CHAPEL HILL – The Central West Steering Committee is set to present its plan to Chapel Hill Planning Board Tuesday evening.

Members of the Planning Board said at an October 1st meeting, when the drafted plan was first presented by the committee, that they were pleased with it, but wanted more clarification on several issues.

Since December of 2012, the committee has worked to craft its vision for future mixed-use development in the area, which is near the intersection of Estes Dr. and Martin Luther King Jr., Blvd. Recommendations in the detailed plan include uses and heights for the proposed development and suggestions for bicycle and pedestrian amenities.

The committee’s looming deadline is November 25, when it will present final recommendations to the Chapel Hill Town Council for approval.

The Planning Board meeting Tuesday at 7:00 p.m. in the Public Works Building 2 on Millhouse Road.
