05/13/2019 JOHN VAN WINKLE ENGINEERING REVIEW Reqs Change DP19-0084

1) Show on plans the future and existing ROW site visibility triangles at N Centennial Dr and St Mary's Rd and also the drive on the east side of the development and St Mary's Rd
2) Sheet 12. The N-S running sidewalk on the west side of the parking lot will only be 3' wide after 2.5' of vehicle overhang from the adjacent parking spaces. Increase sidewalk width or adjust parking spaces with wheel stops, such that a minimum 4' wide sidewalk clear width is maintained
3) Sheet 6 Details A,B and C. The minimum clear height from the lowest sign to grade should be 84". Per City of Tucson (COT) Technical Standards Manual (TSM) section 7-01.4.3. The bollard detail seems to be a vehicle barrier detail. It is not clear if the accessible signs will be placed ontop of a 4" diameter pipe filled with concrete. Adjust as needed so that proper ground clearance is shown and if needed provide a new pipe support detail
4) Accessible sign placement for accessible parking spaces interferes with the 2.5' vehicle overhang beyond the wheel stops. Adjust placement of wheel stops as needed
5) Add note or provide a detail showing that all curb access ramps, on or around the site, will be updated to PAG standard 207 and be in compliance with ICC A117. Including the use of detectable warnings
6) Sheet 8. Where the ADA accessible pathway turns east to connect to the n-s running sidewalk, it appears that a curb access ramp is needed. Please clarify and update as needed
7) Provide top/bottom spot grades for all proposed water harvesting areas to show that an effective ponding depth is maintained, or provide a separate section detail. Note that the grades should take into account any proposed landscape ground cover
