Pennsylvania Avenue Thursday, August 21, 2025, at 6:00 PM Chair Walden called the meeting to order at 6:00 PM. Chair Matthew Walden, Vice Chair Kim Wade, Jennifer Garner, Andrew Speck and Jason Scribner were present. Jason Scribner made a motion, which was seconded by Andrew Speck, to approve the Minutes of the July 2025 regular meeting. The motion carried. PUBLIC HEARINGS: OA-03-25: Proposed UDO Text Amendments The Town of Southern Pines Planning Department is proposing to amend UDO §2.18.3 related to the process for amending existing Planned Development (PD) - Conceptual Development Plans (CDP) to no longer require the signature of every landowner within the PD unless the proposed amendment constitutes a down-zoning under North Carolina law. The proposed amendment will require that all landowners be notified of a Neighborhood Meeting prior to submittal of the proposed amendment. The second proposed amendment is to UDO Exhibit 3-1 to reflect a 30’ Minimum Rear Setback in the Rural Estate (RE) zoning district. Exhibit 3-1 mistakenly lists 15’ for the Minimum Rear Setback. The third amendment is to UDO §8.11 to clarify that a landowner and/or applicant is welcome to attend meetings of the Technical Review Committee (TRC) because these meetings are open to the public. Chair Walden opened the public hearing. Planning Director BJ Grieve explained the three proposed text amendments. He stated that Planning staff did not have a recommendation regarding the amendment regarding the CDP process as it is more of a policy change. Joel Carner, 465 E. Delaware Avenue, expressed support for the CDP text amendment and to opening TRC meetings to the public. James Hindmarsh, 215 Carmine Road, expressed support for the text amendments. Chair Walden closed the public hearing. August 2025 Minutes Planning Board Regular Meeting Page 1 of 8 Page 2 of 32 [PAGE 3] Jason Scribner made a motion, seconded by Jennifer Garner, that after reviewing the proposed text amendments to the UDO and considering the criteria for approval of text amendments found in UDO §2.17.10, the proposed amendments are consistent with the Comprehensive Plan for the reasons set forth in Attachment A of staff report OA-03-25 and therefore, to recommend approval of OA-03-25 to the Town Council. The motion carried by a vote of 5-0. Z-05-25: Request to Rezone One Parcel on Clark Street from RM-2 (Residential Multi-Family) to RM-1CD (Residential Multi-Family Conditional Zoning District) Trevor Hanson of V3 Southeast P.C., authorized agent for Legacy Home Construction, Inc., submitted a request to rezone a +1.48-acre parcel from RM-2 to RM-1CD to allow for the development of 16 townhome units. Pursuant to the Moore County tax record, the subject parcel is identified as PIN 858219617079 (PARID 00032727) and owned by Legacy Home Construction, Inc. MAPP-04-25: Major Subdivision Preliminary Plat for 16 Single-Family Townhomes Trevor Hanson of V3 Southeast P.C., authorized agent for Legacy Home Construction, Inc., submitted a Major Subdivision Preliminary Plat application to subdivide a +1.48 acres currently zoned RM-2 into 16 townhome lots. Pursuant to the Moore County tax record, the subject parcel is identified as PIN 858219617079 (PARID 00032727) and owned by Legacy Home Construction, Inc. Chair Walden opened the public hearing and the preliminary forum. Planner James Broadwell stated that the density had doubled from the previous plan but many more trees are being retained and the applicant has committed to architecture that is more consistent with Southern Pines. Overall, the project is more consistent with the Comprehensive Plan in that it calls for preserving a large number of trees and locating high-density development in close proximity to downtown, especially on a redevelopment site. In addition, the townhomes will be conveyed separately, which will provide missing middle housing. The lots to the north and south will have slightly different setbacks due to the design of the units and units 5 - 11 will have attached garages. The applicant has submitted two site plan options for units 1-4 and 12-16 – one with surface parking only and the other with detached garages instead of surface parking – and staff had no issues with either plan. There will be a 20’ landscape buffer along the eastern property boundary. One of the proposed conditions is that surface parking and detached garages may encroach up to 15’ into the buffer. Stormwater management will be designed using a combination of rain gardens, depressions, bioswales, underground