| 12/21/2007 | JASON GREEN | ENGINEERING | REVIEW | Denied | DATE: December 21, 2007 SUBJECT: HDZ Overlay Zone- Engineering Review TO: Patricia Gehlen, CDRC Manager LOCATION: 2314 W Helton Lane, T14S R13E Sec21 Ward 1 REVIEWER: Jason Green, CFM ACTIVITY: T07SA00226 SUMMARY: Engineering Division of Development Services Department has received and reviewed the HDZ Overlay application, preliminary grading plan sheet, Hydrologic and Hydraulic Report (PRE, Inc., 18JUL07) and the average cross slope analysis and does not recommend approval of the overlay application at this time. The preliminary grading plan sheet was reviewed for overlay application purposes only a grading permit application is required for a full grading review. The following items need to be addressed: SITE PLAN: 1) Be advised that the site plan (T07CM01236) can not be approved prior to the HDZ Overlay Application approval. This is the first submittal of the overlay application any changes may require a change in site plan design. 2) Provide a note on the site plan that states "A separate grading plan application is required for review and approval prior to any construction activities." HDZ OVERLAY COMMENTS: 3) DS Sec.2-12.2.3.A: Revise the grading plan submitted for HDZ review to include cross sections at all proposed constructed slopes (i.e. 4H: 1V, and 3H: 1V) to verify slopes, elevations, cut and fill quantities, limits of disturbance, etc. All constructed slopes proposed within the erosion hazard setback must be constructed to reduce the potential for undermining of the structure during a 100-year flow event. Provide details and calculation within a revised Hydrologic and Hydraulic Report for the constructed slope utilizing a cut-off wall or rock riprap design for scour protection. 4) DS Sec.9-04.2.1.G: Revise the average cross slope calculation shown in General Note #9. The average cross slope must be calculated through the mathematical formula represented in this section, Specifically the end result must be multiplied by a linear adjustment factor which equals the number of contour lines less one line, divided by the number of contour lines. 5) DS Sec.9-04.2.2.D: Revise the HDZ grading plan sheet to outline and indicate all slopes of 15% or greater on the property in plan view. Include the symbol used for delineating the area in the legend. 6) DS Sec.9-04.3.1.A.2: Provide a General Note on the grading plan stating "The portion of the site or lot to be left ungraded are to remain undisturbed are not to be used for stockpiling of materials or excess fill, construction vehicle access, storage of vehicles during construction, or similar uses. Temporary fencing will be installed on in order to prevent encroachment into these areas." 7) DS Sec.9-04.3.3: Revise General Note #12 to include the reference to DS Sec.9-04.3.3.A-C. 8) DS Sec.11-01.4.1.C.4: Provide a General Note stating that "All CMU walls and retaining walls will require a separate permit for review and approval by all necessary Development Services Departments." 9) Add a general note; "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 " HYDROLOGIC AND HYDRAULIC REPORT: 10) TC Sec.26-5.2: Provide a revised Hydrologic and Hydraulic Report with a more accurate floodplain determination and an erosion hazard setback evaluation discussion. Revise the preliminary grading plan to match the required information within the Hydrologic and Hydraulic Report. Refer to City of Tucson Code Chapter 26-5.2 for floodway fringe development requirements. The following information is required on the preliminary grading plan and must be discussed within the Hydrologic and Hydraulic Report: a) The proposed report must provide calculations, with reference to the equations used from DS Sec.10-2, to justify the proposed erosion hazard setback line that is shown for the regulatory wash. All constructed slopes proposed within the erosion hazard setback must be constructed to reduce the potential for undermining of the structure during a 100-year flow event. Provide details and calculation within a revised Hydrologic and Hydraulic Report for the constructed slope utilizing a cut-off wall or rock riprap design for scour protection. b) Preliminary grading plan and drainage exhibit must clearly show channel banks, channel centerline, flow arrows and a matching footprint of the proposed structure. c) Provide a Hydrologic and Hydraulic Report that calculates the water surface elevation (WSEL) at the upstream end of the structure and verify that the FFE and all service equipment is elevated at or above the RFE. d) Provide a revised Hydrologic and Hydraulic Report showing additional cross sections along the regulatory wash with water surface elevations labeled. Cross sections must be a minimum of 200-feet between cross section, however on a lot this size there should be a minimum of 3 cross sections; 1) at property line on the upstream end of the wash, 2) at the upstream end of the proposed single-family residence, and 3) at the property line on the downstream end of the wash. GENERAL COMMENTS: A Floodplain Use Permit (FUP) will be required for all work proposed in the floodplain or erosion hazard area. A FUP application will be required at the time that the grading plan application is submitted. Please provide a revised Hydrologic and Hydraulic Report and a revised preliminary grading plan at re-submittal of the HDZ Overlay review. The Hydrologic and Hydraulic Report and preliminary grading plan must address the comments provided above. Include a comprehensive response letter addressing in detail responses to all of the above comments. If you have any questions, I can be reached at 520-837-4929.
