Subject: Stonewater Townhomes Final Site Plan (SDP- 2009 - 00048)
The second revision to the final site plan for the Stonewater Townhomes has been reviewed. The
engineering review for current development can recommend approval to the plan after the following
comments are addressed:
1. The road plan that was submitted with the subdivision plats has been approved. (SUB -
2007- 00077)
(Rev. 1) The site plan must match the approved road plan with regard to sidewalks and
planting strips.
(Rev. 2) The ROW and sidewalks currently match the latest revision to the road plans.
Please update the site plan with drainage easements when the signature copies are
submitted to the Planner.
2. The ESC and SWM plans that were submitted with the subdivision have been approved;
however offsite easements are pending recordation. (WPO- 2007 - 00045) The approved
plans cover this site for both erosion and sediment control and stormwater management. If
this site plan is constructed well after the roads are in and all disturbed areas stabilized, an
additional ESC plan for the townhome area may be required by the ESC inspector.
(Rev. I) Offsite plats have been recorded as required.
The 2006 agreement between Stonewater and Stonehenge was reviewed and meets the
minimum county requirements for consent to allow offsite construction. The connector
road as shown on the plans may remain.
3. The public Right -of -Way lines should match the recently submitted final plat and road
plans. The sidewalk along Rio Road should be Ift within the public ROW.
(Rev. 1) Property lines as shown are now acceptable, though the note regarding a
sidewalk easement on the front of lot 43 should be removed to avoid any confusion.
Please also make sure when copies of the road plans are submitted for inspection and any
final plat is submitted that the property lines and easements match.
(Rev. 2) The ROW currently matches the latest revision to the road plan.
4. The sidewalk behind the townhomes should be within an easement allowing for access to
and from the Stonehenge and Treesdale properties.
(Rev. I) Comment has been addressed. This easement will need to be shown on the
first subdivision plat with the connecting private roads.
5. Any modification to access easements, lot lines, and drainage easements should be
reflected in the final plat and road plans.
(Rev. I) The applicant has been made aware of this comment. The drainage easement
on lot 35 is shown differently than on the latest subdivision plat. This easement does
not need to be centered over the pipe and may be located in the setback line on the
townhome lot.
6. All driveways must have at least 18ft of pavement from the edge of the sidewalk. The

sidewalk cannot be obstructed by a parked vehicle.
(Rev. l) A Eft planting strip and 5ft sidewalk must be provided on this private road unless
a waiver is obtained from the Planning Commission. [14 -410H, 14 -4221
(Rev. 2) Comment has been addressed.
7. The specs provided for the low- maintenance groundcover appear to be only temporary
measures. Please see table 3.37C of the VESCH for examples of acceptable
groundcovers.
(Rev. I) Comment has been withdrawn.
8. Please remove all road plan sheets from this set. All roads were reviewed and approved
under application SUB - 2007 - 00077.
(Rev. I) Comment has been addressed.
9. (Rev. 2) Since the second submittal of this plan, the previously approved WPO plan had
expired. The applicant has opted to include the Stonewater ESC plan in the Treesdale
application. Please remove all references to WPO- 2007 -00045 from this application.
This site plan cannot be approved until the current WPO plan for this area (WPO-
2010- 00011) is approved.
10. (Rev. 2) This plan cannot be approved until the Stonewater Subdivision Construction
Plan is approved (SUB- 2007 - 00077) and the offsite public drainage easement on the
Treesdale property is recorded.
