Relevant Project Experience
Breen Park Site Development
In early 2015, MTC Properties contracted ISE to
complete the Breen Park project which included the
design for roadway improvement, on-lot design, off-
road parking design, sidewalks, pavement, drainage,
and recreational area. As seen in Figure 1, this park
included two soccer fields (Field A and B), as well as
small golf field (Field C). ISE served well to the
community and environment by implementing porous
pavement, low impact development (LID) that reduced
stormwater impact to the runoff water from roads and
sidewalks.
Project highlight: Platinum LEED project.
The Spot Retail Development
In 2014, ISE designed a retail development on a
12 acre lot located in Emeryville, which currently
provides business, retail, and restaurant space.
This development is now known as The Spot,
shown in Figure 2. In addition to preliminary
planning, ISE developed major aspects of the
site, including parking area, landscaping, and
utilities. Soil conditions in the area were a
consistent challenge, as East Bay soils are
typically clayey or mud-like fabrics prone to
liquefaction. This significantly affected the
pavement design process. ISE worked with other
firms to rectify the issue, and was able to design
pavement for walkways and the parking area.
Project highlight: Innovative pavement design.
Alhambra Dental Plaza
In 2011, ISE developed a modern site layout for
Alhambra Dental Plaza in Sacramento. This project
required design for preliminary grading, major
sewage, storm drain and water systems,
underground piping, overhead lighting, property
landscape design, street entrances and parking
design. This project required coordination with
Sacramento County for appropriate permitting. ISE
prepared mapping and construction staking for each
stage of the project.
Project highlight: Accessibility and Efficient use of
lot area.

Project Understanding and Approach
Introduction
ISE understands MTC Properties’ desire to create efficient and eco-friendly site improvements for the
Sacramento County Region. Currently the site is undeveloped agricultural land, and this project will
provide more accessible dental health services for Elk Grove’s southern inhabitants. Additionally, this
project will coincide with multiple neighboring site development projects helping to enrich the
Sacramento community.
In order to present a complete and environmentally sound site design, ISE will address all pertinent
concerns with the purpose of integrating Low-Impact Development (LID) in equilibrium with the
maximum usage of the property. These environmental concerns will be a primary guide for decision
making throughout the design process. The resulting site design will offer a new dental office with onsite
parking, walkways, lighting, and landscaping. Strategic landscaping design will be used to provide an
aesthetically pleasing layout that also lends to the environmental needs.
Background
The parcel is located in Elk Grove, CA, at the intersection of B Drive and D Drive. It covers approximately
3.5 acres of land with a greenway running along the east property line and a neighboring parcel along
the north property line. Utility lines exists along B and D Drive. This will play a key role in utility
coordination, along with utilizing the approximately 0.5% grade along the west property line. There is
currently no shading or lighting on-site, therefore is necessary to assess the appropriate demands of this
location.
Approach
Requirements and standards for this project are set by the Sacramento Zoning Code Chapter 5,
Sacramento Region Stormwater Quality Design Manual (May 2014), 2013 California Building Code
Chapter 11B and 2010 ADA Standards for Accessible Design. After reviewing the above documents,
studying the project area and utilizing other relevant documents, ISE has identified several challenges
described below:
Site Layout -
ISE will design a parking lot layout by utilizing the maximum amount of space present. Possible
constraints for this project are allotting appropriate footprints for the building structure, parking, and
landscaping. To minimize the building, parking, and landscaping footprints of the proposed site layout,
ISE will investigate multiple site characteristics to evaluate solutions of the project’s defined challenges.
Solutions pertaining to the building footprint include building location, size, and coordination with
existing utilities. Solutions pertaining to the parking footprint include minimized land use for the parking
area, carpool and shared parking implementation, alternative forms of concrete, and stormwater runoff.
Solutions pertaining to the landscape footprint include utilizing native and diverse plant species,
minimizing impervious surfaces, and designing landscaping for stormwater management and drainage.
7
Environmental Concerns -
As a company that prides itself on eco-friendly and efficient site design, ISE will seek to optimize
mitigation of environmental effects while maximizing the site usage. To minimize the adverse
environmental effects of this site development, ISE will implement LID principles to integrate drainage
concepts into landscape design. This will include the use of existing slopes and channels, pervious
pavement design, and runoff treatment areas such as soil and vegetation basins.
ISE has identified the presence of the Elderberry Bush (see Figure 4) which is home to the threatened
Longhorn Beetle Species (see Figure 5). This introduces some possible constraints to the site design.
Investigation of the Longhorn Beetle’s presence will determine what environmental impact and
mitigation efforts will be required to relocate the Elderberry shrubs according to Table 1 of the U.S. Fish
and Wildlife Service Conservation Guidelines. Collaboration with biologists and law enforcement
personnel from the California Department of Fish and Game and the Wildlife Conservation Service will
be required to monitor the survival of the shrub and beetle during construction and for 1 year after the
project ends.
ADA Compliance-
The site design will allow proper accessibility to all areas of the property per 2010 ADA Standards for
Accessible Design. This will require a minimum area dedicated to ADA usage, however challenges may
occur when designing the parking layout with respect to the adjacent development due north of the
project. ADA requirements include but are not limited to, parking space requirements, parking
accessibility, and building accessibility. In general, the parking area will be designed with the
consideration of minimizing its footprint. To assure compliance with ADA Standards, designating ADA
parking spaces will be a top priority when producing the parking lot layout. The parking area will also be
designed without compromising proper access to the building.

