"= ti - 7 `t -�.s T CC k� This letter is in response to your comments for the above referenced project. The following information corresponds to the staff review comments dated January 14, 2003: Planning (Jennifer Reeves) 1. Victoria Drive has been labeled on the location map. ✓ 2. A note has been added to show that inside dimensions of dumpster storage area is 12 -ft. minimum. 3. The distance to the existing driveway /street that are opposite and adjacent to the proposed driveway have been added to the drawing. 1. Please note that the distance for the opposite right driveway (38') for the Victoria Ave. driveway does not meet City standards. The driveway was place at this location for several reasons. First, I believe that the amount of traffic that will be generated by this development requires that the driveway be located as far away from the intersection of Victoria Ave. and Graham Road. This will keep the traffic entering this development from interfering with the traffic flow at the intersection. Second, the opposite right driveway is what I would consider a low volume driveway. The opposite right driveway accesses a storage /parking yard. Therefore, the driveways being offset should not greatly affect traffic flow into either development and the intersection of Victoria Ave. and Graham Road. Finally, if the driveway is moved to align with the opposite right driveway, an existing precast concrete power pole will have to be relocated. 2. Please note that the distance for the opposite left driveway (94') for the 1Wbei $M0FFICEIProjects \1000 - Miscellaneousl024 - Kim Quach - Commercial DevelopmentlLetterMCOCS - GeorgeOl - Letter.wpd Bridgette George January 20, 2003 Page 2 Graham Road driveway does not meet City standards. The driveway was place at this location for a couple of reasons. As stated before, I believe that the amount of traffic that will be generated by this development requires that the driveway be located as far away from the intersection of Victoria Ave. and Graham Road. This will keep the traffic entering this development from interfering with the traffic flow at the intersection. Second, if we align this driveway with the opposite left driveway, we will be not be in compliance with the adjacent left driveway /street requirements. f 4. The dimension shown on the site plan drawing are from back -of -curb to back - of -curb. Therefore, the driveway entrances area 36 -ft wide. A The proposed development has been revised to show that the building with be a shopping center. Therefore, the parking analysis on the site plan has been revised to reflect this change. Also, the total square footage of the building will be 6,760 s.f. The parking spaces have been dimensioned as per your ` request. X16. A fire lane has been added as per the Fire Marshall's office request. The owner has been notified regarding the lighting of the proposed development with regard to the adjacent residential development. Landscaping /Streetscape (Jennifer Reeves) _ Ai The landscaping has been revised to include streetscaping along Graham Road and Victoria Avenue. Also, the additional landscaping has been added to the site. Refer to the Landscape Analysis shown on the Site Plan. r ` 9. A note has been added that states that the top of the shrubs used for screening shall be a minimum of 3' above the parking lot pavement elevation. J10. Note 7 of the General Notes was revised to state that the irrigation plan must be approved and install before the C.O. will be issued. Engineering (Spencer Thompson) 1. The proposed grading for the development is shown on the Site /Grading Plan. Silt fence has been added to the site plan. The property slopes from Graham Road to the southeast. Therefore, the silt fence is only required to be installed along all sides of the property with the exception of the property line along Graham Road. A note has been added to require the Contractor to install construction entrances on the site. 2. A letter regarding the drainage for this project is attached. \WbeiftOFFICEIProjectsl1000 - Miscellaneous1024 - Kim Quach - Commercial DevelopmentLetters\COGS - GeorgeOl - Lettecwpd Bridgette George January 20, 2003 Page 3 Please find enclosed the following: 1.

Box 9960 College Station, Texas 77842 Re.: Drianage Report/Letter Kim Quach Convenient Store ABEI No. 1000024 Dear Spencer: As per your request, this letter shall serve as the drainage report for the above referenced project. As stated on the Site Plan, Site Notes, the increased runoff from this development will be detained in the Westfield Addition detention facility. Therefore, no detention facility will be required on -site for this development. The impact to adjacent properties will be minimal or decreased. Currently, the entire site drains from Graham Road to the southeast and sheet flows on to the adjacent property. All of the runoff from the developed site, except for the 15' landscape buffer zone, will be collected by the parking lot area and transported to the driveway located on Victoria Avenue at which point it will be discharge into the street. Therefore, the runoff onto the adjacent properties will be minimal or decreased. As stated previously, the majority of the runoff from the site will be discharge into Victoria Avenue. Approximately 0.95 acres will be contributing to the runoff that will be discharge onto Victoria Avenue. All of this area is considered impermeable; therefore, a runoff coefficient for the area is 0.9. The time of concentration of this area is less than 10 minutes; therefore, 10 minutes is used as the minimum time of concentration for the determination of intensity. Based on the Rational formula, the following table shows the amount of runoff that will be generated at the driveway on Victoria Avenue during the respective storm events. The table also show the depth of runoff that this driveway.
