4. Ensure you have begun the process for any and all sewer/wastewater related permits through Pima County prior to the submission of any and all new building permits related to the site.
5. There will be Outdoor Lighting Code Review on this project, please plan and ensure your engineer submits those pages are part of your submittal. https://www.tucsonaz.gov/files/sharedassets/public/v/1/city-services/planning-development-services/documents/2012_outdoor_lighting_code_.pdf
6. Please ensure that all special inspections/deferred submittals (field reports, etc) are understood by the General Contractor who understands the timing of when they are to be approved. City of Tucson *will* withhold final C of O’s until they have been approved. They should be submitted in a timely manner that fits the sequencing of the actual construction process, i.e Post Tension Special Inspection reports should be submitted shortly after they are performed. The day before a C of O is to be sought will not give staff enough time to review these.

Site Engineering Review Comments:

1. The proposed development must comply with the City of Tucson Unified Development Code (UDC) Administrative Manual Chapter 2-06 – Development Package. Building permits can be submitted and reviewed concurrently with the development package but the building plans cannot be approved until the development package is approved and the building plans are reviewed for consistency.
2. Lot Combination needed, this process will need to be accomplished through Pima County. It is recommended that the combo be completed prior to full development review.
3. A full drainage report shall be submitted with the application for the associated development package submittal. The report must demonstrate compliance with all applicable City of Tucson stormwater management requirements, including first-flush retention and critical basin detention. The following references from the Standards Manual for Drainage Design and Floodplain Management (COT Drainage Manual) and the Design Standards for Stormwater Detention and Retention Manual (DSSDR) shall govern report preparation:

c. Erosion Hazard Assessment: COT Drainage Manual Chapters 6 & 7
d. Drainage Facility Design Standards: COT Drainage Manual Chapters 9–11
e. First-Flush Retention & Detention Guidelines/Triggers: DSSDR Chapters 2, 3, & 4
f. Notice: The property is partially located within Rodeo Wash Watershed which carries a Critical Basin designation. Based on sub-watershed determinations for drainage management – it will need to be demonstrated that detention requirements be met for this portion of the site.
g. Provide calculations and discussion as noted above to verify the reduction of the existing stormwater basin will continue to meet required stormwater standards for the existing development.
h. Depending upon results of the stormwater calculations and research, verify the determination that the detention pond at the southwest corner of the site will not need to be developed concurrently with the proposed development and can remain a future build.
4. Geotechnical Investigation Report — A Geotechnical Investigation Report prepared and sealed by a Professional Engineer registered in the State of Arizona is required [IBC 1803] and shall be submitted with the associated Development Package submittal. At a minimum, the report shall address the following:
a. Soil Bearing Capacity & Site Classification — Allowable soil bearing capacity, seismic site classification, expansive soil identification, and groundwater conditions, with all applicable foundation design recommendations for the proposed construction.

The applicant shall prepare a Stormwater Pollution Prevention Plan (SWPPP) and file a Notice of Intent with ADEQ prior to the start of any earth-disturbing activity.
b. A dust control permit from the Pima County Department of Environmental Quality is required separately and is triggered at the same threshold as the SWPPP. Confirm applicability with PDEQ prior to commencing site work.
6. Applicable Waste Management Standards:
a. Provide the Waste Stream Calculations for the entire site on the Development Package cover sheet or where able to on the plan set. [TSM 8-01.8.0]
b. Provide a trash enclosure detail(s) that is compliant with TSM 8-01.0.0. This should include all necessary information as well as include the required minimum clear space. This detail should be comparable to figures found in TSM 8-01.9.0.

Drainage flowing across all pedestrian circulation paths shall be designed and constructed to convey flows under the path for up to and including the ten-year frequency flood events, except at street intersections, pedestrian crossings, and PAAL pedestrian crossings. [TSM 7-01.4.1.E & 7-01.4.3.E]
a. Provide keynotes and call-outs identifying all downspouts and sidewalk scupper locations on all related site plans and/or building sheets. This information is required to demonstrate compliance and to ensure coordination with building permit plan review.
b. If downspouts from rooftops are to be discharged at grade-level, ensure that the stormwaters up to and including flow from a 10-year event are directed away from accessible parking stalls.
8. Depressed loading areas are subject to strict drainage regulations to prevent flooding/ponding, particularly relevant in heavy commercial or industrial zones. If depressed loading bays are proposed for 4 or more bays, oil and sand separators will be required. If a pump is required to drain a depressed area it must be drained down within 4 hours and conform to Tucson Water standard specs, Section 1204 and DSSDR Section 4.18. Please channel all pump discharge into the nearest landscaped areas. COT Standards Manual for Drainage Design and Floodplain Management in Tucson, Arizona.
9. Pedestrian circulation is required to connect all buildings, dumpster areas, common areas, and the sidewalk on all the street frontages [TSM 7-01.3.3]
10. Sight visibility triangles (SVT) will need to be shown at site access points, unless:
a. On any PAAL or on a street that generates an ADT of 140 or less and intersects a local road, no sight triangle is required. The minimum perimeter yard required in Article 6, Dimensional Standards and Measurements, of the UDC prevails. [TSM 10-01.5.1 & 5.2]

TW New Area Development * REVIEW COMPLETED Based on the information provided, Tucson Water has no objections to the proposed development.
Please note that Plan #050-2022, Tucson Airport Center 2 – BLDG B, was approved by Tucson Water in August 2022 for the exact same location.
In the approved plan set, the proposed water system included a connection to the existing 8-inch cement asbestos (DH Zone) water main located along the north side of Parcel No. 14042065C, within the right-of-way of E. Medina Rd. The proposed water main extension was designed to form a loop by connecting back to the existing 8-inch water main located on the west side of the existing Building A.
There are two existing 6-inch fire hydrants along the north side of the parcel, within the right-of-way of E. Medina Rd.
Water pressure in this area is 76-83 PSI at an elevation of 2601ft. Water pressure can vary by an additional 5 psi +/-.
An updated 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 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
If any new domestic water, irrigation water, or fire water services are needed to serve this proposed development, 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.
