(A) A grading plan shall consist of a general set of plans of five mil mylar reproducible sheets measuring 24 inches by 36 inches, drawn to an engineering scale of a maximum of one inch equals 50 feet, showing the original and designed finish contours, spot elevations of building pads and public improvements, slope ratios, proposed and existing drainage facilities and patterns, protective fencing, retaining walls, and any structures or buildings on adjacent properties within 15 feet of the common property lines, and the existing elevations of adjoining/adjacent properties and parcels.
(B) All grading plans shall be signed and stamped by a registered civil engineer. The Director of Public Works may waive this requirement when in his or her opinion the proposed grading entails little hazard to any property, and either:

(2) The proposed grading does not exceed 100 cubic yards, is upon a single lot or parcel, does not necessitate construction of extensive drainage structures, erosion control facilities, or other facilities and does not interfere in any way with existing natural or improved drainage courses or channels.
(C) A statement of quantities shall be on the plan, giving the estimated cubic yards or excavation, embankment, import, export, and the shrinkage or swell factor.
(D) All grading plans shall also include a vicinity map, legend, address of parcel, north arrow, bearing and distance of property lines, prominent existing or natural terrain features, setbacks from tops and toes of slopes to property lines or other features, daylight lines, and drainage patterns.
(E) Finish grading plans shall show the footprint for all proposed structures, setback distances therefrom, detailed finish grading, finish floor elevations, yard swales and drains, all concrete sidewalks, driveways or flatwork which will be used for drainage and drainage retention areas.
(F) The title sheet of all grading plans shall show the names, addresses and phone numbers of the site owner, the responsible civil engineer, project soil engineer and geologist, and the subdivider or developer of the property if different from the owner. At least one print submitted to the Director of Public Works shall be signed by the soil engineer and geologist.
