MTC buffer is required along this frontage <br />• The entire MTC buffer within District 1 shall remain undisturbed <br />District 2 <br />• Approximately 3,082 linear ft. of 1 -40 Interstate frontage <br />• A 100 -ft. MTC buffer is required along this frontage <br />• The southern portion of this 100 -ft. buffer (approx. 1,082 linear ft.) shall remain <br />entirely undisturbed <br />• The remaining portion of the MTC buffer to the north shall meet the provisions of <br />Section 6.6.4 (A) of the LIDO according to the following description and Exhibit: <br />District 2 <br />• Per the allowances of the ordinance under Section 6.6.4 (A), up to 50% of this <br />buffer length can be cleared. The total area of the buffer is 308,200 sq. ft., so <br />this amounts to an allowable area of clearing of 154,100 sq. ft. <br />• Approximately 2,000 linear ft. of the buffer from the 1 -40 on -ramp at Old NC Hwy <br />86 will be reduced to 50 ft. in width for development of necessary infrastructure, <br />internal roadways, stormwater management features, etc. in support of the <br />project. This amounts to 100,000 sq. ft. <br />• The remaining 54,100 sq. ft. of allowable area to be cleared will be by means of <br />breaks within the previously mentioned 50 -wide buffer. While not required, these <br />breaks will be re- vegetated with low growth landscaping according to Condition <br />13 of the rezoning petition <br />District 2 MTC Buffer Exhibit <br />Existing MTC Buffer Conditions <br />Existinq MTC Buffer Pic -1 <br />Existing MTC Buffer Pic -2 <br />Existing MTC Buffer Pic -3 <br />