cisterns and/or retention ponds. The property is located in a High-Quality Watershed but was granted a Watershed Protection Permit with approval of the previous Major Subdivision Preliminary Plat (file #MAPP-02-24). August 2025 Minutes Planning Board Regular Meeting Page 2 of 8 Page 3 of 32 [PAGE 4] There are existing trees throughout the site, especially along the perimeter and there is a condition that any trees that do not interfere with the driveway, building footprints or utilities shall be preserved. Mr. Broadwell stated that the applicant had no issues with the proposed conditions and staff recommended approval of the project. Devin McFarland of V3, representing the applicant, stated that if they had stuck with the previously approved site plan, they would have had to either increase the cost or reduce the quality of the housing, so with this new updated site plan, they're able to provide more attainable missing middle for the community, and reduce the environmental impact, preserving a lot more trees with this new redesigned site. Mr. McFarland provided the list of the proposed conditions set forth in the application. Mr. Broadwell distributed letters received from neighboring property owners to the Board. Johnny Sanderson, 125 Midlothian Drive, stated that the project was not consistent with the neighborhood and expressed concerns regarding traffic safety and the condition of Clark Street in that area. Barry Stroud, 250 Artillery Road, stated that he does not think the project is consistent with the surrounding RS-1 properties. He is definitely apposed due to significant stormwater runoff, maintenance of the existing culverts, the change to the character of their quiet neighborhood, and the connection from Clark to Midlothian will increase traffic and potentially speeding vehicles. He is opposed to the deviations from the setbacks. Eliminate the road from Clark Street to Midlothian Drive. He inquired about the purpose of the road from Clark Street to Midlothian Drive. Trevor Hansen of V3, responded that the cut through was for emergency access. The applicant wants to provide a missing middle housing option. Current zoning allows townhomes. We did explore another option to just lock the lot it out with single family homes, but then in that sort of scenario, we would have had driveways that would have connected out to Midlothian. You know, the current zoning does allow for town homes, so we still think it's consistent with the overall comprehensive plan, and we just think that this was a balance of saving trees on site and providing missing middle housing options, which is what the comprehensive plan calls Mr. Stroud commented that missing middle housing is intended to be affordable housing. Town Attorney McCarley stated that price point is not a legitimate consideration for land use. August 2025 Minutes Planning Board Regular Meeting Page 3 of 8 Page 4 of 32 [PAGE 5] Luke Leineweber, 301 Midlothian Drive, stated that there was no advantage to having a cut through from Clark Street to Midlothian Drive and a reduction in the setbacks will set a terrible precedent. Nettie Calfee, 207 Midlothian Drive, stated that it is going to be very unsafe due to the very steep hill on Midlothian Drive and will be a blind spot for residents pulling out of the development. Keith Brennan, 240 Midlothian Drive, expressed concerns regarding traffic safety and stormwater issues. Mark Kemple, 405 Midlothian Drive, stated that flooding and increased traffic were concerns. Alison Kemple, 405 Midlothian Drive, stated that the confluence of water at the bottom of Midlothian Drive and Artillery Road from a normal rain. [photo to be entered into the record] Joel Carner, 465 E. Delaware Avenue, stated that middle housing is consistent with the Comp Plan. He asked if the cut through road will be accessible to the public or will it be gated. Trevor responded that it will most likely not be gated but it will be a private drive. Mr. Carner asked if bicycles, pedestrians, etc. outside of the development will be available to members of the public. Trevor responded that the common space will be for the residents of the development. Mr. Carner asked if buried utilities could be a condition. Planning Director BJ Grieve responded that the developer will be required to bury the utility lines. Chair Walden closed the public hearing and the preliminary forum. Trevor Hansen stated the requested setback reductions were in an effort to retain existing vegetation. There is a significant number of existing trees on