Review Letter: ACE Solid Waste April 6, 2000 Page 3 of 4 Fuel Storage: The site plan proposes one fueling station that includes a canopy. The fueling station will include two pumps with a 10,000 gallon under ground storage area. The Fire Chief has reviewed the proposed site plan and has no issues with what is being proposed. Loading Berth: In accordance with City Code, tile regularly used loading berths for the office/track facility will be located on the rear or north wall of the structure. A minimum of one 50-foot loading berth is required for this sized structure and one is provided. The transfer station is also required to provide one 50-foot loading berth and one is provided on the south side. Architectural Standards: The proposed office/track facility does not exceed the 35-foot height limit. The exterior walls are proposed to consist of rock and smooth face concrete block with a pre-finished metal wrapped column and canopy to match accent color. The proposed transfer station is well under the 35-foot height restriction. The building materials for the transfer station will match the office/track facility. The exterior walls will be a precast gray concrete (rock and smooth face) with red accents and a prefinished metal cap throughout the top of the building. Drainage, Grading and Erosion Control: The drainage and grading plan for this site was prepared by Charles W. Plowe. The topography of the 8.7-acre site is relatively flat with elevations ranging from 866 to 872 feet. The grading plan proposes to drain the entire site, except for driveway entrances, into two detention ponds located within the northeast and southeast comers of the property. The northeast pond outlets into the southeast pond which in turn outlets into a 36-inch storm sewer located in McKinley Street. The plan' dated February 11, 2000, is acceptable, however, the following comments are offered: 1. The baffle weir on the northeast pond may be eliminated since effluent from this pond will receive skimming from the weir baffle on the southeast pond. 2. The inlet and outlet on the southeast pond should be located on opposite ends of the pond to increase sedimentation efficiency. 3. Calculations showing the stormwater pond storage volumes must be submitted. This plan will need to obtain a permit from the Lower Rum River Water Management Organization (LRRWMO) with regard to site sedimentation control and storm water handling. A copy of the LRRWMO permit may be obtained from City staff. This site will be assigned a storm water utility REF of 1.0, which is the same as a typical single family use. Lighting Plan: The submittal indicates the light fixture locations, but it is deficient of light fixture specifications and fixture diagrams. The complete lighting plan is subject to the approval of the City Engineer. I I I I I I I I I I, I I I I I'
