The existing site currently has an elementary school, agricultural barn, and ancillary buildings that enable access for students across the district. The site is located in the Lake Travis and Bull Creek Watersheds. Water, fire, wastewater, and storm networks are established on site, and a majority of the site falls within the 0% - 15% slope category. The proposed development is 3.26 acres of staff and bus parking and a fuel system. Additional improvements include installing a new storm drain network, upsizing the existing, onsite storm drain network downstream of the new connection, expansion to the detention, sedimentation and filtration basins. The proposed developments will be constructed in one phase. Storm network improvements will utilize curb inlets that connect to HDPE piping, 45- degree wyes, 45-degree bends, and manholes to convey storm runoff for the 2 year, 25 year, and 100 year storms. Piping transitions to Class III reinforced concrete prior to conveyance to the splitter box. The storm network has been designed in accordance with City of Austin’s Drainage Criteria Manual. Existing storm infrastructure will be kept in place unless upsizing is required or existing inlets along the trunk line require replacement. The south end of the site contains several drainage areas that currently discharge into two separate City storm networks: one along Woodbay Parke Drive, which carries runoff northward, and another along Vista Parke Drive, which channels runoff southward. Currently, 2.40 acres of the site contribute to the storm infrastructure along Woodbay Parke Drive. Post-construction, this contribution will be reduced to 1.21 acres. Similarly, the area contributing to the Vista Parke Drive network will decrease from 3.79 acres to 3.16 acres. This reduction in runoff to the City networks is achieved by capturing and redirecting the stormwater onsite. The collected runoff will be conveyed to the north, where it will be managed by a detention and water quality pond. An existing detention and water quality pond will be enlarged to accommodate the increased flows resulting from additional impervious cover. 13 SP-88-0052CX(R4) - LISD ES No. 19 Grandview Hills Ancillary Building Project; District 104 of 43 We are requesting a variance from the City’s requirement for new water quality treatment to use Green Storm Water Quality Infrastructure (GSI). Instead, we propose expanding the existing water quality pond (sedimentation and filtration basin) to provide treatment for all proposed site improvements. The primary reason for this request is the presence of a fueling area on-site, and the frequent presence of fuel tanker trucks refilling the tanks. If a spill were to happen, whether at the fuel tank, or at another location on-site spilling from a truck, the water quality pond will be much more capable than GSI to contain the pollutants. The gate valve at the water quality pond's discharge point can simply be turned off. GSI, such as rain gardens or bio-filtration, would likely need to be replaced in the event of a spill and would not provide adequate containment. Additionally, the site already has a well-established stormwater network, including conveyance pipes and detention/water quality ponds, making the expansion of the existing infrastructure the most feasible and lowest-impact solution. Leander Independent School District (LISD) maintains its own water quality systems and prefers to expand the existing pond for maintenance and cost purposes. Finally, the presence of several karst features on the site presents challenges to localized GSI solutions. The most practical way to manage runoff from the proposed improved areas is to convey it through the existing storm network to the existing water quality pond. The water quality pond has been designed in accordance to ECM 1.6.5 and will effectively treat the runoff. The existing storm network at the north end of the site, feeding into the existing splitter box currently does not currently meet the minimum cover requirements or horizontal separation distances to existing grate inlets along the trunk line. It is assumed that the City granted a waiver for the minimum coverage and minimum horizontal separation requirements. The existing network consists of a 24” HDPE pipe, approved in the 2007 revision 2. The area in question is a grassy infield that does not receive any vehicular traffic flow. To mitigate the flow increase, the existing 24” HDPE pipe will be replaced with a 42” Class III concrete reinforced pipe. The design has attempted to maximize coverage and separation where possible. However, due to the increase in pipe size, there will be an area close to the existing splitter box that will have a minimum of 1.0’ of cover and 0.5’ horizontal separation distance. We ask that the city waive the minimum coverage and minimum horizontal separation distance. The proposed 42” pipe will replace the existing 24” pipe that runs under an existing ditch that collects and conveys water to the pond. An attempt to meet coverage requirements or relocate inlets would impact several drainage areas, the existing playfields, and overall conveyance of the storm network serving the northern pond making it unfeasible. We are submitting a waiver for the Environmental Inventory Resource (ERI) form. LISD has invested in a Phase I and Phase II environmental assessment and any subsequent investigations requested by the city since the inception of Grandview Hills Elementary. All documents have been submitted to the city for review and approval. The findings of these environmental documents have been incorporated into designs that have been done thereafter (the agricultural barn in 2020 and the current improvements being proposed). An Environmental Resource Inventory form would be an additional cost that would impact 13 SP-88-0052CX(R4) - LISD ES No. 19 Grandview Hills Ancillary Building Project; District 105 of 43 schedule and, ultimately, feasibility. All relevant information can be gathered from previously approved documents that was submitted to the city in earlier permitting processes. Additionally, please note that the submitted plan set has an additional cover sheet with information related to revision 4. This was done at the request of the City to avoid cluttering the existing cover sheet with more information, making it more accessible reviewers.

