SUBJECT:Utility and Transportation Comments for Dalpay short plat
Parcel Number 0423059032
LUA 17-000234
I have reviewed the application for the Dalpay short plat at PID # 0423059032 (located near the
intersection of NE 19th Street and Redmond Court NE) and have the following Conditions of approval and
the following review comments:
CONDITIONS OF APPROVAL:
Stormwater
The applicant should account for the impervious and pervious surface in proposed Lot1 also
in the new flow control facility and new basic water quality facility proposed for the project.
The proposed new flow control facility and new water quality facility is required to be resized
to account for Lot 1 also.
The TIR submitted with the land use application mentioned that the Lot 1 was already
accounted for in the existing stormwater facility already constructed for the Dalpay short plat
that was recorded in 2005. Since that short plat was recorded more than 5 years ago, the
stormwater is not vested with the already recorded short plat. If the applicant wants to use the
existing stormwater facility to account for Lot1, then the applicant should provide for City’s
review additional information that shows that the existing stormwater facility will meet the
current RSWDM requirements for the stormwater facility sizing, access, etc.

February 21, 2018 completed by Earth Solutions NW for the site has been provided. The
submitted report describes the site is not suitable for infiltration. A tightline conveyance of
the runoff across the steep slope area and controlled discharge via energy dissipater is
represented as the runoff conveyance option for the site. Erosion control measures will need
to be in place prior to starting grading activities on the site. Temporary construction
dewatering as well as temporary trench shoring may be necessary during utility excavation
and installation. Geotechnical recommendations presented need to be address within the
project plans and followed during construction.
b. A Preliminary Drainage Plan and Technical Information Report (TIR), dated April 25, 2018, was
