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.

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.

Please submit an Engineer's Estimate of Probable Construction Costs.

On the Drainage Map, Drainage Areas 5, 7, 14-17 all reference Str. 1C. It makes sense that pairs of drainage areas would reference the same structure since they’re mirror images. However, they shouldn’t all refer to the upstream structure. In addition, Structures 1A-1C are all shown as Junction Boxes, which means that no overland flow will be collected. Please review the overall drainage design and revise as needed.

The standard details that were added, STM-6 and STM-7, are not the current details. Please update (although the info hasn’t changed on STM-7 it was still updated, not sure why).

The developer has submitted a document (ECRs) that covers the entire site for all private utilities. If so, then the private water easements are not necessary. Please confirm and update plans if appropriate.

LEGAL DESCRIPTION/LOT NUMBER. Revise the reference to Lot 9 to Lot 9-1 throughout the document (e.g. legal description, title blocks, etc.), as the site will be known upon approval and recording of the minor plat currently under the review process. All of the property line dimensions, lot area, etc. are based on the future Lot 9-1 configuration.

The islands in the middle of the surface parking lot do not meet the minimum island widths. Also, the trees planted at either ends of these same islands are less than 4' from the back of the curb.

FAA FORM 7460. Due to the proximity of the project site to the airport, an FAA Form 7460 shall be completed and submitted to the FAA, and comments received back prior to any construction.

30’ of concrete pavement is required to extend from the trash enclosure door. Please revise to meet this requirement.

Please review the drainage structure labels on the Drainage Map and revise as needed.

Please include the design HGL on all storm sewer Profile views.

Please review the drainage structure types on all storm sewer Plan and Profile sheets and revise as needed.

Please review all flowlines in Profile views to verify incoming crowns are at or above all exiting crowns and all drops through structures meet requirements.

Please revise the Light-Duty Asphalt Section detail to specify KCMMB asphalt Type A2. The minimum lift thickness allowed for Type 2 is 2”, which does not meet the UDO requirements.
