| 08/24/2007 | DAVID RIVERA | ZONING | REVIEW | Denied | 08/24/07 Development Services Department Zoning Review Section David Rivera Principal Planner Comments: 1. The grading plan has been reviewed by Zoning Review Section but cannot approve the plan until at this time. The site plan has not been approved and it is not clear if changes to the site will require additional changes to the grading plan. The following are minimal comments that should be addressed, but additional comments may be forthcoming. 2. Zoning could not verify that the grading plan was in compliance with the approved site plan. Please submit two copies of the approved and stamped site, landscape, and NPPO plans with the next grading plan submittal. 3. Zoning will re-review the grading plan on the next submittal to ensure compliance with the approved and stamped site plan. Additional comments may be forthcoming. |
| 08/29/2007 | ANDREW CONNOR | NPPO | REVIEW | Denied | 1. Submit a copy of the approved site plan including landscape and NPPO plans for reference. Revise grading plans as necessary to comply with the approved site plan. Review will continue upon re-submittal of requested documents. |
| 09/21/2007 | JASON GREEN | ENGINEERING | REVIEW | Denied | DATE: September 21, 2007 SUBJECT: 7000 S Palo Verde Road Grading Plan- Engineering Review TO: Rick Engineering Company LOCATION: T15S R14E Sec16, Ward 5 REVIEWERS: Jason Green, CFM ACTIVITY: T07BU01719 (Grading Plan) SUMMARY: Engineering Division of Development Services Department has received and reviewed the proposed grading plan (T07BU01719), Geotechnical Engineering Report (Terracon, 12JUN07), and Stormwater Pollution Prevention Plan (Rick Engineering Company, 31JUL07) for the above referenced property. Engineering Division does not recommend approval of the grading plan application at this time. The following items need to be addressed: DRAINAGE REPORT: A drainage report was not submitted for review with the proposed grading plan. The application package is incomplete and not all aspects of the grading plan could be reviewed. Submit a drainage report, last approved site plan and all applicable addendum's to all other reports with the next submittal of the grading plan. 1) Per the site plan comments: Provide a revised drainage report and site plan that addresses the revised offsite flows along the north property line. The property (Airport Run Commerce Center) directly north of the subject parcel has a recently approved grading plan with an associated drainage report that shows a difference in how offsite flows enters the subject property. The adjacent properties have designed small retention basin in the southwest corner of each lot that allows stormwater to outlet via a weir system. Low flow bleed pipes are also installed within each basin to prevent ponding water. This project must provide a discuss within the drainage report and show in plan view how the new offsite flow is being accepted along the north property line and being conveyed across the property without causing damage to any proposed construction. A copy of the drainage report and last approved grading plan for Airport Run can be obtained at the Records Department of Development Services Division. GRADING PLAN COMMENTS: Be advised that grading plan can not be approved prior to site plan approval. Please ensure that the grading plan is consistent with the site plan and Drainage Report. Grading standards may be accessed at: http://www.ci.tucson.az.us/dsd/DevStandsTOC.pdf 2) Label and dimension the minimum PAAL widths and PAAL intersections shown on the grading plan. Specifically between buildings 2 and 3 along the west side and along the south side of building 2 at the PAAL intersection with the ingress driveway. 3) Revise the crosswalk location proposed from building 1 to Palo Verde Road. The crosswalk connection must be perpendicular to the proposed PAAL for pedestrian safety. 4) Label and dimension the required maneuvering area in plan view for all loading zones that are shown on the grading plan. Refer to AASHTO for the national standards for turning radii. Label the minimum inside and outside radii for maneuverability. 5) Revise Sheet 8 of the grading plan to provide the water surface elevations (WSEL) for all cross section locations as shown on Figure 5 in the drainage report (site plan comment). The WSEL must be provided along the entire length of Corona Road as per the drainage report. 6) Clarify the spot elevations for the basin top, basin bottom and weir elevations as shown on the grading plan. Basin design and finished elevations could not be verified since a drainage report was not submitted for review. 7) The property directly north of the subject parcel has an approved grading plan with an associated drainage report that shows a difference in how offsite flows affect this property. The adjacent properties have designed small retention basin in the southwest corner of each lot that allows stormwater to outlet via a weir system. Low flow bleed pipes are also installed within each basin to prevent ponding water. This project must show in plan view how the new offsite flow is being accepted along the north property line and being conveyed across the property without causing damage to any proposed construction. A copy of the drainage report and last approved grading plan for Airport Run can be obtained at the Records Department of Development Services Division. 