If the church refuses to build the new southern access on NW Summit Drive, staff requests letter from the church acknowledging that they understand there will likely be increased traffic traveling through their parking lot going to the Chipman Road in order to go south on View High or east on Chipman Road.

Plans seem to indicate that the parking lot improvments on the church side of the de3velopkment are included with this application. However, i talks with staff and your response letter it is indicated that these are future improvements to be done by the church. If these are not included with this application, all dimentions and linework should be greyed/removed to indicate future installation.

The eastern mid-block crossing is not acceptable as it is unexpected and not at a driveway. Please move this crossing to line up with the drive on the east side of the building.

The path along View High will need to be a 10 FT Shared Use Path rather than a 10 FT sidewalk.

A full review of the TIS was not completed. Further comments on the TIS will be forthcoming from traffic at a later time.

Address how trip generation is handled for pickleball courts, could be 490 - Tennis Courts or 495 - Recreational Community Center and included in the square footage of the building.

I think the discrepancy on the square footage of the building has been resolved. The TIS shows 157,181 SF and sheet 1 of the plans showed 164,081 SF. The difference is 6,900 SF which is the commercial building. Disregard previous comment.

We would like to see the church access moved from Ashurst to directly across from the Commercial building access. If the church is opposed to removing the existing access, they can keep that access in addition to the new access. Without the new access point, the church can expect to receive a lot of cut-through traffic leaving the sports complex to get to the signal at Chipman.

In the Traffic Study, where it mentions a median break I would prefer that is more specific and called either a 3/4 access or a Left-In-Right-In-Right-Out. It is mentioned earlier in the report so this is just a clarification in case someone jumps right to the Recommendations page.

Miscellaneous Correction

These comments have been modified on 12/19/24 to address the initial review comment and the discussion had between staff and the applicant. I am just updating these to reflect the current understanding. One additional item needed was clarification on when the additional stalls on the church site would be provided. These edits were made prior to the review of the items resubmitted on 12/19/24.

Miscellaneous Correction

Initial Comment: Confirm that you are providing adequate ADA parking. Also, update the parking notes on C100 to include those stall counts. Discussed Verbally 12/19: The comment was redundant. The table on Sheet C100 needed updated to reflect the ADA stall count being provided.

Miscellaneous Correction

Initial Comment: Provide ADA stall dimensions. Addressed Verbally 12/19: Staff and Applicant discussed the addition of a dimension on an ADA stall to be called out as typical.

Miscellaneous Correction

Initial Comment: I assume you are planning on preserving some existing vegetation along the east side. Please show an outline and a rough estimate of the amount of trees you are intending to keep. Addressed Verbally 12/19: Staff and Applicant discussed the addition of a hatched area depicting the existing vegetation intending to be preserved.

Miscellaneous Correction

Initial Comment: Staff is not supportive of waiving the fence requirement to the south. Even though a 6-ft. tall fence is not going to conceal a >30-ft. tall building, it is also about providing a physical barrier between such differing land uses. Addressed Verbally 12/19: Applicant stated this is understood and they will either move forward with the modification request or be agreeable to additional landscaping. (Please correct me on this if I'm incorrect or misunderstood.)

Miscellaneous Correction

Initial Comment: Your response letter stated the north/south drive adjacent to the church will be public, but the landscape plan calls it out as private. Addressed Verbally 12/19: Applicant stated the landscape plan will be updated.

Miscellaneous Correction

Please note that signs are shown for illustrative purposes only.

Miscellaneous Correction

Initial Comment: Confirm adequate width is being provided in landscaping islands for the trees being proposed - minimum of 10-ft. is required. Addressed Verbally 12/19: Applicant stated the deciduous trees will be removed and evergreens and/or shrubs will remain.

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.

Fire Lanes - Marking

IFC 503.3 - Where required by the fire code official, approved signs or other approved notices or markings that include the words NO PARKING—FIRE LANE shall be provided for fire apparatus access roads to identify such roads or prohibit the obstruction thereof. The means by which fire lanes are designated shall be maintained in a clean and legible condition at all times and be replaced or repaired when necessary to provide adequate visibility. Areas along fire lanes and in front of hydrants shall be posted.

