The city of Phoenix requires the review of hillside plans for any project in a hillside development area, i.e. those properties having a 10 percent or greater slope. Staff reviews hillside plans for such items as height of the building over natural grade, lot coverage and area of disturbance outside of the roof.
Hillside plans are classified as civil plans and therefore are reviewed under the civil plan review process. Select from the hillside topics below for additional information.