the project site. There are not as many trees on the northern end of the site so they are encroaching closer to that boundary, but there is a significant amount of existing vegetation within the right of way of Midlothian Drive. Many of the setback reductions they requested relate more to the setbacks that are interior to the development. Chair Walden reopened the public hearing. Mr. Leineweber stated that the plan did not specify which trees will be retained. August 2025 Minutes Planning Board Regular Meeting Page 4 of 8 Page 5 of 32 [PAGE 6] Mr. Kemple asked if the fire access could be modified. Mr. Broadwell responded that 150’ is a fire code requirement. Mr. Sanderson stated that a 40’ setback is not consistent with the surrounding neighborhood. Steve Dailey, 162 Boiling Springs Way, stated that if the new plan includes coming from Clark Street to Midlothian Drive, he urged the Board to consider the fact that the original plan may have been good and this plan was not. Chair Walden closed the public hearing. Board discussion ensued. Chair Walden reopened the public hearing. Jennifer Bray, 220 Artillery Road, stated that several new houses have been built on Clark Street that have not sold. Three new townhomes at the end of Clark Street and Yadkin Road are still for sale. Whether there are 8 or 16 townhomes that still does not address the issue of flooding that is always occurring due to runoff from the new builds on Clark Street. Chair Walden closed the public hearing. Kim Wade made a motion, seconded by Jason Scribner, that after reviewing the proposed Conditional Zoning District and after considering the criteria for approval of zoning map amendments found in UDO §2.17.9 and/or the 2040 Comprehensive Plan, the requested zoning is not a reasonable request for the following reasons: a. safety; b. traffic; c. stormwater; d. access to Midlothian Drive; e. increased density; and f. density is not in character and consistent with the neighborhood and therefore, to recommend denial of Z-05-25 to the Town Council. The motion carried by a vote of 5-0. Mr. Broadwell stated that the proposed Major Subdivision Preliminary Plat was contingent upon approval of the rezoning and therefore, the Preliminary Forum would not be held as the proposed subdivision was not compliant with the current zoning. August 2025 Minutes Planning Board Regular Meeting Page 5 of 8 Page 6 of 32 [PAGE 7] MAPP-03-25: Major Subdivision Preliminary Plat for Seven (7) Single-Family Residential Lots Colin Webster of The Ascot Corporation, authorized agent, submitted a Major Subdivision Preliminary Plat application to subdivide 4.46 acres currently zoned RS-2 into seven (7) single- family residential lots ranging in size from 22,774 to 29,447 square feet. Pursuant to the Moore County tax record, the subject parcel is identified as PIN 858000651316 (PARID 00055181) and is owned by The Waugh Group LLC and J. Edward Rhodes. Chair Walden opened the preliminary forum. Planner James Broadwell distributed a letter received from a concerned neighbor regarding stormwater to the Board and provided an overview of the application. He stated that the plan was to subdivide the parcel into seven (7) lots with the exception of the northern portion, which will be recombined with a neighboring parcel. Town water is available to the site and individual septic systems would be installed. Mr. Broadwell said the Comprehensive Plan calls for preserving natural character and minimizing tree loss wherever possible. The 30’ front setback is a public facing space so it is a reasonable public benefit to retain those trees and recommended a condition to Council that all of those trees, minus those that need to be removed for driveways and utilities, be retained. This does correspond with what the applicant has on the plat, which is the 20’ limited cut buffer, but because the setback is 30’ and we have had similar projects staff finds it reasonable and proportional to retain the trees in the entire setback area. The applicant has not yet explicitly agreed to that condition. The second proposed condition is regarding the red-cockaded woodpecker. Staff received a letter from RLUAC in response to a request for agency comments stating that the site is well within a couple of known clusters and highly recommended a habitat study. Mr. Broadwell stated that overall, staff recommended approval of the application as it will be generally consistent with the criteria for a Major Subdivision if the two conditions are addressed. Member Scribner asked Mr. Broadwell