ISSUES:
Department: Engineering Issue Contact: Katie Moore
Topic: Detail Sheet C10
88
Please remove unneeded details (no parking/bike lane sign) and see sheet for additional comments
Topic: General
102
Please remove the indemnification statement from the cover sheet.
105
For easements on -site: Please provide additional area for the emergency access easement so that it
connects with the ROW. Please let me know what the other easements should be labeled as (utility,
drainage, etc.).
Topic: Utility Sheet C7-Linden plan and profile
103
Please show how the proposed improvements will tie into existing conditions at the north end of the
improvements.
104
A straight-line grade value is shown within a vertical curve near the south end of the improvements. Does this
value (1.6%) really only apply to the small unlabeled straight grade portion immediately south of the curve?
Topic: Utility Sheet Ca -Linden cross -sections
87
Please show the true cross -slopes from the curb to the edge of ROW to the east.
4.3.02: Cross slopes for parkway are all shown as 2%. This does not match the grading plan.

Topic: Site Plan

Landscape: The location of the Montmorency Cherry and Autumn Blaze Pear (east of the building) isolates
the eastern most parking area. Recommend lower growing shrubs at both locations.
Lighting and Building Access: Two doors opening to the west and one opening to north (at north end of
building) have no apparent security lighting. Further, the north access point is obscured by the Blue Spruce
Page 1
plantings. Recommend some form of security lighting at these doors and moving the Spruce away from the
north access point.
Department: Stormwater Utility Issue Contact: Wes Lamarque
Topic: Drainage
96
The proposed C-factor for sub -basin 5A-3 is only .27, yet this area is planned for a future parking lot. The C-
factor was higher the previous submittal and was reduced. Please use the corresponding C-factor for the
ultimate site plan design and revise all hydraulic calculations associated with this new flow.
97
The on -site flow for the 2-foot pan on the east -side of the site and for the private drive storm conveyance
does not seem to correspond to any flows in the hydrology calculations. Please revise calculations.
98
The WQ ponds revised calculations say that 10% of the site drains to WQ Pond B, when the schematic shows
that 90% of the site drains to WQ Pond B. Please clarify and revise calculations if needed.
100
Please provide a cross-section for the private drive just before Inlet 1 with the HWL for site flows and all off -site
flows to show drive has capacity as an ouffall due to smaller storm sewer being constructed,

Topic: Erosion/Sdiment Control

1. One would assume that site access was at the point of the vehicle tracking pad in the southeast corner of
the site, which means the silt fencing shown on the plan at that location cannot extend across the opening.
Otherwise, the plan is OK. Thank you.
