6. Items for decision - regular agenda
A. Annexation and rezoning request for Waterstone South
Hillsborough Planner II Molly Boyle recapped the proposal and its project and consideration timeline. The
developer proposed building 450 apartments, 205 townhomes and 240,000 square feet of medical, office
and neighborhood commercial use space and had agreed to make 15% of the market-rate units affordable to
those earning 80% of the average median income. The non-residential buildings would be built along
Waterstone Drive and N.C. 86 South.
Hillsborough Environmental Engineering Supervisor Bryant Green reviewed the developer’s commitments to
financially contribute to several water and sewer upgrades, including a new pump station to replace the
Nazarene and Woods Edge pump stations and $250,000 for Elizabeth Brady Pump Station improvements. The
water system connection was agreed upon and the system development fees would be paid when the site
plan is filed.
Eric Chupp, vice president of Capkov Ventures Inc., said the development aligns with the town’s plans for the
area and the area has sewer capacity. The development would be close to major transportation corridors and
would provide opportunities to walk to businesses and schools. Additional rooftops should help attract
commercial businesses. Affordable townhome and apartment units would be among the market-rate units
and have the same exterior.
John Dempsey, an Orange County resident, addressed the board to ask that the intermittent stream on the
property be protected.
Dan Jewell, landscape architect and principal regional director of the engineering services firm Thomas &
Hutton, addressed the board. He said the development should connect with the rest of town and the
developer is committed to building a greenway in the N.C. 86 right of way. The developer will make a
$150,000 payment in lieu if the state does not approve the greenway location by the time the certificates of
occupation are sought.
The board posed questions to those who had spoken. It was noted that:
• Utilities staff had considered all previously approved development when calculating whether this
proposal could be accommodated.

• The Elizabeth Brady Pump Station will need to be replaced within five years.
• The developer’s utilities contributions would be close to covering the cost of providing service in this
new area.
• Affordable units would have the same heating and air conditioning units as market-rate units.
The greenway placement and payment in lieu were discussed at length. It was determined that the trail
would be 1.25 miles long and asphalt where allowed in the N.C. 86 South right of way, located at the bottom
of the slope. It was noted that payments in lieu are usually 125% of the cost at the expected construction
date to build a sidewalk or greenway. Following discussion, Chupp agreed to pay $187,000 as a payment in
lieu if the greenway could not be built.
Motion: English moved to approve the rezoning request to include the greenway changes to the map
and amended conditions the applicant presented, noting that the proposed amendment is
consistent with the Land Use and Development chapter goal to “Ensure that future growth and
development, including infill and redevelopment, are aligned with smart growth principles and
consider infrastructure constraints such as water and wastewater system capacity” and that
the proposed regulations advance identified goals and strategies found in the Comprehensive
Sustainability Plan and promote public health, safety and welfare by creating more diversity in
the town’s housing stock, creating more affordable housing options in the community, and
adding commercial development at Waterstone Drive and N.C. 86 South. Ferguson seconded.
Motion: Darab moved to amend the motion to include that the affordable units shall be integrated with
the market-rate units and shall include similar HVAC and insulation installations. Hughes
seconded.
Vote: 5-0.
Motion: Hughes moved to approve the annexation request. Ferguson seconded.
Vote: 5-0.
B. Strategic Plan Annual Report
Administrative Services Director Jen Della Valle presented the annual report of progress made on the
Strategic Plan goals in Fiscal Year 2024. She reviewed the achievements in the five focus areas: sustainability,
connected community, economic vitality, community safety and service excellence. Achievements included
two dozen tasks that had been completed, were on track to be completed on time, or have had progress
made ahead of schedule. The report also noted 10 tasks that needed an extended timeframe for completion.

