3. The 100-year frequency adjustment factor should be applied to the detention
calculations.
RESPONSE:
4. Calculations are needed to verify the volume provided by the proposed detention pond
grading.
RESPONSE:
5. Emergency spillways are needed for both detention ponds.
RESPONSE:
6. Drainage easements are needed for the detention ponds.
RESPONSE:
Erosion Control Comments
1. The dust abatement paragraph (6.4) of the erosion control report needs to say how this
can be accomplished.
2. The paragraph on permanent stabilization (6.7) of the erosion control report needs to
state that reseeding and mulching will be installed immediately, the vegetative cover
being derived from that. The. way the paragraph reads now, it can too easily be
interpreted as meaning nothing needs to be installed for 1-'/2 years.
3. The report must include performance standard, effectiveness, and escrow calculations.
Please refer to the redline report and plan for additional review comments.

1. Detention of the half streets is needed. It appears that runoff from Rule Drive
upstream of the site can be routed through the on -site detention pond.
RESPONSE:
2. More details are needed on the improvements to the existing swale along the east side
of the site. Provide cross -sections of the improved swale for locations of different cross -
sections. More information on the proposed grading of the swale is needed. The east
side of the Swale should be improved to side slopes no greater than 4:1. The swale must

Comments continued from the sheet 1...
Sheet 2 of 5: Utility Plan
X Please enlarge the text on the plan view. It is very difficult to read.
X Please provide a cross-section of both Lemay Avenue and Rule Drive.
X Please show the ROW dimensions for Lemay Avenue and Rule Drive.
X Please reference all details used.
X Please modify the pedestrian connection between Lot 1 and Lot 2. 1 don't
think that the City wants to direct pedestrians into the front of parked cars.
Provide a better pedestrian -friendly connection to the building.
X Please provide curve information to the curb returns at the entrance to the
site.
X You may want to meet with the PFA to discuss the fire truck access into
the site. Talking with Ron Gonzales, he wasn't too "thrilled" with the traffic
circle feature at the front of the development.
X The portions of the sidewalk that are not contained within the ROW will
need to be contained within a pedestrian access easement.
X The saw -cut lines need to be either in the middle of the travel lane or
along the edge of the travel lane.
Sheet 4 of 5: Drainage and Erosion Control Plan
X It seems as though the cross-section for Lemay (A_A) is missing.. Please
provide and label.
X I'm concerned with the placing the storm sewer under the building. Can
this lead to problems down the road, i.e. leaks, etc.
Sheet 5 of 5: Details
X Please modify the driveway approach detail. It currently doesn't match
what is being proposed.
