2751 E Airport Dr, Tucson, AZ. 85756 / Received August 18, 2026
To whom this may concern,
Thank you for the opportunity to comment on TD-DEV-0826-00220, 1st Submittal, a
development plan for new ground service equipment staging area and parking lot at 2751 E
Airport Dr. This development is located in the S.E. quarter of the N.E. quarter of Section 20,
Township 15S, Range 14E, of the Gila and Salt River Meridian. The development site occupies
parcel number 140-43-013F, covers approximately 3.05 ± acres, and is zoned as Heavy
Industrial Zone (I-2). The nearest major roadway intersection is East Los Reales Road and East
Airport Drive, approximately 1,200 feet to the northwest of the subject development.
This site does lie within the Tucson International Airport avigation easement requirements and
public disclosure area, FAA traffic pattern airspace, FAA Part 77 airspace, City of Tucson –
Airport Environs Overlay Zone – Airport Hazard District, City of Tucson – Airport Environs
Overlay Zone – Noise Control District 65-70, and City of Tucson – Airport Environs Overlay
Zone – Height Zone 65 – 84 Feet.
Below are the responses that the FAA Pre-Screening Tool has provided on the proposed
project.
1) Based on the information you provided, you are required to file notice with the FAA. You
must submit notice at least 45 days before the start of the proposed construction or
alteration or the date an application for a construction permit is filed, whichever is
earliest.
2) Note: If you propose construction or alteration that is subject to the licensing
requirements of the Federal Communications Commission (FCC), you must submit
notice to the FAA on or before the date that an application is filed with the FCC. Visit
FCC Licensing to learn more.
The Tucson Airport Authority is requiring a resubmittal of this project. The below conditions of
approval must be added into the revised notes of the development plan.
Conditions of approval:
1. “The applicant shall file FAA Form 7460 with the FAA at least 45 days before
construction activities begin unless FAA staff, with the Obstruction Evaluation / Airport
Airspace Analysis (OE/AAA), provides the project applicant with written communication
that filing FAA Form 7460 is not required. It is highly recommended that the applicant
file earlier than 45 days to provide the applicant with sufficient time to respond to any
concerns which are identified by the FAA. Any cranes which are used must also be
identified with a separate Form 7460. Please file Form 7460 at
https://oeaaa.faa.gov/oeaaa/external/portal.jsp”

ADDRESS: 2751 E AIRPORT DR

THE PROPOSED PLANS HAVE BEEN REVIEWED FOR COMPLIANCE WITH APPLICABLE DEVELOPMENT STANDARDS FOR SITE LANDSCAPE, NATIVE PLANTS, AND RAINWATER HARVESTING, PER-THE-CITY OF TUCSON UNIFIED DEVELOPMENT CODE (UDC), TECHNICAL STANDARDS MANUAL (TSM), AND ADMINISTRATIVE MANUAL (AM).

RESUBMIT REVISED DRAWINGS ALONG WITH A DETAILED RESPONSE LETTER, STATING HOW ALL SITE LANDSCAPE AND NPPO SECTION REVIEW COMMENTS HAVE BEEN ADDRESSED.

SITE LANDSCAPE/NPPO SECTION COMMENTS:

1. Provide a NPPO or a NPPO waiver for the areas that contain possible native plant material.

2. This expansion of parking area does not appear to be extensive enough to trigger additional planting and landscape requirements per UDC 7.6.4. Additional plant material in areas near airport runways is also a health, safety and welfare concern for bird strikes due to additional animal habitat.

3. Prior to site landscape approval, ensure that Site Zoning and Site Engineering comments are fully addressed.

4. Include the Activity Number TD-DEV-0826-00220 on all sheets in the plan set including any NPPO documentation/waiver.

Thank you.

Site Engineering Review Comments:
1. Provide the development package case number (TD-DEV-0826-00220) adjacent to the title block on each sheet of the plan set. [AM 2-06.4.3]
2. Clarification required – plan view (C200) shows a striped pedestrian path at the West – what is the purpose/intent of the path?
a. It will require revision as it is in direct conflict with established pedestrian circulation standards. Sidewalks or pedestrian refuge areas cannot be located between any motor vehicle parking space and the PAAL providing access to that space [TSM 7-01.4.F]
b. If the spaces are to be removed, revision will remain required as vertical separation requirements will then need to be addressed as the area to the West is considered a vehicle use area. [TSM 7-01.4.2]
3. SWPPP (Sheet C800) – Revise the SWPPP to show the construction entrance the required minimum length to be the standard 50-feet.
