A large mixed use development proposed for the northern end of Chapel Hill is up for public comment when the Chapel Hill Town Council meets on Monday.

The Edge, as it is known, is planned for 54 acres on Eubanks Road adjacent to the Town’s Park and Ride lot.

Developer Northwood Ravin proposes 23 buildings ranging from one to seven stories. The site will include a mix of retail and commercial space with between 400 and 700 residential units. Up to 50 of those could be affordable rentals subsidized using tax credits.

The site has been earmarked for economic development since 2008. The current plan proposes more square footage on a smaller parcel than the original Edge concept put forward by another developer in 2011.

The public hearing starts at 7 o’clock in Council Chamber at Town Hall. You can read the full agenda here.
