Default Site plan

The same contractor who created the site disaster two years ago while building a house is back to build a second one. Here's the "site plan" that he submitted to me for approval.

Looks like he's using some sort of CAD package. Very professional.

That looks like a standard form from the county building department and the builder sketched the site plan. What is the problem?

And it's even titled "SITE SKETCH," not "SITE ENGINEERING CAD DRAWING."

Sadly, I AM NOT a big deal.

No actual lot lines. No designation for disturbed area. There's a culvert that drains onto the site at the front-right corner, where he's planning a cut bank. No provision for topsoil storage/ reuse. Trees over 6" have to be designated/ protected outside of the disturbed area. The Town requires at least 10% to be left in place.

The County has recently added 2' contours to its GIS system, which is a great resource for site planning. I gave the contractor a screen shot of the site to help him with drainage/ grading planning.
