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. The ROW and the utility corridor include many landscape elements. Transportation landscape review has been added to this review cycle. Reach out to David Marhefka (david.marhefka@tucsonaz.gov) for approval of all landscape work being done in the ROW. Include your coordination with David, and DTM as a letter or email PDF with your next submittal.

2. Referencing between the planting and civil utility plans there doesn’t appear to be any conflicts. Please coordinate all plantings and other landscape elements with the utilities shown on the civil plans. It is understandable if you chose not to show the utility lines on the planting plan, but if the underground utilities (water lines) at the south end (and any other applicable area on site) could be shown as a really light gray, that would be helpful for review and for clarity in the field.

3. It is recognized and appreciated that a Commercial Rainwater Harvesting plan and calculations is being included with this project submittal. The 3% shown on the plant water demand spreadsheet is rainfall within each WHIA only. Can a disclaimer note be added near the plant water demand spreadsheet that explains your efforts of depressing all planting areas, also state the exemption due to the Sunshine Mile District overlay and that the water harvest infiltration areas are only catching what falls within the planters?

Drainage Side Note: The design intention appears to include the roof drainage overflowing from the downspout/splash pad foundation planting areas to adjacent planting areas. A scupper from the foundation planting area flush with the sidewalk may be a better alternative than letting the water flow over the sidewalk. Coordinate with your team and consider this option.

4. The cross-sections are a great addition to the plans. Will all landscape planting areas be depressed slightly for rainwater harvest. If so, please include a note that they will be depressed a few inches to catch additional rainwater. If the cross-section details can show this slight depression, that would be helpful as well.

5. The cross-section on sheet L5.07 includes a RWH curb cut. Can a note also be added to scupper flush or under the sidewalk for drainage in and out of the planters on both sides of the sidewalk? If this is not the intent, then disregard my comment.

6. The shade calculation in the matrix is great. Can the required open space calculation be added to the matrix for abundant design requirement clarity? Summarize any other Sunshine Mile District requirements applicable to this project for additional clarity during review.

7. Design Review Board approval is required prior to PDSD Site Landscape approval.

8. The mitigation summary and mitigation calculations call out (1) Barrel to be transplanted. It is not shown on the planting plan or planting schedule.

9. The planting plan indicates a cultivar ‘Burgundy’ Desert Willow. Is that what is on site or is it the standard protected Desert Willow from TSM 5-03.2.0 Protected Native Plant List?

10. Can a simple summary of TOS and Mitigation plants be added to the NPPO and the planting plan sheets. This is a simple NPPO plan, but this quick addition really helps the inspectors if I’m not available to be on site.

11. Provide the development package case number, TD-DEV-0925-00239, adjacent to the title block on all site landscape sheets, per Administrative Manual 2-06.4.3

12. Prior to Site Landscape Development Package approval, please make sure Site Zoning and Site Engineering comments are addressed.

Thank you.

5. COMMENT: 2-06.4.8.B – The sequence number provided for a described “Exist 5’ R/W Easement SEQ #20193250266 to be abandoned” on sheet 2 does not appear to describe the annotated easement and instead describes the adjacent electric easement provided to TEP. Please clarify the 5’ easement.

2-06.4.9.Q - Provide the square footage and the height of each commercial, industrial, or business structure and the specific use proposed within the footprint of the building(s).

8. COMMENT: 2-06.4.9.Q – Sheets 1 and 2 indicated a height of 70 8” MAX to top of parapet of the building(s) and 68’ 2” to top of parapet of the parking garage, but the Development Standards table on Sheet 1 states that the proposed building height to be “59.67’ MAX T.O.P.” Clarify inconsistencies between the table and the plan sheets.

RE: TD-DEV-0925-00239, 1st Submittal, Multi-Family Development, 5-Story, 366,520 SF, 235
Units, 800 Beds. / 136 N. Park Ave, Tucson, AZ. 85719, Received September 24, 2025
To whom this may concern,
Thank you for the opportunity to comment on TD-DEV-0925-00239, 1st Submittal, a
development plan for a new multi-family development at 136 North Park Avenue. This
development is located in the N.E. quarter of the S.W. quarter of Section 7, Township 14S,
Range 14E, of the Gila and Salt River Meridian. The development site occupies parcel numbers
124-06-1720, 124-06-0171B, 124-06-152A, 124-06-1530, 124-06-154B, 124-06-157A, 124-06-
158A, and 124-06-159B, covers approximately 3.636 ± acres, is zoned as Commercial 1 Zone
(C-1), Commercial 2 Zone (C-2), Residence 2 Zone (R-2), is located within the Urban Overlay
District, and is located within the Sunshine Mile District. The nearest major roadway intersection
is East 10th Street and North Park Avenue, approximately 50 feet to the southwest of the subject
development.
This site does lie within the Tucson International Airport avigation easement requirements and
public disclosure area, FAA traffic pattern airspace, and FAA Part 77 airspace.
The Tucson Airport Authority approves the 1st submittal of this project and is not required a
resubmittal of this project.
Although this project does not propose a change in plan designation or zoning the Tucson
Airport Authority highly recommends the applicant add the following notes into the general notes
of the revised development plan. This project is located approximately 6.16 miles north of
Tucson International Airport and is within FAA traffic pattern airspace, an area which would be
subject to aircraft overflight and noise due to being in close proximity to Tucson International
Airport.
The proposed notes would provide a means of assuring that future owners and tenants of the
property are aware they are in proximity an airport and further assures the continued right of the
City of Tucson, Tucson Airport Authority, and all persons lawfully utilizing the Tucson
International Airport the right to utilize the airspace above or near the property. This would be
accomplished through the property owner recording the Avigation Easement and providing the
Airport Disclosure Statement to the new residents of all residential uses. The Tucson Airport
Authority believes the proposed note helps to support the City of Tucson Airport Environs
Overlay Zone and supports Plan Tucson – Regional and Global Positioning policy 4 (RG-4).
1. "That prior to the City's approval of the proposed development, the property owner must
record the Avigation Easement that discloses the existence and operational
characteristics of the Tucson International Airport to future owners or tenants of the
property and further conveys the right to the public to lawfully use the airspace above the
property. The Avigation Easement shall be recorded in a manner with the Pima County
recorder which shall document it as having title liability. The content of such documents
shall be according to the form and instructions provided.”
The current property owner or person authorized to sign on behalf of the current property
owner must complete, sign, and record the Avigation Easement. Please record the
Avigation Easement with the Pima County Recorder’s Office. Then send a complete
copy of the recorded easement document to Tucson Airport Authority by either email
(send to srobidoux@flytucson.com) or to the mailing address provided below.

2. Applicable to residential uses only
“The property owner/developer/applicant must provide the Airport Disclosure Statement
form, at time of sale, to the new property owners with all new unit purchases. In the
event the development of any residential uses does not involve the sale of new units but
is instead offering rental residential units to the public, the new tenant of the rental unit
must be provided a copy of the Airport Disclosure Statement form. The intent of the
Airport Disclosure Statement form is to educate and notify the new residents that they
are living near an airport. The content of such documents shall be according to the form
and instructions provided.”
The property owner (for itself or its tenants) shall forward a signed copy of the Airport
Disclosure Statement form to the Tucson Airport Authority within ten (10) days of
signature, using the Scott Robidoux mailing address provided above.
Please do not hesitate to contact me if you have any questions or concerns regarding this
comment letter. I can be reached by email at srobidoux@flytucson.com or by telephone at 520-
