The subject property is approximately 673.131 acres in size and is currently developed as a public <br />service facility (solar farm). This is the correct overall site acreage per the Tax Department for the <br />two parcels and is a technical correction to the original acreage provided on the plan. <br /> <br />2. The application states the site will be comprised of approximately 25 inverters, 26 transformers, <br />and 25 arrays for the site. The site configuration changed from the original configuration due to <br />a change in the technology being used on the site. This is a technical correction to the original <br />plan. <br /> <br />3. The application states that the output from the project will be delivered to Union Power <br />Cooperative and distributed to their grid. <br /> <br />4. The application states that the project has been under construction for approximately 9 <br />months. The substation is constructed and installed on the Five M’s, LLC tract.

The applicant submitted documentation from the NCDOT that includes permits for five driveways <br />to access the site. The permits provided are the same permits from the original submittal in 2017. <br />The driveways have been installed on the site. <br /> <br />6. Addresses have been assigned to each of the five entrances. Address identification signs have <br />been installed as required showing the address, the site location and the pods. The Knox Boxes <br />have also been installed. <br /> <br />7. Two sets of overhead lines are proposed as part of the current project plans.
