PZ 06-048 STAFF REPORT Chair and Members of the Planning and Development Board and City Commission Michael Rumpf Planning and Zoning Director Ed Breese ~ Principal Planner March 13, 2006 Commerce Bank / NWSP 06-005 New Site Plan Property Owner: Agent/ Applicant: Location: PROJECT DESCRIPTION Commerce Bank, N.A. Kim Glas-Castro of Ruden McCloskey Northwest corner of Boynton Beach Boulevard and Winchester Park Boulevard (see Exhibit "A" - Location Map) Existing Land Use/Zoning: Local Retail Commercial (LRC)/Community Commercial (C-3) Proposed Land Use/Zoning: Proposed Use: Acreage: Adjacent Uses: North: South: East: No change Request new site plan approval to construct a 4,222 square foot bank and 13,709 square feet of retail space 2.40-acres Developed Wal-Mart Supercenter with a Local Retail Commercial (LRC) land use designation, zoned Community Commercial (C-3); Right-of-way for Boynton Beach Boulevard, farther south is a developed commercial plaza (BJ's Wholesale Club) with a with a Local Retail Commercial (LRC) land use designation, zoned Planned Commercial Development (PCD); Right-of-way for Winchester Park Boulevard, farther east is developed commercial (ABC Fine Wine and Spirits) with a Local Retail Commercial (LRC) land use designation, zoned Community Commercial (C-3); and Staff Report - Commerce Bank (NWSP 06-005) Memorandum No PZ 06-048 Page 2 West: Developed commercial property (Bedding Barn) with a Local Retail Commercial (LRC) land use designation, zoned Community Commercial (C-3). Site Characteristic: According to the survey, the subject site is currently vacant. The survey also shows that a 30-foot wide road right-of-way, which traversed through the interior of the property, was abandoned according to Official Record Book 2586, Page 1378. However, a 10-foot wide utility easement currently runs in an east-west direction along the south property line. This utility easement would not be altered and would remain in its current state. Also depicted is a 35-foot wide canal easement oriented in an east-west direction along the north property line. Proposal: Concurrency: Traffic: Utilities: Police I Fire: BACKGROUND According to public documents, the property was annexed in June 1992 and acquired by Wal-Mart in November 1999. On September 2,2003, a site plan for a 21,600 square foot retail plaza named Winchester Commons was approved for the site. The applicants failed to acquire the necessary permits or request a time extension within a one (1) year timeframe and the project was abandoned. As a result, Ms. Kim Glas-Castro, representing new ownership, is requesting site plan approval for the construction of a 4,222 square foot bank and 13,709 square feet of retail space on the 2AO-acre parcel. ANALYSIS A traffic statement was sent to the Palm Beach County Traffic Division for concurrency review in order to ensure an adequate level of service. In a response dated January 17, 2006, Palm Beach County Traffic Division determined that the project meets the Traffic Performance Standards, provided the design of the site encourages the use of the Winchester Park Boulevard ingress/egress for motorists desirous of heading eastbound on Boynton Beach Boulevard. The approval also suggests the incorporation of an exclusive westbound right-turn (deceleration) lane into the site from Boynton Beach Boulevard, which the applicant has provided. The City's water capacity, as increased through the purchase of up to 5 million gallons of potable water per day from Palm Beach County Utilities, would meet the projected potable water for this project. Local piping and infrastructure improvements may be required, especially on the water delivery system for the project, depending on the final project configuration and fire-flow demands. These local improvements would be the responsibility of the site developer and would be reviewed at the time of permitting. Sufficient sanitary sewer and wastewater treatment capacity is also currently available to serve the project, subject to the applicant making a firm reservation of capacity, following approval of the site plan. Staff reviewed the site plan and determined that current staffing levels would be sufficient to meet the expected demand for services. Staff Report - Commerce Bank (NWSP 06-005) Memorandum No PZ 06-048 Page 3 Drainage: Conceptual drainage information was provided for the City's review. The Engineering Division has found the conceptual information to be adequate and is recommending that the review of specific drainage solutions be deferred until time of permit review (see