COMMENTS-CONSTRUCTION PLANS I 1. When will a secondary plat be submitted for review? 12. Sheet 3 - Site Development Plan · We believe unnecessary problems are created by the extremely wide median at the entrance. This xvill be discussed further in the Entrance Plans, Sheet 9 comments. Please confirm with the Carmel Clay' School Transportation Department and the Carmel Fire Department that the 38-foot radii at the cul-de-sac terminal ends are sufficient. The Department of Engineering will require that you obtain written confirmation from these agencies and provide said confirmations to us prior to approval of the plans. f 13. Sheet4- · · · · · · 14. Sheets 5, 15. Sheet 9- · The City prefers that common areas not be located within medians. This complicates maintenance of the right of way. · Please reduce the portions of Dolan Way on either side of the median to be eighteen feet maximum width. Site Development Plan The Department of Engineering will not approve construction drawings for this subdivision until the easement for the off-site sanitary has been secured. · Please make any revisions necessary to locate all portions of the sanitary sewer outside of the right- of-way limits. For the sanitary run between structures 11 and 12, relocate structure 12 so main is out of the right-of-way. Relocate the run between structures 14 and 15 so that this is out of the right-of-way. The sanitary sewer betWeen structures 26 and 22 needs to be realigned and possibly a structure added to get this out of the right-of-way. · Please relocate storm structure 737 to opposite side of Letts Circle to avoid street crossing. Revise downstream piping as needed. · ~Vhat is the feature that looks like a culvert with headwallsjust south of lots 12 and 13.9 Is it proposed or existing and where are the details for this structure.9 °Please provide a thirty-foot b-b pavement width for all streets per City standard. ° We assume the forty-foot right-of-way shown for Letts Circle and sidewalk on only one side of Letts Circle is acceptable to the Department of Community Services. ° A flood route has been indicated, but has been labeled incorrectly in the legend. Please label as FLOOD ROUTE rather than EMERGENCY SPILLWAY. ° Please indicate a minimum flood protection grade (MFPG) for lots adjacent to 100-year flood source and flood routes. Define MFPG as minimum grade for any structure opening (door, window, window well, outside basement stair access, etc.) Please add minimum pad grades for ones that are indicated with asterisks. Please label swale slopes (1% minimum). Swales cannot exceed 400' in length before draining to an inlet. Please provide pond spillway on dry detention basin. Please label bottom elevation, 2-yr elevation, and 10-yr elevation of the pond.

If the standard practice of the utility that has jurisdiction over the installation has a more stringent cover requirement, the more stringent requirement shall govern. Entrance Plan Thank you for adding the auxiliary lanes and for accommodating a left turn lane into the development. The Department understands that the entrance island is being configured to protect the existing trees, however, after reviewing this with Mike McBride, the entrance configuration will not be approved as shown. Please provide a left turn bay for exiting traffic located in front of the entrance island. The median should be a maximum of ten feet wide and the lane on each side of the median should be a maximum of eighteen feet wide and all lanes should be perpendicular to West Road. · Please label colors (yellow or white) that the various lines in the channelization plan are to be. · The cross-hatching on the south side of the plan is angled in the correct direction while the cross- hatching on the north side is not angled in the correct direction.

