A. The Environmental Resource Report may be provided as individual illustrations and/or in report form, which may include photographs, maps, and illustrations;
B. Maps must include a legend and north arrow;
C. Aerial photographs must be no more than two years old, indicate the flight date, a north arrow, and the project site boundaries; and,
D. Illustrations must:
1. Include a legend and north arrow;
2. Be fully dimensioned;
3. Be drawn to an appropriate scale (one inch equals 40 feet is recommended); and,
4. Be on a 24-inch by 36-inch sheet folded to the standard eight and one-half inch by 11-inch format.
The ERR shall include the following:
A. General
1. A table of contents; and,
2. A location map showing the project site within the boundaries of the plan area or a public preserve is required.
B. Topography/Hydrology Map
1. Topography may be shown with a one- or two-foot contour map or an aerial photo with a one- or two-foot contour overlay.
2. On-site predevelopment hydrologic characteristics should be mapped including any 100- year floodplains with discharge of 50 cfs or greater and peak discharges entering or leaving the site for 100-year events.
3. If significant natural features, vegetation, or floodplain areas are proposed to be encroached upon, state why the encroachment could not be avoided and what mitigation measures will be taken.
C. Vegetation and Wildlife Map
1. Delineate any habitat type noted on the Critical and Sensitive Biological Communities (CSBC) Map including riparian and significant nonriparian habitat. Describe the densities of any of these communities or associations.
2. Include a written statement from the Arizona Game and Fish Department’s regional office regarding:

D. Conceptual Grading Plan
1. Indicate all areas proposed for grading;
2. Note all proposed changes in elevations within the project boundary due to grading by providing predevelopment and post-development spot elevations. Indicate maximum grade differential from adjacent properties at project boundaries. Differential grading information is to be provided in accordance with the Differential Grading Ordinance;
3. Indicate approximately how much surface area of the project site will be graded as a result of the proposed development; and,
4. Show all changes to drainageways including upstream and downstream conditions.
E. Composite Map
1. The purpose of the composite map is to identify where development is appropriate and where it inappropriate due to site constraints;
2. The composite map is prepared based on the information obtained from the PDP and the above mentioned requirements;
3. The proposed project as shown on the PDP should reflect the findings of the composite map; and,
4. Include the following elements as applicable on the composite map:
a. Gateway or scenic routes;
b. Drainageways to be left in a natural state;
c. Historical or archaeological features;
d. Heavily disturbed soils;
e. Landfills;
f. Protected peaks/ridges;
g. Sloped areas in excess of 15%;
h. Significant vegetative communities and/or wildlife habitat corridors;
i. Trails and trail access points; and,
j. Adjacent land uses.
This section provides the application submittal requirements for the Planned Area Development (PAD) Rezoning provided in Section 3.5.6 of the Unified Development Code (UDC).
Prior to formal submittal of the PAD for rezoning, the City Development Review Committee (CDRC) must conduct a pre-review of the PAD application and report. The pre-review only is conducted in accordance with Section 3-01.0.0, CDRC Procedure. The applicant shall provide the following for pre-review:
A. Application Form. A completed rezoning application signed by the property owner or authorized designee;
C. Fees. One-half of the total fees in accordance with Section 4-01.1.0, Development Review Fee Schedule.
PAD rezoning application packets are available from the PDSD Department. Submit applications and accompanying materials to PDSD. Incomplete or inaccurate applications will not be accepted, nor will any application in which the preapplication conference or neighborhood meeting requirements have not been met. The types of documents and the specific number of copies required of each document are provided in the rezoning application packet.
The following documents and information shall be submitted upon application.
A. Application Form. A completed rezoning application signed by the property owner or authorized designee;
B. Neighborhood Meeting Information. Written proof of the offer to meet with the surrounding property owners and other applicable parties in accordance with Section 3.2.2 of the UDC must be submitted with the application. Required documentation includes copies of the meeting notification letter, the mailing list provided to the applicant by the city, the meeting attendance sheet, and the minutes of the meeting. The minutes should include any concerns raised at the meeting and the applicant’s response to them, if any;
D. Fees. The balance of the total fees (one-half of the fees was due at the time of pre-review) in accordance with Section 4-01.1.0, Development Review Fee Schedule.
