Pelogt~~~ Cc~~~str~~ct~o~~, www.peloq uinconstruction.com Response: We have a very sensitive buffer plan showing primary and secondary buffer locations including the use of open spaces. We have been working with the Eno Park Assoc, and the state of NC to create the final connecting corridor of the walk along the Eno River trail. The 15 acres along the river are being donated to the state, and in addition the HOA is prepared to donate a 4.5 acre parcel to the county for inclusion of the park system as well. In addition to this, we have incorporated a landscape standard into the declarations which will prevent any aggressive cutting of trees within each lot, as well as providing a greater °Io of canopy cover than most developments. We have been working with the planning staff to develop these "green standards". We do not feel it is required to install any language into the declarations re; the fact that there are farming operations as that is the zoning allowed. We have also included building envelopes to indicate the proper placement of residential units to comply with the set backs. 6. Request: language be incorporated to ensure architectural standards. Response: this is ensured by the HOA and ARB as prepared 7. Request: that only wood fences be allowed. Response; This is part of HOA and ARB who are to govern the community. 8. Request: prohibition of chaining of dogs. Response: We have language incorporated in the Covenants re; the placement of dog houses, visual and noise, as well as limitation of animals. We do not feel it is our responsibility to regulate the chaining of dogs. 9. Request: prohibit the use of man-made exterior material. Response: this again is referred to the HOA / ARB and would cause constraints upon their authority and potential use of "Green Products: there are a number of new recycled products in the market which would be considered desirable, yet man-made and quite elegant. 10. Request: that lighting be limited by shields. Response: we have incorporated language on the landscape plan that lighting be governed by Orange County lighting ordinance which we have provided for on the landscape plan for submittal. All other lot lighting is encouraged to be energy efficient in its install and design by providence of the :Green Building "standards in the HOA declarations. The street light ordinance is specific in that it requires a shield on the fixtures. Thank you for your time and please give my office a call should you need further explanation.
