PROCEDURAL CONTEXT
The Land Use Management Ordinance, Town Code Appendix A Section 4.3.2 requires applicants to submit a Concept Plan for review before applying for Conditional Zoning.
Background and CONTEXT
• Thomas & Hutton, on behalf of EB Capital Partners (Developer and Contract Purchaser), asks for feedback on a Concept Plan that includes 800-950 residential units and a commercial use component.
• The site is about 45 acres on one parcel that generally runs along the south side of I-40, north of Weaver Dairy Road, between Chapel Hill North and Carol Woods.
• Residential units would include a mix of apartments, condos, townhomes, and other housing types, spread among numerous buildings organized in clusters.
• Commercial uses could include retail and hotel located in between clusters of housing.
• Most buildings are proposed at 3 to 4 stories in height, with development in the western portion of the site reaching 5 to 6 stories.
• The developer intends to provide 10 to 15 percent of residential units as income-restricted affordable housing.
Complete Community connection
The property is a larger infill site served by existing infrastructure. It is located near proposed greenways and the future Bus Rapid Transit corridor. For full analysis, please see the section of the Staff Report titled Summary of Comprehensive Plan Considerations.
