Please find our responses to the comments below in bold lettering. Additionally, please note that the following changes have been made to the plans: • The accessible parking space was shifted closer to the building. • The water service layout was updated per feedback from ACSA. A hose bib has been added to the dumpster enclosure. • A grease trap has also been added. This is located away from the drive-thru aisle for maintenance operations and thus, the sanitary sewer layout and connection has been revised. As a result of this, the street trees were shifted slightly, and shrubs were added to the front of the site. • Two (2) bike racks have been added behind the building. Detail is on Sheet C1.3. • Rear screening has been added. Detail is included on Sheet C1.3. 1. Add the standard window glass note to the drawings: "Visible light transmittance (VLT) shall not drop below 40%. Visible light reflectance (VLR) shall not exceed 30%." This note has been added as General Note F on Sheet A602. 2. Provide as part of the site plan detail drawings and color specifications for the clearance bar and order point canopy. Detail drawings and color specifications have been added for the clearance bar and order point canopy. ENGINEERING I DESIGN I TECHNOLOGY 3. Show the location of rooftop and wall -mounted equipment on the architectural elevations. Show the location of ground -mounted equipment on the site plan, or indicate that no ground equipment is proposed. RTU location is shown as a dashed line on exterior elevations sheets A201(note 25) and A202 (note 21). No ground mounted equipment is proposed. 4. Revise the dumpster enclosure detail to specify materials that are compatible with the building and appropriate for the EC. The dumpster enclosure detail is proposed to have a brick finish to match the building's brick veneer. See Architectural Plans, Sheet A001 (note 21), as well as Sheet A009 for this specification. 5. Add the standard mechanical equipment note to the architectural drawings: "Visibility of all mechanical equipment from the Entrance Corridor shall be eliminated." This note has been added to Sheet A001(general note H). 6. Revise the photometric plan to include footcandle values and cutsheet information for the bollard and building -mounted lighting. Illuminated bollards are not being proposed and this detail has been removed from the site plans. The building -mounted light fixtures have been added to the photometric plan and the cut sheets are also included on Sheet L4.0. 7. Note the lumen levels for the bollard lighting on the plan. Fixtures that emit 3000 or more lumens must be full cutoff fixtures. Illuminated bollards are not being proposed. 8. Provide details to clarify the installation of the strip light fixtures. Included at the end of this letter is the cutsheet for the strip lighting. The design intent of these fixtures is to be a low level light to enhance the aesthetics of the building. 9. Revise the photometric plan using an LFF of 1.0 for all fixtures. The LLF has been updated to be 1.0. 10. Revise the photometric plan to specify a color temperature between 2000k and 3000k for the site lighting. The color temperature has been specified to be 3000. 11. Indicate the color of the proposed fixtures on the plans. All proposed fixtures are proposed to be black. This is noted throughout the lighting sheets. 12. Include a note on the lighting plan indicating that the 20' maximum height of the pole - mounted fixtures includes any base. A note has been added to clarify the maximum height of the pole. See Sheet L3.0. 13. Revise the photometric plan to add the standard lighting note. The standard lighting note has been added to Sheet L3.0. Since LED lights are proposed, the lighting vendor has included language in Note 2 regarding the BUG rating of these LED fixtures. 14. Revise the landscape plan to remove the London Plane tree at the northwest corner of the parking area. This tree has been removed. 15. Revise the landscape plan to remove the London Plane tree at the northeast corner of the parking area. This tree has been removed. 16. Revise the landscape plan to replace the Scarlett Oak trees with a medium-sized tree or more narrow, columnar species. These Scarlet Oak trees have been replaced with 'Armstrong' Red Maple trees. 17. Note on the plan the specific color proposed for the retaining walls. A block in a muted, earth -tone color would be appropriate. The Anchor Diamond Pro Segmental Block wall is being proposed in their natural color. This callout has been added throughout the plans. 18. Show areas designated for preservation and tree protection fencing coordinated throughout the plans. Tree protection fencing is shown throughout the site plans. 19. Sign applications are required for all proposed signs. Ensure that the application drawings show canopy sign heights that allow for clear space above, below, and to the sides of the letters to avoid overcrowding the sign band. Acknowledged. We have included PDF copies of the plans for your review. If you have any questions or comments, please feel free to give me a call at 434.295.5624 or anna.fontaine(@timmons.com .
