Include a note stating that “The contractor shall contact the City’s Development Services Engineering Inspection to schedule a pre-construction meeting with an inspector prior to any land disturbance work at (816) 969-1200”.

A SWPPP report will not be required for this project since the land disturbance area is below 1 acre. Revise/remove the SWPPP language shown throughout the plans, except if a SWPPP report is intended to be submitted, for review.

Staff recommends using a different hatching for proposed concrete sidewalk, on the site plan sheet.

Relocate the proposed monument sign 10’ minimum from the northerly edge of 10’ U/E, on the site plan sheet.

Add a U-10 arrow for the unlabeled cleanout located along the proposed domestic sanitary sewer line, in plan view.

Provide an ESC protection measure, such as silt fence, along both the western and eastern property lines, on sheet C-400. Potential muddy runoff needs to be kept within the site.

Provide an ESC protection measure, such as inlet protection, to both the northern and southern existing curb inlets. Those will act as secondary ESC protection measures.
