The following information corresponds to the staff review comments dated October 23, 2003: Planning (Jennifer Reeves) 1. Please find attached the completed Shared Parking Study Form and the filed Shared Parking Agreement for this project. Landscaping /Streetscape (Jennifer Reeves) ;2. Note 14 was added to the General Notes on the Site Plan regarding established grass. 3. As per our discussion, the dwarf variety of wax myrtle is an approved screening shrub as per the College Station Plant List. The height of the shrubs has been revised on the landscaping plan (i.e. height: 30" changed to 36 "). 4. The proposed AC units will be relocated and place on top of the proposed covered walkway between the two budding. They will not be visible from the R.O.W. Engineering (Carol Cotter) 1. Note 15 was added to the General on the Site Plan regarding the existing and proposed easements. 2. The "shared" fire lane with the adjacent property has been in place for at least 15 years. The Twin City Church of Christ provides this shared fire lane for the McCord building and in return, the McCord property allows shared parking; therefore, we both "need" each other to remain in compliance with parking and fire code requirements. 3. Please find the easement dedication sheet and associated forms of the proposed public utility easement for the fire line and water meter. The P.U.E. has been added to the site plan.

The existing and proposed meters have been shown on the site plan and the new water meter will be within PUE. 5. The water service lines to the existing and proposed building have been shown on the drawings. 6. Because this hydrant will be located at the end of a line, a "fire hydrant type" was not designated. A fire hydrant detail has been added to the construction standard details. 7. Two additional cleanouts have been added to the long run of wastewater service line. 8. The discharge is located at least 15 feet from the property line and the grade between the discharge point and property line is very flat. Therefore, it is my professional opinion that the stormwater discharge will return to sheet flow prior to existing the project. 9. Silt fence is to be place along the property line and down stream of the detention pond discharge point. As long as the contractor maintains the silt fences, no silt should be discharged onto the adjacent property owners. Electrical(Ronnie Bolin) 1. The developer has been informed and made aware of the City's electrical requirements. Miscellaneous 1. See Note 1 of the Landscaping Plan. 2. See Note 1 of the Landscaping Plan.
