Owner or rep.: Mr. Jackie Shifflett Date received: 17 January 2012 Date of Comment: 15 February 2012 Lead Engineer: Phil Custer The final plat for the Old Trail Creekside Phase III Phase II, received 17 January 2012, has been reviewed. Engineering will have no objection to the approval of this plat after the following comments have been addressed. 1. This plat cannot be approved until the WPO and Subdivisions bonds have been posted. To request a bond estimate, please submit a completed Bond Estimate Request Form to the county engineer after all of the construction plans have received approval. The computation of the subdivision bond will not be performed until a $250 fee is paid to the county. Before a subdivision bond can be posted, the county engineer must approve the applicant's Schedule of Completion. At the time of this letter, the construction plans have not been approved. Because of this, additional comments may be provided during later reviews of this plat. 2. The county's private street note ( #16) is shown on the cover sheet. These roads must be public, unless previously authorized. Please remove this note or provide proof of private street authorization. The following five comments assume these roads must be public. 3. All roads must be labeled "Hereby Dedicated to Public Use." [14- 302.A.5] 4. All drainage easements designations, except the one between lots 36 and 37, must include "Hereby Dedicated to Public Use." (The private drainage easement will likely need a private maintenance agreement.) [14- 302.A.5,14 -317] 5. Public drainage easements are needed on the north side of Three Board Lane and encompassing pipe 83's outlet. [14- 303.L] 6. Deeds of Easement for the public drainage easements must be approved by the County Attorney's Office and recorded with this plat. 7. Public sidewalk easements appear to be necessary on both sides of all roads. [14- 303.E, 14- 303.L] 8. Please provide bearings on all drainage easements. [14- 303.E, 14- 303.L] Some of the drainage easement lines are missing a dimension as well. 9. Sight distance easements may be required, depending on the review of the road plan. [14- 303.E, 14- 303.L] 10. After reviewing planning comments, it seems that the common area will be dedicated to the county because of the bonus density computed with the preliminary plat. Within the common area to be dedicated is a stormwater facility whose maintenance responsibilities I recommend the county not accept. The applicant should work with the County Attorney's office regarding maintaining the right of the HOA to access the facility for maintenance after it's dedicated to the county. Since this will be an active construction area many months after plan approval, the applicant should also work out language so that they can maintain the sediment basin and every other part of the property within the limits of disturbance after it has been dedicated to the county.
