For the project. She introduced Ms. Desiree MacSorley,
principal land planner for Design Resources Group, PA, who is
designing the project.
There are three different areas to the project, MacSorley
said. Open space will be left as required by the Watershed
Control Ordinance and Planning Ordinance, she said.
Regarding the widening of Highway 150, the needed land for
this additional corridor to the highway is available. There is a
proposed continuous left-hand turn lane available at the front of
the project on Highway 150. The property owners plan to build the
left -turn lane if the project comes on before the road widening is
completed. Drive -way cuts are to be held to a minimum on Highway
150. Water quality has been a concern. They have added some
additional GB CUD uses that will be excluded from their
development, which are:
Circuses and carnivals, on a temporary basis, not to exceed
seven (7) days.
Dairy products processing and distributing facilities.
Feed and seed stores.
Freezer lockers and ice plants.
Public works and public utility facilities, including
service and storage yards.
Tire recapping shops.
vending companies.
Dick Brolin, representing the B.K. Barringer Engineering
Company, addressed the sewer service for the project.
Willis Engineers, Mooresville's engineering firm has estimated
the cost to be approximately $1 million. There are two options for
sewer. One is through the current waste treatment plant that
currently exists at River City at 150 Bridge and the second way was
to provide sewer service from the Mooresville line, which
terminates in front of Food Lion on 150 west of I-77. Both options
will cost somewhere close to $1 million. This would pretty well
accommodate growth for the next five to fifteen years, Brolin said.
The chief characteristic about the Mooresville system is that
without water you cannot have sewer. The Mooresville sewer system
would bring both water and sewer capability to the same
intersection. Because of that reason, the Barringer firm is
recommending the Mooresville option as the best avenue as far as
cost effectiveness for this project, Brolin said.
Chairman Haire inquired if the Mooresville Town Board is in
agreement with the request for water and sewer from the Town?
Mr. Brolin said he understood that Mooresville is considering
the request. They have discussed this with Willis Engineering,
Town of Mooresville's engineering firm, who furnished them with an
estimate of the cost.
Wanda Young. Said they tried to take something that is
already designed and planned in the county's land development plan
as a commercial use and use it the best aesthetically as well as
functionally. They have talked to DOT about curb cuts; they have
talked to the water quality people and the department of natural
resources concerning sewer. She believes they have come up with
the best possible use at this point in time, she said.
David Boone inquired about a 100' buffer on the south side.
Would they be willing to make that a part of the conditions?
Wanda Young. Said they would be willing to do that. Because
of where the property is in the watershed, there will only be 30
