I have the following comments: 1. It appears that SDP-2005-81 was a Preliminary Site Plan. A preliminary site plan cannot be amended. So,your request is for a letter of revision to SDP-2008-06(which was a minor amendment to SDP-2006-09). 2. Please note the following information on the plan: overall pole/fixture height and pole/fixture color. 3. Please note on the plan the light loss factor(maintenance factor)used for calculating the photometrics. To meet ordinance requirements,the LLF must equal 1.0. If 1.0 was not used, please revise the photometric plan accordingly. 4. Add the standard lighting note to the plan:Each outdoor luminaire equipped with a lamp that emits 3,000 or more initial lumens shall be a full cutoff luminaire and shall be arranged or shielded to reflect light away from adjoining residential districts and away from adjacent roads. The spillover of lighting from luminaires onto public roads and property in residential or rural areas zoning districts shall not exceed one-half footcandle. 5. Please show on the plan the lot line that runs close to the parking lot on the east side of the property. Show light levels out to the property line and ensure that illumination does not exceed .5 fc at the property line. 6. Include a note on the drawing stating that no trees will damaged or removed as a result of the lighting. Please forward me 2 copies of revised plans addressing these comments at your earliest convenience. If you have questions, feel free to contact me.

I previously met with Sarah Baldwin and she determined that this project fell under the conditions of a Letter of Revision. The purpose of this revision is to install additional parking lot lighting throughout the Visitor Center parking lot to enhance pedestrian safety. The lighting consist of pole lights in the parking areas and bollard lighting in the pedestrian areas. The bollard lights are well below the 3,000 lumen limit that requires approval, however they are shown on the photometric to illustrate the entire lighting project. The area to be lighted is well away from public roads and residential areas therefore the impact should be minimal. I have included the photometric plan as well as the cut sheets for the lighting for your review. Enclosed with this letter please find the following: 1 copy - Letter of Revision Application and Fee 4 copies—Photometric Plan and Cut Sheets Based upon the information provided in this letter of revision and the revised drawings we respectfully request the County's approval of this plan revision.