BOARD OF COMMISSIONERS
TOWN OF HILLSBOROUGH, NORTH CAROLINA
Consistency Statement per Section 160D-605
Request to amend the Official Zoning Map for the Town of Hillsborough -
Waterstone South Planned Development District
September 9, 2024
The Board of Commissioners for the Town of Hillsborough has received and reviewed the request
from Capkov Ventures, Inc. and Woodsedge Properties, LLC to amend the town’s Official Zoning
Map as follows:
• Rezone approximately 98.948 acres from R1 (County), EDH-2 (County), and ESU (Town) to a
Planned Development (PD) district for apartments, townhomes, and various nonresidential uses,
such as medical, hospital, office, and neighborhood commercial
(Parcel Identification Numbers: 9873-42-2375; 9873-42-5271; 9873-42-5076; 9873-41-5972;
9873-41-6716; 9873-51-0737; 9873-50-3553; 9873-50-4152; and 9872-49-4729)
The Board of Commissioners has determined that the proposed rezoning is with the town’s
Comprehensive Sustainability Plan (CSP) because:
1. The proposed amendment is with the Land Use and Development chapter goal to “Ensure
that future growth and development, including infill and redevelopment, are aligned with
smart growth principles and consider infrastructure constraints such as water and
wastewater system capacity.”
Strategy: Develop and adopt plans that contribute to meeting preferred future land use
and growth patterns.
2. The proposed regulations advance identified goals and strategies found in the CSP and
promote public health, safety, and welfare by creating more diversity in the town’s housing
stock, creating more affordable housing options in the community, and adding commercial
development at Waterstone Drive and NC 86 S.
The foregoing consistency statement, having been submitted to a vote, received the following vote
and was duly adopted this 9th day of September in the year 2024.
Ayes: 5

I. Generally
a. Site plans and construction drawings for the development shall comply with these
conditions of approval, as well as any applicable development regulations for the Town of
Hillsborough that are in effect when the plans and/or drawings are submitted. When there
is a conflict between a condition of approval and the development regulations of the town,
the condition of approval shall govern.
b. The size of the townhome blocks, denoted as Blocks A, B, C, and D on the master plan, and
the number of units within them may be adjusted administratively with the Planning
Manager’s approval only if the overall acreage and density of the combined townhome
blocks are not changed.
c. Once construction on the project begins, the developer shall conduct a weekly inspection,
as needed, of the erosion control and stream protection measures throughout the
development of each phase to ensure that all the devices are working effectively. The
developer will notify Town Planning staff and neighbors within 500’ of the development
site(s) of the planned inspection schedule.
II. Affordable Housing
a. Fifteen percent (15%) of the total market rate homes in the development, including the
townhomes and multi-family apartment units, shall be affordable to those earning an
average of 80% or less of the median income. Median income shall be determined using
data from the US Department of Housing and Urban Development for the geographic
statistical area in which Hillsborough is located.
b. A deed restriction reserving the affordable apartment units for a period of ninety-nine (99)
years and requiring annual certification with the town of the number of affordable units
shall be recorded before a Zoning Compliance Permit will be issued for the first residential
unit. The deed restriction shall require the developer, its successors and/or assigns to
certify to the town in writing during the month of July of each year that they comply with the
affordability condition as of the date of the certification.
c. For the affordable townhome units, the developer shall prepare and submit an affordable
housing plan for the review and approval of the Planning Manager. The approved
affordable housing plan shall be recorded in conjunction with the plat(s) for the townhome
lots and these conditions of approval. The plan shall include the following information at a
minimum:

install a traffic signal at the intersection before the approval of the final Certificate of
Occupancy in Phase 2. If signalization has already been installed at Waterstone Parkway and
NC 86 S by another developer, the developer of Waterstone South shall not be responsible
for signalization at said intersection.
j. The applicant will construct a greenway trail within the NCDOT right-of-way from their
northern property line to Waterstone Drive conditioned on NCDOT approving the greenway
trail. In the event NCDOT approval is not forthcoming by the issuance of the last Certificate
of Occupancy in Phase 2 of the community, the applicant will proffer $187,000 for the future
acquisition and/or construction of a greenway trail connection adjacent to the community.
VI. Phasing
a. The Town of Hillsborough will not issue zoning compliance permits for the last 10 (ten)
dwelling units in a phase until the developer
i. completes, certifies, and submits for town acceptance of all public infrastructure (e.g.,
sidewalks, streets, trails, greenways, utilities) in said phase, and
ii. installs or provides adequate performance security for the installation of all
landscaping, street trees, and stormwater conveyances in said phase.
b. The development shall be constructed in three phases, with each phase of construction to
last no more than three years per phase for a total of nine years of construction:
i. Phase 1: 205 townhomes and 10,000 square feet of neighborhood commercial.
ii. Phase 2: 225 apartment units and 10,000 square feet of neighborhood commercial.
iii. Phase 3: 225 apartment units and 20,000 square feet of neighborhood commercial.
c. The developer shall coordinate with staff to create a mutually agreeable schedule for
infrastructure improvements, and the developer shall install or provide adequate
performance security for said improvements. However, the developer cannot post a

