The parking lot is finished and striped and cleaned up, according to Opie. Also, there is grass or erosion matting in the eroded places, and we know, also that grass will be established, because again, it's a City project!

City of College Station.ParkRec(RPloeger) Date: 9/24/97 11:15PM Subject: Wayne Smith. Park -Drainage Report talked to Rick Robertson this evening. He told. me that at 5:30 PM CST he received a call from the Development Services to establish a meeting tomorrow at 1:00 PM at City Hall. The man who talked to Rick indicated that the issue with the report was the fact the his data regarded the flood data plain from the Walton Report rather than from FEMA.. The city ordinance for drainage and the subsequence policy for execution and application of the ordinance were written by Dr. Robertson. The ordinance statesthat in the secondary structures,.which our project is in, the Walton Report data is to be used where FEMA has no criteria. This is what Rick did. FEMA has no data or criteria extending up the creek north of the bridge. at Southwest Parkway. The man who talked to Rick indicated that. he should have extended the FEMA study up the creek to our site to establish. a FEMA. datum point. This is not what the ordinance requires and not what our responsibility for the project required. The argumentthat the Walton .Data is not acceptable to FEMA is not totally-correct. For the data to be accepted by FEMA all the City is required to do into submit the report to FEMA and state that this data will be used where FEMA data does not exist. With regard Steve Hoemeyer's review of the report, he did. totally. review the report. There were only a couple of values that were out. of line in the 25 year and 50 form calculations, but these values. had no affect. on the required report data. In fact the report for the. 25 year and 50 year storm were not required by ordinance and did not need to be submitted since-only the 5 year and 100 year storm flows were required. Steve Homeyer agreed when Rick talked to him and`concurred that the balance of the report was complete and acceptable. The drainage report is a beneficial and appropriate report for this project. and :addresses .and resolves allthe issues required by the. ordinance. Additionally if he City is now requiring that prior to approval a FEMA Data point is to be usedthus requiring the extension of the FEMA report into a secondary structure, this action is not endorsed by the ordinance or required by the ordinance or policy and well beyond the scope of work for the project as required by ordinance. A .FEMA data point would. not change the report and would mostlikely be the same point in the Walton Report. f told Dr. Robertson, pending the results of the meeting„that before he agreed to do anything that :was note necessary, to ,discuss the matter with you. You may also want to attend the 4:00 PM meeting. Warm: regards,.

The meeting purpose was to discuss with City Staff Their comments and proposed solutions resulting from review of the Preliminary Design Submittal made on July 16, 1996. Attendents were the following: Eric Ploeger =Assistant Director, Parks and Recreation'Department. ~-"Veronica Morgan, P.E. -City Engineer's C>ffice Shirley Volk -Development Services Sabine McCul ey - Planning Department Ed Hard -Transportation Planner -Planning Department Tony Michalsky -Electrical - .Utilities Department. )im Smith. -Solid Waste - Ufilities`Departrnent _ North Barde 1, P.E. -Chairman - Municipal Development Group Earl Havel -Design -:Municipal Development Group Tom Hines, Principal -Hsi ConsuitingArchitects STORMWATER Concern was raised .regarding the potential depth ofi the water-that would;collect at the Holleman Dr. parking lot entrance close to the discharge headwall. Veronica indiated .that currentordiances would notallow water to leave the site. Earl Havel indicated that the proposed solution was: to provide openings in the curb allowing water: to flow into a grass swale and overflow the head wall: Veronca commented that the opening was limited- by ordiance .and that review of the Stormwater Calculations would be necessary to' evaluate the concern. Earl.. stated that if necessary, a drop inlet could be placed at the curb and the water could be carried by pipe to the headwall.

Concern was raised as to the amount of soil cover that would be maintained over-the drainage culvert: Earl stated that a .minimum of 18" would be maintained thus, with irrigation, the grass over the culvert should: not die and be easily maintained. Mr. Hines stated that the pipe might take an alternate route minimizing the amountof playing. surface it would be under. Earl. Havel stated that the Stormwater and Drainage calculations would be deliverd to Veronica by the end of the week. The plan. and solution was accepted. UTILITIES Veronica reviewed the layout and rasied no issues. Mr. Hines asked if the bore under Holleman would be a problem and Veronica and Shirley Volk said it would be preferrable to an open cut EMERGENCY ACCESS Concern was raised as to loop the Fire Lane. designation around Field Two or to stop the lane designation as shown. Mr. Hines stated the line was placed measuring 150 LF from the furtherst point of the building at each location. The radius needed to allow proper passage of a police car or ambulance to loop between Fields One & Two and Two & Three was determined.. when the bleachers were located. at field Two. Mr. Hines stated .that the pavement would be 6" and designed like the parking lots. Veronica said that she would review the matter with the Fire Department and to leave the limits as is for now. (On July 29, 1996 Earl Havel reviewed the matter with the College-Station Fire Chief resulting in the limits remaining as indicated.) TRAFFIC AND PARKING Tom Hines stated that the solutions shown regarding entry to parking from F.M. 2514 and Holleman Drive were follwing Ed Hard's comments on the concept plan. Concerns were raised that people mighttry to make left hand turns from. F.M. 2514 into the Parking Lot ignoring the Right-In and Right-Out islands. His suggestion was to have a right out island. allowing traffic access from F.M. 2514. Mr. Hines indicated that there was nota center lane this far up from the .Holleman intersection. Mr. Hard said thatwas a good reason. (Mr. Hines returnd to the site and saw that a center turn lane does exist down F.M.. 2514 back to George. Bush Drive. A letter was sent to Mr. Ploeger stating so and that left turns into the site from F.M. 2514 would be acceptable). No other comments were raised. ELECTRICAL SERVICE The transformer would be placed on the building porch behind the PARD storage room. Primary service would be run underground from Holleman ,and coordinated by the Swoboda .Engineering. Mr. Hines asked about the existing power and poles that cross the property HSI CONSULTING ARCHITECTS Page - 2 Meeting of July 22. 1996 ~~ servicing the houses along FM 2514. NIr. Michalsky said.. that when the time came to start construction, the service would be cut and the .poles removed by the City and no cost to the project LANDSCAPING Sabine asked aboutthe status of the :design and trees. Tom Hines said that all the trees had not been inventoried in addition to the selection of what to keep. Sabine said that she would work with Pete Venecek, Park Planner and landscape Architect with PARD, in developing the design. Sabine asked about projectsgnage. Mr. Nines showed heron the plans where the main project sign was located and that it'would be a ground sign and also shown was the sign along Holleman Dr. which is also a ground sign. Mr. Hines stated thatthe sign would be approximately the same size as~PARD standard signs. SOLID WASTE Concern was raiseds to the adequacy of the width of the bin that would hold .the dumpster. Mr. Smith stated thatthere should be approximately 2 feetbetween the container and the bin walls. 12 foot minimum width is recommended. Mr. Hines showed on the drawings where a six foot high fence is shown to screen the bin from Holleman Dr. Access to the dumpster container will be from the interior of the park with a screen. walF at the back facing Holleman: CONCLUSION Shirley Volk stated. that work could progress and that the Preliminary Design: is acceptable and she awaits the completed plans for the .Plan Review Committee (PRC}. Issues or concerns raised by the PRG could be resolved with the individual raising the issues provided and agreed upon solution was reflected in the minutes of the meeting.
