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.

Imposed Loads

IFC 503.2.3 - Fire apparatus access roads shall be designed and maintained to support the imposed loads of fire apparatus and shall be surfaced so as to provide all-weather driving capabilities. Drive lanes to the building shall meet this requirement.

DE C&O #01 Eng Plans – FDP/PDP

All required engineering plans and studies, including water lines, sanitary sewers, storm drainage, streets and erosion and sediment control shall be submitted along with the final development plan. All public infrastructure must be substantially complete, prior to the issuance of any certificates of occupancy.

DE C&O #03 Eng & Insp Fees

All Engineering Plan Review and Inspection Fees shall be paid prior to approval of the associated engineering plans and prior to the issuance of any site development permits or the start of construction (excluding land disturbance permit).

DE C&O #09 FDP Reviews

Certain aspects of the development plan will be further reviewed during the Final Development Plan phase of the project. This includes detailed aspects of the design to help ensure that the plan meets the design criteria and specifications contained in the Design and Construction Manual.

DE C&O #11 Pavement Thickness

Private parking lots shall follow Article 8 of the Unified Development Ordinance for pavement thickness and base requirements.

Please note that only ornamental tree and shrub varieties may be planted within any easement.

[Informational - Needed during FDP] - Trash enclosures require 30' reinforced portland cement approach measured from the opening of the enclosure

Please provide a landscape table containing species and counts specific to the lot of the proposed development. While information is needed on the entire area of the PDP, we need to be able to differentiate what is specific to the oil change facility.

Proposed grasses need to be specified

Lacebark Elm and Golden Rain Tree species are invasive per the MDNR Invasive Plant Assessment. Please revise plan to adjust accordingly if these are proposed and not already existing.

Replace some deciduous trees on the eastern P/L with evergreen such that there is a consisten mix of both along the entire frontage

[Guidance] To improve screening of the auto bays, please consider berming along Chipman road.

Vertical and horizontal breaks and motifs need to be more substantial, and architectural designs should match those of surrounding buildings as much as possible. Particular attention is needed to the left and right elevations, but additional verticality is needed on all sides.

Please revise materials of the trash enclosure to better match the materials of the building. Masonry brick would be preferable to cinder blocks in this instance.

[Informational - Needed during FDP] - Add additional bollard to the interior rear of the trash enclosure to ensure the entirety of the rear wall is protected

[Informational/Guidance] In general, we suggest reducing the visual appearance of an "oil change facility" as much as possible, given the location of the building on such a major thoroughfare. Since the governing body did not envision an automotive-centric use when originally approving the PDP of this site, many comments are centered around making the proposal more appealing per previous governing body guidance on similar uses in similar situations.