VII. Utilities ORDINANCE #20240909-6.A-1
a. As indicated on the approved Master Plan, a new sewer pumping station, associated force
main, and all appurtenances shall be constructed by the developer and dedicated to the
Town of Hillsborough by the developer after successful completion. The existing gravity
sewer to the Woodsedge Back and Nazarene Pumping Stations shall be redirected into this
new pumping station located at a site near or in the development as agreed to with the
Town of Hillsborough.
i. The new gravity sewers and sewer pumping station shall be designed to Town of
Hillsborough specifications and details including site layout, drive, fencing, and
station features.
ii. If the new pumping station is in a conspicuous location, something more than a
chain link fence may be required to soften the visual impact of the pumping station.
However, no landscaping may be placed within three feet of any piping or fencing.
b. The developer shall connect the project water main extension to the town’s existing water
distribution system at the general locations shown in the Master Plan. A minimum of two
connections is required.
i. The new water main shall be of a size and type acceptable to the Town of
Hillsborough and designed in accordance with the town’s specifications and details.
Final connection points shall be as shown on Exhibit C.1. The minimum size for any
main to be dedicated to the town is 8”.
c. The developer agrees to accelerate payment of System Development Fees (SDFs) sooner
than otherwise provided by statute for each planned phase upon its approval by the town
to provide better cash flow for downstream capital improvement projects that are needed
and will benefit the project. The SDFs shall be calculated based on the unit bedroom counts
for each phase of site plan approval, and site plan approval will not be issued for a phase
until the appropriate SDFs are paid. SDFs shall be those in effect at the time of payment.
d. The developer shall demolish the existing Nazarene and Woodsedge Back pumping stations
to specifications agreed upon with the town and the property owner of Woodsedge Mobile
Home Park after the new pumping station is fully certified and operational with redirected
flow from these existing pumping stations active with no apparent issues.

ii. The existing stations and force mains shall be flushed out. The station features, if
unable to be removed completely, shall be taken to 3 feet below grade. Any voids
shall be filled with excavatable flowable fill.
iii. The existing station sites shall be graded, seeded, and mulched to establish new
ground cover.
iv. Water meters for Block H will be released upon completion of the water and sewer
infrastructure required to serve the units in Block H and the stub to Worth Street.
This infrastructure is shown as magenta in the attached Exhibit C.1. Block H will
connect to the Town’s existing sewer that drains to Woods Edge Front Pump Station,
and no other blocks of the proposed development will be allowed to connect to the
Woods Edge Front Pump Station. The developer shall evaluate the capacity of the
Woods Edge Front pump station and make all upgrades needed to serve the
proposed development if upgrades are needed to meet the state’s minimum design
criteria for pump stations.
v. Water meters for Blocks A, B, C, D, E, F and G will be released upon completion of the
waterlines shown in orange in Exhibit C.1 as well as the abandonment of the existing
Nazarene and Woods Edge Back Pump stations into the new pump station shown in
Exhibit C.1.
vi. The developer shall make the connections shown in the green circles in Exhibit C.1 to
all waterlines in platted Town right-of-way and NC DOT right-of-way. The developer
shall make connections to existing Town waterlines on private property at the
locations shown with green circles if the Town provides documentation of deeded
and platted public utility easements at the proposed connection locations. If the
Town does not provide the required easement and plat information by construction
drawing approval of the proposed connection, the Town will require only a platted
and deeded stub to the edge of the subject development.
e. The developer shall enter into a Water and Sewer Extension Contract as typical with the
town. This contract shall provide the finer details of the design, permitting, construction and
acceptance details.
f. The developer shall contribute $250,000 to the cost of upgrading the Elizabeth Brady Pump
Station to handle the additional flow generated by the proposed project. This contribution
shall be made before the approval of the first site plan for the project and will be used by
the town to install upgraded instrumentation, monitoring equipment, and controls.
