1) A fire apparatus access road is required and the access road must provide a minimum of 20 ft
travel way if structure is equal to or less than 30 ft tall and 26 ft. wide travel way if the structure
is over 20 ft. tall. The fire apparatus road must provide access to all sides of the ground level
within 150 feet of the road.
2) Based on right of way width proposed for the roads, 26ft, each side of the road will need to be
marked no parking. Please indicate the location of the signs on the road plans.
3) The dead end with the cul de sac for Road A requires an approved turn around. A cul de sac
utilized as a turn around must provide a minimum of 96 ft. diameter. The plans only indicate a
90 ft diameter, so it fails to meet this standard.
4) It appears the site is outside of the water service area. Please place a note on the plan
identifying the closest water source suitable for fire suppression operations.
ARB had no objection.
Engineering plan review staff are available from 2-4 PM on Thursdays, should you require a
meeting to discuss this review.
Process:
After approval, plans will need be bonded. The bonding process begins when the plan is
approved, and the applicant submits a bond estimate request form and fee to the Department of
Community Development. A plan reviewer will prepare estimates and check parcel and
easement information based on the approved plans. The County's Management Analyst will
prepare bond agreement forms, which will need to be completed by the owner and submitted
along with cash, certificates or sureties for the amounts specified. The agreements will need to
be approved and signed by the County Attorney and County Engineer. This may take 2-4 weeks
to obtain all the correct signatures and forms.
Stormwater Management Facilities Maintenance agreements will also need to be completed and
recorded. The County's Management Analyst or other staff will prepare the forms and check for
ownership and signature information. The completed forms will need to be submitted to the
County, who will record the agreement.
After bonding and agreements are complete, county staff enters project information in a DEQ
database for state application processing, if a DEQ permit is required. DEQ reviews the
application information based on local VSMP authority approval. At this time, the DEQ portion of
the application fees will need to be paid directly to the state. For fastest processing, this is done
electronically with the emails provided on the application. DEQ should notify applicants with

instructions on how to pay fees. When DEQ approves the application, they will issue a permit
coverage letter, which must be posted at the construction site.
After DEQ coverage is issued, via the coverage letter, the County can hold a pre -construction
conference. Applicants must complete the request for a pre -construction conference form and
pay the remainder of the application fee. The form identifies the contractor and responsible land
disturber, and the fee remaining to be paid. This will be checked by county staff, and upon
approval, a pre -construction conference will be scheduled with the County inspector. At the pre -
construction conference, should everything proceed satisfactorily, a joint VSMP and grading
permit will be issued by the County so that work may begin.
County forms can be found on the county website forms center under engineering;