asked with regard to preserving trees, how close the property line is to the edge of the pavement given the significant drainage area. Mr. Broadwell estimated the property line to be 10 to 15 feet from the pavement. Eric Givens of The Ascot Corporation and Grosvenor Land Development stated that a portion of the parcel on the north side of the property is supposed to be conveyed to Lot 242. He stated that they are going to obtain a red-cockaded woodpecker study and they are waiting for the soils report regarding the septic. They are willing to accommodate the 30’ setback as long as they have room between the 30’ setback and the front of the homes to install the septic and if the August 2025 Minutes Planning Board Regular Meeting Page 6 of 8 Page 7 of 32 [PAGE 8] Town considers septic to be a utility, that should not be an issue. Mr. Givens said they will be glad to keep as many trees as possible along the property. Member Garner asked for more information regarding the drywells. James Hindmarsh responded that he did not have the engineering plans and Mr. Givens said they would be located on the high side of the lot. Derek Markey, 445 E. Hedgelawn Way, raised concerns regarding drainage and the proximity of septic systems to the property lines. Adria Simpson, 1812 E. Indiana Avenue, expressed concerns regarding speeding vehicles and recommended speed bumps. Member Scribner asked the applicant if they would be keeping more trees than the existing lots have. Mr. Hindmarsh responded yes. Chair Walden closed the preliminary forum. Member Garner asked if anyone knew why this 4+ acre parcel was never developed. Ed Rhodes stated that he was involved with Sandhurst South for the past 47 years. It was developed in sections and the developer subdivided as lots were sold. Member Scribner asked Mr. Broadwell if a traffic study had been performed. Mr. Broadwell responded the Engineering staff or NCDOT did not have concerns. Jason Scribner made a motion, seconded by Jennifer Garner to adopt the following for transmission to the Town Council as a result of the August 21, 2025 preliminary forum on application MAPP-03-25: The information presented at the forum indicated that the following issue may be considered in applying the criteria for a Major Subdivision Preliminary Plat to application MAPP-03-25: 1. There is a concern regarding traffic on Indiana Avenue and the danger of adding so many driveway access points and also the speed at which people drive along that portion of Indiana Avenue. The motion carried by a vote of 5-0. August 2025 Minutes Planning Board Regular Meeting Page 7 of 8 Page 8 of 32 [PAGE 9] UNFINISHED BUSINESS: Town Attorney Mac MacCarley presented a draft of the Planning Board Rules of Procedure, explaining its purpose and content. A brief discussion ensued. Andrew Speck made a motion, seconded by Jason Scribner, to adopt the Rules of Procedure. The motion carried by a vote of 5-0. NEW BUSINESS: Mr. Grieve stated that a Planned Development – Preliminary Development Plan was on the September 2025 meeting agenda. Andrew Speck made a motion, which was seconded by Jason Scribner, to adjourn the meeting. The motion carried. The meeting adjourned at 8:40 PM.

STAFF REVIEW A. Application Review Dates • Approval of CDP (#Z-01-14): May 13, 2014 • Consultation with the Technical Review Committee: June 17, 2025 • Preliminary Development Plan Application Submitted: July 28, 2025 • Application Deemed Complete: August 26, 2025 • Notice of September 18, 2025, Planning Board Preliminary Forum: Posted On-site: August 27, 2025 o Mailed: August 27, 2025 o Internet: August 27, 2025 o Published: September 03 and September 10, 2025 o • Request for Agency Comments: August 27, 2025 B. Process and Standards of Review Applications for a Planned Development District (PD) are reviewed in accordance with UDO §2.18. Creating a Planned Development District is a three-step process including Conceptual Development Plan (CDP), Preliminary Development Plan (PDP), and Final Development Plan (FDP). This application is for a PDP. C. Applicable Criteria for Review The criteria for review and approval of a PDP are found in Chapter 2, §2.18.5(H), of the Town of Southern Pines Unified Development Ordinance. The applicants have provided a narrative addressing the purpose of a Planned Development per UDO §2.18.5(A), and addressing the criteria for a PDP per UDO §2.18.5(H). Copies of the applicant’s narrative documents containing their descriptions of the project’s alignment with applicable criteria are attached