Brent,
Sony this has taken so long. Attached is a final rough draft of the additional
information the Committee requested at our hearing. Per Mr. Teddar's comments, I
am submitting our information for your review and comments prior to our final
submittal. Additional information will be included in our final package from the
Shoe's attourney and the Ford Motor Co. supporting the need for 5.5 acres of site for
their intended purpose.
Please call or fax your feedback ASAP so I have tine to submit prior to the

ADDITIONAL INFORMATION FOR MAJOR VARIANCE REQUEST
FROM THE TOWN OF MOORESVILLE
SHOE ENTERPRISES TRACT, NC 150
as requested by the
EMC Water Quality Committee
9-24-97
The following information regarding the Mooresville, NC/Shoe Enterprises, LLC major
variance request is being provided to clarify important issues addressed at the 9-10-97 EMC Water
Quality Committee meeting. The proposed enhancements to the original watershed detention site
plan are being submitted at the request of the Committee by the applicant. The applicant feels that
a balance between natural and engineered BMPs which exceed regulatory requirements has beeil
demonstrated for this unique site. Based on these enhancements and the clarifying information
shown herein, the applicant requests the Committee recommend approval of the proposed major
variance request.
Attached for the Committee's review are the Town of Mooresville wet-detention pond bonding and
maintenance procedures which will govern this site.
1. The applicant would like to refer the Committee to research by Wendell Gilliam, Soil
o e_ Scientist at NCSU,Raleigh,NC on natural buffers. His research indicates that a 50'natural
buffer offers the greatest benefits in preserving water quality. Gilli 's work focuses on the
effect of natural buffers ' o.ettings in watershed where arge tract drain to rivers and
s streams. Although not direc y related, his conclusions provide a va id consideration when
` determining t e impact on water quality of small commercial sites where maximum
treatment techniques are employed.
2. The regulations embrace the principle that the run-off from the first one inch of rainfall
collects the majority of non-point source pollution during that rainfall. Each additional inch
'- of rainfall collects increasingly less non-point source pollutants. The design requi s
for t is wet=detention pond are based on this principle.
All run-off from impervious areas on the applicant's site will be collected and managed in
a wet-detention pond which has been designed to 1.3 times the volume specifications
required in the watershed regulations. Due to the larger detention pond, the applicant's
storm water collection and management system offers greater protection than provided by
other projects using wet-detention under the High Density Option. tJ 4ee "-�c .jam sila
- v›o'f;
3. The subject site is distinguished from other sites using wet-detention under the High Density
Option. Problems in accurately predicting up-gradient run-off volumes is eliminated due to
the fact that all run-off up-gradient from the site is being diverted away from the applicant's
site by up-gradient topography and existing commercial development. The fact that the
subject tract is only 9.080 acres in size and is not impacted by run-off from other areas up-

00/24/07 WED 11:15 FAX [phone] BK BARRINGER lj003
gradient from the site is of extreme importance. tyt.`19- r
fr
When up-gradient run-off volumes are eliminated,the combination of detention an uffer
techniques employed by the landowner provides more than adequate protection to e
impacted watershed. With this greater ability to accurately predict run-off volumes affecting
the site and BMP,the Commission should have greater confidence in allowing variances
under this type of circumstance. 01,1 k
4. The buffer area as shown on the applicant's site plan will be designed to include the optimal
O k( - c(y1 r plantings of tress, shrubs and ground cover as recommended by the Division of Water Quality. It should be noted that the only run-off to be treated by the planned buffer will be
rainfall on the planned buffer. All other rainfall will be treated by wet-detention. The
beneficial effect of using a 100' buffer versus a 50' buffer, given the applicant's site storm
water design, is negligible.
5. Attached is an analysis of surface water treatment efficiency for the applicant's site. It should
be noted, that the applicant's site is designed with a collection system comprised of 6"rolled
curb and gutter and other interior stormwater collection measures which will collect all run-
off front impervious areas on the site. Three site design configurations are compared. 1.)The
volume of a one inch rainfall treated by a similar size site developed under the "Typical High
Density(HD)Option w/1"Rainfall Detention"on which the maximum 70%impervious area
,r� has been developed is shown for comparative purposes. 2.) Also shown is the volume of a
OtC- °14‘ one inch rainfall treated by the applicant's site (64% impervious area) if the standard
4 detention pond design were used, "Applicant's Site w/1" Rainfall Detention". 3.) Lastly,
V\,, � � the volume of rainfall treated by the applicant's site (64% impervious area) using the
proposed detention pond design of 1.3 times that required by regulation design standards,
`_ "Applicant's Site w/1.3"Rainfall Detention" is shown. 0.
The comparison shows that the applicant's proposed site development plan with an oversize
wet-detention pond will provide 4,867.92 cubic feet more treatment volume than if
developed with a wet-detention pond designed to regulation standards. It also demonstrates
that the applicant's proposed site design with oversized detention will provide 3,346.70 cubic
feet more treatment volume than a similar size site developed to the maximum with a
standard wet-detention pond. Cite_
Conclusion.
In this case,the issue of changing the size of the buffer, 50'versus 100',is less important than
the effectiveness and efficiency of the storm water collection and treatment systems. The
applicant's plan provides greater than maximum collection and treatment effectiveness and
efficiency in its design. The applicant seeks a variance from the buffer demands of the
regulations due to the uniqueness of his site and that he exceeds the efficiency and
effectiveness demands of the regulations. The applicant's variance request clearly presents
a development plan which preserves the spirit and the intent of the ordinance,protects the
general health and welfare of the community and shows that substantial justice will be done
for all concerns by granting the requested variance.

option application. Said fee shall be in accordance with a fee
schedule adopted by the Town Board. No application for high
density approval will be considered complete unless accompanied
with the requisite fee.
D. Inspection Fees
Inspection of all stormwater control structures will be conducted: (i) prior to
approval of the high density option for any project; (ii) annually once the
stormwater control structures have been approved by the Town, and: (iii)
any time after improvements, modifications or changes to said structures
have been made by the owning entity. A fee, in accordance with a fee
schedule approved by the Town Board, shall be required to be paid by the
owning entity prior to each such inspection being conducted.
