Project: STOP AND STORE MINI-STORAGE (SP)-SITE PLAN (0-186)
PLANNING
1. Please call out the Harvey Road ROW on the site plan.
2. Just to clarify-there is an existing pipeline running under the front
property line?
3. The ordinance requires an end island at both ends of every parking row.
Please add end islands for the parallel spaces and to the office side of the

striped.
7. Please locate existing curb cuts on the same and opposite side of the
street to determine the separation distances from the proposed curb cut.
8. Please indicate the driveway throat length. Harvey is a major arterial so a
throat length of 55 feet is required.
9. A 6-foot privacy fence is required between commercial and residential
developments. Please include a fence on the plans.
10. The proposed water meter needs to be in an easement.
11. Please show how the buildings will receive electricity (e.g., underground
lines, meter, etc.).
12. Landscape points are calculated by total site area, which would be 81,457
sq.ft. Please make this adjustment in the Landscape Analysis.

selected parameters can be evaluated. Due to the contour of the site and
surrounding area, you need only analyze the project site.
2. Table 3 in the drainage report does not appear to be accurate.
3. This project will be expected to ensure that post-development runoff is
equal to or less than pre-developed conditions, at least for the 25-year
rainfall event. Calculations are made for all events as stated in the design
manual.
4. Please provide a detail of the design outfall structure and discharge
properties.
5. Please provide a drainage easement for the runoff discharging to the
adjacent property. If the outfall discharges immediately to the stream,
such as at the southwest property corner, no easement is necessary.
Energy dissipation may be required depending on the design discharge
velocity.
6. Please ensure that the corner(s) of the concrete slab does (do) not
impede the flow of the stream in any way.
7. Your TXDOT permits have been submitted (as is) with a note in the cover
letter stating that the submitted drawings may change but any changes
would not affect the ROW area.

1. Please show the location of the proposed privacy fence that is required between
commercial and residential developments.
2. In the water and sanitary sewer legend, please include the minimum, maximum,
and average water demands in gallons per minute.
3. Based on the "additional requirements" in Section 10.2 of the Zoning Ordinance,
specifically subsections a, e, and f, staff is asking for a minimum aisle width of
20' for a one-way circulation aisle feeding the parallel parking spaces or 23' for a
two-way circulation aisle. For a different determination, the applicant may appeal
to the PRC.

1. The plans show a sewer connection on page 2. All connections on lines 8" and
greater must be made in a manhole. Please show on construction plans a plan
and profile of this connection and include the City detail for the type of connection
being made.
2. Please include a plan and profile and engineer's estimates of the fire line, as this
line will become City infrastructure.
3. This site will be required to mitigate flooding hazards to the area by ensuring that
post-development storm water run-off rates are less than or equal to pre-
development rates. If this site were on a primary stream, the assumptions in the
drainage report would be considered. Please adjust your design and report
accordingly to comply with requirements.

This is a stop review. Because several items were not included with the plans and the
buffer issue not addressed, staff will make a complete review of the next submittal. The
following comments are provided to help the applicant make a more complete
submittal.
1. Please include a vicinity map on the plan.
2. Please call out the distances to opposite and adjacent driveways.
3. On the east side of the property, two property lines are shown. Please remove
the incorrect line. The building will have to meet required setbacks.
4. Please show all easements on or adjacent to the site and identify if they are
existing or proposed.
5. A non-existing water line is being shown. Please remove it from the plans.
6. Please identify the existing fire hydrant.
7. Please identify the office area of the development.
8. Please identify the building setbacks.
9. Parking spaces 6 and 7 will have to be relocated. Because of limited sight
distances and proximity to the entrance, these spaces will create unsafe
conditions.
10.An interior parking island is required. This requirement may be met if one of the
end islands at the front of the property tied into the landscaped area by the
building.
11. Please call out the drive aisle distances where there is parking. These aisles are
required to be 23 ft. wide at a minimum.
12. In the back parking area, what is the purpose of the 12' x 24' space? A parallel
parking space would not be allowed in the current configuration. In the same
area, what is the curved path to the detention pond? If it is for runoff, it will have
to be made narrower so automobiles could not enter.
13.Will the project have security gates? If so, please show their location and swing
path.
14.This project will have to meet the new buffer ordinance (Section 8.10 of the
Zoning Ordinance). Please include this in the site plan.
15. Please describe the material and height of the dumpster enclosure.
16. Water meters have to be located within an easement.
17. Buffer areas may be excluded from the total site area when calculating the
landscaping point requirement.
