Subject: RE: OT 12 plat
Bill,
The plat for Block 12, Phase 1 has been signed and I'm just summarizing a few items from our
conversation this morning to move forward on getting the site plan completed (and thereby
releasing the building permits for Lot A on the plat).
I appreciate receiving the updated copies of the site plan as we've continued our review. A
.PDF of the changes below will suffice to complete review of the site plan.
1. With the revision to the setbacks on the plat, the same revision should be reflected
throughout the site plan. I believe this change impacts Sheets 2, 4, 5 and 11.
2. Landscaping: Sheet 11 shows a total of 4 required trees that lie outside of the right-
of-way. Three trees are found on Lot 7 and one is located across the alley from Lot 1.
For site plans that show required trees outside of common areas or right-of-way, we use
landscaping easements to ensure their long-term survival. Megan and I are comfortable
with them being platted on future plats for this area, but they should be shown on
Sheet 11 of the site plan.
3. Lighting: The lighting comment on Sheet 1 of the site plan and under Note 8 of the "ARB
plan" should be revised to accurately reflect Section 4.17. The three elements that
need to be noted in this case are:
a. All proposed lighting will not exceed 3,000 lumens.
b. Spillover lighting onto public roads and residential property shall not exceed
one-half foot candle.
c. All outdoor lighting shall be arranged or shielded to reflect light away from
adjoining residential districts and away from adjacent roads.
The current note addresses lighting above 3,000 lumens (which is not proposed here) and
incorrectly implies that the spillover limit and the requirement to arrange lighting
away from residential districts and roads is associated with the number of
lumens. This is not the case. The requirements for both spillover and the arrangement
of lighting apply regardless of the number of lumens.
Thanks,
