Pima County Off-Street Parking Development Standards

Code mandates that all parking canopy structures must be constructed with a heat reflective roofing material. Where used, photo voltaic cells or other solar technology may substitute for the heat reflective roofing material.

Code also mandates that a minimum of ten percent of the gross parking area shall be devoted to amenity landscaping and required landscape planters and canopy trees to maximize the shading of paved surfaces. When single parking rows occur, canopy trees shall be placed every four un-shaded parking stalls. When double aisles of parking occur, canopy trees shall be placed every eight un-shaded parking stalls.
