COMMENT: Fix the development package case number, TD-DEV-0426-00110 on sheets 2 thru 4. 2-06.4.7 - General Notes The following general notes are required. Additional notes specific to each plan are required where applicable. 2-06.4.7.A - Zoning and Land Use Notes 2-06.4.7.A.8 - For development package documents provide: 2-06.4.7.A.8.b - Percentage and area in square feet of building and accessory building coverage; 2. COMMENT: Provide percentage of total buildings and accessory buildings to the overall site. 2-06.4.7.A.8.c - Percentage of building, lot area, or vehicular use area expansion.

COMMENT: Provide percentage of vehicular use area to the overall site. 2-06.4.9 - Information on Proposed Development The following information on the proposed project shall be shown on the drawing or added as notes. 2-06.4.9.H.5.a - Show all motor vehicle off-street parking spaces provided, fully dimensioned. As a note, provide calculations on the number of spaces required (include the ratio used) and the number provided, including the number of spaces required and provided for the physically disabled. The drawing should indicate parking space locations for the physically disabled. A typical parking space detail shall be provided for both standard parking spaces and those for the physically disabled. For information on parking requirements for the physically disabled, refer to adopted building and accessibility codes of the City of Tucson. Design criteria for parking spaces and access are located in Section 7.4.6, Motor Vehicle Use Area Design Criteria, of the UDC. 4. COMMENT: The parking calculations provided for Wireless Communication are incorrect (currently shown at 1 stall per 1,000 square feet). Per TABLE 7.4.4-1, the parking ratio is 1 stall per 300 square feet of gross floor area. Adding the 912 square feet (accessory building) to the existing 420 square foot building results in a 1,332 sf of GFA. Therefore, 1,332 / 300 = 4 required parking stalls. Update Vehicular Parking Table, Notes, Drawings and Details to accommodate new spaces. 2-06.4.9.H.5.d - Show bicycle parking facilities fully dimensioned.

COMMENT: Per Section 7-01.0.0, provide a pedestrian connection from the existing building to the proposed building. MISCELLANEOUS: 8. COMMENT: The expansion verbiage is incorrect. Per UDC 7.4.3.E.2, If an expansion is 25% or greater or if a series of expansions cumulatively results in a 25% or greater expansion in floor area, the requirements of this section apply to the entire site. 912 sf – 420 sf = 492 sf; 492 sf / 420 sf = 1.17; 1.17 (100) = 117% expansion. Update building expansion related verbiage to reflect this expansion. 9.

| 08/13/2026 | External Reviewers - Tucson Airport Authority Standard | REVIEW COMPLETED | August 13, 2026 Planning and Development Services City of Tucson 201 North Stone Avenue Tucson, AZ. 85701 RE: TD-DEV-0426-00110, 1 st Submittal, Zayo Telecom On E. Macarthur Circle APN #132-16- 6490, 905 E. MacArthur Cir, Tucson, AZ. 85714, Received July 22, 2026 To whom this may concern, Thank you for the opportunity to comment on TD-DEV-0426-00110, 1 st Submittal, a development plan for a new commercial storage building at 905 E MacArthur Cir. This development is located in the N.W. quarter of the S.W. quarter of Section 31, Township 14S, Range 14E, of the Gila and Salt River Meridian. The development site occupies parcel number 132-16-6490, covers approximately 1.71 ± acres, and is zoned as Light Industrial Zone (I-1). The nearest major roadway intersection is East Fair Street and South Park Avenue, approximately 450 feet to the northeast of the subject development. This site does lie within the Tucson International Airport avigation easement requirements and public disclosure area, FAA traffic pattern airspace, and FAA Part 77 airspace. The Tucson Airport Authority does not object to the first submittal of this project and is not requiring a resubmittal. Although this project does not propose a change in plan designation or zoning the Tucson Airport Authority highly recommends the applicant add the following notes into the general notes of the revised development plan. This project is located approximately 2.5 miles northwest of Tucson International Airport and is within FAA traffic pattern airspace, an area which would be subject to aircraft overflight and noise due to being in close proximity to Tucson International Airport. The proposed notes would provide a means of assuring that future owners and tenants of the property are aware they are in proximity an airport and further assures the continued right of the City of Tucson, Tucson Airport Authority, and all persons lawfully utilizing the Tucson International Airport the right to utilize the airspace above or near the property. This would be accomplished through the property owner recording the Avigation Easement and providing the Airport Disclosure Statement to the new residents of all residential uses. The Tucson Airport Authority believes the proposed note helps to support the City of Tucson Airport Environs Overlay Zone and supports Plan Tucson – Land Use 26. 1. "That prior to the City's approval of the proposed development, the property owner must record the Avigation Easement that discloses the existence and operational characteristics of the Tucson International Airport to future owners or tenants of the property and further conveys the right to the public to lawfully use the airspace above the property. The Avigation Easement shall be recorded in a manner with the Pima County recorder which shall document it as having title liability. The content of such documents shall be according to the form and instructions provided.” The current property owner or person authorized to sign on behalf of the current property owner must complete, sign, and record the Avigation Easement. Please record the Avigation Easement with the Pima County Recorder’s Office. Then send a complete copy of the recorded easement document to Tucson Airport Authority by either email (send to srobidoux@flytucson.com) or to the mailing address provided below. Scott Robidoux Manager of Planning Tucson Airport Authority 7250 South Tucson Blvd, Suite 300 Tucson, AZ 85756” 2. Applicable to residential uses only “The property owner/developer/applicant must provide the Airport Disclosure Statement form, at time of sale, to the new property owners with all new unit purchases. In the event the development of any residential uses does not involve the sale of new units but is instead offering rental residential units to the public, the new tenant of the rental unit must be provided a copy of the Airport Disclosure Statement form. The intent of the Airport Disclosure Statement form is to educate and notify the new residents that they are living near an airport. The content of such documents shall be according to the form and instructions provided.” The property owner (for itself or its tenants) shall forward a signed copy of the Airport Disclosure Statement form to the Tucson Airport Authority within ten (10) days of signature, using the Scott Robidoux mailing address provided above. Please do not hesitate to contact me if you have any questions or concerns regarding this comment letter. I can be reached by email at srobidoux@flytucson.com or by telephone at 520- 573-4811. Respectfully, Scott Robidoux, C.M. Manager of Planning |
