Engineering Comments are as follows:
1. Applicant will be required to follow the requirements of a major development within the Urban
Runoff Management Plan. The conceptual HPC plan shows the installation of a water quality vault
to account for stormwater requirements. The plans show an infiltration vault to accommodate the
WQCV within 10’ of two property lines. Infiltration vaults must follow the same guidelines as
drywells. Drywells must be 10' from property corners. If there are no alternatives a variance is
required to allow an infiltration vault within 10' of the property lines. The variance shall address
proper separation from the hydrant so as not to cause freezing issues.
2. The plans show a transformer across the alley. Does this transformer serve the property and does
the existing transformer have capacity for the increased use? Will this property require a new
transformer? Work with the City Electric Department to determine available capacity. A Load Calc
Form will be required at time of building permit.
3. The conceptual plans show a new water service line. At building permit also show abandonment
of the existing line. Verify if the structure will have a fire suppression system and call out water
service line size. If a 2” is requested provide a memo from the fire suppression company stating a
smaller line size will not provide adequate flows.
4. Excavation for the proposed water quality vault must be examined with the Engineering and Parks
Departments. No excavation will be allowed within the ROW or the tree drip lines of the large
trees in the vicinity.
5. Application calls out the historic building to be relocated for excavation. What is the proposed
system for stabilization? At building permit, provide excavation and stabilization plans. Include
information on how the structure will be supported.
Thanks.

Hello Everyone,
Attached is the HP application for 135 W. Francis Street – Conceptual Design Review. This project
includes plans to demolish a non-historic addition, relocate the historic home on a new full basement
and the construction of a new addition. They are requesting setback variations for the design as well as
a floor area bonus.
Let me know if you have questions and if you have any comments, please send them to me via email by
Monday, June 7th. (This is a courtesy review with no referral fees.)
Thank you,
-Sarah-
