Lee's Summit

DE Engineers Estimate

The Engineer’s Estimate of Probable Construction Costs has been accepted for this project, and the Engineering Plan Review and Inspection Fee (which is calculated as 3% of the total infrastructure cost plus a water test inspection fee(s)), and the water tap and meter setup fee have been included for two (2) water meters, a 1 inch and a 3/4 inch meter. These must be paid prior to the issuance of an infrastructure permit and/or the final processing of a building permit. $17,126.38

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.

Code Statement

All issues pertaining to life safety and property protection from the hazards of fire, explosion or dangerous conditions in new and existing buildings, structures and premises, and to the safety to fire fighters and emergency responders during emergency operations, shall be in accordance with the 2018 International Fire Code.

Miscellaneous Correction

PHOTOMETRIC PLAN. Wallpacks shall incorporate full 90-degree cut-offs to direct the light downward and so the light source is not visibile from off the property.

Cost estimate should be sufficiiently broken-down into line items, and although it is close to being acceptable, "utilities" needs to be broken down according to water and sanitary sewer. Please revise as appropriate.

The cost estimate was missing the following items: 1) backflow vault, 2) water lines, 3) valves, 4) tees, bends, fittings, 5) ADA-accessible ramps, 6) sanitary wye and connections, 7) 6 inch aggregate base for pavement, 8) final restoration including sodding, seeding, fertilizer, and mulch/topsooil.

Engineer's Estimate of Probable Construction Costs was missing the geogrid specified in the design. Please ensure the geogrid is calculated a minimum 1 foot beyond the back of curb.

Please refer to previous applicant letter. Asphaltic concrete section does not meet the Unified Development Ordinance (UDO) in terms of the chemically-stabilized subgrade or geogrid requirement. In addition, there is no specification for heavy duty asphaltic concrete in areas where emergency vehicles or heavy truck traffic will utilize. Please see the UDO for specific requirements.

The response to comments letter from the applicant references another "response to comments" letter from Kaw Valley Engineering. No such letter was received, so certain aspects of the review could not be performed. Please submit the Kaw Valley response to comments letter.

VICINITY MAP. The map on Sheet G0.0 calls out the wrong property as the project site. The correct site is the abutting lot to the north. Revise.

LAND USE SCHEDULE. On the FDP Cover Sheet prepared by Kaw Valley Engineering, revise the listed number of "Required Stalls" (shown as 0) on the Land Use Schedule to match the Parking Summary table above it (shown as 9).

DETAIL SHEET (SHEET C700). - The pavement design details for both asphalt and P.C. concrete don't meet the minimum design standards under UDO Section 8.620.F. - Add a note or dimension the accessible parking sign detail to indicate that the sign shall mounted a minimum 60" above finished grade, measured to the bottom of the sign.

DIMENSION PLAN (SHEET C300). Dimension the driveways into and out of the site, as well as the drive aisles into and out of the parking lot area. Also dimension the distance between the parking lot improvements and the adjacent property lines.

TRASH ENCLOSURE. To comply with the requirements of UDO Section 8.620F.1.c, the concrete approach in front of the trash enclosure shall be a minimum 30' in length, measured from the enclosure opening.

LANDSCAPE PLAN. There is a typo in the calculated minimum number of street trees for the site. The Landscape Worksheet indicates that 37 trees are required, as opposed to the correct number of 7.

BUILDING ELEVATIONS. - The cooler is shown to be clad in vinyl. The use of vinyl on commercial development can only be approved by the Planning Commission and City Council through a public hearing process as part of a preliminary development plan. The public hearing process takes approximately 3 months from the time of application submittal. See UDO Section 8.170.A for the list of approved exterior materials for use in the commercial zoning districts. - It appears on the exterior elevation for the back of the building that roof-mounted mechanical equipment will be in full view from the back and sides of the proposed building. In order to comply with the requirements of the City, RTUs shall be fully screened from view by raising the building parapet walls to a height at least equal to the height of the RTUs. Individual metal screening systems are not allowed on new construction projects. When revising the parapet wall heights, please take into account that the RTUs will sit on curbs and thus will sit taller than the manufactured height of the equipment. - Label the color(s) of the two canopies.

PHOTOMETRIC PLAN. The detail of the wall pack fixture on Sheet SU1.2 does not meet the design requirements of the UDO. Wall packs shall have full 90-degree shields so that the light is directted down and the light source is not visible from off the property.

SIGNAGE. - Signage shall be submitted and approved under separate cover through submittal of a sign permit application. As a single-tenant, stand-alone building, a total of 3 wall signs are allowed by right. The Seven Brew signs shown on the front and two sides can be approved administratively. The three additional chevrons and "Drive Thru Coffee" signs may only be approved under separate application by the Planning Commission. Should the "Drive Thru Coffee" copy be removed and only leave the chevrons with no text on the building to provide wayfinding, they would not be considered signs. - Show the location of any free-standing signage and/or menu boards and order boxes proposed for the site to review for any conflicts with public utility lines, easements, right-of-way, etc.
