1 1.0 Future Land Use 1.1 Introduction Can Holly Springs continue to accommodate significant growth while retaining and enhancing a Village-like atmosphere? Can enough commercial land be set aside for business park and light industrial development to balance the tax base without compromising community character? Concerned planners and current residents of Holly Springs have asked these important questions during the planning process. Fortunately, Holly Springs is in a unique position. The Town has the opportunity, over the next several years, to proactively lay the framework for future growth and development while retaining and enhancing its unique character. 1.2 Future Land Use Objectives 1) Actively balance commercial, industrial and residential development with conservation when promoting land use decisions that will enable the Town to develop a sustainable balanced tax base. 2) Coordinate future development efforts on a regional basis. 3) Balance land use decisions with their potential impact on the regional transportation network. 4) Guide the development of regional commercial areas so they are contained and their access is managed to protect the character of the remainder of the community. 5) Establish a series of pedestrian friendly neighborhoods that will enable the town to maintain a small town character as it grows and changes. 6) Enable all residents to have the ability to live within walking distance of a neighborhood commercial center and central civic space. 7) Ensure that new housing is appropriate in type, location and density to minimize environmental impacts and maintain community character. 8) Accommodate a variety of housing types that includes single family, executive housing, townhouses, condominiums, and apartments. 9) Continue to develop programs and policies to attract non-residential development to further balance tax base. 10) Identify land for future industrial development. 11) Ensure adequate infrastructure to serve industry. 12) Encourage entrepreneurship and small business development. 13) Prevent sprawl and ensure that community services and infrastructure are used strategically and conservatively Amended Supplement #2 1-1

2 1.3 Future Land Use Plan This plan represents the basic concept for future land use development in the Town of Holly Springs. Growth is concentrated within Community Growth Areas (CGA s); these CGA s are intended to accommodate systematic expansion of the Town while containing unsightly sprawl. The CGA s are primarily situated at major intersections, and along major thoroughfares that traverse each sector of the Town. Proposed land uses within each CGA are also indicated on the Plan. The CGA s will create unique villages as a part of the Town as a whole where one will be able to live, shop, and work. As well as the CGA s, the Town has designated areas for Regional Centers and future Business Parks. Regional Centers are intended to promote higher intensity commercial along major transportation routes. Business Parks are intended to promote employment opportunities and clean industry. Also as a part of this plan Progress Energy Lands, approximately 12,657 acres or 31.8% of the study area, are shown and the majority part of the Progress Energy Lands within the study area has been set aside for development and operations of the Shearon Harris Nuclear power facility. Any other development in this area is not expected prior to The following describes the components of the Future Land Use Plan in more detail. 1.4 Community Growth Areas [Section Amended Resolution 15-14]* The Community Growth Areas are proposed to accommodate the systematic expansion of the Town. Generally, CGA s will be situated at major intersections within the Study Area. Each CGA promotes a similar land use pattern: mixed use commercial core that includes a civic amenity, higher density residential surrounding the core, transitioning to lower density residential expanding outward to the boundaries of each CGA. The areas outside the boundaries of the CGA s are generally intended for a low-density level of development unless otherwise specified on the Future Land Use Plan. Table 1-1 lists the six Community Growth Areas and ranks them as to the locations that are most suitable for new development based upon the location s existing infrastructure improvements with the first CGA listed as being the most development ready. Build-out of the CGA s will likely occur in this order. In Section 7: Infrastructure and Utilities, priority of future Town investment dollars to support build-out is identified. The phasing can assist the Engineering Department to prioritize utility and transportation improvements and make maximum use of existing infrastructure. Section 7: Infrastructure and Utilities ranks these CGA s in priority order for the extension of future infrastructure needs. Amended Supplement #4 1-2

The radius of each proposed CGA ranges from one-half mile to one mile which represents a neighborhood scale and can be walked by the average person within 15 to 25 minutes. A series of smaller trails emanate from the neighborhood commercial core; these trails are intended to enable each resident within the CGA to comfortably commute from the home to the neighborhood core. The primary goal is to enable the Town to develop in a consistent, orderly and phased fashion that makes the most efficient use of municipal services and promotes a pedestrian-friendly, village-like character. The following graphic illustrates a general design concept for each Growth Area. Figure 1-1 Land Use Concept for Typical Growth Area Amended Supplement #4 1-3

