I have reviewed the comments and conferred with Owners of the referenced property. At the direction of

Attach: Revised Final Drawing Package
In the Review Memo on the Final Plat submittal dated September 01, 2022, there three comments.
Consider the following responses to those comments and questions.
• As per Resolution 2022-07, adopted April 6, 2022, new development is required to follow standards
for the installation of fiber conduit and distribution boxes. Location of conduit and distribution boxes
need to be identified and shown on the plans.
The Owner met with city staff on September 27, 2022 to discuss the requirements for installation of
broadband conduit and distribution boxes. At that meeting, it was determined that the Applicant was
required to install those infrastructure elements on the roads that will be dedicated to the City on the
side of the street fronting the project. Therefore, the conduit and distribution boxes will be installed on
the east side of Smith Farm Road, the west side of Prairie View Drive, and the north side of 2000 South
per the Rexburg Engineering Standards.
An additional master plan sheet for private utilities featuring the fiber conduit and distribution boxes
has been inserted into the Overall Master Plan Drawing Package as Sheet C-MP-07 and into the Phase
I Construction Drawings as Sheet C-MP-07.
• Sight triangle requirements must be met.
The sight triangles in question appear to those associated with each of the four entrances to the Pebble
Creek development. The Landscape Master Plan, Sheet C-MP-06 in both the Overall Master Plans and
the Phase I Construction Drawings have been revised to remove the trees shown near the two entrances
off Smith Farm Road and the two entrances off Prairie View Drive.
• Asphalt Width must be 19.5 feet.
The design of 2000 South reflects the City standard for a street with 39 feet of asphalt, 19.5 feet on each
side of the centerline. The road was designed to widen the existing road to the requisite width. The
Hardscape Master Plan, Sheet C-MP-03, has been revised to depict the dimensions of the existing
asphalt from the centerline to the sawcut line and for the new asphalt from the sawcut line to the lip of
the gutter which summed equate to 19.5 feet.. This was the intent in the previous submittal although the
dimensions were not shown.
