COMMENT: Label the easements listed on the site plan and the paving and grading plan with the purpose of the easement, electrical, water etc. 2-01.3.8.C - The following information regarding existing private or public right-of-way adjacent to or within the site shall be provided: the name, right-of-way width, recordation data, type and dimensioned width of paving, curbs, curb cuts, and sidewalks. COMMENT: Label the recordation information for the adjacent streets, whether by Map and Plat, Road Map or other recordation method. 2-01.3.8.D - The following information regarding existing utilities shall be provided: the location and size of water wells, water pumping plants, water reservoirs, water lines, fire hydrants, sanitary and storm sewers, including the pipe diameter and the invert and rim elevations of all manholes and cleanouts; the Pima County Wastewater Management Department (PCWMD) reference number; locations of gas lines, electric and telephone lines, poles, and communications cables, on-ground junction boxes, and street lights. If water mains and sewers are not located on or adjacent to the tract, indicate the direction, distance to, and sizes of those nearest the property. Identifying the locations of all utilities and service equipment immediately adjacent to the project is especially important in situations where pedestrian and vehicular access and circulation or landscaping can be in conflict. By knowing the location of the existing utilities, design of the project can take those elements into consideration and can help avoid expensive and time-consuming relocation of utilities, major redesign, or requests to vary regulations after commencement of construction. COMMENT: The Booster Station is considered a second principal use and must be designed to meet Land Use code requirements and applicable development standards. In addition the zoning information of the booster station must be listed under the zoning information text block on sheet 2. Applicable requirements such as but not limited to include the use, lot size (lease area required and provided), development designator, setbacks, parking, etc. are to be listed under the zoning information text block for this principal use. Additional comments may be forthcoming on this item based on the response and information added to the plan. 2-01.3.9 - Information on Proposed Development. The following information on the proposed project shall be shown on the drawing or added as notes. 2-01.3.9.B - Identify each block or lot by number within the subdivision boundary and include the approximate square footage of each, or a note may be provided stating that all lots comply with the minimum lot size requirements. COMMENT: The easement boundary for the booster facility must be clearly defined with legible line-work and distance and bearing. (See attached copies of the RF drawings Real Estate as reference. 2-01.3.9.F - All existing zoning classifications on and adjacent to the project (including across any adjacent right-of-way) shall be indicated on the drawing with zoning boundaries clearly defined. If the property is being rezoned, use those boundaries and classifications. The basis for this requirement is that some zoning requirements on a project are based on the zoning classification of adjacent property. Also, in some instances, each zone has to be taken into consideration on property that is split by two (2) or more zoning classifications, as each may have different requirements. COMMENT: Revise the zoning classification along the south side of the project site to NR-2. 2-01.3.9.H - Proposed traffic circulation: 2-01.3.9.H.1 - Proposed traffic circulation will be designed in accordance with Street Development Standard 3-01.0, to include streets, intersections, street names, right-of-way widths, curve radii of centerlines and curb returns, and proposed improvements, such as pavement, curbs, access points (driveways), handicap ramps, and sidewalks. Street improvements, such as sidewalks, curbs, pavement, and handicap ramps, do not need to be drawn on the plan if such information is provided on typical street cross sections. COMMENT: A parallel parking lane on the street is seven (7) feet in width when used with a vertical curb and is measured from the face of the curb, DS Section 3-01.2.4.A. Revise the site plan to correctly depict the on-street parking lane. The building setbacks will also have to be revised based on the seven (7) foot parking lane. 2-01.3.9.H.3 - Indicate fire circulation, including accessibility and vehicle maneuverability. COMMENT: The maneuverability in and out of the dumpster locations has not been clearly demonstrated. See additional comments on this item by the engineering plans reviewer. 2-01.3.9.H.4 - Indicate if existing streets are public or private; provide street names, widths, curbs, sidewalks, and utility locations, all fully dimensioned.

