Introduction The City of Havelock Land Use Plan * 1993 1993 CAMALand Use Plan Update Havelock • North Carolina CHAPTER 1: n General Introduction L n Important Note for Clarification UThe Defense Base Realignment and Closure Commission (BRAC) decisions made in the summerof 1993 Q are expected to significantly impact growth at Cherry Point Marine Corps Air Station's Naval Aviation Depot and the City of Havelock and its planning area. While the City is aware that significant change is likely to occur during the planning period, specific information was not avail able Q during the development of the Land Use Plan to be included in this document. As this information becomes available, the City of Havelock hopes to amend and update this plan to account and plan for this expected growth. A. Introduction to the Planning Process aThe 1992 Land Use Plan is designed to be used as a guide for the physical development of Havelock focusing on the upcoming ten year time frame. This Plan, along with responsible leadership in its a implementation, provides a meansby which the City's future growth can be successfully channeled and accommodated. The overall purpose of the Land Use Plan is to encourage the development of a safe, healthy, and economically sound living environment for the citizens of the City. The Land Use Plan a focuses on those factors which contribute to or hinder proper growth and development, and identifies those areas in which the City government can have a positive impact. The Land Use Plan is not the gospel, but, rather, it is a document which presents the City government's best, attempt at defining its "vision" for the future and suggests ways to attain that "vision." The attitudes and desires of City residents undergird the goals, policies and implementation recommendations which will be adopted into this document. The participation of Havelock's citizens has been an essential contribution to setting the course for future land development and environmental conservation activities. By preparing a Land Use Plan which is integrally tied to its precedent goals, objectives and planning policies and yet incorporates future goals and objectives, the old adage that "it is not enough to be what we have been" is underscored. Towards this end, one of the initial steps in this planning process was to define these future goals, to translate those goals into objectives by which they would be realized, and to establish policies and strategies by which the goals can be implemented for the betterment of the community of interest. In arriving at the set of goals and objectives which have been recommended for the Havelock Land Use Plan, three major and distinct efforts were undertaken in order to ensure that D the planning process proceeded along this rational line and with the assurance that the adoption of future land use recommendations would be constructed on a firm social, economic, moral and legal underpinning. Ir i 0 The Cox Company Introduction • 1-1 1993 CAMALand Use Plan Update Havelock • North Carolina The initial effort in this regard was to undertake a thorough review and analysis of all previous City plans and growth management documents. By carefully evaluating land use goals and objectives from earlier plans, the Havelock Board of Commissioners and Planning Board were able to assess the "suitability" and "workability" of past planning strategies. In doing so, past planning goals were then updated, refined and merged into the context of the current Plans study requirements. Secondly, the Havelock planning process incorporated a range of citizens' input and participation opportunities which enabled all interested parties to express their visions and expectations for the future of the City. A citizen's attitude survey was conducted as well as multiple work sessions with both public officials and private citizens. The consolidated findings were used by the City officials in making the final recommendations for the Plan. This effort complied with the requirements of the Coastal Area Management Act and other State guidelines affecting area -wide land use goals, objectives and implementation strategies for environmentally sensitive areas of the City's wetlands region. Thirdly, the Planning Board, City Staff and its Consultants kept a goals -oriented "vigil" during the development of the multi -faceted land use planning and growth management recommendations for the City. In doing so, they were able to maintain a high level of leadership and objective focus as the many "nuts and bolts" aspects of this Land Use Plan were being developed and as numerousland use alternatives were evaluated. The result of this thorough goals -directed planning effort yielded a more consistent land useplanning program and a moreefficient frameworkforthe future management of growth in Havelock. B. The Coastal Area Management Act The Coastal Area Management Act of 1974—commonly know as CAMA--established a cooperative program of coastal area management and planning between local governments and the State. Havelock has been an active and productive participant in the CAMA process since its inception. Land use planning lies at the center of Havelock's involvement with CAMA, inasmuch as it has provided City leaders an opportunity and responsibility to establish and enforce policies to guide land development on a 5-year cyclical basis. The State's CRC Land Use Planning Guidelines are very dear onits position regarding the importance of local planning: "Land development generally takes place as the result of decisions by private individuals and government. If left entirely to chance, the resulting pattern of development in a locality may well not be in the best overall community interest. In order to promote this community interest for both present and future generations, a land use plan is to be developed, adopted and kept current by the local governments in the coastal area. 0 The Cox Company Introduction • 1-2 1993 CAMALand Use Plan Update Havelock • North Carolina The land use plan is a framework that will guide local leaders as they make n decisions affecting development. Private individuals and other levels of government Uwill also use the plan to guide their land use decisions. Use of the plan by these groups will lead to the more efficient and economical provision of public services, the D protection of natural resources, sound economic development, and the protection of public health and safety. Havelock's leadership, through the CAMA land use planning process, has addressed many issues and has adopted policies that serve to guide the development of the City. This process recognizes th at many decisions affecting land development are made by other levels of government (regional, state, (Z federal), and that local policies must take account of and - harmonize with established state and ufederal laws. However, most land use decisions are primarily those of local relevance, concern and control. By comprehensively addressing these issues via the Land Use Plan, state and federal agencies will support the City's policies that deal with these issues. These agencies will also use the City land use plans and policies in making project consistency, funding and permit decisions. It is important to note that in the absence of a regularly updated and adopted Plan, the City relinquishes a numberof a local decision making responsibilities to State and Federal agencies which may, or may not, have the best interest of Havelock's citizens at heart. (� Pursuant to the established guidelines of the Coastal Area Management Act (as amended), the Land U Use Plan for Havelock is required by State statute to contain the following four basic minimum nelements: u0 a summary of data collection and analysis • an existing land use map • a land use and environmental policy discussion • a land classification map C Establishment of a Demographic and Land Use Data Base The data collection and analysis items required by CRC guidelines are designed to establish the information base necessary to make policy choices about future land use and development in the City. These items have been formulated so as not to place unnecessaryburdenonthe local planning resources. The data requirements can generally be fulfilled by utilizing existing local plans and studies including the previous Land Use Plan Updates, as well as information provided by the U.S. Census, regional planning bodies and State agencies. r� D. Establishment of Land Use and Environmental Goals and Policies �U( The City's Land Use Plan is required by LAMA to contain statements of local policy on those land use issues which will affect the community during the upcoming ten-year planning period. The major issues 0 The Cox Company Introduction • 1-3 1993 CAMALand Use Plan Update should include, but are not limited to: • Resource Protection • Resource Production and Management • Economic and Community Development • Public Participation • Storm Hazard Mitigation Havelock • North Carolina Rather than incorporating additional topical areas for major issues, the Planning Board has determined that the above categories are sufficient for this Plan Update. Other traditional planning topics such as transportation, recreation, education, employment and growth management controls have been integrated into the examination and discussions of the five major CAMApolicy categories. It is incumbent upon the drafters of the Land Use Plan to ensureto the greatest extent possible that there is consistency amongindividual policies developed in each policy category. Particular attention should be given to individual policies in the resource protection, resource production and management, and economic and community development categories. These three categories will often contain issues of overlapping as well as conflicting ideologies and philosophies. The result is that potentially competingand contradictory goals, policies and strategies mustbe forcefully addressed and sensitively resolved during the planning process. E. Public Participation in the Planning Process Public participation is the cornerstone of the planning process. In complying with CAMA planning guidelines, the Land Use Plan must document the means by which public involvement in the'land use plan update was accomplished. As a minimum, the CAMAmandates that the City's Plan must address the following public participation issues: • a description of means to be used for public education on planning issues; • a description of means to be used for continuing public participation in planning; and • a description of means to be used for obtaining citizen input in developing land use plan policy statements. In fulfilling these State planning guidelines s for public involvement, the City leadership has prepared policies based upon data analysis, land use inventories as well as detailed citizen input related to the best possible alternative for each land use issue. The Land Use Plan includes a description of the methods by which the City intends to implement its policy choices. In summary, a l l policies adopted by the City as a part of the Land Use Plan are designed to maintain consistencywith the overall policy adopted by the Coastal Resources Commission. The Cox Company Introduction • 1-4 I I 1993 CAMALand Use Plan Update Havelock • North Carolina Highlights of Changes 1986 -1992 Listed below are some of the more noticeable changes affecting the City of Havelock since the formulation of the previous Land Use Plan. • Population (inclusive of Cherry Point MCAS) rose to 20,268 persons, according to the 1990 US. Census. This is 2,446 persons more than the 1980 Census figure of 17,718 persons, but 3,700 persons fewer than predicted for 1990 in the last Land Use Plan.

One of the more meaningful accomplishments of the strategic planning process has been a greater understanding of how the thoughts and energies of the public and private sectors, local, regional, and state interests mustbe pooled to plan and resolve area issues. The Cox Company Introduction • 1-7 Chapter 2. Data Collection and Analysis The City of Havelock Land Use Plan • 1993 1993 CAMALand Use Plan Update Havelock • North Carolina CHAPTER 2: Data Collection and Analysis a Introduction DThe 1992 Land Use Plan update for the City of Havelock complies with the "Land Use Planning Guidelines" of the North Carolina Administrative Code (NCAC) Subchapter 7B as amended on October 1989. This section of the Code outlines the requirements of the Coastal Area Management Act (CAMA) established in 1974. It also "sets forth general standards for use by the Coastal Resources Commission in reviewing and considering local land use plans." The CRC updates its planning guidelines every five years and subsequently adds and deletes policy requirements. The first CAMALand Use Plan for the City of Havelock was prepared in 1976. The initial update was completed in 1981 and the second update was completed in 1986. The purpose of the update is primarily for the examination of existing policies and the evaluation of the relevancy and adequacy of the techniques for implementation based on demographic and physiographic changes over the past five years. Due to the recent decision by the military Base Realignment and Closure Commissionto expand Cherry nPoint, the City stands poised to develop and provide necessary services for all expected growth. The U recent transportation improvements in the City and openingof the Slocum Road access gate is the beginning of progressive activities to accommodate the anticipated population increase. Waste water plant expansion is planned. Residential and commercial developers are anticipating the growth and are preparing to build as necessary. City Hall will be expanded to provide better service to our �j citizens. �-+ A. Establishment of the Information Base The following information base is provided to establish a statistical foundation for use during the formation of goals, policies and implementation techniques. Information on population, housing, economicsand land use was obtained from a variety of reliable public and private sources. Most of the data related to demographics came from the recent U.S. 1990 Census of Population and Housing. Additional data was acquired from State and Local sources such as the North Carolina Statistical Abstracts. Where information specific to the City of Havelock was notavailable, Craven Countydata has been included. It should be noted that no employment statistics were available for the City of Havelock. All information on employment and manufacturing were tabulated only at the County Level. Windshield surveys and an analysis of building permit data were conducted to update existing land use patterns and classifications. Interviews and work sessions were conducted with various City staff as well as elected and appointed officials. Information for the period preceding the 1986 Land Use Plan was obtained from that document and is presented, in part, herein for comparison with more recent statistics. 0 The Cox Company Data Collection and Analysis • 2-1 0 1993 CAMALand Use Plan Update Havelock • North Carolina " Conditions: Population and Economy B. Present Co p y lv,l 1. Population �•I The main purpose of providing population projections in conjunction with the Land Use Plan is to Uestablish a demographic benchmark against which land use decisions regarding type, mix and character of real estate as well as potential impacts on Areas of Environmental Concemmay be tested. Population forecasting is, at best, an "educated guess." The population growth of Havelock during the past 50 years has been largely due to the military presence of the Marine Corps Air Station (MCAS) Cherry Point, which was established in 1941 and ' I annexed by the City on December 28,1979. The City's 1990 population of 20,268 persons includes both the military population of 11,978 persons and the civilian population of 8,290 persons. U I Of the total 20,268 Havelock residents reported in the 1990 Census, 59 percent resided on -station with 2,711 in military barracks and 9,267 in family housing. Havelock's off -station population accounts for a 31.8 percent increase in Craven County population figures, which have shown an overall increase of 14.8 percent. The City's policy of requiring developers to petition for annexation to receive sewer service has meant this growth has been in real terms and not as a result of annexing existing housing. Projections to the year 2000 indicate an increase to 23,820 people for the City, including the Cherry Point MCAS. See Table 2-1 for population trends for Craven County, the MCAS and the region. Regional Population 100D00 ✓0D00 c K_ a60D 60DOO n + IN ,. • 3. �— .