SECTION 4: STAFF EVALUATION AND ANALYSIS
The parcel proposed for annexation currently is heavily wooded with road access from Edgefield
Road, Belvedere Clearwater Road, and Vigilance Way. There are several small office and storage
buildings located at 607-613 Edgefield Road proposed to be demolished for use as an entrance
to the proposed development. The applicant has requested the PD, Planned Development zoning
district at the time of annexation. The Planning Commission is being asked to make a
recommendation regarding the compatibility of the zoning classification of this property prior to
annexation. The applicant has submitted a concurrent rezoning request for a portion of the
property and a Planned Development General Development Plan.
The Planned Development zoning district is described as the following:
NADC Section 4.12.13 Planned Development District
The purpose of the PD District is to encourage flexibility in the development of land to promote
its appropriate use; to improve the design, character and quality of new development; to
facilitate the provision of streets and utilities; and to preserve the natural and scenic features of
open space. This district is intended for use in the undeveloped areas of the city where planned
development offers a superior response to less coordinated single-lot development as
permitted elsewhere in this Chapter. A PD district is specifically intended for development
projects including housing of different types and densities and of compatible commercial uses,

shopping centers, office parks, and mixed-use developments characterized by a unified site
design for a mixed use development.
Section 6.2 of the Comprehensive Plan promotes providing a more varied housing stock to attract
and retain a more diverse population, especially in downtown and near employment centers.
Section 6.2.2 of the Comprehensive Plan encourages revising the zoning ordinance and map to
incentivize a variety of housing types at higher densities. This is further supported by Section
4.2.4 to support the priorities and principles of the Aiken, Edgefield, and Saluda Counties
Economic Development Partnership by providing housing in an area that is expanding with new
industries.
Based on these descriptions and similarly zoned properties within the city limits, staff believes
allowing PD, Planned Development zoning is appropriate for the property.

the collector roads shown on the General Development Plan. These
roads will provide direct access through the development from US 25
to SC 126. A 90-foot right-of-way width will be provided with
sidewalk on one side and multi-use path on the other. The General
Development Plan shows a typical cross section for this road which is
expected to have a 12 feet median, 2 travel lanes with 13 feet of
pavement, concrete curb and gutters and no on-street parking. Curb
cuts will be limited along these roads and no residential lot frontage or
residential driveway cuts will be permitted. 12-foot turn lanes will be
provided at the required intersections. Block length requirements shall
not apply to these roads as sufficient circulation has been proposed on
the GDP.
2. Subcollector Roads - The General Development plan also proposes
subcollector roads. These roads will have a 60’ R/W, 26’ of pavement
width, concrete curb and gutter, and sidewalk on one side and multi-
use path on the other. The purpose of these roads is to traverse the
steeper terrain of the site, from the collector road, to provide access to
the various residential pods. These will not be lot fronting roads and
are intended to be utilized primarily by residents of the community.
3. Local Roads: Access to the individual residential pods from the
collector and major subdivision road will be provided by local roads.
Local Roads will have a section based on a 50-foot right-of-way with
24 feet of pavement and concrete curb and gutters. This base section
would not support on-street parking. Where it is determined that on-
street parking is desired, the street section will be widened to
accommodate. Cul-de-sac radii for the minor roads will be 40 feet to
back of curb. Individual subdivision roads may be designed and
constructed to narrower standards provided that such design is in
accordance with City guidelines during the approval process. All other
design requirements shall follow the CONA development code based
on ADT.
ATTACHMENT #8 Page 6 of 29
4. Alley Streets: Ally streets will also be incorporated into Pods A and B
to allow for rear or side access to cottages, patio homes, and
townhomes. These roads will follow the design criteria of the North
Augusta Development Code.
H. Pedestrian Circulation: All roads in the development shall include pedestrian
paths on each side except for alley streets. For the majority of the site this will
be concrete sidewalks, however, a multi-use trail will be provided on one side
of the collector roads in lieu of the concrete sidewalk. This will provide
interconnectivity between the various residential tracts, the General
Commercial Tract, parks, commercial recreation uses and any other pedestrian
trails in the vicinity. A connection to the I-520 multi use path will also be made.
I. Buffers and Landscaping: Landscaped buffers, site landscaping and parking lot
landscaping shall be provided in the development as described herein.