Exhibit "C" - Conditions of Approval). School: School concurrency is not required for this type of project. Driveways: The site plan (sheet C-3) shows that one (1) point of ingress/egress is proposed on Boynton Beach Boulevard. This driveway opening would allow for right turn only ingress and egress. The Engineering Division of Public Works has reviewed and approved the proposed deceleration lane and driveway opening, A second point of ingress/egress is proposed on Winchester Park Boulevard, at the north side of the property. Parking Facility: According to the Land Development Regulations, retail uses require one (1) parking space per 200 square feet of gross floor area. The site plan (sheet C-2) proposes 13,709 square feet of retail area, thereby requiring 69 parking spaces. Banks require one (1) parking space per 250 square feet of gross floor area, Since the bank is 4,222 square feet, 17 parking spaces would be required. The site plan depicts 90 parking spaces, including five (5) designated for handicap use. Therefore, there would be 4 excess parking spaces provided. A 12' x 35' loading space has also been provided at the west end of the retail building. Landscaping: All spaces, excluding the handicap spaces, would be dimensioned nine (9) feet - six (6) inches in width and 18 feet - six (6) inches in length. All proposed parking stalls, including the size and location of the handicap spaces were reviewed and approved by both the Engineering Division and Building Division. The proposed open space or "pervious" area would be 26,990 square feet or 25.8% of the total lot. The front (south) landscape buffer would be approximately 12 feet wide west of the entrance off of Boynton Beach Boulevard. East of the entrance, the front landscape buffer would be 7 feet wide as a result of the deceleration lane. The landscape plan (sheet LA-1) shows that this buffer would contain Live Oak shade trees. It would also contain a row of Redtip Cocoplum hedges and Blue Plumbago shrubs planted in groups. The western perimeter buffer would contain East Palatka Holly shade trees and clusters of Sabal palm trees with a row of Redtip Cocoplum hedges installed at the base. The rear (north) perimeter buffer would contain a row Sabal palm trees with Redtip Cocoplum hedges installed at the base. The Cocoplum hedge would be planted at increased height to help provide screening of the drive-thru teller operation on the north side of the bank. The east perimeter buffer (along Winchester Park Boulevard) appears to be seven (7) feet in width and would contain the same plant material as the south perimeter buffer. Additional groundcover plants would also be required along Winchester Park Boulevard, same as along Boynton Beach Boulevard (see Exhibit "C" - Conditions of Approval). Other project trees would include Mahogany, Tree Ligustrum and Purple Glory trees. The signature trees (Purple Glory trees) would have to have six (6) feet of clear trunk installed within the safe-sight triangle. Other "shrubs and groundcover" would include the following: Dwarf Yaupon Holly, Wax Staff Report - Commerce Bank (NWSP 06-005) Memorandum No PZ 06-048 Page 4 Jasmine, New Gold Lantana, Dwarf Indian Hawthorne, Dwarf Schefflera and Viburnum. Building and Site: The building and site design as proposed would generally meet code requirements when staff comments are incorporated into the permit drawings. The floor plan for the retail building (sheet A4.0) shows that the building would contain multiple tenants with bay sizes ranging from 1,400 square feet to 1,600 square feet in area. However, the size of each bay could change depending on the needs of the individual tenants. Additionally, the proposed retail building has been designed as a one (l)-story structure. The elevations (sheet A5.0) show the top of the parapet wall at 19 feet - ten (10) inches in height. The peak of the highest roof would be 30 feet in height, well below the maximum of 45 feet allowed in the C-3 zoning district. Design: The Commerce Bank building is designed as a one (l)-story structure, with a taller lobby area with volume ceilings. The elevations (sheet A300) indicate the top of the typical parapet wall at nearly 17 feet in height and 26 feet at the entry/lobby, again well below the maximum of 45 feet allowed in the C-3 zoning district. The covered drive-thru teller accommodates four (4) drive lanes, located on the north (back) side of the building. Placing this function to the rear of the building helps screen this operation from Boynton Beach Boulevard and with the landscaping installed