Kirk, <br />Thank you for your time in reviewing this pr County, and strived to maintain 2the same level <br />configuration, as approved in 1998 by orange <br />of appearance in our proposed plans for expansion. We believe that our proposed site <br />renovations, although moderate in scale, will have a minimal impact to the existing <br />conditions of as found at this intersection. <br />We, working directly with the Credit Union, have tried to actively address any possible <br />that result from our plans as follows: <br />Landscaping: We are proposing, with input from the Planning staff, to add to the <br />appearance of both the existing building and new remote teller Office- <br />a. We are proposing large beds of evergreen screening along Old NC 86 <br />b. We are replacing all damaged landscape around the existing building, <br />restoring it to the original design intent, <br />c. We are proposing the replanting of the existing slope located between the <br />teller office and the main building. <br />d. We are preserving several large trees that are found on the new site. <br />e, We are continuing to preserve the large existing trees found in £rant of the <br />main building at the intersection of Old NC 86 and Oakdale Drive. <br />2, Parking: Additional parking is being provided to better serve this branch office at <br />peak hours. This parking is beneficial to the site because: <br />a. This will help recover drive aisles lost to parallel parking by members and <br />staff <br />b. Provide better emergency service access <br />c. Allow for the future cross connection to function more effectively due to a <br />better internal traffic circulation. <br />',ocumenl: D4ign Narration Nov12- 2003.doc <br />W_I UUt <br />-A J <br />
