Crowther called the meeting to order at 6:30 PM.
Jones and Cole, members of the Recreation Advisory Committee
agreed that fees in lieu would be acceptable for the Hampton
Pointe development.
ITEM #1: Jones added Item # 11, discussion of junk and abandoned cars,
to the agenda. Rigsbee added Item #4A, report on the LWCF
grant, Item #6A, Meadowlands rezoning, and Item # 7A, Joint
Planning Board meeting date to the agenda.
ITEM #2: Jones and Crowther noted before approval a change was needed
on page 4 of the minutes showing Murphy not Jones voting in
the negative.
Crowther moved to approve the minutes subject to correction.
Cole seconded the motion.
VOTE: Unanimous.
ITEM #3: Crowther wished the Board a Happy New Year and noted the
upcoming year would be busy.
ITEM #4: Jones reported attendance at the Parks and Recreation Task
Force meeting of December 21, 1989 did not consist of a
quorum so all agenda items were continued until the meeting
of January 18, 1990.
Crowther asked if the Occoneechee Park Committee could make
a report to the PRTF and suggested that some of that
committee's members could serve on the PRTF.
ITEM #4A: Rigsbee reported the Occoneechee Park Committee on behalf of
the Town had applied for a Land and Water Conservation Fund
grant in the amount of $75,000.00. The Committee would be
presenting its final report to the Town Board on January 8,
1990 and would be reporting to the PRTF on January 18, 1990.
ITEM #5: Rigsbee reviewed the changes to the Preliminary Plan for the
Hampton Pointe Commercial Subdivision. Smyre was invited
�� to the Board's table to indicate site plan changes. He noted
VOTE:
PLANNING BOARD

the addition of left turn and deceleration lanes on NC 86,
the change in road names and the breakdown of the project
into 5 phases. Smyre asked for a general agreement from the
Board before spending additional funds on the project and
noted that future approval would be required from outside
agencies including NCDOT for the driveway permit, NC Division
of Health Services for the water and sewer system and the NC
Division of Environmental Management for the storm water
sewer plans. He also said the Town Engineer would review the
site plan and all the above reviews would require a set of
final construction plans before they could proceed. Smyre
then asked for Board approval subject to the conditions as
amended.
Crowther advised Smyre the Recreation Advisory Committe had
approved the use of fees in lieu and said he was concerned
about water runoff. Smyre stated a study had been done on
the area showing the problem to be the undersized drain pipe
under the Southern Railroad right-of-way.
Crowther asked about drainage problems in the Wildwood area
and Smyre said that Hampton Pointe was downstream of that
area and it was unlikely there would be any problems. He
noted that all runoff would remain on-site and the release
rate would be the same as it is now. Smyre noted the water
detention system was designed for the 10 year storm and
post development runoff would be equal to or less than pre -
development runoff, and specific construction techniques
would be discussed at the final site plan stage.
Crowther asked Rigsbee if approval seemed appropriate at this
time and Rigsbee answered in the affirmative.
Smyre noted the water detention system would improve
drainage conditions on NC 86. Rigsbee asked Smyre is there
would be more runoff than there is now and Smyre answered
in the negative. Rigsbee asked Smyre if the railroad
culvert that runs parallel with the railroad within their
property presentsany problem and then withdrew the question
when Smyre explained the developer had no control over the
culvert as it was on railroad property. Smyre said he would
approach the railroad, engineer to engineer, and was unsure
at this time whether or not they would want to participate or
share in fixing the culvert. He stated if the developer
remedied the problem he would at least have to have
permission from the railroad.
Simpson moved to approve the Preliminary Subdivison subject
to conditions (attached) and to recommend approval to the
Town Board.
Evans seconded the motion.
Unanimous.

