RE: Response Letter #1 for SDP202100008 Proffit Road Townhomes South — Final Site Plan
Dear Howard,
Thank you for your review of the Final Site Plan for Proffit Road Townhomes South. This letter contains
responses to County comments dated February 16, 2021.Our responses are as follows:
1. Please clarify the length of the dead end on road C servicing lots 16 to 26
Response: Dimensions have been added to clarify the length of Road C along Lots 16-26.
2. Please clarify the length of the dead end on Road C servicing lots 27 to 31
Response: Dimensions have been added to clarify the length of Road C along Lots 27-31.
3. Please clarify the length of the dead end on Road B servicing lots 1 to 15
Response: Dimensions have been added to clarify the length of Road B along Lots 1-15.
4. Roads with dead ends that exceed 150 fl. require provision for a fire apparatus turnaround
Response: Comment acknowledged. With the proposed design, there aren't any roads that
exceed the 150'. The intent of Road B is that Lots 1-8 will be accessed through Proffit Road
(State Route 649) for ease and speed of access for the emergency vehicles to respond to an
emergency at those lots, while lots 9-15 are within that 150' requirement.
If you have any questions or concerns about these revisions, please feel free to contact me at
