The term does not apply. 2) Revise the tentative plat to eliminate disturbance of the scenic route buffer area. Per LUC 2.8.2.4. "A buffer area thirty (30) feet wide, adjacent to the MS&R right-of-way line, is to be preserved and maintained in its natural state." 3) A revised native plant preservation plan is required for the entire site. The previously approved plan included lots 1-5. The site is still subject to the minimum requirements based on the original inventory. 4) Revise the landscape and native plant preservation plans to include limits of grading. DS 2-15..3.4.A.1, DS 2-07.2.2.B. 5) Revise the plans to provide landscaping per DS 2-06.7.0 which states "Within the required buffer area, indigenous plant material is to remain. If any disturbance occurs during construction or prior to permit application, the buffer area is to be revegetated with native plants indigenous to the site and the area reconstructed to look as natural as possible". Identify existing vegetation to remain per DS 2-07.2.2.A.1.e. and show any additions required to restore the buffer. 6) Revise the landscape plan to provide canopy trees in conformance with LUC 3.7.2.3.A.1. 7) Revise the plans to meet the sight visiblity standards of DS 3-01.5.0. Large shrubs should be removed from sight visibility triangles. 8) Include references to previous reviews and the current case number to the lower right corner of all plans. 9) Provide screening for the site per LUC Table 3.7.2-I. 10) This project is subject to the provisions of the Scenic Corridor Zone.

The proposed plans as submitted omit the Houghton Greenway. The segment of the Greenway that corresponds with the western (Houghton) edge of the subject project needs to be properly integrated into the plans, and constructed by the developer. The existing paved path and landscaping on Houghton Rd does not meet the City/County Divided Urban Pathway Standard for the Houghton Greenway. The Houghton Greenway shall be constructed to the City/County Divided Urban Pathway Standard, which includes a minimum 12' paved path (construction standard is 2" of asphalt over 4" of compacted AB). The paved path shall be located directly adjacent to the eastern boundary of the future right of way. The entire greenway corridor shall be naturally landscaped with native plants and include irrigation. Decomposed granite shall not be used as a ground cover within the greenway without the approval of the Parks and Recreation Department. Shade trees shall be installed a minimum of every 30 ft along the paths. A public non-motorized trail easement that coincides with the scenic corridor landscape buffer shall be dedicated. Greenway details are available from the Parks and Recreation Department. Glenn Hicks Parks and Recreation 791-4873 ext. 215 Glenn.Hicks@tucsonaz.gov |
| 09/30/2004 | CRAIG GROSS | PIMA COUNTY | WASTEWATER | Denied | September 24, 2004 TO: Kent Delph, P.E., Delph Engineering, Inc. THRU: FROM: ____________________________________ representing the Pima County Departments of Wastewater Management and Environmental Quality SUBJECT: Ace Commons, Lots 1-5 & Common Area A - Submittal S04-115 The proposed sewer collection lines to serve the above-referenced project have been reviewed on behalf of the Pima County Department of Environmental Quality (PDEQ) and the Pima County Wastewater Management Department (PCWMD). This review letter may contain comments pertaining to the concerns of either Department. The following comments are offered for your use. This project will be tributary to the Roger Road Wastewater Treatment Facility via the Southeast Interceptor. Obtain a letter from the PCWMD Planning Services, written within the past 90 days, stating that treatment and conveyance system capacity for the project is available, and provide a copy of that letter to this office. PCWWM Planning Services may be contacted regarding this matter at 520-740-6500, The development plan / tentative plat for this project cannot be approved until a copy of this letter has been received by this office. The owner this property built approximately 675' of qualifying off-site public sewer line under sewer plan number, G-2003-076, that will cause all five of these lots qualify for the Participating sewer connection fee rate. All Sheets: Add the development plan / tentative plat case number, S04-115, to the title block of each sheet. This number should be shown larger or bolder than any cross reference numbers. No wastewater review fees will be charged for sheets where this is the only required revision. Sheet 1: Revise Wastewater Note 4 to read: THE ON-SITE SANITARY SEWERS WILL BE PRIVATE AND WILL BE CONSTRUCTED, OPERATED AND MAINTAINED ON A PRIVATE BASIS, AND IN ACCORDANCE WITH AN APPROVED OPERATION AND MAINTENANCE PLAN, IF REQUIRED. THE LOCATION AND METHOD OF CONNECTION TO AN EXISTING PUBLIC SANITARY SEWER IS SUBJECT TO REVIEW AND APPROVAL BY THE PIMA COUNTY WASTEWATER MANAGEMENT DEPARTMENT. Sheet 1: Add a Wastewater Note that states: A PROPERTY OWNERS' ASSOCIATION WILL BE FORMED TO ACCEPT RESPONSIBILITY AND LIABILITY FOR CONSTRUCTION, MAINTENANCE, OPERATION AND CONTROL OF ALL PRIVATE SEWERS. If no property owners' association will be formed to care for the common elements of this subdivision, please contact me for further direction. Sheet 2: The symbol for Keynote 8 (which references the private portion of G-2003-076) is pointing to a section of G-2003-076 that I believe is public. This office doesn't have a copy of the sewer plan available at this time, however, so I was unable to confirm this. Please provide a copy of the as-built drawings for G-2003-076 with the next submittal for our use, and revise the tentative plat / advise this office as necessary. Sheet 2: Is the 8" private sewer line that runs from the manhole at the southwest corner of the detention basin east to the northwest corner of the ACE Hardware Building, and then south to Lot 5, existing or proposed? Show the new private sewers differently than the existing private sewers, so that they can be readily told apart. Sheet 2: Show the design data for any new 6" or 8" private sewer lines Sheet 2: Clarify the location of the Building Connection Sewer (BCS) line(s) for the ACE Hardware. Two BCS lines appear to have been shown to this building, one near the northwest corner of the building and one near the southwest corner of this building. The one near the southwest corner of the building appears to connect to a contour line, rather than the building, however. Revise / advise as necessary. Sheet 2: Label the BCS lines from the ACE Hardware with their size and the letters, BCS. Sheet 2: Sewer service needs to be provided to Lots 3, 4 & 5. Until the requested information about the existing sewers is provided, no additional comments can be made. We will require a revised set of bluelines, and a response letter, addressing these comments. Additional comments may be made during the review of these documents. County Ordinance 2003-29 went into effect on April 11, 2003. This ordinance requires that a wastewater review fee be paid for each submittal of the development plan / tentative plat. The fee for the first submittal is $166 plus $50 per sheet. For the second submittal, the review fee is $50 per sheet. For all subsequent submittals, the review fee is $39 per sheet. The next submittal of this project will be the second (2nd) submittal. A check for the review fee of this submittal in the amount of $100.00 (made out to PIMA COUNTY TREASURER ) must accompany the revised set of bluelines and response letter. If the number of sheets changes, please adjust the review fee accordingly. If you wish to discuss the above comments, please contact me at the phone number provided above, under my signature.
