which it is erecting and will erect dwelling units and other improvements, said development to be known
as Spencer Towns
(hereinafter the Development).
2. The DEVELOPER desires, to construct a wastewater collection system with pumps, wastewater treatment
works, and/or disposal facilities (hereinafter Disposal System) to provide sanitary sewage disposal to serve
the Development on said lands.
3. The DEVELOPER has applied to the COMMISSION for the issuance of a permit pursuant to G.S. 143-
215.1 to construct, maintain, and operate the Disposal System.
4. The DEVELOPER has created or shall create unit ownership in said dwellings units, other improvements
and lands through filing of a Declaration of Unit Ownership (hereinafter Declaration), pursuant to Chapter

Declaration, the (Unit Owners' Association) Spencer Towns Owners Association, Inc. (hereinafter
Association), a non-profit corporation organized and existing under and by the virtue of the laws of the State
of North Carolina, for the purpose, among others, of handling the property, affairs and business of the
Development; of operating, maintaining, re -constructing and repairing the common elements of the lands
and improvements subject to unit ownership, including the Disposal System; and of collecting dues and
assessments to provide funds for such operation, maintenance, re -construction and repair.
6. The COMMISSION desires to assure that the Disposal System of the Development is properly constructed,
maintained and operated in accordance with law and permit provisions in order to protect the quality of the
waters of the State and the public interest therein.
NOW, THEREFORE, in consideration of the promises and the benefits to be derived by each of the parties
hereto, the COMMISSION and DEVELOPER do hereby mutually agree as follows:
1. The DEVELOPER shall construct the Disposal System in accordance with the permit and plans and
specifications hereafter issued and approved by the COMMISSION, and shall thereafter properly operate
and maintain such systems and facilities in accordance with applicable permit provisions and law.
2. The DEVELOPER shall not transfer ownership and/or control of the Disposal System to the Association
until construction has been completed in accordance with the permit and approved plans, and the staff of
the Division of Water Resources has inspected and approved of the facilities. In order to change the name
of the permit holder, the DEVELOPER must request that the permit be reissued to the Association. The
request must include a copy of the Association Bylaws andDeclaration.
3. The DEVELOPER shall not transfer, convey, assign or otherwise relinquish or release its responsibility for

5. The DEVELOPER shall provide in the Declaration and Association Bylaws that the Disposal System will
be maintained out of the common expenses. In order to assure that there shall be funds readily available to
repair, maintain or construct the Disposal System, beyond the routine operation and maintenance expenses,

existing and future wastewater of the Development to be accepted and discharged into said governmental
system, and shall convey or transfer as much of the Disposal System and such necessary easements as the
governmental unit mayrequire as condition of accepting the Development's wastewater.
8. Recognizing that it would be contrary to the public interest and to the public health, safety and welfare for
the Association to enter into voluntary dissolution without having made adequate provision for the continued
proper maintenance, repair and operation of its Disposal System, the DEVELOPER shall provide in the
Association Bylaws that the Association shall not enter into voluntary dissolution without first having
transferred its said system and facilities to some person, corporation or other entity acceptable to and
approved by the COMMISSION by the issuance of apermit.

DEVELOPER:
Carolina Cottage Homes, LLC
2550 W Tyvola Rd, Suite 100
Charlotte, NC 28217
DESCRIPTION:
We would like to request approval for sewer extension to the project site of Spencer Towns.
The property will consist of 28 townhomes and 2 single family residences. The total
wastewater flow requested and approved was 5,700 gpd. The single family residences will
connect to the existing 8" public sanitary sewer, and the townhomes will allocate a total flow of
5,320 gpd to the private system. We are proposing to install 647.45 If of 6" pvc. Flows from the
site will be sent to the McAlpine Creek, Irwin Creek, and Sugar Creek Wastewater Treatment
Plants (facility permit numbers NC0024970, NC0024945, and NC0024937). This application
package consists of the fast track sewer system extension application, the application fee, the
flow tracking and acceptance form from Charlotte Water, a USGS topographic map indicating
the location of the project, a street level map showing the project area, and the developer's
operational agreement.

SUBJECT: WATER AND SANITARY SEWER FLOW ACCEPTANCE

CORNER OF SPENCER ST & 36TH STREET CHARLOTTE NC
CLTWATER TRACKING# 2018448
After an analysis of the sanitary sewer system associated with the proposed design of project
2018448, Spencer Towns, it was determined that there is sufficient capacity to accommodate the
proposed sewer flow of 5,700 gallons per day (28 units x 190 gal/unit; 2 lots x190 gal/lots) at the
connection point(s) indicated on the submitted utility plan for transmission to the Sugar Creek
Wastewater Treatment Plant; NPDES permit number NC0024937, for treatment. This acceptance of
flow is based on the existing capacity of the designated publicly owned treatments works. Please
see attached NC DEQ flow tracking form.
CLTWater agrees to furnish water to the subject project. The water quality to the subject project is
regulated by the State Drinking Water Act Amendments of 1986 and The Water Supply Management
Plan, PWS ID # 0160010 on file with the Public Water Supply Section of NC DENR. However,
CLTWater cannot guarantee a constant pressure or quality of flow.
CLTWater does not expect any of the above conditions to preclude water or sewer service to the
subject site. However, the applicant should understand that due to the involvement of other agencies
and continuing growth of the water and sewer system, the ability to provide service for future
projects cannot be guaranteed nor reserved. Connection to the CLTVater and sewer system is
accepted on a first come, first served basis.
The applicant should understand that this letter is not authorization to construct private water or
sewer systems, as the appropriate local or State permits are required prior to construction. If the
appropriate authorization to construct permits are not obtained and construction has not started
within one (2) year of issuance of this flow acceptance, and payment for any service connection(s)
have not been received within (2) year of issuance of this flow acceptance, this flow acceptance
approval shall be rescinded and a new flow acceptance request must be made. If you have any
questions, please do not hesitate to contact me at [phone] or Justin Webster (704) 336-
3019.

III. Certification Statement:
Keri Cantrell certify to the best of my knowledge that the addition of
the volume of wastewater to be permitted in this project has been evaluated along the route to the
receiving wastewater treatment facility and that the flow from this project is not anticipated to
cause any capacity related sanitary sewer overflows or overburden any downstream pump station
en route to the receiving treatment plant under normal circumstances, given the implementation
of the planned improvements identified in the planning assessment where applicable. This
analysis has been performed in accordance with local established policies and procedures using
the best available data. This certification applies to those items listed above in Sections I and II
plus all attached planning assessment addendums for which I am the responsible party.
Signature of this form indicates acceptance of this wastewater flow.
