Planned fommunity Development. Inc. <br />6qoo. Slade Hill Road 7 <br />Ralelo, HC 11615 <br />August 24, 1998 <br />Mr. Mike Venable <br />Assistant District Engineer <br />N. C. Dept. of Transportation <br />P. O. Box 766 <br />Graham, NC 27253-0766 <br />Dear Mike: <br />Thank you very much for the time you took on Tuesday, August 11, to review the <br />contents of Tommy Dyer's letter of August 3d to Emily Cameron of the Orange County <br />Planning Department regarding our Lawrence Park community. This letter is being <br />written in an effort to recap my understanding of the discussion and various conclusions <br />that were reached relative to these points. I will address them_ -as they appeared in the <br />August 3rd letter. <br />A 1 — We are in receipt of the standard turn lane design which you are requiring <br />for the U. S. 70A and Lawrence Road intersections with streets coming from the <br />Lawrence Park community. While we may well have the need for future discussion <br />about the specific design requirements, we do understand our obligation to provide for a <br />left and right turn lane at these intersections. <br />A 4 — The current plans did not include any roadway improvements at the <br />intersection of Lawrence Road and Old N. C. 10 because those improvements are not <br />being required as a part of our submittal. <br />A 6 — Site distance triangles as required by. NCDOT per the standards you <br />provided will be incorporated into our drawings at all intersections associated with the <br />project. It is our understanding that streets with curb/gutter sections do not require the <br />"flared" right-of-way at intersections. <br />A 7 — We clearly understand that access permits are required to make road <br />connections to any roadways in the NCDOT road system. Likewise, I would confirm our <br />understanding that improvements to eAsting roadways will be constructed -. <br />simultaneously to internal roadway development in conjunction with the specific* phases <br />in which the connections to the existing state road system will be made.
