Inter-jurisdictional Analysis—A review to determine the extent to which an interjurisdictional approach may be appropriate, including consideration of possible alternative sites for the facility in other jurisdictions and an analysis of the extent to which the proposed facility is of a citywide, countywide, regional or state-wide nature, and whether uniformity among jurisdictions should be considered. b. Financial Analysis—A review to determine if a negative financial impact upon the City of North Augusta can be reduced or avoided by intergovernmental agreement. c. Special Purpose Districts—When the public facility is being proposed by a special purpose district including a school district,the city should consider the facility in the context of the district's overall plan and the extent to which the plan and facility are consistent with the Comprehensive Plan. d. Measures to Facilitate Siting—The factors that make a particular facility difficult to site should be considered when a facility is proposed, and measures should be taken to facilitate siting of the facility in light of those factors including, but not limited to: 1.The availability of land; 2. Access to the transportation network; 3. Compatibility with neighboring uses; and 4.The impact on the physical environment. Page 2 of 9 Proiect Staff Report RZM21-001 Highland Springs School Prepared by: Kuleigh Baker Meeting Date:April 15,2021 Planning Commission Action Requested: The Planning Commission shall provide a recommendation to the City Council according to NADC§3.6.4.5.1.The Planning Commission's recommendation will then be forwarded to the City Council for their consideration. SECTION 3: PUBLIC NOTICE Per NADC Table 5-1, a notice of the rezoning request and scheduled date of the Planning Commission public hearing was mailed to property owners within 200 feet of the subject property on March 29, 2021. The property was posted with the required public notice on March 31,2021.

SECTION 4: SITE HISTORY The subject parcel was annexed by Ordinance 84-17 on October 1, 1984. At the time of annexation, the parcels were zoned R-3, Residential and OSP, Open Space Preservation. On January 8, 2001,The Mayor and City Council adopted Ordinance 2000-30 rezoning±1485 ac from R-3, Small Lot, Single-Family Residential to PD, Planned Development.

