The estimates must be certified by a professional engineer. The applicant is encouraged to investigate the existing access within the north open space as it may by part of the existing HOA to connect to the 10-inch PVC sewer main on W Oak St. Water and Sewer demand estimates for the project are included with the Engineering Design Report provided with this submittal. Note these demands will be offset by demolishing the existing businesses at the site. Water use data history for these businesses has been requested from Griffin Nielsen for comparison. Info Only 15 1 EngineeringAlicia Paz-Solis7/25/22 10:56 AM CommentBMC 38.410.130 - Water Rights - The applicant must contact Griffin Nielsen with the City Engineering Department to obtain a determination of cash-in-lieu of water rights (CILWR). CILWR must be paid prior to final site plan approval. A preliminary CILWR determination request was sent to Griffin on 9/21/22 and is forthcoming (correspondence attached). Info Only 16 1 EngineeringAlicia Paz-Solis7/25/22 10:57 AM CommentDSSP Section II (A.4) - Water Quality - The applicant must include a drainage plan with post-construction stormwater management controls that are designed to infiltrate, evapotranspire, and/or capture for reuse the post-construction runoff generated from the first 0.5 inches of rainfall from a 24-hour storm preceded by 48 hours of no measurable precipitation. For projects that cannot meet 100% of the runoff reduction requirement, the remainder of the runoff from the first 0.5 inches of rainfall must be either: a. Treated onsite using post-construction storm water management control(s) expected to remove 80 percent total suspended solids (TSS); b. Managed offsite within the same sub-watershed using post-construction storm water management control(s) that are designed to infiltrate, evapotranspire, and/or capture for reuse; or c. Treated offsite within the same subwatershed using post-construction storm water management control(s) expected to remove 80 percent TSS. The applicant is encouraged to investigate the existing stormwater facilities within the north open space as it may by part of the existing HOA. This project cannot meet the on-site storage requirement due to 100% building lot coverage, basement parking spaces, very deep clay soils, and lack of adequate storm drain infrastructure in the area to tie into. This project will meet Option a) by filtering roof runoff to meet the 80% TSS removal requirement prior to discharging. The entire site will be covered by roof area. More information is provided in the Engineering Design Report provided with this submittal. Info Only 17 1 EngineeringAlicia Paz-Solis7/25/22 10:57 AM CommentDSSP Section II.C - Water Quantity - The applicant must provide on-site detention with release rates limited to predevelopment runoff rates. Retention ponds must be sized based on a 10-year, 2-hour storm intensity.The applicant is encouraged to investigate the existing stormwater facilities within the north open space as it may by part of the existing HOA. The site is currently 100% hardscape and buildings and will be replaced by total roof area. Runoff rates and volume from the new roof area will not exceed the predevelopment condition, however it will be filtered using post-construction BMPs to meet the water quality standard per Comment 16. More information is provided in the Engineering Design Report provided with this submittal. Info Only 18 1 EngineeringAlicia Paz-Solis7/25/22 10:58 AM CommentBMC 38.220.080.A (2.g) - Traffic Generation - The applicant must submit a peak hour trip generation value to the City to determine whether a traffic impact study is required.

Acknowledged - a fire line plan will be submitted concurrently with the building permit application.Info Only 21 1 EngineeringAlicia Paz-Solis7/25/22 11:35 AM CommentDSSP Section V (B.10) - Sanitary Sewer Mains - The minimum diameter of a sewer main is 8-inches. Main lines shall be sized for design flow, not available slope. PVC pipe shall be used for all gravity flow main lines unless other materials are specifically approved. The applicant is advised that the adjacent sewer main located within W. Main Street is a slipped lined 6-inch Vitrified clay pipe (VCP). Upon future development, the existing sewer main servicing the subject property must be upsized and replaced. The exact extent and size of the sewer main replacement will be determined based on the peak-hour sanitary sewer demand, tie-in location, and existing upstream and downstream sewer slopes. The applicant is advised to contact the City’s Engineering Department to discuss the upgrade prior to site plan submittal. We understand that the 6" sewer main in Main Street is currently slip-lined and that a potential upsize may already be in progress as part of an adjacent hotel project. Sewer demand estimates for this project are included with the Engineering Design Report provided with this submittal. Note the increase in sewer demand at this property will be offset by demolishing the existing businesses at the site, including two restaurant facilities and an office building. We would like to set up a meeting to discuss any sewer infrastructure upgrades and potential coordination with upgrades being driven by the adjacent hotel project.
