Please keep in mind that at this point we have <br />only finished the first submittal in the MOT design process and significant changes could be <br />made to these plans in future submissions. <br />1. Attached to this letter are 11"x17" plan and profile sheets showing the existing and <br />proposed location of the curb and sidewalks. Also, please refer to the digital pictures, <br />provided in our March 12'' early coordination packet, for further detail of the existing <br />location of curb and sidewalks. <br />2. We will not be adding decorative features to any of the sidewalks. All of the sidewalks <br />will be replaced with plain concrete to match the existing material. <br />3. Seven small trees along the front of the South Bend Clinic located within the existing <br />property lines will be removed due to the proposed construction. The replanting of these <br />trees will be the decision of the property owner and will be negotiated during the R/W <br />phase of the project. The three small trees located within the public R/W on the south <br />side of LaSalle Street (west of Eddy Street) will not be replanted. Sodding will be applied <br />wherever the existing grass is disturbed. We intend to limit disturbance to existing trees <br />to a minimum. See the attached highlighted plans for tentative tree removal locations. <br />4. At this stage in the project we do not foresee the removal of 1028 East Colfax or any <br />other buildings within the East Washington Historic District. We have narrowed the <br />proposed travel lanes to avoid relocations. Please refer to the attached plans for existing <br />and proposed R/W locations. <br />By copy of this letter, we are requesting the consulting parties also comment on this additional <br />information. <br />550 Union Street, Mishawaka, IN 46544 <br />TEL (574) 259-9976 FAX (574) 259-9982 <br />www.troyergroup.com <br />torecycled paper <br />
