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.
General Note - UDC 2-10.4.1 Identification and Descriptive Data - 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.
1. Please provide all landscape calculations on the landscape plan, Admin. Manual 2-10-4.2.A.2.c, UDC Technical Standards 2-10.4.2.f & g.
2. The plant legend is difficult to read, please space out the symbols so that it is obvious which plant is which. Explain the difference between “desert salvage” vs. “salvage”. What is “low breaking”?
3. Please add a detail to show depressed landscape areas or indicate with notes.
4. Please label the existing and future rights of way for all public streets, UDC 7.6.4.C.2.a.
5. The Native Plant Preservation does not adhere to the requirements outlined in UDC 7.8. Please revise per Code. The total trees proposed for removal is unusually high, please schedule a site visit to verify plant quantities and viability.
6. An aerial photograph less than 2 years old is required to be the base of the NPP plan. Lots and streets should be screened back.
7. Please distinguish between the mitigation/salvage plants and the other required plants on the legend, symbol or any other method that would communicate the information. Please note that mitigation trees are in addition to other required trees.
8. Please provide a summary of quantities of all inventoried, mitigation and TOS plants in a manner that makes it simple to cross check between landscape and NPP plans.
9. Please indicate the installation of a private submeter if a separate irrigation meter is not being provided by labeling it “irrigation only”. UDC Technical Standards 4-01.6.1.A.1.
10. Identify the type of irrigation controller with soil moisture gauge, tensiometer, weather station and/or evaportranspiration data. UDC Tech Standards 4-01.4.A.
11. Provide a detail to show tree planting with root barrier adjacent to walkways.
12. The Native Plant Preservation monitor is responsible for an assessment of the condition of the site’s plants one year after the final inspection has been performed on the site. The monitor shall visit the site and prepare a report on plant status, including general plant condition, the identification of plants under stress and the appropriate method to relieve the stress, and recommendations for replacement of plants that are dead or dying. Dead or dying plants must be replaced with the same size plant at a one-to-one ratio of like genus and species. Copies of the report must be submitted to the site owner/developer and to PDSD. The owner must respond to the plant needs as outlined in the status report within six months of report submittal or within a shorter period if required to improve the health of stressed plants and prevent plant loss.
13. Please identify the project monitor prior to any grading activities, UDC 7.7.5. On-monitoring of all aspects of site clearing, grading, plant protection, preservation, salvage, and mitigation must be provided during project construction at the expense of the developer for all residential development that is over five acres and for all commercial and industrial development that is over one acre . The monitoring must be performed by an individual who is qualified in arid lands native plant resource identification and protection as specified in UDC Section 7.7.4.D, Professional Expertise. The monitor must provide periodic progress reports to the developer outlining the status of work accomplished and any problems encountered. A copy of these reports must be submitted to the PDSD for the project file.

08/17/2022 ROBERT SHERRY PLUMBING-COMMERCIAL REVIEW Reqs Change 1. While you cannot use an approved development plan to construct the on-site utilities, the development plan must include the sewer layout, including points of connection to existing sewers, proposed rim and invert elevations, and flow arrows at all manhole locations, length, and percent of grade between manholes, and the size of pipe. Reference: Section 2-06.4.9P, Administrative Manual, City of Tucson Unified Development Code. [Initial comment: A development plan is not to be used for construction of on-site utilities (e.g. water service to buildings, sewers, site lighting, electrical service to buildings, etc.). The construction of the on-site utilities may be included with the permit for constructing the building or as a separate permit.]
2. The FFE of each lot has been changed from the first submittal. The sewer layout, including points of connection to the proposed public sewers, proposed manhole rim and invert elevations must be shown to verify which lots require the installation of backwater valves. [Initial comment: Revise the site drawings to indicate which lots will require backwater valves because the rim elevation of the next upstream sanitary manhole is less than 12" below the proposed first floor elevations. Reference: Section 714.1, IPC 2018, as amended by the City of Tucson.]
