The dedication of this easement (and any easements) to the City requires deeds of dedication in an approved City format (the template will be emailed separately) along with a $250 fee for each easement, and county recordation costs in an amount to be determined. The required deed(s) of dedication will need to be in place prior to final plan approval of the project (after public hearing). Comment Number: 3 Comment Originated: 10/16/2012 10116/2012: The "10' Utility Easement" should be indicated as "Existing 10' Utility Easement". Comment Number: 4 Comment Originated: 10116/2012 10/16/2012: The City typically uses a "Utility Plan" as a construction plan set that is filed separately from the site plan and is approved by the City Engineer, requiring to be prepared by a licensed engineer and indicates the public infrastructure proposed for construction with the development. Does the "utility plan" submitted here have any associated public infrastructure associated with it, or are the utilities pertaining to the operations specific to Verizon Wireless? We may wish to have this sheet either incorporated into the site plan sheet and eliminate this sheet, or label the sheet different than "Utility Plan" to not confuse our typical approach with utility plans. Comment Number: 5 Comment Originated: 10/16/2012 10/16/2012: Why is the "Utility Plan" sheet using all the same notation of "W" to label telephone, gas, and chainlink fence? The information is unclear as a result. Please rectify. Comment Number: 6 Comment Originated: 10/16/2012 10/16/2012: The right-of-way existing for both Vine Drive and Shields Street appears to be sufficient abutting the property for the roadway classifications of these streets. Additional dedication for utility easement as well as obligation for roadway improvements to these streets may be required with future development/redevelopment of the parcel.

If that's the intended title of the project, I don't see this as a concern, though I'd suggest "Verizon Wireless FTC Fat Tire" might be of benefit to have the name tied to the wireless telecommunication use. (Note that this comment isn't intended to imply any approval towards the use of "Fat Tire" in the title, which for all I know may be subject to concerns of intellectual property of New Belgium Brewing Company.)
