Turning Dirt - Codes Committee Update
A draft guideline for soil and material testing final report has been prepared and distributed for review and comment. Please provide any comments to Everett Morrow eem@lesc.com by August 25. This will be discussed at the September 12th Horizontal Codes meeting and then Hillsborough County will issue a technical bulletin to make the guidelines a part of the technical manual. Click Here to Review Guidelines.
Joe Gross with Hillsborough County will be working with his staff to provide guidelines for arborist reports. The goal is to provide some standardization of information required in the report and possibly a standard format for tree surveys.
Diana Ramirez is over the Public Works review team for development projects. She will be reviewing comments and determining which projects need to be reviewed by Public Works. Public Works will be developing guidelines on when a Public Works review is required for development projects.
Currently there are two items that Hillsborough County is working on which will require an amendment to the LDC. The first is to allow more than 10,000 cubic yards of material to be removed from a site without a land excavation permit and the second is to clarify that no wetland setback is required when a wetland impact occurs. TBBA is working with Hillsborough County on the proposed changes. It is anticipated that the LDC changes will approved in mid-2017.
At the industry meeting on August 4, Public Works stated that medians in collector roads must be included as part of the right of way and cannot be a separate tract. If a separate tract is required, it must be discussed with Mike Williams in advance and noted on the construction plans.
