12/29/2022: SUBMITTAL:
All plans should be saved as optimized/flattened PDFs to reduce file size and remove layers.
Per the Electronic Submittal Requirements AutoCAD SHX attributes need to be removed from the PDF’s.
AutoCAD turns drawing text into comments that appear in the PDF plan set,
and these must be removed prior to submittal as they can cause issues with the PDF file.
The default setting is "1" ("on") in AutoCAD. To change the setting and remove
this feature, type "EPDFSHX" (version 2016.1) or “PDFSHX (version 2017 and
newer) in the command line and enter "0".

Topic: General
Comment Number: 1
12/14/2022: NO HISTORIC REVIEW REQUIRED:
This proposal does not require historic review because there are no designated
historic resources on the site and the nature of the project does not impact any
historic resources that may lie on the development site or within 200 feet of the
site.
Comment Number: 2
12/14/2022: INFORMATION ONLY:
The main instructional building at 2540 Laporte Avenue (Mountain View
School/District 10 School) was identified as Landmark-eligible in previous
historic survey. Historic Preservation Services can supply documentation if
needed by PSD for long-range planning and/or pursuit of historic preservation
funding opportunities (designation would be required).

12/21/2022: FOR APPROVAL:
Laporte Avenue is a two lane arterial. LCUASS standards require 2-lane
arterials to have 84 feet of right-of-way. This will require an additional 12 feet of
ROW to be dedicated along the Laporte frontage. There are also 15 foot
easements required to be dedicated beyond the additional 12 feet of ROW.
Comment Number: 2
12/21/2022: FOR APPROVAL:
Barton Drive will also need 9 foot utility easements dedicated beyond the ROW.
The necessary ROW and utility easements have been added to the new plat document.
Comment Number: 3
12/21/2022: FOR FUTURE DEVELOPMENT:
The adjacent development - Sanctuary on the Green intends to add in detached
sidewalks with parkways along Barton and Laporte. Any development on these
parcels would need to tie in to those designs.

12/26/2022: INFORMATION:
The platting of these properties alone does not trigger the requirement of a
Transportation Impact Study. TIS waived. Any subsequent development of
these sites will however be reviewed upon submittal and may require further Traffic Evaluation.

Comment Number: 2
12/29/2022: QUESTION:

There is a 6-inch water main on the western parcel, that has a fire hydrant
serviced from it. The fire hydrant and water main will need to be located on a

12/29/2022: FOR APPROVAL:
This subdivision has different taxing districts for each parcel. We won't create
one new parcel until both parcels are in the same taxing district.
9709200910 is in tax district 1115
9709103926 is in tax district 1110
Parcel 9709103926 is included in the Sunset Water District.
Parcel 9709103926 is not.
They will have to be in all of the same taxing districts to create one new parcel.
Please let me know if you have any questions, Thank you.
After discussion with Sunset Water District, it was found that the tax district for parcel 9709200910 had
been incorrectly recorded. This issue has been addressed and both parcels are now in the same tax district.
