23. D.S. 2-05.2.4.D.I Per General Note 12 the proposed building height is 40', this said the building setback of 25' shown along Valencia Road is incorrect. Per LUC 3.2.6.5.B this setback should be 40' measured from the back of future curb not property line.

24. D.S. 2-05.2.4.D.I Per General Note 12 the proposed building height is 40', this said the building setback of 48' shown along Valley Indian Agency Connection Road is incorrect. Per LUC 3.2.6.5.B this setback should be 40' measured from the back of curb or edge of travel lane not property line.

25. D.S. 2-05.2.4.D.I The setback line shown along the west property line is incorrect. For the setback required adjacent to C-2 City of Tucson zoned property is "0". The setback required adjacent to SH Pima County zoned property is 20'-0".

26. D.S. 2-05.2.4.D.K Zoning looks at loading spaces the same as a parking space, this said the crosswalk shown southwest of Lot 2's proposed building may not be located between the loading space and the PAAL the provides access to the space, see D.S. 2-08.4.1.F. Zoning recommends that you relocate the crosswalk to the west side of the north/south PAAL and then cross back towards the building.

27. D.S. 2-05.2.4.D.K Zoning recommends that the sidewalk shown along the north side of Lot 5's proposed building be extended out to the ROW along Valley Indian Agency Connection Road.

28. D.S. 2-05.2.4.D.K There is an access ramp shown near the southeast corner of Lot 4's propose building. Please clarify where a pedestrian will go once they exit the sidewalk.

30. D.S. 2-05.2.4.D.M Zoning acknowledges that a type of use has been provided for each proposed building under the "PARKING AND BICYCLE DATA. Either revise the uses to reflect a use in the LUC of under the "FLOOR AREA CALCULATION" provide a use adjacent to each building that reflects a use in the LUC i.e. Food Service, General Merchandise Sales, Financial Service etc.

31. D.S. 2-05.2.4.D.N Provide the height and dimension for all building footprints on the plan.

32. D.S. 2-05.2.4.D.O The "OFF-STREET LOADING DATA" for Buildings 3, 4 &5 is not correct. Per LUC Section 3.4.5.6 Building 3 requires one (1) 10' x 18' is required. Per LUC Section 3.4.5.3 Building 4 requires four (4) and Building 5 requires two (2). Revise the calculation and show the required loading spaces on the plan.

33. D.S. 2-05.2.4.D.P The parking calculation is not correct. If you are going to use the mixed use calculation, per LUC Section 3.3.5.1 Land Uses Sharing Common Elements. For a mixed use development, the total number of required spaces is ninety (90) percent of the sum of the amount required for each separate principal use in Sec. 3.3.4. This said since this site is working as one site zoning recommends that you use LUC Section 3.3.5.6.A for your parking calculation.

34. D.S. 2-05.2.4.D.P Provide a wheel stop for the southern most handicapped vehicle parking spaces located at the proposed building on Lot 2.

35. D.S. 2-05.2.4.D.P There appears that there are five (5) parking spaces located north of the proposed building on Lot 3 and only four (4) spaces are indicated, please clarify.

36. D.S. 2-05.2.4.D.P Across the PAAL located to the west of the proposed building on Lot 2 there is a call out for two (2) parking spaces when it appears that three (3) are provided, please clarify.

37. D.S. 2-05.2.4.D.P There is a call out for thirty (30) parking spaces located directly north of the proposed building located on Lot 4 but there are only twenty-nine (29) spaces shown, please clarify.

38. D.S. 2-05.2.4.D.Q Please review the revised D.S. 2-09.0 and revise the Class 2 bicycle detail as needed. This detail should include materials for lighting, number of bicycles it supports; and the location and type of directional signage if required. The dimensions that are provided on the detail do not meet the requires in revised D.S. 2-09.5

39. D.S. 2-05.2.4.D.Q It appears that Construction Notes 13 & 14 have been reversed on the plan. Construction Notes 13 appears to point to Class 2 and Construction Notes 14 appears to point to Class 1, please clarify.

