2 : Grow harnett County
Harnett County is at an exciting and critical point in its growth and development. Growing from a
population of just 68,000 in 1990, to a 2014 population estimate of 125,717 residents, the County has
evolved from a rural, agricultural community to an increasingly diverse area that is influenced by both
the Research Triangle and Fort Bragg regions of North Carolina.
The most recent population figures indicate that Harnett’s growth will continue to outpace regional, state
and national rates. Anticipated growth is expected to increase the County population by 46% by 2040.
With so much future growth projected, several questions arise about the future of Harnett County.
Where will people live, work and
shop? What steps can the County
take to ensure quality development?
How will growth impact the region’s
resources? Can the existing systems
of infrastructure support additional
people, housing, jobs and cars?
County leaders recognize that these
are all important issues that deserve
careful thought. This plan will help
the community answer some of these
questions and keep Harnett County on
a path to proactively manage growth
in a way that results in a stronger, more
prosperous community.
The projected population and
need for additional jobs, shopping
options and services will result in
significant development, land use,
and transportation impacts on the
county. For these, as well as many
other reasons, the County decided to
proactively address the direction of
growth through the comprehensive
planning process.

A comprehensive growth plan is best described as
a guide to the county’s future. It informs current
and future decision makers on where they are now,
where they want to go, how they intend to get
there, and who will help them along the way.
It is a policy document that defines a direction
forward so that public investment decisions can
be better informed and result in opportunities that
will improve Harnett County’s quality of life and
competitive position in the region, and potentially
stimulate subsequent private-sector investment.
The plan presents a clear vision for the future of
Harnett County and outlines strategies so that the
public and private sectors can jointly implement
the plan. It should be consulted regularly to ensure
conformity of land use decisions and infrastructure
planning and should be updated and revised
periodically to ensure currency.
As illustrated in Figure 2, Grow Harnett County
focuses on five interrelated focus areas: land
use, economic development, natural resources,
transportation and utilities.
This plan should be amended as needed and
updated every 5-8 years to ensure it continues to
address current needs and represent the vision for
Harnett County. Amendments follow the normal
procedures for land use plan adoption

Comprehensive Growth Plan : 5
Harnett has a long-standing tradition of preparing plans to
help guide growth and development decision-making in the
community. Each of these previous efforts resulted in a set of
recommendations that provided the County with a decision-
making framework, and also helped inform the development
of this Growth Plan. It is the next step to ensure that, as
Harnett County grows, it continues to be defined by the
values that make it a unique, inviting and prosperous place to
live and work.
This process allowed many departments and stakeholders
to come together and discuss how the actions of disparate
entities will and can shape the future of Harnett County. At
its core, the Plan will function as an update to the existing
Harnett County Land Use Plan, originally adopted in 1999.
In addition, it builds on previous planning efforts and aligns
individual departmental programs and serves as the general
plan for the development of and investment by the County.

the planninG proCess
The process to create Grow Harnett County was divided into
five phases. The first phase focused on project initiation tasks
such as data collection, a review of existing plans, and studies
and a kick-off meeting and study area tour. During Phase
Two, the consultant team inventoried existing conditions
in the study area to provide an overview of issues and
opportunities to be considered in subsequent phases. During
Phase Three, the Plan Development Phase, alternative land
use scenarios supported by illustrations and imagery were
developed. Based on the results of the previous phases, a
set of recommendations and implementation strategies that
support a preferred scenario were developed during Phase
Four. The final phase of the process consisted of merging all
plan components into a single comprehensive document. This
report is the deliverable of this final phase of work.

Guiding development of the plan was an inclusionary
public engagement process. Understanding community
values ensures that this plan, implemented in accordance
with the recommendations, supports and advances
those priorities over the long term. The process included
traditional methods and new techniques to encourage a
diverse group of citizens to contribute to the plan.
advisory Committee
This effort was guided by an Advisory Committee, made
up primarily of residents and business owners, and also
included representatives from the planning board and
the development community. This group met regularly
through the process to give direction, provide feedback,
and advise the project team on plan concepts and
recommendations. A list of the Advisory Committee
members can be found in the Acknowledgements section
of this document.
teChniCal Committee
A committee made up primarily of Harnett County
staff provided technical support to the planning
effort. Representatives from public safety, economic
development, engineering, parks and recreation, planning
and public utilities. A list of the Technical Committee
members is listed in the Acknowledgements section of
this report.
stakeholder interviews
Stakeholder interviews were conducted to verify and
supplement the data gathered, to explain the conditions
observed and to further understand the issues and
opportunities that affect the study area. The input from
these interviews supplemented the feedback received
directly from citizens and property owners participating
in the process. The stakeholders included key personnel
from County departments as well as representatives
from a variety of interest groups including real estate
developers and brokers, home owners associations,
religious institutions, the school district, health
department and others.
Community meetinGs
Community meetings were held throughout the planning
process to provide an opportunity for the public to
come together and learn about the project and guide
development of the vision for the future of Harnett
County. During the first meeting, residents met to learn
about the project, refine the understanding of issues and
opportunities established by the Advisory Committee
and comment on alternative land use scenarios. An
interactive map was available for conveying land use
and natural resource issues that need to be addressed
through the planning process. The second community
meeting was designed as a visioning session to develop
the Future Land Use element of the project and to
identify strategies to realize this vision.
survey
An online survey was sent out to elected officials,
Advisory Committee members and posted on the Harnett
County website.
major findings from the survey included the following:
►Family ties, small town lifestyle and housing
affordability are the top 3 reasons people choose to
live in Harnett County.
►Rural character, jobs and safety also ranked high.
►Campbell University and the Cape Fear River are
two of Harnett County’s most important assets.
►Major perceived advantages for economic
development include highway accessibility, housing
costs, and quality of life.
►Major perceived disadvantages for economic
development include attractiveness to young
people, quality of public schools and availability
of advanced information and communication
technology services.
►Health and educational services, agriculture and
military industries are most important to Harnett’s
success.

introduCtion
Harnett County has experienced exceptional growth over the past two decades. From a
population of 68,000 in 1990 to an estimate of 125,717 in 2014, Harnett grew by 85%.
With this growth come a variety of opportunities
and challenges. Continued population growth
demands more housing. Additional households
will boost retail spending potential in the County
and drive commercial development. In addition,
there will be demand for more community
services such as schools, parks, and recreation
facilities. New facilities for police, fire, and EMS
will also be required to adequately serve the
area. Similarly, infrastructure improvements will
be needed to manage the demand placed on
transportation and utility systems.
In order to pay for all of these community services
and facilities, Harnett needs to diversify its tax
base. The majority portion of Harnett’s tax base
is supported by residential property taxes. Over
time, this imbalance will result in costs that
exceed available funding, and meeting the needs
of the residents will become increasingly difficult.
Costs incurred to meet the demands of existing
and future residents can be partially offset
through tax revenue generated by nonresidential
development. County leaders know that for
Harnett to capitalize on these opportunities, and
maintain its appeal, it must diversify its tax base
and become a destination for employers and
retailers.
In addition, capitalizing on and protecting the
assets that make Harnett County unique are
equally as important. Ensuring continued viability
of military operations, protecting water quality
in the Cape Fear River to ensure the long-term
viability of our water supply, providing recreation
opportunities for local citizens and regional
tourists, and maintaining the scenic, agricultural
nature of rural areas in the County will all be
critical to ensuring that the quality of life is
preserved and enhanced in coming years.
The following pages summarize the main issues
and opportunities relative to the five focus areas
of the planning effort. A full report of the County’s
existing conditions can be found in the State of
the County document found in the Appendix of
this report.

