Site Engineering | REVIEW COMPLETED | 1. If there are changes proposed to the site or floor plan that was recorded with the final plat (S05-117), then a new plat will be required. 2. If the recorded final plat is going to be used, the common area B must be depressed 6-9 inches to provide retention/detention. The site is in a critical basin, and the 2-, 10- and 100-year peak discharge post-development must be reduced 15% as compared to the discharges pre-development. A drainage report or statement will be required to show this requirement 3. From recent clarification from Environmental Services per TSM section 8, although recycling service isn’t required the site needs to provide at minimum the enclosure space for both solid waste and recycling. A single enclosure won’t be sufficient and a double enclosure or additional single enclosures will be needed to meet this requirement. It is also important to point out per TSM section 8-01.4.I - required parking may be reduced for existing development when solid waste and recycling enclosures are provided. To request relief from this requirement, contact Andy Vera at andy.vera@tucsonaz.gov 4. Maximize water harvesting into any landscaping through the use of grading, curb cuts, scuppers, flush curbs, etc Scott Haseman scott.haseman@tucsonaz.gov |

Site Zoning | REVIEW COMPLETED | FROM: Iman Monshizadeh PDSD Zoning Review Section PROJECT: TP-PRE-0523-00233 (Condo development) TRANSMITTAL DATE: 07/05/2023 It appears plat S05-117 is expired and does not comply with current UDC standards; therefore, it is unclear if the applicant may proceed with this final and tentative plat - PDSD Staff will consult with legal to understand if the applicant may utilize this plat for future development. If legal determines that this plat is still valid, the applicant may proceed with the S05-117 final and tentative plat. If legal determine this plat is expired or ‘unbuildable’ (per UDC 8.5) a new final and tentative plat (AM 2-06 and 2-07) may be required and the applicant may consider replating for one of the following types of development – a Flexible Lot Development (FLD) or Single Family, Attached. This site meets the standards for a single family attached development. Definition: https://codelibrary.amlegal.com/codes/tucson/latest/tucson_az_udc/0-0-0-7371 Exceptions: https://codelibrary.amlegal.com/codes/tucson/latest/tucson_az_udc/0-0-0-4944 A Flexible lot development might require some redevelopment to the existing layout of the site, FLD standards can be found at: https://codelibrary.amlegal.com/codes/tucson/latest/tucson_az_udc/0-0-0-6690 A flexible lot development that is 5 acres or less requires 109 square feet/unit dedicated to functional open space. For either option interior lot line setbacks between structures can be reduced to 0. Property boundary and front perimeter setbacks are as follows Front perimeter yard: 20’ from structure to property line East and west boundary: 6’ or 2/3 * height of structure (whichever is greater) North boundary: 10’ or ¾ * Height of structure (whichever is greater) Visitor parking for single family dwellings is permitted on-street if the street is wide enough to accommodate parking on both sides of the street. If the street is not wide enough, a parking lot in common area must be provided with a parking ratio of 1 space per unit to accommodate visitor parking (UDC 10-01). Otherwise the minimum parking calculation of 18 spaces will need to be met. Provided comments are preliminary, more comments will follow on the full FLD review. For questions regarding Zoning comments, please contact me at: Iman.Monshizadeh@tucsonaz.gov / (520) 837-4082 |

TW New Area Development | REVIEW COMPLETED | TP-PRE-0523-00223 - Pre-Application Conference Review v1 – 431 E YAVAPAI RD 1. Based on the information provided, Tucson Water offers the following comments for your convenience: 2. As NextGen Engineering didn’t include any list of questions or a narrative of what kind of feedback NextGen is asking for, Tucson Water is limiting it’s comments to the design of the new public water main that will need to be constructed to serve this proposed development and the Tucson Water’s review and acceptance processes for the new public water main. 3. Sheet 1: Permitting Note 7: Revise this note to read, WATER SERVICE WILL BE PROVIDED TO EACH UNIT VIA A NEW PUBLIC WATER MAIN CONSTRUCTED BY SEPARATE PLAN. CONTACT TUCSON WATER’S NEW SERVICE’S SECTION AT TW_COMMON@TUCSONAZ.GOV TO OBTAIN WATER METERS. 