The Board of Commissioners held a public hearing on a multi‑parcel Turkey Creek rezoning proposal that would change nearly 140 acres to a mix of single‑family, multifamily, commercial and light industrial conditional districts.

Planning staff summarized the request; the applicant described the plan as providing transitions between residential areas and existing industrial zoning, proposed a 10‑foot shared‑use path, and committed to buffers and HOA maintenance of landscaping. The planning board had recommended approval by a 4–1 vote.

Applicant representatives presented concept sketches showing a mix of carriage‑style single‑family detached homes, townhomes, multifamily districts, commercial nodes at Moncure‑Pittsboro Road, and industrial uses clustered away from Potterstone Village. They said the plan reduces the intensity of uses from an existing M‑2 industrial zoning to more compatible M‑1 and MR districts adjacent to residential neighborhoods and showed proposed 50‑foot and 40‑foot buffers.

Jason Hoyle, the operator of a business at 840 Moncure‑Pittsboro Road, spoke by phone and told the board his operation generates substantial heavy truck traffic and asked that future residential development be planned with knowledge that heavy truck traffic will continue in that corridor.

Commissioners asked about expected residential unit counts (the developer estimated roughly 290 units), whether affordable housing incentives had been considered and whether sewer capacity is available; developers said they would seek permits and construction in 2023–2024 pending sewer availability. Planning staff noted the town currently is at capacity for sewer service and that the property is in the service area once additional capacity is provided.

A motion on the item was made and seconded during the meeting (public comment concluded during the hearing); the board discussed conditions and consistency with draft plans. The record shows the board considered the item and took action by motion during the meeting.