land use
A historically decentralized, auto-dependent growth pattern
has led to increased traffic, high costs for infrastructure, and
impacts on agricultural lands. Directing growth to locations
appropriate for residential development that are easily served
by infrastructure and have access to jobs and services, while
limiting impacts on natural resources and agriculture, will be
key to the future of Harnett County. Forested and agricultural
lands contribute to the rural character and scenic beauty
that contributes to the quality of life in the county. In addition,
agriculture contributes millions to the local economy and
forests protect water quality and harbor rare and endangered
species. This saves water filtration costs and indirectly
supports military operations that were once hampered
by restrictions imposed due to waning populations of the
endangered red cockaded woodpecker.
Identifying areas ideal for commercial, mixed use, and
industrial development will be critical to increasing the tax
base. Presently commercial, office and industrial development
account for just 3% of the land area of the county, yet they
account for over 10% of the tax value in the county. Increasing
the number of jobs and shopping options inside the county
can allow residents to work and shop in the county as well as
increase the tax base. This can help keep residential property
taxes and infrastructure fees and help pay for services such
as schools and parks. On the opposite side of the spectrum,
some low value residential housing types actually cost the
County more in services than the property taxes that are
contributed. This shows that different land uses have different
fiscal impacts. Considerations of long term fiscal impact
should factor into land use decisions in the future.

eConomiC development
Harnett County’s current economic conditions are being
shaped by global trends that are rapidly changing the
competitive landscape. Urbanization is a significant trend in
NC and around the world. Today more than 90 percent of
the country’s GDP, and 86 percent of the jobs, are located
in urban areas, with more growth happening in larger
communities that offer new 21st century infrastructure
such as commercial airports, research universities and large
hospitals. Educated workers, especially younger workers, are
more attracted to an urban lifestyle. Over the past 30 years
North Carolina has transitioned from 48 percent urban to 66
percent urban, and the increase is accelerating.
Harnett County has only 44 percent of its population living
in the urban areas of the county. Dunn, the largest Harnett
County municipality is the 88th largest in North Carolina and
is about half the size of the southern Wake County cities of
Apex, Holly Springs, Garner and Fuquay-Varina. Four of North
Carolina’s largest cities, #2 Raleigh (425,424), #4 Durham
(241,174), #6 Fayetteville (210,468) and #7 Cary (144,671) are
within very close proximity to Harnett County and create an
attractive draw for younger, more educated workers.
Today, a dense concentration of educated and skilled
labor is often the deciding factor in business locations
and expansions. Having citizens with the right skills is a
prerequisite for most places to successfully compete. Smaller
places are at a disadvantage due to limited concentrations
of talent, but can have a competitive advantage if they can
adjust education and training resources more quickly to meet
market demands.
Finding workers with the right skills is one of businesses’ top
priorities. the talent bar is rising. The types of skills needed
and the types of jobs being created are different than they
were in the past and they will be different in the future. A
recent Bureau of Labor Statistics report concluded that
despite millions of people unemployed in America, businesses
Figure 5: retail leakage

In retail, leakage occurs when members of a community spend money outside that community or when money spent inside that community is
transferred outside the community. Harnett County loses potential sales taxes when retail leakage occurs. Retail leakage figures are significant
and show that there is latent demand in many categories. Identifying areas for future retail and other non-residential, employment bearing uses is
important to the fiscal future of the County.

had millions of job openings with 50 percent saying that they
cannot find the talent they need. While Harnett County’s
educational attainment levels for higher education are below
average compared to its neighbors, its high school graduation
rates are comparable and with a strong effort at specific skill
training, the workforce can effectively compete for jobs. The
key will be a strong partnership with the Central Carolina
Community College and Campbell University.
shifting sector growth is impacting available jobs.
Manufacturing jobs, the foundation for good jobs in many
North Carolina counties, have been reduced dramatically by
globalization and especially by technology advancements.
Automation and efficiencies have eliminated the need for
many workers in many sectors. Although there is continued
consternation about the loss in manufacturing in the United
States, the manufacturing share of national GDP has remained
constant for decades, while the number of workers needed to
produce the products has dropped significantly. In the past,
manufacturing has provided important economic activity and
jobs to Harnett County.
The number of in-county jobs has stagnated since 2000, with
only 147 more jobs in 2014 than in 2000, despite population
growth of over 33,000 during that time. In the same time
period, manufacturing jobs in the county have dropped from
4,184 to 1,491. Wage and income levels for Harnett residents
are below neighboring counties.
Jobs, wages and wealth are moving to the extremes. Job
growth since the end of the recession has been more
concentrated in lower wage service sectors such as food
preparation, administration and sales, and also in highly
skilled, highly educated sectors such as business, scientific
and professional services. Currently there are too few people,
with the specific skills that are in high demand, creating a
supply-demand market that favors the employee and is
driving up the costs of finding highly-qualified labor and also
the wages of those hired.
At the same time, too many people, with limited (or in low
demand) skills, are creating a supply-demand market that
favors the employer, stagnating the wages paid to low skilled
labor and increasing the skill level of those that get hired. One
current result is a shrinking middle class. To combat this trend
within Harnett County, educational attainment levels need
to rise and more citizens need to be trained for in-demand
middle skill jobs.
Fort Bragg has been a major economic influence in the past
decade. It is the largest military installation in the state with
nearly 24,000 active duty military employed on base. Each
year, billions of dollars are contributed to the local economy
from military payrolls and other spending. Many military
families choose to live in southwestern Harnett County due to
the exceptional quality of life the area provides. Increasingly
growth pressures are also coming from the north, as people
desire to locate there and commute to employment centers of
Raleigh, the Research Triangle Park and Holly Springs. No one
can know for sure, but Federal government austerity could
also have a significant dampening impact on growth at Fort
Bragg. Over the next decade, the United States military will
be challenged by budget limitations, but will also face major
transformations due to rapid changes in warfare technology.
111516a HC BOC Page 57

natural resourCes and parks
Harnett County’s natural resources and parks are among its
most valuable assets. Farms and forests contribute $300
million in value added income annually. The Cape Fear River
provides a source of drinking water for the region and when
combined with the Upper Little River, Raven Rock State Park
and Anderson Creek Park, forms a network of recreation
opportunities and open spaces that are unparalleled in the
Triangle and Fort Bragg regions. Undeveloped lands north of
Fort Bragg are critical to training operations. The Sandhills
supports one of the best remaining examples of the rare
and diverse longleaf pine ecosystems which supports the
only population of red-cockaded woodpeckers that has
met its recovery goal. Rivers and floodplain forests serve as
habitat corridors and offer recreational opportunities such as
hiking, camping, nature photography, bird watching, boating,
hunting, and fishing.
As the population increases, there is growing demand for
passive recreational facilities, including greenways, nature
preserves and active facilities, including sports fields and
playgrounds. Harnett County’s natural and wildlife heritage
is threatened by growth pressure that results in conversion
of agricultural lands, timberlands, and wildlife habitats to
urban uses. Many streams are considered impaired due
to stormwater run-off and sedimentation. Conservation
of natural assets and even enhancement can happen in
tandem while accommodating development through best
practices in design, including enhanced land use planning
and encouragment of conservation subdivisions in sensitive
habitats and wildlife travel corridors. a balanced approach to
parks planning that includes passive open space in addition
to active recreation facilities can help provide a diverse set of
recreational opportunities to current and future residents.

