ConcernS were expressed.relative to lack of sufficient notification to and meetings with area property owners; extension of Fox Club Parkway with an adjacent pending case; linking this case with the adjacent pending case (03SN0259); area road conditions; impacts on water quality of Swift Creek Reservoir; lack'of a regional' BMP plan; schootcapacity; and that the County's estimated averages for number of school children per dwelling unit is loWer'than the average generated by homes inthis area of the County; and the age:of UpPer Swift Creek Plan. It was noted'that by cUrrent poliCY, silt basins will be required to remain until construction of regional BMPs. Mr. Guiley indicated that siIt basins are not required to meet 0.22 lbs/ac/yr and that nothing in the law SUpersedes this requirement. He noted there are no. regional BMPs; no plan; and no application'for installation of the regional BMPs. He stated the request could have a detrimental effect on the reservoir. He noted he did not support the adjacent case and, due to water quality concerns, he could not support this request. Mr. Stack indicated the applicant and area property owners should .get.together and communicate. He noted, the big issue with the adjacent case is the road connection to Foxcroft. He stated moving this case forward gives the.Board an. option for alternate access when the adjacent case is considered. Mr. Litton noted this request- gives the Board an oppommity:to look at access for this development as well as for the pending adjacent case. ' - On motion of Mr. Stack, seconded by Mr. Cunningham, the Commission recommended approval'of this request and acceptance of the proffered conditions on pages 2 through 10.. 17 04SN0116-NOV25-BOS AYES: Messrs.