to this staff report. Staff analysis of how the application addresses these four (4) criteria begins below: Preliminary Development Plan - UDO §2.18.5(H) 1. The application demonstrates that it will achieve the purposes of the PD and this section. The applicant’s narrative states that the PD purpose will be met by delivering a high-quality Veteran Affairs service facility that qualifies as a supportive use under the CDP, strengthening economic diversity and local employment, and advancing coordinated site design and infrastructure efficiency. It also demonstrates compliance with dimensional standards and the 25% cap on supportive uses. Planning staff agrees that this Preliminary Development Plan application meets the intentions of the Planned Development. 2. The Preliminary Development Plan is consistent with the Conceptual Development Plan and conforms to all applicable provisions of this UDO; PD-03-25 Veterans Guardian September 2025 Planning Board 4 Page 13 of 32 [PAGE 14] Architectural Compliance An Architectural Compliance Permit will be required as a part of Site Plan review, as the land use is not Industrial by nature, and is therefore not exempt from the Architectural requirements of UDO §2.16 and UDO §4.10.4. Impervious Surface The PDP includes future expansions to the proposed office building; one 40’ expansion to the north, and one 40’ expansion to the west. Once fully built-out, the site will have an impervious surface percentage at approximately 51.27%, according to the applicant. No watershed protection permit has been approved nor watershed credits allocated to the subject properties to-date. Watershed allocation for the full 8.68 acres will be required if the application is to continue beyond the 24% limit, and staff therefore encourage submittal of this request prior to proceeding. Open Space and Connectivity The entire Corporate Park is required to have 20.958 acres of open space, of which 10.479 acres must be usable. This PDP does not propose any open space, instead citing the Conceptual Open Space Plan of the CDP, which indeed does not display open space as being present on this tract of land. Parking The CDP requires one parking space per every 250 square feet of gross floor area as a minimum. The proposed office building would be 27,390 sf, meaning that 110 automobile spaces are required. The application proposes 246 spaces, with 12 being accessible spaces. The CDP neither requires nor exempts bicycle parking; therefore Planning staff noted §UDO 4.5 which requires 1 bicycle space per 5,000 square feet of floor area for the land use of professional offices. Therefore, the required number of bicycle parking spaces is six, to which the PDP application matches. Proposed Land Use The land use of Veteran Affairs (LBCS 6567) is explicitly listed in the CDP as a Non-Industrial (Supportive) use, permitted within the Corporate Park. The Planned Development also requires that there is a minimum of 75% industrial land uses, and a maximum of 25% of non-industrial/supporting uses. Planned Development Acreage: 83.832 Industrial Minimum: 62.874 Non-Industrial Maximum 20.598 Industrial Still Needed: 37.235 Non-Industrial Remaining: 11.92 (Pending approval of this PDP) PD-03-25 Veterans Guardian September 2025 Planning Board 5 Page 14 of 32 [PAGE 15] Tree Protection As displayed in Figure 1, the site is presently densely wooded. Staff find that full clearing of the site would remove valued natural character, which the 2040 Comprehensive Plan (Policies 4.9 and 4.10) seek to preserve. As such, pursuant to the PDP criteria for approval, the purpose of the PDP (under UDO §2.18.5), and Comprehensive Plan policies 4.9 and 4.10, staff will recommend that Council adopt a condition to preserve this natural character, with language similar to that below: Condition Example: All existing trees, 10-inch diameter and larger, that do not interfere with essential site grading or the installation of building footprints, vehicle access areas, or utilities shall be preserved to protect the town's natural character. • The developer shall identify, during site plan review, which trees will be retained and which trees are essential to remove. Town staff shall confirm that the trees are essential to remove before approving the site plan. • Town staff will also verify tree protection fencing for trees counting toward existing vegetation credit and any other necessary aspects of this condition during site plan review. • The developer may request a reduction in tree protection fence radius for trees