| 09/26/2013 | JASON GREEN | ENGINEERING | REVIEW | Approved | DATE: September 26, 2013 SUBJECT: Bedroom, bathroom, kitchen, laundry room addition to an existing single-family residence TO: David Bones LOCATION: 1233 N 3rd Ave; T14S R13E Sec01, Ward 6 REVIEWERS: Jason Green, CFM ACTIVITY: T13CM058533 (Site Plan) and T13OT01138 (Floodplain Use Permit) SUMMARY: Engineering Division of Planning & Development Services Department has received and reviewed the Site Plan (T13CM058533) and Floodplain Use Permit (T13OT01138) for the construction of the bedroom, bathroom, kitchen, laundry room and porch addition and interior improvements to the existing structure for the above referenced property and does not recommend approval of the Site Plan or Floodplain Use Permit at this time. The subject property is located within a mapped City of Tucson Flood Hazard Area as shown on the Flood Hazard Maps associated with a tributary of the Mabel Street Wash. Any improvements to the existing structure are considered a substantial improvement to an existing floodprone structure if the value of the new improvement is 50% or more than the assessed/appraised value of the existing structure. Please note that as per the Substantial Improvement & Substantial Damage Rule: A Guideline for Permitting, dated October 2003 only one 3-foot wide doorway may be provided between the common wall of the existing structure and the new improvement. If more than one 3-foot wide linking doorway is proposed for the new improvement, and/or the improvements are determined to be substantial, then the entire existing structure and improved portions of the structure must be brought into compliance by elevation of the floors 1-foot above the regulatory flood elevation. In order to help you permit the addition we will need the following information from you. 1) Provide a cost estimate, prepared by a licensed contractor or professional construction estimator, for the addition and all proposed interior improvements to the existing structure showing fair market value of the material and labor. Please refer to the relative portions of the Handbook for Arizona Communities on Floodplain Management and the National Flood Insurance Program here; http://www.azwater.gov/azdwr/SurfaceWater/FloodManagement/documents/HandbookOct2000.pdf 2) Provide an assessed or appraised value of the existing single family. The assessed or appraised value is for the structure only (excluding land value). The assessed value can be provided by the latest assessment rolls of the county assessor prior to the improvements being started or from a licensed appraiser. 3) If the cost estimate provided exceeds the 50% threshold then the lowest finished floor elevation of the proposed addition must be a minimum of one foot above the computed 100-year water surface elevation of the adjacent wash, evaluated at the upstream end of the structure per the Mabel Wash Flood Hazard Study (prepared by JE Fuller Hydrology and Geomorphology, Inc. dated 19APR13). A site plan drawn to scale is needed showing the proposed building location, vertical datum used for calculating the water surface elevation, locations of hydraulic cross sections, floodplain limits, the lowest finished floor elevation for the proposed addition, and a detail of the foundation and method of elevation. The base flood elevation calculated at the upstream end of the structure is 2396.25' NAVD88 therefore the FFE must be elevated to 2397.25' NAVD88. 4) The applicant can provide a survey or Elevation Certificate for the existing structure to show that it is a conforming structure (FFE equals or exceeds 2397.25' NAVD) then the proposed addition will only need to be elevated (with the 2 required Elevation Certificates) and the interior improvements will not be limited to the 50% improvement rule. 5) Cumulative values shall be accounted for the building structure for this improvement, so that tracking of the 50% status is current. No person shall repair or alter property in a piecemeal manner so as to avoid the provisions of Section 26-4.1.a.3, Chapter 26-Floodplain and Erosion Hazard Management. GENERAL COMMENTS: Please provide a cost estimate and the assessed or appraised value of the structure or a revised plan showing the method of elevation and the minimum FFE for the addition that 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 837-4929.
