A. Site and Drainage Plans
1. The plans need a signed and dated professional seal.
Rev1:comment not addressed.
2. A critical slopes waiver is needed for the disturbance of critical slopes.
Revl: We have received your request for a critical slopes waiver and the request for the waiver
will go before the planning commission.
3. A parking space extends into the travelway.The parking island needs to extend the length of the
parking spaces in order to provide safe and convenient circulation. Please rearrange the
configuration so that parking spaces do not block the travelway.
Revl:It appears that the parking spaces on each side of the entrance of the travelway extend
into the travelway.Extending the curb to allow a 16 foot depth for the parking spaces will
decrease the travelway to less than 20 feet.Please rearrange the parking layout so that the
parking spaces are 16 feet deep and do not extend into the travelway, and make sure the
travelway is a minimum of 20 feet wide. Please provide curbing to extend the entire depth of the
parking space, not marked pavement. If this is a problem with you,please contact us to discuss
it.
4 Please provide CG-2 around the loading area.

B.Stormwater Management Plans
1. It appears that the Filterra may be sticking out of the ground. Show grading around the Filterra so
that it will not stick out of the ground.
Revl: The top elevation for the front of the Filterra is 382 and the backside elevation is close to
378. The Filterra box is only about 4 feet deep. With the lack of soil surrounding the box, it will
sink in the back and no longer remain level Please provide an 18"concrete foundation for the
Filterra unit to keep it from sinking down the hillside, or provide adequate grading around the
Filterra box to keep it from sinking.
2. A letter of approval from Filterra is iequired.
Rev! comment addressed.
3. Please show a detail of how the Filterra layout will work in conjunction with the rip rap channel
(in order to help provide proper reassembly of the unit).
Revl:Please show the configuration of where the outlet pipe for the Filterra system outlets.
