permit. Including the dedication of easements
3) That the Fire Chief s and Building Official's comments outlined below from their letter dated
12/21/17 be incorporated into the plans prior to final approval:
a. The existing fire hydrants as shown will not be adequate for coverage on the site,
The proposed location for the Fire Department Connection will ultimately dictate a
final location for one of the needed hydrants and there will need to be a hydrant
located on the north end of the site for sure. There will also need to be a hydrant
located on the property side of the round -a -bout, the hydrant currently located across
the drive lane does not provide a viable use as hose laid from this hydrant will then
block the drive lane entry from further emergency vehicle access.
b: The rear of the site has very limited access, there is an assemble area proposed on the
back with a fire pit and access is very limited. With a 4 story residential building like
this, there is a need for wider access/walkway, There is a proposed hard surface
around the back of the building but the hard surface will need to be wider, without
emergency vehicle access ability, the hard surface will need to be wide enough to
accommodate the ability for emergency personnel to deploy hand ladders for
emergency rescue operations.
Resolution No. 2018-OXX
N
e. The ability for apparatus to access and maneuver in and around the site is another
issue that needs review, typically the engineering review will verify adequate access
including turn radius for emergency vehicle access.
& There are other architectural/code review items that will arise once the project
reaches the plan review stage.
4) The applicant comply with all conditions of the South Washington Watershed District per it
17-003 issued on December 12, 2017.

water infiltration areas prior to the issuance of a building permit.

Staff shall review all such signs for conformance with the Eagle Point Business Park Design
and Development Standards and the City sign code.
7) That the Applicant enter in to a site work agreement with the City for all work within the
public right-of-way.
8) That a permit be secured for demolition of the existing Eagle Park Business Park
development sign if it is lit or electrified.
9) That the exterior materials and colors are consistent with what is outlined in the Business
