Good Afternoon Andrew & Lydia,
It was a pleasure speaking with you both in reference to the comments received for our permit submittal.
Please see my responses to your comments below:
Plans Examiner Review:
1) PER ZONING, PARKING WILL BE REDESIGNED, RE -SUBMIT TO BUILDING DEPT FOR REVIEW WHEN UPDATED
PLANS ARE SUBMITTED.
a. Response: Please see my response to the zoning comment below. As our current design solves the
grading issue of the accessible parking spots while avoiding the need to completely redesign the
drainage patterns of the parking lot, we may not need to redesign the parking space layout or
resubmit plans.
2) REVISE DESCRIPTION OF WORK IN THE APPLICATION, ADA RAMPS ARE SHOWN AS CONCRETE, NOT
ASPHALT. ([A]107.2.1)
a. Response: The description of work in the application was incorrect and will be corrected to
"concrete" for the ADA Ramps.
ZONING REVIEW:
CHECK WITH LINDA IF LOCATION OK. 2/2/21 DISCUSSED WITH LINDA P. SHE ADVISES ONLY 1 ADA PARKING TO
RELOCATE TO HAVE AT LEAST 1 ADA PARKING AT THE SOUTH SIDE OF THE BUILDING
PER LINDA PENDARVIS, PLANNING MANAGER. PLEASE REVISE THE PLAN TO RELOCATE ONE ADA PARKING FROM
THE SOUTH SIDE AND LEAVE ONE ADA AT EXISTING LOCATION.
PLEASE PROVIDE CORRECTED PLANS.
*NO ENGINEERING REQUIRED UNLESS BUILDING DEP. WISHES THEM TO ASSIST AND REVIEW.
a. Response: The objective of this project is to ensure that the accessible parking spaces meets ADA
grading requirements. After reviewing the slopes of the parking lot, we discovered that the existing
accessible parking spots were not meeting ADA grading requirements due to the drainage inlet located
south of the parking spots. To correct the grading of the existing accessible parking spots would create a
domino effect and require a complete redesign of the drainage patterns and drainage structures within
the parking lot. As a solution, we decided to move the ADA parking spaces to the west side of the
building where the existing pavement already meets the ADA grading requirements. Also, the location of
the proposed accessible parking spots is only 50' away from the existing location which is still relatively
close. We hope our engineering judgement will be considered in approving the permit with the current
layout.
Please advise if anything else is needed for the approval of the permit.
Best Regards,
