PROJECT REQUIREMENTS
TRAFFIC SAFETY AND TRAFFIC CONGESTION:
Parking need to meet requirements
Parking stalls near Industry Way should be adjusted to meet City specs of 50’ from road line
Change curb, gutter and sidewalk to ribbon curb and swale on Industry Way
Help with storm water runoff to pipe into swale. Separates pedestrians from roadway.
Holmes had concern at one time about pedestrian safety on busy arterials and collectors, curb might offer separation/protection for pedestrians walking.
Does provide visual and physical barrier. Could still do that with a swale. Do curb cuts and a concrete trough to swale like in other locations.
Issue was taking street runoff and piping to interior disposal system. They need to acknowledge and be responsible for that and they were also missing a piece.
Holmes recommendation is to do a curb instead of a ribbon.
UTILITIES
Request they use existing stubs
Utility easements needed.
Water line is only serving their property. Would recommend that is a private line maintained by property owner which would require a meter near Industry Way. Or the City would allow
to connect back to the water line in New Day and make a looped line which would reduce maintenance requirements and would then maintain as public line.
OUTDOOR ADVERTISING:
No sign plans yet except for one shown on building. Plans for additional signs can be submitted to the Building Official.
LANDSCAPING:
No landscaping plan received yet
Could condition that it be submitted, approved and installed prior to scheduling final inspection for building.
Developer will have a landscaping obligation between the path and parking lots.
Suggest they work with Lyn Yost on screening between properties. Possibly a fence and trees to minimize sound on both sides. Exterior areas are to be used as stockyard area.
Will check code on screening of outdoor materials.
STRUCTURES AND SITE LAYOUT: Plan Complies
DRAINAGE:
Must meet PVSWDM requirements.
PRETREATMENT:
Need to find out if there are floor drains. Break room has dishwashers, etc. find out if residential size appliances or industrial.
Won’t need any pretreatment unless there are floor drains.
EXTERIOR LIGHTING: Lighting needs to be shielded to prevent light trespass.
No light trespass off site.
ENGINEERING:
Stalls between roadway and where drawn don’t meet 50ft requirement.
Southern access does not meet access management control guidelines. Without that they will not have enough stockyard on site and will need to move locations. Justified because of low
traffic counts. Preservation of site for industry use.
City could reserve the right to make it right in, right out access in future.
Ask that it aligns with RV dealership across so needs to shift 10 feet north or south.
Northern access does not meet separation from steel plant southern access. Justified through traffic counts. Loop road/northern access only used by large trucks. 2-3 in and out every
day. Sanitation trucks will need to use. Volumes are low enough to keep there.
Widths of approaches modified to meet commercial specs.
Crosswalks on ramps on Industry Way. Request to make modification more adjacent to roadway
Work with engineering on coordination of sidewalk and connection to path on New Day Parkway when built.
Agreement to store storm water runoff in swales and sidewalk.
FIRE DEPARTMENT:
Fire Department needs access after hours.
Knox box required.
Plan shows 2 hydrants in parking area in the front of building. Fire line to building and hydrant on NE corner. One at entrance at Industry Way southern entrance. One off New Day.
BUILDING DEPARTMENT:
Dumpster location is back behind a gate which is a concern. The site in Utah keeps gates open during business hours which should allow for sanitation trucks but need to clarify. Make
sure trucks have access to loop road.
POLICE DEPARTMENT: No issues
NONRESIDENTIAL WASTEWATER PERMIT:
BUSINESS LICENSE:
DEVELOPMENT AGREEMENT:
Minutes from today’s meeting were e-mailed to Design Committee on May 5, 2020.
