Comment Number: 1 Comment Originated: 08/25/2015
08/25/2015: Based on discussions with other staff and the City Attorney's Office, the proposal does not
qualify for a Minor Amendment due to the expiration of the plans approved in 1997. Although a Minor
Amendment was considered in 2006, those plans have also lapsed.

08/25/2015: The attached sidewalk along the private drive does not appear to be very wide or in good
repair. The Learning Experience plans to the north show a 5' walk from back of curb, detaching at the
intersection to provide the new ramp detail. I would suggest rebuilding the walk to match the Learning
Center.
United Civil Design Group, LLC (UC) The sidewalk is shown to be removed and replaced with a 5’ walk.
Comment Number: 3 Comment Originated: 08/25/2015
08/25/2015: Please look at the trash enclosure detail and provide adequate recycling space and walkin
access. Staff is typically requiring that, in order to provide adequate recycling space, that the recycling
space provided be equal to the trash dumpster size, typically with two dumpsters side by side for trash and
recycling. The enclosure will likely need to be enlarged to accommodate this.
VFLA (V) A trash enclosure is provided and will house a dumpster for trash and recycling. Gates will be
provided for the trash collector and a smaller gate for daily use. Refer to the exterior elevations for
additional details.

08/25/2015: The proposed building is right on the edge of the utility easement to the east, and The Learning
Center is showing a new storm pipe and manhole on the west side of this easement. Given how tight this
area is there may be concerns with the roofline and foundation encroaching into the easement. Monument
sign shown is on top of the manhole.
United Civil Design Group, LLC (UC) The building footprint is located outside of the easement and the
roof overhang and foundations will also be located outside of the easement.
Comment Number: 5 Comment Originated: 08/25/2015
08/25/2015: In the parking lot, the walkway from the street needs to be 6 feet in width, or 7 feet if
overhanging parking spaces that are 17 feet in depth.
United Civil Design Group, LLC (UC) The sidewalk is 7’ in width to accommodate the parking overhang.
Comment Number: 6 Comment Originated: 08/28/2015
08/28/2015: On the submittal plans, show the parking lot interior demarcation line and list the amount of
required parking landscape space. As part of the parking lot interior landscaping, tree stocking and canopy
shade tree requirements (one canopy shade tree per 150 sf of internal landscape area), please consider
adding a landscape island in front of the west entrance facade.
Ripley Design, Inc. (RDI) A landscape island has been added.

canopy shade trees, be of length greater than eight (8) feet in the smallest dimension, include at least
eighty (80) square feet of ground area per tree to allow for root aeration, and have raised concrete curbs.

08/28/2015: Please be aware of LUC requirement that Landscaped Islands, to the maximum extent
feasible, shall be used to define parking lot entrances, the ends of all parking aisles and the location and
pattern of primary internal access drives, and to provide pedestrian refuge areas and walkways. Based on
this, please add landscape space at the end of the parking aisle adjacent to the trash enclosure.
United Civil Design Group, LLC (UC) Landscaped space adjacent to the trash enclosure has been added.

The existing utility infrastructure on Boardwalk currently exceeds maximum fire code
spacing requirements for hydrant separation. In addition, a hydrant is required within
300' of the proposed building. Although there may be another hydrant in the area
meeting the 300' requirement, the fire marshal will need to determine if a hydrant on
the NE corner of this site will also be required.
(Updated 8/26/2015: The fire marshal is out of the office until the week of 8/31/2015.
The determination of adding another hydrant at the intersection will be delayed until
after his return. Please contact me with any questions. Jim Lynxwiler)
