The objectives of this report are to document the on-site and off-site hydrologic and hydraulic assessment of the site and its characteristics, quantifying existing conditions peak discharges, and define the limits of 100-year on-site floodplains.
Presents a plan that identifies management objectives, that articulates policies, and that lists specific actions that will be taken related to the management of Tucson Mountain Park. The Background Report (2007) provides a comprehensive summary of the existing conditions, resources, and features of the Park.
Fort Lowell was a supply base for the United States Army “Apache Campaigns” between 1873 and 1891. Following abandonment of the fort in 1891, settlers moved in and used some fort buildings as residences, or stripped the buildings of useful materials. By the 1930s, much of the fort had fallen into disrepair or had been sold off. Eventually, the City of Tucson acquired a large portion of the old fort which became what is today’s “Fort Lowell Park.” A 5.2 acre (“Adkins”) parcel of the former fort containing several original adobe buildings was still in private ownership, and the 2004 County bond election passed a proposal to acquire the land and preserve the historic resources.
The initial step in the Master Plan Update for Tucson International Airport is the identification of a series of goals and objectives that will establish guidelines for the planning process. These goals and objectives reflect the input of the Tucson Airport Authority, the Long Range Planning Council, the Airport’s Planning Advisory Committee, and the Airport’s Consultants. The Goals and Objectives will ultimately form the framework for evaluating the recommended long-range development plan and ensuring that the on-going development of the airport is consistent with the airport’s overall strategic objectives.
The purpose of this report is to present the conceptual study results and recommendations for potable water and reclaimed water infrastructure requirements in the HAMP planning area. A second report has already been prepared with study results and recommendations for wastewater facilities. The projected land use assumptions and population projections used in this potable and reclaimed water conceptual plan are consistent with Pima County's Plan.
This report is being submitted for the purpose of reducing the erosion setback limits. The information contained herein supports the claim that a safe reduction in the setback distance can occur.
Tucson Water's Valley View Reservoir site and Flecha Caida Ranch Estates #9 has experienced numerous drainage-related problems,including inundation, erosion, and limited access during the rainy season. A portion of the reservoir site and approximately one-half of the subdivision are both located in the 100-year flood plain.
This parcel has some houses already constructed, but most of the area is left undeveloped and can be classified as desert foothills. The objective of this report is to determine all of the flows generated by a 100-year storm in excess of 100 cfs and then map the flood-prone boundaries for the associated channels.
