11/19/2008 PETER MCLAUGHLIN LANDSCAPE REVIEW Approv-Cond By the way some of the landscape planters within the vehicle use area are dimensioned (from the outside of the planter areas) it is unclear that the minimum width and minimum square footage requirements are met. An unpaved area, which is a minimum of thirty-four (34) square feet in area and four (4) feet in width, must be provided for each canopy tree. Provide a detail which dimensions the minimum inside (unpaved) width and length of the smaller types of planter areas and add the square footage (min. 34 square feet) of the planter areas to the details.

ACTIVITY NUMBER: D08-0030

SUMMARY: The Holiday Inn Express revised Development Plan was reviewed by Engineering. The package included the revised Development Plan for the Holiday Inn Express, the revised drainage report, a geotechnical report, landscape plans, and response letters. Development Services Department Engineering Division does not recommend approval of the Development Plan at this time. The drainage report was reviewed for Development Plan purposes only.

DEVELOPMENT PLAN COMMENTS:
1) DS Sec.10-02.14.2.6: For clarification on detail section C-C, a stockpile area is indicated per the geotechnical report along the north side of the project. Include the stockpile height on the plans and revise topography accordingly, and show height of stockpile on detail section B.
2) DS Sec.2-05.2.4.H: Address the following drainage comments on the Development Plan:
a) Revise design of channel detail section C-C to reflect change of grades at stockpile.
b) DS Sec.2-03.2.4.L.7: Clarify by providing sections and details to address conveyance and erosion protection for flows exiting at concentration point northeast of the proposed building pad that cross the water easement.
c) DS Sec.2-05.3.2.A: A provision for water harvest area was provided along front of Hotel. Ponding is not accepted so close to buildings without meeting geotechnical engineering setback recommendations. Provide geotechnical recommendation for setback for proposed water harvesting area at the south side of proposed hotel.
d) Provide drainage report calculation for north channel.
3) DS Sec.2-05.2.4.H.4, DS Sec.2-05.3.1.H: Provide more general spot elevations on sheet 1 for clarification of grading concept that follows proposed drainage scheme. All drainage improvement areas should have conceptual grading spot elevations to meet minimum standards.
4) DS Sec.3-01.5.1.A.1: Assure sight visibility triangles are accurately depicted on Landscape plans and match development plan, and that the SVT along Commerce Court for south adjacent parcel is depicted, and Landscape Plans are revised. Trees may be located within existing and future sight visibility triangles only if clear of leaves and branches to a height of at least six feet above grade upon installation.
5) DS Sec.11-.01.9.2, DS Sec.10-02.2.3.1.5.G, DS Sec.2-05.2.4.H.5, DS Sec.2-05.2.4.P: Provide minimum setback at south and east property lines adjacent to Parcel 137-27-989A to reflect sufficient area for proposed building foundation construction and required grading setback. Otherwise provide construction access easement for offsite construction activity. Since a building is proposed downstream of the adjacent Parcel 137-27-989A, provide written permission from the appropriate property owner(s) of Parcel 137-27-989A for the proposed offsite improvements. City of Tucson can not approve off-site improvements that are proposed without authorization from the offsite parcel. Provide construction easements, authorization letters, and cross access easement documentation for Parcels 137-27-9870 and 137-27-989A; submit documentation (include parking agreement with a copy of the lease agreement with Parcel 137-27-989A) for the offsite improvement.

Resubmittal is required. Submit the revised Development Plan addressing all of the comments. Include the revised drainage report, the revised Development Plan, soils report, other documentation, and response letter thoroughly explaining each comment. If you have questions or would like to set up a meeting, call me at 837-4934.
