Ms. Michele McPherson <br /> • September 19, 2000 <br /> Page Two <br /> 3. There is an emergency overflow elevation shown at 877 for the proposed pond. <br /> The remainder of the top of the pond needs to be at least a half a foot above the <br /> emergency overflow. Currently, the way the grading plan is shown, it appears <br /> that the top of the pond is entirely at the same elevation. <br /> 4. There is a small diameter pipe which starts in a catch basin in the western <br /> portion of the driveway that will direct flow to the pond. The remainder of the site <br /> is proposed to drain overland to the pond. Somewhere there needs to be a <br /> swale to ensure that the overland drainage will, in fact, make it to the pond. <br /> 5. At the staff review meeting, Fire Chief Bruce West indicated that with the future <br /> expansion, the size of the building will necessitate a fire lane be constructed so <br /> that the Fire Department can get to within 150 feet of all portions of the building. <br /> There is a fire lane shown along the north side of the pond or south side of the <br /> future expansion for this purpose. Again, no drainage calculations have been <br /> submitted so the actual size of the pond has not been verified. However, there <br /> seems to be some conflict between the start of the pond slope and the <br /> requirement for the 20-foot wide fire lane. In addition, any fencing in this area <br /> would encumber this area even further. This may mean that the future <br /> expansion cannot be as large as shown on the plan. <br /> • If you have any questions regarding these comments, please call. <br /> Sincerely, <br /> Howard R.