ITEM #6 Rigsbee reviewed the upcoming text amendments for Public
Hearing and indicated those that had the support of the
Planning Board and the Board of Adjustment (agenda). She
stated that Items 5 and 8, altered standards for parkland,
were not yet ready for the Public Hearing. She also noted
that Meadowlands was asking for a rezoning of the Inner Loop
Road and a Public Hearing would therefore be required on
January 23, 1990.
Rigsbee noted for Item 10 a secretarial error had occurred in
Section 6.6, showing four spaces per four students instead of
one space per four students (agenda), and noted a Public
Hearing would be necessary before a change could be made.
Moore moved to send Item 10 to Public Hearing.
Jones seconded the motion.
VOTE: Unanimous.
Rigsbee reviewed Item 2 of the upcoming Text Amendments for
Public Hearing and the Board agreed this item should not be
presented at this time.
Crowther noted a conflict in his schedule and stated he may
not be able to attend the meeting. Crowther asked Rigsbee to
check on the proper procedures. Rose said the Vice -Chair or
senior member could conduct the meeting in the absence of the
Chair.
ITEM 6A: Rigsbee announced the Meadowlands was asking for the rezoning
of a 37 acre parcel within the Inner Loop Road and a Public
Hearing would be held on January 23, 1990.
ITEM 7: Crowther said the Board was in consensus concerning the
northern, western and eastern boundaries of the 20 Year
Transition Line and they should now focus on the southern
boundary. Rigsbee indicated on the map (agenda) the current
boundaries and asked if this was how it was understood. The
Board agreed.
Crowther suggested a 2500' buffer on the southern and south-
western side of I-40 stopping at the Rural Buffer. He also
said it could extend to Davis Road and asked if there was a
consensus for a similar pattern of a 2500' buffer down
Dimmocks's Mill Road and down Davis Road. He noted the Town
would probably be supplying water and sewer to the new
school at NC 86 and New Hope Church Road.
Rigsbee noted water service already extended south on NC 86
to the Woodsedge Mobile Home Park. Simpson said the new
school would increase development and should be included
within the Line.

Crowther suggested the Line on the southeast could follow US
70 to the east and then follow University Station Road until
it intersected with the Rural Buffer 2500' beyond the roads.
From that point, Crowther suggested the Line could follow the
Rural Buffer to the west, to Dimmock's Mill Road and extend
2500' west. Rigsbee said this would incorporate the area
under consideration for the Thoroughfare Plan.
Crowther said the Board had worked hard and long on this
aspect of Cooperative Planning and he would be addressing the
Town Board on Monday. He asked for a consensus if the Board
was now in agreement as to the final location of the Line.
Cole moved to approve the Line as indicated (file) and to
send this recommendation to the Town Board.
Davis seconded the motion.
VOTE: Unanimous.
Crowther asked the staff to prepare a clearer map before
his presentation to the Town Board.
ITEM 7A# Rigsbee announced the request for a Joint Planning Board
meeting with the Orange County Planning Board regarding the
20 Year Transition Line.
Murphy said the Board should wait until the Town Board
decides on the current recommendation and Crowther agreed.
Crowther said it was possible the Town Board might change the
line and a consensus was necessary before scheduling a Joint
Planning Board meeting.
ITEM #8: Crowther reviewed the letter (agenda) and thanked Mayor
Johnson on behalf of the Board.
ITEM #9: Crowther reviewed the letters from Chavious and Evans to the
News of Orange and from himself to the Durham Morning Herald.
There was no comment.
ITEM #10: Rigsbee reviewed and distributed the Town of Hillsborough's
1989 Planning Activity Report.
ITEM #11: Jones said he had received some citizen complaints concerning
abandoned cars on Torain Street and asked about any Town
Ordinance to remedy the situation. Rigsbee reviewed the
Zoning Ordinance concerning junk cars and noted the Town
Ordinance enforced by the Police Department could be used.
Rigsbee noted home occupations and junk cars at businesses
presented a problem.

Cole moved to adjourn the meeting.
Simpson seconded the motion.
VOTE: Unanimous.
Crowther adjourned the meeting at 7:40 PM.