Page 3 of 9 Proiect Staff Report RZM21-001 Highland Springs School Prepared by: Kuleigh Baker Meeting Date:April 15,2021 SECTION 5: EXISTING SITE CONDITIONS Existing Land Use Future Land Use Zoning Subject Parcel Vacant Mixed Use PD, Planned Development North Vacant Mixed Use PD, Planned Development South Single-Family Mixed Use/Low RD, Residential Multi-Family Residential Density Development; RUD, Rural Residential Development, RC, Residential Single- Family Conservation (Aiken County, Outside City Limits) East Single-Family Low Density AP, Agricultural Preservation; RUD, Residential Residential Rural Development (Aiken County, Outside City Limits) West Single-Family Low Density LID, Urban Development(Aiken Residential Residential County, Outside City Limits) Access—The subject parcel has access from Belvedere Clearwater and Old Sudlow Lake Road. Topography —The subject parcel slopes towards the South with the highest elevations lying at the North of the property. Utilities —Water and wastewater lines will have to be extended to the site. Utilities are served by the City of North Augusta. Floodplain—The property is located in an area of minimal flood hazard. Drainage Basin — The parcel is located in the Mims Branch Basin, the only remaining semi- undeveloped natural basin in North Augusta.The Mims Branch basin drains a large undeveloped area located off of Highway 25 from Ascauga Lake Road to Blanchard Road and is bordered by Old Sudlow Lake Road. This basin is considered a "representative basin' for City Stormwater sampling since it is in a relatively undeveloped area and is not impacted by industrial, commercial or residential use.The preliminary physical stream assessments at Mims Branch indicated that it effectively transports the current load of stormwater. Each segment assessed scored higher than other streams in the city due to the location of the stream, topography, and current land use which is mostly "undeveloped" wooded terrain. Water quality sampling results indicated that pollutant loads entering the stream were minimal. Page 4 of 9 Project Staff Report RZM21-001 Highland Springs School Prepared by:Kuleigh Baker Meeting Date:April 15,2021 SECTION 6: STAFF EVALUATION AND ANALYSIS Staff provides the following information for context related to the Commission's deliberation. Descriptions and commentary added by staff will be italicized. The Public Use District is described as the following in Article 3 of the North Augusta Development Code: 3.6.4 P, Public Use District 3.6.4.1 Purpose — The purpose of this district is to provide suitable locations for land and structures in the city of North Augusta used exclusively by the city of North Augusta, Aiken County, the State of South Carolina, the United States, or other governmental jurisdictions and their instrumentalities; and as such shall be used in accordance with such regulations as may be prescribed by the government or instrumentality thereof using the property. This district is also applicable to land owned by public utilities and public service providers of water, sewer, electricity, natural gas,telephone,cable and internet and improved or utilized for the delivery of the public service(power generating ortransforming stations,transmission and distribution lines and facilities, switching stations, etc.). Property owned by public utilities and utilized primarily for office, customer service or retail sales is not appropriate for the Public Use district. If Public Use zoned property is sold to a private individual or individuals, such property shall be rezoned to a classification that is compatible with the surrounding area. (Rev. 12-1-08; Ord. 2008-18) 3.6.4.2 Applicability—A P, Public Use District, designation may be applied to a use located on property used or reserved for a civic or public institutional purpose or for a major public facility, regardless of ownership of the land on which the use is located. A P, Public Use District designation may not be applied to government-owned property that is leased to a nongovernmental agency for a use other than a governmental service or for a use that supports a primary civic or public institutional use. 3.6.4.3 Permitted Uses—The uses listed in Table 3-7 are permitted in the P, Public Use District, subject to the issuance of a conditional use permit as required by Article 5,Approval Procedures. Public lands that are reserved or designated for environmental protection, open space or other natural state should be zoned in the CR, Critical Areas District, rather than the P, Public Use District. 