Landscaping and buffer requirements and standards applicable to each use and
tract of the development and not otherwise prescribed in the General
Development Plan or this ordinance shall be as prescribed in the applicable
Development Code in effect at the time of plan submittal. All buffers shall be
landscaped with existing natural vegetation or new plant material or both to
create a visual screen. Title to the required buffers shall be retained by a
property owners’ association or deed-restricted to prevent a change of use.
Minimum buffer requirements between tracts and uses are:
1. Commercial / Residential – A 40’wide type D buffer shall be provided on
all commercial tracts as separation from all residential tracts and uses, both
internal and external to Kellogg Tract. If tracts are separated by collector
road, section I.3 shall govern.
2. Residential / Residential – A 40’ wide buffer planted to type C buffer
planting requirements per NADC shall be provided as separation between
residential tracts and any other proposed use internal and external to the
development. This buffer shall also be provided between single-family
detached and any other proposed use and where owner occupied housing
meets rental housing.
3. Collector Road – The primary collector roadway in the development shall
be bordered by a 40’ wide buffer planted to type D buffer requirements
within the Mixed-Residential tracts. In all other tracts the landscaped
setback/buffer from the collector road shall be not less than twenty-five (25)
feet. Buffers for all roads abutting lots for development shall make use of
buffer on property line per NADC 7.4.3.3
4. Subcollector Road – The primary roads from the collector through Pod A
shall be bordered by a 30’ wide buffer planted to type C buffer
ATTACHMENT #8 Page 7 of 29
requirements. Buffers for all roads abutting lots for development shall make
use of buffer on property line per NADC 7.4.3.3
5. SC 126 – The landscaped setback/buffer from SC 126 shall meet the Type
C buffer requirement per NADC.
6. Undisturbed natural buffers in equivalent in width to the above shall not
require additional planting, if after site clearing they are deemed by North
Augusta Planning Director to meet the intent of the buffer requirement.
7. Total street trees requirements will be calculated at the required spacing in
the NADC by using centerline length of roadway and subtracting other
unplantable area from the total. Street trees may be used interchangeably
with lot landscaping trees on local and subcollector roads
K. Parking Requirements: All uses shall provide on-site parking as required by the
Development Code in effect when submitted for approval The Planning
Commission may approve or require less than the minimum specified by the
applicable code when an adequate shared parking supply is available and when
desirable to minimize or reduce impervious surfaces.
L. Applicable Standards for Review: The information contained in the General
Development Plan and the General Development Plan Narrative for Kellogg
Tract shall supplement the provisions of this ordinance and shall be used in the
review of tract concept, subdivision and site plans for projects within Kellogg
Tract. In the event of a conflict between the provisions of this ordinance and
the content of the General Development Plan or the General Development Plan
Narrative for Kellogg Tract, the provisions of this ordinance shall prevail.
General design criteria and development standards (parking, landscaping, etc.)
applicable to each phase of the development and not otherwise prescribed in the
General Development Plan, the General Development Plan Narrative or this
ordinance shall be as prescribed in the Development Code in effect on the date
of submittal.
M. The Traffic Impact Analysis titled “Kellogg Tract Traffic Impact Study” for
Cranston Engineering dated October, 2024 is included in this ordinance by
reference.
II. All ordinances or parts of ordinances in conflict herewith are, to the extent of such
conflict, hereby repealed.
III. This Ordinance shall become effective immediately upon its adoption on second
reading.

CHAPTER 1
INTRODUCTION
1.1 GENERAL
The Kellogg Tract Development is a 467-acre tract located partially within the limits
of the City of North Augusta and is currently owned by the Kellogg Corporation.
The overall property consists of 3 separate tracts identified as County TMPs 011-19-
01-001, 012-08-01-001, and 011-14-04-045. Majority of the property is located
directly between Interstate 520 (Palmetto Parkway) and Edgefield Road with two
smaller tracts located east of I-520 and north of Belvedere Clearwater Road.
Approximately 86 acres of property (TMP 012-08-01-001) are located within city
limits and are currently zoned CR. The remaining property is located in
unincorporated Aiken County and will be annexed into city limits concurrently with
the rezoning.
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 design of the development, and the specific elements of the proposed
plan. It is the intent that this narrative with the General Development Plan drawing
will fully suffice to meet the requirements for submittal in the re-zoning of the
property to a PD district.

