Bear C r e e k W ine C o m p a n y O p e n for small businesses, offices and groups!

at Bear Creek Lodge and Wine Company!
Looking for wineries, breweries, or distilleries in the Branson area; Bear Creek Wine Co. offers the most Ozarks flavor
for wine tasting.

Bear Creek Wine Co. features 8 different Missouri Grape wines that range from dry to sweet. We pride ourselves in
offering great Missouri varietal wines with a rural Ozarks atmosphere. Pull up a stool and taste more than just wine; the
culture as well. Our Missouri Norton wine, "The Back-Forty" is a tart, acidic wine that compliments a steak raised in the
back-forty; like no other.

Bear's Breath is another great dry red blend of Chambourcin, Merlot and Syrah; its oak
aged for 14 months and would satisfy even the most particular bear of the den. Vigilante is
a great semi-dry blend of St. Vincent and Norton grapes that pairs great with BBQ and a
roaring summer campfire.

Hillbilly Persuasion speaks for itself; this Missouri Chardonel has all the characteristics of
a great Chardonnay, but with all the flavor and kick of a distinctively Missouri varietal; this
wine is perfect with Taneycomo trout Stone County fried
white bass and hush puppies.

Whitetail is a semi-dry white blend of Vingoles grapes. It
can please the dryest of drinkers and the sweet drinkers as
well; its right in the middle. Its great with spicy cuisine and
unlike a true whitetail; its always in season and not that
difficult to bag.

Innkeepers is by far the Innkeeper "Rebecca's" favorite
blend; its a sweet white blend of Relience and Synphony
grapes that tends to go down a little too smooth sometimes; watch out it's sneaky.
Fiddler's Swig is a classically sweet Catawba grape Rose wine. Its a great "cheese and
cracker, hot summer afternoon on the front porch sipper". The only thing missing is
sawdust on the floor and a whole mess of cousins. Chestnutridge Red is a great sweet
red concord muscadine blend. It's great poured over vanilla ice cream in the heat of the
sum m er or heated ud hot in the fall with mullino SDices and lots of aood cheer!

Rebecca,
This letter is in response to your concern if the waste w ater system located at the Bear Creek Bed &
Breakfast located at 1320 Keithly Rd W alnut Shade, M O 65771 will have to m odified or upgraded for the
Bear Creek W ine Co. application to produce wine on-site. A fter review o f the Div III application it is my
determ ination that w ithout the addition o f new buildings or kitchen expansion no waste w ater changes
will need to take place for the W ine Co. to operate. I will caution you that if new retail, kitchen,
manufacturing, etc. buildings are proposed for the site, addition or new waste w ater systems may be
required to m eet the additional flows caused by such additions. If I can help or answer any questions in
the future just let me know.

REVIEW:

The representative has indicated that Branson Trails will be developed in three (3)
phases over a number of years. The representative has submitted three (3) Conceptual
Site Plans each corresponding to the three (3) phases enumerated within the General
Description above.

Since mixed uses are proposed, per the provisions of Table J-1 of the Development
Guidance Code, the on-site parking space requirements will be required to be
determined on a proportional basis, based upon the proposed uses. The parking
area(s) will have to be designed based upon these specific uses. The applicant will
have adequate property area to ensure adequate parking. However, the staff proposes
that a condition be placed on the Division III Permit requiring the submission of a more
detailed site plan indicating such items as improvements with scale of buildings, streets,
onsite parking and utilities, in order to ensure compliance with the provisions of the
Development Guidance Code.

