Site Visit Follow-up
Dear Mr. Rose:
A second site visit was conducted on February 25, 2005 at which time I became aware that
damage has occurred to the storm drain system and some of the other underground services in
your development. Please do not proceed with any work activities (particularly grading or
paving) until you can assess the damage in our right-of-way and easements.
Additionally, prior to any paving activity taking place, verification will be required that the lime
content of the subgrade meets the specifications in our Subdivision Ordinance. It was observed
in the field that lime was placed deeper and wider than necessary.
I urge you to contact this office at your earliest opportunity to set up a meeting with
representatives of the Engineering Dept. to discuss the apparent problems and their timely
resolution.
Sincerely, ,
Construction Inspector

RE: Riverchase Townhomes
Site Visit
Dear Mr. Rose:
A site visit was conducted on February 17, 2005 at 10:15 a.m. I observed the lime crew in the
process of shaping the roadway, preparing for the application of lime to the subgrade. There was
no visible means of verifying the proposed subgrade elevations onsite. As you are well aware by
referring to the approved Construction Plans, there are critical grade areas inside the proposed
roadway bed, i.e. the storm drain crossing, the sanitary sewer main and sanitary sewer services.
My concem has been and is still the verification of subgrade elevations over those services te
prevent any damage from occurring.
From my site visit today, it would appear there is a good possibility that damage may have
occurred in some storm drain locations and possibly to some of the sanitary sewer facilities on
the east end of the project. My recommendation, once again, is that you verify all the horizontal
and vertical controls on the project, and verify the extent of damages, if any before proceeding to
paving operations. Please call me if there is any question about how to perform the needed
verifications.
