Topic: Stormwater- Modifications to the Richard's Lake original
detention outlet
Number: 57 Created: 5/9/2006
[5/9/06] Since this project proposes to release into the Richard's Lake
outlet outlet pipe, please show how the first filing pond outlet system will
be modified to remove the retention and retrofitted into a detention outlet.
Topic: Stormwater- Release into Richard's Lake
Number 59 Created: 5/9/2006,
[5/9/06] It seems from the grading Plan that there will be some release
from the back of the lots along Brightwater Drive with no treatment, the
grading does not show how these will be conveyed into a water quality
treatment area prior to being released into Richard's Lake property.
Topic: Stormwater- Detention Pond Grading
Number: 61 Created: 5/9/2006
[5/9/06] The design of Detention Pond 1 shows two tiered walls
surrounding the whole pond. -This design will need to provide maintenance
access. Retaining walls will need a structural design at final, and it is
strongly suggested that the pond be appropriately landscaped to enhance its
aesthetics.
Topic: Stormwater- Detention Pond Variance Request
Number: 62 Created: 5/9/2006
[5 / 9 % 06] The variance request to allow for the water quality portion of the
detention to be included in the quality volume would be allowed as long as a
full foot of freeboard is still provided. Right now even with that variance
only 0.86 ft of freeboard would be left.
Topic: Stormwater- Grading
Number: 83 Created: 5/ 12/2006
[5/ 12 / 06] Please make sure all grading is contained on -site especially for
the north area along the Sierra Monte Heights subdivision as any grading in
that area would be very controversial.
Topic: Stormwater- Off-site.Flows
Number: 84 Created: 5/ 12/2006
[5/ 12/06] Please document in the report how the off -site areas that are
contributing flows toward this development were calculated.

public access easements.
Number: 87 Created: 5/ 15/2006
[5/ 15/06] Need ramps at the trail crossing of Navigator.
Number: 88 Created: 5/ 15/2006

[5/ 15/06] Can we get the ramp configurations at Brightwater/Fleet and
Brightwater/Longboat to provide a straight crossing of the cross streets?
See redlines for clarity.

Topic: Stormwater- Ditch Company Approval
Number: 56 Created: 5/9/2006
[5/9/06] Any drainage into the Richard's Lake will need to receive approval
from the ditch company that owns that reservoir. Drainage tying into the
Richard's Lake outfall, will need approval from the Windsor Reservoir Ditch
Company.
Topic: Stormwater- Drainage Design
Number: 60 Created: 5/9/2006
[5/9/06]. The SWMM model used to design the, pond was only divided into 3
basins, the widths used in that SWMM model are very large resulting in
smaller detention volumes. Please use realistic overland flow lengths, as the
ones currently used are very large.
Page 11
Number: 96 Created: 5/ 15/2006
[5/ 15/06] Scaling of the circulating roadway width indicates about 20-21'.
The City recommendation is to hold the width no greater than 16' .fl-apron
edge, unless justification is provided to consider wider.
Number: 97 Created: 5/ 15/2006
[5/ 15/06] Traffic has safety concerns with the proposed medians at the
intersection of Morningstar and Turnberry. These wide medians are
problematic for left turning traffic as well as thru movement traffic. Left
turns have increased ability to conflict and have a reduced ability to see
advancing thru vehicles while trying -to make their left turn. The medians
are acceptable further into the project but they need to be significantly
reduced, or eliminated at the Turnberry intersection.
Number: 98 Created: 5/ 15/2006
[5/ 15/06] Morningstar does not meet any of the LCUASS local residential
spec's. As such Traffic is basically ok with the median configuration (except
at the Turnberry intersection), but believe the parking should be
inset/recessed parking, versus an on -street configuration. The proposed
configuration is wide and we would prefer to see more curb line and the
crosswalk locations at a position to the left of the parking area, to improve
visibility between motorists and pedestrians.
Number: 99 Created: 5/ 15/2006
[5/ 15/06] Per Fig 8-1 LCUASS and TIS Fig. 8'data, Turnberry @
Brightwater and Turnberry @ Morningstar require north bound left turn
lanes.
Number: 100 - Created: 5/ 15/2006
[5/ 15/06] Per Fig. 8-1 LCUASS, any arterial intersection requires left turn
lanes. This development is increasing the north bound left turn volume 6
fold at Douglas Rd and Turnberry.. As such this development should provide
the left turn lane or provide appropriate funding towards the future left turn .
lane at Douglas Rd.
Number: 101 Created: 5/ 15/2006
[5/ 15/06] This project has completed its intersection capacity reservation
at Lemay and Vine.

