PROJECT NARRATIVE
This project entails construction of 44 new condo units (22 buildings) on 12.3 acres within the Town of
Siler City's ETJ in Chatham County (Parcel ID # 82612). This development will be similar to the
adjacent Phase 1 development that exists to the east of this site. This proposed project includes the
condo buildings, private drives, playground area, water and sewer utilities, storm drainage, and
stormwater management BMPs.
The existing site is rolling terrain with proposed earthwork being closed to balanced. There are no
jurisdictional waters present within the project area. Nor is there any built -upon area proposed
within 30 feet of a perennial stream or wetland. Also, this site is not located within a designated
FEMA floodplain.
The amount of proposed built -upon area on the property is calculated to be 4.7 AC representing 38%
of the property area.
The % Built -Upon Area classifies this project as `high density'. The site has been designed with two (2)
Bioretention BMPs to capture and treat the stormwater runoff from the new built -upon area. These
Bioretention BMPS will also help attenuate peak runoff rates of larger storm events as required by the
Town of Siler City. Stormwater discharged from the Bioretention BMPs will enter the existing storm
drainage system of the Phase 1 project. The stormwater is eventually discharged to Blood Run Creek.
