Comment Number: 1 Comment Originated: 04/12/2016
05/20/2016: Because the applicant isn't sure exactly what will be stored in the
storage area yet, the screening as it’s shown now will be sufficient. Just be sure
the existing fencing is shown on the site plan along with the landscaping. Any
materials stored in the storage area must be completely screened from view. In
the future, should there be any complaints or issues, the owner may need to add
more screening.
05/16/2016: Please see comment from zoning regarding the required
screening of the storage area.
04/12/2016: What is the intended use of the asphalt area at the back of the
site? Additional screening may be required.
Comment Number: 6 Comment Originated: 05/20/2016
05/20/2016: After discussion at staff review, departments with outstanding
comments agreed that the project is close to being ready for hearing. I will
coordinate a final round of electronic review to address any outstanding
comments/issues prior to hearing.

Topic: Landscape Plans
Comment Number: 2 Comment Originated: 04/12/2016
05/16/2016: Thank you for including the interior landscaping calculation on the
landscape plan. Because the landscape islands near the overhead door
entrances have been removed, the landscape plan does not meet the interior
parking lot requirements. Have you considered removing one of the 20 parking
spaces to satisfy the interior landscaping requirement? If the site can not meet
the code requirement, a request for a modification of standard will be required.
04/12/2016: The response letter indicated that there is a calculation showing
that 6% of the parking lot interior is devoted to landscaping. I don't see that on
the landscape plan. Please include this calculation.

05/17/2016: Please schedule a pre-submittal meeting for this project.
Pre-Submittal meetings assist the designer/builder by assuring, early on in the
design, that the new projects are on track to complying with all of the adopted
City codes and Standards listed below. The proposed project should be in the
early to mid-design stage for this meeting to be effective. Applicants of new
projects should email scarter@fcgov.com to schedule a pre-submittal meeting.
Applicants should be prepared to present site plans, floor plans, and elevations
and be able to discuss code issues of occupancy, square footage and type of
construction being proposed.

05/18/2016: Please expand report narrative to explain the proposed scenario
with the northern detention pond. Will the outlet structure need to be modified?
If so, provide detail. Please also show proposed grading in this area.
04/12/2016: It is noted that Basin 1 will be sharing a detention basin with the
adjacent property. It doesn't appear that easement will be required as the
properties are owned by the same party. Please document the required volume
for the adjacent property or include in the basin sizing calculations.
Comment Number: 5 Comment Originated: 04/12/2016
05/18/2016: Comment still applies. Slight discrepancies are seen, likely due to
the equation used (see redlines).
04/12/2016: Please review the time of concentration and associated rainfall
intensities using in the runoff calculations.

05/18/2016: Please provide historic basin calculations to support the proposed

04/12/2016: What is sub-basin P1? It is seen in the calculations, but other
references remain unseen.

05/18/2016: Comment still applies.
04/12/2016: How was the designed outfall rate of 0.14 cfs/acre determined?
Please show calculation for 2-year historic runoff rate.

05/18/2016: Comment still applies.
04/12/2016: Please expand the drainage report narrative overall to give a
better understanding of the proposed development. A number of things are
currently unclear with the project including how the LID requirements are being
met and what is ultimately being proposed for the 2 detention basins. Are both
water quality and LID being proposed for the detention basin bottoms? Please
expand to help clarify the overall design.

04/12/2016: Please discuss and document how LID requirements are being

05/18/2016: Are any plantings proposed within the proposed rain gardens? It
appears that sod is proposed for the southern rain garden, please note that sod
cannot be used in this location and will need to be seeded if grass is desired.
Please also remove the weed barrier from the northern rain garden.
Comment Number: 16 Comment Originated: 05/18/2016
05/18/2016: Please provide a drainage easement for the proposed rain
gardens and detention basins at least up to the 100-year water surface
elevation.
Comment Number: 17 Comment Originated: 05/18/2016
05/18/2016: Overall, it appears that the proposed design is acceptable;
however, expanded narrative in the report and additional detail in the plans are
needed in order to better understand the proposed conditions and how the
system overall will function.

05/18/2016: I've noted that the service has been changed to 4" and can
connect to the main via wye. This requires a minimum slope of 2% (1% is
proposed).
04/12/2016: A 6" sanitary service connection into an 8" main requires either
connecting at a manhole or cutting in a tee.