4 The following graphic illustrates a typical CGA view in perspective using the Rouse Road and Cass Holt Road intersection as an example. Figure 1-2 Typical Growth Area Core Perspective Note in the preceding graphic that the core of the CGA is where higher density townhouses and/or apartments are concentrated, as well as neighborhood commercial development and a civic space with a Central Park. The literal interpretation of the civic space and Central Park is extremely flexible and the illustration is for planning purposes only. The actual development could be as simple as a pond surrounded by a trail with benches or as complex as a new full-service Community Center. The objective is to establish a focal point for residents located within each CGA, create a walkable and diverse community, and maximize the efficiency of municipal servicing Community Growth Areas Defined Village District is defined as the heart of Town or the Downtown core. This CGA is one mile in diameter and would constitute a 25 minute walk from the outer areas to the community core. The community core is defined as half the size of the CGA. This is the traditional downtown area that will house most of the civic functions for the Town. Within this area Town Hall, Police Station, and Library and Cultural Center already have been established as those civic functions and a future Town Park from which the Town is named continues to define the civic importance of this area. Other land uses within the Main Street and Ballentine Street area should be a mix of uses including high intensity business, commercial, and high density residential that will expand on the already built environment that will serve as the Heart of the Town. The mixture of uses within the core area should follow the following percentage as a guide for development within this area. The business and commercial uses should constitute a minimum of sixty-five (65) percent of the core area. The remaining thirty-five (35) percent will be residential. In October 2005, Amended Supplement #4 1-4

5 The Village District Area Plan was adopted for this area of Town and has been subsequently updated in 2007 and This plan addresses land uses and transportation elements for the area from Maple Street on the south to Third Street to the north. This plan is included as a part of Appendix 2 in this Plan. [Amended Resolution 15-14]* Northeast Gateway identifies that you have arrived into Holly Springs. This CGA is one mile in diameter and would constitute a 25 minute walk from the outer areas to the community core and is already being developed with the Sunset Lake Commons shopping center at the core. The community core is defined as half the size of the CGA. Land uses within this CGA will be defined with a mix of uses including business, commercial, and higher density residential. The mixture of uses within the core area should follow the following percentage as a guide for development within this area. The business and commercial uses should constitute a minimum of eighty-five (85) percent of the core area. The remaining fifteen (15) percent will be residential. The Very High Density Residential areas within the Sunset Lake Road and Holly Springs Road CGA is encouraged to be of a much higher density, above 15 units per acre, provided that the residential development is associated with a mixed use project or is immediately adjacent to large commercial Northeast Gateway Land Use Plan projects or an integrated center. The core of this CGA will be defined as a commercial destination with a regional commercial center proposed for the future NC540 interchange. The vision is to create a sense of arrival in Holly Springs through the use of gateway features near the intersection of Sunset Lake Road and Holly Springs Road. For those who live, shop and recreate in the area the Town desires a pedestrian friendly environment with buildings being situation closer to the street with limited parking in the front of those buildings and encouraging parking to be located to the side and rear of the buildings. Additionally, the use of shared driveways will be encouraged to limited the number driveway cuts in the area. The overall land use pattern will be that of mixed use with the idea of higher density residential situated near the future NC- 540 corridor. Amended Supplement #4 1-5

Residential within the New Hill Road and Friendship Road CGA is encouraged be a much higher density, above 15 units per acre, provided that the residential is associated with a mixed use project or is immediately adjacent to large commercial projects or an integrated center. [Amended Resolution #12-17] 1.5 Regional Centers The Future Land Use Plan illustrates several locations for regional development. These designated areas have already begun to fulfill this role for the community. The Town s objective is to ensure that future regional centers consider locating in these designated locations to protect the essential village character of the Town as it continues to evolve. The Regional Center areas are located along major transportation routes throughout the Town to ensure the best access with minimal impacts to the Town s residential neighborhoods. Southern Gateway Regional Center. This area is actively developing into a regional center with over 450,000 square feet of retail space As this Regional center Amended Supplement #4 1-7

