For projects disturbing over 5,000 s.f. we would require Stormwater Management Plan for review. Mar :59PM dnunez wrote - Total area of disturbance is 12,333 s.f. Please provide overall project stormwater management plan that is required through DOEE. MEP Type 2 Memo is required in the stormwater management plan for private parcel developments that impact the PROW. Please refer to Appendix B of the DOEE Stormwater Management Guidebook. Per the Sustainable DC Plan, DDOT is tasked with reducing stormwater runoff in public space and increasing pervious areas. As the patio does not serve a required pedestrian use, please consider the use of permeable paving. It is understood that the site lacks a storm sewer line, however, permeable paving is shown to be utilized in the drive-thru. Please address this concern through evaluation of possible permeable patio paving per the MEP Type 2 process. The plans have been revised to show the total area of disturbance as 12,333 SF, and the public space area of disturbance as 2,889 SF. Since the public space disturbed area is less than 5,000 SF, a Stormwater Management Plan is not required for review. The cafe is now proposed with permeable pavers. See Sheet C-2.0.

OP can largely support the new configuration of the tree box and sidewalk. - Curb cuts and drive-thru use are not ideal for a highly walkable corridor such as Connecticut Avenue. However, OP appreciates the additional planter space proposed on either side of each as a means to mitigate potential conflicts between pedestrians The sidewalk café no longer requires a step for the change of and motor vehicle entering and exiting the facility. - Please provide grade. A landscape buffer has been added surrounding the additional clarification on the platform to be constructed for the cafe sidewalk café where the difference in grade is made up. A seating area such as details and other specs necessary to understand section going through the proposed sidewalk café has been the construction and need for it. Please also provide a section through provided as Section D-D on Sheet C-3.0. Please also see the the sidewalk or a detailed grading plan that shows the existing slope Patio Plan, Sheet A0001_5. The reuse of the highway-style where the cafe is proposed. The platform should be designed in such monument sign is no longer proposed. A new, smaller sign is a way that it rests on top of the existing sidewalk and if it were ever proposed. See the Signage Plan, L required to be removed, should cause no permanent alterations to the existing paving or grade. It should also be designed to be only as tall as necessary to create an even surface, up to a height of 18" maximum. - OP does not support the reuse of the highway-style monument sign if it projects into public space.

As currently submitted, OP can support this application. Acknowleged. Approved with Condition 3

PPSA notes: -The additional landscape buffers adjacent to the south driveway are good. Please center this driveway on the drive aisle in private space, however. - The sidewalk offset is appropriate.

DDOT's responsibility is to review any new memorandum with subject, "Van Ness Chick-Fil-A permit to ensure it meets our current standards for safety and transportation Transportation Review Summary," by Gorove / Slade, dated elements.

Our expectation would be that the safest, not necessarily the memorandum. most "convenient", optimal solution be put forward. Documentation as to why other solutions are substandard is necessary. -To provide this information, a study showing the anticipated generated trips, queuing analysis, and operations in the local context is necessary. This study will be reviewed by DDOT to allow us to fully understand the proposed curb cuts. If necessary, performance monitoring elements could be suggested. Please coordinate with DDOT as to the full extent of this study and exploration. Please let me know if you have any additional questions. 12 UFA 12/1/2015 Sharon Dendy Dec 1, :44PM Dendy wrote - Approval is based on the 1.
