RE: Response Letter #3 for SDP2021-00009 999 Rio Road — Final Site Plan
Dear Ton,
Thank you for your review of the final site plan for 999 Rio Road. This letter contains responses to
County comments dated June 16, 2021.Our responses are as follows:
1. 18-32.6.2 Requirements of a final site plan.
a. Show any proposed ROW dedication. This will need to be completed with a plat.
i. REV 2: Per applicant's response, this will be completed with the final plat that is
under review (SUB2021- 58).
RESPONSE: Comment received.
2. 18-4.6.1 Frontage. The amenity area for Block 2 must include a private street for frontage for
Lots 8- 18. The application plan for the ZMA also shows a private street. The private street
easement must extend to the front of each lot for frontage purposes.
i. REV 2: Per applicant' s response, this will be completed with the final plat that is
under review (SUB2021- 58). Note that lot lines need to extend to the private
street easement. This also needs to be labeled' private street easement' on the site
plan and plat, not access easement'. Lots 8- 13 and a portion of Lot 18 are not
adjacent to the private street easement. Please extend the dimensions of the
private street easement.
RESPONSE: This has been resolved with SUB2021-58. While the lot lines have
not been moved, the label has been revised to read "Private Street Easement."

plan approval:
