Religious gathering place consisting of 10,700 square feet. 1 "Site Pian" dated February 23, 9999 (received 4101199) prepared by Daniel Park and Associates. Lee N. Brennan, Public Works Director Provide information to the Planning Commission and Applicant (hereinafter referred to as "Developer") regarding City Public Works Department {PWD) standards, requirements, and conditions to be included in the design and development of the proposed religious facility. Gather information from the DeveloperlEngineer regarding the proposed development. Special Requirements Exisfing lnfrasfrucfure: The Developer shall demonstrate that all connections to existing infrastructure (i.e. streets, water, sanitary sewer, storm drain systems; natural drainage systems; etc.,} will not interfere with or provide for the degrada#ion of the existing effective level of service or operation of the infrastructure facilities, and that the existing infrastructure facilities have either adequate capacities to accommodate the flows and/or demands imposed on the existing infrastructure as the result of the connection of the proposed development's infrastructure, or will be improved by and at the expense of the Developer to accommodate the additional flows andlor demands; while maintaining or improving the existing level of service of the affected facility, as approved by (as applicable), the regulatory agency, utility owner, and/ar property owner involved. 2. Rights-of-WaY and Easements: Grant and Taylor Road are designated as secondary arterial type streets. Developer should provide dedication far expansion of the right-of-way along Grant Road to a minimum of 80-feet in width {40-feet each side of centerline}. Since the existing right-of- way width far Grant Road is 60 feet, the Ci#y will require a minimum of an additional 10-foot dedication for right-of-way along the Developer's property frontage with Grant Road. The Developer should also provide ded"ication for expansion of the right-of-way along Taylor Road to a minimum of 88-feet in width {44-feet each side of centerline). Since the exis#ing right-of-way width for Taylor Road is 60 feet, the City will require a minimum of an additional 14-foot dedication for right-of-way along the Developer's property frontage with Taylor Road. ~~6 Medford Temple, The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-Day Sainrr Site Plan Review PWD Stafj"Report April 27, 1998 Page 2 Additional right-of-way width on the proposed developments property may be required in the future in the vicinity of the intersection of Grant and Taylor Roads to accommodate the development of any needed extra turn lanes when this intersection is reconstructed to accommodate the planned development in this area. Buildings and other improvements should be set-back to accommodate this future need. The Developer should provide suitable and acceptable easements (minimum 1 ~-foot in width) far any existing public works infrastructure, or public works infrastructure required for the development, that are located outside the public rights-of-way. A separate 10-foot minimum width public utilities easement (P.U.E.) should also be dedicated by the Developer for utility installation outside the Grant and Taylor Road rights-of--way along the property's exterior frontage with these roads. 3. Traffic Study: As previously discussed with the Developer's Agent, a traffc impact study will not be required separately far this development at this time. The City is working with the Developer and other developersllandowners in the northwest portion of the City to coordinate and develop a traffic analysis and impac# study for the area based an projected development of the properties in this area. Therefore, it is the City PWD recommendation that the Developer should pay an allocated portion of the cost for preparation of this a traffic study and impact report. !t is proposed that the allocation of cast would be based on the tax lot(s) size in ratio to the total area to be developed. It is anticipated that this report will need to be completed during the master planning work associated with the upcoming development planned far the property to the north of the subject development. ~4. Improvements to Taylor Road: Taylor Road along the frontage of the subject tax lot is a rural road that does not meet City ar County urban standards. The road will need to be improved, as a minimum, to meet City standards. The Developer will be responsible for, as a minimum, all uhalf- street" improvements to Taylor Road along the proposed development's property frontage with Taylor Road, and any applicable taper or end sections. The improvements include, taut are not limited to, street section, curbs, gutters, sidewalks, bike lanes/ways, street lighting, storm drainage, and traffic control and delineation, which shall be coordinated and approved by the JC Roads and the City PWD, and designed and constructed at the expense of the Developer as part of the development of the proposed religious facility. The planned street section for Taylor Road will have acurb-to-curb width ranging from 60 #0 72 