counting toward existing vegetation credit under UDO §4.3.13. Town staff shall grant requested tree protection fence radius reductions contingent on Town Arborist concurrence that a given reduction will not significantly impinge tree viability. A condition that keeps this application consistent with the 2040 Comprehensive Plan, that are also proportionate and reasonable given the scope of the project, also ensure consistency with the first criterion of the PDP. Wetlands The presence of wetlands on site will almost certainly present challenges if the current preliminary site plan remains unchanged (see Figures 3 and 4). A minor reorientation of the parking areas away from the wetlands could address these concerns, while preserving a natural stormwater feature, which staff recommend adjusting prior to the Town Council Evidentiary Hearing. Otherwise, the Town Council may consider a condition requiring such a reconfiguration, accompanied by a wetland’s delineation showing that the adjusted parking areas are clear of wetland impacts. If the applicant chooses not to modify the site plan, coordination with the U.S. Army Corps of Engineers would be required to obtain the necessary permits to construct within wetlands. Staff will recommend that the applicant obtain a wetlands delineation regardless of the outcome. PD-03-25 Veterans Guardian September 2025 Planning Board 6 Page 15 of 32 [PAGE 16] Conclusion The Preliminary Development Plan (PDP) is generally consistent with the approved Conceptual Development Plan (CDP) in terms of land use, site layout, and dimensional standards, maintaining the intended Corporate Park development pattern. The plan conforms to applicable setbacks, exceeds the minimum parking requirements, and aligns with the CDP’s open space provisions according to the Open Space Map contained within the CDP file. Outstanding considerations include the presence of wetlands in proximity to the proposed parking areas and the site’s existing dense vegetation. Staff recommend the reorientation of the parking area to avoid wetlands, thereby protecting natural resources and mitigating potential permitting issues with the U.S. Army Corps of Engineers. Staff further recommend a condition to preserve significant trees pursuant to the policies of the 2040 Comprehensive Plan. Finally, impervious surface coverage currently exceeds the 24$ threshold but may be allowed up to 70%, contingent on Council approval of watershed allocation. 3. The proposed Development is located in an area of the Town that is appropriate. The proposed development is located in an appropriate area of the Town, within the boundaries of the Southern Pines Corporate Park. This location is designated as an Employment Center in the Town’s 2040 Comprehensive Plan and is intended to accommodate office, industrial, and supportive uses. The project is compatible with surrounding land uses, which include other industrial, administrative, and storage facilities. The Corporate Park benefits from strong transportation connections, especially to US-1, making it a suitable and strategic location for offices. 4. The proposed Development will not cause the need for inefficient extensions and expansions of public facilities, utilities, and services. The proposed development will not result in any inefficient extensions of public infrastructure. The property already has access to public water from Air Tool Drive, and public sewer from Air Tool Drive and Tyler Industrial Court. Other necessary infrastructure such as stormwater management measures will be contained entirely within the northern portion of the site. The project is therefore expected to integrated efficiently into existing infrastructure without creating a strain on demands. IV. OUTSIDE AGENCY REVIEW AND COMMENTS A request for comments was emailed to agencies on August 27, 2025. Agencies notified include Town of Southern Pines Streets, Utilities, Fire, Recreation and Parks, and Engineering departments, the Regional Land Use Advisory Commission, U.S. Fish and PD-03-25 Veterans Guardian September 2025 Planning Board 7 Page 16 of 32 [PAGE 17] Wildlife Service, Moore County Airport and the North Carolina Department of Transportation. As of September 11, 2025, only the Regional Land Use Advisory Commission (RLUAC) has noted that the site is designated as “Important to Protect” within Fort Bragg’s High-Quality Waters drainage area and encourages measures to limit stormwater runoff impacts on McDeeds Creek; while the proposed development poses no military compatibility concerns, RLUAC’s non-binding recommendations, provided as Attachment #4, aim to support overall regional environmental and military mission compatibility. Any additional agency comments received between the writing of this report and the preliminary forum will be presented at the forum. V. ATTACHMENTS The following materials have been provided as attachments to this staff memorandum: 1. Application 2. Applicant’s Narrative 3. Applicant’s Plans 4. RLUAC Letter VI.

