There are some minor design conflicts between the two plans. Staff will rely on the initial submittal to control. These "conflict" items include the location of the proposed tennis court and the location of the 10' Type "C" buffer. In the new plan, the buffer is partially located in the same area as the existing.5' drainage easement located along Sandpointe Lane; the original plan.clearly shows that the buffer will be located outside of the existing 5' easement. Also, the initial plan provides a 10' off-site landscape easement along the western boundary of the project within which a Type "C" buffer is to be constructed. The Type "C" buffer is to be constructed by others, but will be maintained by St. Edwards. With the understandingthat the original plan controls over the revised plan on these minor items, staff finds that the revised conceptual plan is consistent with the county's land development regulations. RECOMMENDATION: Based upon the analysis, staff recommends that the Board of County Commissioners grant special exception use and conceptual plan approval (revised design plan sheet attached as an amendment to the original conceptual plan set) for the St. Edwards Upper School expansion with the.following conditions: 1. That school enrollment shall not be increased beyond 375 students without county review and approval of the impacts associated with such increase. 2. That all required perimeter buffer improvements be installed prior to final inspection or prior to the issuance of a certificate of occupancy (C.O. ) for the first phase of project development, and that said buffer shall contain a 6' opaque feature along the site's West Sandpointe Lane frontage. The Chairman opened the Public Bearing and asked if anyone wished to be heard in this matter. Bill Stewart, attorney representing St. Edward's School, advised that they have come to agreement on the site plan changes proposed at the last meeting by the residents of Sandpointe and their counsel, Attorney Bruce Barkett. The only difference between the parties is that Mr. Barkett wishes to have some-:_.of.these issues made conditions of approval. Attorney Stewart summarized the items discussed with the Sandpointe West, noting that the revised site plan reduces the middle school building from two stories to one story; increases setbacks in some areas; decreases the amount of parking spaces; calls for a sloped roof; and reduces the square footage to 24,000 ft. They also discussed some convenience issues, and St. Edward's has agreed to construction taking place only during normal business hours. Another concern was about the lighting of the tennis courts if they are moved, and St. Edward's will accommodate that. The residents of Sandpointe West and Attorney Barkett indicated that they would cooperate in the vacation of that portion of the plat involved and also in releasing that property from the Declaration QTR 6 1994
