ENGINEERING COMMENTS NO. 2
1. If you do not plan on dedicating the appropriate easements at this time, a blanket utility
easement must be dedicated prior to construction plans being released. The appropriate
easements must be dedicated prior to the easement abandonment being forwarded to
legal and council. I would recommend that the easement abandonment and dedication
process begin as soon as possible.
2. (CLOMR) As stated in Chapter 13: Flood Hazard Protection Ordinance, Section 5.C, "If
modification of any watercourse is involved, an effective Conditional Letter of Map
Amendment shall be on file with the Administrator prior to any development."
3. FYI: (Sheet 1) I realize verifying fire hydrant coverage is not a requirement under this
"Box Culvert and Utility Relocation" project, however verifying that the appropriate
infrastructure exists at this point may save time at Site Plan. Using Table C105.1 from
the Fire Code, it appears the proposed structure will be required to be within 300-ft
drive-able fire lane and 150-ft arc length of 3 fire hydrants. The proposed fire lane
layout does not allow for any of the existing hydrant to the west of the Kohl's building
to meet this requirement (the 3rd required hydrant),please modify.
4. (Sheet 02 and 04) Please quantify why the sanitary sewer service for the adjacent building
can not be routed toward George Bush East. As currently designed the box

culvert/sanitary main conflict can not be allowed, due to potential utility and drainage
maintenance issues.
5. (Sheet 5) The water demands and water meter illustrated on the Site Plan (Sheet 01) are
equal to a 1.5-in meter, however on this sheet the water meter is shown to be a 2-in
meter. The proposed water demands call for a 1.5-in meter.