transportation
A significant majority of residents, 64 percent, commute
outside Harnett County for work. The County’s jobs to
household ratio are the lowest among neighboring counties,
placing Harnett as a bedroom community for Wake,
Cumberland and Lee counties. Historically, Harnett County
was characterized by rural and agricultural development.
Therefore, many of the highways in the county were
originally intended to be two-lane, farm-to-market roads.
New development, however, has transformed many of these
country roads to major transportation corridors, creating
problems with capacity and safety. Investment in preserving
and improving the access to the economic engines of the
Research Triangle, Fort Bragg and Fayetteville will be critical
to continuing to be an attractive place to live and do business.
Economic and political realities suggest more limited federal
and state assistance to counties in the near future. This
presents significant challenges for infrastructure maintenance
and may limit funding for new location roadways. With public
sector austerity comes a greater need for communities to
maintain mobility through access management controls
on major roads, and by building effective public-private
partnerships at the local level to ensure new development
mitigates impacts to the transportation network via on-site
and off-site improvements. In some urbanizing areas, there is
a growing demand for active transportation options such as
biking, walking and transit. The design of new development
and future roadway improvements, including the degree
to which streets are connected and accommodate multiple
types of users will impact traffic levels and the viability of
alternative transportation in the future.

utilities
Significant investments have been made in the Harnett County
water and sewer systems in recent years. The County is unique
in that the majority of the county is served by water and an
extensive sewer system is maintained that rivals those in larger
cities. Moving forward, it will be critical to define expectations
regarding future capacity and levels of service to ensure that
growth is encouraged where infrastructure exists.
In addition to water and sewer, other utilities, including electric,
natural gas and high-speed internet are key to attracting
certain types of development including commercial, industrial,
professional services, technology and even certain residents.
Continued coordination with private utility providers that
determine where these services are extended is essential to
encouraging economic development.

20 : Grow harnett County
One method to help communities learn about the potential impacts and trade-offs of future
growth and development is through a process called scenario planning.
Scenario planning provides an opportunity to think
and make decisions about the impacts of growth
on the county to develop a common vision for the
future. A trend or Business-As-Usual scenario was
developed to represent what the County would
look like in 2040, given current trends and policy.
Alternative scenarios, based on Harnett County’s
goals and input from the Technical and Advisory
Committee, were developed as alternative paths to
the current course of growth and development.
Potential impacts of growth (positive and
negative) were measured for all of the scenarios
using a set of indicators — measures developed
based on priorities and goals developed by the
Advisory Committee.
From this analysis, and with input from the
Advisory Committee, a Preferred Scenario was
developed that maximizes the performance of
priority indicators. The Future Land Use Plan
was developed from the Preferred Scenario and
refined based on input from the public, Advisory
Committee and elected officials.
For more details on the process and results of
scenario planning please refer to the Appendix of
this report.
Business as usual scenario (Bau)
sCenarios
development of the future land use plan
Following existing policies, the Business-As-Usual
scenario results in:
►scattered low density development that limits utility
demand inside of easily served areas, resulting in
decreased revenues.
►significant impacts to military operations, and
wildlife habitats.
►new development impacting over 38,000 acres of
working lands

strong towns (st)
natural assets scenario (na)
preferred scenario (ps)
Focusing growth near existing towns and planned
activity centers results in the following:
►increased efficiency of the utility systems in the county
►more vibrant towns (83% increase in new homes near
towns)
►reduced impact on military operations on Fort Bragg as
measured by impacts to critical to conserve lands and
within noise zones
►improved the long-term viability of sensitive long-leaf pine
ecosystems by reducing the number of homes near smoke
awareness areas
The Natural Assets Scenario shows that forecasted
growth can be accommodated while accomplishing the
following:
►reduced impacts to wildlife habitat and forest cover by
14,000 acres
►reduced the amount of new impervious surface in water
supply watersheds and high Quality waters
The Preferred Scenario showed that by combining
elements of the three alternatives the following could be
achieved:
►saved 8,000 acres of agricultural lands (which equates to
$1,000,000 in annual tax revenue)
►reduced impacts impacts to the critical to conserve lands
by 50% compared to the Bau scenario
►increased utility demand by 2.5 mgd in utility Focus areas
(areas easily served by sewer). this equates to $750,000
per year in potential revenue)

22 : Grow harnett County
introduCtion
The Harnett community envisions a future where the county will continue to grow and prosper
in a way that promotes a high quality of life, capitalizes on and protects the assets that make
Harnett County unique, and ensures that all Harnett residents have access to a variety of
housing, transportation, recreation and employment options.
The Future Land Use Plan was derived from the
Preferred Scenario after further refinement based
on coordination with the Technical Team and
input from the public, Advisory Committee and
elected officials. It is a conceptual representation
of the development patterns leaders and citizens
of Harnett County envision for the future. The
map is descriptive, not prescriptive, conveying
the intended primary uses in different areas. This
map is a concept and should be interpreted with
flexibility to accommodate market opportunities
and isolated compatible uses.
There are 11 land use categories illustrated on
the map. Each land use category is intended
to indicate a predominant land use—or set
of uses—as well as other features that define
the character of development in connection
with the category. A brief description of each
category is provided below. Each description
is consistent with the ideas and vision the
community has for the future development
pattern. These descriptions do not propose
a change to existing development within
each category; instead, they suggest a
complementary direction moving forward
and list qualities to be embodied by new
development and redevelopment.
future land use plan
Guide Growth in a manner that is Consistent with the future land use map.
The Comprehensive Growth Plan and the Future Land Use Map contained within it are intended to
guide decisions of County leaders regarding future growth and development within the community.
The implementation of the Plan must be facilitated through strong political will and effective tools,
such as zoning and subdivision regulations in the Unified Development Ordinance. To ensure effective
implementation, the County should:
►Promote the policies outlined in the Plan.
►examine existing codes and standards to ensure the implementation of the Plan is possible.
►Preview development proposals for consistency with the Future land use map.

