APPLICANT NAME: Bill Mackey, Worker Inc PHONE: (520) 664-4847 E-MAIL: BILL@WORKERINCORPORATED.COM Plan Amendment : TO BE CONFIRMED LATER PLAN SUPPORT BASED ON CONCEPT PRESENTED (SEE NOTES BELOW): -WILL DEPEND ON DESIGN -DESIGN COMPATIBILITY + COMMUNITY INPUT PLAN DIRECTION ADOPTED PLAN(S): Plan Tucson , Greater South Park Plan PLAN AMENDMENT NO, ADDITIONAL INFO REQUIRED (SEE NOTES BELOW) APPLICABLE PLAN POLICIES: Plan Tucson The site of the proposed rezoning is covered by Plan Tucson. Plan Tucson: The Plan Tucson 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 Mixed-Use Center building block of the Future Growth Scenario Map. Mixed-Use Center combines a variety of housing options, retail, services, office, and public gathering places, located close to each other, providing occupants of the center and the residents and workers in the surrounding neighborhoods with local access to goods and services. Public transit, bicycles, and walking will get priority in these areas although cars will still play an important role. Existing examples in Tucson include Williams Centre, Gateway Centre, and the Bridges. The following plan policies support industrial infill: • LT28.1.11 Support the retention and expansion of existing business. • LT28.5.2 Consider redevelopment, including the demolition of substandard structures, which encourages the assemblage of larger parcels for activity center or node development. • LT28.5.8 Support infill and redevelopment projects that reflect sensitivity to site and neighborhood conditions and adhere to relevant site and architectural design guidelines. • LT28.5.9 Protect established residential neighborhoods by supporting compatible development, which may include other residential, mixed-use infill and appropriate nonresidential uses. Greater South Park Plan The Greater South Park Plan (GSPP) is intended to guide future development, while protecting and improving existing neighborhoods. The proposal is located within Subarea 2 of the GSPP. Subarea 2 Existing Conditions: Paralleling the Southern Pacific Railroad and north of 22nd Street and east of Park Avenue, Subarea 2 contains a mixture of uses and zones. Although the majority of land uses are commercial and/or industrial, there also exists a pocket of residentially used and zoned land in the subarea. With the Kino Boulevard alignment transecting this area and the recent rezoning requests and approvals for commercial and industrial uses, this subarea appears to be transitioning to a more commercially and industrially used area. Policies and Implementation Measures: Allow additional commercial and light industrial uses to develop in this subarea. Compatibility of these more intensive uses with existing residential uses should be ensured by utilizing the following design elements such as restricted hours of operation, screened or covered storage, noise buffers, additional landscaping, and special air pollution controls. The GSPP further describes Industrially used land accounts for approximately 24 percent of the total plan area. Of this, the majority (77 percent) of industrially used land is located north of 22nd Street. Tucson’s continuing growth, the desire of a growing segment of industry to locate in the southwest, and the projected growth of high technology industries have increased the demand for additional industrial sites within the Tucson region. Since many high technology industries are clean industries, the location of industrial employment in close proximity to residential and commercial areas is possible while still maintaining the quality of these areas. The following policies and implementation measures provide for balanced development, employment opportunities, and overall compatibility of industrial uses with surrounding uses in the plan area. l. Promote industrial developments based on criteria as approved in the General Plan and adopted Industrial Sites Study Phase II Policies by requiring: A. proximity to major streets and transportation corridors; B. adequate buffer areas to protect adjacent uses; C. prohibition of industrial traffic through residential areas; and D. access to existing or planned public transit routes. SURROUNDING ZONING AND USES: To the west and south, the subject site is abutted by R-2 Residential. To the north and east, the subject site is abutted by I-1 Industrial zoning. Numerous adjacent industrial and residential lots are vacant. ANALYSIS: The proposed development is located within subarea 2 of the Greater South Park Plan and has aligned with the trends identified in that neighborhood plan with the area transitioning to a more commercially and industrially used area. Several rezoning has occurred since the 1980’s (C9-87-61, C9-08-11, C9-83-42, C9-84-76)) and continue to transition the existing residential areas into industrial areas. Numerous parcels within the greater area are vacant and may present opportunities for both an increase in industrial and lot consolidation. Additionally, per the neighborhood plan, special attention to convey the hours of operation, screened or covered storage, noise buffers, additional landscaping, and special air pollution controls at the neighborhood meeting. A plan amendment will not be required but more design consideration with a preliminary development plan (PDP) indicating design capability with both land use specific standards and plan policies as outlined above will be required. Additionally, a neighborhood meeting to create community dialogue with the adjacent neighbors and ward office will be required. A formal submittal of the application must be within 60 days of the neighborhood meeting. Please reach out to the applicable Ward office before the neighborhood meeting. This zoning may be effectuated via a Development Package. ADDITIONAL PLAN POLICIES TO CONSIDER: None |
