| 02/02/2010 | JASON GREEN | ENGINEERING | REVIEW | Denied | DATE: February 5, 2010 SUBJECT: 3607 E Speedway Blvd- Engineering Review Site and Grading Plan TO: SCE Corporation Attn: Charles Corrales LOCATION: T14S R14E Sec04 Ward 6 REVIEWERS: Jason Green, CFM ACTIVITY: T09CM03157 (Site Plan), T09BU01778 (Grading Plan) and T10OT00094 (Floodplain Use Permit) SUMMARY: Engineering Division of Planning and Development Services Department has received and reviewed the site plan (T09CM03157), grading plan (T09BU01778), Floodplain Use Permit (T10OT00094) and Drainage Report (SCE Corporation, 07DEC09) for the above referenced property. Engineering Division does not recommend approval of the site plan or grading plan at this time. The following items need to be addressed: SITE PLAN COMMENTS: 1) The site plan was reviewed for conformance with Development Standards Sec.2-02, 3-01, 3-05, 6-01 and 11-01 and the Tucson Code Chapter 26 "Floodplain and Erosion Hazard Management". It is recommended that the resubmittal have both the site plan sheet and grading plan sheet combined along with a detail sheet to make a complete plan set to help facilitate the review process. Make sure that all dimensions, details, sections, keynotes, proposed improvements and all other aspects of this project meet the minimum requirements within the referenced sections and are reflected on the revised plan sheets. 2) Revise the site plan sheet to provide the activity number assigned to this project (T09CM03157) as depicted by "P1209-." 3) Revise the plan sheets to remove the Approval Box reference for the subdivision coordinator. The reference is not applicable to city projects. 4) DS Sec.2-02.2.1.A: Provide the symbol used to denote the 100-year floodplain limits under the Legend Section on Sheet 1. 5) DS Sec.2-02.2.1.A.8: Revise the plan set to correctly call out the detail for Keynote D. The extruded curb detail is on Sheet 1. It is recommended that all details be provided on a separate detail sheet. 6) DS Sec.2-02.2.1.A.8: Provide a cross access and cross parking agreement between the existing 2 lots. Or provide a lot combination approval through the Zoning Section. 7) DS Sec.2-02.2.1.A.8: Revise the plan set to label the minimum 24-foot PAAL widths at all PAAL intersections, property lines and adjacent to both proposed refuse container locations. 8) DS Sec.2-02.2.1.A.8: Revise the site plan to provide dimensions for the required back-up spur adjacent to any proposed gate location. Verify the minimum 6 foot separation between gate and the vehicle back-up. Refer to DS Sec.3-05.2.2.D for clarification. 9) DS Sec.2-02.2.1.A.10: Revise the plan sheets to correctly dimension the SVTs (near and far side) for all PAAL access points. The stem side dimension is drawn parallel to the curb line of the PAAL and the curb line of the intersection street. Refer to DS Sec.3-01.5.1 and Figure 16 for SVT procedures and criteria. Also provide a landscape plan to reflect the SVT shown on the plan set. 10) DS Sec.2-02.2.1.A.11: After discussion with City of Tucson Transportation Engineering it is recommended that the PAAL entry points from Richey Blvd be revised. For the first PAAL entry point a standard driveway entrance design will be required in order to provide for the required landing space at the top of the proposed handicap access ramps within the right-of-way. The proposed 18-foot curb returns for the second PAAL entry point is accepted for refuse maneuverability. If the 18-foot radii are still proposed at both entry points then accurate dimensions must be provided on the plan to show that all sidewalk improvements meet the minimum requirements for ramps, landing widths, etc. 11) DS Sec.2-02.2.1.A.11: Revise the plan set to accurately label in plan view the reference for the relocation of the power poles at the PAAL entry points. All symbols used on the site plan must be shown in the legend section with a description. 12) DS Sec.2-02.2.1.A.12: Revise the plan set to clearly label Keynote 'A' in plan view for the proposed 5-foot sidewalk within the public right-of-way of Richey Blvd. It is recommended that the Keynote be labeled next to the sidewalk label in plan view. 13) DS Sec.2-02.2.1.A.12: Refer to comments from Ron Brown, RA Structural Plans Examiner for all onsite handicap and ANSI Standard requirements that apply to this project. 14) DS Sec.2-02.2.1.A.14: Clarify on the site plan the maneuverability for the proposed loading zone as shown. It appears that the parking stalls and curb return might be in conflict. Refer to AASHTO for the national standards for turning radii. Label the minimum width of the entry point for the loading zone. 15) DS Sec.2-02.2.1.A.16: Provide the Improvement Plan reference number for all existing drainage infrastructure adjacent to the site; i.e. catch basins, storm drains, etc. All existing drainage improvements that are shown on the site plan must have the referenced improvement plan for site verification. 16) DS Sec.2-02.2.1.A.19: Revise the plan sheets to label both Richey Blvd and Speedway Blvd as "Public." Also label Speedway Blvd as "MS&R Arterial." 17) DS Sec.2-02.2.1.A.32: Revise the plan set and detail for the proposed refuse container that meets the minimum requirements within DS Sec.6-01. Refer to Figure 3 and DS Sec.6-01.4.2 for specifications and requirements on access, placement of containers, and bin enclosure construction. It is recommended that all details be provided on a separate detail sheet. 18) DS Sec.2-02.2.1.A.32: Provide written approval from Environmental Services for refuse maneuverability. Provide the required 14-foot by 40-foot clear approach and verify the maximum allowed back up distance for maneuverability. Refuse vehicles can not back up into required parking spaces. 19) Be advised that further comments may be forth coming on resubmittal of the site plan and grading plan. GRADING PLAN: 20) For convenience the proposed plan set can be changed to be both a site/grading plan as long as all applicable details, references and notes are provided on the plan set. If the submittals stay separated then all information must be shown on both plan sets for site layout and construction purposes. 21) Verify that all notes reference City of Tucson standards. Example, General Grading/Paving Note #1 should reference "City of Tucson Development Standard 11-01.0 (excavation and grading requirements)." 22) Revise the typo within the Basis of Elevation Section for the topography and spot elevations shown. The section references a 21,473.979 foot elevation (Mt McKinley, AL is 20,320') at the intersection of Richey Blvd and Speedway Blvd. 23) Revise the grading plan sheet to provide the grading plan activity number assigned to this project (T09BU01778) as depicted by "P1209-." 24) Provide a General Grading/Paving Note on the plan set to state, "Call for a Pre-construction meeting prior to start of earthwork. To schedule a PDSD Pre-construction meeting, SWPPP inspection or general Engineering Inspections, call IVR (740-6970), or schedule with a Customer Service Representative at the Planning Development Services Department, or contact PDSD 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" FLOODPLAIN USE PERMIT: 25) A Floodplain Use Permit (T10OT00094) was submitted for this project due to the improvements within the mapped 100-year floodplain per the referenced Drainage Report. The Floodplain Use Permit will be approved and conditioned based upon grading plan approval. GENERAL COMMENTS: Please provide a revised site plan and grading plan set 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 plan review. A meeting is requested for this project prior to resubmittal to help ensure a timely review, call me at 837-4929.
