Lighting a. All site lighting (parking and athletic field) will be designed and operated in accordance with Orange County, North Carolina Unified Development Ordinance Section 6.11. Outdoor lighting on site will provide enough lite to illuminate the site for safety of the intended use and security purposes, but not to exceed 0.1-foot candles across any property lines on site. STAFF COMMENT: On a general note the submittal does not contain a formal outdoor lighting plan as required under Section 6.11 of the UDO.

STAFF COMMENT: Staff is not supportive of the condition as currently written and recommends the following: For public safety as required in 5.3.2(B)(2) of the UDO, the Orange County Fire Marshal shall review and approve the final site plan, including
