The site plan is not approved at this time. Please address the following comments: The subject property is entirely located within a Special Flood Hazard Area (SFHA), Zone AE as shown on the Flood Insurance Rate Map (FIRM), Community- Panel No. 040073-04019C-2220K, effective date February 8, 1999, with a LOMR revision effective September 25, 2000. Federal law requires that a flood insurance policy be obtained as a condition of a federally backed mortgage or loan that is secured by a building located within a SFHA. SITE PLAN COMMENTS: 1) DS Sec.2-02.2.1.A.5: Revise the site plan to provide the bearing for the lot dimensions shown. Reference Basis of Bearing used to establish the lot dimensions. 2) DS Sec.2-02.2.1.A.12: Revise the site plan to label and show the required 5-foot wide sidewalk along the street frontage of Probasco Drive. 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. Clarify on the site plan that all handicap ramps at the transition of a pedestrian circulation area to a vehicular use area (driveway) has the required detectable warning devices (truncated domes) per ANSI Standards A117.1-2003 Section 406.13. 3) DS Sec.2-02.2.1.A.15: Provide the limits of the mapped regulatory FEMA SFHA as shown on the FIRM Panel 2220K. The entire parcel is subject to the SFHA, a note can be provided on the site plan to state: "Entire parcel is located within a FEMA SFHA, Zone AE per the Community FIRM Panel #04019C2220K." 4) DS Sec.2-02.2.1.A.16: Revise the site plan to show the finish floor elevation (FFE) elevated 1.0- foot above the calculated base flood elevation (BFE). The FFE must be elevated to or above the regulatory flood elevation (RFE) which is 2425.6' North American Vertical Datum (NGVD29). Revise the details on Sheet A3 to show the existing ground elevation, method of elevation (fill, stem wall, combination of the two) and the FFE elevated to or above the RFE. Refer to City of Tucson Code Chapter 26-5.2 for floodway fringe development requirements and required methods of elevation. 5) TC Sec.26-5.2.11: Revise the site plan to show that all service equipment, such as air conditioning, evaporating coolers, electrical and heating equipment servicing the single-family residence are elevated at or above the RFE (2425.6' NGVD29). 6) DS Sec.2-02.2.1.A.16: Revise the site plan to show the flow arrows for the onsite drainage. Verify that positive drainage is provided around the proposed single-family residence, driveway and garage. 7) DS Sec.2-02.2.1.A.17: Provide cut and fill quantities on the proposed site plan for grading plan purposes. 8) DS Sec.2-02.2.1.A.19: Revise the site plan to show and label the right-of-way information for Probasco Drive. Provide the recordation information for both Probasco Drive and the "Unknown" access located to the east of the subject parcel. 9) DS Sec.2-02.2.1.20: Revise the site plan to reflect the 10-foot "utility and access" easement as shown on the approved lot split, S06-202, located along the west side of the subject parcel. 10) DS Sec.2-02.2.1.A.21: Provide dimensions from street monument lines to the proposed curb, sidewalk, utility lines, and driveway. 11) DS Sec.2-02.2.1.A.23: Revise the site plan to show spot elevations on the parcel to assure positive drainage away from the proposed single-family residence. Reference the Bench Mark used based on City of Tucson Datum, including City Field Book and page number. GENERAL COMMENTS: Please be advised that since the subject parcel is located within a SFHA Zone AE floodplain, it will be required that 2 elevation certificates, for the proposed single-family residence, be filled out by an Arizona Registered Land Surveyor showing that the lowest finished floor of the proposed SFR and the service facilities are elevated to or above the RFE, and returned to our office. The first elevation certificate must be returned to this office prior to the pouring of the slab. The second elevation certificate must be returned to our office prior to the certificate of occupancy. Provide a revised site plan that address the comments provided above. Include a comprehensive response letter addressing in detail responses to all of the above comments. Further comments may be generated upon resubmittal of the site plan. Please enclose "redlines" with the resubmittal package for reference. For any questions or to schedule a meeting, call me at 791-5550, extension 1189.
