CIVIL WORKS CONTRACTING [TRC Plan Review #5]
Initial Review Note
All comments are based on adopted policy documents, specific City of Wilmington Land Development Code (CofW LDC) and City of Wilmington Technical Standards and Specifications Manual (CofWTSSM) requirements in effect at the time of this review. These have been noted after the comment as appropriate for your ease in further research.
The City Engineer may administratively approve dimensional variance requests per LDC Sec. 18-348. If the Applicant feels further interpretation is in order, please contact Transportation Planning directly to discuss in additional detail. Please apply for all administrative variances in writing, an email is acceptable or this may be included on the plan set. Please see Sec. 18-348 of the Land Development Code for the information required to process a variance request.
TECHNICAL STANDARDS – ACCESS (driveway, sidewalk, and sight distance):
1. Due to the no-standard shape of the 36’ driveway on the NW side of the building, pavement markings will be necessary to show lane markings, stop bars, and turn arrows.
2. Show the Stop Sign for the 24’ driveway.
3. Show any proposed signs for the 66’ Private Access Easement.
TECHNICAL STANDARDS – PARKING AD BARRIER FREE ACCESS
4. The 16 space parking lot appears to be missing a couple of wheel stops.
5. Please revise the detail for wheel stops. The typical height for wheel stops is 4 inches.
6. The LDC Sec 18-528 requires 5 bicycle parking space for parking lots greater than 25 parking spaces.
7. Please verify the Accessible route from the Handicap Parking Spaces on the Northern Parking lot to the entrances on the Northern side of the building. The elevations on CG-100 appear to show this area may exceed the 5% ADA slope from the top of sidewalk to the building opening.
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.
