Ene Walter, CIVIl Engmeer
SUBJECT
ZON2008-00027, McqUlllIan Development Issues Meetmg
PublIc Works Engmeermg Comments
The subject applIcatlOn mvolves tax lot 4500, located at 5005 Mam Street The applIcant has
subrrutted plans to dISCUSS creatmg a charter school
ApplIcant's QuestIons:
1. Currently the north plantIng buffer is 12 feet Wide. Would mfilling the parkmg places
on the northeast corner and the northwest comers be acceptable? In additIon we
would add a planted safety Island m the center of the parkmg lot. Between these two
addItIons we would be addmg approxImately 600 square feet of plantmg.
Plannmg Department WIll respond to tlus questIOn
2. The property on the east and west SIdes are zoned commercial. Can we prOVIde extra
dense plantmg to adjust for the lack of the reqUIred 30 feet of plantmg buffer?
Plannmg Department WIll respond to tills questIOn
3. The property on the south IS zoned reSIdentIal. May we prOVIde a solId wood fence
plus Arbor. Vidus to create an adequate buffer?
Plannmg Department WIll respond to tills questIOn
4. Tbe current SIdewalk at tbe entry to the school IS 4 mches mstead of the reqUIred 6
mches. May we add a 4 mch hIgh striped asphalt "road bump" style walk way between
the mam entry and the public SIdewalk? ThIS stnpped walk would cross the safety
Island m the center of the parking lot.
Plannmg Department WIll also respond to thiS questlOn From a PublIc Works Engmeenng
standpomt, ilie proposed walkway Will be acceptable If ilie engmeer or arcilltect can
demonstrate tlIat tlIe raIsed walkway WIll not change the eXlstmg SIte dramage
5. We would like to prOVIde vehicular access off of South 49th place and dImlDlsh the use
of the current curb cut on Main Street. Is thiS acceptable?
Plannmg, TransportatIOn, and Fire Departments may have addltlOnal comments From a
PublIc Works Engmeenng standpomt, tlus IS acceptable If applIcant successfully obtams
legal access elilier by acqumng ilie necessary property area (or pnvate access easement)
needed to construct ilils access from ilie adJommg pnvate property(s) to S 49th Place
