Attachment 5 <br /> 32 <br /> SUMMIT <br /> lP 919.7323883 SUMMIT•ENGINEER.COM <br /> DESIGN AND ENGINEERING SERVICES 504 Meadowland Drive, Hillsborough,NC 27278 <br /> October 25, 2017 <br /> Mr. Michael D. Harvey, AICP, CFM, CZO <br /> Current Planning Supervisor <br /> Orange County Planning Department <br /> 131 West Margaret Lane <br /> Hillsborough, NC 27278 <br /> Re: Settler's Point - response to recommended conditions associated with our MPD-CZ application <br /> Dear Michael: <br /> Please accept this letter detailing our response to recommended conditions associated with the Setter's Point <br /> Master Planned Development Conditional Zoning (MPD-CZ) application request. <br /> we had no objections to the condition(s) as originally recommended by staff and presented to the Planning Board <br /> at its October 4, 2017 regular meeting. During the Planning Board meeting the Board and staff recommended <br /> modification of said condition(s) as follows: <br /> 1. Condition 4 (b) to be rewritten by adding the following language denoted in red underlined text: <br /> For development of structures, vehicular use areas, and roadways, a Transportation <br /> Impact Analysis (TIA) shall be completed in accordance with Section 6.17 of the <br /> UDO regardless of anticipated traffic counts for the development. <br /> APPLICANT COMMENT: We have no objection with the addition of highlighted language to the condition. <br /> 2. A new Condition 4 (f) reading as follows: <br /> Documentation indicating the Town of Hillsborough has reviewed a site plan <br /> application package and determined there is sufficient water and sewer capacity to <br /> serve the project. A lack of water and/or sewer capacity shall result in the denial of <br /> the site plan application by the County. <br /> APPLICANT COMMENT: We believe this recommended condition is consistent with existing agreements and <br /> requirements and have no objection with its imposition. <br /> 3. Condition 5 (f) reading as follows: <br /> The right-of-way and roadway for Service Road shall be extended West through <br /> District 1 to provide additional connectivity to adjacent parcels. <br /> Any extension of Service Road shall be constructed to NC Department of <br /> Transportation public road standards. <br /> APPLICANT COMMENT: We have an objection to this condition as recommended. <br /> We agree with the need of dedicating Right-of-way with the intention to provide connectivity to adjacent <br /> parcels, but not to be responsible to extend the roadway. We would like to note that the future roadway <br /> extension should be designed based in the trip generated by the adjacent future land use with <br /> consideration to the existing floodplain to the West of District 1. We request the BOCC rewrite the <br /> condition as follows: <br /> The right-of-way for Service Road shall be extended West through District 1 to <br /> provide future additional connectivity to adjacent parcels. <br />