feet. The actual paved street width required will be determined by the estimated traffic flows expected for the intersection presented in the traffrc study and impact report to be completed for #his area, and the road design determined by the City PWD. Sidewalks will need to be 6-feet in width. As discussed with the Developer's Agent, and as approved by the City Administrator andlor JC Roads, the City PWD is recommending that the Developer be required to enter into a suitable deferred improvement agreement for the required road improvements along Taylor Road, and tha# the improvements are not constructed at this time. Because of the lack of a traffic master plan for the Grant/Taylor Road intersection and adjoining roads, the actual street width and possibly other infrastructure improvement items associated with the improvement of Taylor Raad are not known and cannot be effectively designed at this time. Therefore, the City PWD is recommending that the required improvements associated with Taylor Road for this development be deferred until a J ~ O Medford Temple, The Church ofJes:as Christ of Latter-I~ay Saints Site Plan 12eview PWD Stafj"12eport Apri127, 1998 Page 3 later date. If any or all of the improvements are to be deferred to a later date, then the Developer will be required to enter into a suitable deferred improvement agreement with the City andlor Jackson County for the required road improvements. 5. Improvements fo Grant Road: Grant Road along the frontage of the subject tax lot is a rural road that does not meet City or County urban standards. The road will need #o be improved, as a minimum, to meet City standards. The Developer wil! be responsible for, as a minimum, all "half- street° improvements to Grant Road along the proposed development's property frontage wi#h Grant Road, and any applicable taper or end sections. The improvements include, but are not limited to, street section, curbs, gaffers, sidewalks, bike lanes/ways, street lighting, storm drainage, and traffic control and delineation, which shall be coordinated and approved by the JC Roads and the City PWD, and designed and constructed at the expense of the Developer as part of the development of the proposed religious facility. The planned street section for Grant Road will have acurb-to-curb width ranging #rom 56 to 62 feet. The actual paved street width required will be determined by the estimated traffic flows expected for the intersection presented in the traffic study traffic study and impact report to be completed for this area, and the road design determined by the City PWD. Sidewalks wif! need to be 6-feet in width. As discussed with the Developer's Agent, and as approved by the City Administrator andlor JC Roads, the City PWD is recommending that the Developer not construct the required improvements at this time; but that the Developer be required to enter into a suitable deferred improvement agreement for the required road improvements along Grant Road {excluding some temporary street widening, curb, gutter, sidewalk, street light, storm drain improvements, and utility relocation work to be constructed from the connection to the Mitchell's Landing Subdivision to the south side of the proposed Development's driveway connection along Grant Road. Because of the lack of a traffic master plan for the Grant/Taylor Road intersection and adjoining roads, the actual street width and possibly other infrastructure improvement items associated with the improvement of Grant Road are not known and cannot be effectively designed at this time. Therefore, the City PWD is recommending that the required improvements associated with Grant Road (except those improvements noted above) be deferred until a later date. If any or all of the improvements are to be deferred to a later date, then the Developer will be required to enter into a suitable deferred improvement agreement with the City andlor Jackson County for the required road improvements. 6. Other Roadway Improvements: The Development will likely impact off-site arterial and collector roadways and intersections including, but not limited to, GrantlTaylor, TaylorlHaskell, Haskell/Pine, PinelHighway 99 and Gran#/Beaif roads and intersections. The extent of these impacts is unknown at this time, but will be quantified as a part of the pending traffic study (discussed in item 3 above). The Development will be responsible for its cost share of the improvements made to the transportation system to mitigate the impacts to the system. The cost share attributable to the impacts presented by this Development will be quantified in the traffic study. We anticipate that the Development's cost share will not exceed $66,900. This maximum amount of payment for the Development's cost share {i.e $66,900) should be due to the City at the time of building permit issuance. ff the traffic study concludes that the Developments attributable cost share for the transportation system improvements is less than the maximum payment, the balance shall be promptly refunded by the City.

