10/14/2021: INFORMATION ONLY:
Based on the area of disturbance State permits for stormwater will be required
since the site is over an acre and should be obtained prior to commencement of
Construction Activities on this site.
The City Manager’s development review fee schedule under City Code 7.5-2
was updated to include fees for Erosion Control and Stormwater Inspections.
As of January 1st, 2021, these fees will be collected on all projects for such
inspections.
5
The Erosion Control fees are based on; the number of lots, the total site
disturbance, the estimated number of years the project will be active and the
Stormwater Inspection Fees are based on the number of LID/WQ that are
designed for on this project.
Based on the proposed site construction associated with this project we are
assuming 1 lots, 2.42 acres of disturbance, 2 years from demo through build out
of construction and an additional 3 years till full vegetative stabilization due to
seeding. Which results in an Erosion Control Fee estimate of $1974.06.
Based on no planned stormwater quality control measures there would be no
LID/WQ Inspection fee.
Please note that as the plans and any subsequent review modifications of the
above-mentioned values change the fees may need to be modified. I have
provided a copy of the spreadsheet used to arrive at these estimates for your
review.
RESPONSE: Acknowledged.

There is an error in the Tree Species Diversity table on page 4 of the landscape
plan stating that there are 27 proposed plantings when in fact there are 29.

The Land Use Code 3.2.1 diversity requirements for a plan with 20 to 39 trees
state that the maximum diversity percentage for one tree is 33%. Please
replace at least two of the hackberry trees proposed with catalpa or Kentucky
coffeetrees to meet the requirement.
Number of trees on site Maximum percentage of any one species
10-19 50%
20-39 33%
40-59 25%
60 or more 15%
RESPONSE: The Tree Species Diversity table has been fixed to show the accurate number of trees. No one species will exceed
33%.
Comment Number: 17
09/20/2022: FOR FINAL APROVAL
Although the comment responses state that canopy trees shade trees had been
added to the plan, the number of shade trees proposed is 5 less than proposed
in the previous round of review. Please add additional shade trees to the south
side of the rain garden on the east side of the property. See Forestry redlines.
RESPONSE: Tree locations had to shift in order to satisfy utility separations, but we were able to add 5 trees back to the plan.
