PLANNING
1. Concept plan was approved with the understanding that the park would be dedicated
with the initial phase of development. You now show it being included with phase 2.
Please adjust accordingly.
2. The proposed bridge is not acceptable as its own phase, as it is being shown in
phase 7. Each phase must be able to stand alone to meet ordinance requirements
and infrastructure costs should be distributed evenly throughout the subdivision.
3. Please tie plat to city monument or known platted point.
4. A temporary turn around will be required on the western end of the phase 7 bridge.

platted will require a drainage easement. Discharge needs to be to defined drainage
channel or stream.
4. Some of the off-site easements are labeled proposed easements, but are shown with
associated volume and pages numbers. Are they proposed or existing?
5. What type of easement is the 9.479 acre proposed easement shown surrounding the
plat?
6. Ordinance requires 20' PUE along back of lots abutting unplatted property.
7. Please make PUEs across the backs of lots continuous through greenbelt and/or
buffer areas. •

TXDOT
1. Access driveways to SH 40 must meet TxDOT's current "Regulations for Access
Driveways to State Highways." Regulations are primarily based on posted speed limits
and distances between proposed & adjacent access points. Where posted speed limits
are 50 MPH or more the required spacing between access points is 425'. Where
driveway spacing is insufficient joint access will be required or access to an internal
street. Appropriate data will be required for any future work/permits in the ROW @ this
site including drainage, etc.