Driv_er~ray Entrance: The existing western driveway entrance to Taylor Road creates an unacceptable traffic hazard for this intersection regarding ingress and egress movements out of this driveway. The Developer should be required to remove this driveway connection. 8. Erosion Control Plan: If applicable, a suitable erosion cantrol plan must be prepared and submitted to the Oregon Department of Environmental Quality (DEQ) for the construction of any improvements associated with this development. The construction plans associated with this development will not be approved by the City PWD until the City PWD receives a copy of the written approval of the erosion control plan by the DEQ. 9. Site Draina eJStorm Drain Plan: The developer shall design and implement a site drainage/storm drain plan that corrects and enhances existing site drainage for the entire property noted on the site plan. Sheet flow surface drainage from the property onto the public rights-of way, or onto neighboring properties is unacceptable. The storm drainage infrastructure will be privately operated and maintained. The storm drain systems {both on-site and within the CitylCounty right-of-ways}, shall be designed to accommoda#e the storm waterrun-off from and run-on onto the proposed development (either surface run-on or culvert or creelclditch conveyance); any future development on adjacent properties; conveyed storm drainage or surface water flow, and any flows from areas deemed by the City that will need to connect-into the proposed development's or City's rights-of-way SD System. During the design of the storm drain collection and conveyance system (SD System}, which provides for storm water run-off from and run-on onto the proposed development (either surface run-on or culvert or creek/ditch conveyance}, the Developer shall demonstrate that the storm water flows from the completion of the proposed development (and at any time prior to completion of development} do not exceed predevelopment flows; or that existing capacity, allowances, or provisions have been made (and approval of the applicable properties owners and regulatory agencies has been obtained), which accommodate any additional flow which exceed predevelopment flows. The Developer and the City PWD shall agree on the applicable run-off coefficients, curve numbers, retardance, etc., #o be used in the engineering calculations. Developer's engineer shall provide a site drainage plan with the facilities being designed, at a minimum, to accommodate a 10 year storm event. The SD system must be designed to adequately drain the 10-year storm event without surcharging or must be provided with adequate storage to prevent surcharging; and be designed to not impact existing private or public storm drainage facilities. Any private storm drain system exceeding 3-inches in diameter shall be designed to directly connect to the public storm drain system (at a manhole or curb inlet only), and shall not be designed to discharge to the street surfaces. The potential reten#ion of storm water run-off shall be coordinated with aspects of the proposed development to provide an aesthetically pleasing, efficient, non-hazardous, and low maintenance facility. If applicable, the storm water retention facilities shat! be suitably landscaped; designed to mitigate erosion and sediment and hydrocarbon deposition; and to mitigate the "attractive nuisance" hazards associated with these facilities. Catch basins, curb inlets, and area drains shall be designed for sediment and petroleum hydrocarbon retention. 10. Off Site Storm Drainage Infrastructure: As applicable, for any storm drainage infrastructure 0~~ Medford Temple, The Church of Jesus Christ oj,Gatter-Day Saints Site Plan Review PWD StafjReport .4pri127, 1998 Page 5 constructed or improved outside the City's rights-of-way or easements for drainage of surface waters from the subject development, the Developer shall provide a suitable document or documents which contain approvals far the implementation of such connection and/or improvements and which describe: ^ Who is responsible for the operation, maintenance, and repair of the infrastructure facilities #o maintain the original design parameters associated with the in#rastructure. If the City is to operate and maintain the infrastructure, the applicable funding mechanism that will be created {i.e Iocal improvement district) for the associated City expenditures; ^ How will access be afforded and maintained indefinitely to maintain and repair the infrastructure facilities; ^ That an easement or other suitable conveyance document has been granted, as necessary, to provide suitable access on private property for the inspection, maintenance, and repair work to tae performed on the infrastructure facilities. The easement shall include a statement which allows access by City personnel for inspection and maintenance purposes; and 11. Water Distribution S stem: The Development will be connecting the existing Church facility and the proposed religious facility to the City's Water System. In order to facilitate this connection, the Developer should be required #o design and construct the 12-inch-diameter extension