138 <br />Attachment 5 <br />Question: Would the athletic fields continue to be rented out for use by outside <br />entities? Answer., Yes but primarily during summer months and on weekends as the <br />current use policy dictates. A representative of Carolina Friends School did indicate <br />that if neighbors had recurring issues with the use of the fields in the future, then the <br />school could re- evaluate its current policy of renting them out. It was further stated that <br />the school had no intention of installing or using a public address (PA) system for <br />athletic events. <br />Question: Where would parking for the new performing arts center be? Answer. • Mr. <br />Whitaker indicated that parking for the new facility would be in existing lots and that <br />visitors would make there way to the building through existing footpaths. Mr. Whitaker <br />indicated that this was a conscious decision by the applicant to avoid the need for new <br />parking facilities near identified stream buffers. <br />Question: What will the second driveway off of Mt Sinai be composed of? <br />Answer. • Gravel. Mr. Whitaker explained that the original intent of the driveway was <br />only as a construction entrance but that the School determined additional access would <br />be beneficial for ensuring access for emergency vehicles. Mr. Whitaker reminded all <br />present that the site plan denoted the presence of a security gate restricting access <br />during non - school hours. During ballgames or events at the performing arts center, the <br />gate would be left open to allow for access. <br />Mr. Whitaker reminded all parties that NC DOT would have to review and approve a <br />driveway cut for the roadway before it was developed. <br />With no further questions, the meeting was adjourned. <br />
