The applicant seeks site plan and design approval for a multi-tenant retail building.

Evans for Thomas English Retail Real Estate, LLC.

DOCS outstanding conunents/concerns:
1. The City Forester received the revised landscape plan on 11/14/2007 and will need some time to
re-review the plan.
2. The City Engineering DepL has not commented on this project yet, because it was indicated that
the plan was changing; they were asked to hold off on the review. At a glance, the project will
need some stormwater quality treatments. A review letter will be forthcoming after receipt of the
revised plans.
3. DOCS needs a digital copy (PDF files) via CD or emai!.
4. Parking spaces, interior, shall be 9' x 20' or 10' x 18'. Petitioner could shrink aisle widths to gain
length in parking stalls.

6. Show mechanical equipment locations and how they are screened from view.
7. Copies of full size (24" x 36") revised plans, landscape plan, and elevations are requested.
