| Site Engineering | REVIEW COMPLETED | Tucson codes and ordinances can be found online at https://codelibrary.amlegal.com/codes/tucson/latest/overview The Stormwater Retention-Detention Manual can be found online at https://www.tucsonaz.gov/files/pdsd/updated-retention-detention-manual/updated-retention-detention-manual.pdf 1. Balanced basin detention is required on this site. 2. First flush retention is required on this site. 3. Maximize water harvesting to landscaped areas through use of curb cuts and flush curbs. 4. The City of Tucson encourages Low Impact Design (LID) practices for storm water management as defined by the Stormwater Retention Detention Manual. These standards discourage the use of large retention/detention basins and encourage the use of smaller basins and planted bioretention basins throughout the site. The goal is to achieve the same volume of detention while attempting to mimic natural hydrologic processes and increase land available for development.Pima County's LID software (https://www.pima.gov/1727/Software) is useful as a tool to show compliance with these standards. 5. If a lot split is proposed, a cross-use agreement will be required for shared use of the waste enclosure. Lianne Evans lianne.evans@tucsonaz.gov |