CHAPTER 2
SITE ANALYSIS
2.1 SITE CHARACTERISTICS
2.1.1 LOCATION
The southern portion of the Kellogg Tract is located within the city limits of North
Augusta and consists of approximately 86 acres of land. The remaining property to
the north is located in unincorporated Aiken County. Properties adjacent to and
surrounding the site are located both in the North Augusta city limits and in
unincorporated Aiken County. The Kellogg Tract adjoins the new Highland
Springs/Alidade development directly to the north and east of the property. The
property is bisected by Interstate 520 and located to the east of Highway 25, and
north of SC Highway 126 (Belvedere-Clearwater Road).
2.1.2 TRACT DESCRIPTION
Kellogg Tract primarily adjoins either residential or undeveloped land that is
planned to be the Highland Springs/Alidade development. Portions of the property
have gentle to moderate slopes while some of the terrain becomes substantial
around the natural wetlands and low-lying draws on the property. The site drains
to the tributary running along the east side of Belvedere-Clearwater Road and lies
within the Horse Creek drainage basin. The natural ground cover is composed of
medium pine and oak trees, together with various other kinds of understory.
2.1.3 TOPOGRAPHY AND SOILS
The property lies slightly below the intersection of the Piedmont Region and the
Coastal Plain, commonly called the Fall Line. A strip of rolling land along this line,
known as the Sand Hill encompasses this tract. Due to this circumstance, the soil
can vary considerably across the site, but none are expected to provide
insurmountable problems to the development of the land.
The topography on site varies from essentially flat terrain along the hilltops to
steeper terrain falling to the stream, wetlands and natural draws. Elevations on the
site range from 490 on the highest hill to 270 at the southern side of the site where
the stream leaves the property.
2.1.4 WETLANDS AND SENSITIVE AREAS
A wetlands delineation was completed in January 2024 by Nelson Environmental,
INC. Approximately 15 acres of wetlands are located on the property and are fed by
approximately 266 LF of perennial stream and 280 LF of intermittent stream. There
is also an existing pond located near the center of the wetlands that covers
approximately 4 acres of property.
EXHIBIT B
ATTACHMENT #8 Page 16 of 29
3
As development work is proposed which would potentially impact wetlands, Federal
law requires that the wetlands be field delineated, mapped and submitted to the
U.S. Army Corps of Engineers for concurrence. Then, any impacts such as the
filling or piping of wetlands can only be done after a permitting process through the
Corps of Engineers. The City of North Augusta also has local regulations in place to
protect these sensitive areas.
2.1.5 HYDROLOGY
The City of North Augusta has adopted regulations which require that water flows
during storm events from a given site not be increased onto downstream properties
as a result of the development. Thus, nearly all developments have stormwater
detention facilities where the excess runoff is stored for slower release downstream.
2.1.6 FLOOD PLAIN
The presence of a recognized 100-year floodplain can have substantial impact to
the planning for development of tract of land. Most local ordinances prohibit
development in the floodway and limit development in the floodplain fringe.
According to Flood Insurance Map Panel Nos. 45003-C0312E, 45003-C0316E, and
45003 C318E, this property does not have an established 100-year floodplain.
2.2 EXISTING AND PLANNED INFRASTRUCTURE
2.2.1 WATER SERVICE
Water service to Kellogg Tract will be provided by the City of North Augusta. There
is currently a 24-inch main that runs parallel to the Colonial Pipeline easement on
the neighboring Highland Springs property. This line will serve the tract east of
Interstate 520. There is a 6” main that runs along Edgefield Road that will be
looped through the property west of 520 to the existing 8” main on Belvedere
Clearwater Road. If additional pressure is required to serve the development, new
lines could be brought from the 92-acre tract to the north which has a planned loop
from the 12” main north of the 25 connector to the 6” main on Edgefield Road.
Another alternative would be to extend a new line from the 24” main where it
crosses Belvedere-Clearwater Road to the east of the property. The exact routing
of a new water service will be determined with the first section of development and
sufficient service is readily available for the development.
