on the application plan as lots 1-7 on TMP 90E-Al, owned by the Avon Park Community Association. Thecurrent
plan depicts these easements as "Proposed 10' landscape easement" and "Proposed 5' landscape easement" behind
Lots 23-28. These easements shall be platted prior to final site plan approval/ prior to or with the final subdivision
plat approval. This comment has not been addressed. Provide and identify these easements.

easement to the northern property line shared with TMP 90-32A, owned by Robert Spauls.
These easements shall be platted priorto final site plan approval/ prior to or with the final
subdivision plat approval. This comment has not been addressed. It is unclear if the
proposed 20' water line goes all the way to the property line. There appear to be two
different lines marking the common property boundary — a dashed line that lines up with
the boundary of 9017-Al, and a dark bold line that crosses the aforementioned line at a
slight angle. Please clarify.
4. [ZMA2014-6, 8.5.5.3(a)4, SE202020-51 Landscape Easement. A landscape plan consistent with
the rezoning and SE2020-5 shall be required with the final site plan. This comment has not
been addressed. Revisions to the landscape plan are required.

90E-A2, TMP 90E-F-42, TMP 90E-F-43, and TMP 90E-F-44. Iftrees are located within 5' or less of
the property line, the owner will remove the trees on the adjacent properties. Tree removal will be
subject to the existing property owner's written approval. This comment has not been
addressed. Identify the trees.
6. ZMA2014-6] Proffer 8. The final site plan shall include TMP 90E-Al. Improvements required by
proffer 8 shall be depicted, label, and dimensioned as part of the final site plan. This
comment has not been addressed. Improvements on 9017-Al are not depicted.
7.[ZMA2014-61 On the final site plan distinguish the exact location ofwhere the double -sided vertical
fencing and the 3-board farm fencing begins and ends. The locations should correlate to the
application plan Also, provide cutsheets for each fence type. This comment has not been
addressed.
8. [32.8.2, 14-3111 Infrastructure improvement plans. Road Plan and WPO application must be
approved, all required improvements must be built or bonded, and all required Deeds and
Declarations must be reviewed and approved prior to final site plan/ final subdivision plat
approval. Road plans must still be approved prior to approval of this final site plan. In

The Avon Park II Final Site Plan has been reviewed by Engineering. The following comments will need
to be addressed before approval:
1. [Cover Sheet] The plan number is SDP202100049.
2. Road plan (SUB202000173) must be approved before final site plan can be approved.
3. Retaining wall behind lots 1-4 must be in an easement and have a maintenance agreement
because it is crossing lot lines. Also, the retaining wall should not be inside a drainage
easement.
4. The grading behind lots 5-12 does not match the approved WPO Plan(WPO20200041)
and approved overlot grading plan. Please provide an amendment for the applicable
sheets and ensure the WPO and final site plan grading plans match.
5. The Eastern side of Hathaway Street appears to need CG-12's to cross Desoto Drive.
