[Ord. No. 11-2I 118 §1, 5-12-2016]
A.
This Section presents general guidelines for drawings for public
improvements. Additional requirements for drawing submissions are
presented in some of the subsequent Chapters, as needed for the specific
type of project being addressed.
1.
All engineering drawings shall be of uniform size, twenty-two
(22) inches by thirty-four (34) inches. The plan sheet shall have
a City of Farmington standard title block on the lower right corner
of the sheet. Consultants shall place their own title block above
or to the left of the City title block. The registration seal of the
responsible professional engineer, licensed in the State of Missouri,
shall be placed in the lower right-hand corner of each sheet of plans.
a.
Drawing scale. Engineering plans and profiles
shall be prepared on a scale of one (1) inch equals forty (40) feet
horizontal and one (1) inch equals four (4) feet vertical or an approved
scale easily plotted at half scale. When requirements for detail necessitates
a larger scale, a horizontal scale of one (1) inch equals twenty (20)
feet and one (1) inch equals four (4) feet vertical, may be used.
Drainage area maps, construction details, cross sections, and contour
maps shall be drawn to a scale suitable to show complete detail.
b.
Elevation datum. Elevations for profiles and
cross-sections, or at particular locations indicated on plans shall
be U.S.G.S. datum. At least two (2) permanent bench marks in the vicinity
of each project shall be noted on the first plan sheet of each project,
and their location and elevation shall be clearly defined.
c.
Stationing and north arrow. The top of each
plan sheet shall be either north or east, and a standard north arrow
should be used. The stationing on street plans and profiles shall
be from left to right, but on drainage, sanitary sewer, and storm
sewer plans, the stationing shall always begin at the low point.
d.
Topography. When more than one (1) drawing
sheet is required for a project, an overlap of not less than fifty
(50) feet shall be provided. Each project shall show at least fifty
(50) feet of topography on all sides of the project limits. Subdivision
plans shall show at least fifty (50) feet of topography outside the
plat limits. All existing topography and any proposed changes, including
utilities, telephone installations, etc., shall be shown on both the
plan and profile portion of the drawing.
e.
Revisions to drawings. Revisions to drawings
shall be noted on the plan above the title block and shall show the
nature of the revision and the date made. Revisions do not need to
be tracked until after the plans have been approved the first time.
f.
Symbols. Typical symbols used in the preparation
of engineering drawings shall be indicated and named on the plan and
profile sheet. In utilizing the standard symbols for engineering plans,
all existing utilities, telephone installations, sanitary and storm
sewers, pavements, curbs, inlets, and culverts, etc., 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.
All easements must be shown, as well as the book and page number,
if recorded.
g.
Minimum requirements. It shall be understood
that the requirements outlined in these standards are minimum requirements
and shall be applied when conditions, design criteria, and materials
conform to the City specifications. When unusual subsoil or drainage
conditions are encountered, an investigation should be made and a
special design prepared in conformance with good engineering practice.
h.
Owner's name. The title sheet must indicate
the owner's name and address for whom the improvements are to be constructed.
For subdivision developments, the name of the subdivision shall be
included along with the owner's information.
i.
Dimensions. Lot lines, dimensions, and subdivision
name shall be shown where applicable.
j.
Cover sheet. All plans shall have a cover sheet
showing the general location of the project in relation to the Farmington
City street system. The cover sheet shall show the complete project
area to a scale of one (1) inch equals one hundred (100) feet or an
appropriate scale for small projects.
[Ord. No. 11-2I 118 §1, 5-12-2016]
A.
Original Submission. Two (2) sets of prints of the
engineering construction plans for streets, stormwater systems, water
main, sanitary sewer, and storm sewer shall be submitted to the Public
Works Department for approval. All other utilities must be contacted
as necessary.
B.
Future Submissions. After the first submission of
engineering plans, all future submissions shall consist of two (2)
sets of plans to the Public Works Department. Projects involving State
highways will require the approval of the Missouri Highway and Transportation
Department.
C.
Originals. After final approval of the plans, the
original drawings shall be brought for filing in the Public Works
office. The originals shall not be submitted until they are approved.
After filing, the original drawings shall become the property of the
City of Farmington.
D.
Drawings On File. Original drawings on file in the
Public Works office may be checked out for revisions by the project
engineer, only with approval of the Public Works Director. Prior to
checking out the drawings, a redlined print showing the proposed revisions
must be submitted for approval. Drawings must be returned within one
(1) week. All revisions must be approved by the Public Works Director
prior to construction.
[Ord. No. 11-2I 118 §1, 5-12-2016]
A.
After plans have been approved by the City, it is the applicant's
responsibility to pay all necessary fees prior to construction.
B.
A detailed copy of the construction bid, showing unit costs for all
items included in the contract, and showing the total contract value,
must accompany the fee.
C.
No construction of public facilities shall be permitted prior to
approval and filing of the plans and/or paying of fees. In addition,
twenty-four-hour notification must be given to the Public Works office
prior to the commencement of any work on public facilities. No street
construction will be permitted prior to completion of construction
of all private and/or public utilities within the street footprint.