2.2.2 SANITARY SEWER SERVICE
A sanitary sewer trunk main was extended by the City of North Augusta on the
neighboring Highland Springs property along Mims Branch from the Horse Creek
Treatment Facility to Old Sudlow Lake Road in the mid-2000s. This line was
designed to provide service to Highland Springs development and surrounding
areas which includes the Kellogg Tract. The trunk will be accessed by new on-site
pump stations and off-site force main which will be routed down Belvedere-
Clearwater Road and Old Sudlow Lake Road.

2.2.3 UTILITY EASEMENTS
The only known easements on this property is a Dominion Energy over head power
easement boarding the tract east of Interstate 520. Should any work be required
within their easement, an encroachment permit will be obtained from the utility
provider.

CHAPTER 3
LAND USE PLAN
3.1 GENERAL
The General Development Plan pictorially shows the elements of the proposed
planned development. The plan has been developed around two main roads, one
which follows a north south orientation and one that follows an east west
orientation through what will traverse the main residential area. The development
plan also shows a commercial area along Belvedere Clearwater Road. The rest of
the development is made up of single family and mixed residential.
3.2 LAND USES
3.2.1 COMMERCIAL
The area shown as C on the plan will be for commercial use. The 27 acres are
intended to be developed with uses allowed for general commercial, such as
shopping centers, grocery stores, retail, uses permitted in CONA General
Commercial district, etc.
3.2.2 MIXED RESIDENTIAL
The areas shown as A and B are planned as mixed residential uses and comprised
of some 411 acres. Designation A consist of 276 acres and is expected to have
single-family detached lots. This pod is planned for a maximum density of 8
units/acre with an average density of 3.6 units/acre. This allows for a maximum of
993 detached units in Pod A.
Designation B consist of 135 acres and is expected to include more densely
developed uses including single-family, patio homes/cottages, duplexes, town
homes, apartments, and condominiums. These areas are expected to have a
maximum density of 16 units/acre with an average density of 6 units/acre. This
allows for a maximum of 810 residential units in Pod B. The maximum number of
apartment units permitted in Pod B is 300 units. Pod B also permits some minor
commercial use. This will be limited to uses permitted under the General
Commercial district and the maximum building coverage shall not exceed 30,000 SF
in all of Pod B if incorporated.
The average density across the 411 acres of mixed residential shall not exceed 4.3
units/acre. This allows for a maximum of 1763 units in pods A and B collectively.
The GDP proposes multiple pods to be developed in areas A and B. These pods
have been delineated based on early planning exercises considering terrain and
anticipated utilities, stormwater and roadway infrastructure. Table 1 also references
various design standards for each residential use. The current master plan
proposes the following residential uses in each pod:
EXHIBIT B
ATTACHMENT #8 Page 19 of 29
6
· Pod A-1: Single-Family Medium Lot; Single-Family Small Lot; Patio Homes
· Pod A-2: Single-Family Medium Lot; Single-Family Small Lot; Patio Homes
· Pod A-3: Single-Family Large Lot; Single-Family Medium Lot
· Pod A-4: Single-Family Small Lot
· Pod B-1: Single-Family Small Lot; Cottages; Townhomes
· Pod B-2: Single-Family Small Lot; Cottages
· Pod B-3: Single-Family Small Lot; Cottages
Other uses, such as multi-family residential, condominiums and general commercial
are permitted in Pod B with limitations. If these uses are proposed during
development, it would be expected they be developed with Pod B-1.
Architectural elements include slab construction, masonry, fiber cement siding, and
vinyl siding or a combination thereof. Some of the larger single-family detached
housing will have garages. Size, placement, and access to garages for the single-
family, detached dwellings will be determined and regulated by the developer
and/or the builder. Townhome and multi-family units will have front facing garages
as follows: for units with widths less than 24 feet an 8-foot garage is allowed, for
units with widths equal to or greater than 24 feet a 16-foot garage is allowed.
Townhome garages are expected to be provided on the exterior units, but this could
change depending on the demand of the market. All mixed residential areas could
include some neighborhood commercial such as professional, educational, church,
childcare, grocery, laundry, convenience store, etc.
