Box 326 110 Polk Avenue Cape Canaveral, FL 32920 RE: DANIEL CORPORATION / CAPE CANAVERAL HOTEL DEVELOPMENT PLANS CANAVERAL PORT AUTHORITY CONCURRENCY REVIEW Dear Mr. Dickey, This letter is being sent in response to an email received from Jean Abi-Aoun, P.E., Vice President for Florida Engineering Group (FEG), Orlando, FL, dated November 28, 2016, regarding plans for the above referenced hotel development as proposed on a certain parcel adjacent to Canaveral Port Authority (CPA) lands at the southern terminus of Columbia Road. The purpose, as presented in the email, was to seek authorization to upsize and tie into an existing 6" PVC potable water main that terminates near the intersection of Columbia and Atlantis. As indicated in the reply email dated November 29, 2016, the Canaveral Port Authority will require additional information to complete a necessary review of proposed traffic and utility impacts. Due to the proposed increase in vehicular traffic and the propensity for the development to produce pedestrian traffic accessing the Port, certain improvements to the Columbia Road cross section will be evaluated. These improvements may include but not be limited to 1) a dedicated turn lane and associated signal modifications at the intersection of Columbia Road and George King Boulevard, 2) pedestrian walk(s) and signalized cross walks at the intersection of Columbia Road and George King Boulevard 3) improvements to Columbia Road from the subject parcel to George King Boulevard and 4) an emergency signal at the driveway entrance on Columbia Road from the existing Canaveral Fire Rescue (CFR) Fire Station #52. If deemed necessary, the cost of these improvements will be the responsibility of the developer. The attached email record requests additional information from the designer so that we may proceed with the necessary review. The developer and Engineer of Record (EoR) should be reminded that the proposed site is adjacent to the City of Cape Canaveral / Canaveral Port Authority joint CFR training facility. As discussed in the email reply to the EoR, while in operation, this facility conducts live -fire training exercises and produces wafting, wind -driven smoke. For your records, I am transmitting the review comments emailed to the project Engineer of Record for the above referenced development on Tuesday, November 29, 2016. 1 am requesting that the City of Cape Canaveral consider this request for additional information / comment letter for the proposed development in your site plan review proceedings.

P.5. To: ,lean Abl-- Cc: Daniel Esden; Todd Morley; Craig Langle; Mert Musser Subject: RE: Cape Canaveral Hotel - Water Line Extension Date: Tuesday, November 29, 2016 10:35:00 AM Mr. Abi-Aoun, Thank you for your inquiry. Per your email below, I understand that a proposed hotel development wishes to tie in to utility infrastructure on or through CPA -owned property. I am aware that the subject parcel on which the hotel development is proposed currently holds access rights to Port property; however, to my knowledge this access does not currently extend rights for utility service. The design engineer of record shall submit the following documents in order to review the traffic impacts for a driveway connection permit: • Overall project site plan • Written narrative of the development Detailed design plans of the proposed driveway connection and all improvements contemplated on Port property ! If stormwater facilities are planned on Port -owned lands; proof of SJRWMD or FDEP 'Concurrence is required Trip generation report inclusive of narrative Based on the nature of this development, the requirement for the following "off site" improvements will be evaluated by CPA. If required, the design and implementation of such improvements will be the responsibility of the developer: • Improvement / widening of Columbia Drive from the point of connection to George King Blvd. inclusive of a dedicated turn lane where required and a pedestrian walkway • Resulting modifications to the signalized intersection at Columbia Drive and George King Blvd • Emergency only signalization at the existing CFR fire station on Columbia Drive The developer should be aware that the adjacent CFR facility contains an active vessel and vertical structure fire -fighting trainer facility. When activated, the live fire from this facility will produce wafting smoke that, depending on prevailing winds, may not be contained within the property limits. The on -Port potable water supply network is currently being evaluated with respect to the port -wide Master plan update which has, in -turn, identified several significant projects involving the need for potable water supply. At this time, the use of Port -constructed potable water capacity is not authorized. Please advise if you should have further questions. Regards, Bill Bill Crowe, P.E.

Cc: Daniel Esden; Todd Morley Subject: Cape Canaveral Hotel - Water Line Extension I hope all is well. My name is Jean Abi-Aoun and I am the civil engineer working on the Cape Canaveral Hotel to be developed by the Daniel Corporation located at the south end of Columbia Road across from the fire Station as shown on the enclosed aerial layout exhibit. As we continue to develop our design work, it appears that the existing 6 inch water main along Columbia Road south of Atlantis Road, as shown on the City of Cocoa Water Map, will have to be upsized to a 12 inch water main to serve the potable and fire flow requirements for the proposed hotel. Bill, the proposed water main will tie-in to the existing 12 inch water main at Atlantis Road and extend to the hotel site. This work should have minimum effects on the surrounding area given it will be completed at the west side of a dead end street. As such, we wanted to inform the Port Authority of such endeavor. Please let me know if you have any questions at this stage or if we need to further coordinate these efforts with you or just submit to the City of Cocoa and City of Cape Canaveral for review of the offsite water main work and approval. I look forward to hearing from you. I copied Todd Morley from the City of Cape Canaveral on this email. Best Regards Jean Abi-Aoun, P.E., Vice President, LEED® AP FES 5127 S.