COMMENT: As noted in the comment above, it appears that maneuverability has not been completely demonstrated on the site plan. More specifically the area in question is adjacent to Building "I". The turning radiuses appear very tight for the Refuse trucks and Fire trucks. See additional comments by the Engineering and Fire reviewers. A few of the radiuses for the planters may have to be designed at a greater radius to allow for the maneuverability to occur safely. 2-01.3.9.H.5.a - Show all motor vehicle off-street parking spaces provided, fully dimensioned. As a note, provide calculations on the number of spaces required (include the ratio used) and the number provided, including the number of spaces required and provided for the physically disabled. The drawing should indicate parking space locations for the physically disabled. A typical parking space detail shall be provided for both standard parking spaces and those for the physically disabled. For information on parking requirements for the physically disabled, refer to adopted building and accessibility codes of the City of Tucson. Design criteria for parking spaces and access are located in Development Standard 3-05.0. COMMENT: Revise the parking calculations text block as follows. Add as notes, the number of vehicle parking spaces required and the number of spaces provided. Remove the note that states 63 additional spaces have been provided. The number of vehicle parking spaces required is based on the number of bedrooms per each unit. If all the units are 4 bedrooms each, the required number of vehicle parking spaces is correct at 2.5 per unit for a total of 50 spaces. The actual amount provided is 69 including 2 H.C. spaces. 2-01.3.9.H.5.d - Show bicycle parking facilities fully dimensioned. For specifics, refer to Development Standard 2-09.0. Provide, as a note, calculations for Class I and Class II bicycle spaces required and provided. COMMENT: The bicycle parking requirements have been listed incorrectly. Bicycle parking requirements for a multi-family development are as follows, Short Term spaces required is based on .10 spaces per bedroom, long term spaces are based on .5 spaces per bedroom. Revise the calculations to list the number of short and long term spaces require and provided based on the LUC bicycle paring ratio listed above. See the LUC Division 3, section 3.3.8 bicycle parking table. For general design and location criteria see the LUC Division 3, section 3.3.9.2 and 3.3.9.3 respectively. Revise the site plan to demonstrate compliance with the design and location criteria. Short term bicycle parking must be evenly distributed among the dwelling units to comply with the fifty foot distance to entrance of the buildings. 2-01.3.9.K - Identify and provide dimensions, approximate areas in square footage, and purposes of any lots proposed for dedication (such as open spaces, recreation areas, or natural areas) or for reservation for a public use (such as public parks, water facilities, or school sites). COMMENT: As noted above in comment above, the water booster is a principal use that needs to be identified in the zoning information text block. 2-01.3.9.M - A conceptual grading plan is required on projects with significant topographic conditions. The DSD Engineering Administrator or designee will determine the need for such a plan. COMMENT: The grading plan is reviewed concurrently with the site plan and will be approved as an overall approval of the development package. The site plan and grading plan sheets are not sealed by the same registrant and if the site plan is changed due to reviewer comments, ensure that the remaining sheets are revised to match the base site plan. 2-01.3.9.O - All applicable building setback lines, such as erosion hazard, floodplain detention/retention basins, and zoning, including sight visibility triangles, will be shown. COMMENT: The building setbacks must be revised based on the seven (7) foot travel lane. revise the setback notes under the setbacks text block. The SVT's must also be revised based on the seven (7) foot travel lane. 2-01.3.9.Q - Provide the square footage and the height of each commercial, industrial, or business structure and the specific use proposed within the footprint of the building(s). COMMENT: The zoning information for the booster station must be listed under the zoning information which includes the actual use area. It appears that a portion of the lease or easement area for the booster station is proposed for a detention basin. Provide acknowledgement from the Water Department that they have approved the proposal. 2-01.3.9.V - For gang mailboxes indicate location to assure there are no conflicts with other requirements, such as pedestrian accessibility, utilities, and landscaping.

| 08/23/2013 | LAITH ALSHAMI | ENGINEERING | REVIEW | Denied | Laith Alshami, Engineering and Floodplain Review, 09/04/2013, SUBJECT: Lee Village Square DP13-00149, T14S, R13E, SECTION 1 RECEIVED: Development Package and Drainage Report on August 09, 2013 The subject submittal has been reviewed and it can not be approved at this time. Address the following comments before review can continue. Prepare a detailed response that explains the revisions that were made and references the exact location in the Drainage Report and on the Development Package where the revisions were made: Drainage Report: 1. Discuss the post development onsite drainage scheme in more details and clarify what drainage structures are needed to accomplish the drainage scheme. 2. Provide the design calculations for all proposed drainage structures including sidewalk scuppers, erosion control structures, and all proposed drainage structures. 