| Site Landscape | REVIEW COMPLETED | CDRC TRANSMITTAL PROJECT: CITIZENS TRANSFER & STORAGE ACTIVITY NO. T22PRE0249 ADDRESS/PARCEL: 1501 E METRIC PL/132-13-0260 ZONING: I-1 This plan has been reviewed for compliance with applicable development criteria in the City of Tucson Unified Development Code (UDC) Administrative Manual (AM) Section 2-11 and Technical Manual (TM) Section for landscape, native plants and water harvesting. 1. A NPPO is required per UDC 7.7.3-B. The NPPO is intended to encourage preservation in place of healthy native plants through sensitive site design that minimizes the disruption of areas within the site containing plants while allowing for salvage and transplantation of plants on the site that are likely to survive. A Native Plant Preservation Plan, Section 7.7.4, is required to be submitted or approved or a request for an exception from the Native Plant Preservation requirements approved in accordance with Sections 7.7.3.D.3 & .4 of the UDC and Admin. Manual Section 2-11.0.0 prior to Grading Plan approval. 2. A landscape plan is required per 7.6.2.B.1-b . The Unified Development Code (UDC) requires all new development or an expansion of greater than 25% of an existing development to submit a landscape plan, UDC 7.6.2. Preparation of the landscape plan shall adhere to UDC 7.6.4 and Administrative Manual 2-10. 3. Ensure the required number of trees is in all vehicular parking areas (1 tree: 6-8 parking spaces) per UDC 7.6.4.B.1. Placing trees along the edge of a parking area or at the ends of parking row does not meet the intent of the UDC. All spaces within 40’ of a tree is only one of the requirements. The intent is to provide as much shade on the asphalt as possible (TSM 5-01.3.2), and the requirement is 1 tree per 6-8 parking spaces; trees are expected to be placed within the parking area itself to provide shade on asphalt. Trees are to be distributed evenly throughout the parking area, UDC 7.6.4.1.B.1, UDC Technical Standards Manual 5-01-.3.2 and UDC 7.6.4.B.1.a. 4. A street landscape border as well as a 5’ screen is required on S Wall St & E Metric Pl. per UDC 7.6.4.C-2 and Table 7.6.4-1 5. One canopy tree is required every 33 linear feet in the landscape border. UDC 7.6.4C-1.a 6. Street landscape borders must be a minimum of 10’ wide as measured from the street property line. UDC 7.6.4.2.a 7. Street landscape borders must be covered with an appropriate inorganic ground cover, such as decomposed granite. UDC 7.6.4.2.d 8. 50% or more of the area of the street landscape border must be covered with shrubs or vegetative ground cover. UDC 7.6.4.e 9. All landscape plans shall incorporate water conserving design as defined in UDC Section 7.6.6, Use of Water, and as described in the Technical Standards Manual 5.01-5.11. 10. The Landscape Plan should match the Commercial Rainwater Harvesting Plan as well as the Grading Plan. Landscape Plan must have spot elevations in the detention/retention areas as well as in all water harvesting areas in the Landscape Plan. 11. A Commercial Rainwater Harvesting plan is required per UDC Technical Standards Manual – Section 4-01.3.0. and Section 5-01.0.0 Landscaping and Screening. Adherence to the Low Impact Development Standards outlined in Section 5 of the PCRFCD Design Standards for Stormwater Detention and Retention is required and shall work in conjunction with the Commercial Rainwater Harvesting design. Using Low Impact Development design and water harvesting provides critical basin detention and first flush retention for all new development and impervious area. The newly adopted Detention/Retention Manual can be found: https://webcms.pima.gov/UserFiles/Servers/Server_6/File/Government/Flood%20Control/Rules%20and%20Procedures/Stormwater%20Detention-Retention/dssdr-final-201406-manual.pdf With CoT edits to the manual are found at: https://www.tucsonaz.gov/files/pdsd/codes/Detention_Retention_Manual_Tech_Standards_Amemdments.pdf If you have any questions about these comments, I can be reached at Matthew.Carlton@tucsonaz.gov or 520-837-4988 |