40. D.S. 2-05.2.4.D.Q Clearly identify the main entrance to all proposed structure so that zoning can verify that the requirements of D.S. 2-09.4.1 Proximity to Main Entrances are being met.

41. D.S. 2-05.2.4.D.U Once the rezoning conditions have been approved, Indicate graphically, where possible, and by notes, in all other instances, compliance with conditions of rezoning. Also provide a separate letter stating how all rezoning conditions have been met.

42. D.S. 2-05.2.4.D.V If applicable, indicate the location and type of postal service.

43. D.S. 2-05.2.4.D.W If applicable, Indicate the locations and types of proposed signs (wall, free-standing, pedestal) on the plan.

05/21/2008 JASON GREEN ENGINEERING REVIEW Denied DATE: May 21, 2008
SUBJECT: The Shops at Midvale- Tentative Plat Engineering Review
TO: Patricia Gehlen, CDRC Manager
LOCATION: 1801 W Valencia Road, T15S R13E Sec15 Ward 1
REVIEWERS: Jason Green, CFM
ACTIVITY: S08-043


SUMMARY: Engineering Division of Development Services Department has received and reviewed the submitted Tentative Plat, Drainage Report (The WLB Group, Inc., 28MAR08) and a copy of the Title Report. The Drainage Report was reviewed for Tentative Plat purposes only. The Tentative Plat is not approved at this time. The following items need to be addressed:


DRAINAGE REPORT:

1) Tucson Code Chapter 26 Sec.26-5.2.4: Revise the Drainage Report, Tentative Plat and the location of the development to show no unnecessary disturbance of the riparian 100-year floodplain. The proposed development is entirely located within the mapped 100-year floodplain per the Drainage Report and is not considered a necessary disturbance. Review and approval for the disturbance and proposed mitigation is required by the Landscaping Department prior to Tentative Plat approval.

2) DS Sec.9-06 Refer to this section for the definitions, preparation, submittal, and review procedures for development within areas that have environmental habitat, Floodplain and Erosion Hazard Area Regulations. Any disturbance of the riparian habitat will require an Environmental Resource Report (ERR) approval from DSD Landscaping prior to Tentative Plat approval.

3) Tucson Code Chapter 26 Sec.26-7.2: Provide a discussion within the Drainage Report on the required erosion hazard setback from the regulatory flows that are within the constructed drainage channel. When banks are stabilized to the level of the base flood (plus an appropriate freeboard) the setback to the structures shall be minimum 10-feet provided that the stabilization is constructed to the appropriate toedown depth. Determinations of setbacks are found in the Standards Manual for Drainage Design and Floodplain Management in Tucson, AZ.

4) DS Sec.2-03.2.4.K: Provide the Geotechnical Report that is required for this project. The soils report needs to discuss suitability and feasibility of the project and must provide specific discussion with recommendations for the proposed underground retention system, the design and use of this system will be largely based on the geotechnical report. Description of existing soil constraints for the site, structural design recommendations, and other typical geotechnical data is needed. The soil report shall provide identification / assessment of any potentially hazardous geotechnical areas. The Geotechnical Report shall specifically address all criteria listed in this section. Recommendations need to be incorporated into the Tentative Plat and Drainage Report.

5) DS Sec.3-01.4.4.F: Provide a revised Drainage Report showing scupper calculations that demonstrate that the 10-year flood flow is contained under the sidewalk at all scupper concentration points. Provide details and dimensions for the proposed scuppers that are to be used on the proposed Tentative Plat.


TENTATIVE PLAT:

6) DS Sec.9-06.2.1: All site plans, development plans, Tentative Plats, plot plans or other plans providing for approval of development within property that includes any Regulated Area as defined in Development Standard 9-06.2.2 shall identify and delineate the Regulated Areas and the Protected Riparian Area. The Regulated Areas on this site are the existing 100-year floodplain limit. Revise the Tentative Plat as necessary to clearly document the locations of the exiting 100-year floodplain limit. Show the same information (regulatory limits) on the plant inventory, landscape/mitigation plans, and future grading plan.

