It has been determined that this development request could possibly be placed on the agenda for the January 18, 2007 Planning & Zoning Board public hearing. However, there are some issues and concerns with various City departments that must be addressed before this item could go to the Board. This could be done through another formal round of review (if re- submitted quickly) or by working directly with the appropriate representatives of the departments. Staff will be setting the P 8v Z Board agenda on December 20, 2006. Be sure and return all red -lined plans when you re -submit.

Page 8 Department: Stormwater-Water-Wastewater Issue Contact: Wes Lamarque Topic: Floodplain Number: 30 Created: 11 / 21 / 2006 [ 11 / 21 / 06] The City's Dry Creek floodplain will be revised in the near future and this revision will remove the site form the 100-year floodplain. The site still will be partially in the FEMA 500-year floodplain until the Physical Map Revision is approved by FEMA in approximately 2 years. Number: 31 Created: 11 / 21 / 2006 [ 11 / 21 / 06] Please show and label FEMA 500-year floodplain on the plat and drainage plan. Topic: Stormwater Number: 25 Created: 11 / 21 / 2006 [ 11 / 21 / 06] Please discuss in detail the reasoning behind this site only detaining for on -site runoff and not off -site runoff from the north and west. In the discussion, describe where the other lots that are undeveloped will detain and outfall. This is needed because this proposal is changing the existing design for all 4 of these lots. Please discuss how the interim (existing) undeveloped off -site flows will drain. This site may need to route these off -site flows through the site. Please remove discussion with City Staff in the text and only include the explanations. Number: 26 Created: 11 / 21 / 2006 [ 11 / 21 / 061 The .06 cfs release rate for the detention pond is impractical (being less than the water quality release rate) and also will probably have clogging problems. It is suggested that you request a variance to allow basin F to release undetained and keep the detention pond release rate equal to the site release rate of .36 cfs. This will allow for a practical release and still provide adequate detention and still improve the situation for the regional downstream drainage system. Number: 27 Created: 11 / 21 / 2006 [ 11 / 21 / 06] The minimum size for storm sewers is 15 inches. This is for clogging purposes. Please revise storm sewers 2 and 3 to 15 inches. Storm sewer 1 can stay at 10 inches as the drainage area is extremely small. Number: 28 Created: 11 / 21 / 2006 [ 11 / 21 / 06] Please use the City standard water quality outlet structure detail. I can email you this new detail. Number: 29 , Created: 11 / 21 / 2006 [ 11 / 21 / 06] Please change the text on the plat to read Drainage Easement, not Detention Pond Easement.
