PLAN DIRECTION
ADOPTED PLAN (S): PLAN TUCSON, RINCON/SOUTHEAST SUBREGIONAL PLAN
PLAN AMENDMENT REQUIRED BASED ON CONCEPT PRESENTED (SEE NOTES BELOW)
0 YES X NO 0 TO BE CONFIRMED LATER
PLAN SUPPORT BASED ON CONCEPT PRESENTED (SEE NOTES BELOW):
0 YES 0 NO X WILL DEPEND ON DESIGN

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 Existing Neighborhoods building block of the Future Growth Scenario Map. Existing Neighborhoods are primarily developed and largely build-out residential neighborhoods and commercial districts in which minimal new development and redevelopment is expected in the next several decades. The goal is to maintain the character of these neighborhoods, while accommodating some new development and redevelopment and encouraging reinvestment and new services and amenities that contribute further to neighborhood stability.
LT28.1.20 Support an accessible open space system that connects open space in the urbanized area to the surrounding public natural areas.
LT28.1.21 Support an interconnected open space system.
LT28.1.22 Support an interconnected urban trail system through the city to meet the recreational needs of pedestrians, bicyclists, and equestrians.
LT28.1.12 Support conservation and efficient water use in an effort to minimize the need for new water sources.
LT28.1.17 Support methods to conserve and enhance habitat when development occurs.

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 #11 – Los Reales. The map detail shows the site being designated as “Heavy Industrial” when the site was still an active landfill.

Surrounding Zoning and Land Uses: Surrounding zoning is I-2 (Heavy Industrial), I-1 (Light Industrial), R-2 (Residential), R-1 (Residential), MH-1 (Mobile Home), to the north, County SH (Suburban Homestead) and City SH (Suburban Homestead) to the east, CI-2 (County Heavy Industrial) to the south, and CI-2 (County Heavy Industrial) to the west.

Analysis: The applicant is proposing an amendment to the Los Reales Planned Area Development (PAD-14) to incorporate additional parcels into the PAD and better align the goals and development regulations of the PAD with the vision of the Los Reales Sustainability Campus. According to UDC 3.5.5.2.a an amendment to a PAD may be initiated by the property owner, the owner’s agenda, or the Mayor and Council upon submittal of a written application to amend one or more of the PAD standards. UDC 3.5.5.2.c states a major change is one which (1) allows uses not otherwise permitted in the PAD or a section of the PAD; (2) varies or changes a PAD policy. The submitted amended land use plan shows four PAD districts. The PAD Districts include landfill operations district, community resources district, economic development district, and open space + recreation district. The previous districts shown in the current PAD include: waste disposal district, open space district, stormwater and ancillary uses district, reserved district, and community resource center district.

A plan amendment is not needed from Plan Tucson nor Rincon/Southeast Subregional Plan. A major change to the Los Reales PAD is required. Materials included with application submission should include: design compatibility report and preliminary development plan. There should be a redlined version of the PAD submitted to show changes with the amendment. A redlined version of the land use plan should also be included showing the changes between the old plan and the proposed amendment.
