| 10/17/2018 | ROBERT SHERRY | PLUMBING-COMMERCIAL | REVIEW | Reqs Change | Verify the need for backwater valves at the Northeast building. Assuming each building sewer serves the building drain for one suite, it appears that four of the suites have unneeded backwater valves and four other suites require backwater valves but are not identified as such. Where the finished floor elevation is less than 12 inches above the elevation of the next upstream manhole in the public sewer or private sewer collection system, a backwater valve shall be installed in the building drain or branch of the building drain serving that floor. Floors discharging from above that reference point shall not discharge through the backwater valve. Indicate which lots will require the installation of a backwater valve. Reference: Section 715.1, IPC 2012, as amended by the City of Tucson. |
| 10/17/2018 | JOHN VAN WINKLE | ENGINEERING | REVIEW | Reqs Change | DP18-0229 1) Provide curb along E Minorka Rd Av per PAG standard detail 209 2) Per City of Tucson (COT) Technical Standards Manual (TSM) section 10-01.4.1. Provide a minimum 5' wide sidewalk along E Minorka Rd. Sidewalk to meet Pima Association of Governments (PAG) standard detail 200. 3) Adjust placement of proposed trash enclosure such that no portions of the trash enclosure, including the swing gates and concrete service pad/ramp extend into the right of way 4) Show on plans that proposed central drive aisle meets minimum turning radius requirements for service vehicles such as fire or delivery vehicles. Reference figure 9 in TSM section 8-01.9.0 5) Project site lies with a critical basin. Update the drainage report and grading plan as needed to reflect the detention/retention requirements for a critical basin. A 15% reduction in the existing 2,10 and 100 year peak discharges along with 100% retention of the difference between pre and post developed conditions for a 5 year event. Reference COT Stormwater Detention/Retention Manual. 6) If basins are required per comment 5, Per City of Tucson Stormwater Detention/Retention Manual section 3.4.2 provide a grade control marker for each proposed basin. On the plans please also provide the coordinates of the grade control markers so that they can be easily located in the future. Reference COT Standards Manual for Drainage Design and Floodplain Management, include all applicable drainage maintenance responsibility notes found in section 14.3 7) Sheet4, Keynote 4. Provide connections details at both ends of the proposed Storm Drain. A Depth and Slope profile view for the proposed installation 8) Show how the proposed plan is in compliance with COT Unified Development Code (UDC) section 7.6.6.C. Particularly the grading of the vehicular use areas should be in such a manner that runoff is directed into landscaped areas. Curb cuts should be provided at optimal locations to allow runoff to enter landscaped areas. Available landscape area should be depressed up to 6" to maximize water harvesting 9) Provide top/bottom spot grades for all proposed water harvesting areas to ensure that a 6" ponding depth is maintained throughout. For instance the rectangular water harvesting area to the north, provide spot grades in each corner to show that a minimum depth is maintained 10) Sheet 6 details M and N. Revise detail so that the invert of the CMU's turn on their side is at or just below grade. Currently there would be about an inch of ponded water behind the CMU before water flows out.
