Dear,Mr. Russell:
Staff has reviewed the request for Boat Building II at The Toy
Shed, I-L, Site Plan Review. The following comments are offered:
1. The existing drainage plan for this site should be modified to
take into account the added imperviousness. An erosion
control plan should also be submitted since none was done for
this phase of construction. The modified drainage plan and
erosion control plan should be submitted to Basil Hamden,
Stormwater Utility, 235 Mathews Street.
2. The outside storage lot should be paved in conjunction with
the construction of Building II.
3: The amount of interior landscaping provided on the site plan
is indicated to be 2,900 square feet. Our calculation
indicates only 2,179 square feet, a difference of 721 square
feet. It appears that 721 additional square footage of
landscaping must be added.
4. If storage of motor vehicles is proposed,' ventilation as
required by Section 705 Uniform Building Code is required. A
noncombustible and nonabsorbent floor is required with
drainage to an approved oil separator or trap.
5. Shade trees should be located on the south property line.
These trees should be a minimum of two inches in caliper.
6. The Flowering Crabs should be specified to be "Spring Snow" or
"Radiant" with a caliper size of two inches.
7. Please add the following three notes to the landscape plan:
"A free (no charge) permit from the City Forester is required
before any trees are planted, pruned, or removed from the
public right-of-way."
"The landscaping shall be irrigated. The irrigation plan must

.-.must --be -installed - according -to ---approved--plans,--or ---an - -
acceptable bond deposited with the City prior to issuance of
a certificate of occupancy."
"Mulches shall be used in the planting beds and shall be
applied to a minimum depth of three inches.
8. The landscape plan shall include the amount of square footage
of the new planting beds.
9. U.S. West requests that the developer contact Mr. Tim Weaver
at 224-7516 three months before construction to discuss
telephone conduit requirements.
This concludes Staff comments at this time. Please re -submit two
copies of the revised plan. Both the Planning and Zoning
Departments are available to answer any questions. or concerns.-__._._
regarding these comments. The Stormwater Utility is available to
address issues related to the drainage report and erosion control
plan.
The administrative hearing will be scheduled when the revised plans
are re -submitted and when Stormwater Utility receives the necessary
information.
