Notes have been added per the comment and redlines. Topic. Utility Plans Number: 80 Created: 4/ 10/2007 [4/ 10/071 Will the existing storm drainage junction box need to be adjusted at the rim in order to meet the new grading? The existing rim elevation is 27.13 while the new rim elevation is 29.40. Please provide an adjustment detail. The detail has been added (to the Storm Profile Sheet). How will the inlet within the future development phase be protected in the interim phase. Protection needs to be mainly vegetative. Please extend the mulching/seeding time line for Phase 2 on erosion control construction sequence table. Changes have been made to the phasing plan and the erosion control plan to address this inlet. Please add a detail for the proposed sidewalk chases. Detail D-10 is on sheet 13 of 16. Silt fence delineation is hard to find since it is overlapping other labels. Please clarify. The silt fence lines have been moved to reduce the overlap. Department: Stormwater-Water-Wastewater Issue Contact: Roger Buffington Topic.

[1/10/07] EMERGENCY ACCESS EASEMENT: Willa blanket EAE be workable, or should it be revised to specific drive aisles? The fire lane shall be visible by painting and signage, and maintained unobstructed at all times. The fire lane must meet the following general requirements: ❑ Be designed as a flat, hard, all-weather driving surface (asphalt or concrete) capable of supporting fire apparatus weights. Compacted road base shall be used only for temporary fire lanes or at construction sites. ❑ Have appropriate maintenance agreements that are legally ❑ Maintain the required minimum width of 20 feet throughout the length of the fire lane. 97UFC 901.2.2.1; 901.3; 901.4.2; 902.2.1 The EAE has been removed. Number: 32 Created: 1 / 10/2007 [4/11/071 External to the site, there are 7 fire hydrants on Iowa, Illinois, Limon and Custer, so no fire hydrants will be required to be added on the public -street side of the buildings. Internally, in the parking lot, we will require only one fire hydrant. This fire hydrant needs to be located on a suitable traffic island where it will not be exposed to damage from vehicular traffic. If the hydrant is located within a 25-foot inside turning radius of the drive aisles, it shall be protected by approved bollards. Please run turning templates (semi -tractor trailer trucks) to ensure clearance. The four -foot distance from the curb that was mentioned at Staff Review today is not the standard PFA uses. Finally, fire hydrants are required to have 42 inches of clearance (circumference) around the hydrant, which applies to light poles, vegetation (other than ground cover), etc. [ 1 / 10/071 FIRE HYDRANTS: Due to the proximity of the two fire hydrants in the parking lot to vehicle traffic, the hydrants shall be protected by a suitable number and location of protective bollards. One fire hydrant has been shown within the site. The location of this hydrant was proposed to Carrie and accepted. Because of its location, bollards are not required.

Number: 76 Created: 4/9/2007 [4/9/07] Please provide a barricade after Phase I construction is complete that would block off the driveway access to Phase II.

This rack has apparently been eliminated. It really should remain to provide accessible bike parking for the buildings on Lots 1 & 2. Nothing (landscaping, utilities) would appear to preclude this bike rack. The bike rack has been provided. Number: 89 Created: 4/ 18/2007 [4/ 18/07] The 2 crosswalks in the northerly 8' wide walk (just south of Lots 2 & 10) should be constructed of concrete. This is the public walkway between developments in Rigden Farm. The crosswalks are shown as concrete pavement. Number: 90 Created: 4/ 18/2007 f4/ 18/07] It would be beneficial to show better line (weight) differentiation between the lot lines, the buildings, and sidewalks on the Site & Landscape Plans. This has been adjusted. Department: Engineering Issue Contact: Susan Joy Topic: General Number: 68 Created: 4/9/2007 [4/9/07] Please add a note to all of the plan sets stating that the City and Utility companies approved the location of the trash enclosures within the blanket utility easement. A good place for this note on the utility plan set would be under line 48 of the General Notes. You can word this note any way you wish, just want to make sure that you won't have trouble later at the time of building permit. Chad - do you think it would be appropriate to put this note on the plat as well? Page I