�.—, 3 0 CrovenCou+ty lonoir Jonas Coneref County According to the 1990 Census, Havelock's male population currently outnumbers its females by 125.8 percent. Projections to the year 2000 indicate a continuation of this pattern, primarily due to the local military presence. This trend is opposite for North Carolina in general, as a female predominance results from the state and national demographic trend of females outliving males. Within the older T� age cohorts of Havelock, the results of longer female lifespans are witnessed; from age 55 and older, u there are morefemales per age category than males. See Table 2-2 for population by age and gender in Havelock and North Carolina. The current white/non-white population ratio is 3.12 to 1. The majority of the non -white population is African -American (18% of total population). There is also a significant presence of Native Americans (.83%) Asians (2.6%). Table 2-3 presents a comparison of racial composition by City, County and State.. Currently, the highest concentration of Havelock's residents occurs in the age group of 25 to 29 years of age. This is primarily due to the presence of young military personnel. There is also a significant The Cox Company Data Collection and Analysis • 2-2 0 n 1993 CAMALand Use PIan Update Havelock • North Carolina numberof elementary school age and younger children. Ages 1 to 5 constitute 13.35% of the total population, and ages 6 to 11 constitute 10.45% of the total population. Many of these children are probably the children of military personnel. The large number of children emphasizes the need for continued maintenance of school facilities, and possible future expansion as needs arise. 'Beach" traffic plays an important economic function by bringing tourists through Havelock, but the City is not as affected as are nearby beach communities, such as Emerald Isle. The 1990 Census listed 18 housing units in Havelock as "seasonal, recreational or occasional use;' compared with only 2 such " housingunits counted in the 1980 Census. Motel rooms and temporary units increased by 59 to a total of 362 with the opening of the Hospitality House on Brown Boulevard in 1991. Many of these rooms are used year-round by military personnel and their families while in transition. A consensus of the Planning Board and Board of Commissioners and a majority of the people polled in two attitude surveys reveals that a modest rate of population growth is desirable, as compared to the rapid pace of growth in the late 1970s to the mid 1980s. Maintaining a modest growth rate (a one to two percent annual increase) over the next decade will depend largely on the following factors: 1. Arelatively stable, even if slightly declining, military population. 2. A stable and slightly growing civilian, contract and construction employment at MCAS Cherry Point. 3. The employment of the increasing numberof younger retiring military in local manufacturing and service jobs. j1 4. A systematic annexation of eight developed and developing areas �( containing an _estimated 2,060 people plus available vacant lots. (1 The population projections to the year 2000 were made assuming the five foregoing factors would oo=. u A modest addition of 50 .new dwelling units annually to the planning area, the average rate experienced during the last five years, would add approximately 150 people per year, a 1.8 percent annual rate of increase. This modest rate of growth has two very positive implications, as opposed to a higher rate of growth: 1) a third less area will be needed to absorb development - stretching the time before development pressures could adversely impact fragile areas and land with constraints, and 2) Q the City will bebetter able to direct resources (includingstaff time) to improvingolder sectionsof the City and preparing for future annexations. a. Population Summary The analysis of existing and projected population figures in the City of Havelock suggests the following trends: 1. The large number of school age children will necessitate a continued maintenance of school facilities and a possible expansion of these facilities in the future. L 0 The Cox Company Data Collection and Analysis • 2-3 I 1993 CAMA Land Use Plan Update Havelock • North Carolina 0 2. The largest group of people are 25 to 29 years of age. Most of the people in this category are probably connected with the military base. The relatively low number of elderly people may or may not increase in the coming years. 3. Seasonal population is primarily due to traffic passing through Havelock to the nearby 01 beaches. There is very little economic impact from these seasonal visitors. 2. Housing According to the U.S. Census definition, a household includes all persons who occupy a single housing unit. A housing unit is defined as a single room or group of rooms occupied as a separate living quarter; single family detached homes, townhouse units, apartments, and condominiumsare all considered single housing units. Persons living in group quarters or institutions, including hospitals, asylums and jails are not considered members of households. Since 2,718 persons live in group quarters in Havelock in military quarters),13A% of the population are therefore not counted as members of a household. The City of Havelock has 3.10 personsper household. This numberis higher than the 2.54 personsper household figure recorded for North Carolina. See Table 2-4 for information outlining household characteristics 3. Economic Analysis Ua. General Military and civilian payrolls, contract services, and construction contracts make a tremendous impact onthe economyof Havelock. Changes in missionsand numbers of personnel onCherry Point Base make a further impact on the real estate market, the construction industry and use of local services in particular. Recent industrial development has created new manufacturing jobs for area residents. ' The location of Jasper Textiles, Inc. in the new 50 acre Havelock Industrial Park, the R. A. Precision companyand the United Parcel Service operation have been major additions to the growth of the economy. Unemployment figures in Craven County show minor fluctuations over the last five years. The unemployment rate dropped to a five year low of 3.5 percent in 1989. It rose slightly to 4.7 percent in 1990 and this gradual increase is expected to have continued to the present. The unemployment figures L are higher by just over half a percentage point when compared to the average State figure of 4.1 percent in 1990. b. Cherry Point Marine Corps Air Station The Environmental Scan for the Craven County 2001 strategic plan (October 1988) included a thorough analysis of the Craven County employment picture. The analysis pointed to the overwhelming 0 The Cox Company Data Collection and Analysis • 2-4 I 1993 CAMA Land Use Plan Update Havelock • North Carolina economic impact of the Cherry Point Marine Base to the region, county and especially the City of Havelock. The Scan described well the military presence this way: "Since 1985, the national active duty military rate has been 9 per 1000 population. Craven's 1987 rate was 136 per 1000 population while the Havelock ratio was 465 per 1000 population." (p. 3-19) Military and civilian payrolls, contract services, and construction contracts make a tremendous impact on the area economy. Changes in missions and numbers of personnel on the Marine Base greatly impact the local economy. Payrolls decreased from $447 million in 1985 to $377 million in 1990. They have risen again to the projected 1992 amount of $600 million. The earlier period of decrease mirrors the dropping rate of building permit activity shown later in this chapter. Decreased numbersof military personnel during the same period is also evident in the first ever decrease in the numberof mobile homes. The Gulf War in 1991 and the Air Station's important role in it was highly visible by the number of temporarily vacant businesses and reported increase in homes for sale during and following that period when the Marines were overseas. Cherry Point brings a total of nearly 45,000 personnel to the City limits. Employment in the Naval Aviation Depot rose steadily during the 1980's to a high of 3350. It then dropped nearly 10 percent in ,1990-91 to 3090. However, a slight rebound to 3148 employees had occurred by the start of 1992. According to information released to local officials by Cherry Point officials in January 1992, this level of employment is expected to remain fairly consistent for the next several years. It should be noted that recent military Base Realignment and Closure Commission hearings indicated a substantial increase in military personnel to be located at the MCAS Cherry Point. The City strongly supports this increase. For more specific facts relating to expenditures and the total economic impact which the MCAS has on the City and County, see Table II- which is taken from the 1993 Regional Economic Impact booklet published by the MCAS. C. Commerce The number of business establishments operating in Craven County have been steadily increasing by as much as 10 percent (1986 and 1987) over the past ten years. The recent trend indicates a more modest increase of just over 1 percent between 1988 and 1989. The annual payroll also steadily increased for 1985-1989, at an average of 13.25% per year.

The greatest increase of just under 7 percent occurred between 1986 to 1987. The trend indicating steady increases in per capita income seems to be continuing. The average annual increase hovers at or around the current inflation rate. The MCAS indicates a total 1993 fiscal year salary figure of $422,228,200. ' 1 The County'sbusinesseshave employed a varying number of personsas warranted by local and national economic conditions. Over the past five years, the firms have employed a high of 30,880 persons in 1989 and a low of 28,666 in 1986. A slight fall of about 1.5 percent occurred between the years of 1989 and 1990. A corresponding rise in the unemployment rate of 1.2 percent occurred during this time frame as well.

Tax Base The estimated total value of the City's tax base for the 1992-93 fiscal year stands at $251,500,000. It is expected that the new Industrial Park Subdivision and Jasper Industries will add to this base for the following year. For fiscal year 1993-94, other factors also have the potential to increase the tax base. j� These factors are mostly 1991 legislative changes that will be in effect in 1993.

Employment Employment figures in Craven County show minor fluctuations over the past five years. The current trends indicate a steady incline in the unemployment rate. Employment for the Countyhas decreased by 34 persons.

Existing Land Use uThe City of Havelock Land Use Plan * 1993 I 0 I 1993 CAMALand Use Plan Update CHAPTER 3: Existing Land Use Analysis Summary of Existing Land Use UA. Introduction Havelock • North Carolina Q A major element in the formulation of the Land Use Plan Update is an understanding of the land use changes which have taken place over the five year interim. It is important to understand the existing trends and patterns of development when designing new goals, policies and implementation techniques. D The future development patterns and growth management strategies for any vacant property or infill development will be greatly influenced by the City's distribution, pattern of development and concentration of existing land uses. The patterns of development are greatly influenced by the Marine Air Station. For example, recent decisions regarding the expansion of the Base have caused the residential market to strengthen due to the influx of marine personnel. The land use impacts caused by the base are the results of the federal government only. The City of Havelock has no say in the a development and/or growth of the Base. It should be noted, however, that the City fully and wholeheartedly supports the expansion of the facility. The following section serves to outline eight existing land use patterns: central business district, residential, commercial/industrial, n recreational/cultural, transportation, communications/utilities, government/institutional and vacant/undeveloped land. L1. Residential The land use survey included a count of housing by type within twelve neighborhood study areas. The City consisted of study areas 1 through 9 and its extraterritorial area when housing counts were taken in 1962 and 1974. Expansion of the extraterritorial area after 1974 required adding three neighborhood n study areas for the 1986 land use survey. The most recent count retains the twelve areas for comparative analysis of residential development patterns over time. Eastern sections of the planning area saw the most construction activity. Ninety-seven units were constructed within four active subdivisions in Area 6 (McCotter); followed by Area 8 (Hollywood Boulevard) with 65 new homes added in the South Forest and Foxcroft subdivisions. The Western sections of the planning area saw a total of 93 new housing units in the same period. Wolf Creek subdivision in Area 7 gained 51 homes, followed by 21 new homes in Westbrooke subdivision (Area 12, on 70 West), and another 21 new homes in the Stonebndge Landing development (Area 6, Ketner Heights). Lot sizes for single-family homesbuilt within active subdivisions vary from7,000 to 20,000 squarefeet; all are within the City and are served by public water and sewer systems. New townhouses and apartments built within the last five years have added 199 newhousingunits to the available housing stock. The preferred design of these homes has been a two or three unit single floor building typical of Q Village Park and the Witten Circle area. Single-family and multi -family housing developments converted 112 acres of vacant land from 1986 to 1991, averaging a density of 4.0 units per acre. U The Cox Company Existing Land Use • 3-1 0 I it I 0 u 1993 CAMALand Use Plan Update Havelock • North Carolina As was mentioned in the introduction, the recent decision to expand the Marine Facility has caused great demand in the residential sector of land use. Marine personnel movements can cause great fluctuations in the availability of housing stock. 2. Commercial An additional 18 acres of commercial and office development over the past five years raises the total acreage in this land use category to 296 acres. This figure does not include redeveloped properties. Some new additions to the retail and service sectors include the expanded mini -storage warehouse along McCotter Boulevard near Brown Boulevard, the Hospitality House located in the same area, and the newFood Lion and Kerr Drug shopping center on the southeastern edge of Havelock. To the north of the City, a new Holiday Inn and Shoney's restaurant joined Westbrooke Shopping Center. As predicted in earlier plans, the area near the intersection of NC 101 and McCotter Boulevard has attracted neighborhood service businesses. A day care center, neighborhood convenience store and service center with video rentals, laundry, pizza shop and mini -storage warehouse have developed there to serve the growing residential areas of East Havelock. Main Street has also changed since the last land use plan update. The Stallings Brothers Furniture building was lost to fire and the Havelock Drive -In theater was lost to obsolescence. Cherry Plaza has been recently renovated and will be reopened in the near future. Occupancy in this Plaza is currently proposed at a high level. The Planning Board has expressed concern over an increasing number of older deteriorating commercial buildings. Color slides were taken during the windshield survey to document some of these conditions and to illustrate where redevelopment opportunities are possible. 3. Industrial Efforts of the Craven County Economic Development Commission and the City to attract new industry are beginning to yield results. R.A. Precision's opening and expansion at the former Blue Bell cut-n-sew operation on Belltown Road and the United Parcel Service distribution center added half of the 12 acres in this category. jasper Textile Industries, Inc. in the Havelock Industrial Park make up the balance. 4. Recreational and Cultural The greatest increase in developed acreage came with the development of the City's new50 acre park located between Roger Bell School and the Havelock Industrial Park. Another 30 acres was needed to develop sites for five new churches in East Havelock. The proposed Alfred A. Cunningham Museum is scheduled to locate on 67 acres of federal property, used Q until the mid 1970s as the old flat tops family housing area, opposite the Main Gate. This property i s currently open space used informally for outdoor recreation. 