of flood storage on this site and that erosion will not be increased
by the project.
2. Technical evidence that access point into the project off Salem
Road is no more than 2 ft. below the flood protection elevation as
required by Chap. 67.400 (a) of the Zoning Code. Flood free access
is required for residential dev.
3. A plan for access improvements is submitted which addresses the
points raised by the Co. Eng. in the attached 1/27/89 memo.
4. The landscape plan should show the exist. trees on the site that
will be saved and special effort should.be taken to retain the trees.
5. The storm shelter required for this project be designed to
meet the new FEMA.const. design standards that are now part of the
State Build. Code. The shelter must also meet the standards of the
flood fringe dist. so a true (below grade) shelter may be hard to
meet. Above grade shelters inside each unit or a freestanding
above grade.shelter should be allowed.
6. All necessary public utility extensions and needed easements are
shown on the preliminary plan.
7. All necessary permits if any, that maybe required by the DNR for
this project be acquired by the applicant.
8. The private road in this project should extend to the west propert.
line so it can connect with the private road that has been proposed
in the Salem Sound Second PUD. This would permit a secondary access
into this property which would improve traffic flow and safety by
insuring a flood free access from the west.
