Eliminate 21 linear feet of the existing aggregate wall (orange color on design, <br /> marked 'A ). Cut remaining existing wall to just below grade and overlay with new <br /> brick (pink). Brick veneer will be applied to exposed north side of existing wall (see <br /> drawings and photos for section A,pages 1-3). The fmished wall will be 16"wide <br /> and 42"tall from the black top. There will be two 23.5"x 23.5"x 4.5' columns <br /> located along the wall. Proposed improvement results in an addition to hardcover <br /> area of 2.44 square feet. <br /> B. Remove existing stone wall (light purple color on design, marked `B) closest to <br /> driveway and build a brick wall that will extend a total of 60' to the west beyond the <br /> existing aggregate wall. Within the brick wall there will be a wrought iron fence and <br /> gate that connect to the brick walls. The brick wall will be constructed with 4 <br /> columns and fencing to match description in 'A' and supported by a 48" frost footing <br /> (see drawings and photos for section B,pages 4-7). Some blacktop (light blue) will <br /> be added to the driveway to create this section, however more will be removed (dark <br /> blue) in this process. Proposed improvement results in the removal of hardcover area <br /> equal to 27 square feet. <br /> C. Install steps and landings and retaining wall. The steps have 7"brick treads and 12" <br /> bluestone treads (gray color on design, marked V). The landings will be <br /> constructed with bluestone veneer. The retaining wall will be constructed with brick <br /> and blue stone caps. The steps, landings and retaining wall will be constructed with <br /> 48" frost footings. Proposed improvement results in an addition to hardcover area of <br /> 182.66 square feet. <br /> D. Remove existing stone wall (red color on survey, marked `D) surrounding large <br /> maple tree. Tear down the rest of the existing retaining walls, shift position of some <br /> of the wall slightly to improve soil retention and rebuild them with dry laid bluestone <br /> boulder walls (brown color on design, marked `D) (see drawing and photos for <br /> section D, pages5-7 and 9). An additional tier will be built to help control soil erosion <br /> (brown). Proposed improvement results in a reduction to hardcover of 75.14 square <br /> feet. <br /> 1 <br />