8 continues to develop, it will have a mix of uses from single family and multi-family residential, office, mixed use buildings. This Regional Center is being defined with a mix of higher density residential and commercial centers. The Mixed Residential areas within the Southern Gateway Regional Center are encouraged to be a much higher density, above 15 units per to acre, provided that the residential is associated with a mixed use project or immediately adjacent to a large commercial project or integrated center. Uses in this area should provide walkability to adjacent uses and should be of a higher architectural Southern Gateway Land Use Plan standard than that of a normal commercial use to set the tone of the village-like character that the Town is striving to create. Southern Gateway Land Uses Defined The vision is to create a sense of arrival into Holly Springs through the development of architectural design features for both commercial and residential that creates that sense of place and character for the area. With the understanding that this area is designated as a Regional Center and will primarily be accessed via the automobile, safe, comfortable and accessible multi-modal routes should be provided to encourage alternate modes of access to this area. The overall land use pattern will be of mixed use development in the area having compatible styles of architecture to create the urban village atmosphere. Development within this area will have full access limited by median breaks as specified in the Comprehensive Transportation Plan. Commercial - This designation provides for the location of power centers, including high volume, high intensity commercial uses that may have limited outdoor display or sales of merchandise that is incidental to the primary uses of the development. These areas should be developed with site and architectural standards that create an urban village atmosphere and gatherings spaces for people to meet and greet. Mixed Use - This designation is intended to allow for high-intensity business and upper-story residential activity at densities greater than 15 units to an acre to promote an urban village atmosphere. It is also intended to encourage developments that include a mix of uses within a single plan to promote interconnectivity between residential, office, and commercial uses. Developments Amended Supplement #4 1-8

9 should be pedestrian friendly and create a destination where living, working and shopping can occur in one location. Office/Professional - This designation is intended to develop major community employment centers, including major office complexes, corporate headquarters, compatible office-type businesses, limited public and semi-public uses, and research and development facilities which are in keeping in physical appearance and service requirements to general office uses. Mixed Residential - This designation provides areas for multifamily development, including apartments, condominiums, and townhomes at a density greater than 15 units to an acre, as well as small lot single family developments with densities up to 4.5 units to an acre. These projects should be designed to provide direct multimodal access to adjacent commercial areas. [Amended Resolution #12-17, 15-14]* New Hill Road and GB Alford Highway. This area will have a mix of uses including business, commercial and higher density residential. The Regional Center will provide for many of the accessory and related uses for the Holly Springs Business Park. This area will be defined with a mix of higher density residential and commercial centers. Residential within the New Hill Road and GB Alford Highway Regional Center is encouraged to be at a much higher density, above 15 units per acre, provided that the residential is associated with a mixed use project or immediately adjacent to a large commercial project or integrated center. Uses in this area should provide walkability to adjacent uses and should be of a higher architectural standard than that of a normal commercial use to set the tone of the village-like character that the Town is striving to create. In 2008, the New Hill Place Master Plan was approved to anchor this Regional Center. New Hill Place when constructed will be anchored by a big box retailer, have over 600,000 square feet of retail and contain over 40 acres of multi-family residential development interconnected with sidewalks and greenways. [Amended Resolution #12-17] Northeast Gateway Regional Center. This Regional Center is a part of a the Northeast CGA as described in Section above and will have a mix of uses including business, commercial and higher density residential. Residential within the Kildaire Farm Road and Holly Springs Road Regional Center is encouraged to be of a much higher density, above 15 units to acres, provided that the residential is associated with a mixed use project or immediately adjacent to a large commercial project or adjacent to an integrated center. This Regional Center will not experience the development pressures that other areas in town are facing until the alignment and construction schedule for NC-540 are realized. At the time of development, higher architectural standards should be applied to set the tone as a gateway into Town and the village-like character that the Town will strive to have in this area. [Amended Resolution #12-17, 15-14]* Future Interchange for US Highway 1. This Regional Center will be a focus for corporate campuses, a regional shopping center, or business parks with high density residential between the activity center and existing residential neighborhoods. Residential within the Future Interchange along US 1 Regional Center area is Amended Supplement #4 1-9

