The City of Phoenix requires the review of landscape plans for commercial, industrial and subdivision projects. Plans are checked for code compliance and health and safety issues. The landscape reviewer checks the quantities, sizes and varieties of plant material as well as the placement of that material. The plans are coordinated with the Parks and Recreation Department when parks issues affect the project.
Landscape plans are classified as civil plans and therefore are reviewed under the civil plan review process. Select from the landscape topics below for additional information.
