[Durham INC] July Zoning, Board of Adjustment, etc. notifications

[Pat Carstensen]

This is the monthly collection of notices INC has received.


A new wireless tower on S. Alston, just north of I40 and south of Carpenter- Fletcher


For the July 12th Planning Commission:

  *   Southpoint Trails II -- West side of NC751, just north of Stage Coach, re-arranging a planned residential development for more density, requiring a change of the future land use map for the more density
  *   Towns at Southpoint ("Southpoint" is spreading so much you can't hardly call it a "point" -- becoming pointless? (-:) -- Barbee just north of the I40 overpass, Suburban residential to planned development.  The developers have sent a letter to neighbors with commitments from their meetings with them.
  *   Copley Farm -- Four small parcels on Freeman Road near Valmet -- from suburban residential to rural residential to go with the big RR parcel behind it
  *   Ellis Road Townhomes -- Ellis Road near S. Miami, east of railroad -- suburban residential to planned development, requiring a change of the future land use map for the more density
  *   Ellis Road Commercial -- Northeast corner of S.Ellis and Durham Freeway, from a mix of residential, industrial and commercial to commercial, requiring a change in the future land use map (we would lose a little industrial, which at one point we were worried about having enough)
  *   Bethpage Village IV -- North of Chin Page, west of page -- Change of future land use plan from industrial to low/medium (4-8 units / acre) residential

Notices of neighborhood meetings

  *   June 9th -- Stallings Oil wants a different kind of commercial, one that allows more uses, NC55 and E. Cornwallis (new gas station?)
  *   June 2nd -- Another Ellis Road townhomes, I think just west of the ones going to Planning Commission next month
  *   June 27th -- Fendol Farms and 2 parcels that would triple the size (basically the whole piece within Leesville, Olive Branch, and Doc Nichols -- to an age-restricted community of up to 1200 units on 390 acres.  It has a Jordan/Falls Overlay and that isn't mentioned in what they are re-zoning to.  I'm not sure whether this reflects what the NC General Assembly was trying to do in gutting our water quality overlay rules.
  *   June 20th -- A Family Dollar at 318 Old Oxford Rd
  *   June 9th -- 4050 Patriot Drive -- change of tier from compact (around future transit stop, if we get rail to Raleigh?) to suburban.  It would stay light industrial
  *   June 9th -- 831 Slater -- annexation and re-zoning to light industrial

At the June 28th Board of Adjustment

  *   Variance in street yard setback at 2302 Gate Hill Road
  *   Minor special use to expand a place of worship in a residential area, at 2819 Chapel Hill Road at Corwallis

At the June 20th City Council Meeting:

  *   TW/55 -- plan change (from industrial and medium residential to medium/high multifamily ) and re-zoning (from commercial and rural residential to multifamily with development plan), at NE corner of Highway 55 and TW Alexander
  *   Estates at Fendol Farms -- west side of Doc Nichols Rd, annexed to city? (anyhow, going from residential rural county to same city)
  *   Witherspoon Garrett -- on Garret, north of Old Chapel Hill Rd., about 1/2 way to 15-501-- downzone office to residential rural.  Needs a change in the future land use plan
  *   Crescent / Farrington -- looks like moving the road into the city
  *   Herndon Rd at Massey Chapel -- looks like moving a little triangle of land into the city

At the June 14th Planning Commission (these will be coming to governing bodies at some point)

  *   Bernini Drive (Pulte) -- North of 185/Durham Freeway junction) suburban residential to a planned development
  *   Farrington Place at Southpoint -- Farrington between NC54 and Stagecoach, from rural residential to suburban residential with a development plan
  *   North Roxboro Retail (rescheduled from May, now) -- Residential to mid-sized commercial, on Roxboro just south of Old Farm Road, looks like currently open space?
  *   Moe's Tavern -- North Roxboro and Bill Poole Road, residential suburban to small-scale commercial
  *   Golden Belt Historic District
  *   East End Land Use Analysis -- a bunch of small parcels around the east end connector project
