• Exclude CFPUA utility sheets from future city submittals.
• Required landscape areas (e.g. landscape islands, streetyard, etc) cannot be used to satisfy open space requirements. Previous comment
• Stormwater ponds must be designed and landscaped as amenities to count towards open space requirements. Ponds need to include walking paths or benches in addition to additional landscaping. As shown they appear to be standard ponds with forebays with a few trees planted. Please call me if you would like to discuss. Provide additional landscaping and seating areas. Staff does not believe what is shown satisfies the code requirements. See Standard Detail 15-16 for landscaping.  
• Provide wetland determination/delineation. Previous comment, response noted
• Show required plantings for all required landscape islands. It appears that some islands do not have trees. Adjust shading calculations accordingly. Trees are required in all required landscape islands
• Identify existing trees used to satisfy streetyard planting requirements. Trees must be located within streetyard area on the property.
• Show required number of streetyard trees in streetyard as listed in calculation (41). Only 35 trees shown on plan.
• Protected trees may only be removed as part of essential site improvements or when there are significant grade changes needed for the site. Provide justification for removing the 6 trees north of parking area and east of pond on Sheet CD-102.
• Include agreed upon revision for the multi-use path improvement in subsequent submittals.

After further review, please work closely with your sprinkler engineer to ensure with the amount of hydrants on the fire lines, the water supply will still provide the needed fire flow for all 4 buildings simultaneously. It seems like a lot of demand with only one tap from the main to supply the for buildings. Just a concern, I am NOT an engineer.

Everything else still looks good. Nothing further from fire.

WOODFIELD WILMINGTON [TRC Plan Review #3] TRAFFIC IMPACT:  A Traffic Impact Analysis (TIA) was completed for this development on 6-21-17.  Please show the TIA improvements for this project on the site plan. For the changes to Independence Blvd and the intersections of Carolina Beach Rd/ Independence Blvd and River Road/ Independence Blvd, please show the lane changes and configurations as an additional roadway and pavement marking sheet. TECHNICAL STANDARDS – DRIVEWAY ACCESS (Major Thoroughfares): 1. The TIA requires a turn lane and right turn taper on Site Access #2 and Site Access #3. Please show all site driveways and the turn lane and appropriate tapers on driveways #2 and #3Please show the right lane taper for Driveway Access #2. 2. The proposed right turn lane for Driveway #3 appears to meet the TIA requirements for a turn lane with appropriate deceleration and taper. TECHNICAL STANDARDS – PARKING: 3. Please clarify the location of handicap parking spaces on Site Plan versus Landscape Plan. Please let me know if you have any questions or if I can be of further assistance as this development moves through the review process.
