Comment: Show all utilities and fire hydrants. Answer: Shown on revised Site Plan. Comment: Provide screening details for the compactor. Additionally, the driveway to the compactor must be paved to firelane standard. Sanitation is fine with the compactor, however, there should be sufficient room around the compactor to access and service the compactor. Please be aware of this when designing the screening. Answer: The compactor and loading area will be screened by the required rear buffer. Comment: Provide screening details for outdoor storage area in compliance with the Unified Development Ordinance, Section 7.11 — Outdoor Storage and Dis lay. / Answer: e screening ils will be submitted with the architectural elevations and renderings. Comment: Provide limits of the Outdoor Display, in compliance with the Unified Development Ordinance, Section 7.9.E — Non-Residential Architectural Standards - Additional Standards for 50,000 S.F. or Greater. This allows outdoor display within 30 percent of the area of the required 10-foot sidewalk immediately adjacent to the building. Answer: Shown on revised Site Plan. Comment: Outdoor display areas may not exceed more than 5 feet from the wall of the building. Please modify. Answer: Modified on revised Site Plan.

Comment: Please show all landscaping items, like tree wells and buffer areas that impact the design of the site on the site plan as well as the landscape plan. Answer: These will be shown when these details are available from the landscaping plan. We have shown the 15' buffer area, however we are exploring the options in the ordinance to enable us to use a fence rather then a wall since it will be on top of a sewerline. Sixteen tree wells will be provided along the building façades facing State Hwy 6 (10 wells) and Horse Haven (6 wells) as per UDO requirements. Comment: Please note that the subject property, and the adjacent Lot 2B is one building plot. Answer: Site Plan can be approved with the condition that no work occur within the right-of-way until the TxDOT permit is issued. Comment: Site Plan will not be approved until TxDOT approval has been granted. Answer: Comment noted. Comment: When designing site lighting, please keep UDO Section 7.10 — Outdoor Lighting Standards in mind. All lighting must comply with these requirements. Answer: Comment noted. Comment: Provide a general note that all roof and ground-mounted mechanical equipment shall be screened from view or isolated so as not to be visible from any public right-of-way or residential district within 150' of the subject lot, measured from a point five feet above grade. Such screening shall be coordinated with the building architecture and scale to maintain a unified appearance. Answer: Noted on revised Site Plan. LANDSCAPING/STREETSCAPING/BUFFER Comment: Landscape Plan was not submitted. The approved Landscape Plan will be required double landscaping points, as well as a 2" — caliper minimum for all canopy trees. (UDO, Section 7.9). Answer: Landscape Plan will be submitted at a later time. Comment: Show limits of buffer area on site plan. Provide buffer plantings in accordance with the UDO, Section 7.6 — Buffer Requirements. Answer: Buffer areas shown on revised site plan. Details will be illustrated on the landscape plan. Comment: Provide a general note that 100% coverage of groundcover, decorative paving, decorative rock, or a perennial grass is required in parking lot islands, swales and drainage areas, the parking lot setback, rights-of-way, and adjacent property disturbed during construction. Answer: Noted on Site Plan. Comment: Irrigation system must be protected by either a Pressure Vacuum Breaker, a Reduced Pressure Principle Back Flow Device, or a Double-Check Back Flow Device, and installed as per City Ordinance 2394. Answer: Noted. Comment: All BackFlow devices must be installed and tested upon installation as per City Ordinance 2394. Answer: Noted on Site Plan. TxDOT Comment: The existing driveway will not meet the 425' spacing requirement, but each property is entitled to 1 access point. Answer: Shown on Site Plan. Comment: Since the current property owners have an access driveway, the driveway shown should be shifted to the north & provide a joint access to both tracts. No additional access between Switch Station Road & Horse Haven Lane will be allowed. Answer: Noted. Comment: A right-in, right-out driveway with raised divider island would be recommended. Answer: Although recommended, a right-in, right-out driveway with a raised divider island does not appear to provide additional safety on a one-way frontage road. We believe it is not necessary, since this driveway will be right-in, right-out already. Comment: A short decel lane would be recommended, since it has been offered. Answer: This driveway will not handle the volume that Horse Haven handles, which does not have a decel lane. We are not proposing a decal lane. ELECTRICAL Comment: Any relocation of existing utilities due to driveway & detention pond locations will be at the cost