0 The Cox Company Existing Land Use • 3-2 Ili 0 1993 CAMALand Use Plan Update Havelock • North Carolina S. Transportation, Communications and Utilities This land use category generally increases in proportion to the amount of land needed for other developed land use categories since it includes street and utility right-of-ways necessary for infrastructure. The amount of land in this category increased from 681 acres to 732 acres, a 6.9 percent change in 5 years. 6. Governmental and Institutional (� The new 30 acre Gurganus Elementary School campus northwest of Havelock was the sole addition to U this land use category, raising the total for the category to 185 acres, a 19.4 percent increase. a7. Vacant and Undeveloped Land The following areas are characterized by their lack of substantial development: 1) the Croatan National Forest, 2) restricted wetlands and waters, and 3) other vacant, barren or undeveloped lands. • Croatan National Forest o There were no changes in the holdings of the Croatan National Forest over the past five years. A 160 acre exchange of National Forest property located on the southeastern edge of the City and fronting on U.S. 70 was rejected in 1988. According to the District a Ranger, the exchange was canceled after concernswere raised about possible negative impacts on wetlands and wildlife habitats within the targeted area. u • Restricted Wetlands and Water Areas U Approximately 600 acres within the Planning Area (excluding Cherry Point) are located within 100-year floodplain areas as identified on flood insurance rate maps published by the Federal Emergency Management Act. 0 B. Significant Land and Water Use Compatibility Problems A land use compatibility problem generally concerns land use types which somehow restrict expansion or additional investment onadjacent properties with other land uses. The elimination of land and water use compatibility problemsis a primary goal of the CAMAregulations and guidelines set by the Coastal Resource Commission. The City of Havelock has adopted and incorporated these regulations into its land use policies to ensure consistencywhile also allowing some local flexibility in determining growth management needs and strategies. The City still has lands available within its boundaries to sustain modest growth from development The City supports future land development in sensitive areas such as Areas of Environmental Concern as long as such development doesnot have significant and potentially negative impacts onland, air or water resources. Such policies keep in mind the balance between resource protection and management The Cox Company Existing Land Use • 3-3 I CI U I I I 0 I 0 iv 1993 CAMALand Use Plan Update Havelock • North Carolina and continued economic growth and reflect the general use standards of the North Carolina Administrative Code (as amended). The Marine Corps Air Station and the Croatan National Forest are critically important national assets requiring wise land stewardship decisions to protect them from costly and inappropriate encroachment by private development. Both the Air Station and the National Forest have undertaken comprehensive planning efforts to protect their varied interests. The City should adopt policies to reinforce their planning efforts and insure an appropriate development pattern. It should be noted, however, that all property and/or uses within these lands are federally regulated and controlled. The City has no authority over "on -base" development or growth. C. Major Problems from Unplanned Development • Noise Zones The construction of new homes within high noise zones and areas with high crash potential has ceased. This is one result of the cooperative efforts between the City and the military to implement one of the primary AICUZ objectives to plan and separate new housing areas and other sensitive land uses for primary aircraft flight zones and high noise areas. The City has acted to develop compatible land uses. These include the new recreation and industrial parks. • Commercial/Service Core The commercial/service core of the City has stretched from three to five miles along U.S. 70 since the mid -seventies. In the process its appearance and functional characteristics have improved in several ways. However, East Havelock's lack of common traffic access controls exhibits the plights of a standard strip development. These include traffic congestion and signage clutter. D. Areas Experiencing or Likely to Experience Major Land Use Changes An equal concentration on the revitalization of existing older areas of the City and on infill development of new commercial establishments should be promoted to provide for an equitable distribution of construction and economic activity. Plans for strategic development should be drafted, supported, and implemented to ensure this balance. Any future annexation contemplated by the City Council will involve planning for the development of these areas to ensuregrowth compatible with the City proper. It is the policy of the City of Havelock to balance the costs and impacts of these land use decisions to the benefit of the general health, safety and welfare of the City's citizens. Should the next 5 to 10 years see the City undertake annexation and extension of wastewater collection mains northwestwardly to serve existing developments, additional areas near the new Gurganus Elementary School grounds and Greenfield Boulevard area will likely see residential development The Cox Company Existing Land Use • 3-4 0 I r� C C I u 0 G u 0 1993 CAMALand Use Plan Update Havelock • North Carolina proposals. Active subdivision within the City limits suchas Stonebridge Landingand Wolf Creek will continue to construct homes. The opening of the new back gate to Cherry Point and the potential creation of an interchange with the Havelock Bypass would bring significant development pressures to those areas and nearby lands further to the north of the City. A CommunityDesign Plan is currently being drafted for the City. This plan will define more specific land use, traffic circulation patterns, and urban design plans for the area. The pending update of the Thoroughfare Plan and expected assistance for the N.C. State School of Design in drafting the Community Design Plan will provide a timely opportunity to examine the growth patterns currently affecting the City. The development of the Havelock By-pass would bring the greatest changes to the planning area. The Land Classification Map suggests a possible location for a connection with McCotter Boulevard. This plan offers the opportunity to construct a planned chopping center of office park at the southern gateway of the City. Wetland restriction and uniquewildlife habitat in the vicinity may preclude such a plan. The Air Museumand private redevelopment of the older commercial properties near the center of town will likely bring a substantially new face to those areas.

Constraints: Land Suitability The City of Havelock Land Use Plan • 1993 f�J 1993 CAMA Land Use Plan Update Havelock* North Carolina O • CHAPTER 5: Constraints: Land Suitability The following section analyzes the general suitability of the undeveloped lands in the City of D Havelock and its surrounding extra -territorial jurisdiction. The accompanying maps illustrate the location of the potential constraints to land suitability. The categories include: (� 1) Physical Limitations for Development including natural and man-made hazard u areas, areas with soil limitations, sources and estimated quantity and quality of water supply, and areas containing excessive (>12%) slopes. 2) Fragile Areas including estuarine waters and estuarine shorelines, public trust waters, 404 wetlands, areas identified by the North Carolina Natural Heritage Program and other areas containing fragile resources not covered by a specific regulation. 3) Areas with Resource Potential containing productive agricultural, forest, and fishlgamelands and other non -intensive outdoor recreation lands. Much of the information contained in this chapter has remained unchanged since the 1986 Plan due to the relative stability of geologic features and resources. The information has been thoroughly verified in all cases, and updated when necessary. Policies related to the hazard areas are contained in the Policy Chapter under Section E (Coastal Storm Hazard Mitigation Planning Activities and Studies). I. Physical Limitations For Development A. Hazard Areas 1. Natural Hazards The flood insurance rate maps (FIRMS) as dictated and outlined by the Federal Emergency Management Agency (FEMA) indicate that several areas within Havelock are classified as Zone A. This classification designates areas which are subject to inundation by a flood with a frequency of 100-years. The dominant source of flooding is caused by storm surge and riverine flooding, according to the Flood Insurance Study (September 23, 1985). There are no areas within the Zone C or Zone V classification. These are areas subject to flooding at a frequency of 500 years and areas subject to coastal erosion caused by intense wave action, respectively. The City contains five areas which are subject to hazardous flooding as classified under Zone A. Storm surge affects Slocum Creek, the Southwest prong of Slocum Creek and Hancock Creek; riverine flooding from heavy rainfall occurs on the East prong of Slocum Creek and the tributary Joe's Branch, the Southwest prong of Slocum Creek, and Tucker Creek Overdevelopment in these areas may be costly either to human welfare or existing development. The Cox Company Constraints: Land Suitability • 5-1 u 1993 CAMA Land Use Plan Update Havelock* North Carolina DThe flood insurance maps do not reflect localized flooding problem areas caused by rain storms, poor drainage, drainage obstructions and level terrain. The Department of Planning and Inspections is responsible for enforcement of the Flood Damage Prevention Ordinance. The ordinance regulates fill and building activities within identified flood plains n 2. Man -Made Hazards (� Currently the primary man-made hazard located within the City are related to aircraft noise and aircraft crash hazards from the Cherry Point military base. An update of the 1981 Air Installation Compatible Use Zone (AICUZ) study is expected in 1993. The current overlay zoning ordinance and map and policies dealing with incompatible development activities will need to be reviewed and updated. rj It is likely that the noise and accident potential zones have changed since the last AICUZ study, due to �! aircraft mission adjustments since 1981. 0 B. Areas with Soil Limitations The U.S. Soil Conservation Service published detailed soils maps for Craven County and the Havelock area in August 1973. Most of the 39 soil mapping units exhibited severe restrictions for septic tanks because of wetness hazards or high ground water levels. The soils falling into this limited development classification are listed in the Craven County Soils Survey. The City of Havelock requires homes and businesses inside the City limits to be connected to the City sewer system. Poor drainage and septic tank problems have limited development of new subdivisions northwest of the west prong of Slocum Creek, an area having high ground water and lacking sufficient natural slopes. A more extensive discussion of soil limitations on septic tank use in the Havelock area n may be found in the 201 Wastewater Facilities Plan (Moore, Gardner, and Associates, 1976, as i I amended). C. Sources and Estimated Quantity and Quality of Water Supply Havelock currently obtains its potable water from the Yorktown Aquifer Formation, with wells and treatment plants at Lynnwayne Circle and Brown Boulevard. Protection from development, improvement, and expansion of the City's public water system is a high priority concern of the Board of Commissioners and Planning Board. D. Areas Where the Predominant Slope Exceeds 12 Percent Havelock currently contains only minor areas containing slopes of 12% or greater. These areas are isolated areas near Slocum Creek and the east and west prongs of Slocum Creek. Development of these areas will be monitored through building permit and sedimentation control plan reviews by the Department of Planning and Inspections. At this time, the City does not foresee the need for bulkhead construction or other slope stabilization measures beyond the requirements set forth by the adopted ordinances. 0 The Cox Company Constraints: Land Suitability • 5-2 I 1993 CAMA Land Use Plan Update DII. Fragile Areas Havelock- North Carolina Fragile areas may be defined as areas which could sustain considerable damage from unplanned or otherwise inappropriate development. There are four defined fragile areas existing in Havelock. They include: 1) Public Trust Waters, 2) Coastal Wetlands, 3) Estuarine Waters and 4) Estuarine j1 Shorelines. These areas are considered to be among the most productive natural environments within (� Havelock. There are no ocean hazard AEC areas in Havelock. The preservation and protection of. the estuarine waters and adjacent shorelines are strictly regulated both by established Federal and State guidelines as well as the policy statement specified in this document. Please refer to Section A of Chapter VIII of this document for a comprehensive review of the fragile areas listed above. 3. Other Natural Resource Designations Natural resource designations falling under this category include 404 Wetlands regulations as identified by the Fish and Wildlife National Wetlands Inventory and the Threatened and Endangered Species Profiles. Coastal or 404 wetlands are salt marshes or other regularly flooded marsh areas containing predescribed plant species such as cat -tail, bulrush, and cord grass. Shorelines along Slocum and Tucker Creeks have characteristic coastal wetland plant species. Recently, the Division of Marine Fisheries designated portions of both creeks as Primary Nursery Areas. There are fragile natural areas within the Croatan National Forest and in the remaining bottom land hardwood swamps of Slocum Creek and Hancock Creek. Within these areas, three threatened or endangered animal species have been identified: the red -cockaded woodpecker, the American n alligator, and the Neuse River waterdog. Further information on these species may be found in the i Threatened and Endangered Species Profiles of North Carolina. B. Cultural Resource Fragile Areas Information on historic and cultural resources in the City of Havelock is being sent from the North Carolina Department of Cultural Resources. Such resources are made pursuant to Section 106 of the National Historic Preservation Act of 1966 and the Advisory Council on Historic Preservation's Regulations for Compliance with Section 106, codified at 36 CFR Part 800. III. Areas With Resource Potential A. Productive and Unique Agricultural Lands There were no farming activities noted within Havelock's planning area in the 1986 land use survey. Policies concerning productive agricultural lands are not necessary at this time. The City does, however, feel the need to provide policy direction on this subject in the event annexation may result in farmlands falling under City jurisdiction. 0 The Cox Company Constraints: Land Suitability • 5-3 1993 CAMA Land Use Plan update Havelock • North Carolina B. Forest Lands The City of Havelock borders the Croatan National Forest, which contains significant areas of prime forest land. The proper management of these forest areas is critical to the economic well-being of the City. The management plan for the forest considers the conservation of special and unique habitats. C. Productive Water Resources There are currently no commercial fishing operations of any type within the Havelock planning area. In the event of commercial and/or recreational fishing occurring in significant quantities, the City shall support any and all applicable Federal, State and Local regulations in an effort to preserve the sensitive environmental resource base. D. Primary and Secondary Nursery Areas The Division of Marine Fisheries designated portions of Slocum and Tucker Creeks as Primary Nursery Areas for certain finfish and shellfish species that are dependent on abundant organisms within these nearby coastal wetlands. Specific information indicating exact location of these water bodies may be found in the North Carolina Fisheries Rules for Coastal Waters (current issue). E. Mining Lands The City of Havelock contains no deposits of sufficient size for commercial mining operations. The Cox Company Constraints: Land Suitability • 5-4 Chapter 6.

