Briefly describe your site in each of the following categories:

Applicant's Site Evaluation

NEIGHBORHOOD CHARACTERISTICS

Trend and direction of real estate development and area economic health. Physical condition ofbuildings and improvements. Concentration of affordable housing.Our site is located in one of the most vibrant retail and residential corridors in Asheville. It is locatedapproximately 1/2 mile from the Hendersonville Rd. corridor which has been a focal point for thrivingretail and residential development. This corridor leads into Asheville from the south and includes theBiltmore mansion and the residential neighborhoods developed by its owner and the hospitalcomplex on the southside of downtown. The immediate neighbors are a high school, an apartmentcommunity and a condominium townhouse community with the remainder being single familyhomes. In all cases, the condition of the physical structures vary from good to excellent. There is noother affordable housing in the immediate neighborhood.

SURROUNDING LAND USES AND AMENITIES

Suitability of surrounding development. Land use pattern is residential in character (single andmultifamily housing) with a balance of other uses (particularly retail and amenities). Effect ofindustrial, large-scale institutional or other incompatible uses, including but not limited to: wastewatertreatment facilities, high traffic corridors, junkyards, prisons, landfills, large swamps, distributionfacilities, frequently used railroad tracks, power transmission lines and towers, factories or similar

operations, sources of excessive noise, and sites with environmental concerns (such as odors orpollution). Amount and character of vacant, undeveloped land.The site is immediately adjacent to a school, an apartment community and single family homes. Oursite is dense and will be developed in a "new urbanist" manner encouraged by the City with thebuilding in front and parking behind. There are no undeveloped parcels adjacent to our site, whichmakes it truely an infill location. It is extremely convenient to amenities of almost every type. Thereare numerous restaurants, grocery stores, pharmacies, doctors offices, professional offices, banks,dry cleaners, video stores and numerous other specialty shops within 1.7 miles of the site. A majormovie theatre is less than a 5 minute drive approxiamately 2 miles away. There are no incompatibleuses or environmental concerns with or near the site. The closest regional hospital is approximately7 miles away, which is just over a 10-minute drive. The City of Asheville has its two major hospitalsin one location. therefore, unless you live in the hospital district, a 10+ minute drive to the hospital isvery reasonable for the City of Asheville. The hospital complex is located within the HendersonvilleRoad corridor just outside downtown.

SITE SUITABILITY

Adequate traffic controls (stop lights, speed limits, turn lanes, etc.). Burden on public facilities(particularly roads). Access to mass transit (if applicable). Visibility of buildings and/or location ofproject sign(s) in relation to traffic corridors.The project's entrance will be along Springside Rd. which is a road that has a relativlely low volumeof traffic. The low volume of traffic on this street along with a stop sign at the property's exit will besufficient to provide safe ingress and egress to our property. The City's traffic engineer haspreliminary evaluated the site and its access and determined that no traffic study will be requiredand no special access improvements will be needed. The signage for the project will be at theentrance along Springside Rd. It will be visible from both directions on Springside as well as fromOverlook Drive which carries a high volume of traffic and is just to the norhtwest of the site. Thebuilidng itself will be directly on Springside with parking in the rear and will be 3 stories high, whichwill also provide outstanding visibility for all traffic along Springside Rd.

Degree of on-site negative features and physical barriers that will impede project construction oradversely affect future tenants; for example: power transmission lines and towers, flood hazards,steep slopes, large boulders, ravines, year-round streams, wetlands, and other similar features (foradaptive re-use projects- suitability for residential use and difficulties posed by the building(s), suchas limited parking, environmental problems or the need for excessive demolition).There are no negative or physical barriers that will impede construction or adversly affect furturetenants. In fact, the site is remarkerdbly flat compared to most sites in this region of the state.

Similarity of scale and aesthetics/architecture between project and surroundings.Our project will be a single 3-story building surrounded by a 2-story apartment project, a "2-story"school, condominium townhouses and single family homes that are 1- and 2- stories. Thebrick/siding architecture with a pitched roof will blend in well with this community. Our proposed
