Hi Paul
As we discussed, on my visit to the property at 19489 Manning Trl, The driveway
would meet the fire department needs with the improvements we discussed
during my site visit.
A recap of some of the items that we talked about is;
1. The entire length of the driveway would need to have trees and brush cleared
to a width of 12 feet.
2. All curves would need to accommodate a 40 foot fire truck
3. All driving surfaces need to be 9 feet wide, currently appears to be sufficient.
4. There will need to be a turnaround installed or improved within close proximity
to the home as we discussed on location.
5. The driveway located in the marsh area will need to be raised with gravel &
rock to improve year round drivability.
If you have any questions or comments please feel free to contact me.
Sincerely
Mike Hinz
Scandia fire Chief
