2 1 2 B. PUBLIC HEARING ITEMS 3 4 1. Class A Special Use Permit - To review an application for a Class A Special 5 Use Permit for a proposed 26 lot single-family residential Major Subdivision 6 on a 68.51 acre parcel of property off of Mt. Sinai Road (SR 1718). 7 Michael Harvey: I will remind the Board that you are dealing with a Class A Special Use 8 Permit, which by definition is a quasi-judicial hearing. If you are speaking either for or against 9 the application —that includes the applicant and the applicant's engineer and staff—you need to 10 be sworn. Mr. Chairman, if you will swear in all interested parties in for this hearing. 11 Larry Wright: All parties approach the bench, and while they're doing so, I'd like to inform 12 everyone that additional testimony can be accepted in written format to the Planning 13 Department to be submitted prior to the Planning Board meeting. It will be part of the Planning 14 Board deliberations, and this will offer the opportunity for the Board of County Commissioners to 15 have material where they can consider this in their deliberations thereafter. 16 All interested parties were sworn in at this time. 17 Michael Harvey: You have a rather lengthy agenda item here this evening, and I'm going to try 18 to go through it as methodically and as quickly as possible and allow the applicant and citizens 19 the opportunity to speak. As the Chair has already articulated, we have a major single-family 20 residential subdivision of 26 lots being proposed on a parcel of property off of Mt. Sinai Road. 21 We have two additional pieces of information concerning this project, which I'd like to call your 22 attention to. The first item is a printout of a PowerPoint presentation so that the Board members 23 can follow along. The second is a salmon-colored piece of paper, which contains 24 correspondence from Orange County's DEAPR department as well as State review documents. 25 We also have an email sent by Mr. David Sykes of Orange County Emergency Services on 26 Thursday, August 16th for your consideration on this item. Unfortunately, this information was 27 received after we had distributed the packets so we were not able to include it. 28 Attachment 1 is the application packet, and very briefly, I just want to run down what that entails. 29 The application packet begins on page 11 with a detailed narrative statement from the applicant 30 demonstrating compliance from their standpoint with the various provisions of County code and 31 the Comprehensive Plan with respect to this project. 32 Page 27 provides pictures of existing structures on the property. Page 28 is the Soil Service 33 report for this property. Page 60 is a Surface Water ldentification completed by Orange County 34 Erosion Control with respect to the streams that are located on this property. Page 64 is a 35 Water Utility Agreement concerning the proposed community well. Page 81 is the adjacent 36 property owner list. Page 83 contains letters submitted to the applicant from the State 37 Department of Cultural Resources concerning this project. Page 87 is the Agreement of 38 Purchase and Sale of this property. Page 89 is the proposed draft Declaration of Covenants, 39 Conditions, and Restrictions for this property. Page 129 begins a property information data 40 sheet submitted by the applicant's expert in an attempt to demonstrate compliance with various 41 provisions of the Unified Development Ordinance, specifically that this project will maintain or 42 enhance the value of adjacent property. Page 133, you will note there are sample elevations of 43 the houses proposed for this project. On page 144 you have some additional maps showing 44 environmental features.
