Agency Comments: Comments attached from Town of Hillsborough, Sheriffs Office, Emergency Management, and NCDOT. Zoning. Consistency: The proposed expansion plan does not meet three of the performance standards of the ED- LNRzoning district. However, the ordinance allows the Board of Commissioners to deviate from these standards through the Planned Development process if it (BOCC) determines that a public benefit or purpose is being met. • The maximum floor area limit in the Linear Office District is 5,000 square feet for each. 20,000 square foot zoning lot. - This proposal will be on 3.25 acres or 141,570 square feet.. The total constructed square footage proposed is substantially less than that which would be allowed with. eight separate 20,000 square foot lots [i.e. 40,000 square feet]. This proposal is to expand the existing building to 7,334 square feet total with a new remote teller station of 634 square feet and arelocated -new canopy of 2,000 square feet. The total construction will be 9,968 or less than one-fourth of what would be allowed in the district using minimum sized zoning lots. If the 1.37 acres were subdivided and developed separately as two zoning lots, each lot could allow up to 5,000 square feet each. Additional office space to accommodate walk in traffic is a part of this. proposal., • The Hillsborough Area EDD has a prohibition against drive-through facilities. - The existing facility has four drive-through lanes, including the ATM lane. The request is to relocate these lanes and add- one extra drive through lane. The additional lane has the potential to reduce emissions by shortening the wait time of individuals performing transactions. The Credit Union- is promoting use of on line banking which also may reduce the number of trips. • The maximum building height is 30 feet. - The existing building is 35 feet in height. The additions are less than 30 feet in height. The following conditions were placed on the State Employees Credit Union when the Special Use Permit was originally approved on April 21, 1998.
