(A) Preliminary design report for development. A preliminary design report shall be submitted prior to or at the time of preliminary plat submittal. At a minimum, the preliminary report must address the following subjects:
(1) Vehicle trip generation;
(2) Roadway classification;
(3) Design speeds;
(4) Auxiliary and additional lane requirements;
(5) Parking requirements;
(6) Pedestrian, bicycle and equestrian requirements; and
(7) Special features and their influence.
(B) Traffic impact. Developers are responsible for submitting a “Traffic Impact Analysis for Proposed Development,” as outlined in ADOT Publication 35-209, and a traffic circulation study.
(C) Design study report.
(1) Developers are responsible for submitting a design study report to validate the design shown on the construction plans. The report shall briefly describe the basis of the design and the assumptions made and explain special solutions to problems encountered.
(2) The following sections shall be contained in the report.
(a) Soils report. A soils report shall be submitted with new street construction plans indicating “R” value, sieve analysis, plastic index of the sub-grade, and street structural cross-section design.
(b) Drainage report. A drainage report shall be submitted with new street construction plans and/or the grading plans. This report shall be prepared per Apache Junction City Code Vol. II, Article 10-4 of this chapter.
(c) Pavement evaluation report.
1. A pavement evaluation report shall be submitted with new street construction plans when it is proposed to match existing pavement. The design engineer is responsible for investigating and evaluating the existing pavement structure.
2. If the existing pavement does meet requirements, it may be matched by trimming a minimum of 2 feet for a longitudinal match, or a perpendicular match. Exact point of matching and method of trimming (saw cut or wheel cut) shall be determined in the field by the city engineer.
(d) Other details. Supplemental sketches, details, calculations and design rationale to support and justify engineering design shall be provided as needed and as requested by the city engineer.