3.6.4.4 Procedures—A site plan is required for uses permitted in the P, Public Use District,to the extent required by law. The site plan may be submitted concurrent with an application for rezoning. However, the Planning Commission and City Council may attach additional conditions to the approval of the district subject to a development agreement. In lieu of the application submittal requirements specified in Article 5, Approval Procedures, the applicant for rezoning to a P, Public Use District,shall address each of the review criteria of this section in their application materials. Page 5 of 9 r . Proiect Staff Report RZM21-001 Highland Springs School Prepared by:Kuleigh Baker Meeting Date:April 1S,2021 3.6.4.S Standards and Review Criteria 3.6.4.S.1 Review Criteria for Rezoning — In reviewing an application for a proposed P, Public Use District,the Planning Commission and City Council shall consider the following: a. Inter-jurisdictional Analysis—A review to determine the extent to which an interjurisdictional approach may be appropriate, including consideration of possible alternative sites for the facility in other jurisdictions and an analysis of the extent to which the proposed facility is of a citywide, countywide, regional or state-wide nature, and whether uniformity among jurisdictions should be considered. Aiken County voters passed a bond referendum on May 1, 2018. The proposal was made based on current capacity limits in Aiken County schools and planned growth in the area. The bond referendum included several other school improvements within Aiken County which are also experiencing capacity issues. The applicant states that the proposed middle and elementary school site is regional based on current population and projected growth. b. Financial Analysis—A review to determine if a negative financial impact upon the City of North Augusta can be reduced or avoided by intergovernmental agreement. There is not another partner agency that will reduce the need for this facility. The Aiken County school district provides public education for all residents of Aiken County. The applicant states that schools are tax-exempt but the school district will payfor utilities and infrastructure that may be utilized by future residential and commercial development in the area. c. Special Purpose Districts—When the public facility is being proposed by a special purpose district including a school district, the city should consider the facility in the context of the district's overall plan and the extent to which the plan and facility are consistent with the Comprehensive Plan. The parcel is not located within any special purpose district or any special district plans that would be affected by a public facility. There are two portions of the 2017 North Augusta Comprehensive Plan that have been reviewed for this report: The Future Land Use Map and the written goals and objectives. Page 6 of 9 Project Staff Report RZM21-001 Highland Springs School Prepared by:Kuleigh Baker Meeting Date:April 15,2021 The 2017 Comprehensive Plan Future Land Use Map classifies the subject property as Mixed Use. However, it should be noted that the Future Land Use Plan does not appear to designate any additional land in the P, Public Use District, anywhere on the map. Failure to designate tracts of land with this designation appears to be an oversight, however, the need to rezone any property to "P"would not necessarily have been anticipated at the time the map was made. Given that the map does not designate additional land for institutional uses, the Comprehensive Plan does seem to anticipate the possibility of locating public facilities in residential districts. Chapter 11, Implementation Strategies, Future Land Use Categories(p.189) states in the description of Institutional, Government and Public Facilities that some facilities "... may be developed in some residential, most commercial and mixed use districts including planned developments and traditional neighborhood developments." d. Measures to facilitate Siting—The factors that make a particular facility difficult to site should be considered when a facility is proposed, and measures should be taken to facilitate siting of the facility in light of those factors including, but not limited to: 1. The availability of land; P, Public Use, zoning is intended to provide suitable locations for land and structures in the City used exclusively by governmental jurisdictions. Schools, academic, continuance, alternative, adult, colleges and universities, and technical, trade, and other specialty schools uses are allowed in the P, Public Use District. 2.Access to the transportation network; The proposal should have limited effects on the existing road network.Any negative effects will be mitigated prior to construction. The property has direct access to both Belvedere Clearwater Road and Old Sudlow Lake Road. Safety reviews of traffic and any signalization that may be needed will be coordinated with SCDOT at the time of construction. This is similar to requirements for any other developer. 3. Compatibility with neighboring uses; and While the surrounding properties are mostly zoned residential, there are very few available properties within North Augusta that will not have some impact on Page 7 of 9 Project Staff Report RZM21-001 Highland Springs School Prepared by: Kuleigh Baker Meeting Date:April 15, 2021 existing residential properties. The surrounding area includes a mix of residential, institutional, and commercial uses at differing intensities and densities. 4. The impact on the physical environment. Any development will be required to meet all state standards for runoff capture and treatment. The following development standards and uses are permitted in the P, Public Use, district: § 3.6.4.5.2 Development Standards — Uses within the P, Public Use District, are not subject to the dimensional standards of§3.5. However, such uses are subject to the landscaping standards of Article 10, and the parking standards of Article 12.

