Subject: VSSA Soil Correction south of 58th Street (Parcel ID # 0502920140002)
Eric:
I have reviewed VSSA's application regarding soils corrections and have the following comments corresponding
to the 12 items rioted in GME's 12/23/04 letter:
4) GME indicates they will " backfill the excavations to original grade with a suitable soil." "Suitable soil"
needs to be defined/quantified as to what type of material this is.
7) The property survey/lot dimension plan requirement is not met by what they have submitted. Need to see
something with some property lines and dimensions/bearings. Additionally, the exact locations of the
excavations should be shown (via a record plan) for documentation purposes.
8) The indicate no drainage & grading plan was submitted because nor permanent grade changes are
proposed. While this is true, a plan showing contours/elevations should be submitted to verify grades
(previously proposed developments in this area had shown this information so it shouldn't be difficult to
acquire), and an erosion and sediment control plan should be provided particularly since they indicate
backfilling won't occur for 2 — 3 weeks after excavation.
11) Regarding traffic/vehicular access --- They need to show where the access point will be one access to
58th Street is allowable, there should not be any to Oakgreen Ave. (they indicate protecting curbs and
landscaping to 58th Street and Oakgreen Ave.?)
