Plat - 1st Submittal S07-154 The proposed sewer collection lines for the above-referenced project have been reviewed on behalf of the Pima County Department of Environmental Quality (PDEQ) and the Pima County Wastewater Management Department (PCWMD). This review letter may contain comments pertaining to the concerns of either Department. The following comments are offered for your use. This project will be tributary to the Roger Road Wastewater Treatment Facility via the North West Outfall. Requires Capacity Determination Letter from the owner of the private sewer to which connection is proposed. County capacity response exists : #07-145 (7/20/07). A Joint Use and Maintenance Agreement between this project and the owner of the private sewer you are proposing to connect into will be required before this office will be able to approve this development plan. Prior to signature or recordation, this agreement must be reviewed and approved by Ms. Ilene Deckard of the PCWMD Development Services Section. Please contact Ms. Deckard about this matter as soon as possible. She can be reached at 740-6544. All Sheets: Show the jurisdiction’s case number, S07-154, in or near the title block of each sheet. This case number should be shown larger and bolder than any associated cross-reference numbers. Sheet 1: Revise Sanitary Sewer General Note #2 to read as follows: THE ON-SITE SANITARY SEWERS WILL BE PRIVATE AND WILL BE CONSTRUCTED, OPERATED AND MAINTAINED ON A PRIVATE BASIS, AND IN ACCORDANCE WITH AN APPROVED OPERATION AND MAINTENANCE PLAN, IF REQUIRED. THE LOCATION AND METHOD OF CONNECTION TO AN EXISTING PUBLIC SANITARY SEWER IS SUBJECT TO REVIEW AND APPROVAL BY THE PIMA COUNTY WASTEWATER MANAGEMENT DEPARTMENT. Sheet 4: There are two proposed private manholes identified as #9. Please revise accordingly. Sheet 4: Show the size of pipe and flow direction for the existing private sewer shown on plan. Sheet 4: The invert shown for MH#7 does not allow for gravity flow of sewer. Please revise accordingly. Sheet 4: Show the sewer line invert in relation to drainage pipes wherever the two cross. Sheet 5: It will be necessary to demonstrate access method to existing private manhole which will be in the rear of proposed Lot 20 for maintenance and emergencies. This office will require a revised set of bluelines, and a response letter, addressing these comments. Additional comments may be made during the review of these documents. Pima County Code Title 13.20.030.A.2 requires that a wastewater review fee be paid for each submittal of the tentative or preliminary plat. The fee for the first submittal is $166 plus $50 per sheet. For the second submittal, the review fee is $50 per sheet. For all subsequent submittals, the review fee is $39 per sheet. The next submittal of this project will be the second (2nd) submittal. A check for the review fee of this submittal in the amount of $150.00 (made out to PIMA COUNTY TREASURER) must accompany the revised set of bluelines and response letter.

Zoning Review staff considers this submittal a change of use from the previous preliminary concept (C9-81-23) that was submitted and approved by Mayor and Council. Previous concept was for multifamily development (changes from original commercial concept) with proposed access approved by Mayor and Council to Grant Road and with connections to existing multi-family units to the south. Staff recommends that this tentative plat be sent back to rezoning staff for consultation. Approval of the change of use, which includes access points, may require approval by Mayor and Council.

Submit a photo with more detail. 2) Provide canopy trees in the vehicular use area such none are more than forty feet from a canopy tree. LUC 3.7.2.3 There is one space on the east side of the project that does not meet the requirements. 3) Revise the common area designation for the "open space" between lots 36 & 37 on sheet 4 of the tentative plat. It appears to be a parking lot, rather than open space. 4) Revise the landscape and development to clarify compliance with the screening requirements for common areas containing vehicular use areas plans at the southern boundary of the site. A 5' high masonry screen wall is required at the property line per LUC Table 3.7.2-I. 5) Per the previously approved plans, a landscape buffer is shown on both sides of Brichta Wash. The buffer is necessary and consistent with the provisions of TCC 26-8(3). 6) Reference the rezoning case number(s) on the plans.
