We have. reviewed the existing <br />configuration, as approved in 1998 by Orange County, and stzived to maintain the same level <br />of appearance in our proposed plans for expansion. We believe that our proposed site <br />. renovations, although moderate in scale, will have a xzainimal impact to the existing <br />conditions of as found at this intersection: <br />We, working directly with the Credit Union, have tried to actively address any possible <br />: ~.~w~ n s that result from our plans aS follows: <br />1. Landscaping: We are proposing, with input from the Planning staff to add to the <br />appearance of both the existing building and new remote teller office. <br />a. We are proposing large beds of evergreen screening along Clld NC 86. <br />b. We are replacing all damaged landscape around the existing building, <br />restoring it to the original design intent. <br />c. We are proposing tl}e replanting of the existing slope !orated between the <br />teller office and the main building. <br />d. We are preserving several large trees that are found on the new site. <br />e. We are continuing to preserve the large existing trees found in front of the <br />main building at the intersection of Old NC 86 and Oakdale Drive. <br />2. Parking= Additional pazlcing is being provided to better serve this branch office at <br />peak hours. This parking is beneficial to the site because: <br />a. This will help recover drive aisles lost to parallel parking by members and <br />staff. <br />b. Provide better emergency service access <br />c. Allow for the future cross connection to function more effectively due to a <br />better internal traffic circulation. <br />OBRIEN/ATAINS <br />Post Office Sax 12037 Durf-am 919!941-9D00 <br />Research Trfar~gle Park, NC 27709 l2alalgh a181755-10.2 <br />Chapel HiN 919!968-4571 <br />ocumsnt: D~igr- t~[drrdtidn 1Vov12 2003.doc <br />
