Info Only: Land Use is Industrial and permits the proposed Warehouse activity.
Correct the survey to show the measurement from the Centerline of Race Track Rd/SW 3rd Street to the property line.
Info Only: According to the Broward County Trafficways Plan, Race Track Road is intended to be a 106 foot ROW rather than a 60 foot ROW as labeled on the survey. The current overall ROW is greater than 60 feet. The final measurement from property line to centerline will be required to be 53 feet to be consistent with the Broward County Trafficways Plan. Show the final dimension to centerline (post dedication, as necessary) on the Site Plan. This may be confirmed with the Broward County Planning Council.

Plan Reviewer: Mark Brumet | mark.brumet@copbfl.com
Unresolved: 1. It appears that previous comments were misunderstood. The plan is now further away from being approvable. Please have the landscape architect coordinate plan corrections with the design team.
Unresolved: 2. Required trees have been bunched up and not in line with code minimum separation of 15’ between trees. Correct plan and coordinate tree locations with UF staff.
Unresolved : 3. Pursuant to Code Section 155.5203.C & Table 155.5203.C Minimum Development Site Landscaping: Provide Minimum Development Site Landscaping in accordance with the referenced code sections. Information provided in the data table is incorrect. Update table to reflect code requirements.
Unresolved : 4. Provide soil specifications of mix and ratio to be used for all landscape areas. Staff recommends the use of 70/30 soil mix ratio as it is closer in composition to the native soils in Pompano Beach but still provides enough organic requirements for trees and plants to thrive. Correct note #A under 2.06 Planting Soil on sheet LS-03 to specify native soil PH and organic content to be inline with industry standards. Also add note that soil may need to be amended to meet minimum nutritional and ph requirements consistent with 70/30 mix to properly sustain plant life.
Unresolved: 5. Provide a planting detail and note to reflect the following current industry standard and BMP’s: tree and palm planting holes are to be 2.5 to 3 times the size of the root ball. Correct Multi-trunk tree detail and note #F of the Planting section on sheet LS-03.
Unresolved: 6. Identify location of all FDC’s and pipes, underground/above ground utilities, proposed signage, building footers and/or overhangs. In Addition provide a cross section detail of the proposed building footers / slab as it appears that it will encroach into the required foundation landscaping soil space at the footers of the building. Provide drawings and verification of the use of monolithic / eccentric footings as it relates to these areas.
Unresolved: 7. Provide bubblers for all new tree/palm installations and relocations until establishment. Correct note #8 on sheet IRR-02 to state ALL trees.
Unresolved: 8. Turf area shall extend to edge of travel lane adjacent to dumpster.
Unresolved: 9. Remove all landscaping shown on the irrigation plan. Only show location of irrigation system components.
Unresolved: 10. Provide a comment response sheet as to specifically how comments have been addressed at time of resubmittal.
Info Only: Additional comments may be rendered upon re-submittal.
