5 <br />Proposed Access and Transportation Network Improvements <br />The Project is proposing access from a 50’ private access easement, named Monotropa Trail. Neither a <br />Traffic Impact Analysis (TIA), or a Traffic Assessment was required for this application. Monotropa Trail <br />connects to Buckhorn Road, a publicly maintained right-of-way. NCDOT has reviewed and has no <br />objections to the site plan as presented. <br />Proposed Utilities <br />The property is not in an area served by public water/sewer. Water and wastewater services, including for <br />disposal of dog waste, will be provided via a private well and septic system that meet Orange County <br />Environmental Health standards. <br />Erosion Control/Stormwater Regulations <br />Erosion Control staff indicated a land disturbance permit will be required for this project. It will need to be <br />submitted before construction can be approved.
