PLANNING/ENGINEERING
1. Please provide current tax certificates.
2. Please submit TxDOT permit for Jeanne Drive access to SH 40.
3. Remove all setbacks on the plat, and the general note portions that relate to the specific setback. It is
adequate for it just to reference the UDO setbacks and it being a cluster development.
4. What happened to the median on McLaren Drive cul-de-sac from the preliminary plat?
5. The PUE in the common area at McLister and McFarland is missing. Please add.
6. Please label the PUEs at the southwest property corner.
7. Show ROW dedication for FM 2154 (Wellborn Road).
8. Please provide information how the buffer requirement is being met—through existing vegetation (please
show how those trees will be protected during construction), or through new plantings. This does not
need to be on the final plat or construction documents,but we would like documents for our files.
9. The construction documents and reports are still under review and may affect the plat.

TxDOT
1. Access driveways to SH 40 must meet TxDOT's current"Regulations for Access Driveways to State
Highways."Regulations are primarily based on posted speed limits and distances between proposed&
adjacent access points.Where posted speed limits are 50 MPH or more the required spacing between
access points is 425'.
Where driveway spacing is insufficient joint access will be required or access to internal/external streets.
Appropriate information will be required for any future permits/work @ this site,which should include
drainage data,etc.

PLANNING
1. If current tax certificates are not available, they will need to be provided prior to the filing of the final
plat.
2. A TxDOT driveway permit has not been submitted for Jeanne Drive to access SH 40. The project will
not be scheduled for a Planning & Zoning Commission meeting until at least preliminary approval has
been obtained from TxDOT for the driveway.
3. The diagram that was submitted to show the limits of clearing is not sufficient. An additional
requirement was added to the property by City Council when it was rezoned from A-O to R-1. It reads
in part "that 20 feet of existing natural vegetated buffer be maintained between the subject property and
all properties zoned A-O, Agricultural Open to the south. Where no existing vegetation exists, buffer
plantings as set out in Article 7.6 Buffers of the Unified Development Ordinance must be maintained."
From an aerial photo, it does not appear that the entire length,particular that abutting the Dale tract, has
vegetation sufficient to meet UDO Article 7.6 Buffers. Submit a tree survey demonstrating existing
vegetation along with barricade details for such and provide a landscape plan showing how the remainder
of the buffer requirement will be met.
4. Remove B.S.L. from the Abbreviations in General Note #7.
5. The turning radius for the cul-de-sac on McLaren Drive is still under review by the Fire Department.
6. The construction documents and reports are still under review and may affect the plat.
