1-1 – Engineering Submittal Requirements 
This section of the Engineering Design Standards (EDS) is developed by the City of Buckeye 
(COB) to serve as a comprehensive set of criteria to standardize submittals for review. This 
guiding document is intended for engineers, developers, and contractors, providing clarity 
and uniformity in the submission and review process. 
The City Engineer is required, pursuant to Chapter 23, Article 23-2, of the City Code, to develop 
standards and details regarding improvements to be constructed within the city. The 
standards, design criteria, and policy set forth in this section were developed and 
recommended by the City Engineer pursuant to Chapter 23, Article 23-2, and adopted by the 
City Council in Resolution No. 04-26 on 1/20/2026. 
Implementation: The requirements of this section shall become effective in accordance with 
City Code. The standards and requirements of this section shall apply to all new plans, 
including plans seeking a new City Engineer’s signature or a re-approval from the City 
Engineer, submitted to the City following the effective date of the City Council’s adoption of 
the resolution approving the standards and requirements of this section. 
Modification Authority: The City Engineer or designee may approve variances to the 
requirements of this section. A Variance Process Guide and Variance Application can be 
found on the City website.
