bus stop meet the Type 3 standards. Please see our design standards here:
http://www. ridetransfort.com/img/site_specific/uploads/Final_Design_Standard
s.pdf. These standards also require the developer to upgrade the shelter and
other stop amenities to meet the new standard. You have the option of
purchasing the site amenities yourself, either through our vendor or through a
different vendor that meet the standards outlined, or you can pay Transfort a fee
to take care of that. I have estimates for the cost you would pay us and you can
decide how to proceed. I'm sure you will have questions, so please do not

06/06/2016: The response to this comment indicated that easements will be
dedicated by time of final plat, however, please note, "Letters of Intent' will be
required prior to hearing. These are required two items: 1) for the proposed
offsite storm pipe you plan to put in and 2) for use of the offsite private storm
pipes and detention ponds downstream of your site as these serve as part of
your outfall.
04/18/2016: Plat: The storm pipe outfall for the site will need to be in a drainage
easement. Since this easement is outside of the boundary of the plat it will need
to be dedicated by separate document. We will also require that at Letter of
Intent� be submitted prior to hearing that basically shows that the property
owner acknowledges your intent to dedicate an easement on their property and
that they are going to work with you to grant said easement during final the
design process.

In this case, a buffer that is an average of 50 feet from the ditch (rather than a
straight 50 feet in all locations) may be more appropriate. For ease of
maintenance and to ensure the buffer standards are met, I recommend
adjusting the NHBZ boundary to follow the edge of the southern parking lot and
