Compensating Community Benefits The proposed PD zoning would offer several benefits to the community: • Hit hest and Best Use: Most of the parcels are currently vacant and the site area is underutilized. This is particularly true because the site is located at the confluence of higher intensity Comprehensive Plan placetypes and an interstate interchange. The proposed PD rezoning would allow for a wider range of neighborhood -scale goods and services to be brought to an area that is commercially underserved. Developing the site under the current R-20 zoning district would not have the same community benefit to nearby residents or persons employed in the vicinity. It is anticipated that the proposed PD development will help promote additional business growth, create jobs and increase the availability of commercial goods and services in the area generally. • Better Design: A cohesive and comprehensively designed mixed -use project will not only be a more efficient use of land as promoted in the County's Comprehensive Plan, it will also be a more architecturally and aesthetically pleasing development than a disconnected parcel -by -parcel development of this same property. The PD rezoning will allow for more thoughtful, well planned and compatible landscaping and street plans, as well as the opportunity for shared parking without multiple driveway cuts on adjacent roadways. Installation of utilities can also be achieved in a more efficient and planned manner with the PD District development. • Traffic Improvements: One of the greatest community benefits of this PD rezoning request is the proposed roadway and traffic improvements that the Developer will install as part of the development of the site. A new traffic signal and improvements to Chair Road will be significant benefits to the residents of Chair Road and the surrounding area. The proposed roadway improvements, which will include dual access points to the site, will be a significant community enhancement and will protect and enhance the ingress/egress to and from St. James AME Church. • Infrastructure: A company affiliated with the Developer has already installed a water main along Chair Road for a previous project, thereby creating a looped water system for the residents of Chair Road and Rockhill Road. This investment has served as a community benefit. The current project may also require a sewage lift station for the PD development. As previously mentioned, the Developer is willing to explore opportunities to work with the County and CFPUA to design the lift station as a regional lift station, which would allow the infrastructure to be used beyond the scope of the PD development. This would provide opportunities for the County and/or CFPUA to expand the availability of sewer to both existing and future properties in the community. • Housing: The project will include more residential units than the existing R-20 zoning currently allows. These additional units, particularly in close proximity to major employers and the interstate interchange, will increase the availability of housing at a time when the County's population and the housing deficit continue to grow. Large tracts of very low -density housing will not solve the housing shortage, but higher density housing, and particularly in mixed -use developments near major roadways and employment opportunities, will help address the County's housing shortage. The mixed -use nature of the proposed project will provide commercial goods and services to both future residents of the PD development and existing residents in the Chair Road corridor area, thereby reducing the need to access Castle Hayne Road.