3.2.3 OPEN SPACE, PARKS, RECREATIONAL AMENITIES AND CRITICAL AREAS.
As seen on the Plan, approximately 29 acres of property are designated to area
designation D which encompasses the wetlands, 50-foot wetland buffer, and other
surrounding areas. The 86-acres of property within City limits currently zoned
Critical Area (CR) only covers approximately 7 of the 18-acres of environmentally
sensitive areas on-site. The property located within pod D will be primarily reserved
for passive greenspace. This area may include some low impact development such
as walking trails, gazebos, picnic areas, etc. Per section 3.2.6 below, the
impervious surfaces in this area shall not exceed 2 acres in total. There may also
be a need to install some necessary, but minimal, sewer infrastructure in this area
such as, a pump station, underground piping and a potential aerial crossing, due to
the nature of the terrain on-site. The purpose of this area designation is to
maintain the original intent of the Critical Area zoning by protecting the sensitive
areas on-site and maintaining the natural ecosystem to the best extent possible.
Allowing for some minor development of amenities will allow this area to be utilized
and enjoyed by the community.
In addition to designation D, recreational amenities and/or parks will be
incorporated into the residential areas. The actual planning and development of
these parks or amenities will be undertaken as various sections of the development
progress. It is anticipated that portions of the parks will include more formalized
features such as swings and other playground type of equipment, whereas other
EXHIBIT B
ATTACHMENT #8 Page 20 of 29
7
portions will consist of more passive areas including trails and natural vegetation. A
centralized amenity site in the mixed residential area is also anticipated for the
development. This amenity site is expected to encompass approximately 5 to 6
acres of property in Pod B-2 and will include features such as a pool, clubhouse,
tennis, pickleball, volleyball, picnic areas, etc. This site is expected to be
constructed after the first 400 lots are developed.
3.2.4 BUFFERS
The plan indicates certain buffers which are intended to help ease the transition
from areas of differing uses. In general, the commercial area to the south will have
50-foot buffers where it abuts a residential use or neighboring properties. 40-foot
buffers are called for where single family areas abut neighboring residential
properties. 40-foot buffers will also be provided along the main spine roads while
30’ buffers will be provided along the subcollector roads. Riparian buffers will also
be provided around environmentally sensitive areas such as wetlands, streams and
drainage ways. Refer to section 4.3 for additional information.
3.2.5 SETBACKS
Setbacks for the various areas within the tract are shown in Table 2. In addition to
the setbacks as prescribed in Table 2 the side setback from adjoining residential
districts will be 30 feet and from all other districts 10 feet. Front setbacks on single
family detached and attached lots shall allow for a driveway of 18’ in length to
provide room for parking.
3.2.6 IMPERVIOUS SURFACES
Limitations on impervious surface ratios will be enforced based on proposed use as
outlined in table 1 below. The percentages in the table provide the maximum
impervious area allowed for each use as the property is subdivided and developed
as separate tracts. If a mix of lot types is proposed in a tract, calculations shall be
provided to determine the average impervious area allowed based on unit
distribution across each pod. Impervious area will also be limited based on land
use allocation. The maximum impervious area across each pod shall be as follows:
· Pods A & B (residential): 35%
· Pod C (Commercial): 50%
· Pod D (Greenspace): 6%

(1) The minimum open space required in this table relates to the individual
development within each pod. At full build out, the property will have a
minimum 25% of the total property acreage (117 acres) dedicated to open
space.
(2) The minimum width of townhomes shall be 24’.
(3) For detached lots that have frontage on both subdivision streets and alleys,
one front setback may be 5’ to work with grades as needed.
(4) Single-Family Large Lot: Defined as detached lots greater than or equal to
70’ in width to accommodate a product size greater than 54’ in width
(5) Single-Family Medium Lot: Defined as detached lots greater than or equal
to 50’ in width to accommodate a product type between 40’ and 53’ in width
(6) Single-Family Small Lot: Defined as lots greater than or equal to 40’ in
width to accommodate a product type between 30’ and 39’ in width
(7) Cottage: Defined at detached lots greater than or equal to 30’ in width to
accommodate a product type less than 30’ in width.
(8) Refer to section 3.2.2 for commercial and multi-family restrictions in pods
B and C.
3.3 MARKETING STRATEGY
It is anticipated that the owner of this tract will develop the portions of the primary
collector roads initially to establish some necessary road and utility infrastructure.
