Applicable Plan Policies:
Plan Tucson (PT) 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. Business centers are major commercial or employment districts that act as major drivers of Tucson’s economy. These centers generally contain corporate or multiple-use office, industrial, or retail uses. Relevant policies include:

LT28.4.4 Support a mix of commercial, residential, office, governmental, and other service activities at all major employment 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.

LT28.4.7 Support infill and redevelopment projects that reflect sensitivity to site and neighborhood conditions and adhere to relevant site and architectural design guidelines.

LT28.4.8 Protect established residential neighborhoods by supporting compatible development, which may include other residential, mixed-use infill and appropriate nonresidential uses.

LT28.4.9 Consider residential development with densities that complement the size and intensity of the center or node, while providing transitions to lower density residential uses. For example, high-and medium-density development can support and reinvigorate regional activity centers, while appropriate medium- and low-density infill can complement the scale and character of neighborhood activity nodes.

The Rincon/Southeast Subregional Plan (RSSP) was developed to establish future land use and development direction for areas that are adjacent to the City and had potential for future City annexation. The site is within the RSSP’s Map Detail #9 – Wilmot/I-10. The map detail shows the site being within the ‘Multifunctional Corridor” planned land use areas. Multifunctional Corridors are designated areas for the integrated development of complementary uses along major transportation corridors – which includes residential and commercials uses.

Surrounding Zoning and Land Uses: Surrounding zoning is PAD-7 to the north, and west with residential and vacant uses and I-2 (Heavy Industrial) to the east and south with industrial uses.

Analysis: The applicant is proposing a 243 single-story casita village with 1-, 2-, and 3 Bedroom layout plans, gas station with 5,000 SF convenience store and a 14-pump canopy, and a 5,000 SF drive thru restaurant. The site is located at 6930 E Camino Boleadoras, at the southwest corner of E Camino Boleadoras and Kolb Road and is within the La Estancia PAD. The site is within Development Area 18 as “Neighborhood Commercial.” The applicant is proposing a major amendment to the La Estancia Planned Area Development to reduce the required setbacks between differing land uses. The applicant is proposing a residential use in Development Area 18 which is next to an I-2 (Heavy Industrial) Zone. Per the La Estancia PAD, Land Use Designations 4. High Density Residential (HDR) c) Residential Development Standards 4. States: No residential development will be permitted within 280 feet of any adjacent I-2 zone or use.

Plan Tucson supports a mix of commercial, residential, office, governmental, and other service activities at all major employment centers and supports 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. The Rincon/Southeast Subregional Plan shows the site as a multifunctional corridor which are areas designated for integrated development of complementary uses along major transportation corridors.

The request for the development standard, no residential development will be permitted within 280 feet of any adjacent I-2 zone or use., is a major change to the La Estancia PAD. Applicant will have to include additional buffering along the property line that is adjacent to the I-2 (Heavy Industrial) zone / Industrial uses. Buffering should include additional landscaping, including trees, as well as a masonry wall to ensure that there is proper separation between the residential and industrial uses. The preliminary concept for the site shows a 10-foot landscape buffer around the east and south perimeters of the site.

The preliminary concept for the site shows that the site’s property line is approximately 65-feet to nearest building in the adjacent I-2 site. According to UDC 6.3.3.I: For the purposes of determining the applicable perimeter yard standard, the following are considered residential zones: OS, IR, RH, SR, SH, RX-1, RX-2, R-1, R-2, R-3, MH-1, MH-2, MU, PAD, and PCD. According to UDC 6.3-5.A: Dimensional Standards for the P-I, I-1, and I-2 zones, the perimeter yard setback for a nonresidential use next to a residential zone is 2 times the height of the building wall.

A plan amendment is not needed from Plan Tucson nor Rincon/Southeast Subregional Plan. A major change to the La Estancia PAD is required. Materials included with application submission should include: design compatibility report and preliminary development plan. Throughout the major change process, the applicant should demonstrate compliance with all the La Estancia PAD Objectives as well as specifically, #4: Utilize state of the art building techniques and design to conserve energy, water and non-renewable resources.
