TGI FRIDAY’S -PAINTER’S
CROSSING (
Representing this applicant, Donald T.

The loading and unloading area has been labeled. With regard to Item 4 in Kelly Engineers’ November 8, 2005 review letter, the legend on the plan will be corrected. Detailed flow information for the Knight’s Bridge wastewater treatment plant will be submitted to Kelly Engineers next week in order to determine sewage capacity.

A report has been provided concluding that roof area will be controlled as if it were prior meadow condition. A colored landscape plan has been provided.
