FYI - Additional comments may be provided as a result of information or design changes provided in your update. Water Quality Review - David Marquez - 512-974-3389 WQ1 Fiscal posting per the subdivision fiscal posting and per ECM 1.2.1 will need to be posted prior to approval. The estimate is received, and I will coordinate with the county for the fiscal posting. WQ2 With the County reviewing for drainage easement, DCM 1.2.4G, coordination for the location of the pond and the easements will need to occur. Irrigation location was agreed upon but the location of the public drainage easement and the proposed pond should be coordinated so there is not a conflict with a private pond in a public easement. Since the pond will be privately maintained, this may need a private easement with required maintenance while the channel would likely remain as a public easement. B-105 of 6 Wetlands Biologist Review - Ana Gonzalez - 512-974-2929 The proposed final plat reflects those wetland CEF provisions approved during the review of the preliminary plan and are compliant with LDC 30-5-281 and ECM 1.10.4.

Site Plan Plumbing - Juan Beltran - 512-974-1663 NO SITE PLAN PLUMBING REVIEW REQUIRED The proposed final plat (C8J-2018-0208.1A) is outside the zoning jurisdiction of the City of Austin and will not receive water or wastewater service from Austin Water Utility, therefore the Austin Plumbing Code is not applicable.
