Natalie,
I have attached staffs review of the PIP application for The Lofts. Let me know if you have any
questions.
Also, I have been able to work toward accommodating your request to meet an August 5th lending
deadline for full building permits. Nicole is polling our DRB members for an August 1st meeting but that
has not been confirmed. Also the easement abandonment is scheduled for the August 6th Council
meeting. Alan is out this week but I believe we can work something out as it relates to full permits for
Buildings 6 &7. I will let you know when I find out.
Thanks,
Jason

Jason,
The only comment I have on it is to note that a pad mount transformer will be located within the hardscaped area in
front of Building 3 (Commercial/retail). The developer is aware of this location and is aware that they are responsible
for proper screening of this transformer. This is at the developers expense, not College Station Utilities.
Thanks.

Jason,
Four locations were checked,see comments for each below.
1. Manuel at Dartmouth-two trees on the left side of the intersection and one tree on the right side are within the
AASHTO defined sight triangle. It is recommended that the second tree to the left of the intersection be removed or
the tree spacing be increased so that the second tree doesn't impact motorists' sight distance.
2. Driveway 1 at Holleman-six trees on the left side of the intersection and one on the right side are within the
AASHTO defined sight triangle. It is recommended that the at least every other tree to the left of the intersection and
within the sight triangle be moved to the back of the sidewalk. This will improve motorists'view of the street while at
the intersection, provide screening, and coverage of sidewalk for pedestrians.
3. Driveway 2 at Manuel -trees outside of AASHTO defined sight triangle.
4. Driveway 3 at Manuel-four streets are within the AASHTO defined sight triangle; however, they are shown to be
planted on private property. Because these have an impact on motorists'sight distance, it would be beneficial if the
trees were moved back approximately 2 feet.
All trees adjacent to sidewalks, especially those within the sight triangle and mentioned above must be maintained so
that the bottom of the canopies are at least 7 feet above the sidewalk to provide a open and clear view of roadway
traffic and not interfere with pedestrian passage.

Dave/Fred-
I'm checking the status of your review of the PIP application for the Lofts. The Site Plan was previously approved with
a note that the private improvements depicted in the ROW were for illustrative purposes only, and that a separate PIP
permit would have to be approved in order for the improvements to be installed. The PIP permit is being requested
for all private improvements proposed in the ROW other than the required sidewalk, and includes the bus stop and
landscaping tree-wells, as well as,those items listed on the application. Tony and Troy have both responded. Did
you have any issues? Thanks!
Carol
