RE: Site Improvement Plan
Camp Oakdale – Public Works Equipment Storage Garage
176 Meeting House Lane
CLA-6314S
Administrative Approval Opinion
Ms. Radford:
CLA Engineers, Inc. has prepared the attached revised site improvement plans for a proposed
equipment storage garage on behalf of the Town Public Works Department to be located at Camp
Oakdale, 176 Meeting house Lane as shown on the site plans.
Modifications to the approved plan include the following:
1. Reduction in the building size from 105’x45’ to 80’x40’.
2. Gravel surfacing has been extended on the south side of the building.
3. Removal of the proposed retaining wall. Due to the smaller building size, the site can be
suitably graded to a 4:1 vegetated slope that can be maintained by the Town Staff.
4. Elimination of the concrete apron at the front of the building.
5. General Note 6 and E&S Note 3 have been edited per the conditions of approval.
We believe the site and building modifications are minor and are well within the confines of the
Camp Oakdale facility. Additionally, the smaller building size reduces the amount of impervious
surface from the approved plans. In our opinion, the scope of the changes would be suitable for
an Administrative approval. Feel free to call me at our office or email me at
khaubert@claengineers.com with any questions or if you require additional information.
Very truly yours,
CLA Engineers, Inc.
