| 08/07/2008 | INSP - FOLLOW UP CODE ENFORCE | Approved | August 7, 2008 Mr. Craig Gross CITY OF TUCSON DEVELOPMENT SERVICES DEPT. 201 N. Stone Ave. Tucson, AZ 85701 Via Electronic Mail RE: DC Auto - 340 E. Grant Rd. Dear Mr. Gross: As you are aware, DC Auto is currently before the City Court as a result of violations on the property. While I feel we have now addressed all the issues related to those violations, clearly the only permanent solution is to rezone portions of the lot. In a July 23rd memorandum to Juan Valdez (DNR), Bill Balak stated that a temporary fence separating the residential and commercial portions of the lot would be acceptable if a rezoning application was filed by July 31st. However, given the notification requirements set forth in the rezoning process, meeting said deadline was impossible. DSD staff feedback from both the DC Auto and Mariscos Chihuahua pre-application meetings indicated a strong preference for the zoning perimeter to be standardized across the southern boundary of both lots. As such, a final determination on the Mariscos rezoning will influence the eventual site design for DC Auto. To the best of my knowledge, the final Zoning Examiner’s hearing on Mariscos will take place on August 14th. As such, we will hopefully have a more concrete idea of an appropriate zoning line by August 21st. Given the statutory notification requirements and waiting periods, I anticipate the earliest a formal rezoning application for the DC Auto property could be filed would be September 30th. The R2 zoning line crosses the lot through the rear of the existing structure. The building’s second story contains a conforming residential use with a single exterior access point on the southern face of the building. As such, we request that the temporary fence be allowed to remain at its current location permitting access and parking for the residential unit. An alternative would be moving the temporary fence to the zoning line, allowing a gate in the fence and vehicle access to the residential unit from Sahuaro Street without the requirement for a curb cut. The property has a long history of commercial uses including more than six different used car lots. It is our hope that we can reach a temporary accommodation that would allow DC Auto to remain commercially viable while the rezoning case proceeds. Thank you for your consideration in this matter. Sincerely, Ben Buehler-Garcia, RONIN Business Services On behalf of DC Auto Bbg; fh Cc: Juan Valdez George Holguin Dan Cox Bill Balak |
