Engineering has completed review of the Initial Site Plan and offers the following review comments:
1. Provide Tier 3 Groundwater Assessment [ ref. 17-1003] prior to approval of Initial Site Plan.
2. General (for FSP approval)7
a. Approved WPO required for FSP approval.
b. WPO plan approval requires:
i. Recorded SWM facility Maintenance Agreement.
ii. Recorded SWM facility /public drainage easement, with deeds.
iii. Note: Sheet 4 shows offsite SWM facility (biofrlter /IMP 75-56).
iv. Owner, TMP 75-56, THE PINES GROUP LLC, will need to be signatory to SWM
maintenance agreement/public drainage /SWM deed/easement, and WPO plan bond,
since SWM is proposed on this parcel.
v. Recorded temp grading /access easement, TMP 75-56, to construct /grade SWM.
3. Sheet 2: Coordinate with ACF&R /VDOT /Planning on required improvements, especially roadway width,
to existing Gold Eagle Drive, existing 60' public RW.
4. Provide section for pavement widening of existing Gold Eagle Drive.
5. Provide Aabel `No Parking' signs along Gold Eagle Drive if EP-EP paved width =20'.
6. Coordinate improvements to Gold Eagle Drive (pavement width, as example) with VDOT /ACF&R. Since
Gold Eagle Drive is 60' public RW, VDOT may partner /schedule mill -pave of existing R/W to coincide
with pavement widening, widening appears to be required from entrance to TMP 75-55D to TMP 75-55.
7. Please coordinate drain field approval with VDH /relevant local authority. (VDH may have jurisdiction).
8. Sheet 3
a. Label sidewalk width, 5' Min. required.
b. Sheet 1 note indicates no retaining walls with this development, sheet 3 appears to incl. retaining
wall linework. Please revise note, if necessary, and provide TWBW elevations with FSP.

Reviewer Howard Lagomarsino Fire Rescue f Requested Changes
1) GIS mapping shows the project in the ACSA service area, so fire hydrant service for firefighting is required with suffcient
numbers as required by the needed fire flow for the buildings.
2) Please show the needed fire flow for firefighting for the buildings on the plans.
3) Please show required hydrants will provide an available fire flow to adequate for the needded fire flow.
4) Please provide No Parking -Fire Lane signs along the entrance road.
5) Fire Apparatus access roads providing access to all sides of the ground floor of structures within 150 of the fire appartus
access road are required. The arrangement of the gym, and spa area place the gym outside of this requirement.
