Attachment 10 2 3 Excerpt of January 14 Planning Board Minutes families. These are small starter houses, so it's young families with children. Any development that does go into this corridor type of arrangement, any lighting is going to shine into second story windows, all of that sort of thing, so we respectfully ask you to keep that in mind as you make your plans, thank you. Samantha Cabe: I have one question for you, I think Michael Harvey touched on this, but since that is now an acknowledged tributary, the stream buffers do apply so they would have to build out from that stream? Robert Davis: Right, you have along the flood plain; depending on the slope, 7% % or less, in this area it's 65 ft., if it's over 7'/2% it would be 80 ft., in addition on the outside edge of the floodplain or on this particular one where there's no floodplain it would be measured at the top of the bank. This one looks like it's over 7 '/ % the one that runs along the back. In either zone you have to control your storm water runoff to the predevelopment rate which right now, all of this is undeveloped there's a little house here. That is as you can see 12.68 acres you probably only have maybe an acre, less than acre, not even that much impervious surface on that parcel right now. Larry Wright: How is that pre-runoff, how is that measured before and after? Robert Davis: Generally you take a runoff co efficient of the existing land use and most of this is meadow, and there are some trees in the back. There are accepted practices of what is a reasonable runoff depending upon the use. Trees have~one, meadows, fields, parking lots have others. So, they would take that calculation what it is now, and most of it being undeveloped, it's a fairly low runoff right now. That's one of the benefits of it being undeveloped is you have a low base from which to control your n~noff. Jay Bryan: Robert, how long have these two tracts been zoned Economic Development Limited Office 1? Robert Davis: April 17, 2001 is when this district was put in place. Prior to that it was just regular Economic Development District zoning. Jay Bryan: The primary difference between these two zones, is it not true, is that one requires a special use permit class A, the one that exists there, is that true? Robert Davis: No, in this case right here, because it's within 200 ft. of a residential district that's a provision that was placed in the ED-LO-1 when adjoining recorded neighborhoods. That was put in there not so much for this nekJhborhood but for Beckett's Ridge when it came through the original rezoning. Because what you did have in the original EDD were primary and secondary development standards. They did not have to worry about, with it being a secondary area which allowed residential they didn't have to worry about it, then we took residential out of the ED-LO-1 so the neighborhood was concerned that there would not be any protection for the neighborhood when we removed that primary and secondary designation and went to the individual district: So that's why that provision was put in there that if you're within 200 ft. of a residential subdivision area it needs to have a SUP for their protection. You don't have that requirement in the ED-LNR but the buildings are limited to 5000 sq. ft. , Jay Bryan: Nevertheless, in tract 2 and in tract 1 as they're currently zoned there's the SUP that would apply to those tracts, is that correct? Robert Davis: Potentially, if they're within 200 ft. Samantha Cabe: I think the other big distinction I got from your presentation was the 100 ft. buffer really prevents anything from being built on these currently under their current zoning. At least the lower tract. Robert Davis: Actually, there are 3 lots and 100 ft. takes all but 20 ft. along the western line of tract 1, the lower one, those lots get hit pretty hard.
