SUBJECT: Plan review - office building, lot 23,
Southwood Valley Section 3
The P~R.C. met ~ith Wick McKean and Steve Hanson on Tuesday, July 11,
1978, to review their proposed plan for an office building just off
Texas ~enue. Any revised plans should be in the Planning Office by
Monday, July 17. The following recommendations were made:
(1) The plan is drawn upside down in relation to any official
maps of College Station. This should be reoriented to avoid
confusion.
(2) The access and utility easement at the rear of the tract
should be shown.
(3) The dumpster is too far from the street and should be re-
located.
(4) Fire hydrants should be located to ensure adequate coverage
(300 feet to all parts of any building as the hose lays).
(5)~CQn~ider alternative locations of the curb cut nearest the
intersection. Locate precisely the location of the existing
oak tree in this area.
(6) It might be more appropriate considering the size of the
de~elo~ent to eliminate the intermediate islands in the
parking rows and wideri.the spaces.
