Mr. Steve Ach <br />May 22, 1996 <br />Page Two <br /> <br />installed. Also, the sketch plan that the Developer has provided, showing how the <br />area north may be platted, does not lend itself to a contiguous corridor for looping <br />the watermain. I would point out that this northern area is only a sketch plan and <br />perhaps the lot lines could be adjusted. <br /> <br />We have made a site visit to the area to review the type and quality of vegetation. <br />It appears there are pockets of dead oak trees that fall approximately mid lot of the <br />proposed addition. The live and very mature stands of trees appear to be along the <br />lots lines. Perhaps the County Forester could be asked to review the area and <br />comment on the relative health and value of the trees that would be affected by the <br />looping of the utilities. It is unclear to me how to weigh the benefits of looping <br />utilities versus the detriment to the development of clearing the trees necessary for <br />this looping. <br /> <br />Storm drainage from this development would be handled through a continuation of <br />the series of low areas that are hooked together by culverts conveying storm water <br />runoff north to a relatively large depression. At some point, we would have to see <br />detailed storm drainage calculations showing how this fits into the overall storm <br />drainage plan for the Hillside Development. <br /> <br />At this point, no grading plan has been submitted. As this project proceeds, a <br />grading plan will need to be reviewed and approved followed by a development <br />plan. <br /> <br />If you have any questions regarding this comments, please call. <br /> <br />Sincerely, <br /> <br />MSA, CONSULTING ENGINEERS <br /> <br />TJM:pd <br /> <br />230/319-2204. may <br /> <br /> <br />
