I compiled this data from well logs, which were provided by one of the <br />staff members in the Orange County Health Department. The wells were drilled in a subdivision very <br />near the proposed Eno Ridge project. <br />The pedestrian trail is 2,155 feet long on the south side of Sara Lou Drive, and 300 feet long on the north <br />side of Sara Lou Drive. We would propose to build the path 4 feet wide using a hardwood mulch base. <br />Thus the total azea required for the path on both north and south side of Sara Lou Drive is 9,820 (2,455*4) <br />square feet. The azea shown for the mini-pazk is 8,580 square feet. Combined the trail and mini-park <br />utilize approximately 0.42 acres of the open space. <br />Lastly, the amount of open space shown in the concept plan was reduced as the plan was modified, as <br />directed by Staff, in order to realign the principal through street to connect to the property on the west, <br />instead of the property to the north as originally shown in the concept plan. This realignment, along with <br />the requirement that none of the driveways connect directly to the principal through street necessitated the <br />addition of another cul-de-sac, named Onslow Court on the preliminary plat. The change in the alignment <br />also required that the street which connects to the property on the north, be lengthened, and two curves <br />added in order to create a 90° intersection, with the appropriate street centerline radius and approach <br />criteria as required by NCDOT road standards. <br />Please advise if you require any additional information. <br />Very truly yours, <br />MICHAEL M.
