project is required 47 off street parking spaces. There are 41 spaces on the site, then six
addifional spaces are required. This means that six of the the spaces on the lot to the east

04/03/2012.
The following Forestry comments are offered
A preliminary walk occurred with the City Forester to review existing trees and impact from the
proposed construction.
1. Provide in the next submittal a table listing all of the existing significant trees. Each significant
tree should be numbered and include information on species, size, condition, and intent to
either remove, transplant or protect. Also provide in the table the number of mitigation trees
required for any significant tree proposed to be removed and for trees to be protected.
Required mitigation trees should be upsized based on tree type
Shade Tree 3 inch caliper
Ornamental Tree 2.5 inch caliper
Evergreen Tree 8 feet height
A table has been added to LP101 outlining existing trees and mitigation requirements. In addition all mitigation trees will follow land
use code requirements.
2. Please provide a statement of why existing significant trees would need to be removed on
the current proposed plan. Existing significant trees need to be retained to the extent
reasonably feasible. Where it is not feasible to protect and retain then they need to be
replaced with upsized mitigation trees.
Because of the proposed building footprint, minimum density requirements for project feasibility, and existing site constraints and conditions
some of the existing significant trees will require removal and mitigation. All mitigation trees will follow land use code requirements.
3. Required mitigation trees should be kept on site if possible and can be used to meet
landscape requirements. Offsite mitigation needs to occur within one quarter mile.
All mitigation trees will he kept on site.
4. The proposed sidewalk running north and south on the west side of the east honeylocust in
front of the building appears to be only a few feet from the trunk of the tree. Pursue a design for
vthe walk that minimizes excavation into the root system, and or shifts the walk to the west further
away from the tree.
The sidewalk west of the Honeylocust on the north side of the building has been revised to angle northwest away from the existing tree
as much as possible.

04/04/2012. Just curious as to why the subdivision plat creates lot lines that results in equal lot
sizes but do not correspond to any "as -built" condition? The site, landscape and construction
plans show this line but does not label it, while also showing a more prominent (thicker and
dashed) line without indicating what this line is intended to represent (a "PDP" boundary?)
There needs to be coordination/venliication on the intent of the lines shown on the drewirt�s.
The rcit line corresponds to a previous property split, and matches current County parcels and a dressing

04/04/2012 The proposal of an 8 foot attached sidewalk is of question. The City's view is that
(per the Conceptual Review comments) an attached sidewalk matching the Campus West
Redevelopment is the ideal specification for an attached sidewalk. This sidewalk dimension for
the Campus West Redevelopment is 12 feet and ideally this proposal should match this width
(and is also the proposed width of the redevelopment property next door). The site visit with
Northern and Brinkman identified some potential restriction points to meeting the ideal width:
the tree in front of the Wendy's and a light pole along with a fire hydrant. We were realizing that
the tree in front of Wendy's would likely need to narrow from an ideal width in order to not
impact the tree but thought that the 12 foot width could be likely achieved along the rest of the
corridor The light pole and fire hydrant, while being existing restncbon points, we did not
necessarily conclude that these appurtenances could stay as is. With the drawing submitted it
shows that with the 8 fool attached sidewalk, the light pole would be fully in the sidewalk and
the fire hydrant is partially in the sidewalk as well. The City would conclude that these
appurtenances should be moved as they're awkwardly situated in the 8 foot attached sidewalk,
which would have the design then look towards more of the ideal sidewalk width. (Doug Martine
with Light and Power noted that the cost to move the pole so irs not within/abutting the sidewalk
is no different to achieve 2 foot separation from the proposed 8 foot sidewalk to vs. a more
ideal sidewalk width with further separation.) We would need to evaluate any proposal that does
not incorporate the 12' attached sidewalk through a variance request in coordination with
Planning. See response to Current Planning Site Plan Comment Number: 3, above. Sidewalk on north side of
properly has been revised to reflect changes that were discussed with City staff.
Comment Number: 6 Comment Originated: 04/04/2012
04/04/2012: The proposed 9 feet of additional right-of-way wouldn't be needed in its entirety.
The amount of right-of-way needed would only need to coincide with the back of sidewalk
ultimately decided to and agreed upon to be built per ID#3 (with the exception that Light and
Power and Water/Wastewater would need additional easement or right-of-way for relocated
appurtenances). Adhering to the 9 feet of additional right-of-way would appear to be
problematic in that part of the Werdy's patio would fall within this additional right-of-way.
Seer ed tat S of additional right-of-way is being dedicated to coincide with the new ba or wal
Commerr� umger: i� (omman��ngma�ed: 04/0412012
04/0412012: Both drive approaches would need to have additional concrete added in order for
the sidewalk to lead to a concrete section, not partial concrete/asphalt. The access ramp
leading to a curb for the eastern exit driveway is awkward as well with the curb needing to be
pulled back.
Concrete has been added at both drive locations, each extending to the back of the pedestrian crossing

04/03/2012: The development at 1401 W. Elizabeth is currently in the development review
process and proposing a 12' sidewalk. As proposed, the firehydrant is abutting the sidewalk
and needs to be 2' from the walk and the existing metal light pole in located within the
sidewalk. Both the hydrant and the lightpole should be moved back and the sidewalk width
increased. While the full 12' walk may not be an option, we are suggesting that 10' may be
Jmore appropriate in this case. A variance request is still required for a 10' walk.
See revised Site Plan. A formal variance request will be submitted to Engmn nng Development Review following the
PDP public hearing to document the final sidewalk design.