Water Treatment and Distribution u The most recent addition to the City's water treatment system was a new treatment plant near Brown Boulevard, completed in 1990. This plant added pumps, water lines and a 1,000,000 gallon underground storage tank to the existing 400,000 gallon elevated tank capacity. As of June 30,1991, the City's water system was characterized by the following: Miles of water main: 56.61 Number of service connections: 3,436 Number of fire hydrants: 351 Daily average consumption in gallons: 1,073,000 Maximum daily capacity of plant in gallons: 2,625,000 2. Sewage Treatment Plant The City of Havelock ownsand operates a 2.25 million gallon per day Y Y hydraulic capacity nitrification wastewater treatment plant. The daily average treatment is roughly 986,400 gallons, serving 3,302 customerson49.91 miles of sanitary sewer lines. Current discharge limits of 1S million gallons per day u are established by the N.C. Division of Environmental Management (DEM). The City has requested a variance of its NPDES discharge permit renewal from DEM to increase its discharge to Slocum Creek to 2.25 million gallons per day under more stringent ammonia and phosphate limitations. 3. Solid Waste Since November of 1991, the City only handles yard trimmings, used furniture and used appliances. A contract was established with the Craven County landfill and private haulers (ARS) to take care of all other solid waste. The City deposits the furniture and appliances at a transfer station located between Havelock and New Bern (outside the City limits), and deposits the yard trimmings at a composting site in New Bern. The Craven Countylandfill, which has an unrestricted permit life, has an actual life of 13 years. The r� facility uses scales to estimate daily landfill tonnage, and uses private and public haulers to collect usolid waste from the County. Waste generated at Cherry Point MCAS is transported to the Craven (� landfill and accounts for approximately 9 percent of total solid wastes in Craven County. u 0 The Cox Company Constraints: Carrying Capacity Analysis 0 6-1 11 0 1993 CAMALand Use Plan Update Havelock* North Carolina 4.

Police, Fire and Rescue Services Havelock currently maintains a Police force of twenty-one swomfull-time officers, includingthe Police Chief, and six part time officers. The Department supportsseven civilian employees including the Animal Control officer and support staff. The City operates onevolunteer fire station staffed by approximately 27firefighters. The equipment is believed to be in adequate condition with some updating required in the near future. Rescue Squad services are provided by seven location dispersed throughout the City and County. Six of the seven are staffed by volunteer rescue workers. The facilities are located in Havelock New Bern, Bridgeton, James City, Fort Barnwell, Cove City, and Vanceboro. The Craven Regional Medical Center supports the only paid Emergency Medical Service. The City and County have installed a "911 enhanced" version. This system is served by one centralized system which utilizes back-up computers in New Bern, Havelock, and Craven. 7. Primary Roads U.S. 70 between Havelock and New Bern is a part of a major transportation corridor to the Atlantic Coast and to Raleigh.

The 1990 Censusindicates a population of 20,268 persons for the City. Population projections to the year 2000 indicate an increase to approximately 23,820 persons. Services in the City of Havelock are generally adequate to handle the needsof the current population. uHowever, plans to upgrade existing capacities to ensure an adequate carrying capacity for any future increase in population are listed below for each public service, if applicable. 1. Water Treatment and Distribution The number of customers serviced by the City's water treatment facility grew from 2,693 persons in June 1986 to 3,436 personsin June 1991, an increase of 743 persons (27% increase). Despite the new treatment plant near Brown Boulevard to accommodate these increases and upgrade the system in general, the City plans more improvements in the comingfive years. These improvements include the expansion of water mains and fire hydrants installations and fundingan elevated storage tank at the Industrial Park to supplement water pressure for additional manufacturing sites. The current system has sufficient capacity to accept the projected modest growth of SM housing units during the next ten years plus 136 new customers from projected annexations, approximately 650,000 gallons per day total increase. This projected increase would still leave an estimated 1,000,000 gallons per day left for use. 2. Sewage Treatment Plant Future wastewater treatment plant expansion plans include increased efforts to comply with phosphorus removal and increasing the discharge limitation to 1.9 million gallons per day. These plans, along with the construction of a new outfall line to the Neuse River to meet with requirements, could exceed a cost of $6 million. Should the N.C. Division of Environmental Management not change its requirement for the City's wastewater to discharge into the Neuse River, the City will pursue an agreement whereby its treated waste will be pumped to the Cherry Point military base's treatment plant, where a common force main to the Neuse River may be utilized instead of a separate line. Future annexations and support of modest growth in Havelock will be affected by the outcome of this proposal. Financially, the City has maintained and expanded its wastewater treatment plant with its Capital Reserve Fund and Enterprise Fund Revenues without heavy reliance on General Fund contributions. Should the above major expenditures be required, the City will need to consider various additional The Cox Company Estimated Demand • 7-1 1993 CAMA Land Use Plan Update Havelock- North Carolina financing options including shared outfall line construction costs with Cherry Point, raising connection fees and charges and delaying major annexations. A Sewer Bond Issue is another possible alternative for raising the necessary capital. 3. Solid Waste Acontract was established with the Craven Countylandfill and private haulers (ARS) to take care of all other solid waste, beginningin November of 1991. The Craven Countylandfill, which has an unrestricted permit life, has an actual life of 13 years. Waste generated at Cherry Point MCAS is transported to the Craven landfill and accounts for approximately 9 percent of total solid wastes in Craven County. It is estimated that the County Landfill is sufficient to handle the waste from Havelock for at least the next five years. 4. Schools Two elementary schools have been added to the Craven County school system since the last land use Yj plan. The Rodger Bell Elementary School has been operating for nearly four years, and the W. Jessie Gurganus Elementary School is in its second year of operation.

Police, Fire and Rescue Squad Services Existing police, fire and rescue services are believed to be inadequate for the next five years assuming the anticipated MCAS expansion takes place as planned. The Police Department foresees the need for an additional five full-time swornofficers. With the addition of this personnel, the Department will also need five, fully equipped cruisers and two civilian support staff. The Rescue Department is sufficiently outfitted with equipment, however, and additional Emergency Medical Technician- Intervenous (EMTI) will most likely be necessary. The Fire Department will require an additional pumper and substation assuming the increase in growth occurs as expected. 7. 1kansportation Projects listed in the State Transportation Improvement Program (TIP) for the Havelock area in the next five years include nine miles of a fourland divided highway on the Havelock Bypass (U.S. 70) and pavement improvements on SR 1149 from New Bern to the Slocum Creek Bridge at Havelock.

Goals, Objectives and Policies u Q G uThe City of Havelock Land Use Plan • 1993 0 LI 1993 CAMA Land Use Plan Update Havelock • North Carolina CHAPTER 8: 1 Goals, Objectives and Policy Statements Introduction Havelock's Land Use Plan is intended to be an expression of what the community wants to be and how it wants to appear. Simply stated, it is both a "vision for our future" and a means of achieving that vision. The foundation of the Land Use Plan Update is its commonly -held goals and objectives for the City. Since all future land use decisions will rest on this foundation, it is important these goals be clear, comprehensive, and reflective of the community's desires and the State's legislative requirements. In turn, these goals and objectives have been developed into statements of planning policy addressing the specific land useissues which will affect Havelock during the upcomingtenyear planning period. In preparing the Land Use Plan Update, the elected leaders of the City believe that when establishing and adopting these policy statements regarding land use, the environment and growth management are the most important parts of the planning process. In arriving at the recommended set of policies, the Planning Board was responsible for resolving many conflicting issues and balancing the land planning objectives of the citizens with those mandated by State and Federal guidelines. Further, Q great care has been taken to be responsive to the needs of the Coastal Resource Commission and, specifically, the legislative guidelines of the Coastal Area Management Act. Policy Guidelines and CAMA Study Process LLJJ To assist in organizing and presenting the Plan's policy statements, the City has adopted the Coastal Resource Commission's generalized topical categories. These categories provide an excellent model for addressing areas of both local and State concerns while providing Havelock with broad flexibility in placing priorities onlocal land use issues. At the same time, all policies adopted by Havelock into the j� 1992 Land Use Plan must be consistent with the overall coastal policy adopted by the Coastal 4.1 Resources Commission. The City's major land use and development policies are organized into the following five policy categories consistent with current CAMAstatutes: A. Resource Protection B. Resource Production and Management C. Economic and Community Development D. Public Participation E. Storm Hazard Mitigation and Recovery To the greatest extent possible, the City has made every effort to ensure that there is consistency among individual policies developed in each policy category. However, many individual policy categories have overlapping, and potentially competing, impacts onother adopted policies. The Planning Board The Cox Company Goals, Objectives and Policies • 8-1 li 1993 CAMALand Use Plan Update Havelock • North Carolina has given particular attention to individual policies in the resource protection, resource production and management, and economic and communitydevelopment categories. For each of the five major planning issue categories subject to policy guidance, as outlined in T15A:07B .0203 of the State Code, the study process for the 1992 Land Use Plan has thoroughly exarruned the following considerations: the scope and importance of the land use issue as related to Havelock; In defining relevant land use issues, the Planning Board, in conjunction with the public participation process and citizen groups, examined those priority issues which will affect Havelock during the upcoming 10 year planning period. • the range of alternative goals, objectives and Rolicies which might be applicable when addressing the particular land use issue; 1.1 As the City considered potential policy options for each planning issue category, alternative scenarios and the impact of their outcomes were discussed based upon traditional and contemporary approaches to addressing public policy issues. The analysis of existing land use conditions, economic and population projections, and environmental considerations aided in formulating these options. The cost/benefit of policy impacts on the City, including cost of providing services and increased revenues generated from development, were analyzed. Further, the short and long range impacts of City-wide social, political and environmental implications of policy alternatives were closely weighed. Those policy alternatives found to be incompatible with the City's overall planning goals and objectives have been eliminated from further consideration. 4' the specific policy deemed appropriate by the City for adoption into the 1992 Land Use Plan; The City's final selection and adoption o land use policies were based on an hJ fi P f P upon extensive land use and economic data analysis as well as a full examination of the j best possible alternative for each land use issue. These policy choices are set +�- forth in the following sections of this chapter. The Planning Board has found that the recommended policies are reasonable and achievable by the City government and are sensitive to the fiscal constraints and the City's administrative system which will be in place for the 10 year planning period. • recommended implementation strategies to ensure that the adopted land use ' policy -can be placed into effect through reasonable actions by the public and/or Uprivate sectors. In this document, the City presents the desired strategies and methods for ri achieving the policies which have been adopted for the five major land use issue UThe Cox Company Goals, Objectives and Policies • 8-2 LI I 1993 CAMALand Use Plan Update Havelock • North Carolina categories. In addition, the following sections of this document address the fl methods by which Havelock intends to implement the adopted policy choices. Consideration of Policy Alternatives and Policy Implementation Method Based on Coastal Resource Commission study requirements, a wide range of land use policy options have been evaluated in order to ensure that any given issue has been fully explored. This processbegan with a detailed examination of past planning policies by the Planning Board. Apublic participation process was conducted to create the forum for the input of all Havelock citizens. Extensive public meetings and work sessions focused on defining the range of options from which an optimal policy on (l given issues could be drawn At the conclusion of each of the following policy sections, there is a description of those policies �j considered during the planning process, but which have been eliminated. Those policies which have been stricken from consideration, in some instances, may be revisited at some future point in time. Other eliminated policies, after thorough examination within the context of the locality, were found to be inconsistent with CRC, State and Federal planning requirements. In a number of cases, specific policies were not pursued because of their incompatibility with the current trends in the City. Such policies usually involved the Board making a choice between perceived conflicts in (1) fully respecting "private property rights" and (2) imposing "too much government" on the people. Such conflicts take many forms when striving to establish a unified and comprehensive (` "vision" for the City's future. There are those who promote expansive economic development without regard for the environment. On the other hand, environmental activists oftentimes promote `no _ growth" agendas under the veiled guise of ecological propriety. Further, public policy debates 4 occasionally pit the interests of opposingsocial, economicand governmental factions. These debates l.