111516a HC BOC Page 66
24 : Grow harnett County
environmental and military areas
protected areas: Parks and other forms of protected open space, including large conservation
easements.
environmentally sensitive areas: Environmentally sensitive areas, including floodplains and areas
located in the Conservation Overlay Zoning District. Primary uses in these areas would be open space,
forestry, and agriculture.
Compatibility development target areas: Areas where water and sewer is readily available and
residential developments are recommended to take advantage of the Compatibility Development option
in the Unified Development Ordinance (UDO). This option allows for greater flexibility in lot sizes in
exchange for higher amounts of open space. This allows for clustering development in order to preserve
rural views and key natural features such as habitat corridors and farmland.
military Corridor Buffer: Critical and Important to Conserve Lands as identified by the Fort Bragg JLUSE
within 1 mile of the base and parcels > 50 acres within ½ mile of Fort Bragg. Except those lands with
existing or pending development (i.e. Lexington Plantation, Anderson Creek Club, Walmart), proposed
Compact Mixed Use Areas, and lands east of Ray Road. Proposed development in these areas is meant to
be reviewed by the Federal Government to ensure compatibility with Fort Bragg operations.
aGriCultural and rural residential areas
agricultural and rural residential: Primarily agricultural and forestry uses with some rural residential
areas. These areas are located outside of existing and future sewer service areas and rely on septic
systems for wastewater treatment. They have a limited road network and in some cases lie within High
Quality Watershed or Water Supply Watershed areas. The lack of utility and transportation infrastructure,
the established low density development pattern and ongoing agricultural activities in these areas
contribute to their rural character. This character can be enhanced by encouraging only low intensity
uses, single family residential up to one unit per acre and context sensitive rural design.

residential areas
low density residential: Single family detached residential intended to remain predominantly suburban in character and
provide for low density single-family residential development on lots smaller than those in Rural Residential areas. Gross
densities of 1-3 dwelling units per acre depending on utilities, soils and character of adjacent development.
medium density residential: Medium density residential with a mix of housing types including single family detached homes
with average lot sizes, small-lot homes and patio homes. Gross densities of 2-5 dwelling units per acre. Located in areas
served by current or planned utilities or in areas near the extra-territorial jurisdiction (ETJ) of towns. Additional housing types
(including townhomes and apartments) and higher densities may be appropriate as part of planned developments or near
Development Nodes.
development nodes
rural Centers: Small scale commercial centers. The exact location and extent of the Rural Centers will be market driven,
however, the non-residential footprint will usually be less than 50,000 square feet in these areas.
Compact mixed use: These areas are meant to be nodes or activity centers for growing areas in the County. They are located
near concentrations of existing or planned residences, and areas with access to major thoroughfares and utilities. These
areas incorporate commercial uses including grocery stores, retail establishments, restaurants and services. Office, civic and
institutional uses should complement commercial uses. Higher density residential including small lot single-family, townhomes
and apartments should be located in close proximity to shopping and service destinations and complimented by pedestrian
facilities to provide more walking opportunities to internal and external destinations. The exact location and size of non-
residential areas will be dependent on market conditions.
employment mixed use: These areas are located along major thoroughfares and include prime locations for economic
development opportunities. Uses encouraged in the Employment Mixed Use areas include but are not limited to industrial,
warehouse, office, research and development, tech-flex, medical, energy and distribution. Residential development is
appropriate only when not in conflict with existing or future industry or commercial uses.

Goal LU-3
Promote quality commercial and retail development at well-located sites in order to
help reverse retail leakage trends.
policy lu-3.1
Encourage commercial and retail development at the intersections of existing and planned arterials in
and near Development Nodes as identified on the Future Land Use Map.
policy lu-3.2
Preserve/improve access to high potential sites by requiring access management along major arterials
and planning for a connected collector street network in the vicinity of Development Nodes.
►Strategy LU-3.2.1: develop small-area concept plans that can be used to brand and market
potential retail and mixed-use centers as well as illustrate access points, collector street
configurations and cross sections, building orientation and other design features.
policy lu-3.3
Promote pedestrian oriented design near Development Nodes to appeal to consumer preferences for
more attractive, walkable centers.
►Strategy LU-3.3.1: consider design guidelines or standards similar to the highway corridor overlay
district for compact mixed use areas.
►Strategy LU-3.3.2: require new buildings, near development nodes, to be located close to the
street with minimal parking in front. consider revising udo to include maximum setbacks in
addition to minimum setbacks (based on total right-of-way needed with planned improvements).
policy lu-3.4
Require pedestrian facilities in new developments near Development Nodes and in Low Density and
Medium Density Residential Areas.
policy lu-3.5
Encourage public greenspace or plazas as organizing elements and destinations within Development
Nodes.
111516a HC BOC Page 72
Comprehensive Growth Plan : 31
Commercial and retail development should be encouraged in and near Development Nodes.
Buildings should be oriented towards the street with minimal parking in front. Landscaping and
street trees should be located along internal and external roads.

Goal LU-4
Accommodate a mixture of housing types in appropriate areas.
policy lu-4.1
Promote higher density residential (apartments, townhomes, and small-lot homes) in areas within
walking distance (1/2 to 1 mile) of Development Nodes.
Goal LU-5
Promote and maintain the rural character and agricultural economy of the
County.
policy lu-5.1
Implement Goals from Working Lands Protection Plan and protect prime agriculture lands and
active farming operations from incompatible development.
policy lu-5.2
Limit expansion of sewer service into areas designated as Agricultural and Rural Residential on
the Future Land Use Map to limit impact on agricultural operations.
policy lu-5.3
Promote low density, context sensitive residential in the Agricultural and Rural Residential areas
shown on the Future Land Use Map.
►Strategy LU-5.3.1: allow flexibility in street design if rural residential standards are met.
revise udo as necessary to allow for this type of development. see Figure 10 for more
information.
policy lu-5.4
Expand assistance for voluntary land conservation.
►Strategy LU-5.4.1: Provide printed information on statewide, regional and local land
conservation programs in the planning department and other county offices and through the
county web page.
policy lu-5.5
Encourage retention of mature forest.
►Strategy LU-5.5.1: encrourage tree retention through defining criteria for designating
significant trees and updating the unified development ordinance to include guidance on
preservation (see section 9.5.1.8 of Pinehurst’s development ordinance for an example of how
to define and preserve significant trees).
111516a HC BOC Page 74
Comprehensive Growth Plan : 33
Figure 10: context sensitive rur al residential examPle (in suPPort oF lu -5)
Many areas of Harnett County are rural in nature and offer scenic views of farms and fields from farm-to-market roads.
These areas, particularly those in the Agricultural and Rural Residential area on the Future Land Use Map may not be
appropriate for traditional suburban development due to lack of utilities and transportation infrastructure. The rural
character of these areas could be preserved by promoting low impact, context sensitive rural development by offering
flexibility in street design if Rural Residential standards are met.
Design criteria could include:
►20 lot maximum
►average lot size > 1 acre
►design of home sites to preserve key views and
natural features
►minimal grading and disturbance of mature trees
and wildlife habitat
►alternative street standards
►swale sections (instead of curb and gutter)
►reduced sidewalk requirements (i.e. trails or multi-
use path)
►open space requirements

Goal LU-6
Promote compatible uses in areas adjacent to Fort Bragg and Harnett Regional
Jetport (Airport).
policy lu-6.1
Coordinate with the Federal Government and the Regional Land Use Advisory Committee to
ensure that development in or near the Military Corridor Buffer areas included on the Future Land
Use Map is compatible with Fort Bragg military operations.
policy lu-6.2
Promote compatible land uses in the vicinity of the Airport by allowing only those land uses and/
or building construction methods that will minimize safety concerns in accident potential zones
and be compatible with noise from airport operations.