Will this project include an amenity building? If so, our office will request the installation of a of a Knox Box for emergency access. An application for the Knox box can be obtained through our office. Our office, in conjunction with the Department of Community Development, are requesting in newly platted subdivisions, fire hydrant makers be installed in the street pavement perpendicular to the fire hydrant. This will allow the fire department to more easily spot fire hydrants during an emergency. Our office is requesting a decrease in size of the main entrance boulevard island off West Road. I am sending you our department's apparatus specifications for your use in designing a more navigable entrance for emergency access. , , . Please respond to the above noted condition(s) in writing and submit to our office prior to the scheduled Technical Advisory Meeting for this project. Date: January 12, 2005 By: Gary Hoyt, Fire Marshal Carmel Fire Department January 12, 2005 Dave Barnes Weihe Engineers, INC. 10505 N. college Avenue Indianapolis, IN 46280 RE: Glen Oaks Subdivision Dear Mr. Barnes: ! have received and reviewed the information for the above-mentioned project. At the present time, I see nothing in the plans that would hamper law enforcement efforts. If we can be of any further assistance to you, please contact us. Respectfully, Michael D. Fogarty Chief of Police MDF:vb CC: Dept. of Community Services (517) 571-2500 A Nationally Accredit~i~{~:Dforcement Agency F~ {5~17} 571-2512 81/13/2885 11'34 3177769628 HAMILTON CO SURVEYOR PAGE 81/84 Sanuary 12, 2005 Weihe Engineering, Inc. ATTN: Dave Barnes 10505 North Coil,ge Avenue Indianapolis, IN 46280 VIA FAC$IMIZE: 843-05~6 COl~lit Re: Glen Oaks SubdMsion Dear Mr. Barnes: We have reviewed the consmmtion plans sub~tted to the Hamilton, County Surveyor's Office on December 13, 2004 for this project and have the following comments: .This .proposed development will. be a Hamilton. County Regulatod Drain Subdivision, subject to approval of the Hamilton County Drainage Board. + Please submit the following procedural items to this office, petition for regulated subdivision, 2 outlet permits (Bellwood Drain), non-enforcement request for subdivision, engineer's estimate, and all associated bonds for 120% of construction cost. The applications are available on our website at llttp://www.¢o.hamilton, in.us, go to Departments, Surveyor, and Forms. 3. The proposed project DOI~S NOT fall in a Carmel Wellhead Protection Area. v All Drainage Easements (D.E.) that have regulated drain pipe need to have a 15' easemerit on each side of the pipe. The easeme~.t location needs to be relative to the cen~rline of the pipe. Several instances are shown in the c, onsmiction plans that the easemmt ends only a few feet from the pipe. 5. Are some of these lots walk-out baseraent lots? Hamilton County 4-26-99-C(7)e requires the finish floor elevation to be a minimum of 2 feet about the 100 year elevation of the lakes. Please provide elevations, MFF, pad grade, or lowest opening elevation, for the lower levels of these lots. Also, several of the other lots do not have elevation provided. 01/13/2005 11:34 3177769628 HANILTON O0 SURVEYOR PAGE 02/04 . The existing det~ation pond do~s not appear to ke,-'p the 1 O0 y~ar storm event within the banks of the .,pond and does not have 2 feet of freeboard as shown on the approved HCSO Lake Stm~ards. Also, does this existing lake have 10' safety ledges? . Thc outlet from the existing pond will need to be replaced with RCP. Thc CMP structure will rust out and drop the pond level, which is a future maintenance issue. The plans call for the widenin/of West Road but do not address the extensions that will be needed to the existing crossing under the roadway. The concrete box will need to be extended well past the stone shoulder required, ffthe north crossing, the CMP pipe, is deteriorating as we strongly suspect, this office would request that it be replaced with RCP. The final call on this replacement will be .made by the City of Carmel Engineering Department. ! The brick wall along the front of the property causes several problcrns. The plans show columus on top of storm pipes, the wall its¢If run parallel to the wall with very little separation, The wall blocks the emergency overflows for the lakes/basin. The wall will need to have removal panels in any location that a regulated drain, storm pipe crosses uudemcath the way. Plea,s~ provide details on the brick wall. 10. Please show an emergency overflow for the dry deterition basin located in C01TlmOll area 11. Please provide the bottom elevation for the proposed pond in common area "B". This lake also does not appear to maintain 2' of freeboard as required by our details. I2. Please show spot elevations for the lots, including high points and flow arrows for the individual lot drainage. Also, please show the HP on the swales. 