ECHO FARMS PARK [TRC Plan Review#4]
BASE CONDITIONS: SCOPE OF WORK
1. The Utility Plans do not match the site plans, which show 5 existing Tennis Courts and 5 additional Tennis Courts. Please clarify the plans.
TECHNICAL STANDARDS – ACCESS (driveway, sidewalk, and sight distance):
2. As previously stated, the site has a city street that passes between the Park Property. Sidewalk is required on the property frontage on both sides of Echo Farms Blvd.
3. The site plans show the proposed multi-use path crossing on of the proposed Tennis Courts. The installation of the court will result in the destruction, removal and closure of the multi-use path. Please provide a design that has the Multi-Use Path outside the designated area for the Tennis Courts. If the scope of work for this project has changed, please provide documentation of the change.
4. The standard width for a City Path is 10’ width. Public Parks, such as the Empie Park Cross City Trail and Wade Park Cross City Trail sections, are 10’ wide. If the NHC Parks and City of Wilmington Parks has requested an 8’ wide path, please reply and show a note on the plans.
5. The site plans do not show the correct detail for the 10’ Asphalt Multi-Use Path. Please contact City Engineering department to get correct details for side slope, base material, asphalt, and slope/drainage for the Multi-use path.
6. As previously stated, please show the details for the Multi-Use Path across the wetlands areas. The details include footings/ pilings within the wetlands, materials, and railings.
7. The proposed 10’ Multi-Use Trail crosses the new streets for the adjacent Woodlands at Echo Tracts, such as Chastain Drive, however, the plans do not show Tactile Mats, Crosswalks, Pedestrian Crossing Signs, or handicap ramps, at the crossing location.
MISCELLANEOUS:
Transportation Planning Staff will review the landscape plan once submitted for compliance with sight distance requirements.
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.
Engineering has reviewed the plans for the Echo Farms Park project submitted June 18, 2019 and have the following attached comments.
