Below are the Engineering Division’s comments for the above referenced submittal provided in 
March 2021. These items will have to be addressed prior to the Planning and Zoning 
Meeting. 
 
1. None. 
 
The below items will have to be addressed during the Construction Plan Submittal. 
 
Civil Plans 
1. Civil Plans shall be submitted for review and approval. An Engineering Permit will be 
required. 
2. The plans shall include: 
a. Topographic contours at a minimum interval of two feet; 
b. Adjacent streets and street rights-of-way;  
c. Any exterior refuse collection areas;  
d. Any exterior lighting 
3. The provided deed shows the dimensions of the parcel as 120’ x 120’ which is different 
than what the Architectural Plans show. The plans will need to provide an updated 
boundary. 
4. Provide an unobstructed view easement per City Detail EM-159 and 20’ chamfer per City 
Detail EM-161 at the northwest corner of the property. No vehicles may park within 
these areas. The easement and right of way shall be dedicated to the City via separate 
instrument. The asphalt and CMU column located in this area shall be removed. 
5. The Narrative references an 8-inch storm drain at the northeast corner of the property. 
The City is not aware of any storm drain in this location. 
6. The Narrative states that “water that is not routed to city limits is retained in surrounding 
gravel and soil”. Runoff cannot be retained on site unless it is within a designated 
retention basin or similar structure where the finished floors will be a minimum of 12 
inches above the 100-year high water level and 14 inches above the low outfall of the lot. 
A Grading Plan with flow arrows is required to show how the site drains. 
7. Multi-family uses require 2.25 parking spaces per unit and the office building requires a 
minimum of 4 spaces. Therefore, 11 parking spaces will be required. One of the parking 
spaces shall be a van accessible ADA space (11’ space with 5’ access aisle or 8’ space

2 
 
with 8’ access aisle) with the necessary striping and signage. The ADA space shall have 
the shortest path to the building(s). 
8. The standard parking spaces shall be a minimum of 18 feet long and a minimum of 9 feet 
wide. The parking spaces will need to be restriped. 
9. Concrete curb is typically required around a parking area. The City will allow the wood 
planks but new planks must be installed and shall be permanently attached to the ground 
(i.e. rebar, etc.). 
10. Provide existing and proposed utility information including the following: 
a. Show water services lines & sizes 
b. Show water meter sizes 
c. Show irrigation services lines & sizes 
d. Show irrigation meter sizes 
e. Show sanitary service line and sizes 
f. Show sewer cleanouts 
g. Show hydrants 
11. The proposed water meters shall be placed within the City’s right of way, not within 
private property. The minimum proposed water service size shall be 1-inch and installed 
per City Detail EM-325. The proposed office will require a backflow preventer per City 
Detail EM-351. If a fire line is installed, a backflow preventer will also be required for 
that line with the size of the line determining which City detail to use. 
12. Any proposed sewer service shall adhere to City Detail EM-440. The minimum service 
size is 4 inches. A backwater valve per City Detail EM-442 is required if the finished 
floor of the building is less than 12 inches higher than the upstream manhole of the main 
that the service ties into. 
13. Plans shall include applicable City Notes. Call out MAG, City, etc. details to be used. 
Use the latest version of the City’s Design and Development Standards Manual (DDSM) 
as a guide during the design. The link to the City information is here. 
 
Drainage Statement 
14. A Drainage Statement is required. 
 
Miscellaneous 
15. A Dust Control Permit from the County will be required if more than 0.10 acre is 
disturbed. A copy of this permit shall be provided to the City prior to construction permit 
approval.

Additional comments will arise during the formal permit submittal.