at a taller specification than minimum code requirements, assists in the screening of this operation from Winchester Park Boulevard. Most of the newer commercial buildings constructed within the immediate vicinity of the subject property (i,e, Wal-Mart, ABC Fine Wine and Spirits, Boynton Commons shopping center) possess desirable architectural characteristics such as arcades, barrel tile roofs, columns, score lines, and diamond accent markings. The applicant and staff worked together to incorporate design elements that would increase compatibility between the proposed building and neighboring commercial buildings. The retail building incorporates the use of an arcade along the storefronts, barrel tile roofs at the end caps, decorative columns, cornice and score lines. As noted, the front fac;ade would be enhanced with an arcade, columns, and two (2) hip roofs at each end of the building, at a height of 30 feet. The elevations show that the hip roof red clay spanish tile roofs would reflect a terra-cotta color. According to the "exterior finish color schedule" shown on sheet A5.0, the main body color of the retail building would be a light beige: "Chapelle Tint" (MAB 98547-PG), The secondary wall color is proposed as a slightly darker beige: "Vizcoino Desert" (MAB 98591-0). The accent color of the cornice, reveals and banding, as well as the storefront frames would be white: "Classic White" (MAB 041-150). The side elevations (east and west) and also the rear elevation are depicted with canvas awnings over the doors and windows. These arched awnings are proposed as a black sunbrella material.. The Commerce Bank building utilizes many of the same design features as the retail building, including colors, identical columns, scoring and reveals, same roof tile and window frame colors and cornice work. Staff Report - Commerce Bank (NWSP 06-005) Memorandum No PZ 06-048 Page 5 Signage: The elevation page (sheet A300) shows the proposed location of the wall sign for the Commerce Bank building. The sign would be channel letters and located over the bank's entrance, The sign would be 32 square feet in size, with the Commerce Bank script in black and the "C" logo in red. A monument sign is proposed at the southeast corner of the site, visible from both Boynton Beach Boulevard and Winchester Park Boulevard. The sign would be approximately six (6) feet in height and six (6) feet in width, with the address prominently displayed at the top of the sign. The extruded aluminum sign cabinet would be black, with a white sign face depicting the same black lettering and red logo as the wall sign. Sheet A5.0 depicts the typical signage for the retail building. A sign band has been designed into the architectural details of the building, over the entrance to each of the storefront bays. A note indicates that each tenant shall have one and one-half (1- V2) square feet of sign area for each linear foot of building frontage. A sign detail on the same sheet indicates that the signs are designed as reverse channel letters, with the individual letters not exceeding 12 inches in height. These letters are proposed to be "Mediterranean Blue" in color. The proposed signage area would comply with the maximum allowable wall signage area permitted by the Land Development Regulations. This would be consistent with Chapter 9, Section 10.1. of the Land Development Regulations. RECOMMENDATION: The Technical Application Review Team (TART) has reviewed this request for new site plan approval and recommends approval contingent upon satisfying all comments indicated in Exhibit "C" - Conditions of Approval, Any additional conditions recommended by the Board or City Commission shall be documented accordingly in the Conditions of Approval.

RESPONSE: Note provided on the Site Plan. 2. The applicant has indicated that no refuse collection is required or necessary as documents will be shredded and disposed off-site. The applicant however does not address "incidental" trash such as lunch refuse and the like. While a dumpster may not be required to handle the small volume likely to be generated it does seem that some sort of trash storage for pickup will be needed for this site. Please address how this will be handled, roll- out cart(s) being the logical alternative. RESPONSE: Note on Site Plan regarding ALL waste for the bank building. The dumpster enclosure exists for the retail building. 3. The loading zone on the northwest comer of the pr9posed retail building overlaps the area needed for the solid waste trucks to approach and back from the dumpster enclosure.