7) Tucson Code Sec 26-5.2.4: The proposed development can not unnecessarily alter the regulatory riparian habit that is located within the mapped 100-year regulatory floodplain that is contained on the entire property. The riparian vegetation is protected per DS 9-06.2.2.C.4. Review and approval for the disturbance and proposed mitigation is required by the Landscaping Department prior to Tentative Plat approval.

8) DS Sec.9-06.2.5.B.2: All development within the Protected Riparian Area shall be reviewed to insure that there is no unnecessary disturbance of the riparian resources. Refer to this section on Development Restrictions and revise the plans as necessary. Necessary development shall include only the crossing of riparian habitats with roadways, bikeways, paved walkways and utilities as listed below where there is no viable alternate crossing available and the crossing is necessary for the reasonable development of the property. A written explanation as to why the development is necessary shall be submitted with the appropriate plans. The Drainage Report and Tentative Plat indicate that a full build out of the property within the existing 100-year floodplain is proposed. This is not consistent with the provisions for "necessary development".

9) Tucson Code Sec 26-11: A Floodplain Use Permit (FUP) is required at the next Tentative Plat submittal for the proposed grading and alteration of the mapped regulatory 100-year floodplain. Per Chapter 26 of the Tucson Code a Floodplain Use Permit is required for any improvements within a mapped 100-year floodplain. Provide the FUP application with the resubmittal for review and approval.

10) DS Sec.2-03.2.1.D.2: Revise the project location map on Sheet to identify all major watercourses (West Branch Santa Cruz River, Santa Cruz River, Oak Tree Channel, etc) that are within the one square mile area shown.

11) DS Sec.2-03.2.1.D.4: Revise the location map to show the City's jurisdictional limits and all adjacent jurisdictions.

All PAALs, drainage channels and retention systems must have separate restrictions, a separate lot owners association or other common area that specifies responsibility and maintenance of the common used areas. Verify that CC&Rs are submitted and that they provide for maintenance responsibility for all common areas and the underground retention systems.

27) DS Sec.2-03.2.4.E: Revise the Tentative Plat to verify if the project is to be phased. Show phase lines on the drawing, if applicable.

28) DS Sec.2-03.2.4.F: Revise the Tentative Plat so that it is designed in accordance with Street Development Standard 3-01.0. The following items need to be revised or added to the proposed Tentative Plat:

a) Label the required 25-foot radii at the access points along Valencia Road (MS&R) and the required 18-foot radii for the access point along Valley Indian Agency Road. The curbs should be constructed at the edge of pavement, which must also be depicted on the Tentative Plat. Curb returns must be constructed entirely within the subject parcel. Refer to DS Sec.3-01.3.2.C and the Transportation Access Management Guidelines for street development standards. For further information contact the Tucson Department of Transportation, Jose Ortiz, P.E. at 837-6730.

b) Revise the Tentative Plat to show the correct Sight Visibility triangles (SVT), with dimensions for the access points off of Valencia Road (Arterial) and Valley Indian Agency Road (Local) and for the portion of the project that is affected by the intersection of both roadways per DS Sec.3-01.5.0. Revise the landscape plan to reflect the sight visibility triangles shown on the Tentative Plat.

c) Revise the Tentative Plat to label and dimension all proposed handicap ramps along the access drives for both roadways. Provide a detail or the Standard Improvement detail number with a referenced keynote for all locations.

d) Revise the Tentative Plat and/or the associated details to label and dimension all required street improvements for both Valencia Road and Valley Indian Agency Road. Per the adopted Mayor and Counsel policy all sidewalks along MS&R right-of-ways for arterial and collector streets require 6-foot wide sidewalks. If an existing sidewalk is already constructed along the frontage of Valencia Road and does not meet the minimum width of 6-feet provide photo documentation showing that the existing sidewalk is in good condition. If the sidewalk is missing in spots or is cracked and buckled a new 6-foot sidewalk will be required. A DSMR will be required for modifying the development standards to allow the existing sidewalk to remain and not constructing a new 6-foot sidewalk along the roadway. The DSMR must be approved prior to Tentative Plat approval. All exhibits and discussion must reflect any changes made by the approved DSMR. Provide a General Note to list the DSMR number, the Development Standard being modified along with the date of DSMR approval.

