| | THE LANDS ARE IN MONROE COUNTY FLORIDA. PLEASE VERIFY |
| | IT IS WORDED CORRECTLY OR UPDATE. |
| | |
| | -A0.02 SAYS 360 UNITS, BUT LOS ANALYSIS SAYS 370 UNITS. |
| | PLEASE VERIFY BOTH AND UPDATE AS NEEDED. |
| | |
| | -SHOW AND LABEL PROPOSED AND EXISTING SIDEWALK |
| | EASEMENTS ON CIVIL PLANS. SOME ADDITIONAL MAY BE |
| | REQUIRED. |
| | |
| | -ARE THERE ANY OUTSIDE ADA PARKING SPOTS? IF NOT, ARE |
| | ANY NEEDED OR REQUIRED? |
| | |
| | -A301 SHOWS GREENSPACE ISLANDS IN SOUTHWEST OUTSIDE |
| | PARKING LOT BUT PGD PLAN DOES NOT. PLEASE MAKE SURE ALL |
| | PLANS MATCH GENERAL DESIGN LAYOUT. |
| | |
| | -A301 HAS SOME HATCHED 20FT BY 20FT TRIANGLES. PLEASE |
| | IDENTIFY THEM IN LEGEND. IF THEY ARE SIGHT TRIANGLES, |
| | IS IT ALRIGHT FOR THE TREES TO BE IN THEM? |
| | |
| | -ON A402 AND A403 PLEASE CALLOUT DIMENSIONS OF PARKING |
| | GARAGE ENTRANCE. |

| | BETTER AND ALSO INDICATE IF WALL WILL REMAIN OR BE |
| | REPLACED. |
| | |
| | -ON C3.01 IS THE INTENT FOR THE PROPOSED 8 INCH PVC |
| | WATER MAIN TO BE PRIVATELY OWNED AND MAINTAINED OR CITY |
| | OWNED AND MAINTAINED? |
| | |
| | -CITY OWNED WATER MAINS AND WATER SERVICES LARGER THAN |
| | 2 INCHES SHOULD BE DIP. |
| | |
| | -CALLOUT BACKFLOW ASSEMBLIES AND WATER METERS. ADD SIZE |
| | TO LABEL. |
| | |
| | -C3.01 SOUTHWEST BUILDING A FIRE AND WATER SERVICE |
| | LABELS APPEAR TO BE REVERSED. FIRELINE BACKFLOW |
| | ASSEMBLY ALSO LOOKS CLOSE TO PARKING SPOT TRAFFIC. MAY |
| | NEED INCREASE DISTANCE TO PREVENT DAMAGE. |
| | |
| | -WATER SERVICE LABELS ARE AMBIGUOUS AS TO WHICH |
| | PORTIONS ARE PRIVATE. ALSO UNCLEAR AS TO SIZING WHEN |
| | SAYING 3 INCH BUT THE TAP IS FOUR INCHES AND REQUIRED |

| | |
| | -C3.02: FDC NEEDS TO BE ON PRIVATE PROPERTY AND OUT OF |
| | PEDESTRIAN TRAFFIC AS WELL AS NOT IMPEDING VEHICLE |
| | DOORS. IT MUST ALSO BE CLEARLY VISIBLE AND TYPICALLY |
| | REQUIRES SIGNAGE. |
| | |
| | -C3.02: FIRELINE BACKFLOW ASSEMBLY LOOKS TO CONFLICT |
| | WITH CURB OR GUTTER AND IS CLOSE TO VEHICLES. |
| | |
| | -C3.03: PROPOSED 24 INCH WATER MAIN SHOULD BE DIP |
| | INSTEAD OF PVC; ADD 24 INCH VALVES AT 24 INCH TEES IN |
| | OFFSET DIRECTIONS; |
| | |
| | -ADD NOTE ON UTILITY PLAN SHEETS THAT LINESTOPS OR |

| | 8 BY 4; ALSO SHOW AND LABEL DOMESTIC BACKFLOW ASSEMBLY; |
| | UTILITY EASEMENT FOR METER NOT SHOWN AND LABELED. |
| | |
| | -VERIFY BUILDING B WEST FDC LOCATION IS ACCEPTABLE WITH |
| | WPB PLANNING. ALSO VERIFY BUILDING C SOUTH FDC LOCATION |
| | WITH THEM. |
| | |
| | -BUILDING C 4 INCH WATER MAIN DOES NOT DEADEND PER WPB |
| | GIS. PLEASE VERIFY AND UPDATE UTILITY PLAN AS NEEDED. |
| | |