� exist in every communitywhich has ever undertaken a land useplan. Case history shows that, inmost instances, there is no "right answer," but, rather, far too frequently policies lean towards convenient, short-term political answers that are responsive to the most vocal of prevailing constituent interests. This is not the proper way to plan for Havelock's future. In the 1992 Land Use Plan Update, the Planning Board has sought to resolve the complex issues in a dignified fashion, while maintaining the central belief that Havelock has a strongand competent local governmental structure. This structure is founded onpolitical and economic thought driven by the expressed needs of the local constituents. This philosophical base fully respects State and Federal statutes related to land development and the environment. The City promotes a pro -active land j� planning stance by taking the lead in guiding and managing local land use activities. Havelock currently employs zomngand subdivision ordinances which are designedto improvethe health, safety and general welfare of the citizenry. These ordinances are designed to avoid unreasonable restrictions on personal property while establishing clear guidelines for growth The City Council, in concert with input from the City Staff, has outlined a recommended method for the implementation of the following adopted policies. Since the implementation of many policies The Cox Company Goals, Objectives and Policies • 8-3 1993 CAMALand Use Plan Update Havelock • North Carolina involve the pursuit, approval, and allocation of public funding, continued scheduling refinements, including the possible elimination of some implementation objectives, may be required. Further, certain implementation tasks and strategies outlined herein are considered to be "ongoing and continued actions" for which no specific timeframe for execution is required for adoption. In general terms, the City Council will use the policy statements as one of the bases for decision -making when land development, conservation and utilization requests are made. The City will continue to utilized and enforce existing regulations and ordinances which apply to land development and will ensure compatibility of the Land Use Plan with these documents. The Cox Company Goals, Objectives and Policies • 8-4 1993 CAMALand Use Plan Update Havelock • North Carolina a Recommended Planning Policies for Havelock A. Resource Protection Goals, Objectives and Policies In establishing goals and policies related to resource protection, Havelock has thoroughly examined the various Areas of Environmental Concern (AECs) located within its jurisdiction and has classified the categories of land uses which are appropriate for the City. For each class of land use, the Plan Update has carefully considered the specific rationale and reasons for the recommended land uses. There are no Outstanding Resources Waters (ORWs) in the estuarine system AECs of the City of Havelock, nor are there any ocean hazard AECs. In establishing the following goals, the physical constraints to land development in the City have j-j been analyzed pursuant to T15A: 07B .0202(c) of the Coastal Area Management Act. Further, uses for (.� areas with cultural and historic value have been analyzed to determine what will be the benefits and/or liabilities which will accrueto the City and its citizens by either encouragingthe development or preservation of these areas. The City of Havelock contains four Areas of Environmental Concernin its estuarine system, which are a categorized as Public Trust Waters, Coastal Wetlands, Estuarine Waters and Estuarine Shorelines. Public Trust Waters are defined as all publicly or state-owned land coveredby tidal waters, as well as navigable waters onnon-tidal lands.

Policy alternatives eliminated during the planning process: The following alternatives were discussed but not pursued during the drafting of the policies within this section: • The City has not, at this time, developed further restrictions or regulations dealing with energy siting facilities beyond existing State and Federal regulations. • At this time the City has not included design guidelines for buildings, signage and landscaping, howerer, a policy has been adopted which states possible pursuit of these guidelines during future development. Schedule for policy implementation by City: The Board of Commissioners, in concert with input from the City Staff and the Planning Board, shall outline a schedule for the implementation of the above policies. D. Public Participation Goals, Objectives and Policies Public participation has provided the cornerstone for the 1992 Plan Update. The City Board of P P P P Y Commissionersbelieves that the greatest value of citizen participation in the planning process is that it allows each memberof the communitythe opportunity to influence governmental decision making. In order for the 1992 Land Use Plan Update to be an effective policy document, it must accurately represent the ideas, attitudes, and concemsof ,the residents. By preparing a Land Use Plan Update which is integrally tied to its precedent goals, objectives and policies, the old adage that "a locality can be no better than it aspires to be" is underscored. In this regard, an intelligent and comprehensive plan cannot be structured without the direction of the locality's vision for its future. The Board has recognized that this vision mustcomefrom the residents ry of Havelock. To achieve this end, at the outset of the planning process, the Planning Planning Board �� J) designed a Public Participation Plan setting forth the specific methodology to be used by the City in its effort to achieve this essential representation of its citizens. 0 The Cox Company Goals, Objectives and Policies • 8 24 01 I 1993 CAMA Land Use Plan update Havelock • North Carolina The previously adopted Public Participation Plan and other documentation related to the City's ongoing citizens' involvement strategies are included in the Appendix of this document. DI. Planning Board: The Planning Board was officially designated by the City Board of Commissioners and City Staff as the lead representative for obtaining citizen input to the planning program and reporting that information to the Mayor and Board of Commissioners. In this effort, the Planning Board was responsible for investigating land use issues, analyzing past City planning policies, preparing u public news releases, organizing citizen meetings, conducting work sessions to discuss policy options, presenting alternative goals and objectives to the citizens, and synthesizing the community input into a consolidated set of goals, objectives and policies for adoption into this document. j� �j D2. Public notification of the planning process: Duringthe preliminary stages of the 1992 Land Use Plan Update process,all City citizens were provided periodic official notices that the planning process was underway. Local news media were used to inform the public of the time and location of the Planning Board work sessions and monthly meetings. These notices were also used to encourage citizen attendance and participation in the planning process in order to provide an avenue for the expression of their attitudes and feelings regarding land use issues in the City. The public was informed of when and where they could voice their concerns. As the Land Use Plan process matured, periodic updates, outlining completed and pending tasks and policy -related decisions, were made available to the citizenry for ongoing review. D3. General public information on the planning process: P P g The Planning Board drafted and distributed regular official notices of the Land Use Plan Update process via the Windsock and Havelock News. Areporter from these publications were periodically informed by the City Planner of the progress and status of the Land Use Plan Update. D4. Public Attitudinal Survey: Citizen involvement in the planning process was solicited via an "Opinion r Survey." This questionnaire was thoroughly reviewed by the Planning Board and �� JJ City Staff prior to its distribution. The survey was printed in a concise format, ensuring ease of distribution and useby City residents. This survey document was particularly useful in allowing the residents to register their individual concerns UThe Cox Company Goals, Objectives and Policies • 8-25 0 fl I M [I 0 0 0 1993 CAMALand Use Plan Update Havelock • North Carolina pertaining to the character, degree and pattern of population growth as well as future land use issues for the City. Fifteen -hundred copies of the questionnaire, accompanied by a letter of explanation from the Planning Board Chairman were distributed in the first three weeks of March, 1992. People paying their water bills at City Hall were asked to complete the fourpage questionnaire. Formswere also available to local civic groups, the Board of Realtors, the Chamber of Commerce, the public library and Cherry Point. D5. Synthesis and incorporation of public participation input into 1992Land Use Plan Update: The City of Havelock officials understood the great value and necessity of comprehensive public participation in the planning process. Community participation was viewed as an opportunity which should continue through every phase of the Land Use Plan Update and subsequent City decisions related to land use. An initial Public Hearing was held for the purposes of reviewing and critiquing the Public Participation Policy section of the Land Use Plan Update. This hearing was conducted during a regularly scheduled Planning Board meeting. In most cases, the Planning Board reserved time on its agenda at each regular monthly meeting to obtain citizen comments onin-progress workingpapers and the Plan. The Board feels that a representative profile of the City's constituencyhas aided in formulating a clear and attainable vision for the future of Havelock as represented by the Goals and Objectives herein. In summary, the primary purpose of this Public Participation Plan is to inform, educate and involve the citizens as fully as possible in matters related to land use planning in Havelock. In pursuit of this purpose, this participation process was intended to remain flexible in format and execution, while giving every Havelock citizen the opportunity to take part in this democratic process. D6. Ongoing public participation in the City's governmental planning activities and land use review process: - The City is committed to ensuring that all citizens have the opportunity to continueto participate in the planning process subsequentto the adoption of the 1992 Land Use Plan. To this end, the following policies and strategies will be ri carried out by the City: a. Official notification of all City Planning Board hearings involving land use issues will be placed in the local media. The Cox Company Goals, Objectives and Policies • 8-26 1993 CAMALand Use Plan Update I Pi E. 0 G Havelock • North Carolina b. The City Staff will provide the local media with public interest information to assist and ensure the preparation of accurate and timely articles concerning land use, economic development and community -related issues. c. The City will establish appropriate study Boards, on a case -by -case basis, to further investigate evolving land use issues as well as other policy directives as outlined in the 1992 Land Use Plan. Storm Hazard Mitigation, Post -Disaster Recovery and Evacuation Goals, Objectives and Policies Storm hazard mitigation policies for Havelock are a mandatory requirement of the Coastal Area Management Act and are included in the 1992 Land Use Plan. As related to contemporary land use issues in the City, CAMNs primary aim in establishing these policies is to ensure that the City government fully recognizes the need to promulgate reasonable guidelines for land development so that the risk of damage to property and the threat of harm to human life from coastal storms is kept to a minimum. The City of Havelock's adopted policies and procedures for hurricane evacuation planning, storm hazard mitigation, and post -disaster recovery were presented in the 1986 CAMA Land Use Plan. They have been reviewed and modified to include reference to the City's entry into the Regular Flood InsuranceProgram (1987) and to reflect changes in the City's administrative and post disaster recovery team. Adjustments were also made to the estimated value of buildings subject to wind and water damages. The City has adopted the applicable policies and procedures detailed in the Craven County Hurricane Evacuation Plan (as amended). It provides guidance for coordinated evacuation, communications, operations, shelter and set-up for the Cherry Point -Havelock area. Emergency preparedness activities are provided at Cherry Point through a "team" of department directors and are coordinated by the Disaster Control Officer, who also serves as a liaison with local officials. The Craven County Fire Marshal serves as the Craven County EmergencyManagement Coordinator with offices and the Operations Center located in New UBern. Havelock's operation center is the Public Safety Building. One of the model texts on the subject of hurricane mitigation, Before the Storm: Managing Development to Reduce Hurricane Damages, recommendsat least four basic steps to prepare communities threatened by hurricanes: • a hazard mitigation plan, • a reconstruction plan, f� The Cox Company Goals, Objectives and Policies • 8-27 n 1993 CAMALand Use Plan Update Havelock • North Carolina t� • ordinances and resolutions to mitigate the hazards detailing n reconstruction, and idetailed and accurate property information This section of the Land Use Plan Update is provided to assist the City of Havelock in maintaining policies, plans and information in line with the above basic documents in order to manage development in areas subject to damaging hurricanes. 1. - The hazard mitigation plan identifies hazard areas in the community, the susceptibility to property damages and what actions will be taken following disaster. It provides..: "the foundation for how reconstruction takes place..." (McElyea, Brower, & Godschalk, pp.7-36). 2. Personnel responsibilities and procedures for assessing damages and permitting repairs and reconstruction are identified in the reconstruction plan. 3. Putting as many policies, procedures, and regulations in effect before a major disaster is good insurance. It reduces confusion that would otherwise follow a disaster. 