RE: Prattville Sketch Plan Review #180009
HomePlace DHS Residential Development @ McQueen Smith Road S.
Dear Mr. Vaughn:
The overall sketch plan for the HomePlace DHS Residential Development has been reviewed by the
required city departments with the following comments:
PLANNING DEPARTMENT:
1. What is the planned connection to sanitary sewer? Public Works requests that consideration be
given to a secondary connection at the NE end of the subdivision.
2. The original HomePlace PUD was recommended by the Planning Commission based on the
amount of greenspaces to be developed or preserved. What greenspaces /parks will be
provided in the development? Can any of these spaces be developed for use as a park? How will
they be maintained?
FIRE DEPARTMENT:
1. Although the overall layout allows for two access/egress points to the subdivision as required by
the IFC 2015 edition - Section D107, the bulk of the homes (on the east side) lack the minimum
remote distance and come back to the same street (Old Quarters Road).
2. Another observation - there is no access to the future (undeveloped area) to the north and west.
3. An option for resolving the remote access issue and to allow for connection to future expansion
is to leave a stubbed out street. One possible area for the stub street is to the SW of the proposed
detention - around Lots 52 to 54
4. The original sketch plan for the HomePlace Development provided the connection.
5. To better comply with the intent of the fire code and create a safer neighborhood, I strongly
recommend the Planning Commission maintain the concept of interconnectivity.
POLICE DEPARTMENT:
1. At this point, I do not feel McQueen Smith Road South can handle the additional traffic until it
can be four lanes or road improvements made to handle the traffic flow.
Please provide responses or plan revisions to address the comments provided. Question regarding these
comments may be directed to me by telephone or email.
Sincerely,
Joel T. Duke, AICP
