Construction is underway at the site and we have identified some site conditions (with the Contractor's help) that we believe will improve the overall design and function of the property. Our request for revisions includes items: A. Preserve and existing 27" white oak by eliminating a new underground stormwater pipe and allowing stormwater in this area to continue to flow per it's current/existing condition prior to the initiation of the fellowship Hall addition. By preserving this tree and eliminating the underground pipe from the scope of work, we can limit disturbance of the existing site to those areas immediately surrounding the new Fellowship Hall addition. B. Provide a new "stonedust" walking path from the rear door of the connecting hallway at the new addition to the driveway at the rear of the building. This path will allow easier access from the adjacent parking area and rear driveway to the Church and provide a second (shorter) accessible path to the Church. C. Re -route one roof drain from the corner of the new addition to a path that will join the other roof drains for the building. The original site design initiated a lot of site disturbance just to accommodate this lone roof drain. We believe by routing it to join the other roof drains we can reduce /eliminate much of the site disturbance behind the existing buildings. D. Although not shown on the Final Approved Site Plans and not required for review, we also intend to route the foundation drains from the new addition to daylight at a point adjacent to Tabor Street Our application package for these four (4) changes includes the following items in quantities and format per the checklist noted on the application form: application form, application fee, final Site Plan number (as noted above), a letter describing the proposed changes, changes shown on Final Site Plan in 11 x 17 format. We trust this information meets with your approval. Thank you in advance for your help. Please feel free to call with questions or if we can provide additional information. from: kurt keesecker, aia kkeesecker@brucewardell.com brw architects T:08023 Tabor Presbyterian\ Text \03_ CORRESPONDENCE \Permit- AuthorityN110728 Tabor_letter of revision.doc
