1. The amount of new impervious area will affect the Stormwater "new
development fee" and the submittal requirements for redevelopment.

documentation is needed with a site plan showing existing and
proposed impervious areas along with a table listing each area and
showing the final amount of new imperviousness.

encouraged as described in the Urban Storm Drainage Criteria
Manual, Volume 3 — Best Management Practices (BMPs). However,
this site does drain to the Udall Natural Area which does treat the
runoff so there is not a requirement for onsite wfater quality treatment.
If there are less than 5000 but more than 350 square feet of new
imperviousness, a site grading plan is all that is required.
