If grading for sidewalks during construction will damage, adversely impact or remove
desirable natural features, trees etc., the Owner/Developer may request a variance
from the Department of Watershed Protection and Development Services for the realignment
of the sidewalk. The Consulting Engineer shall submit a plan which includes detailed
grading, elevation and alignment information in the vicinity of natural features,
shall certify that no utility lines, inlets, meters or castings will be affected and
request an appropriate change in the Work.
When the plan requires an easement outside of public right of way and the Department
of Watershed Protection and Development Services concurs with the request for a waiver,
the Consulting Engineer shall provide an easement signed by the Owner/Developer dedicating
an easement to the public. The dedication document will be accompanied by a metes
and bounds description, certified by a Licensed Professional Land Surveyor Registered
in the State of Texas, which is ready for recording. Submittal of this instrument
is required before final acceptance can be issued by the City.
The Consulting Engineer shall record all sidewalk variances and/or waivers on reproducible
Record Drawings and submit the drawings to the Department of Public Works as part
of the as-built Drawings.
