While <br />Sheet C2.1 indicates the Lofts site has 52.4% impervious area, the Stonebay project in its entirety has an <br />impervious area well below the 50% limit, so this is not an issue in staffs opinion. <br />Engineer’s Comments <br />Please review the City Engineer ’s comments, Exhibit D. <br />Final Plat <br />Outlol R w.'is created specifically for the Lofts, and must be final jilattcd as a Lot in order for it to be used <br />as a building site.
