1: 2 1 W. �' V09 ILI 110 "W.11310 -9. ,1 o <br />contamination are required. <br />M. ISSUES <br />A. Orange County requested a classification of WS II. Person County and the City or <br />Roxboro requested WS IV. Durham County requested a classification of WS II request. <br />DEM is recommending Class H. <br />B. There are no zoning controls in Little River Township. Extension of zoning standards to <br />Little River would provide a mechanism by which to apply the mandated standards. <br />C. The minimum lot size would increase from .92 acres to 2.0 acres throughout the <br />watershed. A new or revised zoning district and/or zoning overlay would have to be <br />created to specify the new standards. <br />D. Impervious surfaces would include gravel roads, drives, etc. This change could create <br />a problem during in developing existing lots, particularly if they are non - conforming in <br />size, and/or are shaped such that a long driveway is required. <br />E. The minimum stream buffer would be increased from 50' to 100'. This could have a <br />substantial impact on existing lots that have limited buildable area. <br />F. Operation and maintenance of detention ponds or other engineered stormwater controls <br />will require oversight by the County. This will require development and implementation <br />of a monitoring program by the Erosion Control Division and /or County Engineer. <br />G. A significant difference of opinion appears to exist between the involved jurisdictions. <br />This type of dispute may be a focal point of the planned public hearings, and <br />intesjurisdictional meetings may be prudent to help resolve the policy issues. <br />21 <br />