Please tabulate the amount of native material in each plant category. Place a note on the landscape plan that all above ground mechanical equipment such as exterior utility boxes, meters, transformers, and back-flow preventers shall be visually screened (Chapter 9, Section lO.C.4.). Sheet LA-l indicates a planting prohibition in the visibility triangles of plant material between 30" and 6 ' in height. The code requires up to 8'. Please correct. The Landscape plan (LA-I) and Site Plan (C-3) do not match relative to landscape islands, planter areas in front of the covered walkway, building location and loading area. Please correct. Sheet LA-I, under the heading Landscape Calculations, the noted interior landscaping square footage indicates TBD (to be determined). Please calculate and provide appropriate figure. Staff recommends the use of landscape material other than Crape Myrtle, due to its tendency to be bare during certain months. Additional landscaping/greater height of landscape material should be utilized along the north landscape buffer to minimize the view of the drive-through operation. The base of the monument signs should be totally surrounded and enhanced with colorful groundcover and a minimum of two (2) colorful shrub species. Please provide a detail of the typical freestanding outdoor lighting fixture, including the overall height, exterior finish and color(s). The design, style, and illumination level shall be compatible with the building design (height) and shall consider safety, function, and aesthetic value (Chapter 9, Section 10.F.1.). A Photometric Plan should be submitted, depicting compliance with City Codes and ensuring no light spillover onto adjacent properties. The dumpster enclosure shall resemble with respect to the color and materials, the design of the principal buildings and shall be integrated with other site elements (Chapter 9, Section lO.E.3.). On the site plan, place a note indicating this requirement. Provide a detail of the dumpster enclosure All signage is subject to review and approval of the Planning & Development Board and City Commission. No detail of the monument sign proposed for the Boynton Beach Boulevard entrance has been provide. Please provide a detail of the sign area, including the dimensions, exterior finish, and letter color(s) (Chapter 4, Section 7.D.). Please provide, in tabular form, a breakdown of sign calculations for all signage for the entire site, depicting the code requirement and that being proposed, indicating compliance with all code requirements. The three-sided monument sign for the bank is not permitted; it may have no more than two faces. All monument signs shall clearly indicate the project street address at the top of the sign. Neon tubing outlining the decorative molding around parapet of building is not allowed. If the applicant would want to use accent lighting such as up lighting, sconces or other forms to highlight architectural features, staff will consider it. The applicant may wish to look at some of the accent lighting utilized on the buildings within Boynton Commons to the east, as a way of emphasizing compatibility with surrounding developments. Non-word depictions on signs shall be limited to 20% of the area of the sign. Additionally, non- word depictions (ie.logos) may not be independent of verbiage on walls or signs. Please correct. What is the area along the north/rear elevation on Sheet A-300 with the wording "illumination sign box by others", and what function does it serve? What type of signage would be contemplated? Directional signs are limited to four (4) square feet and a total of four (4) per site, located at points of ingress/egress. Their location needs to be depicted on the site plan and reference to other signs and neon that will not be used should be removed from the submittal package for clarity. Stacking or vehicle queing at the drive-through facility for the bank would appear to stack into the drive aisle along the east side of the bank and potentially congest the entry from and exit to Winchester Park Boulevard. Please depict vehicle templates on the site plan to denote stacking/queing operations and capacity. Staff recommends additional use of architectural features between the two structures, including the decorative tiles, window treatments, roof tile colors, building colors, stucco texture, use of outlookers/decorative brackets, etc. Staff recommends the use of decorative upligting on both buildings as opposed to standard wallpacks. It would appear as though bold stripes or banding is being applied to the covered drive-through columns, which does not appear appropriate. There are too many large expanses of blank wall on various elevations of the bank