Under this proposal it appears that sewer service will not be required. No comments at this time.
Fire
All projects need to have fire protection for the buildings. When reviewing proposals or projects for compliance with the 1997 Uniform Fire Code (UFC) the following need to be addressed:
Does the proposal have fire hydrant coverage? To meet this requirement the building must have coverage by fire hydrants. All parts of the buildings must be within 150’ of a fire hydrant.
Another means of meeting fire code may be by installing a fire sprinkler system or constructing a fire access lane.
This project does not have a hydrant within the general area. A fire hydrant will be required to be installed along side Washington Street.
Stormwater TC \l1 "
Developments with over 5,000 square feet of impervious surface are required to provide stormwater facilities pursuant to the 1992 DOE Stormwater Manual. If stormwater
mitigation is required the types of stormwater mitigation may be wet ponds, bioswales and filter strips. The stormwater disposal is 100% infiltration. There is 2 ways to accomplish
this: open ponds and underground galleries. The open ponds are depressions that store stormwater and allow it to perk back into the underground aquifer.
Street Improvements TC \l1 "
Frontage improvements will be required on Washington Street. Washington Street is classified as a Local Access Commercial Roadway. These improvements will consist of asphalt, concrete
curb and gutter planter strip and sidewalk. See attached roadway section.
ADA Requirements
The American Disabilities Act required that facilities are ADA accessible. Facility improvements will have to meet current code. Review of these improvements will be determined upon
further review of the civil and architectural plans.
