183 preliminary plat [C99-01(S)] for Phases V and VI of the Porters Landing Subdivision based on school adequacy issues. Specifically, the Cabarrus County School District does not have adequate facilities at this time to serve the estimated number of students who would be generated by the proposed development. Mr. Marshall stated the developer had expressed an interest in contributing $500.00 per lot for the 94 lots in Phases V and VI to be used to address school adequacy issues. There was discussion regarding the development of the Porters Landing Subdivision over the next several years, the increasing cost of building schools and the adequacy of the $500.00 per dwelling unit in addressing future school needs. Mr. Gaillard A. Mervin, Jr., Developer, described the planned phases of the Porters Landing Subdivision. Phase V will not begin until June 2001. However, design changes must be made to Phase IV at this time to provide access to the new phases. UPON MOTION of Commissioner Privette, seconded by Commissioner Carpenter and unanimously carried, the Board approved the appeal of the preliminary plat for Porters Landing Subdivision, Phases V and VI, contingent upon the execution by the developer of an agreement in the form and content consistent with that of Highland Creek and to be executed on the part of the County by the County Manager at that time. The agreement will provide for the payment of $500.00 per dwelling unit for Phases V and VI. Mr. Marshall gave a status report on the preparation of the Unified Development Ordinance that will further address the adequacy of public facilities. The second draft of the proposed ordinance is close to completion and will be provided to all elected boards and Planning Boards for review.
