Hydrants

One hydrant near the west side of the building is all that is needed to meet the intent of the 300 foot requiremement as long as it is located within 100 feet of the fire department connection (FDC). The correct hydrant is shown on the resubmittal, but the FDC is not. The plan is approved with the FDC being located as shown on the previous submittal.

Sheet C.100: There are references to Public Water Main Extensions on the site layout plan. Please remove these labels since no public extension is required. Please submit revised sheets for insertion into the existing FDP package.

Sheet C.500: The title of the sheet is "Public Water Main Plan and Profile". Please revise to read as "Private Water Plan and Profile" or equivalent. Please submit revised sheets for insertion into the FDP package.

A half size plan set was missing.

The utility easement should be vacated.

DE Engineers Estimate

The Engineer’s Estimate of Probable Construction Costs has been accepted for this project, and the Public Works Review and Inspection Fee of $10,655.15 (which is based on 3% of the total infrastructure cost plus a water test inspection and observation fee) must be paid prior to the issuance of an infrastructure permit and/or the final processing of a building permit from the Codes Administration Department.

DE Contact Field Eng. Inspector

Contact Public Works Inspections at (816) 969-1800 at least 48 hours prior to the onset of construction.

DE Contact ROW Inspector

Contact a Right-of-Way Inspector at (816) 969-1800 prior to any land disturbance within the right-of-way. These activities may require a permit.

DE Future Repair Work

Please be aware that any future repair work to public infrastructure (e.g., water main repair, sanitary sewer repair, storm sewer repair, etc.) within public easements will not necessarily include the repair of pavement, curbing, landscaping, or other private improvements which are located within the easement.

PW Submit Land Disturbance (DELETE)

Submit a Land Disturbance Permit application and the required attachments to the Erosion Control Specialist prior to any land disturbance activities that are to occur prior to obtaining a building permit from the Codes Administration Department. Approval of these plans does not constitute approval of the erosion control plan. Contact Barton Reese at (816) 969-1800 for new land disturbance permitting details.

Provide an update on the status of Form 7460.

FYI. The monument sign location seems to be within a MoDOT easement, approval from MoDOT is needed.

Staff is okay if you only resubmit the pages that are to be revised (6-full size). Also, a 1/2 size full-set of plans is needed.

Sheet C.050: Gutter buddies are proposed within the street. Erosion and sediment control should be fully-contained on the site since this will present a street flooding issue.

Sheet C.051: Please see comment concerning gutter buddies above.

Sheet C.052: Please check with Planning concerning seed and mulch. Planning normally requires the use of sod.

Sheet C.100: Parking aisles and drive aisles are shown with separate specfications. Please note that the Unified Development Ordinance (UDO) Article 12 does not distinguish between parking aisles and drive aisles. The only distinction on pavement specifications would be parking/drive aisles and fire access lanes and delivery/freight truck access lanes.

Sheet C.100: Note 15 concerning the ADA-accessible ramps should be modified to exclude tactile warning devices. The City does not allow tactile warning devices on private entrances.

Sheet C.300: All storm sewers shall be clearly noted as "PRIVATE" either by labels and/or revising the title of the sheet(s). There were several elements of the design without the designation of "PRIVATE".

Sheet C.400: The sanitary sewer shall be connected to the existing sanitary sewer via a wye connection rather than directly-connected to the manhole as shown in the plans. The minimum distance between the wye and the outside of the manhole shall be four (4) feet.

Sheet C.500: A public water line extension is shown. This extension is not necessary and will not be allowed since the existing lots and the proposed (re-platted) lot have adequate water service.

Sheet C.500: Clearly show the water lines are "PRIVATE" via labels and/or revisions to the title sheet.

Sheet C.500: Please ensure that the private fire hydrant required to be within 100 feet of the fire department connection is located on the interior side of the lane closest to the building. This requirement will enable the Fire Department to avoid running a hose across the parking aisles in the event of an emergency.

Sheet C.500: The domestic water service is shown connecting to the fire department connection. Is this a typographical error?

Sheet C.500: Is there a specfic reason why ductile iron pipe is being proposed rather than C900?

Sheet C.500: It appears the backflow vault is within an easement. If it is within a City easement, then the vault should be moved outside the limits of the easement. If it is within the limits of a private and/or public easement not owned by the City, then a separate agreement should be submitted showing the encroachment is acceptable to the affected party(s).

Sheet C.500: If connecting the fire line and domestic service to the existing water line on the south side of NE Jones Industrial Drive, the services must be bored. Please see the Design and Construction Manual for a specific example of a fire line extension being connected to the opposite side of the street, followed by a domestic service line to avoid the need for two separate bores. Please show the locations of all required valves, and ensure that the water meter is within the right of way or a City easement. Finally, ensure that the plans specify the appropriate material and length for the casing carrier pipe in accordance with the Design and Construction Manual.

Sheet C.600: Please delete the fire hydrant detail. This detail does not follow the City of Lee's Summit standards. Please see the standard drawings on the City website.

