Comments requiring action should NOT have a response such as noted or acknowledged. You will need to provide references to specific project plans, pages, reports, or explanations of why comments have not been addressed [when applicable]. RIPLEY DESIGN RESPONSE: Below comments provieded have been addressed and responded to. Comment Number: 3 03/14/2023: SUBMITTAL: Please follow the Electronic Submittal Requirements and File Naming Standards found at https://www.fcgov.com/developmentreview/files/electronic submittal requirements and file naming standards_v1_8 1 19.pdf?1566857888. File names should begin with the file type, followed by the project information, and round number. Example: UTILITY PLANS_PROJECT NAME_PDP_Rd2.pdf File type acronyms maybe appropriate to avoid extremely long file names. Example: TIS for Traffic Impact Study, ECS for Ecological Characterization Study. Reach out to me if you would like a list of suggested names. *Please disregard any references to paper copies, flash drives, or CDs. RIPLEY DESIGN RESPONSE: The documents in this submittal follow the above format and naming convention. Comment Number: 4 03/14/2023: 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". Read this article at Autodesk.com for more on this topic: https://knowledge.autodesk.com/support/autocad/troubleshooting/caas/sfdcarti cles/sfdcarticles/Drawing-text-appears-as-Comments-in-a-PDF-created-by-AutoCAD.html RIPLEY DESIGN RESPONSE: The documents in this submittal follow the above optimization and flattening for size reduction.

The deeds of dedication will also need to be filled out and signed. The templates can be found here: https://www.fcgov.com/engineering/devrev.php#cb -38308-6601 - the General Deed should work just fine for these easements.

Department: Traffic Operation Contact: Steve Gilchrist sgilchrist@fcgov.com 970-224-6175 Topic: General Comment Number: 3 07/18/2023: FOR FINAL APPROVAL: With the removal of the parking lot on the south side of the site we would like an east/west sidewalk added that creates a pedestrian connection along the parking lot to south. RIPLEY DESIGN RESPONSE: A pedestrian walk connecting the east and west private drives has been included in the new site design. See sheet “L2 - Site Plan.” Department: Erosion Control Contact: Basil Hamdan bhamdan@fcgov.com 970-222-1801 Topic: Erosion Control Comment Number: 7 07/18/2023: all Erosion and Sediment Control comments have been addressed. OLSSON RESPONSE: Acknowledged, thank you. 03/10/2023: FOR FINAL APPROVAL: Please address all redlined comments provided on the Erosion Control Plans. Department: Stormwater Engineering Contact: Wes Lamarque wlamarque@fcgov.com 970-416-2418 Topic: General Comment Number: 1 07/19/2023: FOR APPROVAL - UPDATED: Please make more clear the WQ weirs on Sheet 28 in the " Flow Control Structure Parameters" Detail. OLSSON RESPONSE: Details have been revised for additional clarity. 03/10/2023: FOR APPROVAL: Please include all needed Stormtech details in the Utility Plan set. This needs to include the manifold system as well. Comment Number: 2 07/19/2023: FOR APPROVAL - UNRESOLVED: Sanitary sewer connection still needed for washing operations. OLSSON RESPONSE: Per discussions and coordination with the COFC, the following resolution has been agreed upon: “To accommodate these concerns, we are going to implement a permeable turf section for part of the site in order to infiltrat e the low flow sprinklers that arise. For the hard power washed areas, we will drain the flows to the storm sewer system trench dra in and area inlet in the parking areas. This will require a vault and two valves to open the sanitary system and close the storm system d uring the washes and vice versa for the remaining time.” 6 03/10/2023: FOR APPROVAL: Discussions need to take place on dog waste maintenance and what is being planned for cleanup. Primary waste areas can not drain into the storm sewer system until cleaning is performed. Is there a proposed method? The City suggests an area that can be cleaned and rinsed into the sanitary sewer system. Since the area is outside, a weather proof system would need to be proposed. This could include a sewer cleanout (intake) that is capped to prevent storm drainage from entering. The cap could then be removed during cleaning periods. Comment Number: 5 07/19/2023: FOR APPROVAL - UPDATED: The easements need to be labeled "Drainage Easement" not "Storm Utility". Please revise. OLSSON RESPONSE: Easement for the Underground detention facility is labeled Drainage Easement. RIPLEY DESIGN RESPONSE: ESMTS label has been updated to “Drainage Easement” on Site plan. 03/11/2023: FOR APPROVAL: Drainage easements are required for both Stormtech systems and outlet pipes. Comment Number: 8 07/19/2023: FOR APPROVAL: The southeast storm sewer, from the inlet to the Stormtech chambers, is too close to the proposed shade tree. Please provide 10 feet of separation. RIPLEY DESIGN RESPONSE: The proposed tree in conflict with the storm sewer has been adjusted to provide greater than 10’ clearance. See sheet “L4 - Landscape & Tree Mitigation” for new location. Department: Water-Wastewater Engineering Contact: Wes Lamarque wlamarque@fcgov.com 970-416-2418 Topic: General Comment Number: 1 07/19/2023: FOR APPROVAL - UNRESOLVED: 03/10/2023: FOR APPROVAL: Please provide 6 feet of separation from the sewer service and the gas line. OLSSON RESPONSE: The gas line has been update to show 6 feet of separation from the sanitary sewer grease trap service as far as possible until it needs to connect into the building. Comment Number: 3 07/19/2023: FOR APPROVAL - UPDATED: Please also add water Detail 11. OLSSON RESPONSE: Water Detail 11 has been added to the first detail sheet. 03/10/2023: FOR APPROVAL: Please update the water service to the correct details. Water Details 16A & 16B need to be added to the plans and please remove the current detail in the plan set. 7 Comment Number: 9 07/19/2023: FOR APPROVAL: Water Details 31 and 2 on Sheet 26 can be removed as well unless there is some reason they are needed.
