Chatham Park is already setting the example in environmental sensitivity with its use of reclaimed water treatment systems, LEED certified buildings, wider riparian buffers, honeybee colony, a solar farm, LID storm water treatments, water conservation, and energy conservation. Chatham Park has partnered with Southern Energy to create an EcoSelect Plus program for all new homes which increases HERS (Home Energy Rating System) ratings and overall healthier households.

Honeybees pollinate up to a 5-mile radius from their hive and thus, benefit all types of plants from farmers crops to trees and the flower boxes on front porches. Our master beekeeper Jody Moore says, honeybees don’t know where Chatham Park boundaries are, so they benefit all of Pittsboro, NC.

Sustainability is a top priority in Chatham Park. Electric charging stations are an initiative to help reduce carbon footprint. Charging stations are installed at MOSAIC and Vineyards. All houses are prewired for an easy charging station installation.

The PDD allows for predictable decision making throughout the development life of the project and provides multiple opportunities for a long-term partnership between Chatham Park and the Town of Pittsboro.