Sheet C.600: There is an overstrike error on the bottom left hand corner of the sheet. Would it be better to delete the "toe wall detail", "rock lining for culvert outlets and rip rap ditch", and the other unnamed detail? There do not appear to be any construction items pertaining to these details.

Sheet C.600: The "typical gate valve installation detail" should be deleted since it does not follow the City of Lee's Summit standard detail. Please see the City website for the standard detail.

Sheet C.600: The light duty asphaltic pavement section does not meet the specifications of the Unified Development Ordinance (UDO) Article 12 for pavement thickness. Please see the UDO Article 12 for specific requirements. Please note that the UDO does not distinguish between parking aisles and drive aisles, but does distinguish between fire access/delivery/freight truck access lanes and parking/driving aisles.

Sheet C.601: The ADA-accessible ramp detail should be deleted. It will be sufficient to note the location and geometry on the overall site plan with a note stating that tactile warning devices will not be constructed.

Please note that the vacation of the existing north/south easement will be necessary prior to approval of the Final Development Plan.

An itemized and 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 estimate, and is calculated at 3% of the total project valuation, plus a nominal water sample collection and observaton fee of $100 per sample. Items to include in the itemized estimate include: 1) grading to establish proper drainage, 2) parking lot grading, 3) pavement construction including asphaltic concrete or porland cement concrete pavement, curb and gutter, subgrade, and the subgrade extension 1 foot beyond the back of curb, 4) sanitary sewer lateral and wye connection, 5) water lines greater than 2", including fire lines, domestic water lines, valves, meter vaults, backflow vaults, backflow assembly, meter frame and covers, tees, thrust blocks, bends, fittings, 6) storm sewer lines and structures and connection to existing public storm boxes, 7) public sidewalks, 8) commercial entrances, 9) ADA-accessible ramps, and 10) erosion and sediment control devices and final restoration including sodding, seeding, fertilizer, and mulch.

Sign permits shall be obtained prior to installation of any signs through the Department of Planning and Codes Administration. All signs proposed must comply with the sign requirements as outlined in the sign section of the UDO.

On Sheet C.001 remove the Engineer's Certification label. City Staff has a stamp for this purpose.

On Sheet L.100 remove the NE McBaine Drive street label. This portion of the street is NE Jones Industrial Drive. NE McBaine intersects at the cul-de-sac and continues south.

For any property within two miles of the airport, a Form 7460 shall be completed and submitted to the FAA, and comments received back prior to any construction.

Provide the color palette for the building elevations.

Will the mechanical equipment be ground mounted units or roof top units? Please indicate the location, size, and type of material to be used in all screening of the equipment. If roof top units are proposed a dashed line indicating the roof line and rooftop mechanical equipment should be shown on the elevations. Also, provide the manufacturer's specification sheets for proposed mechanical equipment to be used. Please refer to Section 7.220.E & F of the Unified Development Ordinance for the regualtions.

Is a detail of the proposed monument sign available at this time?

Provide the following information for the land use table: Parking requirements (provided/required), include the parking calculation that was used to determine the need, percent of pervious and impervious coverage. It appears the parking provided closely meets the requirements for retail use (150 spaces required and 144 + 5 accessible spaces provided). Explain how the amount of parking provided will be sufficient for the proposed use.

The accessible parking sign detail on sheet C.601 (right hand corner), is calling out an incorrect color scheme. The City of Lee's Summit utlizes the R7-8 model number which has a white background with a green border, please revise this note. Also on the accessible detail on sheet C.601 (top left corner), revise the model # to state R7-8.

The paving detail for the light asphaltic concrete pavement should have a 5-inch base course instead of the 4-inch that is labeled. The UDO details these requirements in Article 12.

Label the 20-foot build line along the Independence street side and the 15-foot build line along Jones Industrial.

On Sheet L.100 revise the planting guide to show the caliper size for deciduous trees as 3" caliper size, the juniper tree as 8-foot in height, and the gallon size of the shrubs as 5-gallon.

In the landscape worksheet table (Sheet L.100), remove the "new" label as it's assumed all the proposed vegetation will be new. The incorrect street name is labeled in the worksheet, remove McBaine Drive and insert Jones Industrial Drive.

In the landscape worksheet for the fields of parking lot screening. The incorrect shrub count was shown in the required box, however the correct number was shown in the proposed box, revise the boxes to match with the correct shrub number.

Landscpaping is required for the I-470 street frontage side. Add to the landscape worksheet the calculation for parking lot screening and street tree requirements.

Power lines cross over a portion of this lot, be mindful of the type of vegetation that is planted in these areas.

Is there a certification/inspection needed/required for the design of this building to be in compliance for a gun shooting range?

The North Elevation/Wall has approximately 270-feet of a flat surface. The stamped "reeds" on the bottom portion of the wall is nice, but additional architectural features are needed to break up this area. This could be accomplished with offsets, material change, exposed aggregate or possibly something else.

On Sheet C.100, move the accessible ramp located by the van accessible aisle should be shifted to the east to align with the accessible parking space. The ramp should be clear of the accessible aisle space. (Similar to how the other ramp is aligned).

Curb blocks shall be added at the head of at least the three handicap spaces with the lowered curb.
