Additional comments may be made upon further review of subsequent revisions. Please note: following the TRC meeting, a revised preliminary plan addressing each of the below items must be resubmitted prior to receiving preliminary plan approval. Planning, Zach Dickerson 910-798-7450 1. Zoning – RMF-L 2. Use: a. Residential – 236 units, Multi-Family and Row-Style, Attached. 3. General comments a. Open space is sufficient per UDO requirements. b. Please indicate NCGS datum to which this site plan is tied. c. Buildings 25 & 26 are Type A, are these the only “apartment-style” buildings on the site? If so, this delineation may be helpful in the site data table, just to note that “Building Type A are multi-family.” Not a requirement, just a suggestion. d. Suggestion: Add a note to the plans specifying the areas labeled as Game and Dog Park are included in the open space calculations. It may be good to just leave them named as “Open Space” rather than stating on these plans that they’re going to be a Dog Park/Game area. e. Please address questions that came up about the TIA (see WMPO comments). The Proximity at Blue Clay – Preliminary Plan Major Subdivision – TRC Review Page | 2 4. Parking a. It appears on some of the buildings there are parking spots included in garages, please confirm my understanding of this layout for these types of buildings that numbers 1 and 2 are driveway spaces and numbers 3 and 4 are garage spaces? 5. Tree Retention: a. Per the UDO, not all of the trees outlined in the Tree Removal Table on the site plan are classified as significant. Please see below correction, only the trees highlighted in yellow are significant: 6. Lighting: a. Please correct note that the lighting will be per NHC requirements. b. Please note that with the latest update to the UDO, a lighting plan is not required at time of TRC Approval. See below excerpt from Section 5.5.3: i. Information about the exterior lighting for the site that demonstrates compliance with the standards in this section shall be submitted in conjunction with an application for site plan approval (Section 10.3.6, Site Plan) or zoning compliance approval (Section 10.3.8, Zoning Compliance Approval), whichever comes first, approved no later than at time of construction plan approval. b. When lighting plan is submitted, please ensure that the foot candles from the street lights at the lot lines do not exceed 0.5, as the adjacent land is residential. The Proximity at Blue Clay – Preliminary Plan Major Subdivision – TRC Review Page | 3 7. Landscaping: a. Please submit a landscaping plan for this development per UDO Section 5.4. b. A street yard is not required for residential subdivisions. c. Type B: Aesthetic Buffer required for residential that abuts Industrial Uses (southern property line). 8. Signs: a. Please note that all signs are subject to section 5.6 of the UDO. b. Please submit for sign permits prior to installation. 9. Please note that no building permit for any structure shall be issued which requires NCDOT approval for a Driveway Permit until NCDOT has issued the approval. Evidence of approval shall accompany the application for building permit. Fire Services, Ray Griswold 910-798-7448 1. I am assuming these being townhomes they will not be sprinklered, is this correct? 2. Fire hydrant layout. Need a more clear plan, please resubmit to me a copy without all the layers. I zoomed in and it was still hard to read, symbols and other items on paperwork covering up. 3. Everything else appears okay. 4. Please see appendix for other standard NHC Fire comments. NHC Engineering, Galen Jamison 910-798-7072 1. A land disturbing and a stormwater permit issued by the County are required for this project in addition to the State stormwater permit. Please submit for permits as the design is completed. 2. The existing topography, agricultural ditches, and historical poor drainage along Blue Clay Road offers stormwater challenges as it appears the only adequate outfall from the site appears to be along the railway right of way and under I-140. Please anticipate a request for downstream analysis of the existing rail side ditch per NHC Stormwater Ordinance section 7.8.B during the design phase. A conceptual design for downstream conveyance improvements may be required. 3. The pond outfall into the CSX ROW will require the 100 year storm attenuation. Environmental Health, Dustin Fenske 910-798-6732 1. Site plan reflects connection to public sewer. If public sewer cannot be obtained then septic applications and permits must be submitted and issued. Proposed infrastructure does not violate septic setbacks on any surrounding properties. 2. Site plan reflects connection to public water. If public water cannot be obtained then well applications and permits must be submitted and issued. Proposed infrastructure does not violate setbacks on any surrounding properties. Addressing, Katherine May 910-798-7443 1. Each apartment building will need a building address along with unit addresses. 2. The clubhouse will need an address. 3. All accessory structures will need an address. Maintenance bldg., garages, etc. 4. Utility addresses may be required for pump station, pool meters, entrances signs, dumpsters, etc. 5. 3 street names are required for the interior roads. The two driveways do not need street names. The Proximity at Blue Clay – Preliminary Plan Major Subdivision – TRC Review Page | 4 6. Please contact me for street name approval prior to TRC approval. Addresses can be assigned following TRC approval. Cape Fear Public Utility Authority, Bernice Johnson 910-332-6620 1. CFPUA TRC Comments provided are preliminary comments only. 2. Utility Plan Review required by CFPUA. CFPUA is moving toward becoming paperless. When ready to submit plan review package, upload all documents to https://www.cfpua.org/FormCenter/Engineering-3/Engineering-Plan-Review-103. 3. CFPUA water via a mainline extension; sewer available – will require a pump station. 4. CFPUA Meter Sizing Form will be required. NCDOT, Nick Drees 910-398-9100 1. See appendix WMPO, Jamar Johnson 910-473-5130 1. If the development wishes to offer two full service access points along Blue Clay Rd, this may require extensive roadway improvements (& dedication of right-of-way) to provide inbound traffic adequate room for deceleration and storage when performing the inbound left turn movements, 2. If the development intends to limit the 2nd access for emergency use only, this should be shown in the revised TIA site trip assignments and the site plans submitted to New Hanover County TRC. 3. See appendix for more comments. The Proximity at Blue Clay – Preliminary Plan Major Subdivision – TRC Review Page | 5 Brad Shaver USACOE Brad.E.Shaver@usace.army.mil 1. The Corps is aware of jurisdictional ditches on the property and it appears they are slated to be impacted therefore a permit will be triggered.
