Tentative Plat Resubmittal

TRANSMITTAL DATE: November 9, 2006

DUE DATE: November 24, 2006

COMMENTS: Please resubmit revised drawings along a response letter, which states how all Zoning Review Section comments regarding the Land Use Code and Development Standards were addressed.

COMMENTS

1. The Overlay Zone case number must be noted in the lower right corner of each sheet of the tentative plat, landscape, and NPPO plans. All required elements of the SCZ (i.e. 30 foot buffer, view corridors, approved colors, etc.) and HDZ as shown on the approved Overlay Zone plan must be added to the tentative plat, along with date of approval and any conditions placed on that approval. The tentative plat may not be approved prior to Overlay Zone application approval. (LUC 2.8.2) (LUC 2.8.1) (D.S. 2-12) (D.S. 9-04)

The following comments have been made on the overlay zone review case number T06SA00242. Information is to be placed on the tentative plat.

Hillside Development Zone (HDZ) LUC Sec. 2.8.1

1. Please add the following note to the tentative plat which reads "All proposed site work will comply with Development Standard 9-01.0".
LUC 2.8.1.8.B

2. Please verify that the CC&Rs address long term maintenance of slope control measures. A copy of CC&Rs or section from CC&Rs are to be provided upon next submittal that addresses this requirement.
LUC 2.8.1.9

3. The developer/owner will be responsible for
a) surveying, staking, and inspection of the project by a certified engineer or land surveyor to determine compliance with the HDZ.
b) On-site enforcement by certifying to the City Engineer or designee that the development complies with the HDZ regulations during the period of development.

Scenic Corridor Zone (SCZ) LUC Sec. 2.8.2

1. Please add the view corridor calculations to the tentative plat. Any development that has at least two hundred (200) feet of frontage along Houghton Road will have view corridors, with a combined width of at least twenty (20) percent of that frontage, which allows vision from at least one (1) point into and through that portion of the project that lies within the SCZ from Houghton Road.
LUC 2.8.2.6.B

2. If a color or construction materials palette is proposed, add both matrix tables, which includes the proposed exterior color name, number and manufacturer, proposed roof material type and color, required screening wall materials and color, etc. It is advised to just provide a note on the tentative plat reading "Building or structure surfaces, which are visible from Houghton Road will have colors, which are, predominate within the surrounding landscape".

3. The required setback for lots 46-52 from the future right-of-way of Houghton Road is based on the proposed height of structures not to exceed twenty-four (24) feet. This requires a street setback of seventy-two (72) feet from Houghton Road. Please show and label this required setback on the tentative plat.
LUC 2.8.2.5.A

4. Please add the appropriate following notes to the tentative plat.

a) Individual SCZ case not required for each lot. This development is subject to the review and approval of the special application for the Scenic Corridor Overlay. The Special application case number is T06SA00242. The special application has been reviewed and approved, approval date (add date of overlay zone approval), without conditions.

b) Maximum height of structures will be 1/3 the distance of the structure from the future right-of-way of Houghton Road, not to exceed 24 feet.

c) No grading beyond that is necessary for siting of buildings, drives, private yards, and structural improvements. All viable vegetation with a caliper of 4 inches or greater and all saguaro cacti will be preserved or relocated on the site per the Native Plant and Preservation Ordinance.

d) Drainageways are to be maintained in their natural state.

e) All new utilities for development on private property or public right-of-way along Houghton Road will be underground. Trenching is permitted for the placement of utilities lines, if area is revegetated in accordance with Land Use Code Sec. 3.7.5.2.D

f) Building or structure surfaces, which are visible from Houghton Road will have colors, which are, predominate within the surrounding landscape. (see SCZ comment 2)

g) Fencing and freestanding walls facing Houghton Road will meet material restrictions in Land Use Code Sec. 3.7.3, Screening Requirements.

h) All areas between the MS & R right-of-way line and the existing street right-of-way that are disturbed by development shall be revegetated with native vegetation.

i) All disturbed areas on the site that are visible from Houghton Road and are not covered by permanent improvements shall be revegetated with native plants, plants from the Drought Tolerant Plant List, or a combination of both.

j) Exposed cut and fill slopes shall be no greater than 1-foot rise or fall over a 3-foot length.

5. Monument signage cannot be placed within the SCZ thirty (30) foot natural buffer. Proposed signage must meet requirements of LUC Sec. 2.8.2.10.


If you have any questions about this transmittal, please call Karol Aragonez, (520) 791-5550, ext. 1197.

SUBJECT: Escalante-Houghton
S05-114, T14S, R15E, SECTION 35

RECEIVED: Tentative Plat, Landscape Plan and Drainage Report on October 26, 2006

The subject project has been reviewed. We offer the following comments:

Drainage Report:

1. Clarify why Concentration Point B1 watershed is assumed as rural for proposed conditions. Moderate urban is a more appropriate assumption and more consistent with the other watersheds. Revise as necessary and revise all analyses, which are based on the generated 100-year runoff for Concentration Point B1 including the scupper sizing and the roadway rating.
2. The velocity at cross section D-D is too high and requires the provision of an erosion control structure. This also applies to all discharge velocities (from proposed channels, scuppers, pipes, etc.) that exceed 4 fps. Revise the report to address this issue.
3. Show on, the drainage exhibits the locations where street flows have been rated. Provide the cross sections hydraulic rating plots.

Tentative Plat:

1. Please be advised that according to 7-01.4.A, all existing onsite easement(s) shall be released/abandoned shortly after the approval of the Tentative Plat in order to reflect this information on the Final Plat. The Final Plat will not be approved until the abandonment have been processed and reflected on the Final Plat and the Title Report.
2. The sidewalk scupper information might change based on the Drainage Report Comment #1.
3. Add to General Note #39 that the unnamed wash, which is classified as "Xeroriparian Habitats" shall be preserved and fenced off for grading, even if no encroachment is proposed. Please be advised that the Grading Plan shall depict the grading limits and the fence that will separate the wash from the construction activities.
4. Please be advised that slope treatment and setback lines shall be determined in the Geotechnical Report, which shall be submitted with the Grading Plan.
5. The Drainage Report and the Tentative Plat do not address the drainage of Common Area "A" east of lots 46-52. It appears that the water will pond between the lots backyard wall and the slope.


Prepare a detailed response that explains the revisions that were made and references the exact location in the Drainage Report and on the Tentative Plat where the revisions were made.
