| 10/21/2025 | Site Engineering Standard | REQUIRES RESUBMIT | 1. See previous comment 1 – A new drainage report was not submitted, and the original version doesn’t address how the recycled concrete material will function as a detention basin. Also, the storage volume is not calculated in the report. Please also provide how you are justifying the 8” open graded crushed concrete has a minimum of 30% voids. Uniform angular rock is usually around 40%. Recycled crushed concrete won’t be uniform and full of fines. 2. If the detention/retention basin is to be the vehicle use area for the site, include in the drainage report how the basin is to be maintained once compacted and silted in. 3. Include in the drainage report the discussion of the drain down time for the basin, infiltration rates, and how fast the site will dry out to prevent the site from harboring mosquitoes. 4. I reached out to Environmental Services for not proposing refuse collection and they responded - TSM 8-01.0 requires all developments to include provisions for waste storage and collection. The rationale for not requiring it is case by case. The intent of the code is to ensure all developments support for the basic needs of waste collection and storage. At minimum the development should include provisions for a single enclosure to support for this potential need. Stephen Blood (520) 837-4958 Stephen.blood@tucsonaz.gov |

| 10/17/2025 | Site Landscape Standard | REQUIRES RESUBMIT | CDRC TRANSMITTAL PLANNING AND DEVELOPMENT SERVICES DEPARTMENT REVIEWER: CHAD KELLER, RLA SITE LANDSCAPE/NATIVE PLANT PRESERVATION SECTION PROJECT: HYBRID SELF-STORAGE FACILITY WITH 182 MODULAR STORAGE UNITS -- SITE IMPROVEMENTS WILL INCLUDE GRADING AND ACCESS DRIVES ACTIVITY NO: TD-DEV-0525-00143 ADDRESS: 6444 S FONTANA AV ZONING: C-2 COMMERCIAL ZONE LAND USE: MULTIUNIT STORAGE FACILITY REVIEW 3 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. Please resubmit revised drawings along with a detailed response letter, which states how all of the Site Landscape and NPPO Section review comments have been addressed. SITE LANDSCAPE/NPPO SECTION COMMENTS: 1. It is stated on the planting plan that spot elevation for the depressed street landscape borders can be found on sheet 5 (grading plan). Spot elevations have not been provided on sheet 5, the grading plan. Update the plan set to include the spot elevations. Or include a leader callout on the planting plan that refers to the screen section detail on sheet L25-001. The detail gives sufficient information on how to construct the basin. If the plant placement is added to the cross section, grayed back, that would make the basin shape and planting concept very simple to understand. 2. There is a thick dashed line included on the irrigation plan with no callout to the legend as to what it is. It would be more helpful if the plant material shown on the planting plan is also included on the irrigation plan, grayed back, rather than the thick dashed black line. Thank you.
