SUMMARY: Engineering Division of Development Services Department has received the proposed site plan and grading plan. Engineering Division has reviewed the submitted site plan and grading plan and does not recommend approval at this time. The following items need to be addressed:


SITE PLAN:

1) DS Sec.2-02.2.1.A.5: Provide the dimension and bearing for the front property line per the final plat, Book 59, Page 41.

2) DS Sec.2-02.2.1.A.11: Provide the width for the proposed driveway and curb cut location. The maximum driveway width allowed is 20-foot and verify that the proposed driveway is separated from adjacent driveways by a 12-foot separation.

3) DS Sec.2-02.2.1.A.12: Provide the dimensions and label the existing curb and sidewalk located along Twinkling Starr Drive. Label existing curb as either wedge or vertical.

4) DS Sec.2-02.2.1.A.12: Revise the site plan to verify that all slopes along the driveway entrance and sidewalk transitions meet ANSI requirements. Refer to DS Sec3-01 Figure 4 for the maximum cross slope for the sidewalk and required handicap ramp. All handicap ramps must be constructed with truncated domes and must be indicted on the proposed site plan with a note or a detail.

5) DS Sec.2-02.2.1.A.16: Label on the site plan the percent slope for the proposed cut slope. Cut slope must be stabilized to be in conformance with DS Sec.9-04.3.3. Provide the percent slope on the detail and provide symbols in plan view to show the direction of the cut slope.

6) DS Sec.2-02.2.1.A.16: Revise the site plan so that the finished floor elevation (FFE) in plan view and detail view match.

7) DS Sec.2-02.2.1.A.16: Revise the site plan to show filter fabric under the proposed riprap along the interceptor swale that is shown in the detail.

8) DS Sec.2-02.2.1.A.18: Revise the site plan to label Twinkling Starr as a private road and Common Area "B" per the final plat, Book 59, Page 41.

9) DS Sec.2-02.2.1.A.20: Revise the site plan to label and dimension the 1-foot no access easement in plan view (key note #1) along the northwest property boundary.

10) DS Sec.2-02.2.1.A.20: Revise the site plan to provide the survey information, per Book 59, Page 41, for the platted natural undisturbed open space (NUOS) that is depicted along the northeast portion of the lot.

11) DS Sec.2-02.2.1.A.23: Provide on the site plan the datum reference used to establish the existing and proposed topographic contours and provide a Bench Mark based on City of Tucson Datum, including City Field Book and Page number.

12) DS Sec.2-02.2.1.A.27: Provide on the site plan any proposed walls, fences or vegetation for screening by type, material, height, location and spacing. All requirements within DS Sec.9-04 must be satisfied.

A grading permit may not be issued prior to site plan approval. The grading plan will be reviewed for approval once all comments associated with the site plan and HDZ design have been addressed. Subsequent comments may be necessary, depending upon the nature and extent of revisions that occur to the site plan.