  • 8. 5 Relevant Project Experience Breen Park Site Development In early 2015, MTC Properties contracted ISE to complete the Breen Park project which included the design for roadway improvement, on-lot design, off- road parking design, sidewalks, pavement, drainage, and recreational area. As seen in Figure 1, this park included two soccer fields (Field A and B), as well as small golf field (Field C). ISE served well to the community and environment by implementing porous pavement, low impact development (LID) that reduced stormwater impact to the runoff water from roads and sidewalks. Project highlight: Platinum LEED project. The Spot Retail Development In 2014, ISE designed a retail development on a 12 acre lot located in Emeryville, which currently provides business, retail, and restaurant space. This development is now known as The Spot, shown in Figure 2. In addition to preliminary planning, ISE developed major aspects of the site, including parking area, landscaping, and utilities. Soil conditions in the area were a consistent challenge, as East Bay soils are typically clayey or mud-like fabrics prone to liquefaction. This significantly affected the pavement design process. ISE worked with other firms to rectify the issue, and was able to design pavement for walkways and the parking area. Project highlight: Innovative pavement design. Alhambra Dental Plaza In 2011, ISE developed a modern site layout for Alhambra Dental Plaza in Sacramento. This project required design for preliminary grading, major sewage, storm drain and water systems, underground piping, overhead lighting, property landscape design, street entrances and parking design. This project required coordination with Sacramento County for appropriate permitting. ISE prepared mapping and construction staking for each stage of the project. Project highlight: Accessibility and Efficient use of lot area. Figure 1 - Breen Park Site Layout Figure 2 - The Spot Plaza Figure 3 - Alhambra Dental Office Entry
  • 9. 6 Project Understanding and Approach Introduction ISE understands MTC Properties’ desire to create efficient and eco-friendly site improvements for the Sacramento County Region. Currently the site is undeveloped agricultural land, and this project will provide more accessible dental health services for Elk Grove’s southern inhabitants. Additionally, this project will coincide with multiple neighboring site development projects helping to enrich the Sacramento community. In order to present a complete and environmentally sound site design, ISE will address all pertinent concerns with the purpose of integrating Low-Impact Development (LID) in equilibrium with the maximum usage of the property. These environmental concerns will be a primary guide for decision making throughout the design process. The resulting site design will offer a new dental office with onsite parking, walkways, lighting, and landscaping. Strategic landscaping design will be used to provide an aesthetically pleasing layout that also lends to the environmental needs. Background The parcel is located in Elk Grove, CA, at the intersection of B Drive and D Drive. It covers approximately 3.5 acres of land with a greenway running along the east property line and a neighboring parcel along the north property line. Utility lines exists along B and D Drive. This will play a key role in utility coordination, along with utilizing the approximately 0.5% grade along the west property line. There is currently no shading or lighting on-site, therefore is necessary to assess the appropriate demands of this location. Approach Requirements and standards for this project are set by the Sacramento Zoning Code Chapter 5, Sacramento Region Stormwater Quality Design Manual (May 2014), 2013 California Building Code Chapter 11B and 2010 ADA Standards for Accessible Design. After reviewing the above documents, studying the project area and utilizing other relevant documents, ISE has identified several challenges described below: Site Layout - ISE will design a parking lot layout by utilizing the maximum amount of space present. Possible constraints for this project are allotting appropriate footprints for the building structure, parking, and landscaping. To minimize the building, parking, and landscaping footprints of the proposed site layout, ISE will investigate multiple site characteristics to evaluate solutions of the project’s defined challenges. Solutions pertaining to the building footprint include building location, size, and coordination with existing utilities. Solutions pertaining to the parking footprint include minimized land use for the parking area, carpool and shared parking implementation, alternative forms of concrete, and stormwater runoff. Solutions pertaining to the landscape footprint include utilizing native and diverse plant species, minimizing impervious surfaces, and designing landscaping for stormwater management and drainage.
  • 10. 7 Environmental Concerns - As a company that prides itself on eco-friendly and efficient site design, ISE will seek to optimize mitigation of environmental effects while maximizing the site usage. To minimize the adverse environmental effects of this site development, ISE will implement LID principles to integrate drainage concepts into landscape design. This will include the use of existing slopes and channels, pervious pavement design, and runoff treatment areas such as soil and vegetation basins. ISE has identified the presence of the Elderberry Bush (see Figure 4) which is home to the threatened Longhorn Beetle Species (see Figure 5). This introduces some possible constraints to the site design. Investigation of the Longhorn Beetle’s presence will determine what environmental impact and mitigation efforts will be required to relocate the Elderberry shrubs according to Table 1 of the U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service Conservation Guidelines. Collaboration with biologists and law enforcement personnel from the California Department of Fish and Game and the Wildlife Conservation Service will be required to monitor the survival of the shrub and beetle during construction and for 1 year after the project ends. ADA Compliance- The site design will allow proper accessibility to all areas of the property per 2010 ADA Standards for Accessible Design. This will require a minimum area dedicated to ADA usage, however challenges may occur when designing the parking layout with respect to the adjacent development due north of the project. ADA requirements include but are not limited to, parking space requirements, parking accessibility, and building accessibility. In general, the parking area will be designed with the consideration of minimizing its footprint. To assure compliance with ADA Standards, designating ADA parking spaces will be a top priority when producing the parking lot layout. The parking area will also be designed without compromising proper access to the building. Figure 5 – Longhorn BeetleFigure 4 – Elderberry Bush