EV 20 – Current Status: Cleared • U0: The staging areas and concrete washouts should be in a location that is free of trees. SEDIMENT CAPTURE EV 21 – Current Status: Cleared • U0: Item number 4 of the ECM Appendix P-4 sequence of construction requires rough grading ponds to 100% capacity prior to site clearing / demo activities. This is necessary so that the rough graded pond(s) can provide sedimentation control during construction activities. In the comment response letter, please confirm that the ponds will indeed be rough graded to 100% capacity prior to site clearing / demo activities. If this is infeasible, the sequence of construction notes provided on the plan set must be edited and other erosion / sedimentation control techniques will be necessary (i.e., more silt fence / TFD / mulch socks, construction staging, etc). EV 22 – Current Status: Pending • U1: A rough-graded pond is not allowed to discharge directly. It must have a way to remove sediment before discharging the water. The skimmer takes sediment-free water from the pond surface and sends it out the pond outlet. If I am not understanding exactly what is proposed for the ponds, please explain in the comment response, or contact me for a quick meeting. • U0: Clarify how the ponds will be dewatered during construction. If a sump pump will be used, show it on the plan and provide a detail. Clearly show how the outlet system will be 13 SP-88-0052CX(R4) - LISD ES No. 19 Grandview Hills Ancillary Building Project; District 1022 of 43 Project Name: LISD ES No. 19 Grandview Hills Ancillary Building Project Address: 12024 VISTA PARKE DR File Number: SP-88-0052CX(R4) protected from erosion.

Per ECM 1.6.7.5.C, the following apply to biofiltration vegetation: • Approved plants can be found at: https://www.austintexas.gov/department/grow- green/plant-guide • No one species should comprise more than 20% of the total area of the basin; a minimum of 5 species must be planted. • Vegetation may comprise shrubs, perennials, bunchgrasses, succulents, groundcovers or turf. • Annuals are not permitted. • Small trees are do not count towards the minimum species requirement. • The proposed vegetation must be diverse, appropriately distributed, and spaced according to the mature size of the particular plants. • Plants referenced in ECM Tables 1.6.7.C-2 and 1.6.7.C-3 are not allowed. Provide a planting plan for the biofiltration pond that complies with the above requirements. LANDSCAPE REQUIREMENTS The Landscape Plan should be compliant with Exhibit A of the LISD Agreement. The small print is illegible in the uploaded document. However, it is clear that there are requirements for street yard, parking lot trees, irrigation, and plants or berms along the edges of a water quality pond. This review looked at these items. PLAN GRAPHICS EV 25 – Current Status: Cleared • U0: Correct the scale bar on the landscape plan sheets. PARKING LOT EV 26 – Current Status: Cleared • U0: Explain why no parking trees are provided for the east parking lot. If this is for busses, trees are still required. It appears that existing trees could be preserved in the parking medians. I would encourage placement of the medians to maximize preservation of the large trees and clusters of trees, even if that results in some parking spaces that are more than 50 feet from a tree. For example, one or parts of the clusters indicated below could be preserved in a large island. That would replace a roughly equivalent area of the currently proposed islands. 13 SP-88-0052CX(R4) - LISD ES No. 19 Grandview Hills Ancillary Building Project; District 1023 of 43 Project Name: LISD ES No. 19 Grandview Hills Ancillary Building Project Address: 12024 VISTA PARKE DR File Number: SP-88-0052CX(R4) FEES [LDC 25-1-82, 25-7-65, 25-8-234] EV 27 – Current Status: Pending • U1: Pending • U0: Payment of the site plan environmental inspection fee is required prior to permit/site plan approval.

