<br /> Re: 680 Tonkawa Road
<br /> Plat No. 03-2901
<br /> File No. 139-03-000
<br /> Dear Mike,
<br /> We have reviewed the revised grading plan dated 6-19-03 for the proposed new home construction at 680
<br /> Tonkawa Road. We have the following comments in regards to engineering matters.
<br /> • The sod swales north and south of the proposed home are shown at grades of 6%to 8%. We recommend
<br /> that sod swales not exceed 5%because of erosion concerns.The applicant should modify the Swale design
<br /> to minimize erosion potential.
<br /> • Retaining walls exceeding 4-feet in height require a separate engineered design submittal for review and
<br /> approval. Wall elevations were not provided so it is unclear whether any walls heights exceed 4-feet.
<br /> • The applicant has stated that drainage calculations were submitted for the neighboring property at 684
<br /> Tonkawa approximately 1 1/z years ago.That may be true however they are not specific to this application.
<br /> Separate drainage information should be submitted that is specific to this site. That information should
<br /> include existing and proposed drainage area maps and drainage calculations for the one, ten and one
<br /> hundred year storm events.The drainage area maps should show the total drainage areas(on and off site)
<br /> affecting all areas of the property.Flows through swales on the north and south sides of the proposed home
<br /> should be quantified. Pre new home rates should not exceed post new home rates.
<br /> • The erosion and sediment control measures should be in place,inspected and approved by the city prior to
<br /> any grading or construction activities.
<br /> Please contact me at(651) 604-4863 if you have any questions regarding this matter.
<br /> Yours very truly,
<br /> BONESTROO, ROSENE, ANDERLIK & ASSOCIATES, INC.
