| 05/09/2023 | Site Engineering | REQUIRES RESUBMIT | Tucson codes and ordinances can be found online at https://codelibrary.amlegal.com/codes/tucson/latest/overview The Stormwater Detention-Retention Manual can be found online at https://www.tucsonaz.gov/files/pdsd/updated-retention-detention-manual/updated-retention-detention-manual.pdf TD-DEV-0123-00115 1. From recent clarification from Environmental Services per TSM section 8, although recycling service isn’t required the site needs to provide at minimum the enclosure space for both solid waste and recycling. A single enclosure won’t be sufficient and a double enclosure or additional single enclosures will be needed to meet this requirement. It is also important to point out per TSM section 8-01.4.I - required parking may be reduced for existing development when solid waste and recycling enclosures are provided. 2. Show a 14-foot by 40-foot clear space in front of each proposed dumpster to comply with waste access and maneuverability requirements in TSM 8-01.5.3 B. 3. Show locations of drainage spouts on each building. Ensure that roof drainage from every building is routed under or around sidewalks and does not flow over sidewalks. 4. Ensure any traffic comments regarding potential sidewalk along Houghton Rd are addressed 5. Provide a detail for the retaining wall along the portion Houghton Rd that is proposed in the Drainage Report. Show the proposed retaining wall on the site plan. 6. Underground water storage must be approved by PDSD. Contact Stephen Blood to receive approval for use of underground storage for this particular project and provide his approval letter with your next submittal. 7. Provide a draft of the required underground storage covenant. The covenant must be recorded before permit final approval. 8. An infiltration test for the proposed underground retention must be completed before permit issuance. 9. Provide specific maintenance procedures and schedules for the proposed underground water storage. 10. Provide approval from DTM for use of corrugated metal pipe culvert in ROW, generally culverts must be constructed of concrete. 11. Culvert should be designed following a process similar to Chapter 11 of the COT drainage manual to ensure backwater effects do not violate drainage/flooding requirements. Ensure this accounts for upstream discharge from the Jumping Cholla culvert and channel. Please contact DTM for more information. 12. Show proposed inlet and outlet inverts for the culvert on grading plan, and provide a detail showing construction standards and specifications for any headwalls, piping, etc. 13. Maximize water harvesting to landscaped areas by use of flush curbs, curb cuts, and scuppers. Utilize grading to direct water into landscaped areas. 14. Provide top and bottom elevations for water harvesting basins. Lianne Evans lianne.evans@tucsonaz.gov |

Please provide 7041 registrant information, as the name and number is not listed by the AZ Tech Board of Registration. 2. Sheet 21, 36 and are not required. 3. Sheet 37 - 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, and it is required to meet all. The intent is to provide as much shade on the asphalt as possible, trees are expected to be placed within the parking area itself to mitigate the heat and glare radiated by the built environment, UDC 7.6.1.A.3. Trees are to be distributed evenly throughout the parking area, UDC 7.6.4.B.1.a., UDC Technical Standards Manual 5-01-.3.2 4. This comment was not sufficiently addressed - Please label the existing and future rights of way for all public streets, UDC 7.6.4.C.2.a. Label 30’ undisturbed Scenic Corridor on all landscape sheets. 5. The NPPO does not reflect the Scenic Corridor, nor are all the plants left undisturbed, please revise. 6. Landscape buffer calc table is incorrect, replace 10’ for 30’ for Scenic Overlay. 7. This comment was not sufficiently addressed - Please provide a summary of quantities of mitigation and TOS plants in a manner that makes it simple to cross check between landscape and NPP plans. Sort plants by species, then by low, medium, high. 8. This comment was not sufficiently addressed - Please include a detail for the backflow preventer and locking enclosure. 9. This comment was not sufficiently addressed - Provide a detail to show tree planting with root barrier adjacent to walkways, not just in ROW. 10. Engineer and LA - This comment was not sufficiently addressed - The grading/drainage and water harvesting plans do not meet the requirements of the water harvesting ordinance and technical standard. The plan doesn't show the effective use of run-off to supplement irrigation. The grading/drainage plans do not show curb openings, scuppers, catch basins (slope, top/bottom elevations). Move from “Materials Plan”. a. The catchment areas must provide water to the infiltration areas. Revise the grading to direct runoff to the landscape infiltration areas to the maximum extent possible. b. Catchment areas in the water harvesting table can only count the areas that are directed to the landscape infiltration areas. c. Clearly show the areas in each catchment area and the areas of effective landscape areas should be included within infiltration areas. d. Show rooftop drainage patterns and show how they are incorporated into the water harvesting calculations. e. Water harvesting areas should be depressed between 6 and 9 inches. These areas can be counted toward first flush retention requirements. The notes/plans indicate a .5’ depth, whereas the water budget table shows .75’. 11. This comment was not sufficiently addressed - Grading, hydrology, and landscape plans must be integrated to make maximum use of site storm water runoff for supplemental on-site irrigation purposes. The landscape, water harvesting, and grading plans must match.The Water Budget Table is incorrect, please check cell calculations.This comment was not sufficiently addressed - Provide a maintenance schedule for the landscape and irrigation for this project. UDC 2-10-4.2.A.4., please be specific.A site visit by this office is required to verify the low number of viable plants, prior to approval. 15. This comment was not adequately addressed - Please identify the project monitor, by name, address and phone number, prior to any grading activities, UDC 7.7.5. On-monitoring of all aspects of site clearing, grading, plant protection, preservation, salvage, and mitigation must be provided during project construction at the expense of the developer for all residential development that is over five acres and for all commercial and industrial development that is over one acre. The monitoring must be performed by an individual who is qualified in arid lands native plant resource identification and protection as specified in UDC Section 7.7.4.D, Professional Expertise. The monitor must provide periodic progress reports to the developer outlining the status of work accomplished and any problems encountered. A copy of these reports must be submitted to the PDSD for the project file.
