Approved 4 - 5 - 23 <br /> 331 community and I want to see the community do good . I am not here to just put something that will not serve the <br /> 332 community in it . The reason the property hasn 't been sold before is because of the restrictions that have been imposed <br /> 333 on it by the County . Dollar General was the only person that could meet all the requirements to purchase this property if <br /> 334 it' s approved . I would like to urge the Board to consider approval . I am an Orange County resident , have been and will <br /> 335 continue to be . I hope that you will consider this request and I will try to answer questions if you have any . <br /> 336 <br /> 337 Whitney Watson - I appreciate that you included the renderings of the lighting , but could you speak further about it being <br /> 338 dark sky compliant? <br /> 339 <br /> 340 Bob Hornik- I do know that the lighting is all downward shielded and is confined to the storefront area . I don ' t think there <br /> 341 are any free-standing light poles in the parking lot . <br /> 342 <br /> 343 Whitney Watson - My other question has to do with the location of the wells . I read in the packet that a permit has not yet <br /> 344 been applied for . I wondered if you could indicate on the plan , approximately where you are going to have someone start <br /> 345 looking for water. <br /> 346 <br /> 347 Adam Beeman - I think it' s on there . I believe it' s off to the side on the top left half corner of the building where the 54 <br /> 348 frontage is . <br /> 349 <br /> 350 Brent Purdum - ( Indicating a location on the map) ThatIs where we are proposing the well to go . Up there , close to the <br /> 351 corner where the woods are . So it would be behind the building , close to the 54 - buffer line . <br /> 352 <br /> 353 Beth Bronson - Can you speak to how many locations were tested before that was the one , they came up with ? <br /> 354 <br /> 355 Brent Purdum - We haven ' t done a well test . <br /> 356 <br /> 357 Beth Bronson - Okay , so no well tests have been done ? <br /> 358 <br /> 359 Brent Purdum - No , ma' am , we are just proposing it because we have to meet certain distances . <br /> 360 <br /> 361 Beth Bronson - If there is no well test, there is no alternative means to bring water out to that area , correct? <br /> 362 <br /> 363 Brent Purdum - As far as we know, correct . <br /> 364 <br /> 365 Adam Beeman - Do they do well tests here in Orange County? <br /> 366 <br /> 367 Beth Bronson . You have to test to be able to perc . <br /> 368 <br /> 369 Adam Beeman - Percing is different . . . <br /> 370 <br /> 371 Brent Purdum- That' s the septic system . <br /> 372 <br /> 373 Beth Bronson - I apologize , yes , sorry . <br /> 374 <br /> 375 Brent Purdum - We ' ve done the testing for the septic tank . We do have the perc test . That' s going to be between the <br /> 376 parking and the newly landscaped southern border. <br /> 377 <br /> 378 Beth Bronson - So that top left corner that you ' re speaking to is for the septic? <br /> 379 <br /> 380 Brent Purdum - No , that' s for the well . The well is on the north side , septic is on the south side . <br /> 381 <br /> 382 Randy Marshall - We keep talking about the rezoning , and we don ' t talk about what' s going in there , on the other hand , <br /> 383 half the questions are about what' s going in there . I ' m not even sure what' s appropriate to be questioned . <br /> 384 <br />
