| 05/04/2023 | 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-0423-00198 1. The drainage report proposes that there will be a flood wall on the southeast corner of the property, near the intersection of Fair and Park. In the site plans, Note 23 calls out the wall in this area as a masonry wall and refers to the architectural plans. The architectural plans indicate in detail 23 that the taller portions of the wall have a perforated drain block at the base of the wall. Please clarify in the plans whether or not the perimeter wall is flood vented at the southeast corner and show that the wall will be stabilized to adequately withstand the analyzed 2-foot potential flood wall scour depth. 2. Use of a dry well as a retention solution must be approved by the floodplain administrator. Please contact Stephen Blood at stephen.blood@tucsonaz.gov for approval and include his approval in your next submittal. 3. Specify the steepness of the side slopes in the proposed channel. If the side slopes are steeper than 3V:1H, the side slopes must be stabilized. 4. Maximize water harvesting to landscaped islands and water harvesting areas through use of curb cuts and flush curbs. Indicate all proposed curb cuts in the site plan. 5.

| 04/10/2023 | Site Landscape | REQUIRES RESUBMIT | CDRC TRANSMITTAL TO: Review Coordinator FROM: Anne Warner, RLA PDSD Landscape/Native Plant Preservation Section PROJECT: Southside Public Safety Complex ACTIVITY NO: TD-DEV-0423-00198 Address: 4410 S Park Ave Existing Use: Government use Proposed Use: Government use TRANSMITTAL DATE: April 10, 2023 DUE DATE: 31 days from the above date COMMENTS: Please resubmit revised drawings along with a detailed response letter, which states how all Landscape Review Section comments were addressed. 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. General Note - UDC 2-10.4.1 Identification and Descriptive Data - All improvements and site information, such as adjacent rights-of-way and property lines, shown on the landscape plan will be identical in size and location to those shown on the base plan (site plan or tentative plat). Should amendments be required to the base plan through the review process, the same amendments will be made to the landscape plan which will then be resubmitted along with the base plan. 1. The Unified Development Code (UDC) requires all new development or an expansion of an existing development 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, which states any change in design or land use requires a new review and approval process for the landscape plan. 2. A Commercial Rainwater Harvesting plan is required. Multi-family projects are commercial developments. UDC Technical Standards Manual – Section 4-01.0.0. and Section 5-01.0.0 Landscaping and Screening. Demonstrate how water harvesting is being maximized. 3. Engineer & LA – Show on grading plans; top and bottom elevations of all basins, including water harvesting infiltration areas, side slopes, and basin depth. 4. Engineer & LA comment - The tables 2.2 and 2.3, pages 12-13 in the PCRFCD Manuel can be used in lieu of the Water Budget Table, the only thing that is missing is water demand for plants, which can be added. Make sure units match. Show how First Flush Volumes relate to plant water demands. 5. The water harvesting plan is difficult to read, please add flow arrows and labels, remove existing contours for clarity. No WHIA are identified on the plan. 6. Engineer & LA comment The grading plan and water harvesting plan 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. 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 infiltration and water harvesting. All landscape areas should be included within infiltration areas. d. UDC section 7.6.6.C requires the use of all runoff to supplement irrigation. Show how this is attained. e. Show rooftop drainage patterns and show how they are incorporated into the water harvesting calculations. f. Water harvesting areas should be depressed between 6 and 9 inches. These areas can be counted toward first flush retention requirements. g. Consider using Water Harvesting Infiltration Areas to offset the size of a retention/detention basin. 7. The following information will be provided on the Water Harvesting Plan. UDC Tech. Manual 4-01.3.2. a. How monthly rainfall and irrigation data will be obtained and recorded; b. Soil pretreatment techniques, locations; c. Maintenance notes; and, d. Monitoring and Annual Reporting Requirements. 8. The following maintenance requirements should be addressed on the Water Harvesting Plan and within the required Annual Monitoring Report (UDC Tech Manual 4-01-5.1); a. Periodically inspect and clean gutters, leaf screens, and filters. Inspect systems following heavy rains to check for leaks and/or overflow problems. Periodically inspect and maintain Water Harvesting Infiltration Areas to ensure proper infiltration, overflow, and erosion control. Repair and correct problems. b. Ensure proper functioning of Water Harvesting Systems, by periodically inspecting and maintaining sub-watershed surfaces and infrastructure associated with the system such as French drains, spillways, scuppers, and other elements. Repair and correct problems as needed. 9. Monitoring - UDC Tech Manual – 4-01-61, please add these notes to the Water Harvesting Plan; a. Monitoring of water use and related information at the site shall be the responsibility of the property owner. Monitoring is required to verify compliance with the approved Water Harvesting Plan. Monitoring data shall be compiled, along with other necessary information, into an annual report to be submitted to the city by January 30 of each year. b. Monthly rainfall shall be monitored using an on-site rain gauge, or a monthly rainfall estimate shall be developed using data from the closest available rain gauge recorded at www.rainlog.org. c. Annual reporting requirements as stated in UDC 4.01-6.2 10. Engineer & LA comment - The landscape, water harvesting, and grading plans must match. 11. Engineer & LA comment - Identify curb inlets/splash pads to landscape areas on grading and water harvesting plans. 12. Please provide all landscape calculations on the landscape plan, including required trees for the parking areas, Admin. Manual 2-10-4.2.A.2.c and landscape borders, UDC Technical Standards 2-10.4.2.f & g. 13.

Table 7.6.4-1- Requires 30” screen adjacent to parking areas along MS&R streets, 5’ screen along non-MS&R streets, adjacent to residential or office uses, a 5’ wall is required. 16. Consider using an organic groundcover such as mulch instead of d.g. 17. 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, and the requirement is 1 tree per 4 parking spaces; 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 18. Identify the type of irrigation controller with soil moisture gauge, tensiometer, weather station and/or evaportranspiration data. UDC Tech Standards 4-01.4.A. 19.
