Re: Fire Lanes for Stata
Dear Mr. Record:
Your January 12'' fax showing the proposed fire lane striping for Stata was forwarded to
me for my review. The striping as proposed is acceptable as along as fire lane signs are
installed to each entrance to the to the property. However, as noted in the first round of
staff review comments, in order for the fire lane to be placed in this location the fire
hydrant and fire connection (FDC) will need to be relocated such that they are accessible
"from the fire lane.
If you have any questions, please call me at 764-3781.

We are submitting the landscape plan for the Business Center Boards consideration.
Enclosed are 6 24x36 color plots. The first one is the existing plan that was

completed at that time. We have since done a tree survey and are submitting a revised
plan using the existing trees. The second plan is the tree survey and shows the

bridgette - how much of this is mulch? in the past, we've allowed mulch as accents around trees/shrubs,
in planting beds, and in landscape islands. it's been sort of a judgement call cause grass is required in
areas not otherwise landscaped, and mulch has been included in areas considered landscaped. to me,
as long as the area around the building and in the back is grassed (except for planting beds) on this site,
they should be ok. thanks for being so diligent!
Bridgette George 06/17/00 01:31 PM
Good morning! We are still holding a guarantee for the landscaping portion of your site plan. I inspected
the landscaping last week and noticed that a large portion of your groundcover is mulch, which is not
allowed per the City Ordinance. The Ordinance states that groundcover must be "a spreading plant
including sods and grasses less than 18 inches in height." Please let me know your plans for finishing
your landscaping so that I can release the bond. Please call me if you have any questions.
Thank you!

Dear Mr. Simms,

~ I~Iw~rw►iaN
The construction for the STATA CORP project is near completion. The irrigation water meter
was originally approved as a I" meter. I was notified yesterday that the irrigation demand has
been determined to be more than a 1" meter can provide. You and I discussed this by phone
yesterday and I also spoke with Mr. Spencer Thompson as you recommended. Please allow the
irrigation meter to be increased from the 1" to a 1 Y2" meter based on the flow rates provided by
Prince Irrigation as noted below:
Average Demand = 55 gal/minute
Maximum Demand = 70 gal/minute
I have also attached for reference The Arkitex Studio letter, dated January 30, 2001, which also
addresses the irrigation water demand.
Thank you for your assistance with this matter.
Sincerely,
r
