The City of Tucson General Plan and the Design Guidelines Manual address the importance of development that uses colors of the natural environment which include a variety of blended shades such as blues, yellows, oranges, greens, purples and reds. Applying a variety of these colors to this RCP would be consistent with the variety of colors surrounding the area. Please visit the Urban Planning and Design’s website link to view The Sonoran Desert Color Palette for Building Exteriors”: http://www.ci.tucson.az.us/planning/sonorandesertcolors.pdf, Please make a note on the plat that no two homes with the same façade or color scheme shall be placed next to one another.

Staff concedes general note 25 concerning facades and color schemes has been added to the tentative plat.

The Design Guidelines Manual states that side and rear building facades should be built with attention to architectural character and detail comparable to the front façade, particularly if rear and side facades are visible from streets or adjacent properties. Enhancement can include design treatments such a pop outs, color variation, etc. Please submit elevations illustrating how this requirement will be satisfied for the units abutting Tucson Blvd., and Bilby Road.

The elevations as submitted did not include a front façade and only provided a single color scheme. Please provide color schemes and building elevations for the front, sides, and rear façades

06/30/2006 ELIZABETH EBERBACH ENGINEERING REVIEW Denied TO: Patricia Gehlen; CDRC Coordinator
SUBJECT: Tres Pueblos II Subdivision Tentative Plat 2nd re-submittal Engineering Review
REVIEWER: Elizabeth Eberbach
ACTIVITY NUMBER: S05-134

SUMMARY: The revised Tentative Plat, revised Drainage Report, Landscape documents, and response letter were reviewed by Engineering. Development Services Department Engineering Division does not recommend approval at this time. The Drainage Report was reviewed for Tentative Plat purposes only.

DRAINAGE REPORT COMMENTS:
1) City of Tucson Development Standards (DS) Section No.2-03.2.4.L: Address the following remaining comments for the Drainage Report. In drainage report, provide/revise cross sections for stormwater pipes:
a) To show sufficient cover over pipes crossing from basin 6 to west channel area, and WSEL below road structure, show WSEL and provide minimum distance dimensioning between top of any water and sewer utility pipes and bottom of stormwater pipe, as well as minimum dimension between top of stormwater pipe and bottom of pavement. Provide elevations for inverts of the pipes.
b) Provide calculation and show invert elevations for pipe between Basin 3 and Basin 2 with relation to bottom of basins.
2) Revise street section calculations to DS Sec.10-02 page 8.06: Table 8.1: In Drainage Report, revise worksheets for roadway capacities to reflect a roadway Manning's coefficient of .020 for the maximum value for asphalt when cars are present, per this section of the standards. (0.016 is not accepted)
3) Revise one of the Section 2 details on the right side of Figure 5 Proposed Drainage Map. The spillway from Basin 3 appears to be a secondary basin in the form of a trench rather than a weir. Explain/show how trench allows for outfall, clarify downstream grades / elevations. Show positive grade from outlet through Study Area to wash.

