The shopping center is under construction and plans have been approved for a Kroger Grocery Store, two retail buildings, and three proposed building pads. The proposed Jack in the Box will be located on Pad E of that shopping center. The shopping center is located at the corner of State Highway 6, South and Rock Prairie Road. The pad site is located along the frontage road for St. Hwy 6, approximately 400 feet south of Rock Prairie Road. The contractor for the shopping center will be responsible for construction up to the Jack in the Box limits of construction as shown on sheet C2.00. Water, wastewater, and storm sewer stubs have been provided up to the pad site. Jack in the Box will be responsible for constructing the building pad and parking and sidewalks adjacent to the pad, as well as connecting utilities to the existing stubs. There will not be any driveways proposed for this development. Access will be taken from the highway and from Rock Prairie Road through the shopping center. The shopping center is providing detention for the entire project. The Jack in the Box will discharge storm runoff into a storm sewer line that flows into the detention pond. The pond was designed based on an estimated 100% impervious cover for pad E. The Jack in the Box will actually have less impervious cover due to the addition of the landscaped areas. The storm runoff will be less, so the detention ponds will still have enough capacity for this development.

The plans estimated the pad E building to be 4,000 square feet and would require 20 spaces. These spaces are provided on the approved shopping center plan and will be constructed with the shopping center. The Jack in the Box, due to its restaurant use, will require a parking ratio of 1 space per 100 square feet. The building is 2,500 square feet and will require 25 parking spaces. There will be 15 spaces added to the project with the Jack in the Box. On top of the 20 spaces provided by the shopping center, there will be a total of 35 spaces available for the Jack in the Box. There is an existing fire hydrant that was provided to service pad E. This hydrant is located near the proposed drive-through and will need to be relocated. We have shown the relocation and are going to provide an easement for this hydrant. We are also going to provide an easement for the water line extension and the meter boxes. We hope that this project will be fairly simple for review since it is for a pad site within an approved shopping center project. We look forward to working with you and your staff on this project. Please call me if you have any questions or comments concerning the plans. _ Si Rodgers, 17 GARRETT/ASSOCIATES ENGINEERING INCORPORATED comment response letter To: Natalie Ruiz City of College Station Development Coordinator From: Jason Rodgers Date: March 3, 2000 Re: Jack in the Box at Rock Prairie Crossing - Site Plan Update #1 Attached to this letter are three copies of the revised site plan. 1. The notes have been changed. 2. The square footage of the building has been revised. 3. All parking spaces are 20' long by 9' wide. Wheel stops have been added in front of the doors to prevent vehicle overhang blocking the sidewalk. The sidewalks at the doors meet the ADA requirements of a 5' by 5' maneuvering area and the sidewalks do not fall below the minimum ADA width of 3'. 4. See number 3. 5. The scale has been changed on the ramp detail. It now meets the widths shown on sheet C3. 6. The northeast parking island has been made wider to meet the minimum 180 sq. ft. of area. 7. The aisle on the east side is measured from the end of the spaces. The aisle meets the 23' minimum width requirement. 8. No sidewalks are less than the ADA minimum width of 36". Is the 4' width a minimum requirement for the City of College Station? 9. The aisle that angles off the drive through has been reduced to a 5' wide aisle to prevent cars from using it as a drive lane. It is for hauling trash to the dumpster.