10 encouraged to be very high density, above 15 units per acre, provided that such residential is associated as a component of a mixed use project or immediately adjacent to a large commercial project or integrated center or office/business park. [Amended Resolution #12-17] 1.6 Business Parks To promote a sustainable local economy through a balanced tax base and to create jobs for residents, the Future Land Use Plan seeks to strategically maximize land allocated to commercial and light industrial development. Holly Springs has identified, and subsequently zoned, some properties suitable to accommodate future office and light industrial development and has future business park growth areas identified as well. The Future Land Use Plan designates a corridor of land due south of US Highway 1 and extending to the Shearon Harris Game Lands as a future Business Park development opportunity. A proposed road and interchange are also illustrated on the plan to provide enhanced access. For a more immediate planning opportunity within the Holly Springs jurisdiction, the existing Holly Springs Business Park just west of the GB Alford Highway may also be expanded to accommodate new business. Currently, the Holly Springs Business Park contains several small and medium size businesses that represent manufacturing, production, warehouse and distribution and service industries. Completed in 2009, Novartis Vaccines US Flu Cell Culture Manufacturing facility is located here and represents over a $1 Billion investment and consists of several conjoining buildings totaling approximately 550,000 square feet. More than 550 full time associates are employed as well as 200 contractors performing quality control lab work, manufacturing of seasonal and pandemic flu vaccines, fill and finish functions for single dose syringes, cool storage warehouse and administration functions. Portions of the Holly Springs Business Park have a Foreign Trade Zone designation and are state certified shovel-ready parcels. [Amended Resolution #15-14]* Another business park opportunity has been created with the 130 acres Friendship site that is adjacent to US Highway 1. The Town of Holly Springs, in partnership with the land owners, have performed numerous studies including a Phase 1 Environmental audit, boundary survey, topographical maps, wetland studies and industrial quality infrastructure analysis to market the site as a certified shovel-ready development opportunity. In order to meet the objective to establish a more balanced tax base by attracting revenue that is not overly burdened by municipal service requirements such as police, fire, parks and recreation, and other cost-intensive community services, the Future Land Use Plan serves a critical role in decision making to support this objective. Amended Supplement #4 1-10

11 1.7 Specific Area & Corridor Plans [Added Resolution 15-14]* Areas throughout the Town Holly Springs that have specific future development goals are defined with a separate detailed area plan. These are areas that may be within Community Growth Areas or Regional Centers that have a higher importance to the Town to ensure that the type of developed that occurs in these areas are subjected to additional oversight North Main Corridor [Added Resolution 15-14]* The North Main Corridor area has been designated as the northern entrance or gateway to Holly Springs and includes parcels that front both N. Main Street as well as GB Alford Highway (NC55). The area is in close proximity to NC 540 and as such this area is primed to become a regional destination. This corridor will feature land uses, architectural design and site design that are strategically planned to create a visual impact that residents and visitors alike will know that they have arrived in Holly Springs. The corridor is anchored by the North Main North Main Corridor Land Use Plan Athletic Complex, a regional soccer, baseball and tennis facility. Current land uses feature a mixture of single family, multi family, office space and commercial uses, with significant acreage remaining to develop or redevelop. The future land use pattern will be primarily mixed use development that serves as a destination for sports and entertainment with an emphasis on hospitality and retail services. The area will feature compatible styles of architecture to create an urban village atmosphere. New development is encouraged to provide parking to the side and rear of buildings to allow the buildings to be pulled closer to the street to create an urban edge along N. Main Street. Additionally, appropriately scaled landscaping and streetscapes will help the area have a uniform look and feel. For the parcels that front along GB Alford Highway, the existing natural buffer area will be preserved to maintain the visual appeal that currently exists along this major thoroughfare throughout Town. Amended Supplement #4 1-11