TENTATIVE PLAT COMMENTS:
1) Tucson Code Sec. 29-15(b)(1): Paved pathways, two potential scuppers, trails, and underground and overground basin channel outlets are indicated within the W.A.S.H. Study Area. These improvements will need to be clearly depicted on the Tentative Plat with the minimal proposed disturbance to the W.A.S.H. Study Area, as justified in the W.A.S.H. Ordinance Report for this project. Since the plat indicates proposed disturbance within the 50-ft study area, as stated previously, the W.A.S.H. submittal will be referred to City of Tucson Stormwater Advisory Committee (SAC) for review. Address all conditions of approval from review T05SA00358 prior to resubmittal. Also, provide details for the outlets on the Tentative Plat for stormwater outlets for basins 3 and 4 and west channel.
2) DS Sec.10-02.1.5.1: From recent correspondence from Pima County Regional Flood Control District and the City of Tucson Attorney's office, the 80' drainage easement is now the City of Tucson's maintenance responsibility. Address the following:
a) Revise notations on plan view and statements within the Drainage Report to reflect correct maintenance responsibility.
b) Provide documentation from TDOT accepting SRP in City maintained drainageway.
3) DS Sec.10-02.1.5.1: Address the following trail comments:
a) If the existing maintenance road / future trail & access area lies within the existing drainage easement, provide a letter from the TDOT regarding their authorization of proposed design for the proposed trail and its maintenance within the drainage easement. Otherwise, provide a trail location that does not overlap the maintenance access road. Provide correspondence regarding acceptance of design.
b) The trail is proposed to be built over access road. Provide a cross section showing that the crossings shall be traversable by motorized vehicle and pedestrians. Show that maintenance vehicles access is not obstructed.
4) DS Sec.10-01.III.3.5.1.3.a, 10-02.14.2.6, 2-03.2.4.K: The soils report shall include minimum distance from foundations to drainage swales.
5) DS Sec.2-03.2.4.K: Regarding the conceptual grading design for the project, address the following comments:
a) Clarify / provide cross sections for the following areas for clarification of conceptual grading:
i) Provide approximately three additional cross sections using existing grades and elevations at various locations along the wash depicting existing slope of wash, top of bank, elevated maintenance road, trail, and remaining study area and rear of a proposed lot or through a basin. One section shall include outlet channel / weir near Basin 3 per revised drainage report.
ii) Provide existing elevation sections for the north side of the project to include a lot pad elevation near lots 16 and 139 through the basins and outlet channels, with existing and proposed grades, slopes, property line, setbacks, and to the adjacent wash. Add / revise Detail K is to depict existing elevations with proposed grades for both locations.
iii) Check proposed PAD elevations for lots near wash side of development: lots 140 - 150. There is a slope indicator depicting fill along north edge of these lots, whereas, these lots appear low and indicate potential for stormwater acceptance from Common Area "A-1".
b) To assure the tentative plat lot layout provides for sufficient horizontal area for slope run outs, swales, and other parameters, and also for clarification of proposed flow conditions on these RCP lots, revise Lot Grading Detail on sheet 3 and revise Typical Lot Setbacks detail on sheet 4, that shows direction of drainage around proposed lots and explains the following:
i) Clarify discrepancy in minimum sideyard dimension shown on these two details; one is dimensioned at 5' and the other at 3'. The minimum sideyard setback condition needs to show that sufficient space is provided for swale and other amenities.
ii) Show/clarify area for utility pads / mechanical equipment or A/C unit locations, if it is located along the side yards.
iii) Show general / typical high point relative elevation to other side of lot or to the street, grade break locations, as well as minimum flow grades around building pads.
iv) Show any building setbacks to swales, slope setbacks for screen walls, minimum side and rear building setbacks, per geotechnical report and drainage report.
v) On sheet 4, 3-ft minimum sideyard dimensions are shown. These setbacks shall match geotechnical recommendations for positive drainage away from structures. Dimensioned distance of 3-ft does not appear to be sufficient at sideyard. Provide typical lot grading details to show that there is sufficient area for drainage swales, mechanical equipment, A/C units, slope setbacks for screen walls, slope run-outs, and general access. The Typical Lot Setbacks detail on sheet 4 shall be revised to accommodate proposed structures, drainage, grading, and geotechnical constraints.
6) DS Sec.2-03.2.2.D.1.a& b: On planview sheets, label public streets, or add note stating that all streets are public or clarify otherwise.
7) DS Sec.10-02.2.3.1.5: Cross section E shall match the geotechnical report for slope stability. Slopes steeper than 1.5:1(H:V) shall be reinforced per geotechnical report. Slopes between 2:1(H:V) and 1.5:1(H:V) shall be grouted rip rap or wire tied riprap per geotechnical report. Revise channel section to match geotechnical report.
8) DS Sec.3-01.5.1.4, 3-01.6.2.A: If A.A.S.H.T.O. SVT's are used for landscape vegetation placement, revise general note 20 on sheet 1. It may be necessary to provide Landscaping consultant with A.A.S.H.T.O. guidance for the comment below.

LANDSCAPE PLAN COMMENTS:
1) DS Sec.3-01.5.1.4, 3-01.6.2.A: The tentative plat will be denied until sight visibility is provided. In order to accommodate for landscape requirements without jeopardizing safety issues, placement of vegetation higher than 30" will be accepted outside of the AASHTO sight visibility triangle. The AASHTO triangle has a 15' stem side instead of the standard City of Tucson SVT 20' stem side length. List heights of the vegetation shown within these SVT's in response letter. For safety reasons, no vegetation that obstructs visibility 30" to 72" shall be permitted within an AASHTO SVT. Revise plans accordingly. Submit separate response letter addressing this comment.

Submit revised W.A.S.H. submittal, revised Drainage Report, revised Tentative Plat, revised Landscape documents, landscape response letter, drainage report response letter, tentative plat response letter, and any other supporting documentation such as the TDOT letter. The tentative plat will be denied until sight visibility is provided, and all comments are addressed. The next submittal should address all the above items. If you have questions or would like to set up a meeting, call me at 791-5550, extension 2204.