[5/ 10/061 The "private drives" do not meet the definition of private drive as
specified in the FCLUC, and in single-family developments, a private drive
can connect to only one public street or private street.
Number: 78 Created: 5/ 10/2006
[5/ 10/06] Fire lanes are required in Blocks 9, 10 and 11. Minimum width
is 20 feet and this must be maintained throughout the length of the fire
lane. The fire lanes shall be visible by painting and signage, and maintained
unobstructed. The fire lanes must 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. The fire lanes are required to be designated on the plat
as an Emergency Access Easement.
Number: 79 Created: 5/ 10/2006
[5/ 10/06] The roundabout at Morningstar, and Brightwater must have
rollover curbs.
Department: Traffic Operations Issue Contact: Ward Stanford
Topic: Traffic
Number: 93 Created: 5/ 15/2006
[5/ 15/06] Per the Street Master Plan, Brightwater is the collector street and
the portion of Morningstar west of the Parkside Dr is a Collector. The TIS
indicates that more traffic will enter/exit the subdivision at Morningstar and
Turnberry than at'Brightwater and Turnberry. The TIS needs to include the
expected volumes on Morningstar (east and west of the Roundabout), and
on the southern portion of Brightwater.
Number: 94 Created: 5/ 15/2006
[5/ 15/06] The TIS indicates the possibility of some streets being "over
classified" and a re-evaluation may be appropriate. At this time and per the
City Traffic Engineer, the City is not adverse to the developer doing the work
to achieve the re-classification. The City will act as the review and approval
entity if the project development team chooses to undertake the
reclassification work.
Number: 95 Created: 5/ 15/2006
[5/ 15/06] Per the_ City Traffic Engineer, the Roundabout (Rbt) shown
internal to the project is too large. The inscribe diameter should not be
greater than 100'. The large size promotes faster circulation speeds. Speed
profiles and fastest path drawings should be developed and submitted with
the revised Rbt.

[5/2/06] Before specific comments can be made, I suggest that we have a.
utility coordination meeting on this project with all participating utilities.
There appears to be several areas that could cause some conflict. We will.
also need to know what type of buildings are going in and possible meter
locations. Also, is this project going to be built all at one time or phased?

Topic: Grading
Number: 27 Created: 5/ 8/ 2006 .
[5/8/06] Slopes can not exceed 4:.1 and grades at the back of walk must be
flat to nearly flat for a minimum of 2'. Some areas have extremely steep
slopes shown (not labeled) and may require a retaining wall. Utilities are
another concern (no structures are allowed in utility easements). All lots
less than 50' will need to show the driveway and utility locations on the plan
sets to make sure everything fits, including the street tree. A utility
coordination has been set for 2pm next Wednesday, the 17th of May to work
out all the issues. All items must be resolved and approved by the utilities
prior to going to hearing.

[5/8/06] There is a trail shown on the Site Plan parallel to Barnswallow
Circle in Tract F that does not appear on the utility plans.
Number: 20 Created: 5/ 8/ 2006
[5/8/06] A sidewalk is shown to the north from Tract A but doesn't show
what it connects to on the utility plans. The Site plan vaguely.shows an
equestrian trail but nothing is dimensioned and it is not shown where the
trail goes to the east.
Where does the existing equestrian trail go? It disappears at the northeast
corner of the property (site plan), does not appear on the utility plans except
for "kind of, sort of on sheet 12 which is the grading plan. In addition,
there appears to be an existing trail on the north side of lots 112-114 and a
driveway of some sort onto Turnberry Road. Is this being realigned? If not,
will need access easements on these lots. This driveway may need to be
closed. Will need more info before a determination can be made.