From there the marketing strategy will be dictated by the economy and market
conditions. The mixed residential pods will likely be developed in 40-or 50-acre
tracts, or larger, to establish lots and residents within the community. These
individual tracts will likely then be developed in stages as the market dictates by
EXHIBIT B
ATTACHMENT #8 Page 22 of 29
9
the developer. It is understood that at the time of development of the 40-to 50-
acre tracts, issues concerning circulation, density, conformance to pod maximum
and average densities, etc., will be addressed during the North Augusta approval
process. The developer will likely sell the commercial area to other developers that
specialize in this type of development. The developer may also wish to sell tracts in
designation A and B to other developers, it is anticipated that each of these areas
will have its own Property Owners Association (POA) when sold. Each developer of
individual tracts will be responsible for property management of that individual
parcel as well as development of design plans, permitting of individual sections of
the land according to North Augusta ordinances and the overall development of that
tract within the framework of this planned development.
3.4 PHASING
The phasing of such a large tract of land is primarily dependent upon market forces
as they affect the type of product which the buyers desire and the rate at which
buyers acquire the various products. Nonetheless, a phasing program has been
included on the General Development Plan. In general, it is anticipated that the
initial phase of the development will be directed toward the installing portions of the
collector road from SC 126 and required utility infrastructure. The timing of
completing the collector roads from Edgefield Road to Belvedere Clearwater Road
should be dictated by the traffic study depending on projected traffic patterns. The
second phase is anticipated to be residential and developed around the construction
of the sewer trunks that will run from the end of the low-lying wetlands. The
commercial areas are expected to be developed shortly after the initial phase or the
first phases of residential depending on the market. Due to the volatility of the
economy, the description of the future phases of development is difficult to define.
EXHIBIT B
ATTACHMENT #8 Page 23 of 29

CHAPTER 4
DESIGN PRINCIPLES
4.1 INTERCONNECTIVITY
4.1.1 ROAD SYSTEM
It is the intent of this Plan that portions of the collector road be installed first with
the residential areas planned to provide access to the individual pods. This will also
allow the developer to run the necessary utility infrastructure down the proposed
right-of-way to serve the development. A master traffic impact analysis has been
completed and is based on unit counts and uses proposed on the current master
plan. This study analyzes the impacts of traffic generated from the development to
existing roadways and outlines the required recommendations for off-site and
access improvements. As the development progresses and variations to the master
plan occur, amendments to the TIA shall be completed. Internal traffic patterns will
also be analyzed with sections of development to determine required improvements
on-site, as well as the necessary timing of required roadway infrastructure within
the development.
4.1.2 PEDESTRIAN
All roads will have pedestrian paths on both sides of the road which will provide
interconnectivity of the various development pods. For the majority of the site,
these paths will be concrete sidewalks. However, the collector and subcollector
roads will have 8’ multi-use path on one side and concrete sidewalk on the other.
Connectivity to the I-520 multi-use path is also desired by the developer from the
site. This is expected to occur with the development of Pods A-2 and A-3. 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.
4.2 GREEN SPACE
As mentioned in Section 3.2.6, the Plan reserves approximately 29 acres of
property in pod D to designated greenspace surrounding the wetlands. Common
open space areas will also be incorporated into pods A, B and C as defined in table
1. At full build out, the development shall have a minimum of 25% open space
(117 acres) across the entire property. Green space will include buffers and other
green areas which will be associated with the internal development of various pods.
It is the intent of the Plan that green spaces be provided to enhance the quality of
life for all residents in the development. At least 20% of residences should be
within 1000’ of open, parks or the greenway. At the time of individual pod
development, issues of green space will be further defined and calculated so as to
conform to City standards.
EXHIBIT B
ATTACHMENT #8 Page 24 of 29
11
4.3 RIPARIAN BUFFER
It is acknowledged that the City of North Augusta requires a riparian buffer of 50
feet on each side of drainage ways, streams and wetlands. It is evident that
several natural draws run through the property, to the wetlands, which drain
surrounding properties as well as the I-520 corridor. Due to the nature of the site,
several ponds and sanitary sewer utilities are expected to be located in these
depressions where jurisdictional streams or wetlands have not been identified.
Several strategic road crossings will also be required to allow for access to various
portions of the property and interconnectivity through the development. Aside from
these improvements, these drainage ways will be left natural to the best extent
possible to allow water to flow naturally through the development to the proposed
ponds and ultimately to the wetlands. In some cases, improvements to these
depressions will need to be implemented. This may involve defining and stabilizing
channels appropriately to control stormwater through areas of development. At
the time of preliminary plat approval, the City will consider accepting the
designated open space that the applicant is willing to dedicate in addition to the
required dedication.
