The major site plan amendment for the Olivia and Sons has been reviewed. Because the application is a
major amendment to an existing site plan, the following comments are final site plan comments.
A. SDP - 2008 -00059
1. A WPO plan for this property will need to be approved before the site plan can be. No
information regarding the water protection plan for the proposed addition has been provided.
Detention appears to be provided for the industrial park through the use of a facility adjacent to the
FedEx facility. However, the building addition will increase the discharge from the site into the
downstream system. The applicant must either perform an analysis of the downstream storm
sewer network, or provide onsite detention. Stormwater quality will also need to be considered in
the WPO plan.
(Rev. 1) A WPO plan has been received for water quality measures but not for erosion and
sediment control. The applicant claims that land disturbances will be under 10,000sf and will
not require an ESC plan. Comments regarding the WPO plan will appear in a separate letter.
2. Please show all existing utility lines on the plan.
(Rev. 1) Comment not addressed. I do not see where the underground electric line is located.
3. Sight distance needs to be shown from the parking lot entrance onto Five Springs Road. It appears
it may be necessary to adjust the grading on site to obtain adequate sight distance looking to the
north. A vertical profile of the sight line may be required.
(Rev. 1) The required sight distance for this entrance is 10 x the speed limit of the road, not
100ft. After a closer inspection, it does not appear that adequate sight distance is present at this
entrance. But since no improvements will be made to the existing entrance and parking areas,
correcting the sight distance issue will not be required with this plan. [DM]
4. It appears a dumpster or trash compactor is needed for the site. Please provide one on the plan.
(Rev. 1) The dumpster pad must be placed so that water does not run through, but away from,
the pad. The proposed location would also limit the available sight distance for the entrance as
well. [18- 4.12.19.b]
5. (Rev. 1) Comment has been addressed.
