DE Contact Field Eng. Inspector

Prior to the commencement of any construction activities, the Contractor shall contact Field Engineering Inspections at (816) 969-1200 to coordinate a preconstruction meeting / conference with the assigned Field Engineering Inspector.

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.

Miscellaneous Correction

Site lighting not found. Action required: Provide complete design or request deferral to building permit submittal. 12/17/20 - Sheets referenced in response letter only show fixture locations. We also need circuitry information and pole base details.

Please refer to the previous applicant letter. The special meter vault for the 4 inch water meter appears to be showing "note 8" on the various views, but "note 8" is discussing requirements for a strainer rather than the features that are referenced on the various views of the meter vault. Please revise as appropriate.

Please ensure the valve shown on the bypass is clear in terms of notation, either by a legend or a note. As shown, it might be missed by the contractor.

LAND USE TABLE -- PARKING. - List the number of existing and proposed resulting number of classrooms to confirm parking adequacy. Minimum parking requirements are based on the number classrooms, calculated at 6 parking spaces required for each classrom for a high school. - The number of proposed parking spaces listed on Sheets C100 and C1005 do not match, 1154 vs 1159, respectively.

BLUE PKWY REALIGNMENT. Call out that the Blue Pkwy realignment shown on the plan is not part of this plan but a future improvement by others.

EXTERIOR MATERIALS. Label the proposed exterior building material colors.

The public sanitary sewer running from the Highway Patrol property to City manhole #39-155 should be designated as private to avoid conflicts with construction. This would require a new public sanitary sewer extension to the Highway Patrol property from the public sanitary sewer located in the northeast portion of the High School property. In addiition, a portion of the sanitary sewer 39-041 to 39-039 should also be dedicated as private.

The asphaltic pavement detail should be revised to show aggregate subgrade and chemically-stablized subgrade extending a minimum of 1 foot beyond the back of curb.

A site-specific design is required for the water meter vault since the City does not supply meter vaults for water meters above 2 inches. The meter vault should include bypass piping. The ring and cover should be a square aluminum hatch, 36” X 36”, centered over the meter and steps. The steps need to be MA Industries copolymer polypropylene plastic coated steel model PS2-PF.

Sheet C350: Where are the retaining walls in relation to the project? This sheet appears to lack context to the overall project.

Where and how will the backflow vaults drain? The typical detail for the backflow vault shows a sump, and the notes require that a method be shown how the vault will draiin. This can be via daylighting, connection to a private junction box or inlet, or construction of an infiltration gallery.

The City will not support waiving the Comprehensive Control Strategy for this project. There did not appear to be any justification for relaxing these requirements in the waiver request.

On the revised detention basin plans, please provide a prominent note that the basin must be constructed prior to any other improvments on the site, with the exception of erosion and sediment control features.

Portions of utility easements should be vacated for those portions of the sanitary sewer line to be dedicated as private. Please see comment number 1 for specific information concerning these vacates.

Please ensure that all private sanitary sewer lines are connected to public mains via a wye rather than a direct manhole connection. This applies for all sanitary sewer lines less than 8 inches in diameter.
