Stewart 8s Associates Response: Remised t ","add tnforncation:
2. The BFE listed for the structure is incorrect. The BFE must be taken at
the most upstream end of the building. For this structure that is the
northwest corner. The FEMA BFE is 4976.3. Therefore, the floor
elevation must be raised to a minimum of 4977.8 to be the required 1.5
feet above BFE. Please review and revise plans and report as necessary.
3. Critical facilities are not allowed in the floodplain. This includes storage
or use of hazardous, flammable, toxic, or water reactive materials. See
the definition in Chapter 10 of City Code. Please describe in the
drainage report that there will not be any materials meeting the critical
facilities definition stored or used in this building. If there are any
questions about material storage, please submit a copy of the
Hazardous materials impact analysis and material safety data sheets for
those items.
4. The NGS benchmark listed on the plans has an incorrect elevation
listed. According the City's Vertical Control Network, it should be
4974.64. Please review and revise plans, including topography, as
needed.
5. Please show the City floodplain boundary on the grading plan or on a
separate floodplain plan as well as on the site plan.

[9/8/05] Street trees must be included on Hickory St. Existing plans do
not meet spacing requirements. In order to accommodate pedestrians, the
8' sidewalk may need to be widened if tree grates are to be used. Please
coordinate/meet with us if you wish to use tree grates. You can also
provide the standard section with 6' parkway and 5' sidewalk. If the
sidewalk extends beyond the ROW with either design, an access easement
will be needed for the overlatmine area.
