Comment: Page 1 —Approximately 20 acres of the parcel, north of Interstate 40, is not <br /> part of the application and will remain zoned as currently depicted on the official <br /> County Zoning Atlas. <br /> Response: Correct, no area north of 1-40 is part of the rezoning. <br /> 2. Comment: Page 2— I.A.1 —The narrative and exhibits make reference to stormwater <br /> `best management practices' or BMPs for the Project. Please update such references <br /> to `stormwater control measures' or SCMs per current State and County guidelines. <br /> Response: All occurrences of BMPs have been updated to SCMs as requested. <br /> 3. Comment: Page 2— I.A.2 -There are no references in the narrative to proposed parking <br /> standards (i.e. required number of spaces per sq.ft. of proposed land use, loading <br /> space design requirements, shared parking, compact parking standards, drive-isle <br /> standards, etc.) for the Project. <br /> Please modify the narrative to either indicate the Project will comply with the <br /> provisions of Section 6.9 Parking, Loading, and Circulation of the UDO or propose a <br /> comparable parking standard for consideration. <br /> Response: The parking standards to be used are as follows:Minimum Vehicular Parking <br /> Requirements: 1 space per 750s.f. of office space + 1 space per 3,000s.f. of additional indoor <br /> area and have been noted in the binder. <br /> 4. Comment: Page 2— I.A.2.i -A condition of approval for the Settlers Point MPD-CZ <br /> project indicated at minimum of 1% of all required parking be designed to <br /> accommodate electrical charging stations. Staff believes there will be similar interest <br /> for the Project. <br /> Response: There is no plan to make electric parking a requirement of this project at this <br /> time. <br /> 5. Comment: Page 3— I.A.2.ii—A condition of approval for the Settlers Point MPD-CZ <br /> project required the creation/designation of 100 parking spaces to serve as supporting <br /> `park and ride' activities. While the nature of this project is different from Settlers <br /> Point, staff believes there will be discussion at both the Planning Board and County <br /> Commissioner level on requiring a similar condition. <br /> Response: Due to the nature of this project, there will be no park and ride facilities provided. <br />