building. Staff suggests utilizing architectural features from the retail building in these areas. Please explain the smaller islands in the drive-through lanes -vs- the larger islands and the operations conducted at each. The decorative wall tiles depicted on the front and sides of the retail building should be carried through onto the rear, in the space between the reveal and the parapet banding, in order to fill in the blank wall space. Proposed walkway connections from the sidewalks within the road rights-of-way to the walkways in front of the bank and retail shops should be depicted crossing the parking lot drive aisles. Staff suggests the use of pavers for the entire distance. The bank is depicted as Phase I and the retail space as Phase II. No phase lines are indicated as to what improvements are to be completed in which phase. Please provide phase lines, a phasing plan indicating timing of the improvements and proposed timing for construction of Phase II. Understand that should the properties be divided and sold along phase lines, appropriate setbacks, landscape buffers, parking counts and other site issues must be taken into consideration. Cross-access, cross-parking, drainage, and utility easements need to be considered many property transactions. At the technical advisory review team (TART) meeting, provide written responses to all staffs comments and questions. Submit 12 sets of revised plans. Each set should be folded and stapled At the technical advisory review team meeting, also provide a full set of reduced drawings, sized 8 ~ inches by 11 inches of each plan. Save each plan to a compact disk and submit that to staff as well. It is the applicant's responsibility to ensure that the new site plan is publicly advertised in accordance with Ordinance 04-007. The applicant is responsible for compliance with Ordinance 05-060, the "Art in Public Places" program and must demonstrate their participation.

Following are our comments with the appropriate Code and Land Development Regulations (LDR) referenced. PUBLIC WORKS - GENERAL 1. Prior to permit application contact the Public Works Department (561-742-6200) regarding the storage and handling of refuse per the CODE, Section 10-26 (a). 2. The applicant has indicated that no refuse collection is required or necessary as documents will be shredded and disposed off-site. The applicant however does not address "incidental" trash such as lunch refuse and the like. While a dumpster may not be required to handle the small volume likely to be generated it does seem that some sort of trash storage for pickup will be needed for this site. Please address how this will be handled, roll-out cart(s) being the logical alternative. 3. The loading zone on the northwest corner of the proposed retail building overlaps the area needed for the solid waste trucks to approach and back from the dumpster enclosure. Relocate the loading zone further south to avoid this conflict. 4. Remove or relocate the Live Oak proposed adjacent to the dumpster enclosure to eliminate vertical conflicts for the Solid Waste trucks. PUBLIC WORKS - TRAFFIC 5. Provide a notice of concurrency (Traffic Performance Standards Review) from Palm Beach County Traffic Engineering. 6. The provided traffic analysis indicates that a right-turn lane at the driveway on Boynton Beach Blvd. will be required. The traffic study should reconsider the addition of a right-turn lane at the driveway on Winchester Park Blvd. Queuing and stacking for the drive-through lanes that may cause backing onto Winchester Park Blvd. should also be addressed in the traffic study. 7. Revise all plans to show the required right-turn lane on Boynton Beach Blvd. into the site. Department of Public Works/Engineering Division Memo No. 06-002 Re: Commerce Bank @ Winchester Shops, New Site Plan - 1st Review January 9, 2006 Page 2 8. On the Site and Civil plans, show and identify all necessary traffic control devices such as stop bars, stop signs, double yellow lane separators striping, directional arrows and "Do Not Enter" signage, etc. See City Standard Drawings "K" Series for striping details. 9. Add painted "STOP" messages on the pavement at each of the stop bars leaving the drive-through lanes for the bank. 1 O. Indicate location of the "Handicap Parking Only" signs for the handicap spaces throughout the site. ENGINEERING 11. Add a general note to the Site Plan that all plans submitted for specific permits shall meet the City's Code requirements at time of application. These permits include, but are not limited to, the following: paving, drainage, curbing, site lighting, landscaping and irrigation. Permits required from other permitting agencies such as Florida Department of Transportation (FOOT), South Florida Water Management District (SFWMD), Lake Worth Drainage District (LWDD), Florida Department of Environmental Protection (FDEP), Palm Beach County Health Department (PBCHD), Palm Beach County Engineering Department (PBCED), Palm Beach County Department of Environmental Resource Management (PBCDERM) and any others, shall be included with the permit request. 