He said Davis Road is at 720 grade, and the building will be at a lower grade <br /> 19 than Davis Road, thus hiding a portion of the building. <br /> 20 Commission Price asked if the buffer between Davis Road and the interior roads would <br /> 21 be 80 feet. <br /> 22 Michael Harvey said yes. <br /> 23 Commissioner Greene asked if the start of the buffer line could be identified. <br /> 24 Michael Harvey indicated such on the map, at the Davis Road right of way. <br /> 25 Commissioner Price said the buffer is really not even 60 from the right of way. She said <br /> 26 the right of way trees/vegetation may not remain. <br /> 27 Michael Harvey said if the trees are in the right of way, they are not subject to the <br /> 28 conditions. He said the trees can be removed by the NC Department of Transportation <br /> 29 (NCDOT), as necessary. He said the buffer and the setback are measured from the edge of the <br /> 30 right of way. <br /> 31 Commissioner Price said the 100-foot buffer will not be imposed along Davis Road. <br /> 32 Michael Harvey said the Applicant has asked that access roads be allowed along Davis <br /> 33 Road. He said staff has agreed to access roads, but not parking. <br /> 34 Commissioner Price asked if there is a reason staff agreed to this request, when the <br /> 35 Unified Development Ordinance (UDO) requires 100 feet. <br /> 36 Michael Harvey said the existing grade will cause the visibility of the building to be <br /> 37 greatly reduced, thus making the traditional 100-foot buffer not as necessary. <br /> 38 Craig Benedict, Planning Director, said the building set back is 120 feet instead of 100. <br /> 39 Commissioner Marcoplos asked if this grading is consistent along all of Davis Road. <br /> 40 Michael Harvey said yes, and the Applicant has voluntarily agreed to hold itself to this <br /> 41 condition. <br /> 42 Commissioner Marcoplos referred to page 3, and a drawing with 100-foot perimeter land <br /> 43 use buffer and building vehicle set back, and said this is where the most southern parcel is <br /> 44 connected to the larger parcel. <br /> 45 Michael Harvey said this is an attempt to show the Applicant's requested reduction of a <br /> 46 buffer along the southern property line to accommodate road access. He said this is where the <br /> 47 existing floodplain narrows, and there would be less impact in putting a roadway in this portion <br /> 48 of the property than it would to observe a 100-foot perimeter buffer. He said staff agreed, as it <br /> 49 would help preserve the integrity of the floodplain to allow a small reduction in the buffer. He <br />
