~-5 Renee Price-Saunders: Will this be a gated community? Jack Srnyre: No. Jay Bryan: Isn't there a proposed greenway in the area? Eddie Kirk: The County owns some greenway already, and this dedication will extend it. Brian Dobyns: The baseline documentation from the Triangle Land Conservancy shows a trail currently exists from Neville Road, and the character of that trail, is that it is not a public trail. It is in people's back yards, and there isn't any place along Neville Road that promotes access or use. The Triangle Land Conservancy feels that this is a easement designed to protect natural areas and floodplains, and not for public use. Renee Price-Saunders: What about the soils on Lots 1, 2, and 15? They are near the streams. Have you already reviewed these locations? Jack Smyre: The County has already done the testing for septic areas outside of the stream buffers, Jeff Schmitt: Why is the Staff proposing E-3? Eddie Kirk: It is to present an access to the dedicated azea. Jeff Schmitt: Haw does that fit with Brian's comments? It seems apparent that there with the access off Neville Road, there is currently access. Sam Lasris: I seem to recall a discussion about an alternate route out of the subdivision, Brian Dobyns: I believe we were looking at an access between lots 7 and 8, but there was nothing between 9, 10 and 11 in the original concept plan, and we were suggesting something to the west. Now that has been pravided,,just in a different location. Eddie Kirk: The Health Department provided information in helping to determine these Pedestrian Open Space Areas. Jeff Schmitt: Where could citizens get access to the trail today? Neville Road? Brian Dobyns: People can use the trail, but there is no parking, There is no goal to make this a public trail system, Renee Price-Saunders: What would prevent someone from pazking on Westhampton Way to use the trail? Jack Smyre: It could be done, but it would be considered private property 2