The 2011 Cost of Land Use Fiscal Impact Analysis conducted by TischlerBise on behalf of the Fort
Bragg Regional Alliance shows that certain types of development result in net fiscal benefits and
others cost more in services than they provide in revenue. The fiscal impacts of potential new
development should factor into land use and infrastructure decisions.

The most important factor for successful economic development is building a community product
that is attractive to potential investors. The presence of Interstate 95 is a major attribute for Harnett
County and makes opportunities along the interstate the most likely location for some types of new
investments. Harnett County also enjoys a competitive advantage with abundant water resources and
therefore should consider industry targets that require high quality water sources. In addition, the
proximity to Fort Bragg and growing opportunities at Campbell University provide opportunities to
develop industry that supports military and “ed-med” operations. By focusing on the county’s assets
and best opportunities for growth, this plan recommends focusing economic development efforts
within each of the following target sectors:
►military support & defense technologies
►medical equipment and supplies
►automotive parts manufacturing
►Food and Beverage Processing & agriculture
►Business services
►logistics
►larger scale retail
Based on local input, best practices research, and the current availability of very limited resources,
this plan recommends that the Harnett County Economic Development Office focus equally on the
following four goals.
Goal ED-1: Start a business attraction and marketing effort.
Goal ED-2: Support existing industry to encourage retention and expansion of
jobs.
Goal ED-3: Build a better overall economic product.
Goal ED-4: Build organizational capacity.
eConomiC development Goals
111516a HC BOC Page 78
Comprehensive Growth Plan : 37
eConomiC development strateGies
Goal ED-1
Start a business attraction and marketing effort.
strategy ed-1.1
Develop a “to-market” positioning “brand” around cost-competitiveness, I-95, proximity to Wake
County and Fort Bragg, business-friendliness, and the opportunities of a growing Campbell
University and the training resources of Central Carolina Community College (CCCC).
strategy ed-1.2
Update and strengthen the economic development web site.
strategy ed-1.3
Establish a more integrated and formal partnership and plan with Campbell University to work
jointly to create new jobs through commercialized research, student and alumni entrepreneurship,
and campus service and support needs.
strategy ed-1.4
Focus proactive business attraction activities on companies within a 75-mile radius of Harnett
County that meet the county’s targets.
strategy ed-1.5
Aggressively partner with the Research Triangle Regional Partnership (RTRP), the NC
Department of Commerce and EDPNC to generate more domestic clients.
strategy ed-1.6

strategy ed-1.7
Grow the budget for Harnett County marketing to targeted clients and to key site selectors in
target industries by $75,000 to $100,000 to support a full-time business recruitment specialist.
strategy ed-1.8
Design a call program on major real estate firms in Wake, Durham and Cumberland counties to
share product inventory.
strategy ed-1.9
Develop additional marketing content based on positioning “brand”. Most of the content will be
in the form of electronic information for the targeted audiences. Specific information on certified
building and sites, available workforce, and incentives should be emphasized.

Comprehensive Growth Plan : 39
Goal ed-2
support existing industry to encourage retention and expansion of jobs.
strategy ed-2.1
Structure a visitation program in conjunction with municipalities, chambers of commerce, and
other partners. A partnership with CCCC and their current visitation program would provide a
strong jumpstart and synergy for discussions on workforce.
strategy ed-2.2
Create a lunch conversation program for existing major private employers with the County
Commissioners and County Manager.
strategy ed-2.3
Conduct a business bus tour of major employer facilities for County Commissioners.
strategy ed-2.4
Partner with other organizations to create an on-line business support and assistance guide
including employee training options.
strategy ed-2.5
Develop an economic development annual program to engage and recognize existing business
contributions to job growth or product improvement in the County.
strategy ed-2.6
Position the Economic Development Commission as supportive, but not leading, in workforce
development issues and entrepreneurial support, further positioning the Commisssion as the
focal point for economic development issues and economic data.
strategy ed-2.7
Conduct the first of an annual survey of business to determine issues of concern.
The North Carolina Certified Site Program states:
To obtain the Certified Sites designation, communities must undergo a stringent review process that
demonstrates that they’ve addressed 31 prerequisites, including business/industrial use designation,
phase I environment audits, geo-technical studies, topographical analysis and maps, aerial photography,
availability of public utilities, industrial power quality, engineered site development plans, detailed analysis
of development cost, and complete information on pricing.
In recent years nearby counties such as Randolph, Wilson and Chatham Counties have
developed aggressive mega-site programs to attract new investment. Significant public
funds have been allocated to position the sites for investment.
111516a HC BOC Page 81

▲Western Harnett Industrial Park ▲Central Harnett Hospital
Goal ED-3
Build a better overall economic product.
strategy ed-3.1
Develop a realistic inventory of “ready” buildings and sites based on a “Certified” model.
strategy ed-3.2
Partner with County and municipal utility providers to accurately establish current utility
availability to targeted sites.
strategy ed-3.3
Promote the inventory with EDPNC and regional partners.
strategy ed-3.4
Develop a consistent, transparent and aggressive local incentives policy for new and expanding
job creation. Job creation and taxable investment thresholds should be set and a strong legal
“claw back” provision should be included in the standard agreements.
strategy ed-3.5
Support and encourage entrepreneurial training, career and technical education programs
developed in partnership with the public schools.
strategy ed-3.6
Conduct a review of the planning approval process to insure that Harnett County has a
competitive advantage on time and certainty.
strategy ed-3.7
Coordinate with school board to ensure adequate facilities and programs support future land use
and economic development efforts.
111516a HC BOC Page 82
Comprehensive Growth Plan : 41
Goal ed-4
Build organizational capacity.
The current operational capacity of the economic development effort is not sufficient to complete the
recommendations included in this plan. Additional and skilled personnel and additional marketing funds
are need over the next few years. During the first year support from other county staff can help, but in
subsequent years the County should explore a longer term solution that might be best served by some
form of public-private partnership.
strategy ed-4.1
Evaluate the creation of a public-private partnership that would jointly fund and administer the County’s
economic development effort.
strategy ed-4.2
Increase economic development internal support and capacity.
strategy ed-4.3
Develop a strong private sector and public partner economic development advisory council to provide
input and support.
strategy ed-4.4
Develop a “public” dashboard of recent economic data.
strategy ed-4.5
Partner with Campbell University for “State of the County” annual event to reset current reality and
provide a future forum for the review of progress.
strategy ed-4.6
Partner with Campbell University to secure senior interns to help with the initial action steps of this plan.
strategy ed-4.7
Create a public executive summary of this plan to share broadly with all economic development
stakeholders across the county.
Public-Private Partnerships:
The Chatham County Economic Development Corporation is a good example of a public-
private partnership that receives public funds and private donations. Governance, in
the form of a board of directors, includes both public appointees and others from the
private sector. The annual operating budget is $500,000-$600,000 annually; but even
so marketing funds are usually less than $100,000. The organization’s strategic plan
prioritizes improving the physical product, increasing support to existing businesses,
creating new recruitment clients, and leading a workforce development transition.