4. Finally, because documentation of losses for disaster relief must be accomplished promptly and in proper detail, in the local government should have adequate property maps and ownership/property value information readily available.. These things will assist the assessment team in documenting losses. El. Coastal Storm Hazard -Mitigation Planning Activities and Studies a. Effects of coastal storms on Havelock Hazard mitigation or actions taken to reduce the probability or impact of a disaster could involve a number of activities. The starting point, however, is to identify the types of hazards and the extent that residential and commercial development is located in storm hazard areas. The Craven County mitigation policy report contains more detail on this subject. There are four principal causes of property damages and fatalities associated with hurricanes that are briefly described below: 1) High winds. During hurricanes sustained wind speeds can vary from 73 miles per hour to extremes of 165 miles per hour. Winds can gust up to 200 miles per hour. If a hurricane hit Havelock, full force winds could uproot trees, cause major damage to building, overturn mobile homes, and down power lines. The Cox Company Goals, Objectives and Policies • 8 28 1993 CAMALand Use Plan Update Havelock • North Carolina 2) Wave action. Wind -driven water and associate wave action may affect limited estuarine shorelines in Havelock. Effected shorelines are essentially those described in the Flood Insurance Study as A-5 and A-6 zones where flooding would occur up to 9 feet above mean sea level near the more open widths, of Slocum Creek and West and East Prongs of Slocum Creek up to the Culverts at Main Street. Note, however, the following statement from the Flood Insurance Study: "No wind wave analyses were performed for the City of Havelock. Wave height analyses were not performed in the study area because it was determined that it wouldbe unlikely that the 100-year wave height would occur coincident with the 100-year surge elevation. In accordance with the current FEMA guidelines, it is recognized that wave hazards which may exist in certain areas will not be reflected in the study or maps." Although the analyses were not performed, the limited potential wave action accompanying a 100-year storm surge could affect eleven houses, the yacht club, an a metal contractor's building located in the A-f flood zones on the eastern exposed (� shorelines of Slocum Creek from Cedar Creek Drive to the Riverside Drive area. J 1 3) Flooding. tj Published Flood InsuranceRate Maps depicting the 100-year flood limits for local creeks were examined to determine the extent of existing development that would be affected by storm surges and riverine flooding associated with hurricanes. Approximate boundaries were transferred to the Constraints Map (A-2). Fortunately for most of Havelock and its extraterritorial area, the storm surge is limited to the floodways and existing channels which affect relatively few buildings. Table 8 indicates the numberand types of structures that would likely flood during a hurricane. G 4) Erosion Very little bulk heading has been done along Slocum Creek in Havelock where some erosion may occur. Because of the limited exposure of property in Havelock to wave l action, erosion is not a significant hazard. E2. Mitigation Policy Statements and Implementation Havelock s policies and strategies to implement a storm hazard mitigation plan and minimize potential damage include the following: a . Policies related to high wind, surge, flooding and erosion: N • High winds. The City of Havelock will continue to enforce the Southern Building Code with North ( Carolina Building Code amendments for wind -resistive factors and design wind velocity. The Cox Company Goals, Objectives and Policies • 8-29 0 1993 CAMALand Use Plan Update Havelock • North Carolina The city will also continue enforcing requirements for mandatory registration and tie- down/set-up standards for mobile homes. • Wave action. Havelock supports the CAMA development permit in conjunctionwith construction permitted by the Havelock Zoning Ordinance and Flood Damage Prevention Ordinance. • Flooding. The City is committed to enforcingits Flood Damage Prevention Ordinance and retaining control of construction activities in flood hazard areas. • Erosion control. The City of Havelock does not propose additional estuarine shoreline erosion control regulations above CAMA and Corps of Engineers 404 permit requirements. The City also supports the Sedimentation Pollution Control Act of 1973. b. Policies related to discouraging development in Most Hazardous Areas: • The City will continue to discourage development, especially high density or large structures, in its Most Hazardous Areas. • The City remains supportive of CAMA permitting processes for development standards for shoreline stabilization and drainage along the City's estuarine shoreline areas. • The City utilizes existing Land Use regulations supportive of and complementary to State and Federal policies related to Most Hazardous Areas. • The City utilizes the existing Land Use Ordinance which requires location of new development in accordance with the requirements and limitations set forth in the County, State and Federal regulations as they apply to natural hazard areas. C. Policies related to land acquisition in Most Hazardous areas: The City, at this time, does not intend to commit local funds to implement any [ widespread public acquisition of land in the Most Hazardous Areas. d. Policies related to citizen evacuation: • The City continues to support Craven County'sMulti-Hazard Plan, as amended, which outlines extensive procedures for efficient and safe evacuation of the citizens. These documents are currently used as the primary guidance resource for City's evacuation efforts. The Cox Company Goals, Objectives and Policies • 8-30 0 I j C 14 u 1993 CAMALand Use Plan Update Havelock • North Carolina • The City supports limited development density in Most Hazardous Areas so as to decrease the number of people needing to be evacuated. • The location and formof newdevelopment mustfit within the framework of the existing subdivision and zoning documents in the City. • The City encourages the adequate planning, development and use of motels, schools, condominiums and other large-scale structures for adequate and sufficient emergency shelter for their occupants and residents. • The City supports a policy of ensuring that new public buildings can be adequately prepared and used as emergency evacuation shelters. • The City continues to support ongoing refinements and participation in the regional evacuation planning process currently drafted by Craven County. E3. Post Disaster Reconstruction Plan and Policies: Post disaster reconstruction policies are required by CAMA as part of the 1992 Land Use Plan in order to guide new development and redevelopment during the reconstruction period following a natural storm disaster. In this regard, the City leadership's goal is to ensure that, as reconstruction activities are planned, programmed and implemented, Havelock will be less vulnerable to coastal storms than it was before the disaster. The City of Havelock will coordinate evacuation and reconstruction activities caused by a major storm through the Craven County Emergency Operation Center as called for in the Craven County Hurricane Evacuation Plan (as amended). The following sections provide a policy framework for identifying responsible personnel and procedures for assessing damages and permitting repairs and reconstruction following a major storm. Appoint a Post Disaster Recovery Team. After evacuation orders are issued the Mayor will appoint a Post -Disaster Recovery Team composed of the following team members: I. City Manager 2. Public Works Director 3. Chief -Public Safety Department 4. Chief -Fire and Rescue Departments 5. Director of Planning & Inspections 6. City Clerk -Tax Collector 7. Finance Director The Cox Company Goals, Objectives and Policies • 8-31 V I C 0 D a 1993 CAMALand Use Plan Update Havelock • North Carolina The Public Works Director will serve as the team leader with principal responsibilities for overseeing the Emergency Operation Center under the direction of the City Manager. The Public Safety Building will serve as the EOC, where communications functionswill be centered and are tied to the Craven County EOC in New Bern. The disaster Recovery Team will be responsible for the following: 1. Keeping the appropriate County and State officials informed; 2. Establishing an overall restoration schedule and priorities; 3. Determining requirements for outside assistance and requesting such assistance when beyond local capabilities; 4. Keeping the public informed; 5. Assembling and maintaining records of actions taken and expenditures and obligations incurred and reliable estimates of sustained damages; 6. Recommending to the Mayor to proclaim a local "state of Emergency" if warranted; 7. Commending and coordinating clean-up, debris removal and utility restoration which would include coordination of restoration activities undertaken by private utility companies; S. Identify those structures that must be demolished or are structurally unsafe and should be condemned; 9. Identify repairs needed to damaged structures and utilities and conduction repair and restoration of essential facilities and services; 10. Assisting private businesses and individual property owners in obtaining information on the various types of assistance that might be available to them from federal and state agencies. b. Immediate Clean-up. The Public Works Director will be responsible for directing the City forces inclean-up activities: removing debris, opening roads and bridges, cutting and removing fallen trees and coordinating with utility companies the removal of unsafe electric power lines and securing any gas leaks. C. Post-Emergency/LongTerm Recovery Phase. The Disaster Recovery Team will be responsible for overseeing an orderly reconstruction process after a major storm in accordance with the City's building, zoning, and other land use regulations. Three reports are required to be submitted in requesting state assistance; the Situation Report, the Damage AssessmentReport, and the Expenditure/Obligation Report. F=� The Situation Report alerts county and state officials of pending threat or in progress �L11 hurricanes and the City's conditions and responsesto the emergency. It will be prepared onthe necessary formsby the "Team," approved by the Mayor, and submitted as necessary during the P threat or occurrence of a major storm. The Cox Company Goals, Objectives and Policies • 8-32 U I 1993 CAMALand Use Plan Update Havelock • North Carolina Within 48 hours, assessments of damages must be submitted through the Craven County EOC Coordinator (Fire Marshal). The City Manager will appoint a Damage Assessment Team consisting of the following persons: the Director of Planning and Inspections, a building inspector, a fire inspector, a local building contractor, and the Utilities Director. This team will immediately tour the community to obtain a preliminary assessment of the damages, classifying damaged structures by type and percentage of damage to total value using the I� following criteria as modified from Carolina Counfy Protot=e Disaster Relief and Assistance u Plan (N.C. Division of Emergency Management,1981): Destroyed: replacement required greater than 80 percent of value; Major Damage: extensive repairs needed over 30 percent of value and building is not habitable or cannot be used; Minor Damage: Damaged less than 30 percent of value and building is usable �.j or habitable with caution and issuance of a temporary certificate of occupancy, Habitable: damaged less than 15percentof value and building is usable or habitable. Anew CAMApermit is required for structures within anAEC that sustain damage of more than 50%. Documentingdamages will be completed on forms acceptable by appropriate state and federal disaster assistance agencies. The Director of Planing and Inspections will be responsible for seeing that damaged buildings are appropriately "posted" as condemned or that they may be used under "temporary" certificates of occupancy depending on the above damage classification and applicable State Building Codes, and the City's Minimum Housing Code, and Zoning Ordinance. The Public works and Utilities Directors will be responsible for assessing damages to water and sewer systems, storm sewer, and city streets. d. Reconstruction Standards. a Redevelopment followingmajor storm will be done under the l City's Flood Damage Prevention Ordinance, building regulations, zoning ordinance and standard design criteria. Structure destroyed but not previously conforming to these standards mustbe re -built according to those regulations. Structure with mmordamage will bepermitted to be rebuilt immediately. Conforming building suffering major damage will be allowed to be re -built following issuance of necessary permits. e. Development Moratoria. In order to allow accurate damage assessment, clean-up activities to proceed, and basic utilities to be placed back in service without interference, the City Board of Commissionersmay pass a temporary moratorium for certain rebuilding activities —most likely reconstruction for non -conforming destroyed buildings. The Cox Company Goals, Objectives and Policies • 8-33 0 1993 CAMALand Use Plan Update Havelock • North Carolina The moratorium would also permit time to provide alternative rebuilding solutions to those owners of property lying within special flood hazard areas in order to insure to the maximum extent possible that new construction will have a reduced chance of being hit by another major storm Depending on the extent and types of damage the temporary moratorium may last up to 60 days. Q f. Special/Temporary Housing. Following destruction of residences, it will be necessary to find temporary substitute housing for families while homes are rebuilt. Some of this housing may be provided through use of transient lodging facilities and by friends and relatives of the homeless families. Another option is to temporarily permit placement of an approved mobile home unit on the same lot where the home was destroyed, but only for a maximum period of 6 months while the new home is built. The zoning ordinance presently does not permit such an arrangement but, the City Board of Commissioners will ask the planning and City Attorney to draft an ordinance allowing temporary mobile home use that could be adopted following a disaster. g. Reconstruction Schedule. The first week following the disaster will be used by the Damage Assessment Team to complete necessary reporting of damages to state and federal agencies. 0 (� Target time frames for other reconstruction activities are suggested below as a management guide in setting priorities: 1. begin repair of critical utilities and facilities within 24 to 72 hours with priority to electricity, and water supplies; 2, declare temporary moratorium (if needed) within first week as damage assessment is completed. Minor repairs may begin immediately; 3. during the first two weeks evaluate effectiveness of mitigation policies and hazards identification to see whether they should be used unchanged before rebuilding starts; 4. major repairs may begin under adopted regulation following plan approvals. h. Agency Responsible for Implementation. The City Manager will direct and oversee g Y P P administration of the City's Post -Disaster Reconstruction Plan, reporting to the City Board of Commissioner in regular or special sessions of the board as needed. The City Manager will insure that the Post -Disaster Recovery Team and Disaster Recovery Team perform their functions in a timely manner, coordinating their work with the Craven County Emergency Management Office, State, and Federal agencies. The Mayor, in his capacity as chief elected official, will appoint any other task forces that are needed and not anticipated here. Ui . Repair and Replacement of Public Utilities. The Public Works Director will be responsible for UThe Cox Company Goals, Objectives and Policies • 8-34 1993 CAMA Land Use Plan Update Havelock • North Carolina overseeing the repair or replacement of water, sewer, storm sewer, and streets. The City will follow normal procedures for obtaining required engineering and contracting services for the purpose of redesigning or relocating the facilities before reconstruction in order to make them less subject to damage from another hurricane. Such actions will require action by the City Board of Commissioners. The Cox Company Goals, Objectives and Policies • 8-35 0 0 Chapter 9. Land Classification System I I I 0 I 0 The City of Havelock Land Use Plan • 1993 i I 1993 CAMALand Use Plan Update Havelock • North Carolina a CHAPTER 9: n Land Classification System uIn its simplest form, the Havelock Land Classification System (HLCS) is a map which attempts to a visually portray the City's "vision for the future." The HLCS is achieved through an extensive study process during which the physical, social, economic and environmental realities of the City are carefully examined. The Land Classification Map graphically outlines and assigns recommended land use categories to individual geographical areas comprisingthe City. The HLCS map is intended to serve as a general guideline to assist the Planning Board in implementing the adopted Land Use Plan's policies and strategies. In theory, the HLCS is one which: 1. Best accommodates the Cit 's land use goals, objectives and policies; a 2. Is capable of implementation within the context of satisfying both (a) the demands of the marketplace, and (b) the ability of the City to responsibly supply municipal service and infrastructure, 3. Provides positive community -wide benefits with the least negative impact on the existing physical, social, political and economic environment; 4. Satisfies the regulatory requirements of the State's Coastal Area Management Act (CAMA), and 5. Resolves the input of City citizens via the adoption of the HLCS map by the Planning Board. aBy graphically delineating specific land use classifications, the Planning Board is able to apply the most appropriate planning policies to specific geographical areas within the City. Thus, the map is to abe employed by the Planning Board to provide thoughtful guidance to future land use activities and development based on its commonly held "vision," as defined by this Land Use Plan. The North Carolina CAMAregulations state: "The land classification stem provides