V1 E iL JUN 4 2012 1 FREDEnICA COUNTY , pl o!,iialnlr., c, DEVri OPIEh, We have revised the Site Plan per your comments of May 25, 2012. 1 have attached one copy here. Specific responses to each comment are as follows: 1. General Notes. On the cover sheet provide a note about underground utilities. A note has been added on sheet C5.0. 2. Parking Space Calculation. A calculation of 1.5 /employee needs to be used for the site therefore if the site has 1 employee then two spaces are required. The proposed use for this site has been revised to be an unmanned structure. Therefore, no parking spaces are required. 3. Surface Material. Gravel is not a permitted surface material for the driveway and the parking spaces, this are must consist of asphalt pavement or concrete. Pavement is no longer necessary because we have removed the parking lot. 4. Landscaping. Two trees are required and the one parking space needs to have shrubs along the front. Due to the fact that this site does not have extensive interior /perimeter landscaping, the two trees perimeter /interior (changed to evergreen) landscaping trees plus an additional two for headlight screening could be planted along the edge of gravel as indicated on sheet 5. As no parking spaces are provided, a gravel drive to access the unmanned structure can remain. 5. Lighting. The site shows four lights located at the properly corners, a photometric plan needs to be provided that shows the types offrxtures, height and lighting levels. Indicate if there is any building mounted lighting. A photometric plan has been included with this resubmittal. 117 East Piccadilly Street, Winchester, VA 22601 -5002 • Tel: 540- 667 -2139 • Fax: 540- 665 -0493 www.phra.com www.pennoni.com 12415 -1 -0 0 May 31, 2012 Page 2 Frederick County Planning and Development Echostar Site Diversity Building 6..