The representative has indicated that no new buildings are planned to be constructed
for the Branson Trails development. The applicant and representative are in the
process of remodeling the existing structure located at 7318 State Highway 248. The
structure in question actually began as a 1978 mobile home (per the Assessor’s
Information). The mobile home in question has received a number of additions over
time. The representative has indicated that the lower level of this existing building will
be utilized as the Disc Golf Shop & Club House and the Office for Trails Auto Sales.
The upper floor is proposed to be utilized as a four (4) room nightly rental. The
conceptual site plan indicates that during Phase 2 a portion of the building in question
will also be utilized as a laundry / locker room for the twelve (12) tent camp sites. Prior
to utilizing the upper floor for nightly rental the existing septic system will be required to
be upgraded, ensuring compliance with state and county regulations. Even though the
applicant and representative are seeking the approval for the Branson Trails
development via a Division III Permit, per the provisions enumerated above of the
Development Guidance Code, nightly rental would be viewed as requiring a Special­
is e Permit which would not be transferable without Planning Commission approval.
Please note that even though a Division II Permit shall not be required for the
remodeling of the existing building, the personnel from the Western Taney County Fire
Protection District have indicated that a permit will be required via the Fire District due
to the significant change in the use of the building.
As the phases of Branson Trails are developed, the wastewater flows may exceed
3,000 gallons per day wastewater flow and / or six (6) units, requiring the approval of a
wastewater treatment system via the Missouri Department of Natural Resources
(MoDNR). The Laundry / Locker room for the twelve (12 tent camp sites, the four (4)
room nightly rental, the Disc Golf Shop and the six (6) RV site shall require significant
upgrades to the wastewater treatment system(s).

Division III Staff R eport - B ranson Trails - 2015-0007 Page 3
A number of neighboring property owners and tenants have signed a petition, which
was submitted to the Planning Department Office, indicating their opposition to use of
ATVs and dirt bikes on the property. The staff recommends that hours of operation be
limited concerning this use. The staff further recommends that the ATV trails and the
use of the ATVs be limited to the eastern-most parcel of land (Parcel # 07-1.0-01-000­
000-001.009) in order to reduce noise levels being heard within the existing mobile
home park.

The adjoining property immediately to the north is an existing mobile home park and
light residential. The adjoining property immediately to the south is El Monte Road and
vacant property. The adjoining property immediately to the east is vacant property. The
adjoining property immediately to the west is State Highway 248 and vacant property.

The project received a score of -26 on the Policy Checklist, out of a maximum possible
score of 59. The relative policies receiving a negative score consist of emergency water
supply, solid waste disposal service, stormwater drainage, use compatibility and utilities.

COUNTY DIVISION III PERMIT
STAFF REPORT
HEARING DATE: April 13, 2015

CASE NUMBER: 2015-0008

PROJECT: Empire Energy Bulk Storage Facility
(Tri-Lakes Petroleum)

APPLICANT I CURRENT OWNER: Plaster Grandchildren Investments, LLC

REPRESENTATIVE: Empire Energy
Eric Hodge - Rozell Engineering Company

LOCATION: The subject property is located at the
northwest intersection of Sunrise Drive and
Buchanan Road, Branson, MO; Branson
Township; Section 8, Township 23, Range 21.

REQUEST: The representative, Empire Energy is
requesting approval of a Division III Permit to
allow for the relocation of its existing Bulk
Storage Facility from its current location at 943
State Highway 76, Branson, MO to the location
in question at the northwest corner of Sunrise
Drive and Buchanan Road, Branson, MO.

BACKGROUND and SITE HISTORY:

The subject property is a vacant +/- 2.58 acre (per the Assessor’s Information) meets &
bounds described tract of land, located at the northwest corner of Sunrise Drive and
Buchanan Road, Branson, MO.

The current application was approved for Concept on March 16, 2015.

GENERAL DESCRIPTION:

The representative, Empire Energy is proposing to utilize the +/- 2.58 acre meets &
bounds described tract of land as the new location for the Empire Energy Bulk Storage
Facility (also known as Tri-Lakes Petroleum). The applicant is seeking the Planning
Commission approval of a Division III Permit authorizing the development of this bulk
energy storage facility. This facility will be developed with fuel storage tanks, truck
parking and an office / warehouse building. The site plan indicates a new 3,200 square
foot (40' x 80 ) office / warehouse building.

Division III Perm it Staff R eport - Em pire Energy Bulk Storage Facility - 2015-0008 Page 1
REVIEW:

Per the submitted site plan, the bulk storage facility will be served by two (2) commercial
driveways. The first drive will be located off of the Southwest Outer Road of U.S.
Highway 65 and will be built in compliance with Missouri Department of Transportation
requirements (MoDOT). This entramce is indicated on the site plan with an
approximately 51’ width. A second drive will be provided off of Buchanan Road. This
second drive entrance is indicated on the site plan as having a 39’. Both entrances will
be wide in order to allow for truck traffic.