Fire hydrant locations. For non-sprinkled buildings AFD requires a minimum of 1 hydrant within 400ft of all portions of exterior walls and for sprinkled buildings AFD requires a minimum of 1 hydrant within 500ft of all portions of exterior walls. For either case, non-sprinkled or sprinkled buildings, all secondary hydrants necessary to meet the minimum fire flow for the building are required to be within 500ft of all portions of exterior walls. Provide a plan at a standard scale the shows the location of the hydrants necessary to meet this requirement and the required fire flow, based on not pulling more than 1250gpm out of a single hydrant per City of Austin Fire Protection Criteria Manual Fire Protection Rules. NOTE: The distances are measured as approved hose lay distance at the ground level and shall be measured around any obstructions. Fences and walls less than 4ft in height are usually not considered obstructions. The distance shall not be measured under or through the building. With respect to hydrants, roadways, driveways and buildings AFD Standard Operating Procedure (SOP) is to lay water supply hose lines to reduce the risk of damage to the water supply hose lines during firefighting operations, so hose lines will not obstruct traffic unnecessarily on major or the primary roadways in the area, or prevent access to the site by other fire or emergency apparatus or prevent access to the building during firefighting operations. Therefore, AFD does not lay water supply hose lines across major or primary roadways in the area and hydrants on the other side of a major or primary roadway in the area from a site cannot be used to meet this requirement. 13 SP-88-0052CX(R4) - LISD ES No. 19 Grandview Hills Ancillary Building Project; District 1029 of 43 Project Name: LISD ES No. 19 Grandview Hills Ancillary Building Project Address: 12024 VISTA PARKE DR File Number: SP-88-0052CX(R4) Reference: 2021 IFC 507.5.1 as amended by the City of Austin.

New and modified structures will be required to comply with the Ignition-Resistant (IR) Construction requirements of the 2015 International Wildland-Urban Interface (IWUIC) (or most current edition adopted at the time of building permit application) and amendments. The code and local amendments will be referenced together as the "WUIC" and may be found here: https://www.austintexas.gov/department/wildland-urban-interface-code Do not apply WUIC Section 603, no tree mitigation will be done for WUI compliance. Defensible space cannot be provided to reduce hazard or change WUI Proximity. Structures and materials not requiring a building permit shall demonstrate compliance with Ignition-Resistant Construction requirements on the Site Plan drawing set. Specific materials must be identified on the plans so that ignition-resistance can be verified at plan review. Separate comments to be generated for such items in this review. Related building permit application plans and details for structures located within the site shall demonstrate compliance with the WUIC regulations including for Ignition-Resistant Construction based on proximity to the wildland.

Was there an amendment to the PDA? I will keep looking because I’m sure it was approved for the previous three revisions… U1: comment cleared. Per 25-2-602 Uses permitted in a research and development (R&D) district are established by the zoning ordinance establishing the district. Not seeing any use limitations in the ordinance or ‘zoning site plan’ in the zoning files, we can proceed as is. Please add related cases to the coversheet: C14R-87-159(HC), C14-00-2055 It appears that REVISION 1-2 & 3 are revised sheets of the old plan set and REVISION 4 is SP2 where the added sheets start. Are any sheets in the older plans being revised or replaced? The revision table on sheet 94 says 1-94 are revised but there are no redlines on those sheets. For clarity, please void any unused sheets and any revised sheets should have redlines. You don’t have to keep all of the old plan sheets in this R4 plan set—just the sheets relevant to the new project. Let me know if you have questions. U1: comment partially cleared—please keep the old coversheet at a minimum. Otherwise it’s a new site plan. You can include it as the 2nd sheet in the set as reference only. So it would be R: 1, A: 94-175. SP3 Please update submittal date to 9/4/24. U1: comment cleared. SP5 Correct zoning and case number in site plan release block. Block should be on coversheet only. U1: comment partially cleared—please correct landscape sheets. Is there any increase to building coverage? Doesn’t appear so. SP6 U1: comment cleared. SP7 Please add the (R4) to case number on right hand side of all sheets. U1: comment partially cleared—please correct sheets 146-175. SP8 Lines are missing from legend on sheet 104. U1: comment cleared. SP9 This note on the new coversheet doesn’t seem to match the new site plan sheet which says total IC is 10.67 acres: 13 SP-88-0052CX(R4) - LISD ES No. 19 Grandview Hills Ancillary Building Project; District 1039 of 43 Project Name: LISD ES No. 19 Grandview Hills Ancillary Building Project Address: 12024 VISTA PARKE DR File Number: SP-88-0052CX(R4) U1: comment cleared. SP10 You might consider changing the project title on the plans: LISD ES No. 19 Grandview Hills Ancillary Building Project. Since this is just parking no buildings. I think this title is confused with the building site plan that was withdrawn. U1: comment cleared. SP11 please correct typo in sheet 146 title. Please note sheets 146-167 aren’t needed in site plan review so those won’t be stamped, in case changes are made in building plan review. SP12 hill country roadway—per 25-5-142 this needs to go to land use commission. Once all design- related comments are cleared we can schedule for commission. Also, what is the LOC within the P zoning? If its over an acre it will need to go to land use commission.
