NOTICE: Until Replating process has been completed – Site Engineering will be unable to provide final approval to any permit in review. Applicants are aware of requirements as per General note #11. a. As this issue impacts three properties currently, all properties involved will need to undergo the Final Plat process to replat and formally remove or revise the floodplain encroachment restriction currently set forth by General Note #11. This cannot be accomplished through an administrative waiver or variance alone given the platted note restriction. b. Updated Hydrologic & Hydraulic Studies: As part of the replat process, updated H&H studies will be required for both affected water courses. This must include a formal encroachment analysis to evaluate the impacts of any proposed development within the floodplain limits. c. Erosion Hazard Setback Analysis: An Erosion Hazard Setback (EHS) analysis will also be required to establish appropriate setbacks from the active channel(s) and to ensure that any proposed structures or improvements can be safely located relative to the erosion hazard zone. This is a standard requirement under the City of Tucson's floodplain regulations and will need to be addressed prior to approval. 2. Resubmit the applicable site plans with accurate determined Finished floor elevations in regard to determined BFE’s established by the new hydraulic analysis as referenced within the development package submission. It is understood that some time may be required for analysis. Ensure all analysis is completed prior to resubmitting this floodplain use permit application. |
