Dear Randy,
Staff has reviewed the Somerset PLID, Preliminary and has the following
comments:
1. Staff is concerned with the proposed site design for the following
reasons:
- Adequate setbacks and landscape buffering has not been provided
along property perimeters. 5'-20' setbacks from property lines
to parking or buildings do not provide adequate space for buff-
ering.
- Buildings are isolated within the site and a better attempt
at clustering should be made.
- The internal circulation system is confusing and does not pro-
vide for prioritized traffic flow. Access to a number of buildings
is only provided through long and circuitous parking isles.
- The plan contains too much pavement, particularly in major parking
lot concentrations.
- The landscape plan should provide a more unified approach to
building, street and driveway plantings.
2. Staff has not yet received a required traffic impact analysis.
3. Two buildings do not meet the 150 foot fire department access
requi rement.
4. Dimensions are required on site plan, i.e., drives, parking, curb
cuts, and buildings.
5. Curb cuts versus curb returns are to be provided.

7. Pedestrian access from Troutman and Boardwalk is to be provided.
Sidewalks are to be provided on the north side of Troutman.
8. Handicapped ramps are to be provided.
9. This property will be assessed $12,949 for the Warren Lake
Trunk Sewer Repay. The sewer line constructed through this site
will have to connect to the existing sewer line which ends at
Boardwalk and Troutman.
10. The storm drainage report submitted is not adequate.
11. The 5' cedar fencing along the park boundary is not a preferable
solution. A combination of berming and landscaping, along with an
increased separation between the park and parking lot,would main-
tain an open feeling that is more desireable. If there is a fence,
we would require a 6" concrete mowing strip at the base and also
request that the openings to the park be wider than the apparent
4' shown. 8'-10' would be more preferable. This property currently
has no easement for drainage onto the park property. No drainage
will be allowed onto park property unless there is negotiations
with and approval from Parks and Recreation. What plans does the
developer have for storm drainage? The utility plans do not indi-
cate anything.
Revised site plans addressing the above comments are to be submitted
September 10, 1984. 82" X 11" reductions, colored renderings, and ten
(10) copies of the plans, are to be submitted September 17, 1984. Signed
mylars are to be submitted by September 24, 1984.
If you have any questions regarding the above comments, please feel free
to call.
