Construction items to be completed:
1. Install detectable warnings at the sidewalk ramp near the stop sign.
2. Complete installation of all wheel stops.
3. Complete construction of mitered end section and erosion control at the pond outfall.
4. Re-grade pond to match the approved plans, which show the pond bottom as 20-feet wide
and approximately 120-feet long, with 5:1 side slopes. The pond measures smaller than this
with steeper side slopes.
5. Repair the sidewalk ramp leading from the building to the parking area. The detectable
warnings were not formed properly and need to be replaced. The use of detectable warning
mats is recommended instead of cast-in-place concrete.
6. The cleanout at the northwest corner of the parking area needs to be brought up to the
asphalt grade.
7. Replace the sidewalk along the row of handicapped parking spaces. The use of detectable
warnings is not appropriate here and should be removed. The detectable warnings that are
installed do not meet standards and would have to be replaced even if this were an
appropriate application of detectable warnings.
8. Cleanout the stormwater structure and pipe.
9. The sidewalk between the west side of the civic center and the new parking area has a low
spot that is holding water, both from irrigation runoff and from the nearby building downspout.
This problem needs to be addressed to eliminate the standing water in the sidewalk.
Administrative items to be completed:
1. Civil Engineer of Record's Certification Letter to the City
2. Complete set of record drawings accepted (hard copy and digital file in pdf format)
3. Letter from Civil Engineer to SJRWMD Certifying Improvements (SJRWMD standard
certification form)
