A detail is required for the curb inlet to grated inlet conversion. Elevations will be required to ensure this grated inlet is located within the sump of the new driveway.

Please add a note specifying the removal of the "abandoned asphalt drive".

An 8" KCMMB approach is needed for the new commercial entrance. The extent should be at a minimum from the sawcut to the right of way line.

A profile view of the storm lines was not provided. Please provide profile views of the storm lines, along with the hydraulic grade line for the design storm.

Sidewalk and associated ADA-accessible ramps were not shown. Please ensure there are adequate details on the plans concerning ADA-accessible ramp and the required "flat spot" across the commercial entrance where the cross slope will not exceed 1.50% (2.00% maximum). The width should not be less than 4.0 feet (i.e., it can be reduced to 4 feet for the driveway only). Provide a note stating that truncated domes are not to be installed at the commercial entrance.

Sheet C.400: Please show the location of all existing easements. It appears the backflow vault is located within the limits of the easement.

A gate valve is needed just prior to the backflow vault.

Is the sanitary sewer lateral already existing? If not, please provide notes stating this will be a cut-in wye connection, and the new lateral must be bored beneath McBaine Dr.

Provide sufficient details concerning the grated inlet construction in relation to the ADA-accessible ramp. The top(s) of the grated inlet would need to be relatively flat, and then the driveway would need to rise to meet the ADA-accessible portion of the driveway. It may be necessary to include a cross section view of the commercial entrance, grated inlet, ADA-accessible ramp, and the how this ties into the proposed parking lot.

A typical section view of the parking lot paving must be provided in graphical format (i.e., a typical section view) as opposed to notes on the plans. Please see the new Unified Development Ordinance (UDO) Article 12 rules concerning pavement thickness, base, and subgrade stabilization/geogrid.

Will there be a separate irrigation meter? If so, please show the location.

Please specify a cut-in tee for the new private fire line.

A 5-foot sidewalk is required along the McBaine Drive frontage. Please label the plans accordingly.

Label the driveway width. A minimum 24-feet width (excluding curb & gutter) is required.

Provide the location, size and type of material of all proposed monument or freestanding signs. Sign permits shall be obtained prior to installation of any signs through the Department of Planning and Codes Administration. All proposed signs must comply with the sign requirements of Article 13 of the UDO.

Label the existing 15-foot utility easement along the McBaine frontage property line.

All reports and plans shall be signed and sealed by a Professional Engineer registered in the State of Missouri.

Provide the location, height, intensity and type of outside lighting fixtures for buildings and parking lots.

Provide a photometric diagram indicating the foot candle levels throughout the site and at the property lines.

Provide the manufacturer's specification sheets for proposed exterior lighting to include both parking lot pole mounted and wall mounted fixtures. The specification sheets shall indicate the exact fixture to be used.

On Sheet A200, revise the north elevation to wrap the stone veneer around the building, similar to how it's shown for the south elevation. The east elevation is missing vertical architectural features. Additional vertical detail is needed for the east elevation.

Revise the Landscape worksheet on Sheet L.100 for the open yard shrubs and trees requirements. The calculation for this doesn't include the square footage for the parking area. The open yard shrub requirement is 16 shrubs required and the open yard tree requirement is 8 trees required. Parking area can only be omitted from this calculation for schools, churches and similar large public uses, not office/commercial.

Clarify the landscape symbol for the skyrocket juniper. It seems the symbol is being treated as a shrub on the landscape plan. Depending on what this symbol is representing will determine if landscape requirements are met. For example, if this symbol represents a tree then the open yard tree requirement has been met. However, then the parking lot screening would be deficient of shrubs.

Break out the site data table to show the building area, impervious area, floor area ratio and required parking spaces by phase 1 and full build out.

Street trees and shrubs are required along the I-470 frontage. Please include this information in the landscape worksheet and revise the landscape sheet accordingly.
