| Entitlements | REVIEW COMPLETED | REZONING/SPECIAL EXCEPTION PRESUBMITTAL PREAPPLICATION REVIEW DATE: 1/24/24 REVIEWED BY: Gabriel Sleighter, Planner CASE NUMBER: TP-PRE-0124-00011 Rezoning – 5050 E Speedway Blvd PROJECT ADDRESSES: 5050 E Speedway Blvd PARCEL NUMBERS: 127-04-0520, 127-04-0530 EXISTING ZONING: C-2, R2 EXISTING USE: Bar, Food Truck, Parking PROPOSED ZONING: C-2 PROPOSED USE: Food Service / Automobile Service and Repair, Major PROJECT DESCRIPTION & LOCATION: The applicant is requesting a rezoning of an approximately 0.69-acre site currently split across two parcels. The parcels are located at 5050 E Speedway Boulevard, at the southwest corner of Speedway Blvd and Rosemont Blvd. The site is most recently occupied by a bar and a food truck, with the southern two-thirds of the site used for parking. The applicant has presented three concept site plans for either a Food Service use with drive-thru lanes, or an Automotive Service and Repair facility. The food service concept is about 2250 square feet, and the automotive service concepts are 4830 or 4500 square feet. All concepts are a single building, approximately 20 feet in height. The proposed consolidation of two parcels and a rezoning to designate the entire site as R-2 zoning allows for marketing the site to a specific user. APPLICANT NAME: Keri Silvyn E-MAIL: ksilvyn@lslawaz.com PLAN DIRECTION ADOPTED PLAN (S): PLAN TUCSON, THE MAJOR STREETS AND ROUTES OVERLAY, THE BROADWAY-CRAYCOFT AREA PLAN PLAN AMENDMENT REQUIRED BASED ON CONCEPT PRESENTED (SEE NOTES BELOW) 0 YES 1 NO X TO BE CONFIRMED LATER PLAN SUPPORT BASED ON CONCEPT PRESENTED (SEE NOTES BELOW): 1 YES 0 NO X WILL DEPEND ON DESIGN Applicable Plan Policies: Plan Tucson contains a variety of elements that are categories in four focus areas, including the Social Environment, the Economic Environment, the Natural Environment, and the Built Environment. Each focus area contains specific goals, and each element contains specific policies. The Future Growth Scenario Map illustrates different building blocks within the city that have specific policies to promote future growth opportunities. The proposed development lies within the Business Centers building block of the Future Growth Scenario Map. LT28.4.1 Support development in or adjacent to existing regional and community-level activity centers that will: d. Encourage infilling vacant or underutilized parcels adjacent to existing regional and community-level activity centers. LT28.4.6 Support environmentally sensitive design that protects the integrity of existing neighborhoods, complements adjacent land uses, and enhances the overall function and visual quality of the street, adjacent properties, and the community. LT.28.4.8 Protect established residential neighborhoods by supporting compatible development, which may include other residential, mixed-use infill and appropriate nonresidential uses. Broadway Craycroft Area Plan (BCAP) is intended to provide guidelines for future development, to protect existing development, and to create a sense of community within established neighborhoods. The BCAP land use map identifies the project site as “possible commercial consolidation” for the southern portion of the site currently zoned R-2. Plan policies also provide guidance for buffering existing residential use from commercial development. Major Streets and Routes Overlay: Speedway Boulevard is a designated Arterial, and Rosemont Boulevard is a designated Collector street per the MS&R overlay. Surrounding Zoning and Land Uses: North: Speedway Boulevard, C-2 opposite – retail land use. East: C-2, R-2 – Retail, parking land use South: R-2 – Residential land use West: C-2, R-2 – Automotive sales adjacent to Speedway, Residential adjacent to 1st Ave. Analysis: The proposal to consolidate the parcels and apply C-2 zoning to the entire site is consistent with Plan Tucson and the Broadway-Craycroft Area Plan. This underutilized site adjacent to an arterial road is a good candidate for commercial consolidation per the BCAP. The proposed site plans also incorporate setbacks from residential use compliant with the UDC, providing up to a 30-foot landscaped buffer with the residential property to the west. The food service concept locates drive-thru speakers to the east half of the site oriented away from the adjacent residential. The second auto shop proposal orients bay doors east towards Rosemont Blvd and the commercial uses across the street. This auto shop proposal also offers a 30-foot sideyard setback with the adjacent residential. These two site concepts are preferred to the remaining auto shop site concept. The final submittal should reflect all review team feedback and the comments received during the neighborhood meeting. The proposed rezoning is consistent with both Plan Tucson and Broadway-Craycroft Area Plan. Staff approval is dependent on the final design of the proposed project and community input. A plan amendment cannot be determined at this time. ADDITIONAL NOTES: |

The comments provided are preliminary and are not to be assumed as a complete review of the proposal. During the Development Package review process, a full review will be made by Landscape/NPPO to assure compliance with the applicable UDC development criteria and Technical Standards. COMMENTS: 1. Due to the change of zoning, full code compliance may be required across site on this project. 2. There must be an NPPO waiver. An NPPO is required per UDC 7.7.3-B. A Native Plant Preservation Plan, Section 7.7.4, is required to be submitted or approved or a request for an exception from the Native Plant Preservation requirements approved in accordance with Sections 7.7.3.D.3 & .4 of the UDC and Admin. Manual Section 2-11.0.0 prior to Grading Plan approval. 3. A landscape plan is required per 7.6.2.B.1-b. The Unified Development Code (UDC) requires all new development or an expansion of greater than 25% of an existing development to submit a landscape plan, UDC 7.6.2. Preparation of the landscape plan shall adhere to UDC 7.6.4 and Administrative Manual 2-10. 4. Ensure the required number of trees is in all vehicular parking areas (1 tree: 4 parking spaces) per UDC 7.6.4.B.1. Trees are to be distributed evenly throughout the parking area, UDC 7.6.4.1.B.1, UDC Technical Standards Manual 5-01-.3.2 and UDC 7.6.4.B.1.a. 5. There will need to be a street landscape border on E Speedway Bl & N Rosemont Bl per UDC 7.6.4.C-2 and Table 7.6.4-1. See UDC 7.6.4.C for landscape border requirements. 6. There will need to be a interior landscape border on the west side of the site where it abuts the existing residential property per UDC 7.6.4.C-2 and Table 7.6.4-1.