of the developer. Contact me or Tony as soon as possible so work can be scheduled. Answer: Electrical will be contacted as soon as possible. ENGINEERING Comment: Provide TxDot Driveway application addressing TxDot's attached comments. Additionally, drainage calculations need to be provided for the proposed culvert in this drive. Provide standard driveway details with culvert end treatment, etc. Early discussions with TxDot are encouraged (See note 5 as well). Answer: Submitted 11/22/06. Comment: Depict all existing drives along Horse Haven Lane and provide adjacent and opposite spacing from proposed driveways. Alignment of existing and proposed drives is encouraged. Final approval of these drive alignments will not be approved until this information is provided. Answer: Shown on revised Site Plan. Comment: Provide Water-Wastewater Report addressing fire flows, sprinkling, domestic flows, meter sizing, etc. Answer: To be provided by CDL under separate cover on 12/14/06. Comment: Provide a Drainage Report addressing pre and post conditions. As discussed with Brett McCully with Bleyl Engineering, the tributary south of Academy is designated as a primary drainage course and a good candidate for accepting flows undetained. This will require traversing the Academy, likely meaning the post-flows to the mid-block inlet on Horse Haven must be designed back to pre-flows by decreasing the drainage area or a pond — as the downstream drainage traverses Academy's private existing system. The drainage flows directed toward frontage road could be conveyed by a proposed public storm system along the existing 20' PUE to the tributary. This would require the storm sewer be extended to Lot 2B to be public. It is advisable to consider sizing this line so that post flows could be conveyed and detention ponds may not be necessary. This would require a certification from the design engineer in regard to no negative impacts based on the primary designation, policy of rapid conveyance, and a statement to the lag times creating no negative impacts. It should be noted that Lot 2C may also require connection into this suggested public line and therefore should be addressed as a potential future condition as there is little to no opportunity to convey drainage southward for Lot 2C. Specific attention should be given to the discharge point in to the tributary — dissipation blocks, velocity, angle of discharge, slope stability, etc. Also, there is a TxDot Easement on the tributary requiring a State Permit as well. Answer: To be provided under separate cover by Bleyl Engineering. Comment: Provide a Development Permit application and the associated $800 fee. Answer: To be provided under separate cover by Bleyl Engineering... Comment: Provide all associated Grading / Erosion Control Plans including all existing and proposed (rough) grading. (Site Plan will ultimately need detailed proposed grading and spot elevations, etc.) An intermediate Development Permit can be issued for this work along with the Demolition Permit for the structures. Note that this site should have a SWPPP and an NOI for the TPDES Ph.2 Storm water Permit with the State. Define the intention of the coordination of the retaining wall or if it is to be removed. If it is to be removed, you need to confirm if it is in the ROW (and public) and if there are additional associated requirements. Answer: Grading Plan is attached, SWPPP will be submitted at a later time. Comment: Provide Construction Plans for associated public infrastructure which would appear to be both water and storm sewer. Answer: To be provided by CDL under separate cover on 12/14/06. Comment: A separate Development Permit for the Water line should be acceptable to accelerate the building permit. In general, the water and access are necessary to be constructed on the site prior to combustibles being allowed to go vertical on the building permit. It the Building Official's discretion (in coordination with the City Engineer and Fire Marshall) to consider a slab only prior to these items. Answer: Noted. Comment: Depict all existing and proposed pertinent features such as public utilities, hydrants, private services, meters, irrigation, electric, edge of pavement, sidewalks, inlets, drives, retaining walls, ponds, structures, etc. Answer: Noted on Site Plan and Grading Plan. Comment: Coordinate details of electric service and conflicts - such as with the detention pond with Tony Michalsky with CSU Electric at (979)764-3681. Answer: Noted. Comment: Additional cross access easements along the rear of Lot 2A and 2B would assist future development between the two commercial lots. Also, depict the joint "western" access easement. Answer: Denoted on Site Plan and Final Plat. Comment: Depict dumpster location and details. Answer: Gander Mountain will utilize a trash compactor located at the truck dock. Comment: Depict a 10' PUE along perimeter of all lots. Answer: Denoted on Final Plat. If you have any questions or comments, please feel free to contact me. Thank you.
