Buildinglfrade contractor offices with external equipment <br /> storage yards; <br /> ii. Pawnshop/payday loan services; <br /> e. Automotive/Transportation Uses is expressly limited specifically Motor <br /> Vehicle Service Station (i.e. gas station) and Bus/rail Passenger <br /> Shelters land uses: <br /> f. Service Uses limited specifically to Eating and Drinking <br /> Establishments and Short Term Rental — Non-host Occupied land <br /> uses; <br /> This list is consistent with existing LIDO language and simplifies what will and will not be <br /> permitted within the Project. <br /> Response: The Narrative has been revised to include a detailed list of prohibited land <br /> use categories similar to the sample list provided above. Refer to Section 24.13 of the <br /> Narrative for details. <br /> a. The narrative should be revised to include additional detail(s) on proposed development <br /> activities, namely: <br /> i. A description/identification of each individual development area or pod'within the Project <br /> (i.e. acreage of development area, intended access, allowable floor area, etc.); <br /> ii. Anticipated number of buildings and their size; <br /> iii. An explanation on the anticipated number of parking spaces; <br /> iv. An explanation of loading berths/zones for each area or`pod; <br /> This information should also be placed on the Master Concept Plan as well(Sheet C 2.0 and/or <br /> C2.1). <br /> Response: The Narrative has been revised to provide additional details on the proposed <br /> development to the greatest extent possible. Refer to Section 2-4.0 of the Narrative for <br /> and Sheet C2.0 of the Rezoning Plan for details. <br /> K. PERFORMANCE STANDARDS: <br /> i. IN GENERAL: The Narrative needs to contain a summary of the findings of the Environmental <br /> Assessment (Exhibit F) as you begin the discussion of the Project's 'performance standards'. <br /> Specifically, an analysis of the information demonstrating compliance with applicable standards <br /> (i.e. Section 6.16.3(B) of the LIDO)which will be vital in documenting your rationale for arguing <br /> an Environmental Impact Statement, as detailed in Section 6.16.4 of the UDO, is not required <br /> for the Project. <br /> Response: A summary of the findings of the Environmental Assessment are now <br /> included within the Narrative. Refer to Section 1-5 of the Narrative for details. <br /> ii. Floor Area Ratio(FAR): the Narrative indicates the Project will observe a FAR of 0.65 or 28,314 <br /> sq.ft. of building floor area per acre of property. If we presume single-story building(s) for the <br /> Project, this would translate to a maximum of 2,944,656 sq.ft. of building area (67 acres). Staff <br /> realizes we will not be dealing with single-story structures throughout the project, but is <br /> concerned this proposed FAR is inconsistent with the Transportation Impact Analysis (TIA) <br /> submitted for this project, which estimates traffic generated for approximately 500,000 sq.ft. of <br /> building area/land uses (Exhibit F). The FAR either needs to be: <br /> • Modified to be consistent with the building square footage utilized in the development of <br /> the TIA, <br /> 00 Morris Street, 00 Durham, NC 27701 • .: <br />