4. Sheet 3: Tucson Water’s SE251313 valve map and the as-built plans of the existing 6” water main in Yavapai (WO 8486PN) do not show an existing fire hydrant in front of this property as shown on Sheet 3. Tucson Water’s SE251313 valve map and the WO 8486PN as-built plans may be obtained from Tucson Water by sending a email request to TWMapinfo@tucsonaz.gov 5. Sheet 3: The water meters should not be located in the private drive where they will be regularly driven over. They should be located in back of the sidewalk, adjacent to the backflow preventers, if possible. Per Tucson Water Standard Detail (SD) 309 , if the water meters must be located in an area subject to vehicular traffic, cast iron meter boxes must be used. 6. The owner/developer will need to construct all on-site and any off-site public water mains and fire hydrants necessary to serve this development at his or her own expense. 7. The new water main serving this project must be a public water main, and each condominium will need to be equipped with its own water meter and water service line to the new public water main. No split services will be allowed. 8. The following requirements will apply to the design and construction of the new public water mains: a. The owner/developer will first need to obtain a Water Availability Letter from Tucson Water via the Tucson Development Center Online website that verifies this project is within Tucson Water’s service area. This document is required for all projects, even though it may be obvious that the project is within Tucson Water’s service area. It is used in many other development processes, most notably the City Council’s final plat approval process. b. A master water plan showing the proposed water main layout will then need to be prepared for this project. c. The proposed new on-site water mains will need to connect at least two different points in Tucson Water’s existing water distribution system and form a loop as required by Section 8-06.4.2.A of Tucson Water’s Design Manual to meet water quality and fire flow requirements. If such looping is not legally or technically feasible, a written explanation of what legal and/or technical reasons prevent such looping must accompany the Master Water Plan when it is submitted for review. d. The new public water mains will also need to be located within public or private streets to the maximum extent practicable. Where this is not practicable, the new water mains will need to be centered within public water easements that are a minimum of 15’ wide and lie on smallest number of private parcels possible. e. The local fire department’s fire flow requirement for the building type, the fire hydrants and the fire department’s vehicular access also need to be shown on the water master plan. f. The water master plan must be submitted for review and acceptance via the Tucson Development Center Online website, wherein it will be routed to Tucson Fire Department and Tucson Water reviewers for review. g. Upon the Fire Department’s and Tucson Water’s acceptance of the water master plan, a detailed water design plan for the new water mains must be prepared. h. The detailed water design plan must also be submitted to Tucson Water’s New Development section for review and acceptance via the Tucson Development Center Online website i. The owner of the property will need to enter into a Construction Agreement with Tucson Water regarding the construction of the new water mains before Tucson Water will accept the detailed water design plan. j. Upon Tucson Water’s acceptance of the detailed design plan, the detailed design plan must be submitted to Pima County Development Services Department for an ADEQ Approval To Construct to comply with State of Arizona law. k. Only after all the above tasks have been completed, may the owner/developer schedule a Pre-Construction Meeting with Tucson Water’s Construction section to schedule the start of the new public water main construction. l. The new public water mains will not be accepted into Tucson Waters distribution system for use, and no water meters will be issued, until all new public water easements shown on the detailed construction plan have been recorded. 9. For additional information, access to forms, etc., please see Tucson Water’s: a. Contractors, Developers, and Engineers webpage at https://www.tucsonaz.gov/Departments/Water/Contractors-Developers-and-Engineers b. the Overview of Tucson Water’s Water Plan Submittal Processes at https://www.tucsonaz.gov/files/sharedassets/public/city-services/tucson-water/documents/overview-of-tws-water-plan-submittal-processes-rev.-0.pdf. c. and Tucson Water’s Standard Specifications and Details webpage at https://www.tucsonaz.gov/Departments/Water/Water-Projects-Programs/Tucson-Water-Standard-Specifications 10.