FDC

IFC 903.3.7 - Fire department connections. The location of fire department connections shall be approved by the fire code official. Connections shall be a 4 inch Storz type fitting and located within 100 feet of a fire hydrant, or as approved by the code official. Show the location of the FDC.

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. Confirm with Water Utilities that the area water infrastructure will supply the required fire flow per IFC Table B105.1(2) with a 50% reduction for the automatic sprinkler system. 12/11/20- Still to be determined.

Misc.

The 6,900 S.F. building may need additional fire protection based on use.

Miscellaneous Correction

An automatic fire sprinkler system is required for the building. Show the location of the sprinkler main going to the building.

The church parking lot should tie in on the new street across from the commercial property. Once this connection is made, the driveway on Ashurst should go away.

A sidewalk connection should be added on the west side of the development into the church parking lot.

A traffic Study is required. KCMO should also review the TIS and any requirements from them will need to be submitted to the City.

Sidewalk on the north side of Ashurst approaching View High appears to be within 2 FT of the back of curb and therefore should transition to 6 FT wide. Also the tie-in to the ramp is not compliant and will need to be adjusted.

A 10' shared use path will be required along View High for the extent of the properties being developed.

If shared parking is proposed, sidewalks should be built to connect parking lots to both buildings.

General: • Please label the rights-of-way throughout the plan set. • Please indicate whether sidewalk is existing or proposed. • Please include pavement section(s) and indicate location.

Sheet C.100: • Please replace the PW Inspection information with Development Services in the Utility Company list. • Please revise the Site Improvement Storm Water Detention Note to reflect this project. • Please revise the utility labels for clarity.

Sheet C.100: Please show and label the detention basin.

Sheet C.206: Please show and label, with dimensions and elevation, the emergency spillway.

Miscellaneous Correction

Provide a rezoning exhibit and a legal description of the property being rezoned.

Miscellaneous Correction

Provide ADA stalls.

Miscellaneous Correction

The north arrow on sheet C.100 is covering some text. Please scoot it over.

Miscellaneous Correction

Provide individual parking stall width on the conceptual commercial.

Miscellaneous Correction

Provide setbacks to the south & east property lines on the conceptual commercial.

Miscellaneous Correction

Provide setbacks to the outdoor soccer field.

Miscellaneous Correction

Provide a parking memo justifying the amount of parking spaces provided.

Miscellaneous Correction

Not all parking stalls meet UDO requirements. Stalls shall be 9ft. wde by 19-ft. long. Also, an interpretation has been made and enforced in the past that no part of the curb shall be included in those measurements.

Miscellaneous Correction

Provide setback dimensions to the parking lots.

Miscellaneous Correction

With the church parking lot being expanded, all new stalls shall meet current code requirements. Dimension this on the plan.

Miscellaneous Correction

Although the landscaping is conceptual, it looks quite sparse. I suggest double checking the code requirements because you will be required a High Impact buffer along the east side which could affect the proposed grading or require a modification.

Miscellaneous Correction

Given modifications will be requested for the amount of metal proposed, staff highly suggests increasing the amount of visual interest in the building by providing varying roof heights, vertical relief through insets, and perhaps more color. It is also recommended to double check the calculations concerning percentage of material types as some seem off.

Miscellaneous Correction

As a heads up on some items - all roof top equipment must be screened on all sides, people will probably ask about the lighting given the proximity to residential, and light poles are capped at 15-ft. in height when located within 100-ft. of a residential district or use.

Miscellaneous Correction

Questions: Is the north/south drive adjacent to the church private or public? Will there be any proposed fencing? If yes, can you provide a fence detail? For the sidewalk to the south of the parking stalls abutting the building, is it possible to connect that into the sidewalk going east to provide better pedestrian accessibility?

Miscellaneous Correction

If there is a shared parking agreement with the church being proposed, you must provide pedestrian connections to get across the street.

Miscellaneous Correction

I know you may not have all your sign specs narrowed down yet, but if you do and would like any modifications (quantity, size, etc.) we can roll that into the PDP. Otherwise, you will have to go back to Planning Commission at a later date for any modifications to the sign code.