12. All comments requiring changes and/or corrections to the plans shall be reflected on all appropriate sheets. 13. Please note that changes or revisions to these plans may generate additional comments. Acceptance of these plans during the Technical Advisory Review Team (TART) process does not ensure that additional comments may not be generated by the Commission and at permit review. 14. Provide a photometric plan so that lighting levels can be evaluated against the LOR requirements. 15. Show sight triangles on the Landscape plans (LOR, Chapter 7.5, Article II, Section 5.H.) Reference FOOT Standard Index 546 for the sight triangles on Boynton Beach Blvd. and City Standard P-14 for the sight triangles on Winchester Park Blvd. 16. Indicate, by note on the Landscape Plan, that within the sight triangles there shall be an unobstructed cross-visibility at a level between 2.5-ft. and a-ft. above the pavement (LOR, Chapter 7.5, Article II, Section 5.H.) 17. The medians on Boynton Beach Blvd. have existing irrigation and plant material belonging to the City of Boynton Beach. Any damage to the irrigation system and/or plant material as a result of the contractor's operations shall be repaired or replaced to the equivalent or better grade, as approved by the City of Boynton Beach, and shall be the sole responsibility of the developer. The contractor shall notify and coordinate with the City of Boynton Beach Forestry & Grounds Division of Public Works a minimum of six (6) weeks in advance of any underground activities. Please acknowledge this notice in your comments response and add a note to the appropriate plan sheets with the above stated information. 18. Only 2.5-ft. has been allowed to place landscaping along the north property line. A minimum of 10-ft. should be provided to allow sufficient room for the proposed canopy trees to mature. The following Department of Public Works/Engineering Division Memo No. 06-002 Re: Commerce Bank @ Winchester Shops, New Site Plan - 1 sl Review January 9, 2006 Page 3 three comments assume that the plans have been revised to provide additional space for planting along the north property line. 19. Canopy trees should be placed a minimum of 10-ft. inside property lines to allow for maintenance as the trees mature. 20. Palm trees should be placed a minimum of 5-ft. inside property lines to allow for maintenance as they mature. 21. The Live Oaks proposed along the north property line will present a vertical conflict with high profile vehicles. Staff strongly recommends use of a different Live Oak cultivar, such as Cathedral or High- Rise to minimize the potential for vertical conflicts with high-profile vehicles. Alternately use of a palm species should be considered in this space. 22. Note 12, Sheet C-3, states that Kimley-Horn is making assumptions about the ultimate drainage outfall. The City sincerely hopes that the Engineer of Record is not guessing about how his drainage design will work. 23. Full drainage plans, including drainage calculations, in accordance with the LDR, Chapter 6, Article IV, Section 5 will be required at the time of permitting. 24. Paving, Drainage and Site details will not be reviewed for construction acceptability at this time. All engineering construction details shall be in accordance with the applicable City of Boynton Beach Standard Drawings and the "Engineering Design Handbook and Construction Standards" and will be reviewed at the time of construction permit application. UTILITIES 25. Please provide a timeline that clearly illustrates when water and sewer services will be required to serve the proposed project. Your starting date for the timeline should be the date of City Commission approval. Also provide milestone dates for permit application, the start of construction, and the setting of the first water meter. This timeline will be used to determine the adequacy of water and wastewater treatment capacity for your project upon the project's completion, so please be as accurate as possible. 26. No utility plan was included with this submittal, therefore this plan is considered incomplete as submitted. However, the proposed Site Plan is an existing site located within the Utilities' service area, is located where utility support is available, and has a utility plan which has previously been reviewed and permitted for this site. We are providing only a cursory review of the proposed site plan as submitted at this time. Additional comments may be required after a utility plan has been submitted. 