03/16/2017 KLEE1 OTHER AGENCIES TUCSON AIRPORT AUTHORITY Approv-Cond March 14, 2017

Dear Ms. Lee,

Thank you for the opportunity to comment on DP16-0176, 6th and Medina; 1st Submittal, a development package application of a tentative plat for an approximately 8.96 acre site located on the northeast corner of South 6th Avenue and East Medina Road. The proposed land use is residential.

The Tucson Airport Authority acknowledges that the development of a residential use is allowed on this project site since it is currently zoned as Medium Density Residential (R-2) and is in compliance with the City of Tucson's Compatible Use Zone 2 (CUZ-2) overlay.

The Tucson Airport Authority objects to this project since it is a new residential use in the immediate vicinity of the Tucson International Airport that will have residents who will be impacted by future aircraft operations and noise. In addition, the proposed residential use is inconsistent with the City of Tucson 12th Avenue - Valencia Road Area Plan.

This project site is located within the City of Tucson 12th Avenue - Valencia Road Area Plan, Subarea 6. Subarea 6 identifies that a majority of the area is within a high noise exposure area and places a heavy emphasis on the development of an employment center with park industrial, office, and/or commercial uses. Subarea 6 does not support residential uses for this property.

From a planning perspective, and as clearly reflected in the City of Tucson's own planning documents, the employment center, park industrial, office, and commercial uses would better support the surrounding community with additional employment options, and are far more compatible uses to the airport and its environs. As you know, residential development, particularly like the one proposed near the end of current and future runways has the potential to have a direct negative impact to the residents who choose to live there, and will create an ongoing noise compatibility issue for both the City of Tucson and the Tucson International Airport.

We recommend that the City of Tucson, to the extent permitted by law, and consistent with its own code and planning for the airport environs, require the developer to install noise mitigation for all residential units (sound insulation, triple pane windows, etc.) to limit the impact of noise and aircraft operations for future residents and require and ensure that the recommended Avigation Easement is recorded for this plat.

If this project proceeds, TAA recommends the following conditions should be added to any approval associated with this project and placed in the general notes of the approved development plan.


Condition of approval:

"That prior to the City's approval of any construction permit for a permanent building, the property owner shall record the Avigation Easement prior to the subdivision process which discloses the existence, and operational characteristics of the Tucson International Airport to future owners or tenants of the property and further conveys the right to the public to lawfully use the airspace above the property. A copy of the recorded Avigation Easement shall be provided to the Tucson Airport Authority. The City of Tucson shall verify that the Tucson Airport Authority has received a recorded Avigation Easement before issuing the approval of any construction permits for a permanent building. The content of such documents shall be according to the form and instructions provided.

That development shall not cause or potentially affect aviation in the vicinity of the site, including but not limited to, physical obstructions to aircraft operations, interference with operations by way of electrical static, visual obstructions through emissions or glare, and/or the open storage of petroleum products, explosive materials, or materials which attract or lead to the concentration of wildlife."


The current property owner or person authorized to sign on behalf of the current property owner shall complete, sign, and record the Avigation Easement. The Avigation Easement shall be recorded with the Pima County Recorder's Office. Once the Avigation Easement is recorded please send a copy of the recorded easement to Tucson Airport Authority by either email (send to srobidoux@flytucson.com) or to the mailing address provided below.

The developer shall provide the Airport Disclosure Statement form, at time of sale, to the new property owners with new unit purchases. In the event this proposed project does not involve the sale of new units, but is instead offering rental residential units to the public, the new tenant of the rental unit shall be provided a copy of the Airport Disclosure Statement form. The intent of the Airport Disclosure Statement form is to educate and notify the individual that they are living near an airport. The new property owner or new tenant shall forward a signed copy of the Airport Disclosure Statement form to:

5. Correct the statement made in general note 22.
6. Make sure the drainage report demonstrates that the area discharging to the basin will provide the required volume to achieve 5-year threshold retention.
7. Provide a discussion in the drainage report, incorporating the information from the geotechnical report to demonstrate the need for the use of detention in lieu of retention. Otherwise revise the plan to remove the bleed pipe.
8. . Clearly label grading and SWPPP sheets in the plan set and in the sheet index.
9. Provide a common area designation for the NUOS in the title block.
10. Provide a complete SWPPP meeting all the requirements of the current general permit. Include a copy of the ADEQ checklist, completed to show how each requirement has been fulfilled.
11. The SWPPP sheet is not consistent in the details, descriptions and callouts. Ensure it is consistent with itself and the full plan.
12. Provide detail for the concrete washout. Make sure it is consistent with the requirements of the ADWR general permit.
13. The City of Tucson is not a phase II community. Please correct the reference.
14. The SWPPP notes say the site has no surface bodies including dry/ephemeral washes and wetlands. Please correct this description. Correct all inaccuracies on the plans.
15. Clearly show existing and proposed grades along the south and west boundaries of the project. If more than 2 feet of fill is proposed for any location within the 40 feet of the south boundary or 10 feet of the west boundary, the differential grading procedure must be followed.

The natural resource value for an area is assessed by the consideration of factors such as:
(1) Health, size, density, and variety of native plant species;
(2) The visual resource value of the area(s); and,
(3) The potential to maximize the preservation of contiguous areas of NUOS both on- and off-site.
b. Mitigation Standards
A minimum of 30% of the site shall be set aside in perpetuity as NUOS area. The set aside area shall consist of the area(s) with the highest resource value as determined by the ERR or area(s) that is left undisturbed and preserved as provided in Section 5.7, Environmental Resource Zone.
c. Federal Endangered Species, Saguaros, and Ironwood Tree Mitigation Standards
The ERR shall include an inventory and analysis of all plants listed as Federal Endangered Species, all Saguaros, and all Ironwoods designated as Protected Native Plants in accordance with Section 2-11.0.0, Native Plant Preservation Plan Requirements, of the Administrative Manual. Preservation and mitigation standards for these genus and species shall conform to Section 7.7.5.A.1, Plant Inventory Methodology.

4.5 Set Aside Submittal
The requirements of the Environmental Resource Report shall be fulfilled in the assessment of the area(s) of natural resource to be set aside as undisturbed natural open space in lieu of performing a Native Plant Inventory, Analysis, and Plant Preservation and Salvage Plan. In addition, an aerial photograph, taken within a maximum of three years of submittal, is required at a minimum one inch equals 100 feet delineating the natural resource values for areas on the site and the area(s) to be set aside which will be platted and included in Covenants, Conditions, and Restrictions (CC&Rs) as NUOS. Any aerial photograph submitted, which was taken more than one year prior to submittal, shall be accompanied by a note on the plans stating that the site is substantially unchanged from the date of the aerial photograph.
03/27/2017 ROBERT SHERRY PLUMBING-COMMERCIAL REVIEW Reqs Change Based on the FFE being 0.67' higher than the given pad elevation and the approximate rim elevation of public manhole 4107-12 being 2532', lots 1, 2, 3, and 4 will require the installation of a backwater valve when future plumbing activities take place. Similarly, lots 18 and 19 will also require the installation of a backwater valve. [Initial comment: Show the approximate points of connection of the building sewers to the proposed public (?) sewers. If the rim elevation of the next upstream sanitary manhole is higher than the first floor elevation or is less than 12" below the first floor elevation, provide a note on the plans requiring the installation of a backwater valve when future plumbing activities take place. Reference: Section 715.1, IPC 2012, as amended by the City of Tucson.]
