  • Greenway & Trails
    CHAPTER 6: GREENWAY & TRAILS A. Overview The Town of Cary envisions its greenway network as an emerald necklace that ties together the community’s parks, neighborhoods, schools, cultural sites, and business districts. In the nine years since the approval of the previous 2003 Parks, Recreation and Cultural Resources Facilities Master Plan, the Town has begun to achieve that vision of connectivity. The current greenway network has now grown to over 62 miles of trails. Where the Town’s greenway program once consisted of a series of isolated segments, it is transforming into a system of trails. The 2003 Master Plan also articulated the importance of environmental stewardship in the development of the trail network. Cary has applied sustainable design practice throughout all of its trail projects to maintain open space, wildlife corridors and habitat, use of native vegetation, and effective erosion control measures. Many of these practices have been incorporated into the Town’s greenway design standards and will be implemented in future designs. With regard to design standards, this plan re- articulates Cary’s commitment to the application of American Association of State Highway and Transportation Officials (AASHTO) and Americans with Disability Act (ADA) design standards. Although the Town has shown a commitment to greenway construction that rivals any other community in North Carolina, the citizens of Cary continue to demand greater connectivity and linkage to other communities, as well as to other regionally important trail systems. This is due in large part to Cary being the central jurisdiction within the Triangle Area. As such, the Town of Cary plays a crucial role in connecting regional, statewide, and national trails.

  • Mitigation for Secondary and Cumulative Impacts
    SECTION 6 Mitigation for Secondary and Cumulative Impacts The Town of Cary is a thriving community in the heart of the Triangle area of North Carolina, between the City of Raleigh and RTP. The Triangle area has repeatedly ranked among the top regions in the country in which to live or work, find a home or start a business, raise a family, or retire. Cary embraces the best of city life and small town environment by supporting the following values: Sense of security – continually ranks as one of the top 20 safest large cities nationally Livability – tree-lined streets and well-groomed subdivisions and office parks Vibrancy – home to world-class businesses and fast-growing Parks, Recreation, and Cultural Resources (PRCR) program that offers something for everyone Diversity – variety of demographics Proactive – progressive approach to protecting the environment, preserving open space, protecting habitat, and conserving drinking water To ensure a high quality of life for its residents and to continue to be an attractive place to live and raise a family, the Town is managing its growth using innovative planning approaches and techniques. The Town is always working to address environmental concerns related to open space, water and wastewater infrastructure, transportation, and stormwater. The Town has implemented programs to direct denser development to designated activity and employment centers, preserve open space, protect floodplain and riparian buffers, and maintain water quality through Erosion and Sediment Control and Stormwater Programs. This section identifies and discusses the federal, state, and local programs. These programs mitigate the potential SCI discussed in Section 5. 6.1 Summary of Federal and State Regulations and Programs There are several federal and state regulations and programs that mitigate impacts related to growth.

  • Peak Plan 2030: the Apex Comprehensive Plan Overview
    Apex Today Prepared for: Town of Apex 73 Hunter Street Apex, NC 27502 www.apexnc.org Prepared by: LandDesign, Inc. Kimley-Horn and Associates, Inc. February 7, 2013 TABLE OF CONTENTS INTRODUCTION PAGE 1 COMMUNITY PARTICIPATION PAGE 4 CONTEXT PAGE 4 ECONOMIC & DEMOGRAPHIC CONDITIONS PAGE 5 LAND USE PAGE 13 COMMUNITY CHARACTER PAGE 20 COMMUNITY FACILITIES PAGE 23 HISTORIC & CULTURAL RESOURCES PAGE 32 ENVIRONMENT & NATURAL RESOURCES PAGE 34 INTRODUCTION Since completion of the current Apex Comprehensive Plan in 2004, the nation suffered one of the worst economic and fiscal crises in recent history. In many communities economic stagnation resulted in declining home values, widespread foreclosures, limited consumption and high unemployment. High growth areas were especially hard hit. And while Apex can definitely be considered a high growth community with an average compounded annual growth rate of approximately 5% over the last ten years, the Town weathered the difficult economic downturn with encouraging resiliency. In fact, in a recently published study comparing the 2012 average assessed value to sales price ratio of homes in the Triangle, Apex’s homes retained their value better than all neighboring jurisdictions1. In addition, since 2004 the average single-family home price has risen from $178,800 to $249,274 today. Approximately 3,725 housing units have been built in Apex’s jurisdiction since 2004, with nearly 20% of those homes being built between 2008 and 2010. Not only have property values increased significantly, but the Town has continually added facilities and services to ensure a high quality of life for residents. Approximately 9,000 linear feet of new greenways have opened, four miles of sidewalk have been constructed, three parks, including Apex’s first dog park, have opened and nearly 60 miles of roadway have been improved including significant sections of the Apex Peakway.

  • Bathymetry of White Oak Creek, Jordan Lake: Fieldwork and GIS Approaches
    Bathymetry of White Oak Creek, Jordan Lake: Fieldwork and GIS Approaches Gus Elmore, Caitlin Gross, Carter Schmitt, Tyler Souza, and Vanessa Wignall UNC-Chapel Hill ENEC 698 Capstone lead by Kaylyn Gootman December 8, 2018 Abstract Jordan Lake is an artificial reservoir that currently functions as a source of flood control, recreation, wildlife conservation, and water supply. As a part of the Jordan Lake Nutrient Management Study, this research aims to determine the bathymetry and water quality of the White Oak Creek portion of the lake. Bathymetry data was collected continuously using a portable Garmin unit on three trips to White Oak Creek on October 7th, October 14th, and October 28th, 2018. Multiple sample points for water quality were also assessed on these trips. Bathymetric data was interpolated using GIS approaches to create a depth profile of White Oak Creek. Water quality parameters of dissolved oxygen, temperature, and turbidity were statistically analyzed to determine temporal trends. This data will be used by stakeholders of the Jordan Lake study to continue to monitor the lake, particularly in regards to nutrient concentrations. 1 Table of Contents 1.
