[Durham INC] FW: Text Amendment for TC1000007, Unified Development Ordinance: Sec. 3.7, Site Plan Review, and Sec. 8.5, Riparian Buffer Protection Standard

[Pat Carstensen]

The technical correction are:1. about the size of a sign that there is a buffer (not an issue)2. making " Road impacts other than crossings of streams and other surface water" allowed with mitigation rather than forbidden, and3. not needing a site plan when uses in the buffer is are allowed because there is no "practical alternative" (I think this is one case where we should look more closely to see if there are cases to need a site plan)
Allowable with Mitigation. An allowable with mitigation use requires written authorization from the North Carolina Division of Water Quality, City, or County as appropriate and may occur following a finding of “no practical alternatives” and issuance of an Authorization Certificate pursuant to paragraph 8.5.11, No Practical Alternatives/Authorization Certificate, mitigation strategy pursuant to paragraph 8.5.12, Mitigation. 
Happy holidays, pat
