Avon Park II — Initial Site Plan (SDP202000050)
The initial site plan for Avon Park II has been reviewed by Engineering. The following comments will
need to be addressed before approval:
1. WPO must be submitted and approved before final site plan approval. Please ensure the WPO
contains all items from #4 and #9 of the proffers in ZMA2014000006. The overlot grading plan
can be part of the WPO submission, but it should be a separate plardsheet within the plan. The
title of the whole set should be Avon Park II VSMP and Overlot Grading Plan. Rev. 1: Comment
still applies.
2. Road plan must be submitted, approved and built or bonded before final site plan can be
approved. Rev. 1: Comment still applies.
3. All easements will need to be recorded before final site plan approval. Rev. 1: Comment still
applies.
4. [Sheet 2] Please label the existing contours. Rev. 1: Comment addressed.
5. [Sheet 2] Please show the managed steep slopes. Rev. 1: Comment addressed.
6. [Sheet 2] Ensure all applicable DB & PG numbers for existing easements and right-of-way are
shown. For example, Hathaway Street. Rev. 1: Comment addressed.
7. All sidewalks should be in street right-of-ways. Rev. 1: Comment addressed.
8. Please show sight distance lines and profiles at all applicable entrances/intersections. Rev. 1:
Comment still applies. Ensure sight distance lines are shown at all intersections (Anoko
Court isn't showing any).
9. [Sheet 3] Please ensure all applicable parking dimensions are shown and that they are accurate
and meet county parking requirements. Some parking spaces labeled 18ft are measuring 16ft and
others appear to have the measurement pointing to the wrong location. Rev. 1: Comment
addressed.
10. Per the engineering design standards manual, the minimum travelway width for private roads
with multifamily and perpendicular parking is 24 ft. This plan shows 20 ft widths. Rev. 1:
Comment addressed.
11. [Sheet 5] Ensure road cross sections match proposed road dimensions on the plan. A 43ft right-
of-way detail appears to be missing. Also, there is an alley detail, but no alleys on the plan. Rev.
1: Comment addressed.
12. [Sheet 4] Provide more spot shots in parking areas to ensure slope does not exceed 5% in any
direction. Rev. 1: Comment addressed.
13. Ensure crosswalks meet ADA and VDOT standards. Rev. 1: Why are there no crossings across
Desoto Drive?
14. Underground storage cannot be loc cd in the right-of-way. Rev. 1: Comment addressed.
15. Underground storage will need to be in a SWM facility easement. Rev. 1: SWM facility

easement will need to be recorded before final site plan approval.
16. [Sheet 4] Ensure there is positive drainage away from the rear of houses (for example, lots 1-4).
Rev. 1: Yard drains and grading will be evaluated with WPO Plan.
17. [Sheet 4] Ensure the sanitary sewer manholes are out of the wheel path of vehicles and are flush
with the pavement in the roads. Rev. 1: Comment addressed.
18. Show the driveway aprons on the plan view and provide a detail. Rev. 1: Comment addressed.
19. [Sheet 4] Ensure the grading for the emergency access road is not concentrating water and
causing any erosion issues. Rev. 1: Erosion issues and concentrated water will be evaluated
with WPO Plan.
20. Ensure trees are not directly on stop of storm pipes or structures. Ideally, they should be located
A away. It is not clear on this plan as the trees are not shown on the same sheet at the storm
pipes. Rev. 1: Comment still applies.