The representative has indicated that the bulk storage facility will include a new 3,200
square foot (40’ x 80’) office / warehouse building. The representative has indicated
that this building will house eight (8) office employees. This office / warehouse building
is proposed to be served by an on-site (septic) wastewater system. A letter from Scott
Starrett, On-Site Wastewater Permitting has been included in the Planning Commission
Packet. The applicant’s engineer has indicated that it will not be feasible to connect to
existing Branson municipal sewer main located a distance on the other side of
Buchanan Road.

Due to the addition of a large amount of impervious surface (a fairly high percentage of
the site will either be buildings or asphalt paved parking lots and driveways) a
stormwater management plan will be required. Please note that the site plan indicates
a proposed detention basin near the northeast portion of the property in question.

The adjoining property immediately to the north is vacant, with the High Road Plaza
(industrial and commercial uses) being located further to the north. The adjoining
property immediately to the south is Buchanan Road and vacant property. The
adjoining property immediately to the east is Sunrise Drive and a propane business.
The adjoining property immediately to the west is the Taney County Transfer Station.

Per the provisions of the Development Guidance Code buffering would not required
between this use and other existing commercial or industrial uses. However, the
engineer has proposed a 10’ wide landscape buffer between the proposed Empire
Energy Bulk Storage Facility and the two adjoining roadways (Southwest Outer Road
and Buchanan Road).

The project received a score of 1 on the Policy Checklist, out of a maximum possible
score of 29. The relative policies receiving a negative score consist of emergency water
supply and solid waste disposal service.

Eric,
A fter review o f the office and bulk storage plant being planned at the intersection o f Buchanan Rd and
the W est O uter road the follow ing daily flow rate should be considered when looking at an onsite
system. W ith 8 office em ployees the daily flow will be 200 gpd, 8 em ployees @ 25 per em ployee = 200
gpd.
In com parison a 3 bedroom single family home will have a daily flow of 360 gpd.
The type and am ount o f lateral field w ill be determ ined by the soils evaluation in com bination w ith the
flow rate of 200gpd.

M ajor Subdivision Staff R eport - Acacia Club E states - 2015-0009 Page 1
REVIEW:

On July 19, 2012 the Taney County Commission adopted the Subdivision Regulations
for Taney County which removed and separated the subdivision regulations from the
Development Guidance Code. Per the provisions of the Subdivision Regulations an
Administrative Minor Subdivision is a division of land, into tracts less than ten (10) acres
in size, with not more than a total of six (6) tracts. Therefore a Major Subdivision is
classified as any division of land into tracts less than 10 acres in size which does not fall
within the classification of administrative minor subdivision. Acacia Club Estates is
considered a Major Subdivision requiring the plat approval of the Planning Commission.
Per the provisions of Missouri Revised Statute and the Subdivision Regulations,
preliminary plat approval shall be based upon the plat’s compliance with the provisions
of the subdivision regulations.

The thirty-four (34) lots within Acacia Club Estates will be served by an existing Taney
County Regional Sewer District sewer main and the Missouri American Water
Company. The Sewer District personnel have indicated that a compliance letter from
the Sewer District’s engineering company (Great River Engineering) was provided to
the Sewer District. However, the Sewer District personnel have enumerated to the
representative that new sewer engineering plans be provided to the Sewer District, prior
to actual connection to the sewer main.

The required, minimum lot size for lots served via public sewer is 8,000 square feet,
with a minimum road frontage of 70 feet per lot. All of the lots indicated on the
submitted sketch plan will meet the minimum lot size and road frontage requirements.

The applicant is proposing for fifteen (15) of the lots within Acacia Club Estates to front
directly upon Acacia Club Road. Randy Haes has examined the available site distance
for the driveways for the lots within Acacia Club Estates in question. Upon the
completion of this examination it was discovered that a driveway on proposed Lot 1 will
not have adequate site distance. Each driveway directly accessing Acacia Club Road
shall be required to meet both the minimum site distance and also driveway spacing
requirement as enumerated within the Road Standards. In order to eliminate the
maintenance issues that would be associated with the placement of fifteen (15) new
driveway culverts on Acacia Club Road; the Road & Bridge Department is requesting
that the applicant provide a new curb along the southeastern portion of Acacia Club
Road. The staff recommends that new curbed area and also the fifteen (15) driveway
entrances be allowed to be inspected by the Road & Bridge Department during each
phase of construction, in order to ensure full compliance with the Road Standards.