12 Development along the North Main Corridor will have full access limited by median breaks as specified in the Comprehensive Transportation Plan. Additionally, transportation planning will encourage walking and bicycling on sidewalks and greenways to provide for safe pedestrian movement due to the traffic volumes anticipated on North Main Street. North Main Corridor Land Uses Defined Office/Commercial This designation provides for the location of power centers, including high volume, high intensity commercial uses that may be characterized by outdoor display or sales of merchandise. Also this area is designated to develop major community employment centers, including major office complexes, corporate headquarters, compatible office-type businesses, limited public and semi-public uses, and research and development facilities which are in keeping in physical appearance and service requirements to general office uses. These areas should be developed with site and architectural standards that create an urban village atmosphere and gathering spaces for people to meet and greet. Vehicular oriented uses should not be encouraged in areas with this designation. Within this study area, drivethrough facilities shall be located to the side and rear of the building. Business - This designation is for revitalization, reuse, and infill development with a variety of designs that integrate shops, restaurants, personal services, professional offices, civic, educational, and religious facilities, in a pedestrian oriented environment. Vehicular oriented uses should not be encouraged in areas with this designation. Within this study area, drivethrough facilities shall be located to the side and rear of the building. Mixed Use - This designation is intended to encourage developments that include a mix of uses within a single plan to promote interconnectivity between residential, offices, and commercial uses. Developments should be pedestrian friendly and create a destination where living, working, and shopping can occur in one location. Residential - The residential category provides areas for traditional single family subdivisions. Neighborhoods within this study area should be designed with unique design characteristics that create a village atmosphere and encourages walkability. High Density Residential - The very high density residential category provides areas for multifamily development including apartments, condominiums, and townhomes 1.8 Future Land Use Plan Details [Re-numbered Resolution 15-14]* The detailed Future Land Use Plan is a tool that will guide the development of Holly Springs. This plan will provide town leaders with a standard by which to evaluate development plans as to their appropriateness to the Town s growth and development. Plans will also be compared with the designated land uses to determine how the underlying theme of a land use has been addressed. Low Density Residential This land use designation is intended to provide areas for large lot development, and to provide for limited public and institutional uses that are compatible with a low density residential area. The low-density development designation allows up to 2 units per acre, which will promote the conservation of desirable characteristics of the land, preserve agriculture land, and protect rural areas from the encroachment of scattered urban-type Amended Supplement #4 1-12

13 uses that may inhibit the overall development of the community. This land use designation should be located near the periphery of the planning boundary in areas not expected to be developed for intensive urban or suburban uses. The designation is envisioned to provide accommodations for significant environmental areas such as watersheds and unique natural features. By reducing development densities in these sensitive areas, more natural vegetation will remain to protect water quality. Additionally, these less dense areas will be located primarily to the south and west of town. Acceptable development types in this category include subdivisions with large lot sizes of a half acre or more. Residential The Residential category is intended to provide for a wide range of residential densities and limited public and institutional uses. Densities may range from 2 units per acre up to 8 units per acre. Provided, however that within certain CGA s and Regional Centers as specified, densities may exceed 15 units per acre. As development extends further from the cores densities will decrease. When business and commercial uses locate at major intersections adjacent to residential areas, concern should focus on the intensity of the proposed uses, appropriate buffering of adjacent uses, and the appearance of those uses to limit the impacts on the adjacent residential areas. [Amended Resolution #12-17] Mixed Use The Mixed Use category is intended to provide for a wide range of Commercial, Business, and Higher Density Residential. Residential may be that of a much higher density, provided that the residential is associated with a mixed use project or immediately adjacent to major commercial developments in certain CGA s and Regional Centers. The Mixed Use designation defines the core area of each Community Growth Area and areas along N. Main Street. Proposed developments within the Mixed Use designation should include multiple land uses, mixed use buildings, or provide a compatible use for the area that is not already provided to create a mixed use setting. The goal for each Mixed Use area is to create a village-like atmosphere with areas that are interconnected and pedestrian friendly. [Amended Resolution #12-17] Business Park The Business Park category is intended to set aside areas of town that encourages clean industry that will not adversely affect the quality of life. Business Parks should be concentrated to a general location in order to achieve the maximum benefit when providing infrastructure to prospective and existing business park clients. Business Parks should be located adjacent to major transportation routes with easy access to major highways, and existing facilities. Regional Center The Regional Center Designation provides for the location of power centers, including high volume, high intensity commercial uses that may include certain amounts of outdoor display or sales of merchandise. Developments with this designation should be coordinated to facilitate vehicular and pedestrian access from nearby residential districts, and should be located in close proximity to major transportation routes. If a Regional Amended Supplement #4 1-13

14 Center is located in an area with a high volume of traffic it should be designed to serve the neighborhood s residential base plus commuter traffic. Heavy Industrial Heavy Industrial areas are designed to provide land for intense industrial uses, such as quarries and landfills. Heavy Industrial areas should be concentrated to a general location in order to achieve the maximum benefit when providing infrastructure to prospective and existing industrial clients. Progress Energy Land Land that is owned by Progress Energy and essential to the operations of the Shearon Harris Nuclear Power Facility are not provided with a specific Future Land Use designation, but is noted as Progress Energy Land. Development in this area is not expected prior to Amended Supplement #4 1-14