a framework to be used b local fi y P f y governments to identify the future use of all lands. The designation of land classes allows the local governments to illustrate their policy statements as to where and to what density they want growth to occur, and where they want to conserve natural and Qcultural resources by guiding growth." The HLCS is intended to be supported, complemented and implemented by growth management "tools" which are potentially available to the City via State enabling legislation. These "tools" include zoning, subdivision, environmental controls and other locally -adopted growth management mechanisms which serve to implement local, State and Federal laws. However, in the strict sense of the term, the HLCS is not a regulatory mechanism. QThe Cox Company Land Classification System • 9-1 I 1993 CAMALand Use Plan Update I Havelock • North Carolina Q Under the CAMA enabling statutes, the Havelock Land Classification System may include seven separate land use classes: Developed, Urban Transition, Limited Transition, Community, Rural, Rural -with Services, -and Conservation. -At the City's option, the Planning Board canfurther subdivide these land use classes into more specific subclasses. If this is done, the subclass mustclosely relate to the precepts of the original major class. While not all of the seven majorland use classes will necessarily apply to Havelock, the classification system —commonly referred to as the 7-Tiered System —provides a clear, uniform process by which the City officials and its citizens can best make decisions concerning future land development and environmental issues. a In assessing the optimal organization of the Havelock Land Classification System, the planning process focused on the statutory requirements of the Coastal Area Management Act, which states that the classification should "give particular attention to how, where and when development of certain atypes and intensity will be encouraged or discouraged." For example, CAMArecommends that: "Local governments are also encouraged to make some distinction between urban transition areas, which are intended to reflect intensely developing areas with the (� full range of urban services to be supplied, and limited transition areas that are less intensely developed, may have private services and are frequently located in a rural Iandscape." "Urban land uses and higher intensity uses which presently require t h e traditional urban services should be directed to lands classified developed. Areas developing or anticipated to develop at urban densities which will eventually require urban services should be directed to lands classified transition. Low density a development in settlements which will not require sewer services should be directed to areas classified as community. Agriculture, forestry, mineral extraction and other similar low intensity uses and very low density, dispersed residential uses should be directed to lands classified rural. Generally, public orprivate water orsewer systems will not be provided in areas classified rural as an incentive for intense development." With respect to the Land Classification Map for Havelock, the seven land use categories are defined as follows: 0 1. Developed Areas: As defined by CAMA, the purpose of the Developed Areas class is to provide for continued intensive development and redevelopment of existing cities and their urban environs. Areas of the City meeting the intent of the Developed Areas classification are currently urban in character where minimal undeveloped land remains and have in place, or are scheduled for the timely provision of, the usual municipal or public services. Land designated as urban in character includes mixed land uses such as residential, commercial, industrial, and other uses at high to moderate densities. Public services include water, sewer, recreational facilities, streets and roads, police and fire protection. In some instances a Developed Area may not have all the traditional urban services in place, but if i t aThe Cox Company Land Classification System • 9-2 L i 1993 CAMALand Use Plan Update Havelock • North Carolina otherwise has a "developed" character and is scheduled for the timely provision of these services, i t still meets the intent of the Developed Area classification. Areas developed for predominantly residential purposes meet the intent of this classification if they exhibit: • a density of 3 or more dwellings per acre; or • a majority of lots of 15,000 square feet or less, which are provided or scheduled to be provided with the traditional urban services; or • permanent population densities which are high and seasonal populations that may swell significantly. D The City, at its option, may subdivide the Developed class into subclasses. Developed/multifamily residential, Developed/single family residential, Developed/commercial and Developed/ industrial are examples. This further refinement of the Developed Area class will be helpful in future years when Havelock elects to impose controls over the location of certain uses which may not be fully compatible with each other. For example, future policies may stipulate that heavy industry and low - density residential housing should not be located on adjacent parcels. In such a case, a distinction on D the Land Classification Map between Developed/industrial and Developed/single-family residential would provide the Planning Board with a means of more responsibly guiding the location of these potentially incompatible land uses. In separating the Developed Area class into future subclasses, the City should discuss how, when and where, it will provide the services necessary to support the unique needs of the urban area. In a summary, the Developed Area class is designed to illustrate urban intensity development and the public facilities and services necessary to supportit. This class should beapplied to existing cities and towns and intense development within the extraterritorial planning jurisdictional areas containing aintense urban development requiring urban services. - The area along both McCotter and Webb Boulevards fall underthe Developed classification. These areas are primarily high density residential and are characteristically the older sections of the City. The residential area off Miller Boulevard is also one of the first residential areas developed. The Hills of Foxcroft, South Forest, Stonebridge and Wolfcreek are a few of the recent residential developments in Havelock ranging from 7,000-10,000 square foot lot sizes. 2 Urban Transition The purpose of the Urban Transition class is to provide for future intensive urban development onlands that are suitable and that will be provided with the necessary urban services to support intense urban development. City geographical areas meeting the intent of the Urban Transition classification can be categorized as either (a) presently being developed for urban purposes or (b) will be developed within the next five to ten years to accommodate anticipated population and urbangrowth. These Urban Transition areas are n in, or will be in an evolving, or "transitional," state of development going from lower intensity uses to uhigher intensity uses and, as such, will eventually require urban services to be supplied by either the aThe Cox Company Land Classification System • 9-3 0 I 0 0 I U i If 0 1993 CAMALand Use Plan Update Havelock • North Carolina City or incorporated communities. Examples of areas defined by CAMA as meeting the intent of this class are lands included within municipal extraterritorial planning boundaries and areas being considered for annexation by incorporated communities. Urban Transition areas in Havelock will provide lands for intensive urban growth when lands in the Developed Areas class are not available. Urban Transition lands must be able to support urban development by being generally free of physical limitations and be served, or readily served, by urban services. Urban development includes mixed land uses such as residential, commercial, institutional, industrial, and other uses at orapproaching high to moderate densities. Urban services include water, sewer, streets and roads, police and fire protection that will be made available at the time development occurs or soon thereafter. In choosing land for the Urban Transition class, CAMA regulations indicate that such land should not include the following: "Areas with severe physical limitations which would make the provision of urban services difficult or impossible, lands which meet the definition of conservation, lands of special value (unless no other alternative exists), such as productive and unique agricultural lands, forest lands, potentially valuable mineral deposits, water supply watersheds, scenic and tourist resources including archaeological sites, habitat for important wildlife species, areas subject to frequent flooding, areas important for environmental or scientific values, lands where urban development might destroy or damage natural systems or processes of more than local concern, or lands where intense development might result in undue risk to life and property from natural or existing manmade hazards." Further, CAMA stipulates that "even though AEC standards occasionally permit urbantransition type development ona lot by lot basis within the various AECs, this classification should generally not be applied to any AEC." Areas that are predominantly residential meet the intent of the Urban Transition class if: • they are approaching three dwelling units per acre, or • a majority of the lots are 15,000 square feet or less and will be provided with essential urban services to support this high density development, or • are contiguous to existing developed municipal areas. Because of the City's desire to understandthe relationships between rezoning decisions onpotential development densities, in developed, transition, rural, and conservation areas, the Official zoning map was used as a base for overlaying the revised boundaries of the land classification system. In this way, proposed rezonings that increase allowable development densities above the threshold for those acceptable within a limited transition, rural, or conservation area might be clearly seen along with uses potentially in conflict with environmental or development policies adopted elsewhere in this plan. The Cox Company Land Classification System • 9-4 9 I 1993 CAMALand Use Plan Update Havelock • North Carolina Specific Urban Transition areas in Havelock include residential and commercial uses. The Vacant land behind McCotter Canal and behind the recreation complex have been considered for such mixed use. Parcels along Greenfield Heights Boulevard is available for residential development. Asmall amount n of land along Highway 101 is available for commercial development. Highway 70 is near capacity ]►-�1 regarding commercial development. 3. Limited Transition Areas As defined by LAMA, the purpose of the Limited Transition class is to provide for development in areas of Havelock that will have some services, but are suitable for lower densities than those associated with the Urban Transition class, and/or which are geographically remote from existing Cities and municipalities. City areas meeting the intent of this class will experience increased development during the current 5-year planning period. The Limited Transition Areas will be in a state of development necessitating some municipal infrastructure, facilities, and/orservices. As opposed to Urban Transition Areas, these areas are of modest densities and are often suitable for the provision of closed water systems rather than individual wells. Within Havelock, geographical land which is classified Limited Transition will provide "controlled development" with services, but may not be applied on lands that are suitable for traditional high intensity urban development normally associated with sewers or other services. The Limited Transition lands may possessphysical limitations orbe applied to environmentally sensitive areas of the City near valuable estuarine waters or other fragile natural systems. Sewers and other services may be provided because such services are already in the area or readily available nearby, because the lands are unsuitable for septic tanks or the cumulative effect of septic tanks may negatively affect significant public resources. The Limited Transition class is intended for predominantly residential development with densities of three units per acre or less, or in development with the majority of lots 15,000 square feet or greater. In many areas, lower densities would be necessary and should be considered. Clustering or development associated with Planned Unit Development may be appropriate in the Limited Transition Class. Areas which meet the definition of the Conservation class should not be classified Limited Transition. CAMAguidelines recognize that due to its very nature, the Limited Transition land classification may be controversial because it forces the locality to "pick" between potentially incompatible land development and conservation issues. As such, CAMA requires that if a local government chooses to implement this class, it shall describe the circumstances making this classification necessary and shall also describe how this class will help the local government achieve both its economic development and natural resources protection policies. This discussion shall include statements as to why lands included in this classification are appropriate for development which necessitates the provision of services. The Cox Company Land Classification System • 9-5 1993 CAMALand Use Plan Update Havelock • North Carolina Areas generally appropriate for this class are: a• Predominately residential with lots greater than 15,000 square feet; • Potentially suitable for cluster development (where open space is important) associated with planned unit development; • Inappropriate for greater development densities and extensive services. As sewer and other services become more widespread in Havelock and the extra -territorial jurisdiction, they could potentially beextended into service areas that are not suitable or conducive for high density urban development. The use of such services generally increases environmental protection D requirements in these areas if the density of development remains relatively low. The Limited Transition class is intended to provide for appropriate moderate densities of development with the benefits of both urban services and sound environmental protection guidelines. However, the D reliability of services, such as sewage treatment systems, is critical to the appropriate development of these areas. If the City and its extra -territorial jurisdiction intends to allow the private provision of urban services, such as sewage systems and garbage collection, then the City should require special assurances that these private services will reliably protect the public resources and avoid unnecessary public expenses. (� Three areas west of Havelock near the Croatan National Forest have been place in the Limited (� Transition Classification. These areas are currently zoned R-20A, and are served by private water system. They include Greenfield Mobile Estates and the mobile home park off Gray Road. Both developments are zoned RM. The 1986 CAMA Plan placed these areas under a Rural Classification . The change more accurately reflects current land use patterns matching the Limited Transition Class for the ten year planning period. Perhaps within ten to fifteen years, the prospects of the construction of U U.S. 70 Bypass and potential land exchanges involving the bypass and lands currently in National U Forest ownership, may result in pressures to develop areas west of Greenfield Boulevard shown as Limited Transition on the Land Classification Map. a4. Community Areas QThe purpose of the CommunityAreas class is to provide for clustered, mixed land uses at low densities to help meet the housing, shopping, employment and other needs in the rural areas of Havelock. The portions of the City meeting the intent of the Community Areas class are areas presently developed at low densities which are suitable for private septic tank use. These areas are clustered residential and/or commercial land uses which provide both low intensity shopping and housing opportunities and provide a local social sense of a "community." Very limited municipal type services such as fire protection and community water may be available, but municipal -type sewer systems are not to be provided as a catalyst for future development. In some unusual cases, sewer systems may be possible, but only to correct an existing or projected public health hazard. Segments of the City and extra -territorial jurisdiction, developed in a low density fashion in small, dispersed clusters in a larger rural landscape with very limited or no water and sewer services meet the intent of this Community Areas class. The Cox Company Land Classification System • 9-6 L11 1993 CAMALand Use Plan Update Havelock • North Carolina The Coastal Area Management Act stresses that the Community Areas class applies to clustered low intensity development in a rural landscape. This development is usually associated with "crossroads" and "country store neighborhoods" in Havelock and the extra -territorial jurisdiction. Some Community Areas may have or may require municipal type services to avert an existing or anticipated health problem. Even though limited services maybe available, these Community Areas should notbe shown in the higher intensity land classes, as the major characteristic which distinguishes CommunityAreas with limited services from the Developed and Transition classes is that services are not provided to stimulate intense development in rural setting, but rather to neutralize or avert health problems. Currently, the City does not contain areas classified as Community. The above narrative is included in the event the City sees the need to classify areas under this heading in the next five to ten years. 