88 <br /> Pat Mallett reminded the Board the property was located within the Lower Eno Protected Watershed Protection <br /> Overlay district. Project disturbing more than 20,000 square feet of land area are required to submit and receive <br /> approval of an erosion control plan. Projects disturbing more than 21,780 square feet of land area are required to <br /> submit and receive approval of a stormwater plan. Fairway Hills will require both erosion control and stormwater <br /> permit review and approval. The Concept Plan denotes the location of anticipated stormwater facilities. Mr. Mallet <br /> reminded the Board erosion control and stormwater plans would be submitted prior to the commencement of land <br /> disturbing activity assuming the project was, ultimately, approved. <br /> Tim Smith indicated the project involved centrally located stormwater facilities. These stormwater control measures <br /> would address the overall development of the project. Development on individual parcels may also require the <br /> property owner to develop appropriate stormwater control measures as well. <br /> There was general discussion. <br /> Lydia Wegman asked if there were any comments or questions from the public. <br /> Linda Nathansen expressed concerns on multiple issues regarding the development and request that there be testing <br /> of the wells done for the neighbors that could potentially be negatively impacted so that if in the future there is a <br /> problem the property owners have proof that it was not a problem before the development. She requested that no <br /> use of round-up or similar pesticides be allowed to be used and expressed concerns about run off and stormwater <br /> issues. She requested that the use of Low Impact Design (LID)stormwater management be considered and handed <br /> out a paper that compared the system to traditional systems. She related that there was an underground tank on the <br /> property and that there was the potential of contamination from it to the adjacent properties. <br /> Michael Harvey reminded the Board that the County has some of the most restrictive stormwater regulation in the <br /> area. Developers were required to address both water quantity, specifically how much water was leaving the site, <br /> and water quality, specifically the removal of nutrients from the project. This project would also have to abide what is <br /> known as pre and post stormwater runoff conditions. What this means is that under current conditions if there was <br /> approximately 1 inch of water running off the property in its pre-development state,there can be no more than 1 inch <br /> of runoff generated by the property in its developed state. Mr. Harvey further reminded the Board they could not <br /> compel or require the applicant to adhere to a specific stormwater design standard. That would be addressed during <br /> the stormwater permitting stage based on applicable County and State regulations. While he appreciated Ms. <br /> Nathansen's suggestion that the project use low impact design principles,there was no guarantee the project would <br /> qualify for same. <br /> Michael Harvey reminded the Board that is surrounding wells were already experiencing issues, it would be prudent <br /> for those property owners to contact Orange County Environmental Health to ascertain if the wells need to be re- <br /> drilled. Testing of wells to try and establish a baseline of existing issues, in the hopes of holding property owners <br /> within Fairway Hills accountable for potential impacts,was not practical. The assumption that future problems will be <br /> the direct impact of this project represented a false premise as development/redevelopment of surrounding lots could <br /> also lead to the problems Ms. Nathansen was concerned about. <br /> Craig Carter expressed concern on the well water table and contamination. He related that several properties had <br /> contaminated wells and had to have then drilled deeper and that there had been 3 gas stations there in the past. <br /> Mark O'Neal of Pickett-Sprouse addressed the concern and advised that the tank had been for heating oil and had <br /> been removed,the soil around it was also removed and the remaining soil has been tested and cleared by an expert. <br /> There was additional, general, discussion on contamination issues. <br />
