Staff conducted a preliminary review based on the information provided and recommends the following items be submitted or revised in order for your application to be considered complete and for the plan review to continue: 1. Certificate of Survey. A survey dated 1-6-17 was submitted. Our engineer has reviewed the survey and has the following comments: a. Retaining Walls. The plan depicts a retaining wall that reaches 4.4 feet in height. Walls greater than 4 feet must be designed by a licensed professional. Plans must be submitted to the City for review prior to the issuance of the permit. Please note tiered walls are considered one wall unless they are separated by at least twice the height of the lower wall. b. There is an existing Concrete "Keystone" Retaining Wall starting on the adjacent property (880 Windjammer Lane) and ending on the subject property. Please provide clarification as to what is happening with this retaining wall. c. The survey does not depict the current steps/stairs to the lake. Please have the survey updated to accurately reflect the current site conditions. After the survey has been updated please provide two copies of a full-size certificate of survey which meets all of the City's survey standards (enclosed). 2. Hardcover Calculations. The property is located in Tier 1 of the Stormwater Quality Overlay District which allows up to 25%of the gross area of the lot to be covered in hardcover. Please have the surveyor update the hardcover calculations to include the existing steps/stairs to the lake. Enclosed is a copy of the City's hardcover information packet. 3. Escrow&Escrow Agreement. Permits involving grading and/or review by the City's engineer require submittal of an escrow and an escrow agreement. The purpose of the escrow is to guarantee reimbursement to the City for out-of-pocket costs incurred during the review of your plans. Additionally this escrow will guarantee conformance with City Code Chapter 79 relating to erosion control and stormwater. The required escrow amount for this project is $2,500. The escrow agreement is enclosed. The property owner must sign the enclosed agreement and submit a check for$2,500.