of the mainlines of the City`s water distribution system from the end of the 12anch water line on Taylor Road (located approximately 820 feet east of the northeast property comer of the subject property), to the terminus of the City's water line near the southwest corner of the subject property. On other recent development projects, the City has or is proposing to reimburse the ©eveloper for a portion of the costs far up-sizing of water lines above the minimum water line diameter of 8 inches. The proposed water line reimbursement is only for projects where the required up-sizing was not the result of the flow demands of the development, but is the direct result of providing additional capacity for the supplemental demands that may be placed on the water distribution system caused by additional surrounding future development or existing capacity shortcomings. The reimbursement methodology for water line up-sizing includes payment of the estimated material cost differences for the 8-inch-diameter versus 12-inch-diameter pipe and appurtenances. This reimbursement methodology is very similar to the methodology used by the Medford Water Commission for this same type of water line up-sizing. The methodology involves the City staff performing a pipe material take-off and determining the quantities of pipe materials needed. City stiff will #hen obtain price quotes for the materials from two local material vendors. The staff will then average the quoted prices and develop a materials cost sheet for the 8-inch-diameter pipe and appurtenances and the 12-inch diameter pipe and appurtenances. The difference in the total materials costs obtained for the 8-inch-diameter and the ~ 2-inch-diameter water line and appurtenances would be the amount that was eligible for reimbursement to the Developer. The reimbursement can be by direct reimbursement to the developer, or by credits issued against collection of City water distribu#ion system development charges (SDC) for the proposed development. Direct reimbursement can only be accomplished if adequate funds are available in ~7~ Medford Temple, The Church of Jesus C{arist of Latter-Day Saints Site Plan .Review PGf'D StafJ"Report ~4pri127, 1998 Page 6 the City's water distribution SDC fund and the funds have been identified and approved for reimbursement to a particular development in the fiscal year in which reimbursement is requested. Any connection to the City's water system for fire protection within the Development should be of "reinforced loops design: a minimum of two connections will need to be made to the City's distribution system. The Developer will be responsible to coordinate and develop any cost sharing agreements with any identified adjacent property owners/developers (i.e. Pacifc Trend Building) for the portion of the subject water line along Taylor Raad, east of the northeast comer of the subject property. 12. Fire Profecfion and Domestic Water Service: Fire Hydrants will need to be installed along the subject property's frontage with Grant and Taylor Roads and along the extension of the water distribution line installed along Taylor Road, in accordance with City PWD standards and as approved by Fire District No. 3. The number and sizes of the water meters and service laterals to the two buildings will be jointly determined by the Developer, and the City PWD and Building Departments. Each building will require a separate service lateral and meter, in accordance with City ordinances. The costs for the installation of the service laterals and water meters will be at the expense of the Developer, with work to be performed by the City PWD. 13. Horn Creek floodplain Analyses: The proposed development should not place improvements and structures within the 100-year f{oodzone associated with Hom Creek that would raise the height of the flaodzone elevations. The developer should be required to remove the excessive vegetative growth along the banks of Hom Creek that are on the subject property. The Developer's engineer shall determine the existing base flood elevation contours; and illustrate the existing and post development boundaries of the floodplain and floodway fora 100-year "base flood" storm event associated with Hom Creek through the affected property. The construction drawings shall indicate the revised base flood elevation contours and boundaries of the floodplain and floadway expected to occur fallowing the completion of any development within the identified floodzone (also referred to as the "Area of Special Flood Hazard"}, including any affected upgradient areas. The information determined wilt also be used to determine minimum finished floor elevations for any structures that wilt be placed within the area of special flood hazard. 