The subject parcel (Lot #7) contains approximately 8.67 acres and is situated on Air Tool Drive, between US Hwy 1 and Yadkin Rd. The project site lies within an existing Planned Development (PD) zoning district as approved under Zoning Case Z-01-14 in May 2014. Veterans Guardian is a professional services company that supports United States Veterans by providing expert assistance in navigating VA processes for benefits acquisition. The proposed development is classified under LBCS Code 6567 (Veteran Affairs) and is listed as a permitted supportive land use in the PD zoning documents adopted under Z-01-14. The site will include the development of a 27,390 square foot, two-story office building, 246 off-street automobile parking spaces (including 12 accessible spaces), and 6 bicycle parking spaces. The project also includes required landscaping, buffers, and stormwater facilities. No additional open space is required on this lot as the overall PD open space requirement has been met within the boundaries of the Corporate Park as a whole. Compliance with UDO Section 2.18.5(H) Criteria: (1) Achieving the Purposes of the PDD and this Section The proposed development fulfills the purposes of the Planned Development District (PDD) and the requirements of UDO Section 2.18 by: • Contributing to the intent of the PD district, which allows for a coordinated mix of industrial and supportive uses in a campus-style setting; • Providing a high-quality facility for Veteran Affairs-related services, which aligns with the supportive uses described in Table 1a of Z-01-14; • Enhancing the economic diversity of the Corporate Park and supporting the employment base of Southern Pines; • Promoting efficiency in land use, coordinated infrastructure, and site design as envisioned in the original PD approval; ____________________________________ LKC Engineering, PLLC, 140 Aqua Shed Court, Aberdeen, North Carolina 28315 PH: 910/420-1437 * License No. P-1095 Page 25 of 32 [PAGE 26] PDP Narrative – Veterans Guardian Page 2 of 5 • Complying with all dimensional standards and land allocation ratios (i.e., maintaining supportive uses within the allowed 25% cap). (2) Consistency with the Conceptual Development Plan and UDO This PDP is consistent with the Conceptual Development Plan (CDP) adopted for the Corporate Park. The development: • Matches the intended land use pattern outlined in the PD Site Plan; • Adheres to zoning regulations established in Z-01-14 including setbacks, parking, site coverage (46.09% of parcel, below 70% max), and use category; • Supports the PD zoning’s requirement that 75% of developable land be reserved for industrial uses and no more than 25% be developed as supportive uses; • Relies on shared open space requirements met by the larger development (20.96 acres required; 23.68 acres provided across the Corporate Park); • Is aligned with the Town’s Comprehensive Plan, the Official Zoning Map, and the design principles of the Unified Development Ordinance (UDO). (3) Appropriate Location within the Town The development is ideally located within a designated Planned Development node at the intersection of major corridors (US Hwy 1 and Air Tool Drive), which is identified for corporate, industrial, and supportive office growth. The site: • Lies within the bounds of a master-planned and previously approved PD district; • Is adjacent to other compatible industrial and supportive land uses (e.g., manufacturing, storage, and administrative services); • Provides easy access to transportation and utilities without burdening adjacent residential areas. (4) No Inefficient Extension of Public Infrastructure The project will not require any new or inefficient expansions of public infrastructure. Specifically: • The property is already has access to public water and sewer that is located in and along Air Tool Drive. • The site is accessed directly fr om Air Tool Drive, an existing public road; • Internal infrastructure (e.g., parking, drainage, landscaping) is contained wholly within the lot boundaries and in compliance with the Town’s design