King's Crossing is a proposed large multi -use project situated on 149.68 acres
located on Moore Road (S.R. 1122) in King, Stokes County, North Carolina.
The existing site is mostly a previously timbered tract which subsequently grew up
with misc. grassy/weed & brush. It was mowed with a bush chipper in late 2019.
The current condition is a regrowth of grass, weeds & small brush.
The soil on the site is a majority (40.3%) of Fairview -Poplar Forest, hydrologic
group C, Clifford sandy clay loam (33.2%), hydrologic group B, Fairview -Poplar
Forest (24.4%), hydrologic group B, and Fairview -Poplar Forest -Urban (2.1 %),
hydrologic group B.
The proposed developed site will consist of 123 single family lots, 65 townhome
units, 23 commercial use units in two detached buildings, and 6 more commercial
units attached to a 51,000 square foot commercial use building. There are also
eight outparcel areas planned for development. The development is projected to
have over 11,590 If of 27' back -back curb and gutter streets, 976 If of 54' wide
parking areas, over 4,328 If of paved 8' wide multi -use pathways along with 5 ft.
wide sidewalks along the streets. Moore Road will be widened from main entrance
eastwardly along the property's frontage for approximately 1,030 If.
The entire site is designed to be graded continuously in segments with each
segment containing approximately 25 +/- Acres where Cut & Fill areas are
approximately balanced and further defined by natural features such as Roads &
Streams. The runoff from the buildings will be piped to the storm drainage system
as can be constructed with the other areas graded to the parking areas. The
parking areas runoff will be collected by inlets and piped to the proposed storm
water detention ponds. The detention ponds are designed to retain the "first flush"
1 year 24 hour 1-inch storm and the 2, 10, and 25 year storm events with release
rates lower than the pre -construction release rates. Because of these low flow
rates the downstream water courses and channels will not receive increased flows
from the site and ponds. Also for the same reasons the ponds outlet pipe flows will
exit over an energy dissipater and level filter area before entering the receiving
water course.
A segmented or phased development approach will began with Section 1
(commercial areas North of Kingscote Way) and Section 2 (commercial and
townhome areas) South of Kingscote Way. Then Section 3 (amenities area) will be
constructed. All 3 Sections will be 80% stabilized prior to beginning any work on
the remaining Section 4 (single family lots).
Street design has been utilized to minimize stream crossings, provide construction
access to various segments and be utilized for connectivity and economy in land
use.
There is an existing sediment basin/stormwater structure left over from previous
development that shall be repaired and reconfigured for use with this planned
development delineated by Pilot Environmental, Inc. whose report has been
included with submitted documents. Stream CL's, Top Banks and Delineated
Wetland areas have been located by Field Survey by GRDG. 401/404 permits will
also be obtained by Pilot Environmental, Inc. and will be made available when
completed. All stream buffers and wetlands will be visibly marked with orange
protection fencing per plan details.
Permanent basins that are to be used as storm water ponds have been slightly
over sized to help control storm water flows as sites are developed. They have all
been design to store and release storm water at pre -developed flows for major
storms including the 100 year storm thus reducing any downstream impacts.
