interest of highway safety, the
subdivider may be required to provide a common driveway, a marginal access street
parallel to the arterial or collector, or reverse frontage on a smaller street when the
only access to the subdivision will be from an arterial or collector. Where access is
available to any internal subdivision street, whether by reverse frontage or other lot
arrangement, private driveways shall not have access to the arterial or collector. It is
the intent of this section to minimize the number of points of degrees and regress to
main roads within Hillsborough.
d) Whenever possible, proposed intersections along one side of a street shall coincide
with existing or proposed intersection on the opposite side of such street. In any
event, where a center.line offset Gog) occurs at an intersection, the diStance between
centerlines of the intersecting streets shall be not less than 150 feet.
e) Except when no other alternative is practicable or legally possible, no two streets may
intersect with any other street on the same side at a distance of less than 400 feet
measmed from centerline to centerline of the intersecting street. When the intersected
street is an arterial the distance between intersecting streets shall be at least 1000
feet.
t) The Planning Board may require the Subdivider to extend the right of way build the
street, and/or provide a temporary cul-de-sac in order to stub out streets that should
be connected to existing or proposed streets outside the subdivision.
4.4.3 Driveways
All driveways on streets designated as arterial or collector as specified on the Road
Classification Map shall be constructed so that:
a) To the extent practicable, no driveway should be located within 250 feet of the right-
of-way of a public street that intersects with the arterial or collector upon w.hich the
driveway opens;
b) When access is available from streets of different classifications, the driveway will be
located so as to provide access only from the street with the lower classification;
c) To the extent practicable and legally possible, adjoining lots in different ownership
will be required to establish a single driveway located in the property line common to
the two lots and labeled on the survey '10int driveway."
4.4.4 Street Names and Signs
a) Names of streets which duplicate or can be confused with the names of existing
streets within HilIsborough or wrincoIporated Orange County, shall not be approved.
New street names will be reviewed with Orange County Emergency Management
records to confirm non-duplication.
b) Extensions of existing and named streets shall bear the name of such existing streets.
c) House numbering will be assigned by the Planning Deparonent in accordance with
.
.
.
329
town policies.
d) Approved street name signs shall be erected by the subdivider at the intersection of
streets.
4.4.5 Private Roads
The foregoing ordinance having been submitted to a vote, received the fonowing vote and was
duly adopted this 9th day of February, 1998.
Ayes: -I
Noes: 0
Absent or Excused:
Section 3.
Section 4.
a)
Lots may be created with access to a private road provided that no more than three
lots have been created out of the same tract and with sole access to the private road
since the effective date of this section.
The intent of this subsection is primarily to allow the creation of not more than three
lots for single-family development. Therefore, the Town may not approve any
subdivision served by a private road authorized by this subsection in which one or
more of the lots thereby created is intended for (1) two-family or multi-family
residential use or eii) any other residential use or nonresidential use that would tend
to generate more traffic than that customarily generated by three single-family
residences.
To ensure that the intent of this subsection is not subverted, the Town may, among
other pOSSIble options, required that the approved plans show the types and locations
of buildings on each lot or that the lots in a residential subdivision served by a private
road be smaller than the permissible size of lots on which two-family or multi-family
developments could be located or that restrictive covenants limiting the use of the
subdivided property in accordance with thi.s section be recorded before final plat
approvaL
1. No final plat that shows lots served by private roads may be recorded unless
the final plat contains the following notation:
"Further subdivision of any lot shown on this plat as served by a private road
may be prohibited by the Town of Hillsborough Subdivision Regulations."
2. The recorded plat of any subdivision that includes a private road shall clearly
state that such road is a private road. Further, the initial purchaser of the
newly created lot served by a private road shall be furnished by the seller with
a disclosure statement outlining the maintenance responsibilities for the road.

c)
All provisio~ of any town ordinance in conflict with this ordinance are repealed.
This ordinance shall become effective upon adoption.