13. Please show spot elevations on the ~nergcncy overflow muting for thc lake in common area "B", This overflow muting need to be located in D.E. to prevent filling and allow access for maintenance. 1,~. The swale on lot 36 and 37 oeeds to be located with D.E. 15. An existing private tile crosses this site and drains into the existing pond. A breather has been set on this pipe at thc Glen Oak/Claybome property linc. Please show this breather in the constructions plans. This tile will need to be located and crushed across this development to prevent problems with thc building pads or sink hole in the lots. 16..Please label thc pipe size and material for the crossing under Letts Circlc. 01/13/2005 11:34 3177769628 HAMILTON CO SURVEYOR PAGE 03/04 17. Based off of the inverts of the cwssing under Lefts Circle, thc 100 flood elevation of the existing pond will back water up into common area "D." Please show the area this water will back up into and label is as storm water storage area. Also this will need to be labeled on the secondary plat. None ofthis storage area will be allow to encroach on Io the building lots. 18. It was discussed at an onsitc meeting with our office that the driveway crossing pipes for lots 22 and 2~ would bc sized by the engineer and shown in thc construction plans. It was also discussed that thc drain pipe (str. 746) would extel~d to thc NW corn~ of~he Berthold prepay to allow for future access to the drain by thc property owners that have current drainagc problems along 131*t Street. The pipe would need to be sized to allow for some capacity for these property owners. ].9. All Drainage Easements that contain pwposed Regulated Drain pipe MUST be cleared the complete width of ~he easem~t as r~quired by IC 36-9-27-33. The easements that contain just swales can contain Wees with the awales w/nding around them, but this office will NOT maintain these swales. 20. Hamilton County Ordinance 4-26.99-C(7)d(I) requires all pipe to have a minimum of 2' of cover. Any location under pavement that 2' of cover can not b~ attained will requir~ special approval for the City of Carmel Engineering Office. 21. Please show the location of the proposed underdmins on the storm P dc P sheets. It appears that several location exist where a conflict with thc SSD and storm pipe and will need to be addressed. 22. Since the roadway is not centered in thc ROW of Letts Circle and the SSD will be regulated drain, thc HCSO will not allow any tree within 10 feet ofthe back of curb ~o prevent the roots from growing into thc underdrains. The plans do not show the existing trees, but any existing trees within that I0 feet will need to be removed. 23. Please show the pil~ location and essements on the landscape plans. I sec several areas that proposed trees may conflict with the D.E. and storm sewers. 24. Please include ALL applicable HCSO Standard Details in thc construction plans. Also, remove any "generic" details that conflict with our stan~ details. 25. The initial review of the drainage calculations raises some questions. I will await the review by Crossroad Bnlgn~ring and require all comment they make to be addressed before at~mval. 26. All casting should b~ labeled "Dump No Waste- Drains to Waterway," which are readily available now from local casting distributors. Please add the complete language to a note in the construction plans. 01/13/2005 11:34 3177769628 H~MILTON CO SURVEYOR PAGE 0~/0~ 27.

Basin # 1 in the NW comer. Show a minimum area of land disturbance (draw a labeled line on the plan) on the plan to build the basin. Line C- Where is the topsoil placed? Finish grade and seed the mounds. Start mass earthwork as mounds are being seeded. Finish grade and seed common areas, pond banks and rear half of lots while mass earthwork is finishing. Eliminate the statement about the temp. sed basin because it will be installed prior to mass earthwork. Line F. Much of the finish grading and seeding needs to be completed by this time. Please revise B4. A sediment trap or basin is needed in the north west comer of the site before the stormwater is released offsite. The silt fence is not adequate for the size of the watershed. The sed. basin detail provides the wrong impression. There is no sanitary pipe of other storm sewers. Just show the dam contours with labels, the basin contours, pipe inverts, sizes and length. Provide calculations that basin # 1 is adequately sized. What height is the stone weir? It needs to satisfy the storage requirements. C- A seeding specifications is needed for the alternative grasses in the dry basin. cc: Carmel, Surveyor, File DNR, Division of Soil Conservation Page 1 of 1 Revised 12/09/03 TIN Angelina Conn Fmc 571-2426 _,. j,~mel 57~-2417 , ,, , Fromt Dave Bame~; ..... ~ January 4, 2005 Glen Oaks Subd; ,ision .-- , , C~.-;'.~.;.~= City of Carmel Community Services , _ Pages Innluding,cever sheee 3 Rm TAC notfficabon · ~ Angle: The following "Letter of Transn#ttal". nd site plans were sent to TAC members lister on the included sheet Jar Jary 3, 2005.
