P.O. Box 11929 College Station, Texas 77842 Phone: (979) 764-7743 Subject: Revised Final Plat Dove Crossing, Phases 3-4 College Station, Texas Remarks: Attached are 2 full-sized copies and 15-11x17 sized copies of the revised Final Plat of the above-mentioned project. The mylar original and the digital file will be submitted separately once final approval is given. Also attached is our response to the staff review comments. Let me know if you have any questions or need anything else. Dove Crossing Subdivision, Phases 3 & 4 — Final Plat Response to Staff Review Comments No. 1 (dated 9/12/2006) Planning 1. Metes and bounds do not close. Please contact Sven Griffin with any questions regarding plat closure. Response: This issue has been discussed with Sven and resolved. 2. The construction documents and reports are still under review and may affect the plat. Response: Noted. 3. Add note to plat that Common Areas will be maintained by HOA. If detention ponds are not to be dedicated as Common Areas then also note maintenance responsibility. Response: There are no Common Areas in this phase. Maintenance of the detention pond is addressed in Note 8. Engineering 1. Please be aware that with a combined Development Permit for Phases 3 and 4, a single letter of acceptance will be issued for both phases. (One phase will not be accepted without the other.) Response: This is noted and understood. 2. Oversize participation requires that construction cannot begin until the OP agreement has been approved by City Council. Response: Developments such as this one are extremely time sensitive. Any delays, particularly long ones that are not in the control of the developer, can cause the entire project to miss the marketing opportunity that the project is attempting to meet. This obviously affects the economic viability of the development. Any significant delays to the project schedule are unacceptable. If the City staff can tell the developer with certainty when the OP request will be presented to the Council, the developer can make a decision as to whether he wishes to wait until the Council acts or proceed with the risk of losing funding from the City.. This same issue will come up on every project involving oversize participation by the City. A policy should be developed that provides a timely response to oversize participation requests. Otherwise, developers will become increasingly reluctant to partner with the City on such projects. 3. As submitted,your OP request is greater than 30%. Response: Section 9-A of the Subdivision Ordinance states the following: "The City's participation mai' not exceed 30 percent of the total contract price. While it does not state clearly what is meant by total contract price, it is presumed to mean either the total of the water system ($196,813) or the total of the entire development ($1,176,982). In either case, the total Oversize Participation request of $15,500 is well below 30% of those figures. The cost computation included with the OP request letter was developed using only those six items that change as a result of the oversizing. All other values in the water system remain the same, so it is not necessary to include them in the computation of oversize costs. 4. Show existing easements with associated volume and page numbers. Response: It is not clear which easements you are requesting information for. All existing easements have the associated v/p info shown. 5. Off-site easements are required for utilities. Submit easement dedication sheet and associated documents. Response: There is a blanket easement in place for the undeveloped portion of the parent tract. No specific easements are necessary until the site is developed. Electrical Comments Requiring Immediate Attention 1. Developer provides easements for electric infrastructure as installed for electric lines (including street lights). Response: Noted 2. The following easements will be required. • A 15' PUE from back of Lots 21 &22 Block 2 to Dove Hollow Lane • A 20' PUE from Alexandria Ave through Lots 1-13 Block 11 and continuing through Lots 1-6 Block 13. Half of this 20' will encroach into the alley. • A 15' PUE from back of Lots 2 & 3 Block 18. • A 5' PUE in Lot 5 between Lots 5 &6 Block for street light. • A 5' Pue in Lot 10 between Lots 10 & 11 Block 11 for street light. • A 5' Pue in Lot 6 between Lots 5 ^ 6 Block 13 for street light. Response: The above easements have been added to this plat. Sanitation 1. Need to show a temporary turnaround at south end of Dove Hollow Lane. Response: Dove Hollow Lane only extends 1 lot depth past the intersection with Emerald Dove Avenue. Dove Crossing Lane in Phase 2 of this subdivision had the same circumstance and it was constructed without a temporary turnaround. In the past, this has been allowed in other subdivisions also, and the Developer requests to not build the temporary turnaround.