5. Rural Areas The Rural Areas class is to provide a City designation for agriculture, forestry, mineral extraction, and other allied uses traditionally associated with an agrarian region. Other land uses, due to their noxious or hazardous nature and negative impacts on adjacent uses may also be appropriate here i f sited in a manner that minimizes their negative effect on surrounding land uses or natural resources. Examples of such uses include energy generating plants, refining plants, airports, sewage treatment facilities, fuel storage tanks, and other industrial type uses. Very low density dispersed residential i uses on large lots with private on -site water and sewer are consistent with the intent of the Rural 0 El L I u Areas class. Development in this class should be as compatible with resource production as possible. City and extra -territorial jurisdiction land meeting the intent of the Rural Areas classification which is appropriate for, or presently used, for agriculture, forestry, mineral extraction and other uses, that due to their hazardous or noxious nature, should be located in a relatively isolated and undeveloped area. Very low density dispersed, single family residential usesare also appropriate within rural areas where lot sizes are large and where densities do not require the provision of urban type services. Private septic tanks and wells are the primary on site services available to support residential development, but fire, rescue squad and sheriff protection may also be available. Population densities will be very low. The Rural Area class is the broadest of the seven classes. In the future, the City may wish to further subdivide the rural class into subclasses such as Rural/agricultural, Rural/forestry, etc. in order to illustrate where these basic rural activities should be maintained within the City and extra- territorial jurisdiction. Currently, very little of the rural classification areas are available for further development. The majority of this area is located off Greenfield Boulevard and Sunset Avenue. This area also contains vacant farm land and other undeveloped properties. Forestry/Government owned lands. The Cox Company Most rural areas are adjacent to Land Classification System • 9-7 0 Li I 0 11 I I 1993 CAMALand Use Plan Update 6. Rural with Services Havelock • North Carolina The Rural with Services category is designed to complement with Rural Areas category by recognizing that limited residential development may occurwithout threatening the agricultural environmental with potential suburbanexpansion. Thus, the Rural with Services class is intended to provide for very low density land uses including residential use where limited water services are provided in order to avert an existing or projected health problem. It is emphasized that any and all land development within this class should be governed to ensure low intensity in order to maintain a rural character. Rural water systems, such as those funded by Farmers Home Administration, are or may be appropriate in these areas dueto the need to avert poor water quality problems. However, CAMAstipulates that these systems, however, should be designed to serve a limited numberof customers and should not serve as a catalyst for future higher intensity development. In summary, City and extra -territorial jurisdiction areas in this class are appropriate for very low intensity residential uses, where lot sizes are large, and where the provision of services will not disrupt the primary rural character of the landscape. Private wells and septic tank services may exist, but most development is supported by a closed water system. Other services such as sheriff protection and rural or volunteer fire protection and emergency rescue etc. may also be available. This class is intended to beapplied where the local government has provided, or intends to provide, very limited water services to avert a knownor anticipated health problem in a predominantly larger agrarian region. The areas classified as Rural with Services are limited. They include Greenfield Heights Boulevard Area and Indian Hills. 7. Conservation The purpose of the Conservation Areas class is to provide for the effective -long-term management and protection of :significant, limited, or irreplaceable areas of Havelock and/or the extra -territorial jurisdiction. Land management is needed due to the natural, cultural, recreational, scenic, and/or natural productive values of both local and regional concern Land areas in Havelock and/orthe extra- territorial jurisdiction meeting the intent of this classification include the following: • AECs, including public trust waters or estuarine waters as identified in 15ANCAC 7H, • Other similar lands, environmentally significant because of their natural role in the integrity of the coastal region including bottom land hardwoods, pocosins, swamp forests, areas that are or have a high probability of providing wildlife habitat, forest lands that are essentially undeveloped and lands that otherwise contain significant productive, natural, scenic, cultural, or recreational resources. Ll • 404 Wetlands U The Cox Company Land Classification System 9 9-8 a I C 0 C I a I C 1993 CAMALand Use Plan Update Havelock • North Carolina The Conservation Areas class is designed to illustrate the natural, productive, scenic, cultural and recreational features of the extra -territorial jurisdiction which make it a desirable place in which to live, work, and visit. As such the Conservation class should be applied to areas that because of their unique, productive, limited, cultural, or natural features should be either not developed at a 11 (preserved), or if developed, done so in a extremely limited and cautious fashion. The City currently endorses the 404 wetlands Corp permitting program and offers no further restrictions on development within these areas. Further policies directed at conservation areas can be found in Chapter VHL Urban services, either public or private, should not be provided in the Conservation Areas due to their potential nature as a catalyst to stimulate intense development. In mostcases, limited on -site services will adequately support any limited development within the Conservation class and will also protect the very features which justify the area's inclusion in the Conservation classification. CAMAemphasizes that even though AEC standards occasionally permit urban type development ona lot by lot basis within the various AECs and that services are occasionally provided, this is the exception rather than the rule, and the primary intent of the conservation class is to provide protection for the resources included therein. Mapping of AECs in the conservation class on the local government's land classification map has been accomplished with the understanding that AECs are intensively defined by their characteristics in 15A NCAC 7H, and therefore maps only indicate approximate locations and are not definitive enough for site specific regulation purposes. In this light, mapping of 404 wetlands must be done in the field by the appropriate permitting agency. Policy development in the land use plan should acknowledge the intent of this class and policies should be consistent with the function of areas shown in the Conservation class. Specific areas within the Corporate Limits of Havelock classified as conservation are specifically limited to the Croatan National Forest, Federal lands and areas adjacent to Slocum Creek and the Neuse River. Most of the Conservation areas within the city are Federally regulated. The City currently allows only low impact residential and recreational uses within conservation areas which do not fall under restrictions or regulations by any other agencies. The Cox Company Land Classification System 0 9-9 I I I I C I C L' u 1993 CAMALand Use Plan Update Havelock * North Carolina Intergovernmental Coordination and Implementation The land classification map for the City of Havelock serves to guide the activities of private developers and public agencies and to coordinate policies, standards, regulations and other governmental strictures which affect development within the City limits. In doing so, the development policies, issues and concerns of adjoining jurisdictions shall also be considered, and meaningful attempts at conflict resolution and coordination shall be made with these jurisdictions. Throughout the constructing of this plan, continuous efforts were made to make local policies and regulations consistent with the regulations of nearby planning jurisdictions and the requirements of State and Federal governing agencies. The implementation of this plan will also consider compatibility and consistency with these governmental bodies. The Public Participation Appendix provides a detailed account of coordinating activities with local and State officials in the making of this land use plan update.

Relationships of Policies and Land Classification QThe City of Havelock Land Use Plan • 1993 0 u II 1993 CAMA Land Use Plan Update Havelock • North Carolina CHAPTER 10: Summary: Relationships of Policies and Land Classification The guidelines set forth by CAMA in section T15A: 07B .0205 require that this Land Use Plan Update relates the general policy statements (Rule .0203) to the Land Classification categories. The comparison shall indicate which land uses are deemed appropriate for the community within the specific land classifications. The following section serves as a summary of the Land Classification Chapter of this document. 0 1. Developed Class The City of Havelock contains four sub -categories within the Developed classification: multi -family residential, single family residential, commercial, and industrial. The City will continue to monitor the compatibility of these uses through implementation of the zoning, subdivision regulations, utilities policies and pending Community Design Plan. Further development in these areas will be executed as indicated, in a general way, on the Land Classification Map. The existing infrastructure will be improved, expanded and maintained as necessary to provide for the continuance of these services to areas falling under this classification. During the past several years, the City has embarked on an aggressive program of infrastructure upgrading. Policy statements and capital improvement plans have been developed scheduling continued work on water, sewer and drainage systems within the City. Other public services such as police and fire protection will be expanded and/or improved as needed Qand/or as indicated in Chapter 7, Estimated Demand. 2. Urban Transition Class The Urban Transition class indicates land areas which will accommodate future urban growth patterns. Necessary steps will be taken to assure that areas classified as Urban Transition will be able to support urban development by being generally free of physical limitations and be served or readily served by urban services. Urban Transition areas as indicated on the Land Classification Map are positioned so as to greatly reduce or eliminate potential land use compatibility problems even in the event of full scale urban development. The type, density, and timing of development in Urban Transition areas are managed under the City's zoning ordinance, subdivision regulations, utility policies and flood damage f y prevention ordinance. 3. Limited Transition Class Areas falling under this classification will contain controlled development of lower density than the Urban Transition class. These lands are generally suited to residential development rather than high f 1 density commercial or industrial. The Limited Transition class within Havelock is intended to provide for moderate development densities with the benefits of both urban services and sound environmental protection guidelines. The City and its extra -territorial jurisdiction may allow controlled private j } installation of urban services in this class. The City has no intention of annexing areas listed under this �j classification in the next five to ten year period.

Community Areas Class The Community Area class indicates primarily low density residential which is supported by minimal municipal services such as fire protection. In some cases, community water may be available. Due primarily to the low density format, public sewer service is generally not provided. Community areas usually take the form of crossroad developments and are located primarily within the extra -territorial jurisdiction around Havelock. Intensive development in this classification is not encouraged. At this time there are no areas classified as Community on the Land Classification Map. n 5. Rural Areas Class (� This classification contains uses dedicated to agriculture, forestry, mineral extraction and other allied (� uses. Very low density residential areas served by private on -site water and sewer services also fall �( under this heading. Rural Areas within Havelock are limited primarily to the extra -territorial jurisdiction. Future development in this class will be as compatible with resource protection and resource management policies as possible. The R-20A zoning district establishes maximum residential densities below 2 units per acre, therefore, reducing the possibility of these areas needing City water and sewer service. 6. Rural with Services Class Rural with Services was established to provide for very low density land uses including residential where water services are provided to avoid existing or projected health problems. It should be noted that provision of these services is not to be used as incentive for future development. This class will be compatible with resource protection policies. At this time the Land Classification Map does not indicate any areas under this heading. 7. Conservation Class The Conservation Class applies to areas requiring strict management and protection of irreplaceable land features located within Havelock and its extra -territorial boundaries. These areas include AECs and other lands having environmentally significant features due to their role in the integrity of the coastal region. All policies relating to AECs and public trust waters as well as other environmentally significant features including swamp forests, bottom land hardwoods and prime wildlife habitat areas apply to this class.
