2. Please adjust the location of the easement adjacent to North Forest Drive, so that the
20-ft PUE does not encroach the 15-ft Aquila Pipeline Easement. These lots include:
Lots 1 thru 5 of Phase 3, Block 9; Lots 6 thru 12 of Phase 3, Block 10; Lots 1 thur 10 of
Phase 1, Block 1.
3. It appears there are a few locations where public utilities cross private HOA designated
area, please adjust.
4. Please label the easement that is supporting the off site sanitary sewer extension.

PLANNING
1. Where Appomattox dead ends in Phase two, there will need to be a temporary turn around.
2. (FYI) Phases 2, 3 & 4 exceed the 30-lot requirement for two access points to the
subdivision. Please be aware that no more than 30 lots will be allowed without a secondary
access.
3. Please label sidewalks on the plat. Sidewalks are required on both sides of the street.
Sidewalks will be required on Carters Cove and Ironwood Drive cul-de-sac for pedestrian
access.
4. Please provide the zoning for the Northrop Grumman property.
5. Phase 2, Block 5 is reflecting a 15-PUE . This needs to be a 20-foot PUE.
6. Please be aware that no block length can exceed 1200 feet. It appears that Chestnut Oak
Circle exceeds this requirement.
7. Please be aware that depending on how this development is built out, emergency vehicle
turn a rounds may be required, as no street stub may exceed 100 feet and cannot be
adjacent to more than one lot.

1. Please place a 20-ft PUE along all rear lot lines that do not back up to existing 20-ft PUE.
This is to include the areas that back up to streets.
2. Please place a 10-ft PUE along the side lot lines of Lots 1 & 5 of Palm Court, as well as Lot
1 of Raintree Drive, adjacent to Appomattox.
3. The off site sanitary sewer extension appears to need additional easement.
4. Please label Aquila Pipeline easement on the eastern portion of the plat.
5. The proposed North Forest ROW dedication is not acceptable as it is encumbered by a gas
pipeline and easement and therefore we need surety as city staff has previously discussed
with the developer. Per the Subdivision Regulations, when a subdivision embraces a
thoroughfare shown on the City's Master Plan the street must be platted. The land that the
developer is proposing to dedicate to the City is encumbered by the gas line and easement
which renders it unsuitable for the purpose of the thoroughfare extension. We have
proposed the escrow as a means of addressing that encumbrance. As long as the roadway
remains on the plan the right-of-way dedication is required. The terms are further defined
such that if, within 5 years, North Forest Parkway is removed from the City's thoroughfare
plan then the City will refund the escrow amount. If, at the end of 5 years, North Forest
Parkway is still on the City's thoroughfare plan then the City will use the escrowed funds to
re-locate the gas line.
6. The median located in Chestnut Oak Circle does not appear to meet our minimum standard
(ie. ROW, pavement width, emergency vehicle turning radius, etc).
7. FYI — Additional easement may be required at time of Final Plat based on construction
document detail.
8. FYI — Depending on the phasing of the build out of this development, temporary emergency
vehicle turn-around may be required in some locations.
9. Is additional ROW needed at any intersections to avoid fences being built in the site
triangles? The City is in the process of transitioning from the existing 20-ft site triangle to
AASHTO standards.
