3. UDC 7.6.2. APPLICABILITY
The provisions of this section apply to the following: All new developments require the submittal of a landscape plan set. Preparation of the landscape plans shall adhere to UDC 7.6 and Administrative Manual 2-10.

4. THE PARKING AREA CONSISTS OF 3 UNCOVERED SPACES AND 9 STRUCTURALLY COVERED SPACES IN THE VEHICLE VACUUM AREA. NEITHER OF THESE PROPOSED PARKING AREAS TRIGGER THE PARKING LOT CANOPY TREE REQUIREMENT OF 1 TREE FOR EVERY 4 PARKING SPACES PROVIDED, see UDC 7.6.4.B. Structurally covered parking spaces do not count toward the ratio, see UDC 7.6.4.B.1.c (8). Trees are to be distributed evenly throughout the parking area, see UDC 7.6.4.1.a.(1). See Technical Standards Manual 5-01.3.0 for additional landscaping in vehicular use area requirements.

5. Street landscape borders per UDC 7.6.4.C.2 and Table 7.6.4-1 and proposed Commercial land use along MS&R and non-MS&R:
A. W. Grant Rd. requires a 10’ landscape border and a 30-inch screen located at the rear perimeter of the landscape border. All street landscape borders should be designed on the project side of the ROW/Future ROW. **THE EXISTING STREET LANDSCAPE BORDER WILL NEED TO BE UPDATED TO BE IN COMPLIANCE WITH THE ABOVE-MENTIONED STREET LANDSCAPE BORDER STANDARDS.

6. DTM review is required for all planting and irrigation in the ROW prior to the approval of the development package. Reach out to David Marhefka (david.marhefka@tucsonaz.gov) for review and approval if applicable for this project.

7. A drip irrigation plan and details are required for all proposed landscape planting areas.

8. All landscape plans shall incorporate water conserving design as defined in UDC Section 7.6.6, Use of Water, and as described in the Technical Standards Manual 5.01-5.11.

9. A Commercial Rainwater Harvesting plan is required: See Technical Standards Manual 4-01.3.0 RAINWATER HARVESTING PLAN. A Rainwater Harvesting Plan shall be submitted with all applications for commercial developments at which landscaping is required. The Rainwater Harvesting Plan shall consist of two elements: a Site Water Budget and a Water Harvesting Implementation Plan. Preparation of the Rainwater Harvesting Plan elements requires coordination between project managers, site engineers and landscape architects from the inception of the project. The two elements of the Rainwater Harvesting Plan shall illustrate water harvesting how will meet 50% of annual landscape water demand, as required by the ordinance.

10. Coordinate the Landscape Plan, Commercial Rainwater Harvesting Plan and the Civil Grading Plans to have identical basin size, grades/percent slopes, spot elevations and curb cut inlet and outlet locations.

11. Maximize rainwater harvesting across the site into all landscape areas, including the street landscape borders and planting islands for the required trees in the parking area.

12. A separate irrigation water meter is required. Please label irrigation meter as “irrigation only”. See TSM 4-01.6.0. Or see City of Tucson Ordinance 10597 -- Sec. 6-182. Rainwater Harvesting Plan: Number 3 (a) A separate water meter connected to the main water supply; or (b) An irrigation sub-meter.

13. **If it is determined that any of the above provided site landscape standards cannot be met due to the nature of the development, then a Design Development Option (DDO) may be an option to gain partial relief from some landscape requirements, see UDC 3.11.1.B.3 for landscape and screening modifications allowed. A Board of Adjustment Variance to the UDC site landscape requirements is also a viable alternative. Please reach out to Mark Castro or Georgia Pennington with PDSD for more information on the DDO and Variance process. Mark.Castro@tucsonaz.gov – Georgia.Pennington@tucsonaz.gov

TW New Area Development * REVIEW COMPLETED Based on the information provided, Tucson Water has no objections to the proposed development.
There’s an existing 5/8-inch water meter currently serving the lot, this meter connected to a 12-inch cement asbestos water main (A zone) located to the north side of the parcel within the right-of-way of W Grant Rd. The water pressure in this area ranges from 81 to 88 PSI at an elevation of 2304 feet, with potential fluctuations of approximately ±5 PSI.
If this service will be abandoned due to the building being demolished, and new service connections will be required, please contact Tucson Water’s New Services Section by calling 520-791-5164 or by sending an email to TW_Common@tucsonaz.gov.
The above comments are based on the limited preliminary information provided by the applicant and should not be construed as a complete review of the proposal. Any questions, comments or concerns about these comments may be directed to Abdullah Salman (Project Manager) at Abdullah.Salman@tucsonaz.gov.
