Steve,
I wanted to give you a heads-up regarding a maintenance access Issue that has come up on this project We had
several meetings and discussions surrounding this Issue regarding what Will be acceptable access to this
drainage ditch Before I contacted you, I wanted to find out If there really IS a problem as It was not clear at first
as the plans do show access to the ditch but thiS Will not be suffiCient for the public maintenance responsibility per
Ken and the Maintenance Department ThiS Issue arose after our Pre-submittal meeting otherwise I would have
mentioned thiS as a "heads-up" Item We are reviewing the applications for completeness at that time and not
necessarily a detailed review but I always like to give them as much proactive information as pOSSible It does
appear that maintenance access will be an Issue WIth their present bUilding layout After diSCUSSing thiS With Matt
and Ken, Public Works Will be able to approve the Partlbon application but not With their present bUilding layout
There Will have to be an easement along the drainage ditch which Will reqUire the bUilding layout to change I Just
wanted to give you a heads-up on thiS My present direction Will be to make thiS a finding and a condition stating
the easement requirement and that the present building layout Will not be acceptable Any recommendations you
might have on thiS would be helpful
Thanks,
EriC

EriC,
I spoke With the architect In regards to the access for the ditch maintenance, It appears that the site Will not work
With the unrts along the east property line We have also looked at the bUilding setbacks and Will be able to add a
second access between the two bUildings but It would only be 10 feet In Width
Let me know If maintenance can live With the two access pOints and the one being 10 feet Wide
