FINDINGS OF FACT (PERFORMANCE STANDARDS) <br /> This project requires the review and approval of a Special Use Permit modification of the 2015 approval.There <br /> are standards contained within Section 2.7 of the Unified Development Ordinance that the County must affirm <br /> in approving the project.Within this portion of the narrative,the applicant would like to offer a summary of the <br /> evidence we intend to produce,justifying an affirmative finding. <br /> (1)THE USE WILL MAINTAIN AND PROMOTE THE PUBLIC, HEALTH,SAFETY AND GENERAL WELFARE. <br /> School uses promote public health, safety and general welfare.This is a continued school use. <br /> Campus improvements associated with implementation of the various elements proposed in the Master Plan <br /> include: <br /> I Internal traffic pattern adjustments and parking improvements, based on NCDOT MTSA Traffic Management <br /> Unit recommendations will provide the ability to stack carpool traffic on campus roads during daily student drop off <br /> and pickup times.These improvements will also better separate on-campus automobile circulation from <br /> pedestrian circulation. <br /> I Fire and EMS rescue access to existing and proposed buildings on campus will be better articulated to improve <br /> response times and reduce conflict with on-campus traffic. New buildings will be sprinklered where required by the <br /> Building Code. Nearby water points(ponds)will continue to provide adequate water for fire-fighting requirements. <br /> I Stormwater collection and treatment for improved areas of campus will meet current State requirements which are <br /> above those that were in place during the initial development. Low impact stormwater collection in disconnected <br /> systems will be promoted to allow more infiltration of stormwater run-off into the on-site soils. <br />
