5.5” B25.0C, 3” I19.0C, 1.5” S9.5C; any overlay of existing pavement is to be a minimum of 1.5” S9.5C
•Secondary Routes with AADT<10,000
5.5” B25.0C, 1.5” S9.5B; any overlay of existing pavement is to be a minimum of 1.5” S9.5B
3)Pavement overlay is required if modification of existing pavement markings and/or lanes is necessary
The grinding of pavement markings will not be allowed
4)Shoulder Widths (Paved + Unpaved) Primary: 8’ minimum | Secondary: 6’ minimum
5)Ditch Slopes - front and back slopes - minimum 3:1 or flatter
6)Indicate existing roadway grade
7)All taper lengths and deceleration lengths should be appropriately designed for the given design speed (page 78)
8)All turn lanes should be designed according to the Driveway Manual and Roadway Standard Drawings (page 79)
See 1205.04 Sheets 1 & 2 and 1205.05 Sheet 1 of the Roadway Standard Drawings for details
9)Pavement marking and signing plans are required - plans must be approved by Division Traffic Services
10)Traffic control plans are required - Detailed phasing plans may be required based on project type and location
11)New and/or revised signal plans must be included for new installations and if signal modifications are required
All signal plans must be reviewed and approved by Division Traffic Services and the Signal Design Unit. A Traffic
Agreement must be completed to facilitate the review. Contact Division Traffic Services at (910) 341-2200.

251 Emerald Lake Drive E – Smith Creek Park Expansion – TRC Comments
NHC Fire, Sunnie Batson 910-798-7464
1. The site plan looks good-- a hydrant will be required near the proposed restroom/shelter. The
nearest existing hydrant is on Tupelo Drive. Unable to locate a proposed hydrant on the Utility
Plan.
2. With the proposed location of the water line, either in the center island of the parking lot, or the
east/right side of the road near the island at the entrance to the parking lot would be a great
hydrant location. Please see below.
NHC Engineering (Stormwater), Galen Jamison 910-798-7072
1. The erosion control permitting will be issued by NC DEQ DEMLR. Please submit for the permit as
the design is completed.
2. A stormwater permit issued by the County is required for this project in addition to the State
stormwater permit. Please submit for the permits as the design is completed. Phase 1 permitting
of Smith Creek Park did not include this parcel in the permitted boundary.
3. A stormwater control measure is required to meet the NHC Stormwater Ordinance of pre-post
storm attenuation for the 2, 10 and 25 year storm event. No measure could be found in the
drawings.

PID#: R07100-004-004-000
Egov# SUBPP-23-0006
Subject: Whiskey Branch – Apartments and Townhomes – TRC Review
The following comments have been received for the December 6, 2023 TRC meeting. 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 – PD
2. Use:
a. Residential – Single Family Attached, 50 units & Multi-Family Apartment Units
b. Please confirm the number of multi-family units proposed.
3. General comments
a. Please note PD rezoning condition 2D, “Sidewalks will be provided along both sides of
roads within the development at a width of five feed (5’), except for portions of roads
adjacent to the “Utility Easement” depicted on the MDP Master Plan, where sidewalks will
be limited to one side of the road.” – Per this condition, it appears that sidewalks would
be required at the areas indicated in red bubble below.
Whiskey Branch Townhomes & Apartments – Preliminary Plan Major Subdivision – TRC Review
Page | 2
b. Please include total acreage of open space for this phase of the project in the site data
table.
c. 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/Pickleball/Bocce Ball area.
d. Please note that approval of the preliminary plans must be given prior to applying for Final
Plat.
4. Parking
a. Do the townhome units have garages?
b. It appears that parking for the multi-family portion is in excess of what is required, but
confirmation of number of multi-family/apartment units will help determine exactly how
much parking is in excess.
c. Suggestion: for parking that is in excess of what is required, please consider using pervious
pavement.
5. Tree Removal/Retention:
a. Tree Removal Permit TR-21-000027 has already been granted for this development.
6. Lighting:
a. 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.
7. Landscaping:
a. Please confirm the 17.82 acreage disturbed for this portion of the development- this would
require 267 trees be planted or retained per UDO Section 5.4.2.B.
Whiskey Branch Townhomes & Apartments – Preliminary Plan Major Subdivision – TRC Review
Page | 3
b. Please note that foundation plantings are required for all portions of a building facing
parking or internal drive aisles, only multi-family in this project. This all looks like it’s being
met with the exception of the west side of Building #6.
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, Sunnie Batson 910-798-7464
1. Apparatus access widths as shown on Truck-17 overlay are acceptable.
