08/19/2004 PATRICIA GILBERT ENGINEERING REVIEW Denied DATE: August 12, 2004
ACTIVITY NUMBER: T04OT01511
PROJECT NAME: Navajo North
PROJECT ADDRESS: 104 West Navajo
PROJECT REVIEWER: Patricia Gilbert, Engineering Associate

The following items must be revised or added to the site plan. Please include a response letter with the next submittal that states how all comments have been addressed.

RESUBMITTAL REQUIRED: SITE PLAN, DRAINAGE REPORT


1. Sidewalks must be flood free for up to the 10-yr. event. Add a note on the plan, "All roof down spouts on all structures must be routed under any adjacent sidewalk." DS 2-08.4.1.E

2. It is acknowledged that under the drainage notes reference to the project being in a floodplain. However the note states the project is in an "A" zone where base flood elevations are not determined. The project is in an "AE" Zone, where base flood elevations are determined. Revise Drainage Note number 1 to state the subject lots are in an "AE" zone.

3. This project is subject to the requirements of the City of Tucson Code, Chapter 26. Floodplain and Erosion Hazard. A completed elevation certificate by a state-registered land surveyor is required to be returned to Development Services, Engineering Section prior to final inspection and a certificate of occupancy is issued. Please note that any mechanical equipment; water heaters, air conditioning systems, coolers, etc, must be elevated one foot above the water surface elevation and certified on the same elevation certificate for the structure. This project will have four elevation certificates given that the project has four structures.

4. Show the 100-year peak water surface elevations (WSEL) on the plan. DS 2-02.2.1.A.15.

5. The datum used on the site plan and drainage report do not match. The site plan states under the basis of elevation NAVD 1988 was used. The drainage report used NGVD 1929, which results in an approximate difference of 2.3' in elevations. On sheet 2 the finish floor elevations appear to be in NGVD 1929. The datum on the drainage report and the site plan must match. Revise the site plan and/or the drainage report to be consistent. DS 2-02.2.1.23.

6. On the site plan, sheet 1, cut and fill quantities are listed. Fill quantities are 500 cubic feet. Is this correct? Typically cut and fill quantities are in cubic yards. Revise to show estimated cut and fill quantities in cubic yards. DS 2-02.2.1.A.17.

7. Add a note to the plan all finish grade elevations, drainage patterns can be found on the grading plan, sheet 3. DS 2-02.1.A.16.

8. It is acknowledged that there is a symbol in the legend for "water flow direction mark." However the direction of flow is not indicated on the site plan. Indicate direction of flow on the site plan with the symbol shown in the legend. DS 2-02.2.1.A.16

9. Show roof drainage arrows on the site plan. DS 2-02.2.1.A.16

10. Show on keynote 31 the dimensions of the sight visibility triangle. DS 2-02.2.1.A.10.

11. Does Navajo Street have curbs? If there are curbs indicate on the site plan curbs along Navajo Street. Show dimensions from street centerline to existing and/or proposed curbs, sidewalks and driveways. DS 2-02.2.1.A.21.

12. The basis of elevation is required to include the City Field Book and page number. Give the City Field Book and page number. DS 2-02.2.1.23.

13. An adequate and safe ingress/egress is required for the collection vehicle in each new project. Each service area is required to have a clear approach of fourteen feet by forty feet for the collection vehicle. Access to the current location of the solid waste enclosure entails the collection vehicle to back up into parking spaces. This is not acceptable. The maximum back up distance for a solid waste vehicle is 40'. Revise the plan to meet the requirements of Development Standard 6-01. Contact John Clark, 791-3175, ext. 1136 for assistance with the solid waste location. Proposals not meeting the requirements of DS 6-01 requires a Development Standard Modification Request (DSMR) to be processed. For information regarding the DSMR process please contact Patricia Gehlen at 791-5550, extension 1179. DS 6-01.3.1.A., DS 6-01.4.1.J.

14. A minimum distance of three feet will be provided between the back up spur and wall, screen, or other obstruction over six inches in height. The back up spur located on the west side of the PAAL only has two feet between the required 5' wall (see landscape comment number one) the curb. Revise the site plan to show three feet between the wall and the back of the spur. DS 3-05.2.2.D.

15. Stormwater must be accepted and released from developments essentially at the same locations, and with the same magnitudes, as encountered under natural or existing conditions. Because a CMU wall is required for the vehicle use area how will the wall not block the existing direction of flow and not increase the 100-year peak water surface elevation more than a tenth of a foot. Whenever walls are constructed, they must have adequate flow-through openings for accepting and releasing drainage without elevating or ponding water on the upstream side and impacting the adjacent property. Revise the plan to show the wall. Give wall opening dimensions, quantity and location. SMDDFM 12.5

16. It appears that curb is indicated as a barrier for the vehicle use area and the curb returns however there is not a keynote depicting curb. For plan clarity add a keynote to depict where curb is located within the vehicle use area and for the curb returns.

17. Sidewalks within a project must be physically separated from vehicular use areas by means of grade separation, curbs, barriers, railing etc. Revise as necessary. DS 2-08.4.1.

18. Align driveway access to existing driveway across the street. Closed unused driveways. Show adjacent driveways. Chapter 25.

19. In areas where fill is to be used to raise the elevation of the building site, the building line shall be located not less than twenty-five (25) feet landward from any edge of the fill, unless a study prepared by a state-registered professional civil engineer and approved by the city engineer shows that a lesser distance is acceptable. Tucson Code Chapter 26-8.d.2

20. Development in the floodway fringe shall be constructed so as to protect placed fill from erosion which could be caused by waters, or otherwise. Such fill shall be permitted only when demonstrated by the owner/developer that it will have some beneficial purpose, as determined by the city engineer, and the amount of proposed fill is not in excess of what is necessary to achieve that purpose. The fill shall be protected from erosion which could be accomplished by placing riprap, vegetative cover, bulk heading, or any other city engineer approved methods. Revise the site plan to show protective measures for the fill. Tucson Code Chapter 26-5.2.12

21. Proposed fills in excess of two feet above existing grade at any location in the outer one hundred feet of the developing site adjacent to residentially zoned property require the procedure outlined in IBC Chapter 36 Section13.1. This process must be complete prior to Grading Plan approval.

22. Sidewalks must be flood free for up to a ten year event. The sidewalks proposed on the plan connecting the building are blocking the flow. Show sidewalk scuppers where appropriate. Drainage must be routed under all the sidewalks including the one adjacent to the PAAL.


DRAINAGE REPORT COMMENTS

1. The datum used in the drainage report and the site plan are different, resulting in a 2.3' difference in elevation. The datum used on the site plan must match what is used in the drainage report or the correct conversion must occur on the site plan for the correct finish floor elevation. Revise as necessary.

2. The site plan is required to have a screen wall adjacent to the vehicle use area along the property line (see landscape's comment number one). Page three of the drainage report states that screen walls are not proposed. Unless a variance is requested and approved a screen wall is required to screen the VUA from the residentially zoned parcels. Revise the drainage report to address the required walls. Size the wall opening if appropriate.

3. The datum used on the site plan and drainage report do not match. The site plan states under the basis of elevation NAVD 1988 was used. The drainage report used NGVD 1929, which results in an approximate difference of 2.3' in elevations. On sheet 2 the finish floor elevations appear to be in NGVD 1929. The datum on the drainage report and the site plan must match. Revise the site plan and/or the drainage report to be consistent. DS 2-02.2.1.23.

4. The drainage report refers to figure 5 (proposed conditions). Figure 5 was not submitted with both submitted drainage reports. Submit figure 5.
