Please remove the line shown on C1.0, east of the new building and running north to south the length of the property.

Just a reminder: Provide a professional analysis of the existing environmental conditions which addresses the potentially contaminated soil in the areas of the existing waste oil tank and previously removed gasoline tanks. If required by the professional analysis, the existing waste oil tank shall be removed and all contaminated soil shall be properly abated prior to the issuance of any building permits. All abatement areas shall be identified on the final development plan. This documentation is needed prior to final development plan approval.

Is any lighting proposed for the building? If so please provide the manufacture's specifications for each lighting type.

The handicap detail shown is not the correct type of sign for Lee's Summit. The correct type is R7-8. The van accessible portion is typically beneath the accessible sign. Also, the sign should have a white background with a green border. Please revise the detail.

It was noted that metal halide lighting is proposed for the parking lot lighting. The Unified Development Ordinance does not permit metal halide, rather LED lighting is required. Please resubmit manufacture specifications and an updated photometric drawing. If you have any questions about these requirements, please reference Article 7 in the Unified Development Ordinance.

If the contract is used in lieu of the estimate, we need to have a signed contract with itemized units, unit costs, extended cost, and all other items necessary to determine the total project valuation. FYI--this fee will be required before the Final Development Plan can be approved.

An Erosion and Sediment Control Plan was missing from the submittal. An Erosion and Sediment Control Plan is required for any project where the total land disturbance is greater than 2000 square feet.

A sealed Engineer's Estimate of Probable Construction Costs should accompany your final submittal drawings. The Engineering Plan Review and Inspection Fee is based on this amount, and is calculated at 3% of the total project cost. Please include an itemized estimate for the total project cost, less the actual building, water lines less than 2", trees/shrubs, and lighting. The cost estimate should include, but is not limited to, 1) parking lot construction, 2) curb and gutter, 3) subgrade preparation, 4) grading, 5) sanitary sewer lateral and connection, 6) water lines greater than 2" diameter, 7) public sidewalks and private sidewalks adjacent to public sidewalks (i.e., the paver stone sidewalk discussed in Note 13), 8) commerical entrances, 9) private paver stone construction, and 10) erosion and sediment control. The cost estimate should be broken down according to line item, units, total units, unit cost, and extended cost.
