Ordinance No. 16-834 Exhibit A Design Requirements 136. The following requirements shall be incorporated into the project: a. The project applicant or developer shall submit a final grading and drainage plan prepared by a licensed civil engineer depicting all final grades and on-site drainage control measures including bio-swales. Irrigated bio-swales shall be redesigned as needed to the satisfaction of the City Engineer to optimize the amount of the stormwater running off the paved surface that enters the bio-swale at its most upstream end. This plan shall be subject to the review and approval of the City Engineer prior to the issuance of any building permits. b. In addition to natural controls, the project applicant or developer may be required to install a structural control, such as an oiVwater separator, sand filter, or approved equal (in the parking lot) (on the site) to intercept and pre-treat stormwater prior to reaching the storm drain. The design, locations, and a schedule for maintaining the separator shall be submitted to the City Engineer/Chief Building and Safety Official for review and approval prior to issuance of building permits. The structural control shall be cleaned at least twice a year: once immediately prior to October 15 and once in January. c. The project applicant or developer shall submit sizing design criteria to treat stormwater runoff and for hydromodification, if required, at the time of PUD plan submittal and an updated detailed copy of calculations with subsequent submittals. d. Landscaping shall be designed to minimize irrigation and runoff, promote surface infiltration where appropriate and acceptable to the project soils engineer, and minimize the use of fertilizers and pesticides that can contribute to stormwater pollution. e Structures shall be designed to prohibit the occurrence and entry of pests into buildings, thus minimizing the need for pesticides. e Where feasible, landscaping shall be designed and operated to treat stormwater runoff. In areas that provide detention of water, plants that are tolerant of saturated soil conditions and prolonged exposure to water shall be specified. Soil shall be amended as required. (See planting guidelines of the Alameda County Clean Water Program.) • Plant materials selected shall be appropriate to site specific characteristics such as soil type, topography, climate, amount and timing of sunlight, prevailing winds, rainfall, air movement, patterns of land use, ecological consistency and plant interactions to ensure successful establishment.