The site lies in both the Willow Wick Basin and Horse Creek drainage basins. Both
basins are studied and monitored for TMDL of specified pollutants. Additional
protection measures in accordance with section 13.2 of the NADC will be considered
during design and development around the wetlands. If encroachments to the 50’
undisturbed buffer are proposed within reason, the appropriate design measures
will be taken to achieve buffer encroachment approval. The City also requires a
mandatory 25’ undisturbed buffer around the wetlands which shall be maintained
aside from work associated with required sanitary sewer infrastructure.

CHAPTER 5
REQUIRED INFRASTRUCTURE
5.1 ROADS
The primary roads within the project will be the collector and subcollector roads
shown on the General Development Plan. The collector roads will have a 90-foot
right-of-way with sidewalk on one side and multi-use path on the other. The
General Development Plan shows a typical cross section for this road which is
expected to have a 12’ center cut median, two travel lanes with 13 feet of
pavement and concrete curb and gutters and no on-street parking. Curb cuts will
be limited along these roads and no residential driveway connections will be
permitted. 12-foot turn lanes will also be provided at the required intersections.
The General Development plan also proposes subcollector roads. These roads will
have a 60-foot right-of-way with sidewalk on one side and multi-use path on the
other. The purpose of these roads is to traverse the steeper terrain of the site from
the collector road and to provide access to the various residential pods. These will
not be lot fronting roads and no residential driveway cuts will be permitted. These
roads are intended to be utilized primarily by residents of the community.
Some rear ally streets will also be incorporated into Pods A and B to allow for rear
access to cottages, patio homes, and townhomes. These roads will follow the
design criteria of the North Augusta Development Code.
The remaining roads shown on the Plan will be subdivision roads depending upon
final design and traffic counts. The individual subdivision roads will have a section
based on a 50-foot right-of-way with 24 feet of pavement and concrete curb and
gutters. This base section would not support on-street parking. Where it is
determined that on-street parking is desired, the street section will be widened to
accommodate. Cul-de-sac radii for the minor roads will be 40 feet to back of curb.
Individual subdivision roads may be designed and constructed to narrower
standards provided that such design is in accordance with City guidelines during the
approval process.
As required by NADC 4.12.13.9, two additional elements shall be implemented to
qualify for zoning to the PD district. The multi-use path will be provided on
collector and major subdivision roads in lieu of a bike lane. This will also provide a
connection to the 520 greenway to promote its use. Also, customized entries will
be provided at the proposed connection to SC126 and US25. If this cannot be
provided at these entries due to signalize intersection restraints, the alternative will
be to provide customized entries at all connections of the local and subcollector
roads to the connector road. These approximate locations have been shown on the
GDP for reference but may change slightly in design once the exact location of
driveways are determined.

5.2 WATER SERVICE
Water service will be obtained from the City of North Augusta. Individual areas to
be developed will be designed such that water lines are looped and cross connected
to the various areas to provide a reinforced system throughout the tract. Water
systems will be designed according to South Carolina Department of Health and
Environmental Control requirements as well as those of the City of North Augusta.
Simultaneously with the first phase of development a master overall water plan will
be submitted to the City for approval. The plan will show the general concept for
main lines but will not have details of individual lots since these will be developed in
phases.
5.3 SANITARY SEWER SERVICE
Sanitary sewer service for the majority of the development will be by gravity flow
to a new pump station to be located on-site. The pump station will feed a force
main that will be routed to the existing sanitary trunk main located at Old Sudlow
Lake Road and Mimms Branch. All sanitary sewer extensions will be designed in
accordance with the South Carolina Department of Health and Environmental
Control and City of North Augusta guidelines.
Simultaneously with the first phase of development a master overall sewer plan will
be submitted to the City for approval. The plan will show the general concept for
the main sewer but will not have details of individual pods since these will be
developed at the time that 40-to-50-acre tracts are developed.
5.4 STORMWATER DETENTION
While the final stormwater detention for the entire tract may ultimately be provided
by some regional ponds, early development in both the residential and commercial
sections may require individual/temporary detention ponds. Such facilities will be
designed as needed and will be done according to the City of North Augusta
standards. Most of the detention on-site will be positioned in the natural draws
near the end of the wetlands. These ponds will be designed to handle off-site flows
and address stormwater quality and quantity.