natural resourCe Goals
Goal NR-1: Protect High-Quality Waters in the County that preserve habitat for
the Cape Fear Shiner and other rare aquatic species.
Goal NR-2: Encourage compatible development in areas with high-quality
environmental features.
Goal NR-3: Position Harnett County as a Destination for Eco-Tourism.
Goal NR-4: Provide active and passive recreation opportunities to preserve and
enhance the quality of life.
Goal NR-5: Raise awareness of the county’s unique natural assets.
In all areas of the County residents have a desire for access to active and passive recreational
opportunities close to home. Active recreational facilities and programs including ball fields,
playgrounds and sports leagues have been the focus of County recreation efforts over the past decade
or more. Citizens have expressed a growing desire to access to passive recreational opportunities
as well. Passive recreation includes biking or jogging on a greenway, hiking in nature preserves and
paddling on the Cape Fear River.
Harnett County is located at the intersection of the Piedmont, Sandhills and Coastal Plain regions. This
provides for a mix of habitats that are home to 56 species considered rare or recognized by the state
or federal government as priority, threatened or endangered. In addition, Harnett County is home
to a number of headwater streams that feed the Cape Fear River and provide drinking water to the
region. The Cape Fear River and other waterways also offer recreational opportunities that are key to
positioning the County as a regional ecotourism destination.
Habitat fragmentation and loss due to urbanization along with water quality degradation from
sedimentation and non-point source pollution via stormwater run-off are significant threats to Harnett
County’s natural assets. In the northern part of the County the biggest concern is protecting riparian
habitat and rural character in the Neill’s Creek Basin and the High-Quality Waters that include Parker,
Avetts and Hector Creek. In the Southwestern part of the County the primary concern is protecting
and restoring a connected system of uplands—primarily long-leaf pine forests to provide rare species
corridors to move from Carvers Creek State Park and the Fort Bragg military base to other major
habitat hubs in Anderson Creek Park and along the Lower Little River.
The Plan includes goals, policies and strategies that, if followed, will allow the County to accommodate
development while providing active and passive open space as an amenity, protect terrestrial and
aquatic ecosystems, preserve water quality and address major concerns in the areas listed above.
111516a HC BOC Page 84
Comprehensive Growth Plan : 43
natural resourCe strateGies
Goal nr-1
protect high-Quality waters in the County that preserve habitat for the Cape fear shiner and other rare aquatic species.
policy nr-1.1
Encourage Low Impact Development (LID) techniques in High-Quality Watersheds (Parker, Avetts and
Hector Creeks) and Water Supply Watersheds (Neills Creek and others).
►Strategy NR-1.1.1: improve stream forest protection incentives and requirements, especially in
watersheds with impaired streams or threatened streams.
►strategy nr-1.1.2: encourage reduced development footprints and disconnected impervious surfaces.
►strategy nr-1.1.3: Promote innovative stormwater infrastructure (bio-swales, rain gardens, etc.).
Goal nr-2
encourage compatible development in areas with high-quality environmental features.
policy nr-2.1
Discourage development in floodplains.
policy nr-2.2
Discourage habitat fragmentation and promote the the connectivity of open spaces across the landscape.
►Strategy NR-2.2.1: encourage the conservation of areas of high biodiversity (identified on the ncdenr
Biodiversity and wildlife habitat assessment map in the appendix), natural heritage natural areas,
mature forest, riparian areas, and other unique natural features such as rock outcrops, vernal pools,
seeps, and long-leaf pine forests (areas where existing long-leaf pine forests are likely are identified in
the Potential upland habitat map in the appendix).
►Strategy NR-2.2.2: consider utilizing the n.c. wildlife commission conservation green growth
toolbox during the development review process by requiring the creation of project specific maps (by
staff or applicant) using the north carolina natural heritage data explorer or available gis data (i.e. the
nc wrc green growth toolbox conservation data layers).
An effective way to minimize impacts to wildlife and other natural resources is to use
conservation data as a first step in development review procedures. This approach has
been used by Chatham County since 2008 and they have documented a significant
reduction in time to development approval and staff time needed to guide developments
to approval.

▲Illustrations of Conceptual Development Scenarios that Incorporate Key Habitat Connections as Open
Space Amenities in Exchange for Incentives (i.e. Density Bonus or Lower Minimum Lot Size)
policy nr-2.3
Provide incentives such as density bonuses to promote context-sensitive development.
►Strategy NR-2.3.1: define/refine compatibility development target areas (cdtas) and
incentivize conservation subdivisions (40%+ open space) through flexible lot sizes in cdtas
with access to sewer.
►Strategy NR-2.3.2: review and adjust incentives in udo periodically to ensure that
compatibility developments are an attractive option.
►Strategy NR-2.3.3: revise udo to specify priority conservation areas that should be set aside
as open space in compatibility developments using section 3 of the ncwrc green growth
toolbox and model natural resources conservation ordinance for guidance.
Policy NR-2.4: Preserve and restore the Longleaf Pine (LLP) ecosystem.
►Strategy NR-2.4.1: consider an upland open space requirement or incentive (i.e. additional
density bonuses) tied to conserve priority wildlife habitats such as longleaf pine forests in the
southwestern harnett cdta .

The decentralized pattern of growth in Harnett County has led to increased traffic, significant commute
times and added costs for residents. Improving access to regional destinations is the paramount
transportation concern. Maintaining mobility on key arterials, adding a connected road network as
growth occurs, and providing multi-modal transportation options are other key issues.
The location and intensity of development envisioned in the Future Land Use map is meant to decrease
trip length and vehicle miles traveled. The Goals, policies and strategies below are meant to support
the Future Land Use map, guide the update of the Harnett County Comprehensive Transportation Plan
(CTP) as well as address other issues related to transportation and mobility.
Goal TRANS-1: Develop a strategy to get a four-lane road constructed from Harnett
to Wake County.
Goal TRANS-2: Improve the efficiency of the local road network.
Goal TRANS-3: Provide for multi-modal transportation options near Development
Nodes and in Residential Focus Areas of the County.
Goal TRANS-4: Develop a Countywide Greenway System.

