Cross Reference — As to sanitary sewers, public and private sewers design standards, art. VIII of this chapter.
[Ord. No. 06-05-01 §701, 5-9-2006]
This Article establishes the design and construction standards for public improvements installed in accordance with the provisions of this Chapter.
[Ord. No. 06-05-01 §702, 5-9-2006]
A. 
Engineering drawing standards are as follows:
1. 
All engineering drawings shall be of uniform size twenty-four (24) by thirty-six (36) inches. Consultants shall have their own title block. The registration seal of the responsible engineer shall be placed in a convenient place on each sheet of plans.
2. 
Whenever possible, engineering plans and profiles shall be drawn to a standard scale of one (1) inch equals fifty (50) feet horizontal and one (1) inch equals five (5) feet vertical. Drainage area maps, construction details and cross section or contour maps shall be drawn to a suitable scale.
3. 
Elevations on profiles and sections or as indicated on plans shall be City datum or U.S.G.S. datum. At least two (2) permanent bench marks in the vicinity of each project shall be noted on the first drawing of each project and their location and elevation shall be clearly defined.
4. 
The top of each plan shall be either north or east and a north arrow should be used. The stationing on street plans and profiles may be either from the left to right or from right to left, but on drainage plans the stationing shall always begin at the low point.
5. 
When more than one (1) drawing is involved in one (1) project, an overlap of not less than one hundred (100) feet should be provided. Each project shall show at least fifty (50) feet of topography on each side. All existing topography and any proposed changes, including utilities, telephone installations and so forth shall be shown on the plans and profile.
6. 
Revisions to drawings shall be indicated above the title block and shall show the nature of the revision and the date made.
7. 
Plans shall make consistent use of standard symbols throughout the plan set. The cover sheet shall include a legend of all symbols used. Symbols shall not duplicate and shall be clear on their indication. Topography for which symbols are not standardized shall be indicated and named on plans and profiles. In utilizing the standard symbols for engineering plans, all existing utilities, telephone installations, storm sewers, pavements, curbs, inlets and culverts and so forth shall be shown with a broken line; proposed facilities with a solid line; land, lot and property lines to be shown with a slightly lighter solid line. Easements shall be shown and, if known, the book and page number of the recording.
8. 
The requirements outlined in these standards are only minimum requirements. When unusual subsoil or drainage conditions are suspected an investigation should be made and a special design prepared in line with good engineering practice.
9. 
Each plan should indicate the owner or subdivider for whom improvements are to be constructed.
10. 
Lot lines and dimensions shall be shown where applicable.
[Ord. No. 06-05-01 §703, 5-9-2006]
Five (5) sets of the engineering construction plans for public works improvements shall be submitted to the City. After approval by the City Engineer, one (1) set of the engineering plans will be retained by the contractor on the job site.
[Ord. No. 06-05-01 §704, 5-9-2006]
Prior to the start of construction or installation of any infrastructure improvements required pursuant to this Chapter, a pre-construction conference shall be held with the developer, the contractor(s) responsible for installation of the infrastructure improvement, a representative from the Greene County Public Water Supply District No. 5, City Inspector, Mayor and the City Engineer. The developer shall be responsible for contacting the City Clerk to schedule the pre-construction conference. The conference shall be held to ensure that all applicable provisions of this Chapter or other applicable rule or regulation have or will be met, that permits have been obtained and that questions regarding the installation of improvements are resolved.
[Ord. No. 06-05-01 §705, 5-9-2006]
A. 
Periodic inspections shall be required during construction work. These inspection requirements are outlined in the individual standards for streets, sidewalks, drainage or other public improvements.
B. 
The developer shall provide inspection services for all public works improvements that will be dedicated to the City of Fair Grove. These inspections shall be performed by or under the direct supervision of the developer's engineer who shall be registered in the State of Missouri. Inspections shall be of sufficient frequency to enable the developer's engineer to provide to the City of Fair Grove a sealed certification that the improvements were constructed in accordance with the approved engineering design plans or in accordance with approved as-built plans. Verification may be made by the City Engineer and all fees charged back to developer.
C. 
The developer shall also submit copies of field inspection reports and testing results in sufficient detail to record the history of the entire installation, testing and deviations from the approved engineering design plans. These reports shall bear the seal of an engineer registered in the State of Missouri. The developer shall submit to the City copies of all reports that are required to be submitted to the Missouri Department of Natural Resources.
D. 
These inspections, reports and certifications shall be the financial responsibility of the developer. In no case shall the presence of City personnel during any part of the construction and testing constitute acceptance by the City of Fair Grove or a substitute for on-site observation by the developer's engineer.
E. 
Unless otherwise specified in any of the regulations contained in this Chapter, the developer shall notify the City a minimum of twenty-four (24) hours prior to any testing of public improvements. If the City requests to be present during any phase of construction and testing and is not notified by the developer, the developer shall uncover concealed work or retest any materials or systems for the City's personnel to observe.
F. 
The developer shall deliver three (3) sets of as-built plans to the City. These plans shall include all public works improvements that will be dedicated to the City and all stormwater facilities improvements. The developer shall also submit these drawings in an electronic format acceptable to the City.
[Ord. No. 06-05-01 §706, 5-9-2006]
A. 
A minimum of (1) temporary construction entrance is required at each site. Additional temporary entrances may be provided if approved by the City.
B. 
Only construction entrances designated on the sediment and erosion control plan may be used. The location of each construction entrance shall be shown on the plan. Barricades shall be maintained if necessary to prevent access at other points until construction is complete.
C. 
Construction entrances shall be constructed of one and one-half (1½) inches crushed limestone meeting the following specifications:
1. 
Minimum thickness of crushed limestone surface shall be six (6) inches. Additional two (2) inch lifts of crushed limestone shall be added at the discretion of the City if the surface of the initial construction drive deteriorates or becomes too muddy to be effective.
2. 
Construction entrances shall be a minimum of twenty five (25) feet wide and fifty (50) feet long.
3. 
In locations where an existing drive or street extends at least fifty (50) feet into the site, the existing drive or street may be designated as the construction entrance and construction of a new gravel entrance is not required, unless job conditions warrant as determined by the City.
[Ord. No. 06-05-01 §707, 5-9-2006]
A. 
Detailed Specifications. All streets, curb and gutter and sidewalks shall be constructed in conformance with the Greene County Design Standards for Public Road Improvements, adopted June 23, 1980, and last amended in April 1, 2002.
B. 
Right-Of-Way And Pavement Widths. Right-of-way and pavement widths for roads shall be provided in accordance with the provisions of Article VI, Section 410.400(D).
