Preliminary Plat -
1. All utility and drainage easements must be 20' in width.
2. Common area should be provided on Lots 1 & 19, Block D to contain the off-street parking.
Right now it is on private property.
3. A 20' drainage easement should be provided across the north edge of Lot IX, Block A.
4. Corrmaon area designations do not match the site plan.
5. Provide an exact tie down on the rear of Lots 9-56, Block A and Lots 2X & 7X, Block A for
the "variable width utility easement".
Preliminary Paving Plan -
1. All access to and from Lake Vista Drive needs to be coordinated with the City o£ Lewisville,
as it is a Lewisville owned and maintained street.
2. Coordinate the 4' sidewalk along Lake Vista Dr. with the City o£Lewisville.
Preliminary Drainage Plan -
1. You need permission from City of Lewisville to tie into their storm sewer line in their street
(Lake Vista Drive). Also, permission must be obtained to discharge surface flow into their
street.
2. We need a letter for our file from the City of Lewisville to the developer stating that
permission is granted to use storm sewer lines and drain to the street, and to cut the street to
access those storm sewer lines. Repair of Lake Vista Drive will need to be done in
accordance with City of Lewisville standards.
Additional comments may be forthcoming during the full engineering review.

Preliminary Water & Sewer Plan Sheet-
1. The 8" waterline may not be adequate to serve a property with this density as far as fire flow
requirements are concerned.
General Note -
1. Verify the location and elevation of the water & sewer stub-outs to make sure they are able to
serve the property.
