The purpose of this checklist is to offer comments on plan design for Hillside lots that require Revegetation Plans to be
approved by the city of Phoenix.
The source of the Revegetation Plan design is the city of Phoenix Zoning Ordinance Chapters 5 and 7, Subdivision
Ordinance Chapter 32-32, and city of Phoenix Supplement to Maricopa Association of Governments (MAG) Uniform
Standard Specifications.
This checklist serves to minimize redline comments on the check prints and to maintain consistency among plan
reviewers on plans for Revegetation. Plan approval and issuing permits depend on compliance with the comments
made on the check prints and this checklist. The Landscape Architect/Designer shall satisfy themselves of the
completeness and accuracy of the design.
Plan review correction cycles and/or approvals are valid for 180 days. Additional review fees (see Fee Schedule –
Phoenix City Code, Chapter 9, Appendix A.2) shall be charged for extensions/reinstatements to update expired plan
reviews.
A completed checklist must be attached to the Revegetation plans when submitted for first review. The following
Certification Statement must be signed by the Hillside/Landscape plan designer stating that all applicable requirements
on this checklist have been met:
