Subject: 20120703 2645 Watertown Rd As-built review
Melanie,
I visited the site again for a follow-up as built review and have the following concerns:
1. No bio-rolls were installed along Watertown road. Per my conversation with the contractor,the NE corner
should have biorolls installed prior to discharging into the ditch.
2. The bio-rolls installed were not staked and are just laying on the ground. These will need to be staked in place.
3. Also noted, a course of block was removed from the retaining wall,which previously exceed 4 feet in height.

Melanie,
I visited the site for the as-built review and have the following comments:
1. There is exposed soil with no erosion control in place. The applicant will need to install erosion control (silt
fence or stacked bio-rolls) until the vegetation has established itself. The main areas of concern are along
Watertown Rd and the south and southeast portion of the property.
2. There are retaining walls North of the pool and SE of the stone patio which exceed 4' in height. By City Code,
The applicant will need to have a registered professional engineer submit documentation the construction of
the walls are acceptable.
3. The survey should show the concrete pad for the pool equipment.

Christine/Jesse,
I have attached the revised as-built survey for 2645 Watertown Road—we have completed the items you requested
(fixed all the retaining walls to be under 4' in height and installed bio-rolls as instructed from Jesse on-site). Please
review and let me know if you have any other questions or comments. Jesse—let me know what time tomorrow you
will be on-site and I'll come out to meet you to make sure everything meets your expectations. Thanks—have a great
day!!
PS—I will have Pat from our office drop off hard copies to the City office by 10:30 AM this morning.
