HomeMy WebLinkAbout00070807PLANNING Project: DALIN'S DONUTS - SITE PLAN (01 -59) 9. Landscaping is required for the area of the site that is being newly developed. This site will require the minimum number of points which is 500. Existing canopy and non - canopy trees on site can count toward the requirement if they are properly barricaded. 10. Clearly delineate existing vs. proposed paving. 11. All proposed paving must meet current standards, including but not limited to, materials, design spec's, width and curbing requirements. 12. Although the proposed curb cut onto Hensel Dr. appears to meet the City's Driveway Ordinance, the City does not have the authority to permit a curb cut onto TAMU property. After checking the City's records, it was determined that we do not currently maintain Hensel Dr. Your letter dated 1983 from TAMU, therefore appears to be out of date, and we advise you to contact TAMU for more current information. STAFF REVIEW COMMENTS NO. 1 1. Provide a vicinity map. 2. Provide the legal description of the property. 3. This property is not in the floodplain. Please annotate this with the reference note, "This property is not in the floodplain according to FEMA Map # 48041 C01 42C, effective date July 2, 1992 ". 4. Are there any easements on the property? If yes, show them on the plan. 5. Please be aware that signs will be permitted separately. 6. Provide a parking requirement legend. The requirement for a restaurant with a drive -thru is 1 parking space to every 100 sq. feet of building. By adding the drive -thru you will now meet the parking space requirement. It appears that the construction and layout of the parking may still be legally nonconforming, if the following concern can be addressed. 7. The current configuration of the parking blocks circulation through the drive - thru. This is a safety hazard and will need to be addressed. 8. What is the current sanitation service? Will it be changing? If a dumpster is required instead of rollout garbage cans, then a dumpster pad will need to be installed that is accessible to the sanitation trucks.

Landscaping is required for the area of the site that is being newly developed. This site will require the minimum number of points which is 500. Existing canopy and non - canopy trees on site can count toward the requirement if they are properly barricaded. Additional information is needed for the landscaping. What kind of trees are they? Canopy vs. Non - canopy? What is the circumference of the trunks, so that we can determine how many points they count for under our landscaping ordinance? For every inch of circumference the required barricade must be one foot away from the trunk. Ex. An 8 -in. tree would need to have barricading 8 feet away from the truck. The land cannot be disturbed within the barricade by any means, other than hand clearing, during construction. The barricades must be up before any construction begins on site.

This should be on the site plan. 11.All proposed paving must meet current standards, including but not limited to, materials, design spec's, width and curbing requirements. Curbing is required around all pavement sections as part of the zoning ordinance. Curbing is not a drainage issue. In rare instances, where curbing would be detrimental to the drainage of a site, variances may have been granted allowing segmented curbing, which would allow drainage and still function as a curb. As you stated in your comment, this exception does not apply to your site. We also need pavement and curbing specifications shown on the plan, which meet our paving and curbing requirements. The areas to be paved need to be shown to scale on the site plan showing that they are planned to meet our circulation aisle width of 20 feet. 12.

The driveway onto Hensel may be two -way. Per a discussion with Jane Kee, we still o need to receive a letter from the contractor certifying that the pavement has been installed to the City's paving requirements. �4.THE SCALE SHOULD BE A STANDARD ENGINEERING SCALE, I.E. 1:10, 1:20, U 1:30, ETC.
