The Applicant has requested a de minimis exception from the Residential Site Improvement Standards to permit 381 parking spaces whereas 479 parking spaces are required. Sheet SP-3 of the site plan drawings states that 8 electric vehicle stations in the garage will be installed within 3 years of C.O. and an additional 12 electric vehicle stations in the garage will be installed within 6 years of C.O. Sheet A1.0 of the architectural plans must be revised to identify the electric vehicle stations that will be installed within 3 years and the electric vehicle stations that will be installed within 6 years. Sheet SP-3 must be revised to dimension the width of the sidewalks in the interior courtyard area. It shows on sheet SP-3 that the southerly handicap parking space in the parking lot at the northeast corner of the site will not be electric vehicle ready. However, this parking space includes a callout which indicates that the electric vehicle station will be installed within 6 years of C.O. This discrepancy must be resolved. The Basin #2 callout on sheet SP-4 states that the rim elevation will be at elevation 419.00 whereas the callout for OS #5-6A shows a rim elevation of 418.00. This discrepancy must be resolved. The Basin #3 callout on sheet SP-4 states that the rim elevation will be at elevation 421.00 whereas the callout for OS #1-9 shows a rim elevation of 420.00. This discrepancy must be resolved. MH #8-1 must be shown on the profile on sheet SP-10. The Basin #1B — OS #8-5 detail on sheet SP-21 shows that it will be installed within a paved area whereas sheet SP-6 shows no pavement in the area. This discrepancy must be resolved. Section A-A on the Basin #1A — OS #5-7 detail on sheet SP-21 shows that the grate will be at elevation 423.30 whereas Section B-B it shows that the grate will be at elevation 423.32. This discrepancy must be resolved. Section A-A on the Basin #2 — OS #5-6A detail on sheet SP-21 shows that the orifices are to be installed in the exterior wall of the structure which is incorrect.

In addition, it states in §25-29.4q that stormwater runoff quality standards are only applicable when the major development results in an increase of one-quarter acre or more of regulated motor vehicle surface which this project does not. Therefore, the Applicant must demonstrate that the project meets the minimum standards for stormwater runoff quantity set forth in §25-29.40 and r. As stipulated in §25-29.403, the design engineer shall utilize BMPs from Table 1 or from Table 2 and/or an alternative stormwater management measure approved in accordance with §25-29.4g.

The Applicant states that the soils from the site that were tested did not have adequate permeability for infiltration. The Applicant should provide testimony to the Board setting forth the reasons why the requested waiver should be granted. Our office has reviewed the Stormwater Maintenance Manual and finds that Section | must be revised to include the telephone number of the responsible party. The Stormwater Maintenance Manual and any future revisions must be recorded upon the deed of record for the property. Prior to recording, the form of the deed must be approved by the Board Attorney and our office.

Revise the plans to provide an alternative for proposed PS (White Pine) due to the species’ mature habit of losing its lower limbs, which does not provide for an adequate buffer. Revise the plans to provide building foundation shrubs, perennials and grasses, to enhance aesthetics. Currently, plant material has not been provided. Revise the plans to indicate the Township Engineer within the ‘Landscape Specifications’ on sheet L2.0 for plant relocations and substitutions, prior to install. Revise the plans to provide rigid, plastic, open mesh trunk guards for all deciduous trees, to protect form the irreparable damage from buck rub. Revise the plans to indicate the proposed disposition for all open areas, such as lawn, stone, mulch, etc., to prevent confusion during construction. D. LIGHTING COMMENTS 1.