The ow-ter of the-property wishes to dewlap the lamb for nti_x uses and to[hat end wishes to re-zone the property as a Planned Development District (PD) according to the requirements of the City of No_th Augusta Zoning Regu!ations- When the property was annexed into the City by a previous Owner,fie annexation agreement provided conditions whereby the City would provide sanitary sewer to the east side of P.:e property while Pee Oxvner would pay an additional sewer fee for each lot. This agreement still binds the current Owner and the City. 1.2 Purpose of Narrative The purpose of this Narrative is to describe in writing the factors and characteristics which affect site planning. the existing and proposed infrastructure, the principals utilized in the desi_r.of the development and the specific elements of the proposed plan.

There is a sewer line under construction along Ascauga Lake Road into which the sanitary sewer could be pumped by means of installing a lift station oa the Blanchard Tract property. A more recent development with regard to sutitary sewer involves the decision by the City of North Augusta and Edgefieid County to install a trunk sewer up Mims Branch through the Blanchard Tract and on to U.S.25. This line is intended to provide a main sewer interceptor into which Edgefield County can pump sewage to the Horse Creek Treatment Plant. Design is currently undencay to prepare plans for construction of this line. Conversations with the North Augusta City engineer indicate that the line is expected to be completed around spring 2002.

A further difference o;:l be property within the light industrial zones along the spine road- The spine road wilt ha%e a 40 foot ;ardscaped buffer in the light industriai areas behind which%%ill be a 40 foot setback on the front of each parcel. Table 2 shows setbacks and other development parameters for the various uses. 33 tvlarlceting Strategy It is anticipated that the owner of this tract will develop the first portion of the spine rond in the light industrial area and will market some or all of the light industrial pods. The niixed residential pods will likely be sold in 40 or 50 acre tracts, or larger. to individual developers for subsequent design and development. These individual tracts will likely then be deve',oped in stages Ch. 3 Pg. 5 Chapter 4 DFMGN PRIP' GIPLES- 4A Interconneethity 4.1.1 }?off Sfsery - It is the intent of this Plan that the interr4ai read systems in the v=^ious pods be pirartned arw desimted so as to create an interconnectivity bmveen the various sections to facilitate the free flow of vehicles throughout the overall development tmct_ This can most easily be accomplished by minimizing the number and length ofcul-de-sacs and planning for icooed,or grid, road systems. As pods develop adjacent to exsting developed and undeveloped land the interconnectivity to these areas st:ould be considered in light of topographic conditions,compatible adjoining uses,safety and other factors. However,where an industrial road is adjacent to an existing residential area, the developer plans no inter-connectivity. One example of such a location is the right-of-way into %hitehall Road. _ 4.1 2 Pedestrian All roads will have concrete sidewalks which will provide for an interconnectivity of the various development pcds. Beyond that,additional pathways will be needed to connect park and buffer areas so as to provide an overall interconnection of these facilities. The General Development Plan schematically shows the nature of the pedestrian routes, but the actual design and location will depend on the layout of individual pods.

Ric-plan will show the general concept for main 1--utes, but ssili not have details of individual pods since these will be develo sed at the time of 40 to 50 acre tracts are developed. 5.3 Sanitay Sewer Service Sanitary server service for the majority of-le tract will be by gravity nosy to the new trunk line to be constructed jointly by Edgefield County and the City of North Augusta in a 50 foot easement adjrcent to the riparian buffer along Mims Branch. In the event that the lakes shown on the plan get constructed, the sewer and easement will be rerouted around the lakes, or will be otherwise protected in place as agreed to by the City. l;:the interim, should this line not be in place for the Phase t development of light industrial areas, a temporary sewer lift station will be constricted and a force main will be utilized to transport the sewage to the ne+v line being constructed in Ascauga Lake Road. Once the gravity line has been installed, this lift station will be taken out of service and gravity flow will be established. There are a few areas on tite overall tract which do not drain towards Mims Branch and which may require individual lift stations as they are - - - - - Ch. 5 Pg. 2 TRAFFIC VOLVPIE - .-VS AGE DAILY TRAFFIC L ys Arm pe•sii•r&foftw-vcx T"yaits TeimsV ak ADT Tots]1602 A 59.3 17.4_N SRAcre t AJi o SF 73000 S-F. 7-13 1 g $9.9 17,424 SF6Aae ,565.*W SF T61000 S.F_ io.955 f 112.5 17.424 SFFAcre 1,9wo''o SF MOW Sf.

The zoning for this parcel is currently Planned Development(PD).The current owner, Aiken County Public School District hopes to build a school on the property. Since the remainder of the parent parcel is undeveloped and may not be developed for some time, it is much simpler to develop this parcel as a school under Public Use(P)zoning without PD requirements that were developed 20 years ago. • s HASS 8i:HILDERBRA-ND, INC. t33 Greenville St.,S.W.

In response to your request related to inter jurisdictional analysis: the proposed use for the site is a middle and elementary school. This use is inherently regional and based on current population and projected growth. This site was specifically chosen to accommodate children in this region. 2. In response to your request related to financial analysis: schools are tax exempt regardless of their location. The School District will pay for utilities used. On this site, the School District will also pay for infrastructure that will be utilized by future residents and commercial development in the area. That development will benefit the City of North Augusta. 3. In response to your request related to Special Purpose Districts: based on discussions with the City Planning staff,development of the site as a school is in compliance with the City's comprehensive plan. 4. In response to your request related to measures to facilitate siting,the four factors(the availability of land, access to the transportation network, compatibility with neighboring uses and the impact on the physical environment) have been considered in the siting of this facility. The site has been reviewed by The City of North Augusta,Aiken County, The Office of School Facilities and the SC Department of Transportation. Please let me know if you have any questions or need any additional information. Sincerely, v� Tilden Hilderbrand, P.E.
