66 <br /> Preliminary Plat Plan(Sheet 3) <br /> a. Dimension Roundabout detail and entry feature. Also, identify any proposed encroachments. <br /> Response: See Revised Sheet 3: Preliminary Plat. <br /> b. Include zoning, uses and PINs on all adjacent properties. Response: We have added a general <br /> note on Sheet 1: Title sheet, General Note 4 and on Sheets 3: Preliminary Plat and Sheet 5: <br /> Preliminary Lot Exhibit that "all adjacent properties are residential uses, zoned Rural Buffer <br /> (RB)." We have added the PINS along with N/F Owners on Sheet 3: Preliminary Plat and Sheet <br /> 5: Preliminary Lot Exhibit. <br /> c. Dimension stream buffer from the flood plain. Response: Noted and revised. <br /> d. Per UDO 7.13.2 Identify and quantify Open Space Primary and Secondary area (e.g. size and <br /> type and applicable features within the area). Your 'Legend' does not provide a distinction <br /> between 'Primary' and 'Secondary'. Use a different label feature for both and I think the <br /> confusion is eliminated. Response: Noted and revised. <br /> e. Recalculate/refine Recreation table, requirements and areas to Meet UDO Section 7.11. <br /> Specifically, recalculate to include portions of site that fall under UDO Section 7.11.2(A) (1/20 <br /> per acre for steep slopes and Flood Hazard Areas - step slopes being over 15%). Response: This <br /> table has been revised. See revised plans. <br /> f. Cleary definite active and passive areas proposed to meet recreation requirements. We also need <br /> a more definitive explanation on what rec is to be provided(i.e.narrative and/or notes explaining <br /> how you meet Recreation Facilities Suitability outlined UDO Section 7.11.3(A-E). ). You <br /> should also add language indicating you are going to do some form of payment in lieu rather <br /> than create/develop major recreation facilities. We are under the opinion you are providing the <br /> gazebo and garden as 'private amenities' and not dedicated rec space. If we are correct then there <br /> will obviously be a payment in lieu with the denoted amenities being reserved for private use <br /> (i.e. by triple crown farms residents only). Response: We are proposing a 50' Pedestrian Access <br /> as shown that leads to natural area trails in the wooded areas along the creek. Trails as proposed <br /> are 6' natural trails. The proposed recreational area around the roundabout may have a gazebo <br /> and public picnic area for passive recreational use. As all proposed recreational space is private, <br /> a payment in lieu of$455 per lot shall be made to the Chapel Hill Park District 8. A note to this <br /> effect has been added to the Title Sheet 1 under General Notes. The Recreational Areas are <br /> defined as Secondary Open Space,Passive Recreational Areas. <br /> g. Provide typical setbacks for each lot (e.g. cul-de-sac typical, corner lot typical, normal lot <br /> typical) in a note. Response: Noted. Typical setbacks are shown in a typical detail on Sheet 5: <br /> Preliminary Lot Exhibit. <br /> h. Provide a description and/or planting plan for major areas and the 30' wide roadside buffer. <br /> Response: A note has been added to Sheet 1: Title Sheet under General Notes, Note 3 <br /> regarding the existing roadside buffer to remain, provided it is determined to meet the existing <br /> ordinance. Please see revised Title Sheet. <br />
