PLANNING AND LANDSCAPING / STREETSCAPING
1. Please dimension three queing spaces for the ATM window on the north side of the building
and verify that this requirement as well as other standards, such as drive-aisle widths, is
also being met.
2. Staff's calculation of the proposed landscaping points indicated that 5,672 points were
proposed as opposed to the 5,822 points on the legend. Please verify.
3. Staff was only able to verify that 15 street trees were being provided within 50' of the
property line along the two thoroughfares. Please provide an additional two canopy trees
along the streets. As a reminder, two non-canopy trees may be substituted for one canopy
tree.
4. Staff noticed that the dumpster is located on an easement. Please be aware of the following
and add a note to the site plan that states that if utilities need to be accessed within the
easement and the dumpster enclosure needs to be removed, that it will be the owner's
responsibility to repair or replace the structure. Additionally, please keep the structure at
least 5-feet away from the manhole to provide a workspace.

NON-RESIDENTIAL ARCHITECTURAL COMMENTS
1. Per Section 7.9 NRA Standards, two architectural elements are required on facades
facing a public ROW for every 45' horizontal feet. This standard applies to the facades
facing Texas Avenue (east) and Holleman Drive (south). Additionally, two architectural
elements are required on all other facades for every 60' horizontal feet (north and west).
Please find evaluations of each façade below and revise the building plans as
necessary:
a. East elevation: Staff counted the wall plane projection as two elements, but it is
still lacking two required elements. Canopies over the windows would satisfy this
requirement.
b. South elevation: Staff counted the canopy and wall plane projection as two
elements, but it is still lacking two required elements.
c. West elevation: Staff counted the canopy as one element out of the two required
elements. Extending the teller window projection to 4' would satisfy this
requirement.
d. North elevation: Staff counted the canopy as one element out of the two required
elements. Please provide another architectural feature.
2. Please provide a sample of the proposed roof material to verify that it is either copper or
silver metallic as required by the UDO.
3. Please be aware that all signs will be permitted separately.

tables B105.1 and C105.1 of the fire code, using the proposed square footage and
building material type, please submit.
8. Drainage Report: It appears from the grading plan that the existing and proposed
contours are very similar, I assume the overall drainage pattern for the proposed site will
remain the same as the existing site, please verify.
9. Please submit development permit and fees.