The Harnett County Department of Public Utilities provides water and/or wastewater services to the
majority of County residents (~95,000 people). The department also supplies water to Lillington,
Angier, Erwin, Coats, Fuquay-Varina, Holly Springs, Spring Lake, Linden, Johnston County, Moore
County and Fort Bragg. Recently the County entered into a revised water supply capacity agreement
with Moore County expanding Moore County’s supply to 3 MGD. Current wastewater treatment
capacity totals 20.6 MGD. The North Harnett Regional wastewater treatment plant (WWTP) has a
capacity of 5.6 MGD and the South Harnett WWTP has a capacity of 15 MGD. There are plans to expand
the North Harnett WWTP from 5.6 MGD to 7.5 MGD.
The Harnett County Department of Public Utilities currently coordinates with municipalities to serve
existing customers and new development. Continued coordination will be essential to support
economic development with utility investments and planning. The Goals, policies and strategies below
are meant to guide coordination efforts between Harnett County Planning, Harnett County Public
Utilities, municipalities as well as infrastructure planning and investment decisions.

The current Harnett County Water and Sewer Ordinance states that
Developers must demonstrate that a project will yield a minimum value
of $250,000 tax base per lot in order for the Harnett County Department
of Public Utilities Director to assist in easement acquisition. This threshold
should be re-evaluated in light of the Updated Future Land Use Map and fiscal
impact trends of new development to determine an appropriate criteria for
determining if Harnett County should intervene to encourage connection to
gravity lines.

►Strategy U-4.2.1: update easement acquisition policies to enable greater flexibility for harnett
county to intervene on behalf of developers’ to allow connections to neill’s creek basin gravity
sewer line (west of angier).
►Strategy U-4.2.2: consider the adoption of a utility allocation policy to promote economic
development and manage limited capacity in areas where transmission capacity is limited and/
or a certain type of development is desired (i.e. non-residential).
Goal u-5
support the provision of natural gas in underserved areas.
policy u-5.1
Coordinate with service providers and private stakeholders to plan for natural gas extension to
spur non-residential development in underserved areas including the NC 87 Corridor.

Knightdale’s Water Allocation Policy is an example of an innovative approach
to encouraging quality development. A proposed development must obtain
a certain number of points to receive water allocation if the proposal is over
a minimum density. Points can be awarded for non-residential uses, roadway
improvements, gateway improvements, transit facilities, and amenities
(including greenways). See Knightdale’s Ordinance for more details.

Scenario planning is a method to learn about the future of a county. In this process, a
GIS-based land use model was constructed using CommunityViz, a software extension to
ArcGIS Desktop created by Placeways LLC. The land use model was developed to examine
the probable distributions of households and employment locations in 2040 based on the
availability and suitability of land and varying land use policies.
The number of projected homes and jobs in 2040
were held constant between all scenarios. A trend or
Business-As-Usual scenario was developed to represent
what the County would look like in 2040, given current
trends and policy. Alternative scenarios, based on
Harnett County’s goals and input from the Technical
and Advisory Committee, were developed as alternative
paths to the current course of growth and development.
Potential impacts of growth (positive and negative)
were measured for all of the scenarios using a set
of indicators. The preferred scenario, or Future
Land Use Plan was developed to maximize priority
indicators. See the following pages for maps of
forecasted homes and jobs for each scenario and
indicator results.

alternative Growth patterns
The Future Land Use Concept graphically represents
a county-wide vision of the future. The process
to develop this Concept began with an evaluation
of the Business-as-Usual trendline. Based on
feedback received from the public and the Advisory
Committee, three alternative scenarios were created
to analyze the potential impacts of growth (both
positive and negative) on the County.
Each scenario includes assumptions regarding land
use policy changes and infrastructure investment
choices that result in alternative development
patterns. These development patterns are shown
in the maps below. The forecasted impacts of the
alternative scenarios are summarized in the report
card on the opposite page.

Introduction
a Plan for Harnett’s future
Harnett has experienced exceptional growth over the past
two decades� From a population of just 68,000 in 1990,
to a 2013 population estimate of 124,987 residents, the
County has evolved from a rural, agriculture community
to a diverse location within the Fort Bragg region of North
Carolina� Harnett’s location and relatively low cost of living
continue to draw thousands of residents to its boundaries�
Harnett looks forward to continued growth� The County’s
proximity to Raleigh and Fayetteville and the Highway
87 and I-95 corridors make Harnett County a desirable
location for residents, businesses, and industry� Local
leaders recognize that, for Harnett County to capitalize on
this market opportunity, an update to the Comprehensive
Plan was needed�
►how will this growth shape harnett’s identity?
►What bold moves can the County make to ensure that the
rural character remains while providing for new residents
joining the community?
►how can the County continue to support strong and safe
neighborhoods and thriving businesses?
►What does it take to position harnett for continued success?
This planning process is designed to work with the
community to answer these questions, develop a widely-
supported vision and identify the investments needed to
realize that vision for the County�

HousIng and transPortatIon Costs
Traditional measures of housing affordability ignore
transportation costs� Typically a household’s second-
largest expenditure, transportation costs are largely a
function of the proximity of jobs and housing� Factoring
in both housing and transportation costs provides a more
comprehensive way of thinking about the cost of housing
and true affordability�

Natural resource Issues
Water access passive recreation Active recreAtion
Forest and Farm Preservation
SpecieS preServation
The Cape Fear River
and Upper Little
River offer great
opportunities for
tourism. New and
improved canoe/kayak
launches could allow
greater access to these
natural resources.
Harnett County
Parks & Recreation
maintains two parks
with passive recreation
opportunities
(Anderson Creek Park
and Cape Fear River
Trail Park). Reserving
land for additional
passive recreation
and amenities (nature
parks, trails, and
greenways) will be
important to preserving
the quality of life in
Harnett County.
Harnett County Park
& Recreation partners
with local, state and
federal agencies with
the goal of providing
comprehensive
recreation and leisure
opportunities for all
citizens. Five county
parks are maintained,
which have a variety
of active recreation
facilities including
baseball/softball
fields, tennis courts,
a disc golf course
and playgrounds.
Additional facilities
will be needed as the
County grows.
Farmland and forests
contribute to the
scenic quality of the
County’s rural areas.
They also contribute
over $300 million in
value-added income
to the local economy.
Residential growth in
rural areas can increase
development pressure
and threaten the
viability of agricultural
and timber production.
The Cape Fear Shiner,
the Red-Cockaded
Woodpecker, and
the Rough-Leaved
loosestrife are federally
endangered species
that call Harnett
County home. In
addition 22 types
of species are listed
as Federal Species
of Concern. Clean
water and connected
wildlife corridors and
habitats are essential to
preserving biodiversity.
Water Quality
Urban stormwater
and agriculture
runoff, which
includes sediment
and chemicals, have
unfortunately polluted
and impaired many
creeks in Harnett
County. Low impact
development (LID)
techniques such as
reducing impervious
surfaces and retaining
vegetated riparian
(stream) buffers can
help improve water
quality.
Harnett County has a rich history and
is home to a number of significant
cultural resources that help to define
the county’s identity and provide
unique tourism destinations. These
destinations include the Averasboro
Civil War Battlefield and Museum,
the Coats Cotton Museum, the Coats
History Museum, the General William
C. Lee Airborne Museum, and the
Gourd Museum. Historic structures,
including the Historic Summerville
Presbyterian Church, the Old Bluff
Church, and the Campbell House
combine with historic downtowns and
rolling agricultural lands to create a
beautiful landscape with deep roots.

