The "Type D" curb detail as well as the "HandIcap Accessible Route" detaIl has been revIsed to
conform wIth standard draWing B-9800 I It was structurally Impractactible to "provIde a
handIcap accessible sIdewalk With acceptable slope from the pubhc sIdewalk to the bUIldmg
entrance." Section 4 I I (5)(a) of the FlorIda AccessibIhty Code states that due to the umque
characterIstIcs of the terrain, a General ExceptIOn Will be allowed.
The stop bar m the south parkmg lot has been angled per your request; however, a post-mounted
stop SIgn has not been added at this locatIOn. A waIver of thIS reqUIrement IS requested due to
the architectural features of the bUIldmg entrance. A stop SIgn placed wIthm the decoratIve paver
entrance wIll adversely effect the aestluetIcs of the buildmg. In addItIOn, thIS SIgn may cause
safety Issues WIth respect to pedestrian traffic enterIng and leavmg the bUIldmg. Therefore, the
plans currently show large pamted "stop" words dIrectly behmd the stop bar m heu of the stop
SIgn.
The "Tow Away Zone SIgn and pavement strIppmg has been added to the no parkmg zone. A
pedestrIan path bordered by 6" wIde thermoplastIC strIpes has been added through the drIveway
The landscape plans have shown relocated trees away from the hght poles.
The "RIder to SIte Plan ApphcatIOn" was orIgmally submItted and IS attached to the back of the
SIte plan apphcatIOn.
One of the engmeerIng comments reqUIred a 25' wIde landscaped area around the entIre
property As per Michael W Rumpf, thIS IS not required for thIS project because It falls wIthm
the mterIor space of the P .LD ThIS reqUIrement apphes only to the perImeter of the P .LD Itself.
The addItIOnal dramage flumes, drIve aIsle dImenSIOn, and typIcal pavement reVlSlons were also
added to the plans as requested.
Building Division
ThIS proposed buildmg wIll have no bUIldmg sIgnage on any of ItS elevatIOns. A SIte SIgn wIll be
prOVIded at the front of the property as shown on the SIte plan WIth dImenSIOns. SIte plan sheet
C-l shows a detaIl oftlus free standing project SIgn. ThIS detaIl IS m conformance WIth Quantum
Park Standards and the CIty of Boynton Beach.
The sIdewalk/handIcap ramp detaIl has been reVIsed based on your comments on both the
archItectural floor plan and on CIvIl sheet C-l HandraIls are not reqUIred at thIS ramp because Its
length does not exceed 6 feet.
