Legacy at Mills River — Phase 1

5. Please indicate whether both phases of the project are being permitted with the submitted
application, or only Phase 1. The project name stated on the application is "Legacy at Mills
River — Ph. V' CDC — This plan set is for Phase 1 only.
6. Section E.5 of the application listed BUA associated with Existing Development. Please
note that "Existing development" as defined in 15A NCAC 02H .1002, means those projects
that are built or those projects that have established a vested right under North Carolina law
as of the effective date of the state stormwater program or applicable local government
ordinance to which the project is subject. If the existing BUA indicated on the application
was built after the post -construction stormwater rules went into effect (2006), and
cumulatively disturbed 1.0 acre or more, a stormwater permit was required, and the proposed
project is not eligible to be permitted under the Fast -Track ATC process. Please provide the
construction date and total area of the existing pavement, buildings, bridge, and gravel road
shown on the submitted plans. CDC — Based on discussions with the current owner, it is our
understanding that the site was previously permitted before 2006 by a now defunct
developer. Since 2006, the only improvements to the site have been the pavement associated
with the temporary sales center. These improvements disturbed less than 1 acre and this
impervious area will be removed once the project is complete. Based on this information it is
our understanding that Phase 1 can continue as a fast -track review.
Please find enclosed the following items for your review and approval:
• Two (2) State Stormwater Fast Track Process: "Authorization to Construct" (ATC) Permit
Application Forms [ORIGINALS]
• Two (2) USGS Maps
• Two (2) Construction Sequence excerpt from Sheet C931.
• Two (2) North Carolina Secretary of State documentation
If you should have any questions or need any additional information during your review, please
do not hesitate to call our office.
Sincerely,
