Orange County NC Website
180 <br /> DRAFT <br /> 660 Beth Bronson: I fully support the public nature of it, I just don't know, is that based on how many members,semi-public <br /> 661 members there will be at the recreational fields through HYAA specifically? <br /> 662 <br /> 663 Jim Parker: It was based on the acreage of the recreational space and the tennis facility was calculated separately <br /> 664 based on other data. Going back to your original question, it is difficult to ascertain where all the different students will be <br /> 665 coming from but the good thing about this site and how it is designed, students can come from all different directions. It's <br /> 666 not all just coming in on one road at one time.There are multiple ways to get into the site, so when you take the 4,000 <br /> 667 trips per day that we estimated,that didn't take into consideration traffic.We are going to have 30-50% bussing, then <br /> 668 those volumes are conservative and so when you take 4,000 and divide by 4 it is 1,000 in each direction so those loads <br /> 669 are not that severe. I understand the neighbor's concerns and we are trying to do the best we can with the site. <br /> 670 <br /> 671 Beth Bronson:At the same time I don't understand how conditionally we could make you, as the applicant responsible <br /> 672 for something that already needed to be, in the public's view, already needed to be addressed but I do believe that the <br /> 673 safety of adding school children into the mix and creating that type of traffic is paramount. <br /> 674 <br /> 675 Lyle Overcash: We appreciate that point,that is why we wanted to step forward with the turn lanes at US70 and <br /> 676 Lawrence Rd.That was based on conversation with DOT and it's near the ... at the back end of your staff package page <br /> 677 377 or 378. Highlights that intersection as a recommended. <br /> 678 <br /> 679 Beth Bronson:Would you be interested in. Not would you be interested in. The condition of revisiting this traffic impact <br /> 680 given the recreational field as well as the school matriculation of the school being full capacity in three years I believe? <br /> 681 <br /> 682 Patrick Byker: No at least four. <br /> 683 <br /> 684 Beth Bronson: Four years. Okay, so at five years you would be considered to be at full capacity for just the high school, <br /> 685 or the high school and the lower school? <br /> 686 <br /> 687 Patrick Byker: I'm not sure ... of the lower school is, that's to be determined. <br /> 688 <br /> 689 Beth Bronson: So,the lower school is not considered in any of this. <br /> 690 <br /> 691 Patrick Byker:Yes, it's factored in the traffic. <br /> 692 <br /> 693 Beth Bronson: OK so something in like five revisiting this issue, revisiting with the traffic impact analysis might be <br /> 694 something that might be proven for preparing opening a lower school?As it..to the planning director, if there's a <br /> 695 mechanism that you can do that, I am not aware of...As the conditional district, yeah? <br /> 696 <br /> 697 Patrick Byker: I'd have to talk about that with the planning director.Though I think we're certainly willing to evaluate <br /> 698 where things are, say if the property moved along, keep it lined up as is stated.We may have increased buses by that <br /> 699 time as well, above and beyond is how its projected. Thank you. <br /> 700 <br /> 701 Statler Gilfillen: Could you mitigate how the individuals through the audience erase the question about the wells?Yes, <br /> 702 the developer,we've been talking about if Hillsborough will or will not be providing service. Under state law, I believe, its <br /> 703 recommended, you can't get a boating permit, you can't reach the environmental districts.You can't start to build, so <br /> 704 whatever you architect designs won't matter. However, if you put in wells on this site, and three years goes by and all the <br /> 705 sudden, half of those ... neighbors and all the wells dry up,what protections do they have? <br /> 706 <br /> 707 Patrick Byker: That's a good question to have. It is hypotheticals, but here's the point, there are certainly time honor case <br /> 708 to do so,where if there is something that happens where your use of your property detrimentally affects another one, <br /> 709 they have a cause of action in Orange County court.As I said that, I think it's important to recognize that we are talking <br /> 710 about a 90-acre, so my understanding is there would not be,correct me if I'm wrong, 90-acre lots single family homes <br /> 711 there without having to pursue this reclaiming order and if those are all with wells that would consume just using <br /> 712 presidential averages 35,000 gallons a day from the----zone.That's there without any public hearing. Our usage would <br /> 713 be a fraction of that, somewhere between a quarter and a third at most.And so, if you look at these as the concerns, <br />
