COMMENTS: Please resubmit revised drawings along with a detailed response letter, which states how all Landscape Review Section comments were addressed.
This plan has been reviewed for compliance with applicable development criteria in the City of Tucson Unified Development Code (UDC) Administrative Manual (AM) Section 2-11 and Technical Manual (TM) Section for landscape, native plants and water harvesting.
1. UDC 2-10.4.1 Identification and Descriptive Data
A. All improvements and site information, such as adjacent rights-of-way and property lines, shown on the landscape plan will be identical in size and location to those shown on the base plan (site plan or tentative plat). Should amendments be required to the base plan through the review process, the same amendments will be made to the landscape plan which will then be resubmitted along with the base plan.

Ensure that Zoning and Engineering comments are addressed prior to landscape section approval.

2. Please significantly screen back the building footprint, proposed improvements and parking from the NPPP so that the underlying trees/shrubs/cacti can be seen clearly on the aerial. Upon the next submittal, the NPPP plans will be reviewed. Also, it is unlikely that only 9% of all inventoried vegetation on the site is viable. Please review calculations or schedule an on-site review with the NPPO reviewer.

3. Please resolve graphic conflicts on all sheets for maximum readability of native/landscape/irrigation plans.

4. Please label the existing and future rights of way for Bear Canyon Road on all sheets, UDC 7.6.4.C.2.a.

A tree every 6-9 parking spaces does not meet the intent of the requirement of UDC 7.6.4.B, please add additional trees in parking areas so that the ratio of 1 tree per 4 spaces is met, except for covered parking.

7. Chilopsis linearis is not considered a canopy tree. Please provide a species that provides maximum shade on the asphalt. Ensure that trees in vehicular use areas are planted within and adjacent to parking so that they afford the greatest amount of shade in paved areas, UDC Technical Standards Manual 5-01-.3.2 and UDC 7.6.4.B.1.a. Parking island within the parking area are preferred.

8. An interior landscape border is required adjacent to residential properties (partial south boundary).

9. Provide a detail of WHA/RET area that shows the minimum 6” depth of the water harvesting basin.

10. The 30” screen along the parking on the east side does not have to be a “hedge” or planted in an unbroken straight line, but does have to provide opacity from views of the cars/parking area.

11. Per Admin. Manual 2-10-4.2.D, provide reference to civil drawings/details that show bike racks, walkways, and screening/retaining walls on landscape plans.
