Providing only drip irrigation to trees with no other irrigation to turf will not sustain
street trees long term as they grow and mature. Providing spray irrigation to the turf
in parkways appears the best way to provide for the future irrigation of City street
trees in parkways.
01 /14/2015:
Prairie Turf (Reduced Irrigation) is indicated in the perimeter parkways. Parkway turf
needs to receive irrigation by a pop-up spray or equivalent system. This should be
clarified by possibly describing it as Irrigated Prairie Turf. Providing for reduced
irrigation in landscape areas is a great concept but the irrigation of street trees still
needs to be adequately provided for. Significant reductions in turf irrigation would
limit the growth and survival of street trees.
Provide specific information on how irrigation with this concept will be adequate to
establish and sustain street tree growth. Incorporate information and or design
elements into the project design plan that clearly defines the level of irrigation that is
needed and will be provided for the street trees.

01/13/2016: The placement of rain gardens within utility easements behind the
right-of-way does not constitute Engineering approval for its placement, though the
slope and material type immediately behind the public street sidewalks need to be
verified for being gradual, and not a "hole" or with rough media behind the walk. I
would question the implications on the integrity of the rain gardens being maintained
over time with any utility installation work occurring in the future within the general
utility easement.

01/13/2016: The ultimate Lemay Avenue design shows the need for offsite
easement to construct Lemay Avenue on the west side. This is just for reference to
Engineering Capital for the future construction.

01/13/2016: Existing Lemay Avenue design with the interim right turn lane into a
right only movement into the site needs to have a roadway design with grading, spot
elevations, cross slopes of the new pavement against the existing, etc. Additionally,
as signing and striping plan is needed, showing the new lane width against the
existing, parameters used for taper and storage, radius for the right turn, etc.

01/13/2016: It appears that Sheets C911 through C914 is profiling the centerline.
Please add flowline plan and profiles as well. Ideally instead of profiling the
centerline, there would be a flowline profile against both "flowlines" of the center
median.

01/13/2016: The cross sections for the roundabout should be showing flowline

01/13/2016: For the ties in points into existing Lincoln, it appears that the western
edge tie in creating an angle point, whereas a radius is introduced on the eastern
edge, which reduces the appearance of a kink in the roadway. I'd like to see a radius
reflected on the western edge of the tie-in point on the south side of the roadway
with existing curb and gutter.

01/13/2016: Please provide flow arrows to go along with the spot elevation on

it directs to medians needing inlets, etc.

01/1312016: On Sheet C516 a couple of thoughts regarding access ramps:
- There's a ramp facing east on the south side of Cottage Drive and the minor
arterial. I don't believe this is needed, as there's a crossing and a receiving ramp
along the north leg of this intersection.
- The access ramps on the south side of the Duff Drive/minor arterial intersection
don't appear to align with each other across the minor arterial.
- I'm wondering if there's an opportunity and support for an access ramp on the
north leg of Webster Avenue/minor arterial intersection with a pedestrian refuge
island midway through the splitter island? Perhaps this crossing negate the need for
a crossing at the north side of the Cottage Drive/minor arterial intersection.
Comment Number: 185 Comment Originated: 01/13/2016
01/13/2016: On Sheets C517 and C518 also pertaining to access ramps:
- Please ensure that at the southeast corner of the Buckingham-Duff/realigned
Lemay intersection that an access ramp is built heading north, with a receiving
access ramp at the northeast corner of this intersection. It would seem that this
could be built in the ultimate condition today within the limits of the curb and gutter
section for Buckingham -Duff.
- The mid -block receiving access ramp on the north side of Buckingham -Duff
doesn't appear to align with the access ramp/sidewalk on the south side.
- The plans should indicate that the aforementioned receiving ramps along the
north side of Buckingham -Duff being built now. The sidewalk on the north side isn't
required with this project, (but can be built with this project) -- in its current iteration it
is confusing to discern what is being built along the north side.
- Sheet C518 should be showing at least the receiving access ramps along the
north side of the Buckingham-Duff/minor arterial intersection. Sidewalk again along
the north side isn't required, but would be nice; what is to be built north of the curb
and gutter along the north side should be clarified.

01/13/2016: On the plan and profile sheets, please ensure that the profile lines use
a heavier lineweight for the 0 and 5 foot elevations, it's difficult to verify elevations
without the variation of lineweight at the major intervals.

01/13/2016: The cross sections for Duff Drive show grading past the platted
right-of-way for Duff Drive along the north and would require an offsite grading
easement. Note that the right-of-way from STA 27+50 on is not depicted for the
north side as well as the south side east of the new minor arterial. Offside grading
easement might be needed for the south side of Duff Drive east of this property.

01/13/2016: Sheet ST5's Storm Drain Line 8 shows less than the minimum cover
required, and in general is the existing storm pipe that this line ties into, problematic
with its elevation in relation to Lemay Avenue? Existing ground is higher than
proposed as depicted on the profile view, with a cut occurring, though C502 shows
a fill instead of a cut in this area. Is there a profile for this existing line shown in
relation to finished grade along Lemay Avenue? C502 should be depicting this pipe
under the roadway and illustrate whether the pipe itself is problematic with the
ultimate Lemay improvements.

01/13/2016: In general, it appears that much of the previous comments pertain to
conflicts with existing water lines (and potentially an existing storm line as well).
Given the reworking of Lincoln that will occur with the project, and the reworking of
Lemay in the future, presumably by the City, I would be curious to understand
whether some of the existing utility infrastructure should be modified and/or
relocated, since the corresponding roadways will have similar realignment, which
could better allow compliance with street standard cover requirements.

01/13/2016: On Sheet C504, please change "future overpass" to "future potential

01/13/2016: On C513, the access ramps crossing both sides of the drive aisle isn't

strips, and sidewalks). Also the parameters for taper and storage of turn lanes

01/13/2016: Sheet ST1 shows the 48" RCP having less than the minimum cover
needed across Webster Avenue, with a depth of less than 2'. If the concern is
maintaining the 18" from the water line, perhaps twin pipes and/or and elliptical pipe
can be explored to get additional cover from Webster.

01/13/2016: Sheet ST2's Storm Drain Line 1-2 appears to have a minimum cover
issue across the to be named minor arterial (shows about 2.5' at its shallowest).
The roadway above this crossing appears to be concrete per Sheet C910 as part of
the approach for the roundabout, and subject to verification from our Director, I
believe can be supported..

01/13/2016: Sheet ST4's Storm Drain Line 3-3 has less than 2 feet of cover over

appears to be a concrete roadway, I'm concerned that at 1.5 feet, we may have
depth concerns.

01/13/2016: Sheet ST4's Storm Drain Line 5 has at its shallowest about 1 foot of

01/13/2016: Sheet ST5's Future Storm Drain Line 7 appears to be situated to have

to maintaining 18" of clearance from an existing water line.