CHAPTER 6
DEVELOPMENT IMPACTS
6.1 GENERAL
The development of a large tract of land, by its nature, can impact the surrounding
areas and property owners. The influx of a large number of new homeowners can
affect traffic, utilities, recreational facilities, schools and other factors.
6.2 SURROUNDING PROPERTIES
The development of Kellogg Tract is not anticipated to directly affect the majority of
surrounding properties. Approximately 27 acres is intended to be general
commercial. This will provide an asset to surrounding residential property. This
development is planned at Belvedere Clearwater Road and will be developed on the
east side of the Ridgefield Drive connection to provide separation from existing
residences. The bulk of the remaining surrounding lands is already residential and
should be compatible with the residential uses proposed. Where higher density
residential, such as mixed residential is developed, buffers will be provided. Finally,
in areas where commercial is developed on the tract, these facilities will be
compatible with single family residential uses and will provide an asset for the use
of residents located near Highland Springs/Alidade. It is anticipated that the
proposed development will enhance rather than detract from property values of
surrounding lands.
6.3 TRAFFIC
The influx of some 1,763 (maximum expected) residential units, some 1,000
(maximum expected) employees and outside customers of neighborhood business
obviously increases traffic. Fortunately, the collector roads will facilitate the
movement of the traffic to the major and minor arterial roads of U.S. 25 and
Belvedere Clearwater Road. Nonetheless, the presence of these roads should help
the internal traffic generated by the development to have less impact on
surrounding roads.
There undoubtedly will be increases to the traffic counts. A master traffic impact
study has been prepared by Kimley-Horn titled “Kellogg Tract Traffic Impact
Analysis” and dated October, 2024. This traffic study will be submitted for review,
and approved by local and state regulators prior to beginning the first section of
development. This study analyzes the impact of traffic generated onto adjacent
roadways for the development in its entirety based on the current master plan. The
current master plan accounts for 1268 residential units and 74,000 SF of
commercial use as defined in the TIA. There is some opportunity for additional
units to be incorporated with changes in the demand of the market. If this occurs,
amendments to the TIA will be required. Based on previous experience, it is more
beneficial to analyze the timing of recommended mitigation and internal traffic once

some initial design has occurred and master plan has been modified. This will
provide better clarity on required phasing and density of the development. This will
also allow for some of the internal traffic patterns to be analyzed to determine
requirements for on-site infrastructure.
6.4 MAJOR ROADS
The major roads impacted by the development are U.S. 25 and Belvedere-
Clearwater Road. U.S. 25 has fairly heavy traffic during parts of the day and the
proposed development will add to that number. Traffic along Belvedere clearwater
road is expected to increase rapidly based on the anticipated development coming
to this area. However, the proposed entrance has close proximity to the 520
interchange and will allow traffic to access the interstate quickly from the site. Both
roads are 4-lane roadways with center left turn lane, and it is not likely that the
volume of traffic to be generated from the Kellogg Tract development will cause the
number of lanes to increase.
6.5 RECREATIONAL FACILITIES
There are no known North Augusta Recreational Facilities in close proximity to the
project tract. However, the inclusion of a number of parks, amenities and green
areas associated with the Kellogg Tract Development provides for such facilities to
be in close proximity to the future residents. Thus, the development should not
adversely affect the existing recreational facilities.
6.6 DRAINAGE
The property general drains towards the wetlands on-site which flow to a pipe
under Interstate 520 ultimately reaching Horse Creek by way of an unnamed
tributary. It is intended that the development will have several detention ponds to
control stormwater runoff quantity and quality from the developed site. Some of the
ponds may be considered regional based on design and drainage area. The design
of each section of the development will need to analyze runoff to meet the City of
North Augusta Standards.
While this property has potential for substantial development due to its size, there
are several natural drainage ways through the property that convey stormwater
from the surrounding properties bounded by Edgefield Road, Belvedere Clearwater
Road and Interstate 520 to the wetlands. Although these draws were reported to
be mostly dry in the recent wetland delineation, it is intended to leave these areas
natural to the best extent possible as mentioned in Section 4.3. This will allow
water to follow its natural course through the site to the wetlands.
