11. **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.
We identified 4 existing water meters (size 2inches) serving the lot. Two of them are for potable water, the other two are for reclaimed water irrigation use. If these services will be abandoned due to the building being demolished, please contact Tucson Water’s New Services Section by calling 520-791-5164 or by sending an email to TW_Common@tucsonaz.gov
The proposed connections to the existing Tucson Water distribution system make sense. Proposed tie ins include connecting to the 6-inch cement asbestos (CA) water main (E Zone) located on the south side of the parcel, within the right-of-way of E Dogwood St, and connecting to the existing 6-inch cement asbestos (CA) water main (E Zone) located on the northeast side of the parcel, within the right-of-way of S Queen Palm Dr. and form a loop, which is in alignment with Section 8-06.4.2.A of Tucson Water’s Design Manual to meet water quality and fire flow requirements.
An overall water master plan will need to be prepared for this project and submitted to Tucson Water and local Fire Department for review and approval. The overall master plan must show the water main layout and identify if there is construction phasing for the new water mains.
The Water Master Plan and detailed Water Design Plan are separate submittals that must be made through Tucson Water’s electronic plan portal at https://cityoftucsonaz-energovweb.tylerhost.net/apps/selfservice#/home, or can be combined into an “at risk” submittal.
More information about Tucson Water’s Water Master Plan and detailed Water Design Plan processes can be found on-line at https://www.tucsonaz.gov/Departments/Planning-Development-Services/Frequently-Asked-Questions/Tucson-Development-Center-Online-Instructions
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.
