| 08/19/2004 | PATRICIA GILBERT | ENGINEERING | REVIEW | Denied | DATE: August 17, 2004 ACTIVITY NUMBER: T04OT01512 PROJECT NAME: Navajo North PROJECT ADDRESS: 104 West Navajo Road PROJECT REVIEWER: Patricia Gilbert FLOODPLAIN USE PERMIT IS DENIED RESUBMITTAL REQUIRED: SITE PLAN, DRAINAGE REPORT, FLOODPLAIN USE PERMIT APPLICATION 1. Show the 100-year peak water surface elevation (WSEL) on the site plan. DS 2-02.2.1.A.15. 2. It is acknowledged that on the site plan under the drainage notes there is 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 on the site plan 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. 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. Submit a study or revise the site plan accordingly. Tucson Code Chapter 26-8.d.2 5. 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 6. 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. This is too confusing. The datum on the drainage report and the site plan must match. Revise the site plan and/or the drainage report to be consistent. This must be addressed prior to floodplain use permit approval. DS 2-02.2.1.23. |