27. All utility easements and utility lines shall be shown on the site plan and landscape plans (as well as the Water & Sewer Plan when submitted) so that we may determine which appurtenances, trees or shrubbery may interfere with utilities. In general, palm trees will be the only tree species allowed within utility easements. Canopy trees may be planted outside of the easement so that roots and branches will not impact those utilities within the easement in the foreseeable future. The LDR, Department of Public Works/Engineering Division Memo No. 06-002 Re: Commerce Bank @ Winchester Shops, New Site Plan - 1 sl Review January 9, 2006 Page 4 Chapter 7.5, Article I, Section 18.1 gives public utilities the authority to remove any trees that interfere with utility services, either in utility easements or public rights-of-way. 28. Palm Beach County Health Department permits will be required for the water and sewer systems serving this project (CODE, Section 26-12). 29. Fire flow calculations will be required demonstrating the City Code requirement of 1,500 g.p.m. (500 g.p.m. some residential developments) with 20 p.s.i. residual pressure as stated in the LOR, Chapter 6, Article IV, Section 16, or the requirement imposed by insurance underwriters, whichever is greater (CODE, Section 26-16(b)). 30. The LOR, Chapter 6, Article IV, Section 16 requires that all points on each building will be within 200 feet of an existing or proposed fire hydrant. Please demonstrate that the plan meets this condition, by showing all hydrants. 31. The CODE, Section 26-34(E) requires that a capacity reservation fee be paid for this project either upon the request for the Department's signature on the Health Department application forms or within seven (7) days of site plan approval, whichever occurs first. This fee will be determined based upon final meter size, or expected demand. 32. Comprehensive Plan Policy 3.C.3.4. requires the conservation of potable water. As other sources are readily available City water shall not be allowed for irrigation. 33. Water and sewer lines to be owned and operated by the City shall be included within utility easements. Please show all proposed easements on the engineering drawings, using a minimum width of 12 feet. The easements shall be dedicated via separate instrument to the City as stated in CODE Sec. 26-33(a). For the applicant's information, there is an existing 12-in./15-in. VCP sewer across the front of the property (along Boynton Beach Boulevard), an 8-in. water main and a 16-in. force main, none of which are shown on their site plan. More than one of these utility mains will affect their proposed landscaping plan on both roadways adjacent to the property. 34. This office will not require surety for installation of the water and sewer utilities, on condition that the systems be fully completed, and given to the City Utilities Department before the first permanent meter is set. Note that setting of a permanent water meter is a prerequisite to obtaining the Certificate of Occupancy. 35. A building permit for this project shall not be issued until this Department has approved the plans for the water and/or sewer improvements required to service this project, in accordance with the CODE, Section 26-15. 36. PVC material not permitted on the City's water system. All lines shall be DIP. 37. Appropriate backflow preventer(s) will be required on the domestic water service to the building, and the fire sprinkler line if there is one, in accordance with the CODE, Section 26-207. 38. The LOR, Chapter 3, Article IV, Section 3(0) requires Master Plans to show all utilities on or adjacent to the proposed tract. The plan must therefore show the point of service for water and sewer, and the proposed off-site utilities construction needed in order to service this project. Department of Public Works/Engineering Division Memo No. 06-002 Re: Commerce Bank @ Winchester Shops, New Site Plan - 1 st Review January 9, 2006 Page 5 39. The LOR, Chapter 3, Article IV, Section 3(P) requires a statement be included that utilities are available and will be provided by all other appropriate agencies. This statement is lacking on the submitted plans. 40. Utility construction details will not be reviewed for construction acceptability at this time. All utility construction details shall be in accordance with the Utilities Department's "Utilities Engineering Design Handbook and Construction Standards" manual (including any updates) and will be reviewed at the time of construction permit application.
