The source of the Infiltration Testing listed on the table on page 8 of the Stormwater Management Measures Maintenance Plan and Field Manuals must be shown. 13. The Stormwater Management Measures Maintenance Plan and Field Manuals should be revised to include the name, address, and telephone number of the person or persons responsible for maintenance of the system. 14.

Revise the Stormwater Management Measures Maintenance Plan and Field Manuals to include the preventive maintenance actions and the corrective maintenance actions for the existing AquaShield. D. LANDSCAPING COMMENTS 1. The ‘Plant Schedule’ on sheet L-01 has been revised to increase the installation size for almost all trees (both evergreen and deciduous) to be a minimum of 4” caliper.

It is our recommendation that the plans be revised to provide deciduous trees at 2.5” caliper and evergreen trees at 6’ in height. E. LIGHTING COMMENTS 1.

The Applicant should provide testimony regarding the necessity of uplighting. In accordance with Section 25-14.2, lighting is to be directed downwards, as up lights are not dark sky compliant. 3. Provide manufacturer's catalog cuts for all proposed light fixtures, for further review. Also, include proposed color and finish. The Applicant is hereby