e) Revise the Tentative Plat to verify the required curbing and 5-foot wide sidewalk along the street frontage of Valley Indian Agency Road that is adjacent to the subject property. All new development shall provide 5-foot wide sidewalks along the entire length of street frontage. Refer to DS Sec.3-01 for all curb and sidewalk requirements. If sidewalks already exist along the frontage of Valley Indian Agency Road provide photo documentation showing that the existing sidewalk is in good condition. If the sidewalk is missing in spots or is cracked and buckled a new 5-foot sidewalk will be required.

29) DS Sec.2-03.2.4.F: Revise the Tentative Plat to label and dimension the required cross access agreements, with recordation information, between the proposed 5 parcels. Or provide access easements that are delineated and dedicated for such use.

30) Revise the Tentative Plat to provide dimensions for all drive through lanes (food service and financial service) shown on the plat.

31) Revise the Tentative Plat to dimension al PAAL widths within the proposed development. Verify that all PAALs meet the minimum 24-foot width requirement (or 12-foot if used for one way traffic).

32) Clarify all PAAL cross sections versus the shown slopes in plan view. The cross sections show that the majority of the PAALs are designed with inverted sections, however the drainage and percent slopes shown in plan view show that the PAAL sections should reflect super-elevated or warped sections, clarify and revise.

33) Revise cross section 6 on Sheet 4 of 5 to reflect the proposed underground retention systems. Provide the minimum depth of cover over the proposed system and provide all manufactures installation, details, and maintenance requirements for verification purposes.

34) DS Sec.2-03.2.4.H: Revise the Tentative Plat to label Valencia Road as "MS&R" and as a "Gateway Route."

35) DS Sec.2-03.2.4.J: Provide easements for all utilities with recordation information or provide the description for each utility (access, drainage structures, PAALs, gas, water, electric, etc.) in respective Common Areas, verify that the CC&Rs match the Common Area descriptions. Easements are to be dimensioned and labeled as to whether they are public or private and recordation information must be provided prior to Tentative Plat approval.

36) DS Sec.2-03.2.4.K: Either provide separately, or show a conceptual grading plan on the Tentative Plat, with the resubmittal of the Tentative Plat and Drainage Report. The conceptual grading plan is required on this project due to the proposed underground retention basin systems and the constructed drainage channels. A Geotechnical Report is required to discuss the suitability of the project site. The soils report needs to discuss suitability and feasibility of the project. Besides description of existing soil constraints for the site, structural design recommendations, pavement design section, and other typical geotechnical data is needed. The soils report shall provide identification / assessment of any potentially hazardous geotechnical areas, provide proposed recommendations for setbacks from building to drainage areas include minimum distance from foundations to drainage channels, underground retention systems, and provide infiltration test results. The geotechnical report shall specifically address all criteria listed in this section. See last sentence of this section for items 6 (c) & (d) regarding hydro-collapsing soils and 30-foot test boring for basin design. Recommendations need to be incorporated into the conceptual grading plan, Tentative Plat, and Drainage Report. The soils report needs to discuss suitability and feasibility of the project and must provide specific discussion with recommendations for the proposed underground retention system

37) DS Sec.2-03.2.4.L: Revise the Tentative Plat, in conjunction with the submitted Drainage Report, to reflect the following information. For additional information regarding drainage standards, see the City of Tucson Standards Manual for Drainage Design and Floodplain Management (10-02) or the Detention/Retention Manual (10-01).

a) Revise the Tentative Plat and Drainage Report to design the proposed drainage channels with the minimum percent longitudinal slope of 0.5%. The bottom of channel slope must be 0.5% or greater to prevent accumulation of standing water and mosquito infestation. Per the proposed design the channels are currently at 0.2% which does not meet the minimum standard.