8) It is acknowledge that a screen wall is not required, however the area between the dumpster and the proposed building must have steel bollards installed to protect the building wall from damage related to the trash container. 9) DS Sec.11-01.9: Revise the site plan to provide the required 2-feet setback from all property boundaries to the proposed limits of grading and fill slopes. Revise the site plan to show cross sections along the east and north property lines for the Phase I development to verify the 2-feet setback. Provide in the cross sections the property lines, 2-feet setback, percent slope of landscape area, curbing, parking stalls, PAALs, and building location. 10) Clearly indicate on the grading plan phase lines. Show Phase numbers and clearly delineate lines on each sheet of the grading plan. Each phase must function independent of future phases, provide development calculations for each phase. 11) Revise the grading plan to verify that all details are dimensioned with riprap call outs, concrete thickness, method of placement, etc. 12) A base plan is required for all development projects. A base plan (site plan showing future development with a clear frame of construction time) is required to show how this portion of the property is to be developed. 13) DS Sec.11-01.2.3.A: It is acknowledge that the stockpile will be hydro-seeded per the grading plan, however a precise time frame is required for the development of this portion of the property. The time frame provided would determine what type of controls will be required for the stockpile. Due to the amount of fill proposed to be stockpiled a bond will be posted for native seeding. If grading construction does not commence within 60 days after grubbing, the disturbed area shall be native seeded within 30 days following the expiration of the 60 day period. a) Acceptable temporary controls during grading construction and up to the 60 +30 day period of non-activity: - interim erosion and sediment controls as indicated by standard accepted BMP's - spray-ons - unestablished vegetation - water truck for dust abatement - daily sweeping of the streets b) For stockpiles that expect to last longer than a couple of months, the accepted permanent erosion protection shall be in the form of: - established revegetation - gravel or rock 14) Per DS Sec.11-01.11.1: Provide a note on the site plan that states: "The faces of cut and fill slopes shall be prepared and maintained to control against erosion. This control may consist of effective planting. The protection for the slopes shall be installed per the geotechnical recommendations and as soon as practicable and prior to calling for final approval. Where cut slopes are not subject to erosion due to the erosion-resistant character of the materials, such protection may be omitted." 15) Provide a general note on the grading plan to state the following; "Call for a Pre-construction meeting prior to start of earthwork. To schedule a DSD Pre-construction meeting, SWPPP inspection or general Engineering Inspections, call IVR (740-6970), or schedule with a Customer Service Representative at the Development Services Department, or contact DSD Engineering at 791-5550 extension 2101, or schedule inspections online at: http://www.ci.tucson.az.us/dsd/Online_Services/Online_Permits/online_permits.html " STORMWATER POLLUTION PREVETION PLAN: The SWPPP does not meet the minimum requirements of the AzPDES Construction General Permit (CGP). Revise the SWPPP to include all areas of disturbance, including but not limited to the demolishing of the existing roadway and the stockpile area. The SWPPP will be reviewed for full compliance once the following information is included on the plan and with a discussion within the report. 16) DS Sec.11-01.2.3.A: It is acknowledge that the stockpile will be hydro-seeded per the grading plan, however a precise time frame is required for the development of this portion of the property. Provide a clear and precise discussion within the SWPPP report that addresses the stockpile permit specifically. The time frame provided would determine what type of controls will be required for the stockpile. Due to the amount of fill proposed to be stockpiled a bond will be posted for native seeding. If grading construction does not commence within 60 days after grubbing, the disturbed area shall be native seeded within 30 days following the expiration of the 60 day period. c) Acceptable temporary controls during grading construction and up to the 60 +30 day period of non-activity: - interim erosion and sediment controls as indicated by standard accepted BMP's - spray-ons - unestablished vegetation - water truck for dust abatement - daily sweeping of the streets d) For stockpiles that expect to last longer than a couple of months, the accepted permanent erosion protection shall be in the form of: - established revegetation - gravel or rock GENERAL COMMENTS: Please provide the last approved site plan, a revised grading plan, revised SWPPP and submit the drainage report that addresses the comments provided above. Include a comprehensive response letter addressing in detail responses to all of the above comments. Enclose "redlines" with the resubmittal package. Further comments may be generated upon resubmittal of the grading plan, SWPPP and drainage report reviews. For any questions or to schedule a meeting, call me at 837-4929.
