08/26/2014: The dimensioning is shown, but no lines are shown which makes it difficult to
decipher. Hasa layer gotten turned off?
01/15/2014: Sht 27: Please add some dimensions to the painted splitter island to guide the
placement of the yellow side lines (labeled as A) in the roadway. Dimension the distance
between the ends of the splitter island at the Rbt and at the X-walk. Dimension one side of
those yellow side stripe ends from a base point such as the curb face, flowline, street
centerline, etc.. All of this is due to the City isn't installing much development striping anymore
therefore we've found we need to provide some minimal design info for outside contractors on
these mini-Rbt characteristics.

Previous comment number 4 from 1/15/14 is continued. Proposed street light locations are
shown along Avondale but the 40 foot separation for canopy shade trees or 15 foot separation
for ornamental trees is not met. Adjust canopy shade trees to 40 feet from the lights and
explore if an ornamental such as Chanticleer Pear might be used closer to the lights to provide
greater street tree density.

Explore placing additional street trees between the sidewalk and curb in these locations. As
part of the evaluation along Avondale as mentioned in number 2 and 3 below also explore the
placement of an ornamental tree such as Chanticleer pear at 15 feet from the proposed street
light locations.
1. Along Drive Triangle at the north most portion of the project.
2. Along the north side of Avondale in parkway areas to the west and east of where the
currently proposed 5 street trees are shown.
3. Along the south side of Avondale in the parkway to the east of the last proposed street tree.

At the temporary turn around would there be a benefit of adding a group of upright form spruce,
pine or juniper along the side of unit 6 to block headlights from cars that are negotiating a
turnaround at this location?

Please provide further details for the "Emergency Access Only with Gate" portion of the EAE
on the north end of the property. Prior discussions covered roll over curbs, gate design, and
surfacing materials however I'm not finding this information provided on the current set of plans.
I will need this information (including gate design) added to the plans.

01/15/2014: Please provide cross -sections for the to be constructed Avondale Road along the
property at 50 foot intervals. Of particular interest is the cross slope at the eastern end of the
property as the crown of the roadway appears to transition out and would need to be looked at
closer with review of the cross sections. If ultimately agreed to, mill limits would need to be
indicated on the plans showing how much asphalt would need to be removed by future
development with the extension of the roadway to the east (and the corresponding escrow that
would be needed).

08/27/2014: Please ensure that the existing access ramp at the northern end of Triangle Drive
abutting the property is also modified and provides truncated dome detection in accordance
with LCUASS drawing 1607.
01/15/2014: The response letter indicates that a note was added to the drawings to indicate the
rebuilding of the existing access ramp at the north end of the site along Triangle Drive for ADA
and current City code compliance. I'm not finding this on the drawings, can it be pointed out? It
should be pointed out on the horizontal control plan on Sheet 12.

Comment Originated: 01/15/2014
08/27/2014: Under the premise that Planning/Zoning is okay with the future landscape shown on
Sheet 6 without irrigated turf past the turnaround, I'm okay with not installing the sidewalk to the
property boundary. This detail should reflect the extension of the sidewalk though, so it's
understood that this would need to occur. There still needs to be some indication as to what is
to be installed in between the sidewalk and the curb within the turnaround in the interim. Is the
entire turnaround built in asphalt, including in between the sidewalk and the driveover curb, with
the sidewalk built in concrete in between?
01/15/2014: Please relocate the tree on the north side of Avondale Road that is at the eastern
boundary of the site just east of the temporary turnaround. It should not be in the path of the
future extension of the sidewalk. In general I'm trying to recall again why the sidewalk on the
north side of Avondale cannot be extended to eastern boundary of the property as was done
on the south side? The extension of the sidewalk by future development would be disruptive to
the property and irrigation would need to be retrofitted to provide irrigation that does not irrigate
on the sidewalk.

08/27/2014: The site plan needs to depict the emergency access gate as being separate a
minimum of 2 feet from the sidewalk and that it swings open onto private property, not onto
right-of-way.

01/15/2014: The cover sheet indicates the creation of LID sheets under separate cover. I would
prefer that if these sheets need to be approved and filed with the City that they are included as
part of this set. (Or alternatively, if okay with Stormwater, these sheets can be indicated as part
the planning set.)
Comment Number: 9 Comment Originated: 01/15/2014
08/27/2014: The added cross -sections should label the cross -slopes. I still need to obtain
verification from the cross -slopes as to what portion of road can remain and meet City
standards, vs. what would need to be milled out with the extension of Avondale. As submitted,
I would indicate that with STA 6+50 having the last cross slope shown to be at 2%, and our
patching requirements having that street repair is perpendicular to the flowline, we would
require that the removal of asphalt to extend the street start at the edge of the proposed inlet
along the left flowline, resulting on a local street potion frontage of 10 feet on the north side, and
25 feet on the south side (35 feet of local street frontage that would need to paid for in total.)