It is important to protect the whole suite of species found in the ecosystems where endangered species occur. When connected ecosystems
are conserved we prevent the further decline of unlisted species and populations of endangered species that could become further
threatened. Endangered species are our canaries in the coal mine and are a signal that our natural landscapes are in trouble, which can be
important to human welfare and health, and to preserving our cultural heritage. Safeguarding rare species has tangible benefits to tax payer
and the economy. For example water treatment costs are reduced by 20% for every 10% of forest or native grassland in the watershed.

tHe rwC safe Harbor Program
“The North Carolina Red-cockaded
woodpecker Safe Harbor Program is a
state program authorized through an
agreement between u�S� Fish and wildlife
Service and North Carolina wildlife
Resources Commission (wRC) under the
federal endangered Species act (eSa)�
The agreement allows wRC to enter
into voluntary Safe Harbor Management
agreements with non-federal landowners
who agree to implement land management
techniques that benefit RCws in exchange
for regulatory assurances that no additional
eSa restrictions will be imposed as a
result of their management actions�
Landowners decide whether or not they
want to participate in the program and a
management agreement can be terminated
with a 60-day written notice to wRC�”

Did you know?
Harnett County is home to
56 species considered rare or
recognized by the state or federal
government as priority, threatened
or endangered species?
Some species including the
Carolina Redhorse fish, the
Sandhills Salamander and the
Carolina Sandhills Crayfish are
found in our region and nowhere
else in the world.
tHreats
Sedimentation and stormwater run-off are major
threats to water quality and aquatic ecosystems
Dispersed residential development can cause
habitat fragmentation and sever ties between
populations of species.
HabItats
Harnett County’s unIQue HabItats
HabItat needs of key sPeCIes
Harnett County is home to a number of headwater streams that provide drinking water to the region’s residents. Forests and farmlands provide timber and food for
nearby residents and contribute to the region’s economy. Undeveloped lands north of Fort Bragg are critical to training operations. The Sandhills supports one of the best
remaining examples of the rare and diverse longleaf pine ecosystems which supports the only population of red-cockaded woodpeckers that has met its recovery goal.
Rivers and floodplain forests serve as habitat corridors and offer recreational opportunities such as hiking, camping, nature photography, bird watching, boating, hunting,
and fishing to name a few. A county’s natural and wildlife heritage can be conserved through enhanced land use planning and by encouraging conservation subdivisions in
sensitive habitats and wildlife travel corridors. Conservation subdivisions cost less to build and maintain and homes near natural areas sell for up to 20 to 36 percent more.
Longleaf pine forest provide habitat
for red-cockaded woodpeckers,
fox squirrels, and other rare and
endangered plants and animals
Carolina Bays provide habitat for Sandhills Salamanders waterfowl and
juvenile gamefish. Small Carolina Bays and many bogs and seeps may not
be protected by state or federal regulations. The upland wildlife habitat
surrounding these wetlands is not regulated by state or federal laws.
Blackwater streams in the southern part of the county serve as headwaters
for cities downstream. Wetlands and forests along these streams protect or
drinking water and priority wildlife habitat.
Ravens Rock State Park provides a
habitat hub for Bald Eagles in the
center of the County.

Conclusion
The following set of issues and opportunities were identified during the assessment, refined by the advisory Committee and supplemented with feedback gathered
during the first community meeting�
key Issues and oPPortunItIes
eConomIC develoPment
►Strong population growth.
►High growth rate in young working population cohort.
►Significant retail leakage.
►Majority of residents work somewhere else.
►Lower wages and personal incomes compared to neighboring counties.
►Lower percentage of higher educated population compared to neighboring counties.
►Bedroom community status with limited industrial growth in County.
land use
►Return on investment should be a factor in land use decisions and is important to the financial health of Harnett County.
►Identifying prime locations for industrial and distribution operations and protecting these locations from incompatible development will be an important step in encouraging future
economic development.
►Identifying ideal locations for new commercial and retail development is necessary to help reverse retail leakage trends.
►Decentralized growth and “leapfrog” development has led to high costs for infrastructure and other government services.
►Replacing working lands with lower priced single family homes (i.e. $130k for Harnett County) results in a significant loss in revenue (about $3 per acre in Harnett County) AND an annual
deficit in costs of services for the same acre of land.
utIlItIes
►Water lines exist throughout the county, but many lines are not sufficient for major subdivisions.
►Cape Fear River is a valuable water source for the region
►Future land use plan needs to manage expectations and be informed by water and sewer capacity (current and planned).
►Economic development marketing should be targeted at locations with water and sewer capacity.
►Long term plan needed for trunk lines and potential location of regional pump stations.
►Standards for requiring developers to install/connect to existing gravity sewer lines are needed.
►Opportunity to establish thresholds for cost share and model developer agreements for reimbursement of up-front investments).
►Continue to build on working relationship with municipalities regarding service provision and annexation.
natural resourCes
►Parker, Avetts and Hector Creeks in the northwestern part of the county are considered High Quality Waters by the Division of Water Quality. Protecting these creeks will preserve
habitat for the Cape Fear Shiner and other rare aquatic species.
►Urban stormwater and agriculture runoff, which includes sediment and chemicals, have polluted and impaired many creeks in Harnett County.
►Low impact development (LID) techniques such as reducing impervious surfaces and retaining vegetated riparian (stream) buffers can help improve water quality.
►The Cape Fear River and Upper Little River offer great opportunities for tourism. New and improved canoe/kayak launches could allow greater access to these natural resources.
►Providing active and passive recreation opportunities will be key to preserving and enhancing the quality of life in Harnett County.
►Farmland and forests contribute to the scenic quality of the County’s rural areas. They also contribute over $300 million in value-added income to the local economy.
►Residential growth in rural areas can increase development pressure and threaten the viability of agricultural and timber production.
►Harnett County is home to 56 species considered rare or recognized by the state or federal government as priority, threatened, or endangered. Protecting connected ecosystems may
prevent the further decline of listed species and unlisted species that could become threatened by habitat fragmentation.
►Continued recovery of the Red-cockaded Woodpecker (and the longleaf pine ecosystem) is critical to maintaining training operations on Fort Bragg.
transPortatIon
►Due to the size of the county and decentralized populations maintaining existing roads will require significant costs in the future.
►There is a need for four lane roads to Wake County and Cumberland County.
►Costs of transportation needs are likely to exceed state and federal funding streams available to Harnett County in the coming years.
►Many Harnett County residents commute significant distances to and from work. This adds to cost of living and reduces the amount of disposable income for households.
►Recruiting good paying jobs and planning for new retail centers in the county would allow more residents to work and shop closer to home.
►Population growth in some parts of the county, combined with commuting patterns have led to an increased demand for bicycle, pedestrian and transit facilities such as sidewalks,
greenways, bus service and park and ride facilities.
