010 <br />Orange County Board of Commissioners <br />September 28, 1998 <br />Page 4 <br />Access and Roadways <br />Two primary and one secondary access points to the site are proposed. One pri- <br />mary entrance is located on Lawrence Road (Phase I); the 'second is located on <br />Business US 70 (Phase II). At each of these entrances protected left turn lanes <br />meeting NCDOT standards will be constructed along with safe bus turnout lanes <br />for future use by public & school buses. The secondary access point is in Phase III <br />and would connect the site with the existing right -of -way of Lori Drive on the <br />southern side of the site. <br />All roads within the site are proposed to be public, designed and built to NCDOT <br />standards, and dedicated to NCDOT upon completion of the required number of <br />lots per road length. <br />The design for internal collector streets is 35 feet in width with curb and gutter. <br />The remaining internal streets are-27 feet wide with curb and gutter.

The remaining 111 lots will share a <br />common rear property line with a neighboring lot, much in the small town tradi- <br />tion. <br />Seven different home styles, most with garages, will be offered in Lawrence Park. <br />The range of size will be between 1,200 square feet and 1,750 square feet.