and performance standards. Page 26 of 32 [PAGE 27] PDP Narrative – Veterans Guardian Page 3 of 5 Conclusion: The Veterans Guardian Corporate Office project meets all criteria under UDO Section 2.18.5(H) and is fully consistent with the goals and requirements of the Planned Development zoning in Southern Pines. It will provide an essential public service use that supports veterans, while complementing the industrial and employment-focused character of the Southern Pines Corporate Park. All applicable provisions of the UDO, Conceptual Development Plan, and Zoning Case Z-01-14 are satisfied in this application. Accordingly, we respectfully request approval of this PDP. 2040 Comprehensive Plan References In the Town’s 2040 Comprehensive Plan there are several sections in which the Corporate Park are mention or have relevance and to which we believe that this submittal is consistent with the Comprehensive Plan. The Southern Pines Corporate Park is shown as an “Employment Center” in the comprehensive plan Conservation and Development Map. EMPLOYMENT CENTERS: This category describes land providing opportunities to concentrate employment in the town’s planning jurisdiction on normal workdays. They support both large- and small-scale offices, warehouses, manufacturing centers, or flex space buildings organized as 1) large, single-use centers or 2) multi-business centers that support and serve one another. Office developments should typically be buffered from surrounding development by transitional uses or landscaped areas, and should be located in close proximity to major highways or thoroughfares. Industrial developments should typically be buffered from surrounding development by tree preservation areas or landscaped areas that vary in type and size as a function of the activities being performed on the site. They should be located in close proximity to major highway or railroad corridors. In large employment centers, space should be reserved for athletic fields, walking trails, or nature preserves that are accessible to employees and the public. Walking trails on a site should connect to the town’s proposed greenway network when possible. Small retail buildings may be included in larger employment centers to serve employees’ daily needs (e.g., dry cleaner, small restaurant, or convenience store). Employment Center Page 27 of 32 [PAGE 28] PDP Narrative – Veterans Guardian Page 4 of 5 In the Comprehensive Plan the Corporate Park is considered a Suburban Settlement under Character Districts of the Plan: Suburban Settlements Suburban settlements represent more traditional suburban-style development types, patterns, and intensities observed throughout the United States for the last several decades: shopping centers, office parks, industrial parks, singlefamily neighborhoods, or apartment complexes. Non-residential buildings may include franchise architecture or signage. Residential buildings may be limited to the type and number of models offered by the neighborhood developer. Large surface parking lots and lower levels of landscaping are typical in the settlements. Suburban settlements are located throughout the town’s planning area, including U.S. 501, Morganton Road, May Street, Air Tool Drive, Midland Road, and several isolated developments in and around the more rural portions of the town’s planning area.

RLUAC encourages the Town of Southern Pines and the owner / developer to take such measures as are feasible to limit the impact of stormwater runoff from the future development of the site on McDeeds Creek (a tributary of Mill Creek) and the Mill Creek High Quality Waters Management Area. Maintaining the integrity of important environmental assets contributes to the overall compatibility of our region with Fort Bragg’s environmental protection mission, which goes hand-in-hand with its military training and operational missions. Beyond the potential environmental impact of the proposed development, the nature of the use proposed for the site does not present any compatibility concerns with regard to military training or operations. While RLUAC’s findings and recommendations are non-binding on the Town of Southern Pines, their consideration and incorporation into your review of this case will help to improve compatibility outcomes for our region as a whole by protecting Fort Bragg’s military training and operational missions. Thank you for providing the opportunity for RLUAC to review this case. Hon. Kia Anthony, Chairwoman Fort Bragg Regional Land Use Advisory Commission Vagn K.
