Page 2 of 2 STAFF REVIEW COMMENTS NO. 2 Project: OXBURGH DRIVE PH 1 (FP) - 02- 00500244 ENGINEERING 1. Please call -out existing floodplain and proposed floodplain per CLOMR on plat. Reviewed by: Spencer Thompson Date: December 3, 2002 i ENGINEERING REVIEW COMMENTS No. 1 Engineering Comments 1. A traffic generation study was performed by staff to verify the request that Oxburgh Drive be constructed as a 38 -ft street. The analysis shows approximately 6,900 trips per day generated by the proposed land uses along Oxburgh. A major collector is warranted by this study. If you have additional information you would like staff to review concerning this item, please submit it. The current Thoroughfare Plan does show a major collector for this street. This will change lane layout for the split section as well as the remaining portion. Transportation staff was concerned with the odd width lanes on the split section. 2. If private improvements are planned for the median, please consider platting these as Common Area. This will alleviate the need for a PIP and bonding improvements and is less restrictive. Show ownership and maintenance of lot on plat. 3. Please consider driveway approaches for the two commercial properties at this time. It is assumed the drives will be located at the median split. Also, turn lane cut -outs in the median? 4. Please show radius of street connection to SH 6. According to fire truck templates, this radius should be approximately 40 -ft or greater. 5. City staff has expressed concern that, with the amount of proposed construction in the area, Oxburgh will be "stressed ". Will it be possible for contractors to utilize the existing oil well road as a construction entrance for future projects? 6. It would be preferable to direct as much stormwater to the detention basin as possible. Any stormwater directed to the channel traversing Oxburgh will not be detained. Can the 12" RCP be taken under Oxburgh to the pond? 7. Do you state anywhere that the existing drive is to be removed after a certain time?

Home of Texas A &M University OXBURGH bRIVE PH 1 (FP) (02- 00500244) ENGINEERING REVIEW COMMENTS No. 2 1. Before these plans can be released, an easement dedication must in process for the access /PUE or see comment # 4. 2. Why do the waterline plans show structural backfill up to Sta 9 +60 and then change to non - structural? The line is in the same alignment and distance from back of curb as the rest. 3. Please provide proposed grading information for the roadway where it is to be constructed on the slope of the detention pond, approx. Sta 9 +00 - end. Is a guardrail needed/ planned? Does this alignment change the detention pond characteristics, i.e. storage? 4. Typical sidewalk sections do not match this application. Please note, Brett McCully has taken an amendment to the Sub Regs to P &Z and is taking to Council (02/09/03) to allow a minimum of 4 -ft greenspace behind the curb rather than the 6 -ft min. If this relieves the requirement for the access easement on this project, you may wish to consider it. It can be approved as such at this time, seeing that the amendment should pass. The PUE may still be necessary ( ?). 5. The drainage report is still being reviewed at this time.
