Truck turning radii should be plotted on the site plan to demonstrate that a truck can
safely circulate and maneuver within the parking lot, including backing into all loading
areas. The City requires a minimum turning radius of 42’, in accordance with
California Department of Transportation Highway Design Manual, Figure 407E.
A clear distance of 5’, for backing up of vehicles, is required for those parking stalls
located at the end of a parking aisle.
For the proposed trash enclosure in the southwest corner of the lot, a clear distance of
5’ should be provided between the enclosure and the end of the adjacent parking stall
to allow adequate space for servicing the refuse bins. Also, please refer to City standard drawing GS-16 for trash enclosures to assure adequate space is provided.
While no drainage slopes are shown, the Clty recommends a minimum 1% slope in
the parking lot.
If this project is formally submitted for a discretionary permit, it will be subject to
comply with the National Pollutant Discharge Elimination System (NPDES) permit.
This permit requires the project to provide best management practices to reduce
surface pollutants to an acceptable level prior to discharge. The plans should indicate
how this requirement will be met.
Examples of methods used to reduce surface pollutants on other industrial projects in
the City include directing surface runoff to a landscaped swale prior to discharge into
the storm drain, directing runoff into a natural lined drainage basin, or by providing a
specially designed interceptor system.
This project will require either submittal of a lot line adjustment application to
consolidate the two lots into one lot; or submittal of the project as a non-residential
planned unit development.
The site plan should be submitted so that north is towards the top of the plan sheet.
Please forward the red-lined check print to the applicant. If you have questions regarding any
of the comments above, please contact me at extension 4380.
