AHRC Phase 2 moves toward bid publication after permit review; civil plans require several corrections
Summary
Parks & Recreation Director J.C. Kennedy said permits for AHRC Phase 2 were submitted Sept. 29, 2025, and public works review comments (Jan. 30) require the civil plans to reference CAWH standard plan 8-04-C, correct pond dimensions used in calculations, specify bio‑swale planting, and address tree locations before the project can be published for bid.
Parks & Recreation Director J.C. Kennedy told the Airway Heights Park Advisory Board that the AHRC Phase 2 project is moving toward publication for bids after permitting reviews identified technical corrections needed on the civil plans.
"Permits were submitted to the Building & Planning Department on Sept. 29, 2025," Kennedy said. He reported that the Public Works Department provided review comments on Jan. 30, 2026, and that SPVV Landscape Architects forwarded those comments to the civil engineer to make corrections.
Public Works asked that the civil plans reference CAWH standard plan 8-04-C for sidewalk joints and the Type A curb detail, and that any incorrect curb details be removed. Reviewers also requested that the plans indicate the finished surface elevation of the upper pond so there is a 6‑inch clearance between the pond bottom and the new berm.
The drainage report in Appendix 3 lists the upper basin as 25 feet by 100 feet, but plan measurements show the pond bottom dimensions to be approximately 10–17 feet wide and about 175 feet long; reviewers asked staff to update the treatment calculations to reflect the actual pond size. Reviewers further asked that the civil plans specify plant species to be used in the bio‑swale and either remove or relocate trees proposed on bio‑swale side slopes that would be planted below the berm, or explicitly include those trees in stormwater calculations.
Kennedy said those corrections are being routed back through the project engineer; once the civil plans reflect the requested changes the city will be closer to publishing the project for bid.