Per the provisions of the Taney County Road Standards, Acacia Club Estates is
considered to be a High Density Residential Subdivision, requiring a 50’ right-of-way
and a 31’ roadway width for all new subdivision roads. The road surface shall be either
asphalt or concrete.

Prior to Final Plat approval, the applicant shall either install all of the required public
improvements or provide an appropriate security in compliance with the provisions of
Article 8 of the Subdivision Regulations (Performance Bond from a qualified insurance
or bonding company, an Irrevocable Letter of Credit from a certified lending institution or
cash bond for 110% of the costs associated with the construction of the improvements).
M ajor Subdivision Staff R eport - Acacia Club E states - 2015-0009 Page 2
Per the provisions of the Subdivision Regulations, the applicant shall be required to
submit an Engineer’s Report that addresses storm drainage, water supply, wastewater
disposal and traffic analysis / street capacity, prior to the submission and approval of the
Final Plat.

The representative is proposing a green space area that will be maintained via a
property owners association. Per the provisions of the Subdivision Regulations if the
common open space is not dedicated to accepted for public use by the County
Commission, it shall be protected by legal arrangements, such as restrictive covenants
recorded in the Taney County Recorder of Deeds Office, in the form acceptable to the
Planning Commission and County Counselor.

Major Subdivision Staff R eport - Acacia Club E states - 2015-0009 Page 3
STAFF RECOMMENDATIONS:

If the Taney County Planning Commission approves the Preliminary Plat for the Acacia
Club Estates Subdivision, the following requirements shall apply, unless revised by the
Planning Commission:

1. Compliance with the provisions of the Taney County Subdivision Regulations, the
Taney County Development Guidance Code and the Taney County Road
Standards.
2. The applicant shall submit a report signed and sealed by a registered engineer, in
compliance with Article 6, Section 4 of the Subdivision Regulations, prior to
receiving Final Plat Approval. The Engineer’s report shall include the following
items:
a. Stormwater Drainage
b. Water Supply
c. Wastewater Disposal
d . Traffic Analysis / Street Capacity

3. The Final Plat shall be filed with the Taney County Recorder of Deeds within two
(2) years of the date of approval of the preliminary plat. The final plat may be
submitted in phases with each phase covering a portion of the approved
preliminary plat. If the final plat is submitted in successive phases the developer
will have one year after each phase to record the final plat of the next phase. The
Planning Commission may grant an extension of time for final plat submission if it
finds that the conditions on which the preliminary plat was approved have not
changed substantially.

4. All of the required improvements as enumerated within Article 8 of the Subdivision
Regulations shall either be installed or an appropriate security (Performance Bond
from a qualified insurance or bonding company, an Irrevocable Letter of Credit
from a certified lending institution or cash bond for 110% of the costs associated
with the construction of the improvements) shall be provided to the Planning
Department Office.

5. Compliance letters from the Missouri Department of Natural Resources, the
Taney County Regional Sewer District and the Taney County Road & Bridge
Department shall be provided to the Planning Department office.(Chapter VI-VII)

6. All roads within Acacia Club Estates shall be constructed in compliance with the
Taney County Road Standards. The applicant shall allow for full inspections of
each roadway during every phase of construction.

7. A new curb shall be installed by the applicant along the southeastern portion of

(15) driveway entrances shall be inspected by the Road & Bridge Department
during construction, in order to ensure full compliance with the Road Standards.

M ajor Subdivision Staff R eport - Acacia Club E states - 2015-0009 Page 4
 8. All driveways access points proposed to be located on existing County roads shall
be issued a Driveway Access Permit via the Taney County Road & Bridge
Department, prior to the creation of said driveway entrance points. Each driveway
directly accessing County maintained roadways shall be required to meet both the
minimum site distance and also driveway spacing requirements of the Taney
County Road Standards.

9. Division I Permits will be required for all applicable structures in the development
(Chapter 3 Sec. I Item B).

10. Prior to the issuance of Division I Permits, the applicants shall ensure that the
applicable sewer and water connections are in place.

11 .This Decision of Record is subject to all existing easements. All existing
easements shall be indicated on the Final Plat, including any existing sewer,
water and drainage easements.

12. This Decision of Record shall be filed with the Taney County Recorder of Deeds
Office within 120 days or the approval shall expire (Chapter II Item 6).