14. Driveways Access Roads, .and Parking Areas: The driveways, access roads, and parking and turning areas on the proposed development shoo{d be designed and positioned in a manner that accommodate the turning movements and access of an AASHT~ single unit truck and the Fire District's requirements. All driveways, access roads, and parking areas should either have asphalt or cement concrete surface, or other approved "pavedn surface. General 1. Development Plans: Developer shall submit to the City's PWD for review and approval, plans and specifications for all improvements proposed for construction or modifications within the City a'71 Medford Temple, The Church of Jesus Christ oflat~er-Day Saints Site Plan Review PWD Staff Report .4pri127, 1998 Page 8 S. Fill Placement: All fill placed in the development shall be engineered fill that is suitably placed and compacted in accordance with City PWD and Building Department standards, except for the upper 1.5-feet of fill placed outside of public rights-of-way and that does not underlie building, structures, or traveled vehicular access ways or parking areas. 7. Road/Drivewa~/Parking Areas: The Developer shall evaluate the strength of the native soils and determine the access road, parking, and driveway section designs to handle the expected toads (including fire equipment} to be traveled nn these private driveways, access roads, and parking areas. The Developer wil! need to provide the necessary section designs for PWD and Fire District 3 review. The driveways, access roads, and truck parking and turning areas nn the proposed develapment must be designed and positioned in a manner that will accommodate the turning movements and access of an AASHTO Single Unit Truck, without crossing into an opposing Zane or additional travel lane of traffic. 8. Utility Plans: The utility plans shall be drawn to scale with accurate horizontal and vertical depiction of utility lines and appurtenances (transformers, valves, etc.). 9. Area ~.ighting Plan: Need to provide and implement an adequate area lighting plan for parking and public access areas, including the driveway entrances #rom Grant and Taylor Roads. 7 D. Clear Vision Areas: Sight vision triangles, meeting the City PWD's standards, shall be maintained at the driveway en#rances and road intersections associated with the subject property. The construction drawings shall include clear vision areas (i.e, sight triangles) at driveway entrances and at the intersection of Grant and Taylor Roads designed to meet the City`s PWD requirements. 1'[. Fire Hydrants: Provide locations of existing and any new required fire hydrants. Fire Hydrants need to be connected to 8-inch-diameter and larger lines. if applicable, steamer ports at hydrants located near the building shall face the buildings. Fire hydrants shall be suitably protected from potential vehicle damage and encroachment. 12. Water System Cross_Connection Control: Developer shall comply with Oregon Health Division {OHD) and City requirements for cross connection control. A pressurized irrigation system and domestic water weps exist an the property. The Developer will be required to install the required backflow prevention assemblies directly behind the City's water meters. 13. Wafer System: Construction drawings shall include the size, type, and location of all water mains, hydrants, valves, service connection, meter, service laterals, and other appurtenance details in accordance with City PWD Standards and as required by the City PWD. 14. Storm Drain System Design: Prior to construction plan approval of the improvements for this develapment plan, the Developer's engineer shall provide the City PWD with a complete set of hydrologic and hydraulic calculations and profile plats for sizing the site storm drain system. The engineer shall use the rainfall/intensity curve obtained from the City PWD for hydrologic 0~3 Medford Temple, The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-Day Saints Site Plan Review PWD Staff Report Qpri127, 1998 Page 9 calculations, and the negotiated run-off parameters. 15. Roof/Area Drains: All structures shall have roof drains, area drains, and/or crawl spaces with positive drainage away from the building. Rao# drains shall not be directly connected to the public storm drain system. 16. Grading Plans: Grading plans should have originallexisting grades and final grades platted an the plan. Typically, existing grade contour lines are dashed and screened back, and final grade contour lines are overlaid an top of the existing grades and are in a heavier line width and solid. Contour lines should be labeled with elevations. 17. Overhead Power Lines: If applicable, coordinate efforts with Pacific Power and Light, US West, and TCI Cable, to convert any overhead electrical power, telephone, or cable #acilities within or adjoining the proposed development to underground #acilities, prior to the acceptance by the City PWD a# the public improvements associated with the proposed development. All agreements and costs associated with the conversion of these facilities from overhead to underground facilities, shat[ be by and between the utility owners and the Developer. 18. Street Section: The City's engineering staff or selected engineering consultant (at Developer's expense), shat[ evaluate the strength of the native soils and determine the minimum street section designs for Grant and Taylor Roads in accordance with the City PWD Standards. o~~
