Megan,
I have reviewed the referenced site plan and have the following comments:
1. Previous comments on the preliminary plan attached below have not been addressed. This site does not have
adequate sight distance for the design speed of 35 mph on the Belvedere Blvd road plan.
2. The Belvedere Place profile begins the 50 foot vertical curve at station 14 +70 but the edge of existing pavement is
at 14 +75. The 50 foot vertical curve needs to be shifted back 5 feet.
The placement of trees needs to be a minimum of 30 feet back from the entrance.
Please let me know if you have any questions.
Thanks
Joel

Megan,
I have reviewed the referenced plan and have the following comments:
1. The design speed on Belvedere Blvd is 35 mph and has a corresponding sight distance of 390 feet. The proposed
entrance to the left shows a sight distance of 335 feet.
2. The 335 foot sight line has vertical obstructions and will be worse with the corrected 390 foot sight line is applied. In
addition, the building footprints are in conflict with the 390 foot sight line.
3. There also appears to be a sight line obstruction when by the two buildings closest to the entrance to The Reserve
at Belvedere.
Please let me know if you have any questions.
Thanks
Joel