3. Provide a drainage exhibit that shows clearly and labels all existing and proposed drainage related information including scuppers, ground and water surface elevations, ponding elevations and limits, drainage structures, water harvesting areas, retention basins, slopes and slope protection, drainage arrows, dimensions, materials, etc. 4. Explain in the text the building roof drainage direction and explain if sidewalk scuppers will be required. Show the roof drainage direction and provide the scuppers design calculations if proposed. 5. Determine the minimum finished floor elevations for the proposed structure based on the onsite drainage. Rate the PAAL's to determine the 100-year runoff water surface elevations. 6. The proposed drainage scheme shall maintain the existing drainage patterns. Address this issue in the report in more details. 7. Provide a geotechnical report that determines the required building setback from the ponding water in the retention and water harvesting basins. Verify that the building is set back in accordance with the geotechnical report recommendations. 8. The geotechnical report shall also address retention basins percolation rates and determine if bleeding pipes are needed. Additionally, the report shall address slope treatment and stabilization requirements if applicable. 9. Address water harvesting requirements in more details and demonstrate how roof and site drainage will be directed to maximize water harvesting. 10. According to Section 14.3 of the "Standard Manual for Drainage Design and Floodplain Management In Tucson, Arizona", the proposed retention basin requires maintenance access ramp that shall be wide enough to accommodate vehicular access. The minimum width should be 15' and the ramp slope should not exceed 15 percent. Please be advised that maintenance ramps should be designed in such a way that does not allow inadvertent access to vehicles. Verify that the maintenance ramps will not reduce the required size of the basins. Smaller access ramps or the elimination of the ramp might be considered based on the size of the basin. 11. According to Section 3.3.5 "Low-Flow Channels" of the Stormwater Detention/Retention Manual the proposed basins floors shall be sloped to provide positive drainage. The section recommends a minimum of 0.5% floor slope and 0.2% low flow concrete channel slope. Please be advised that based on the City's experience with similar projects, 0.5% slope was difficult to construct and maintain which resulted in nuisance ponding in the basins. Show the provided positive drainage on the drainage exhibit. 12. The retention basin may require security barriers. Check Section 4.3 of the Stormwater Detention/Retention Manual for additional information. Development Package: 1. The title block shall be provided in the lower right quadrant of each sheet (A.M.2-06.3.4). The title block shouls also meet the requirements of A.M. 2-06.4.2. 2.

Provide, on the first sheet, a legend that describes all symbols used on the drawing (A.M. 2-06.3.10). 4. Provide the primary property owner and developer information as required by A.M. 2-06.4.1. 5. Provide all applicable Zoning and Land Use Notes (A.M. 2-06.4.7.A). 6. Provide all applicable Drainage Notes (A.M. 2-06.4.7.B). 7. Provide all applicable Streets and Roads Notes (A.M. 2-06.4.7.C). 8. Add the following grading notes, which are intended to protect the owner/developer and the engineer of record: a. The approved Grading Plan/Development Package is the only acceptable construction plan onsite. The Contractor may not use any other plans, such as the approved Tentative Plat and/or Development Plan, for construction purposes. The Contractor may ask the Planning and Development Services Inspector to consult with the other approved plans for additional information or details that might not be included on the approved grading plan but needed for completion of work. b. The contractor shall remove the fine materials from the bottom of the detention/retention basin and scarify the basin bottom once the construction activities are completed in order to remove any fine material build up caused by construction and to restore soil percolation. Install BMP's at the basin inlet(s) to prevent the fines from entering the basin c. Any proposed engineering work to be done below grade (i.e. toe-downs, cutoff walls, drainage pipes/structures, etc.) shall not be back filled until Development Services Inspector inspects the work and approves it. d. The contractor is not permitted to make an autonomous decision to carry out construction field changes without prior written approval from the Engineer of Record and the City of Tucson Development Services Department. e.

Depending on the results of the drainage report floodplain study, show, if applicable, the floodplain information, including the location of the 100-year flood limits for all flows of 100 cfs or more with 100-year water surface elevation (A.M. 2-06.4.8.I). 14. Provide all missing curbs radii (A.M. 2-06.4.9.H). 15. Include a general note that specifies the PAAL's and parking spaces dimensions are taken from the gutter line (A.M. 2-06.4.9.H.5.). 16. It appears that the location of the trash enclosure, on the west side of the property, is in conflict with the existing building access to the garage. Additionally, it appears that accessing the trash enclosure, by the garbage truck, might be difficult. Revise as necessary (A.M. 2-06.4.9.H.3) and (A.M. 2-06.4.9.T). 17. Based on the proposed parking lot layout, access to Building "I" garage appears to be difficult. Revise the layout to allow easy access to the garage (A.M. 2-06.4.9.H.3). 18. Provide the proposed basins side slopes on the plan and on the details (A.M. 2-06.4.9.N). 19. Show retention and waterharvesting basins 100-year ponding limits with water surface elevations. Show the water depth on Detail 5A/C-2.0 (A.M. 2-06.4.9.N.1). 20. Show proposed buildings roof drains and sidewalk scuppers if the roof drains discharge onto sidewalks or walkways (A.M. 2-06.4.9.N.3). 21. Show required retention and waterharvesting basins setback lines based on the geotechnical report recommendations.
