Page S-2
1.Consideration should be given to extending the 24 foot wide asphalt drive to Big Bay Road in order to
funnel traffic to a signalized intersection. This would eliminate the need for left turn movements going
west on Corinth Road from proposed egress.
2.If road to be extended, right out only onto Corinth Road should be considered. Update to site plan to
include traffic controls and signage would be warranted.
3.Existing wastewater system associated with SFD fronting on Corinth Road to be decommissioned.
Please clarify method of decommissioning on plan.
Additional comments:
1.TDE comments attached.
2.Although the parcel is relatively flat and erosion is not of great concern, the current cover on the parcel
is optimum with regards to soil stabilization. Clearing for marketing purposes appears unwarranted.
