Please refer to Admin Manual for instructions on what is needed for a Minor Subdivision. 2-07.5.0 CONTENT REQUIREMENTS 5.1 General A. A project-location map must be drawn in the upper right corner of the first sheet of the plat at a scale of three inches equals one mile and include the following information: 1. The project site approximately centered within a one square mile area; 2. Label the section, township, and range; section corners; north arrow; and the scale; 3. Subdivisions, arterial and collector streets, major watercourses, and railroads within the one-mile area; and, 4. The city’s jurisdictional limits, if within the mapped area. B. If the plat contains more than one sheet, a small index drawing of the site showing the area represented on each sheet is to be placed on the first sheet. Exception: The project-location may be used as the index map on plats having only two or three sheets. C. If the project is located within the boundaries of a Planned Area Development (PAD) zone, include a reduced-scale map of the entire PAD on the first sheet, indicating the location of the portion being developed. D. Place the words “SEQ#________” in both the upper and lower right corners outside the margin line. The blanks will be completed by the Pima County Recorder’s Office at the time of recordation. E. Provide a title block in the lower right corner of each sheet with the following information: 1. Subdivision name; number of blocks, lots, and/or units; and common area; 2. Legal description by section, township, and range; and, 3. If the final plat is a resubdivision of a previously recorded plat, indicate the title and the book and page/sequence number reference of the existing subdivision; and 4. State “FINAL PLAT” in the tittle and title block. F. Orient the subdivision drawing with north toward the top of the page, when possible. Place a north arrow on each sheet in the upper right corner with the scale of the drawing beneath the arrow. All lettering, dimensions, etc., must be oriented to the north. If it is not practical to orient north to the top of the sheet, the plan drawing shall be oriented with north to the left side of the sheet. G. Line weights will reflect the nature of the line, e.g., right-of-way lines must be more prominent than lot lines or easements and drainageways must be shown in heavy solid lines except at street crossings. H. The S(Year)-___ subdivision case number assigned to the approved tentative plat must be placed in the lower right corner of the plat next to the title block. If the property is subject to a rezoning case, the C9-__-__ rezoning case number is to be noted also. 12/8/25, 9:52 AM export.amlegal.com/api/export-requests/209c9cf2-e222-4c5a-acb3-68400fecb937/download/ https://export.amlegal.com/api/export-requests/209c9cf2-e222-4c5a-acb3-68400fecb937/download/ 1/8 I.

If the project has common areas, label each common area individually with a separate letter designation. Enclose with a solid line each common area, private street, etc., that will have separate restrictions, a separate homeowners’ association, or any common area that is separated by a public right-of-way; D. Provide location, dimensions, areas in square footage, and purposes of lots proposed for dedication (such as open spaces, recreation areas, and natural areas) or for reservation for a public use (such as public parks, water facilities, and school sites); E. Show required setbacks, such as erosion hazard, drainage, etc.; F. Show the limits of the 100-year floodprone area in a surveyable and readily retraceable manner with frequent ties to intersecting lot lines for all flows of 100 cfs or more; G.

If the plat represents one phase of a multiphased project and access is provided through this phase to the future phases, indicate the access easements or public streets on this plat that will guarantee the access; and, L. Areas that include Protected Riparian Area shall be shown on the plat in a surveyable manner and designated as areas where no further development is permitted. 5.5 Survey Information A. Indicate primary control points, or descriptions and ties to such control points, to which all dimensions, angles, bearings, and similar data on the plat will be referred. Where a coordinate system has been established by the City Engineer or County Engineer, primary control points may be referenced thereto. At least one corner of the subdivision will be tied by course and distance to a section corner, a quarter section corner, or an established city or county survey monument. The plat must include a description of that corner marker and an indication of how the bearings were determined. Corner tie recordation information is to be provided on the plat. B. Indicate tract boundary lines; right-of-way and centerlines of streets, easements, and other rights-of-way; and property lines of residential lots and other sites, with accurate dimensions, bearings, or deflection angles and radii, arcs, and central angles of all curves. C. Additional details to be shown are as follows: 1. Basis of Bearings. The purpose of the basis of bearings on a survey is to enable another surveyor to retrace the original survey. As such, the statement must be referenced to found, readily locatable monuments. There are three general methods of establishing bearings: a. Reference to a record of survey or a recorded plat; b. Astronomic (normally solar or polaris); and, c. Assumed. The basis of bearings must be established from at least two found, physically monumented points described and shown on the final plat. If the monuments at each end of the reference line are fully described on the plat, they need not be described in the “Basis of Bearings” statement; 2. Label all boundary lines as to exact nature; 3. The boundary survey and section breakdown must be shown, if performed; 4. Boundary monumentation(s) must be labeled as “found” or “set.” a. Fully describe and show all markings on found monuments. b. A one-half inch iron rod tagged by a registered land surveyor must be set at all corners upon completion of construction. 5. Show the distance and bearing between all monuments used. Indicate whether measured or calculated. Measured is the physical, direct occupation of a point/line by line of sight and not through calculations of other measured distances; and, 6. In castings for points on section and quarter section lines, the standard survey monuments must be set on the street monument line at all intersections, points of curves (P.C.s), points of reverse curves (P.R.C.s), stub street termini, and at radius points of cul-de-sacs, eyebrows, or knuckles.

Crossed out manhole covers are not acceptable survey monuments. 5.6 Protective Covenants Protective covenants or Covenants, Conditions, and Restrictions (CC&Rs) establishing responsibility for construction, maintenance, and ownership of any proposed common area, open space, private street, or similar joint use, when needed, will: A. Provide for maintenance of and liability for any proposed commonly-owned areas; and B. Include the various conditions of rezoning or other special situations requiring permanent administration by an owners’ association. (Am. Admin. Directive, 5/14/2013; Am. Admin.
