DS 2-01.3.8.A: Revise the development plan document, specifically Sheet AS1, to provide all site boundary perimeter information, including bearing in degrees, minutes and seconds. 9. DS 2-01.3.8.C: Revise the development plan document to include all information regarding the existing public right-of-way for both roads. Label the width, recordation data, type and dimensioned width of paving, curbs, curb cuts, and sidewalks. 10. DS 2-01.3.9.A This project consists of 5 separate tax parcels.

DS 2-01.3.9.F All existing zoning classifications on and adjacent to the project (including across any adjacent right-of-way) shall be indicated on the drawing with zoning boundaries clearly defined. This project is located within the HR-1 zone and will required approval through the Historic Review process prior to approval of the site plan. Contact Frank Podgorski at 837-4962 for information regarding the process. 12. DS 2-01.3.9.H.5: Revise the development plan document to clearly label and dimension all areas of the proposed vehicular use area per LUC Sec 3.3.6. The site plan needs to clearly label all dimensions for the proposed parking lot in plan view, to include PAALs; parking spaces; vehicular separation (in all areas); handicap parking; overhang; etc. Clarify how vehicles will be prevented from driving onto unimproved portions of the site. Some places in this package indicate railroad ties, others indicate concrete wheel stops and curbing. The gate indicated at the north entrance may require a vehicle turn around out side of the gate in order to prevent vehicles from backing out into traffic. Contact Jose Ortiz with TDOT at 837-6730 for clarification. Provide documentation from Jose Ortiz if a turn around is not required. Revise the development plan document and the vehicular use area to meet the minimum surfacing requirements of LUC Sec.3.3.3.6.9. Allowable surfacing requirements consist of 1 of the following materials: 1. Pervious and impervious asphaltic concrete; or, 2. Pervious and impervious cement concrete; or, 3. A penetration treatment of bituminous material and seal coat of bituminous binder and mineral aggregate; or, 4. Alternative surfacing as determined appropriate by the PDSD City Engineer, provide written approval. 13. DS 2-01.3.9.H.5.a This proposed project is neither a religious nor a membership organization. Therefore the parking calculation provided is incorrect. The Correct parking calculation per LUC Sec. 3.3.4 is a Civic Use Group and is parked at a ratio of 1: 300 sq. ft. of GFA. Revise calculations and use in the parking calculations. Provide as a note the number of required and provided handicap parking spaces. Provide a dimensioned detail of a typical parking space for a parking space for the physically disabled. 14. DS 2-01.3.9.H.5.d Per LUC Sec. 3.3.8.2 in the Civic Use Group the minimum number of required bicycle parking spaces is two (2) short term and two (2) long term. Revise bicycle parking calculations. Per LUC Sec. 3.3.9.3.B.1 The short term bicycle parking is to be located within fifty (50) feet of each public entrance to a building as measured along the most direct pedestrian route. Revise plan. Provide a detail and location of the required long term bicycle parking spaces and a detail of the type of locker or enclosure per LUC Sec. 3.3.9.4. 15. DS 2-01.3.9.J: Revise the development plan document to label all dimensions for the MS&R Route, Craycroft Rd. Since the project site is adjacent to a Major Street & Route clearly label and dimension the MS&R existing and/or future right-of-way, future sidewalk, curb, etc. 16. DS 2-01.3.9.O Provide dimensioned building setbacks from the future back of curb along Craycroft Rd. and to all property lines. See LUC Sec.3.2.6.4 for applicable setbacks. It appears that the building closest to Craycroft Rd. may require a variance in order to reduce the required setback of 21' or the height of the wall of the structure (post of porch) from the back of future curb. 17. DS 2-01.3.9.Q On the plan provide dimensions of the footprint of all buildings and the height of each structure. 18. DS 2-01.3.9.R Clearly indicate the width of pedestrian circulation path (sidewalk min. width is 4' per DS 2-08.5.1.A) Per DS 2-08.5.1.C decomposed granite is not an approved material for a pedestrian circulation path (sidewalk).
