In order to facilitate a shorter back check time, please provide two sets of updated plans and calculations with a written response to each of the notated items indicating action taken. Do not cloud the changes made for comment revisions. SCOPE OF REVIEW: The scope of this plan review covers architectural, plumbing, mechanical, energy conservation and electrical. All code references are to the 2012 International Residential Code and 2012 International Energy Conservation Code. All features were checked only to the extent allowed by the submittals provided. All portions of this project are assumed to meet or will meet other departmental requirements, conditions and concerns before permit approval. GENERAL COMMENTS: 1. A dwelling unit providing complete independent living facilities requires compliance with design ordinances for handicap provisions, solar water, photo-voltaic and gray water preparations. Design Ordinances adopted by the City of Tucson. 2. Show compliance with the Inclusive Home Design Ordinance adopted by the City of Tucson Ordinance #10463 on 10/16/2007. Notate accessible route, minimum door width, changes in floor elevation, door hardware, electrical outlet reach range, grab bar reinforcement, etc. 3. All SFR and Duplex plans submitted after March 1, 2009 require a solar water system, or future installation preparation City of Tucson Ordinance #10549 with one of the following provisions: ½"control conduit and two ¾" copper piping for water with rooftop termination; straight 3" capped sleeve; or an accessible attic (clear path 30" wide x 30" high) over the water heater. Show appropriate notation. 4. All SFR and Duplex plans submitted after July 1, 2009 require a solar photo-voltaic system, or future installation preparation City of Tucson Ordinance #10549 with the following provisions: 1. A 4 square feet area for (meter, disconnect & inverter) equipment adjacent to the electrical service panel or near the proposed collector panel space. 2. The best roof space available for accommodating PV solar collector panels with capacity for collector dead loading (typically 4 lbs/SF). 3. A minimum 3,800 volt-ampere PV electrical load entry on the Service Load Calculation (Show as a continuous load of 15.8 A). 4. An Electrical Panel Schedule with a 240 volt circuit breaker space labeled "reserved for Photo Voltaic". See electrical comments. 5. All construction drawings submitted after June 1, 2010 for one- or two-family dwellings must provide gray water utilization or preparation, Ordinance #10579/11089 revised July 9, 2013. Include two clothes washer standpipes, one with an above grade stub-out, and one to the building drain; also provide gray drain-line discharge of all second story bathing fixtures through an exterior-wall drop for future gravity distribution. Include an aliened purple colored 2" vertical drop to a cleanout cap 2' above grade. FOUNDATION PLANS: 1. Indicate the direction of slope for the garage slab, R309.1. 2. Notate the grade away from foundations with a minimum 6" fall within the first 10', R401.3. FLOOR PLANS: 1.

Add a double breaker space for future Photo Voltaic on the panel schedule. 2. Revise the electrical load calculation showing a minimum 3,800 volt-ampere or 16 A continuous load entry for future Photo Voltaic equipment. 3. Show illumination and switching for stairways, R303.7. 4. Protect all interior 15A & 20A proposed outlets (except garage, kitchen, and bathrooms) including receptacles, lights and smoke detectors with combination type arc-fault circuit interrupters, E3902.12. 5. Provide notation requiring tamper resistant receptacles for 125 volt, 15A and 20A receptacles, R4002.14. 6. Specify high-efficacy lamps for at least 75% of all lighting fixtures, N1104.1. OUTDOOR LIGHTING CODE 1. Update the Outdoor Lighting Calculation; show the unshielded limit for area E3 with 11,000 lumens per acre. This was changed with the latest code addition. INTERNATIONAL ENERGY CONSERVATION CODE: 1. Show the solar heat gain coefficient SHGC minimum value of 0.25 for windows, N1102.1.