b) Revise the Tentative Plat to clearly show the underground retention system. Provide clear details on the plat that provides design, details, manufactures specifications, and connectivity to the proposed catch basin for construction purposes.

c) Revise Detail 12/5 to clearly reference the Table of Hydraulic Structures for the construction of the lintel openings within the wall. Per the detail the lintel openings state: "length opening per plan," however the opening are only shown in the table, clarify.

d) Revise the Tentative Plat to label and dimension the proposed 26 LF of 24" SRP from the catch basin (concentration point 7). The culvert is not shown on the plan only in the table.

e) Clarify concentration point 7.1. Per the table and the Drainage Report the 18" SRP from that catch basin is proposed at 70.3 LF, however plan view shows a LF of only 69.25, clarify.

f) Clarify concentration points 1.1a, 1.1b, 1.1c and 1.2a. Per the table and Drainage Report the slope of the proposed culverts are to be set at 0.22%, however plan view shows only a 0.20% slope, clarify.

g) Revise the Tentative Plat to provide rock riprap erosion protection at the outlet to all proposed culverts. Per the Drainage Report all culvert outlets have a velocity that exceeds the 4 feet per second therefore will require erosion protection. Provide details for the rock riprap showing method of placement, size, thickness and filter fabric specifications.

h) Revise the Tentative Plat to provide flow arrows for the roofs of the proposed buildings to show concentration points and scupper locations at the pedestrian circulation. A detail for the dimension of the proposed scuppers that are used for collecting onsite roof drainage at all pedestrian sidewalk is required. Any scuppers proposed under the sidewalk will be designed and constructed to convey the 10-year flood flow. Provide a revised drainage report showing scupper calculations that demonstrate that the 10-year flood flow is contained under the sidewalk.

i) Revise the Tentative Plat to dimension all transitions that are shown on the plat. Provide a clear detail for all transitions (2:1 (H:V) to 3:1 (H:V) slopes, rock riprap to concrete headwalls, roadway transitions, etc.) for construction purposes.

38) DS Sec.2-03.2.4.M: Revise the Tentative Plat and Drainage Report to label and dimension the required erosion hazard setback from the regulatory flow within the proposed drainage channels. Clearly delineate the EHSB line on the Tentative Plat to verify building locations are outside of the required setback.

39) DS Sec.2-03.2.4.N: Revise the Tentative Plat to verify the proposed sewer rim elevations. Specifically the rim elevation for #3 shows that it is higher than the proposed finished grades for the PAAL, clarify.

40) DS Sec.10-02.14.3.2: Revise General Note # 21 on the Tentative Plat stating that, (a) the owner or owners shall be solely responsible for operation, maintenance, and liability for all drainage channels, drainage structures, and the underground stormwater retention system; (b) that the owner or owners shall have an Arizona Registered Professional Civil Engineer prepare a certified inspection report for the drainage and detention/retention facilities at lease once every 6-months, and that these regular inspection reports will be on file with the owner for review by City staff, upon written request; (c) that City staff may periodically inspect the drainage and retention/detention facilities to verify that scheduled and unscheduled maintenance activities are being performed adequately; and (d) that the owner or owners agree to reimburse the City for any and all costs associated with the maintaining of the drainage channels, drainage structures, and underground stormwater retention system, should the City find the owner or owners deficient in their obligation to adequately operate and maintain their facilities."

41) DS Sec.6-01: Refer to Environmental Services comments for all refuse containers locations and detail corrections and maneuverability for refuse vehicles. Show circulation path of collection vehicle and ensure adequate turning radii and the required minimum 14 ft x 40 ft clear approach to enclosures.

42) Due to the above comments and the possible re-design of the project not all comments have been reflected within this letter. The minor redlines and other quality control issues will be addressed after the major comments have been removed.

43) Review and approval from TDOT Permits and Codes for all improvements within the public right-of-way will be required. A right-of-way use permit application will be required prior to construction. Refer to the following links for TDOT Forms and applications:
