Water Supply

IFC 507.1 - An approved water supply capable of supplying the required fire flow for fire protection shall be provided to premises upon which facilities, buildings or portions of buildings are hereafter constructed or moved into or within the jurisdiction. Action required- Per Table B105.1(2) a IIB building (47,740 sq. ft.) with a 50% reduction for an automatic sprinkler system requires 2,375 gpm fire flow for 4 hours. The information you provided on hydrant 014-183 FH provide only 1,750 gpm on a dead-end line. Indicate how fire flow will be met. Resolved by accessing a second water supply.

C5.0 UTILITY PLAN: The backflow prevention vault should be located outside of traffic areas and where surface water will not drain into it. Please review and relocate.

C3.4 DETAILED GRADING (ADA): Correct north arrow direction.

C6.4 STORM LINE 100: Staff made an oversight on the first round of comments and should have made the comment: “Review APWA 5604.5 Inverts and Pipes and revise the inverts for storm line 100 that do not meet offset requirements (manholes 102 and 103).” While the City does not regulate private storm systems, it is staff’s recommendation that APWA design criteria are met. Staff aims for consistency and to reflect similar comments previously made for manholes in storm line 300.

General: The grading sheets seem to have been plotted incorrectly. Please review and correct.

C2.0 SITE PLAN: Why do sections of curb have different hatching? If it represents something, that should be specified in the legend. Please review and revise.

C3.0 GRADING PLAN: What is the purpose of the berm to the north of storm structure 302 and why is it outlined? Please specify what it is on the plan set.

C5.0 UTILITY PLAN: Include leader callout for (SS|03) in drawing.

C6.0 EXISTING DRAINAGE MAP: Include existing inlet labels in legend.

C6.7 STORM LINE 300: Review APWA 5604.5 Inverts and Pipes. The inverts and crowns entering/existing structure 302 do not meet offset requirements.

ENGINEER’S OPINION OF PROBABLE CONSTRUCTION COSTS: A) Item 2 should be 2” service line to match plans. Please review and revise. B) The following item numbers are “no fee” items and can be removed from the estimate: 3, 7, 8, 9, 23, and 24.

All light fixtures on properties that do not adjoin residential uses and/or districts shall not exceed 28 feet. The proposed light poles in combination with the proposed bases exceed this standard. Please reduce the proposed fixture height.

All vehicle parking lot areas and access drives in all zoning districts shall have a boundary constructed of straight-back Portland cement concrete curbing (CG-1) or an integral Portland cement concrete sidewalk and curb with a vertical face. Additionally, the use of curb blocks in parking areas shall be prohibited, except at the head of accessible parking spaces when they are adjacent to a pedestrian walkway with no raised curb. Please remove the curb blocks and add a CG-1 type curb to the 6-parking stall adjacent to the building, north of the ADA stalls.

Sheet C2.0 - Staff understand that the 2010 ADA standards allow for an 11’ van accusable stall with a 5’ aisle. However, by providing 8’ stall and 8’ aisle in this location allows for 2 van accessible stalls as opposed to the 1 proposed. The 8’ aisle is staff’s preferred option.

The planning and development department has the same contact information as codes administration (i.e. extensions Tel-1200 & Fax-1201)

Revise general note 14, located on sheet C0.1, to state that “All construction shall follow the City of Lee’s Summit’s Design and Construction Manual”.

On the site plan sheet, the leaders for details number 019 and construction notes 06 and 07 appear to be missing in plan view. Add/revise as necessary. A temporary (asphalt) curb will also be needed across where the pavement discontinues, by the proposed area inlet.

Inlet protection(s) would not be needed on the north side of the northern drive. Intermediate silt fence barrier running north-south will be needed as well across the site, on sheet C4.0.

Show on sheet C4.2 where ESC blanket/mat, or steep slope protection, will be used.

A Backflow prevention device (BFPD) will be required along the fire line(s), between the W13 existing valve and the W15 proposed 6” tee.

The domestic water service line must tie directly into the existing public 6” water main, not the fire hydrant leg. The size of the water tap and domestic service line will depend on the size of the proposed water meter. The size of the water meter to be used is determined by the estimated water demand for the building.

SS03 and SS04 are out of place on sheet C5.0. SS04 is also not part of the legend. Revise, as necessary.

Sanitary connection at SS02 must be via a 12” x 6” cut-in wye. Make sure to also label construction note SS01 in plan view of sheet C5.1.

Show the hydraulic grade line within the storm profile views.

While adding the sheet number within the title block of sheet C6.4, make sure to also indicate the (W) outflow elevation of storm structure 101 in profile view. Inflow elevation of structure 201 comes from the east, not the south.

While revising the direction of the north arrow in plan view of sheet C6.5, make sure to also indicate the (N) inflow elevation of storm structure 108 in profile view.

While revising the direction of the north arrow in plan view of sheet C6.6, correct the information for in/outflow(s) shown for both storm structures 101 and 201 in profile view. Storm structure 101 has 2 inflows and 1 outflow, while storm structure 201 has 1 outflow only.

Inflow elevations are lower than outflow elevations on sheet C6.7. How is this system supposed to drain? Please revise. Make sure to also provide adequate drop within the storm structures.

Provide/show profile views for any roof drain line larger than 6” in diameter.

Connection to existing storm structures X-2 and X-3 needs to be via core drilling. Show on each applicable sheet.

Aggregate base + subgrade of both asphalt and concrete pavements must extend 1’ beyond back of curb. On sheet C7.1, revise the applicable pavement details accordingly or add a general note.

Include the City’s construction standard details. Construction standard details are accessible through the Design & Construction manual tab located on the City’s website. Include all the ESC, water, sanitary, storm and pavement construction details that apply to the current project.

Only ornamental tree varieties are allowed within public easements. Review and verify that the landscape plan meets this requirement.
