ASSOCIATES Chairman and Members of the West Orange Township Planning Board September 6, 2019 Re: Prism Capital Partners, LLC (PB 19-04) Our File No. VWRP0115.01 Preliminary & Final Major Site Plan with Page 7 “C" Variances and Tree Removal Permit Application Review #1 sae: 29. The Utility Plan (sheet 4.0) shows that a cleanout is proposed at the westerly end of the proposed 8" sanitary sewer main. For maintenance purposes, the cleanout should be replaced with a manhole. 30. The Utility Plan (sheet 4.0) shows that the two (2) sewer laterals from each building will tee together prior to entering the sewer main. It is our recommendation that each sewer lateral be run directly to the sewer main. In addition, a cleanout should be provided on each lateral prior to entering the sewer main. 31. The plans must be revised to include a profile of the proposed sanitary sewer main. 32. The Utility Plan (sheet 4.0) shows that a new electrical pole and overhead electrical line are proposed to provide extend electrical power to the site. As stipulated in the General Standards and Prohibitions section in the Second Amendment to Downtown Redevelopment Plan, all utility distribution lines and utility service connections from such lines shall be located underground. Therefore, the plans should be revised accordingly. 33. The Photometric Plan (sheet 4.1) shows that the level of illumination in the surface parking lot and in front of buildings 7 & 8 will be as low as 0.0 foot candles which is unacceptable. The plan should be revised to provide a minimum level of illumination of 0.5 foot candles in these areas. 34. The Photometric Plan (sheet 4.1) should be revised to include a note which states that shields or cutoffs shall be installed when necessary to prevent glare or the spillover of light onto adjacent residential properties or public streets. 35. The light pole details on the Photometric Plan (sheet 4.1) shows that the single head light fixture will be 17 ft high (204.00") while the double head light fixture will be 18 ft high (216.36").

n-site lighting fixtures shall be in scale with the size of the project’. \t further states that “pedestrian scale lighting of no more than 15 ft in height is encouraged”. The Applicant should provide testimony to the Board to demonstrate that the proposed parking lot lights comply with the intent of the Redevelopment Plan. 36. The Typical Sidewalk Detail on sheet 6.0 must be revised to specify the use of Class B concrete having a 28-day verification strength of 4,500 psi as stipulated in the RSIS. 37. Sheet 6.0 includes a Chain Link Fence Detail which specifies the installation of 2-3/8"@ corner posts, 7/8"@ line posts and 2” x 2” mesh. It is our recommendation that 3"@ corner posts, 2-1/2"@ line posts and non-climbable mesh be installed for safety reasons. 38. The Typical Storm Manhole Detail on sheet 6.1 must be revised to specify the manhole frame and cover that is proposed. s1 Orange\Planning Board\WRPO1 1501 - Prism Capital Partners, LLC MjSP\Review #1 09-08-2019.doc
