6 <br /> 1 Lawrence Road and all adjoining residential properties. These are 30-foot buffers, as I mentioned before,to preserve the <br /> 2 existing wooded vegetation and to be supplemented by a Type C buffer where that screening is insufficient. 40-foot buffers <br /> 3 will be provided everywhere else that is not included in the previous section that can be found in UDO Section 5.2.2. For <br /> 4 parking which is regulated in Section 6.9.7,we provide ten spaces per athletic field with additional parking for overflow and <br /> 5 to get vehicles off of streets. We've also submitted a lighting plan which is regulated in Section 6.11.7(A)which ensures <br /> 6 that all outdoor areas and parking lot lighting fixtures, other than floodlights and flood lamps used within the facility shall be <br /> 7 cut off fixtures, all mounting heights for outdoor lighting except for the field lighting,will not exceed 36 feet above the <br /> 8 finished grade, and any light fixtures placed in such a manner that no lamp surface is visible from any residential area, <br /> 9 public or private street. Furthermore, as per LIDO Section 6.11.7(C), because this project is located in an urbanizing area <br /> 10 of the county, the hours of operation for the lighting system for any game or event shall be no later than 11:00 p.m. except <br /> 11 to conclude a scheduled event that was in progress before 11:00 p.m. and circumstances prevented it ending before that <br /> 12 time. And all of that lighting will meet the requirements of the lighting section. For signs, Section 6.12.13(G)(3),there shall <br /> 13 be one freestanding identification sign for each property. It will be 20 square feet in total sign area. The sign will either be <br /> 14 ground or pole mounted. It will be set back 10 feet from any property line. The illuminations will follow the LIDO regulations <br /> 15 and all signs will conform to the additional requirements in the sign section. Private streets, particularly related to the <br /> 16 stream crossing. Stream crossing is also in a 65-foot buffer, per Orange County's regulations. This is to preserve the <br /> 17 natural wooded around there to reduce runoff and protect against erosion and to help maintain the integrity of the stream <br /> 18 that will convey the stormwater runoff from the site. The streets conform with Section 6.13.6(C)(4) by ensuring that they <br /> 19 cross the stream at a right angle or as close to it as possible. In my professional opinion, I believe the plan conforms with all <br /> 20 of the special requirements applicable to this use, special use requirements in LIDO Section 5.3.2(A), specific Special Use <br /> 21 Requirements in UDO Section 5.3.2(B), as well as the specific requirements for recreational facilities in 5.7.2. And it is also <br /> 22 my professional opinion that the site is designed as per the development standards of Article 6 of the Orange County UDO <br /> 23 and if there are no questions at this time, I will bring up Mr. Lyle Overcash. <br /> 24 <br /> 25 Leon Meyers: Board members, questions for Mr.Wirt?Will there be any further detail presentation on lighting on the site <br /> 26 later in your presentation? <br /> 27 <br /> 28 Will Wirt: There's none planned, but there could be if you need it. <br /> 29 <br /> 30 Patrick Byker: There is a detailed lighting study in the staff report I believe. We're happy to go over that detail, but it's in <br /> 31 your package from the staff.And that gives the footcandle readings across the 53-acres. Happy to go into that in detail <br /> 32 during question and answer. <br /> 33 <br /> 34 Leon Meyers: My question, I may have misunderstood the LIDO standard, in the field lighting presentation in particular it's <br /> 35 page 473 in the agenda package. I believe it shows the lighting levels in footcandles at the property boundary. And I see <br /> 36 some lighting levels at 2.5 and down from there. Does that meet the LIDO standard for lighting? <br /> 37 <br /> 38 Patrick Byker: No,we would have to revise that. My understanding, Chairman Meyers, is that in order to get a certificate of <br /> 39 occupancy for any of these facilities we're looking at tonight,we turned in the lighting standard. After it's actually built, our <br /> 40 team will have to have a site visit with the Orange County Planning and Inspections team and monitor all those footcandle <br /> 41 readings on the perimeter of the building. And then we can't get a CO unless they meet the LIDO standard. So we've <br /> 42 turned in that lighting study, but what really will matter is the field verification that's done after it's built. And then,of course, <br /> 43 there is adjustments made to the lights, the heights, and the directions to make sure that the footcandle reading at the <br /> 44 perimeter is consistent with UDO regulation otherwise we can't get a certificate of occupancy. <br /> 45 <br /> 46 Leon Meyers: I understand. Would you be willing to add a condition on the site plan approval that the lighting levels shown <br /> 47 on that field study will be revised. <br /> 48 <br /> 49 Patrick Byker: Of course. <br /> 50 <br /> 51 Taylor Perschau: Chairman Meyers if I may? I can further speak to, so Page 473,you are correct that the,for urbanized <br /> 52 areas footcandle can be no greater than 0.5 when adjacent to residential. The note at the bottom right is what staff used to <br /> 53 determine conformance that the lighting plan, so the Applicant indicated that shielding was going to be utilized as well as <br /> 54 the landscape buffer neither of which were accounted for,to my understanding, in the lighting plan. <br /> 55 <br />
